IS North First Ave.

a job for a man who can annoy trombone scientifically.
 Shortly after this the band is or ganiZed and they practice twice week for three years. The citizens get no pay for listening to this practice; but when the band Ina slearned how to play a piece simultaneously so that the coroner will recognize the remains, it begins to charge $50 per appear ance. This is about the only unbusi- nesslike situation left in America.
 Bands are very useful. It is i'm possible to run a circus, political rally. Fourth of July celebration, Hibernian picnic, or minstrel parade without one. It is also impossible to bury a very prominent citizen with anything like sufficient eXpressiveness without band. Let us all strive to live so re- verberatingly that twenty-five men will get s3 apiece for putting on blue coats and caps and blasting a way through the atmosphere to the silent tomb for us.
 Band music is very inspiring and is more attractive to a small boy than a public library, high school or any thing but a fire. Any horn in the band when played by itself would make a crow feel proud of its voice, but when they are all footed together the noise blends into a hurricane of harmony which makes a modest citi zen proud to march in a secret society parade in pink silk pants and which causes hardened citizens to resolve to lead a better life and vote the ticket straight hereafter.
 It is very difficult to become presi dent of this country, and many dis coura gements are placed in the path of the man who desires to lay aside few million dollars. But no citizen should despair so long as he can, by practice, win the confidence of a large horn and march inside of it's coils on every public occasion, surrounded by swarm of small boys who would give all they have to be in his place.

The German Propaganda

than seems warranted has been placed by a majority of the press of the United States upon the disclosures painted by the New York World regarding the activities of the Ger man propagandists in this country. These dis closures are in the shape printed letters stolen from pr. Heinrich Albert, German representative in this country whose unconcealed mission has been to mould American sentiment in favor of Ger many. Upon these letters based charges of German efforts to foment strikes in American fac tories engaged in the manufacture of material. and an effort to establish a German service for deusion Of the people.
 To all of this Albert has made a satisfac tory reply. which was printed thls paper the morning of August 21. As to the charge of foment ing strikes that is denied, and it is pointed out that it was based certain of the stolen letters which had been received by pr. Albert from sons of whom ne heard and which had been given no attention by him. As the purchase of American munition factories their outputs, he defended his right pointing that 1t proper for Germany control them for the allies to do
 ed this charge and are devoting themselves the German propaganda, the German service.
 With that. in all the circumstances, we can. see nothing wrong. Throughout the American readers have not been served with news, but with the grossest misrepresentation by both sides. We

LEO FRANK

Still trust God would him through At last ye got him: there he swings Above the bowling people kings
 At last ye got him; he outstood In innocence and hardihood
 The servile court, the madman's knife, The wreck of name and home and wife, Still trusting God would see him through At last ye got him in the night, Sick wounded, worn, and strangely white, Your burgher, Leo Frank, the Jew. Ye hanged him the gallows- tree. Hell hang for all the years to be: Ye nor your children shall have power To take him down single hour; Nor wind, nor rain, nor bird of prey. Shall eat that awful Form away Nor God once veil It from your view For 'tis no human head and limb Ye hanged Gods Justice, hanging him. Your brother, Leo Frank, the Jew.

The Cailaghan Resolution

The resolution introduced by Auditor CaIlagban at the Salt Lake meeting of state auditors anG comptrollers must have the endorsement of all who believe that public business should be conducted in a manner business like the conduct of a pri- vate business. The resolution course has noth- ing to do should have nothing to do with ;he controversy existing state but if it were not for the evil which the resolution designed to correct there would now be no controversy
 The resolution seeks install the budget sys- tenn something that The Republican has steadily advocated for the three years for our state county and municipal governments. We encountered the objection as to state budget the system could not be applied affairs, especially at time when the state young and when much experimentation must be engaged But if ttat objection was ever valid it is longer. If our state officials cannot form of idea as to what the expenses of their offices are going 60 be is time that they give place to officials who can make such estimates
 If New York and other cities whose govern ments much expensive and infinitely more complicated than that Arizona can employ tie budget system to advantage and Arizona cannot so employ it, the state government at fault and should be replaced quickly as possible
 The Callaghan resolution proposes also to do what the legislature tried to what has already been done by the advanced states get rid of open continuing statutory appropria- tions. They incentive extravagance waste and graft Some of them are indefinite and un limited. while, though others limitations placed upon them, they liberal to invite extrava- gance But for the unfortunate differences which arose between the legislature the governor We would probably have the Of these statutory appropriations. Though that alone would not have given scientific budget system the excavation would have been for the foundation unon which another legislature could lay one
 There is thing to which tayDavers poa,. fully make up their minds that is that thev cannot have the most economical government untu they have budget system A government which is not economical cannot be highly efficient

It takes a lot of men, consid erable cooperation and a. good ma tured community to manufacture a successful band.

A CONFIRMED TRoTTER

He does the latest dances And never seems to tire; His follies, as it chances, Are paid for by his sire. Night after night you'll find him Upon the ballroom floor. Where pleasures letters bind him Quite oft till half-past four. No weighty problens veX him, He seldom thinks at all; I'm sure 'twould not perplex him If dire things should befall. Just so they'd not prevent him From skipping to and fro; For what Dame Nature meant him I'm sure I do not know.

And only yesterday a big rough man caught and turned me roughly around on the stTeet-likcWiSe heel and in a tuba tone of voice he spake: Farther. l have whiskers; what are you going to do about it.? I told him. unflinchingly, that 1 thought whiskers were good things-that my women friends thought so too-that whiskers were stylish and indicated broadness and character.
