Should Be Muzzled

The News would like to know whether or not there is some way to muzzle that person in Albu- querque who uses a considerable part of the alphabet to sign his name. We refer to the indiyid- ual who breaks into the columns of the Albuquerque papers near ly every day and spills lot of transformation about the condi- tion of the roads in Northern Arizona. especially the Old Trails Route; the one who signs his name ''CoI. D. K. B. Sellers. 2
 From this distance it seems that the Sellers person must cer- tainly have a financial interest in sending westbound automobile travel over the southern route. Otherwise why does he issue a bulletin every time a sprinkle of rain falls along the Old Trails Route stating that the road is impossible? If he is being paid to send tourists over the south ern route, why does he not ad- yertise himself as press agent for that route, and pay advertis- ing rates to the Albuquerque papers that print his screeds?
 In spite of the publication of false reports relative to the con dition of the Old Trails Route, large numbers of tourists prefer this route to the southern and hence come this way. And they act wisely, for there has been but few weeks this spring when the roads were impossible and that was for a short tune after the flood in April.

Secretaru Bruan Resigns

w J. Bryan resigned as secre- tary of state last Tuesday. His resignation was promptly accept ed by President Wilson. The cause of the resignation was a disagreement between the presi- dent and his secretary of state over the governments foreign policy. The latter desires peace at any price. even if to secure it he must lick the. boots of numer- ous foreign rulers. The former baked at the boot-licking, hence the split.
 For more than a month Presi- dent Wilson has assumed the dl- rectlon of the governments for eign policy, and Mr. Bryan has been only a figure-head, a posi- tion that was very irksome to a man accustomed to working in the spotlight. Rather than stand in the shadow of another. even of the president of the United States. the three-t time candidate for president prefer red to take his hobby-horse and go home.
 The Wilson administration will probably be able to totter along some how without the assistance of the Chautauqua statesman as secretary of state.

 While no official action was taken by the board Monday, the members of the board gave as- surance to MT. Myers that the franchise would be renewed in favor of the HoIbrook company at the July meeting of the board. This assurance was sufficient and MT. Myers left in the evening

Eastern Tourists at Forest

A
 Chester Campbell. proprietor of the Adamana hotel, drew heavily on Holbrook last Monday for assistance in the entertain ment of a party of New York tourists that stopped there to see the petr1hed forest and painted desert. The party was compos- ed of Columbia University stu dents and faculty; they travelled in three Pullman cars and num- bered sixty-fiye. Walter Me Laws. of the Ford garage. sent four cars and these with those owned by Mir. Campbell were sufficient to accommodate the crowd.
 Rex Smith was asked by MT. Campbell to assist in showing the wonders of the forest and desert to the visitors, be being quite well versed in the legen- diary history of the locality. MT. Smith was accompanied on the trip by his wife and by Mrs. Taft and Mrs. Divelbess. Ac- cordlng to MT. Smiths account the New Workers were greatly impressed with what they saw. and were moreover delighted with the courtesy shown them by their guides.

Two Stricken Counties

There are probably many re- commentators in the call of Governor H1nt for the second extra session of the legislature which need not be immediately acted upon. but there is one which should recieve early and generous attention. That IS the recommendation for the relief of the citizens of Apache and Maya jo counties, sufferers from the floods of last April. The extent and the effect of that calamity is not fully understood outside the region devastated. Not only were the results of years of la bor swept away in a night. but so general was the disaster that hardly member of the communi- ty was left in a position to assist another. All were reduced to the same level of helplessness. Growing crops and even the farms on which they grew were ruined. Earlier, farms nearer the river had been abandoned for those on the mesa and had been given back to the desert. These were individual los ses to which are to be added public losses. ruined road and destroyed bridges.
 Though the people of Arizona have complained bitterly of reck- less expenditure of the public money, we cannot conceive that any taxpayer would begrudge any amount the legislature might give to these stricken farmers. Such a gift would not be a purely charitable donation. It would not be a gift merely to Apache and Navajo counties. but gift to all Arizona, of which they are a part. No state. however rich, can afford to permit suffering within it's borders, and no state can permit happy homes to re- main in ruin. Arizona Rep.

WHAT SCIATICA Is

There is something terrifying about
the word sciatica. Yet sciatica is
nothing but neuralgia of the sciatic
nerve and neuralgia is an inflamma-
tion caused by lack of nourishment
Application of dry heat as hot sand
bags or flannel to the course of the in
famed nerve often quiets the pain but
it does not feed the nerve. 1t is tenn
porary relief, a good thing to know
about, but not remedy.
What causes the nerve starvation
that results in neuralgia and sciatica
and how may it be corrected?
The most common cause is a run
down physical system and a frequent
exciting cause is exposure to cold.
Thin blood is often at fault. 1t is
through the blood that the nerves get
their nourishment. Mortal man knows
of no other way of getting nourish-
ment to a nerve. Therefore when the
blood gets thin and fails to feed the
nerves they show their resentment by
becoming infiamed. Try Dr. Williams
Pink Pills at this stage and see how
the Inflammation subsidies as the en-
riched blood carries to the starved
nerves the elements they need.

The act had been held in committee

lie imputed selfish motives to Mr..
Rininger.
Give Govt TO People
Mr.. Sarig, Berks. demanded that the
House take steps to give government
back to the people and that they
should be given more chance to elect.
To this Mr.. Spangler retorted that
the Democrats should talk to the Pres
ident of the United States about giving
government back to the people.
Mr.. Rininger in answer to Mr.. Span
gler declared he had no selfish mo-
tiNes and If he had he would not try
to satisfy them by bill in the Legis-
lature. This bill has the support of
the citizens of Altoona and of other
places" said he.
Messrs. Sones, Schuylkill; Gibson,
LycominS, and Ramsey, Delaware
spoke against the bill and Mr.. Maurer
BerAs, in favor OF it. Mr.. Ramsey said
he did not think for a minute that Mr.
Rininger had any selfish motive, but
insisted that inasmuch as the advo-
Gates of commission government had
forced the act on the State last ses-
sion and the very same people are now
trying to turn it all over again, he
! thought the act should be allowed
to stand until it has proved its worth.
During the debate NIessrs. Garner
I and Sones had a tilt over their conf

Mr.. Spangler wound up the dicus-
sion by declaring that the third class

On the vote all of the Dauphin men,
