ALL OVER A PAPER

A man who was too stingy to
take his home paper, sent his
small son to borrow a copy from
a neighbor. In his haste the boy
knocked down four hives of bees
and as a result was badly stung.
When the sons cries reached his
fathers ears, the fond parent
started at once to his aid, but
failed to notice d barbed wire
fence, which he ran into, ruin
ing a four dollar pair of pants
and cutting himself up consider
ably. The family cow took ad-
vantage of the hole in the fence
by getting into the field and
killing herself eating green corn.
Hearing the noise his wife ran
out, upsetting a four gallon
churn of rich cream into a small
basket containing some little kit
tens drowning the whole family,
and in her hurry she dropped a
$17 set of false teeth. The baby
who was left alone in the house,
crawled through the spilled cream
into the parlor, running a new
$25 rug. During the excitement
the eldest daughter ran off with
the hired man and a goat broke
his chain and chewed the tails
off from four skirts hanging on
the line.

THE MARTYRDOM
OF TOM CAMPBELL

Tom Campbell, the only repub-
lican ever elected to a state office
in Arizona, is about to be legis-
lated out of office by a cruel
democratic legislature. The
democrats have scented afar Mr..
Campbells gubernatorial boom
in 1916 and are taking this meth
cd of killing him off. They are
perfectly familiar with his record
as assessor of Yavapai county
and rightfully fear that he will
make such a good record as tax
commissioner that he will be
taken up by the people and ele-
vated to the governors chair.
1t is too bad to sacrifice Mr..
Campbell after he has made
such an arduous campaign for
state office, but we take it that
instead of killing him off, the
democrats will make a martyr of
him and that will even scores
with them in 1916.
While republicans do not like
t0 see the Onlv man thew have
elected to state office sacrificed
on the block. they are willing
that Mr.. Campbell should go
through the ordeal in order to
get the head of that offensive
member of the commission, G.
M. lander. There will be this
compensating feature about Mr..
Campbells official demise. 1t
will mean that Zander will be
relegated to private life.
AS for Mr.. Campbell, his re-
tirement will only be temporary.
He is the logical choice for gov
ernor in 1916 and his martyrdom
at the hands of the democratic
legislature will not hurt but help
his chances for elevation to that
high office. Tucson Citizen.

WIRELESS IN THE DESERT.

One of the chief difficulties in
flying by aeroplane over the desert,
that of guidance, bids fair to be
greatly lessened, if not entirely obvi-
ated, by recent discovery of Sig.
Marconi. The inventor, upon his re-
turn from professional visit of OBJ
servation to Tripoli, announced that
in sending wireless messages across
the desert no poles or masts are
needed. 1t is only necessary to lay
the wires along the sand for short
distance in the direction in which
the message is to be sent, and the
apparatus performs its functions as
perfectly as usual, if not better than
before. This is due to the complete
dryness and nonconductivity of the
sand.

Who Did Not Read News

s'The late Gen. James B. Weaver"

He believed that from the farmer

anecdote.
ga farmer of this type, said
General Weaver, was seated on a
barrel, whiting stick, when a
traveller stopped and said:
"Well, sir, what do you think of
Christian ScienceY
"Hain't heard nothin' on it, the
farmer answered.
"'Well, wellp said the traveller,
and he resumed:
"'With which side do your SYM
pathieS lie IN the IurkO-ltallan

"Didn't know there wuz no war,
muttered the farmer.
s'The traveller then tried him on
another tack:
''Do you consider the Wright BIZ
plane inferior to the foreign mono
plane for swift, safe fyingY
"'Sfur's l know said the farmer,

house for him. On one occasion he

wished to have a pair of trousers
pressed, and the tailor sent a boy
to his residence to get them. The
bishops sister admitted the messen-

boy has come for your trousers !"
