There Was Little Blind Voting.

The Coconino Sun says:
 "Our slogans, vote no amendments when in doubt and fewer better laws were taken up all the state and have undoubtedly done much good to the common people It is true the people awaken to the fact that law is justice and that system of initiating laws by slipping in a law in their interest alone. The under standing does at all, consequently a few interested people pass law directly against the common public It is gratifying to note that have at least accomplished this much for the good of the people and hope it will be remembered and put good at every election. don't much but ideas do-and they live longer
 The Republican, by the way, originated the slogan least, it appears have been acted upon by a majority of the voters, since all but three four of the eighteen propositions submitted were de- feated. In the state at large, probably not more than half of the propositions adopted Some the latter doubtless should have been defeated but after all that is matter opinion which voter has much right to express another.
 We suppose that majority of the voters voted understandingly, or, they thought, understand answered the argument against popular legislation, that people apt to always yes" and adopt every new fad.

A CIeansinq of California.

Beside its reaffrmaton of it's faith in progressive principles and progressive methods. California tabooed the prize fighting at the recent cleo ton If nothing else had been accomplished that alone would have warranted the trouble and ex- pense of holding the election It has been mat ter of wonder that Los Angeles, the particular sink of iniquity in this respect long stood for the disgrace which the statutes permitted. The prize fights which took place there mostly incon- sequential affairs between featherweghts, bantam weights and lightweghts. It would not have been demorazing if and then heavyweight fight in which there would have been a great though unwarranted interest, had been staged.
 But the contests which took place at Los Angeles encouraged by the newspapers were among under sized boys, many of them with no skill all Every young loafer might reasonably aspire to at least some degree of local prominence in the ring and to seeing his picture in the sporting columns of the newspapers Also as a sparring partner a par tcipant in a preliminary" he might be able to eat with greater less regularity The newspapers could not have been in business if they had been encouraging rooster fighting.
 For several years Los Angeles has been overrun with little pugs to the number of which there were constant additions. They stopped over into the smaller where they not barred by local regulations and they even invaded the towns Arizona. These diminutive fighters were often at tended by young girls tough themselves, that the average of morals in the class whence they held down pretty low.
 Meanwhile the newspapers of Los Angeles magni lied these battles" and gave as much space to them for days before and the day after the sporting columns the metropolitan daily bestow upon international yacht or tennis tourna- ment

California's s Triumph.

The modesty as well as the greatness of Governor Hiram Johnson of Califor- nia, is eXemplified in the following statement, made through the California Outlook regarding victory which he does not regard as q personal triumph, but triumph of good government:
 The response of California to the work done in the last four years has been given in no uncertain terms. The victory is in no sense personal. It is the final triumph for popular rule, hu- manitarian legislation and the rcgula- ton by tine state of great corporations
 The men and women who have con- scientiously and patriotically striven in the last four years, the many who con tributed to the achievements and ac- Complishments that have placed Cali fornia in the forefront of all the states, have recompensc for all their efforts and justification of their great work
 As one of these, with heart over flowing with gratitude I thank the people of California who have so glor- iously and generously given us such an overwhelming victory

THE PAPERS AND THE ELECTION

Chicago Evening PosD
 It may he said for the conservative papers which take the election results as final evidence of the country's un- willingness to support the progressive party that they speak with a good temper and a moderation which is of great assistance in making their words good Bitter personal enemies of Colonel Roosevelt take their vicious filings at him, of course. But beyond this small circle republican newspapers show no disposition to rake up the past or to insult the voters who have re- turned to their party There is even general implication of regret that such controversial figures as Pcnrose and Mckinley have come back into power On the progressive side we note a corresponding inclination not to start a vindictive complaint against the re- publicans who have been successful. None of the big progressive papers like the Philadelphia North American or the Kansas City Star, admits that the election has ended the progressive 1 party All of them say that the move ment itself will go on, but there is none of the heated partisanship that marked the campaign.
 | William Allen White, the Kansas 1 philosopher of progressvism, takes the broad human view point of the whole affair in saying:
 It's sad day for the Cromwellian type of politics. Exit the Roundheads ! for a time; welcome the Cavaliers un- der the new Charles.
 The war has taken the popular at tention from those things which inter ested them two years ago. Or maybe it's net the war. Maybe public atten- tion is like a child's, and 1t grows wea- ry under iong strain. Maybe the folks are just tired of Cleon being so ever lastinGly good.
 i Its hard to tell, but even at that it's good old world. The curve of prog ress sometimes defects itself from the straight line, but always it brings up forward of the place it was yesterday. ' | The coming week will determine more certainly what the progressive i party, as party, is going to do in the | face of the elections In the meantime it is encouraging from all view points to note that good temper and an in jclination to mutual forgiveness mark both the new party and the old party | from which it was, born.

GERMANY AND THE MONROE
 DOCTRINE.

What the attitude of Germany would be toward the Monroe doctrine if the war should end in her favor is at present an academic question. The promise that she will respect it will not make a very deep impression just now. Recent disregard of treaties as scraps of paper" suggest that the Test American policy is extremely watchful waiting The assurance of Count von Bernstoff and Dr. Dernburg do not, in fact, commit the German government. They are simply part of the program of convincing us of the overpowering respect and affection of Berlin
 Every one who has followed the course of events in South America, who understands the strength of the Ger man desire for colonial expansion. knows perfectly well that the Monroe doctrine has been for years source of irritation to the German govern ment. Is it not a fair conviction that, if the allies are beaten and that gov ernment has free hand, the propaga- ton of German 'kultur' will not be confined to the other side of the At lantic? In forecasting the consequent ces of such an event. it will be well not to forget certain episodes in Samoa and the Philippines. The lady doth protest too much.

Our Departing Guests.

The fair is over; our visitors of the week are their way home except those who are reluctant to leave the of much pleasure and joyment during the past six days The week had unpromsing beginning. We had not quite re- covered from the throes of a peculiarly exciting campaign in which good deal of bitterness had been engendered Then the cluttering up of tho sky with rain clouds, but in this favored regon at this time of the year. rain clouds cannot hover for long at time. Whatever interference they caused with the fair has been more than offset by the benefits they have showered upon the culti- vated lands, and ranges and when they passed away they left clarity of the atmosphere and d freshness of the ground that made a setting for the glorious close of the fair, one ever held in Arizona. In the meantime, Arizona has been increasing in riches. We estimate the unearned increment while we have been enjoying ourselves
 It is possible that when the balance has been struck it will turn that the receipts, by reason of the rain for two days will be somewhat less than the commission has counted upon but the fair is public institution like the posoffce, not necessarily revenue producing institution, but d public benefit, whose results showered in var ious ways
 It has shown how far have travelled with in the past year and encourages to further prog ress We all become teachers and disciples of . another that all learn with greater rapidity.
 Not the least of ali the benefits brought by the fair is the increase of friendship of each section of the state for every other section In conse- quence of the fair Arzpnians know each other better. Arizona becomes of and less of collection of less isolated sections each with interests in which the people of other sections have interest
 We trust that all who have been our guests this year will be guests year. Meanwhile, good bye and good luck. May God be with you till we meet again.
