REASONSFOR UNHAPPINESS

What are the chief reasons for
unhappiness? Here are ten which
a prominent railroad man found in
clipping taken from an English
newspaper and handed me as worth
considering:
To attempt to set up your own
standard of right and wrong and
expect everybody to conform to it.
To try to measure the enjoyment
of others by your own.
To expect uniformity of opinions
in This world.
TO look for judgment and expert
ence in youth.
70 endeavor to mould all disposi-
tions alike.
Not to yield in unimportant trifies.
To look for perfection in our ac.
tions.
To worry ourselves and others
about what cannot be remedied.
Not to help everybody wherever,
however and whenever we can.
TO consider anything impossible
that we cannot ourselves perform.
TO believe only what our infinite
minds can grasp.
Not to make allowances for the
weaknesses of others.
TO estimate people by some out
side quality, for it is that within
which makes the man.
If more public men and aspiring
leaders could only appreciate the
wisdom of philosophy handed down
in various forms through the ages,
there might be fewer discontented
and unhappy souls standing in public
places.

COCHISE FlRST ON BABIES

Cochise county beat Maricopa for
the first six months of the year 1913
in the matter of additions to the
population that are accorded to the
visits of the stOrk. Cochise county
showed 553 birth against 428 shown
by Maricopa, and is therefore the
banner baby county until the re
ports for the entire are footed up,
when Maricopa will have a chance
to catch up and probably pass the
big square county Of the southwest.
During the first six months OF
the past year there were 2067 babies
born in the state. March was the
banner month with 352, while the
other months were: January, 1876;
February 286; April, 3l3; May, 297,
and June, 293. June was the biggest
in Maricopa county when IS babies
were born. In Cochise May was the
banner month, 60. Greenlee county,
with TIA babies for the six months
was the third in the list of the
counties.

INDUSTRIAL JUSTICE

Henry Ford's gigantic plan for an
eiqht-hour day and a minimum wage
OF S. per day has been given the
notice it deserves, but our journalists
miss one of the more important
economic points of it. The facts
seem to be that the plant has been
built out Of earnings and that no
securities have been sold 10 the
public. The capital stock is 2,000,-
600 and there are no bonds. How
foolish and wrong this must appear

tor" when he notes that last years )
profits were about S35. 900, 900! On

$4OO, 100000. They would issue and

panies, that is so familiar a sight in
our business history. The sponge
Of securities" and rights" which
could be devised would absorb even
these enormous earnings as the
Sahara Desert sucks up the babbling
brook. The business would stag
ger along and labor would be paid
the market rates" of wages. This
is where Henry Ford is "utopian. !"
He has refused to burden great
enterprise with the false and parasitic
capitalism which has blighted 80
many Of our railroads and mills.
The business is enormously success
ful so that the results are startling,
but Mr.. Ford's great departure lies
in that he has given the enterprise
the benefit Of it own power. In do
ing so he has shown US what the
business Of the future is to be like.

MURPHY AND THE "UPLIFT"

1t could not have been expected
that Charles F. Murphy would be
seriously alarmed by a scheme of
democratic reorganization based on
county autonomy" With county
autonomy" Murphy can be as ardent
a reformer as anybody. AS he cyni:
cally remarks, II shall be very glad
to aid in any effort to uplift the
party--if that's the word"
County autonomy means that
Murphy controls New York county;
that New York county controls
Kings, Queens. Richmond and the
Bronx, and that they in turn, with a
few judicious combinations up the
State. control the democratic or
ganization Of New York. Whether
William Church Osborn or John Doe
is chairman of that kind of State
committee is a trifling detail that
could never give the Boss moments
anxiety. The more respectable the
chairman the better it would be for
Murphy.
The only kind Of democratic re-
form that is worth hill Of beans is
the kind that strikes straight at the
heart of Tammany. AS long as the
Democratic County Committee is
Tammany, and Tammany is what it
is, Murphy is only an incident. If
he is not the Boss. some other MUIR?
ply will be Boss, and the other
Murphy will be no better than this
Murphy. Nobody except man of
Murphy's type would be Boss of
Tammany Hall, or do the things
that Tammany Boss must do in
order to retain his power.
A scheme of democratic reform
that does not contemplate the COM
plete separation of the democratic
organization from Tammany will
never get very far. The more it
changes the more it will remain the
same.--N. Y. World.

STATE TO CONTROL

DENVER, Colo, Feb. 20.-Great

announcement by President Field,
of The Mountain States Telephone
and Telegraph Company, that he is
in hearty accord with the plan for
the control of the company he rep
resents by State utilities Commits
siOns elected by the people. The
company, which operates in the seven
states, mount aims, is one Of the blggrs ST
public serving c,rporations in the
country, and this announcement,
coming as it dots, il the midst Of
pubic dlslruSt of all corporations,
shows a broad far sighted po'ic,
that is doing much toward bringing

The report in part says: On
December 81, 1918, we had in our

service TO 200, ,0l6 exchange stations;
there are %, ,556 stations connected
with our system on the lines OF con,
Meeting companies, making total
of 222,572 subscribers stations in

the same date were 76,984 Sc. Our
company furnished as well to minor
companies toll service over 8.0l9
miles of connecting toll line. There
are in the territory of the Mountain

ciities to the public much better
than those formerly enjoyed. Two

male and 2.704 female employees
made possible the handling of l,0S5,
443 exchange messages per day, and
1S,307 outgoing toll messages per
day, and were paid for their services
the sum of $3,92l 1872 during the
year.
Two states in our territory dur

Arizona and New Mexico had al

and, by virtue of our previous ex-

VOTE FOR CONSOLIDATION

Tomorrow, Saturday, is the day
set for the consolidation election,
which will be held in Stafford and
Layton for the purpose Of determin-
ing whether the people are progress
sive enough to favor one large school
district in order to carry out sue.
cessfully the plan for higher educa-
ton at home. ...
Much has been said in favor of
high school in Stafford by combin.
ing into one large school district
the two districts which now comprise
Stafford and Layton. From an Geo.
nomical standpoint consolidation is
most desirable, as 1t brings into ex-
istence the larger school district to
maintain the high school.
The larger school district, with
its increased wealth by addition of
property, gives the best opportunity
for the fairest means of distributing
the expense of maintenance uf a
high school. and for this reason con-
solidation Of the two school districts
should appeal to all the people.
To the progressive citizen, the one
who believes in higher education at
home, street improvements, public
parks. best sanitary methods, and in
fact all that goes with the better
ments that make a better town,
consolidation of the two districts is
the logical solution of the plan for
higher education at home.
There can be no doubt in the
minds of right thinking people that
consolidation means anything else
but q larger school district for the
better and more economical main
tenance Of high school.
Tomorrow should be a red letter
day in the history Of our town. The
progressive people should welcome
the opportunity to cast their ballots
In favor of consolidation and higher
education for their children.
Tomorrow should be the dawn of
a new era in our town, the progress
sive era. We want to give our
children the best education that is
provided by the public school system.
We want them to have every ad-
vantage that comes with the oppor-
tunity to secure a higher education
at home. We need the high school
for our boys and girls. We need
all the special training that is se-
cured thru high school work for our
boys and girls. so that they will be |
better fitted to take their places in |
society; that they will become good
citizens and good business men and
