SOrdidness of the Bill Eliminated

There are bills and bills. Most everyone gets them at some un- garded moment or other in his life, but when person gets a bill like the one below, the sting is removed and the most hardened dead beat would come through with the cash if he had to steal his baby's bank to do it. The bill read as follows and is real one too, except maybe the name is spelled wrong.

Absolutely Nothing to It

Just after we finished running off the paper last week cheerful party remarked well, the paper is out. You can take it easy for few days, can't you?" Yep. Nothing at all to do. Ab-so- LOOT-ly nothing. Once the paper is printed all any editor has to do is to sit around watching the little bills come due, and gently shaking his money bush until enough dollars drop off to pay those, these or them bills. When the editor is not running off his paper his favorite pastime is to recline on divan, smoking fine full favored Clora de Lima cigar, and watching the subscribers struggling with each other to get on his list and pay the furtherest in advance. If he becomes ong- waved, he puts out his cigar, slips it in his pocket and saunters, nonchalantly, down the boulevard de Maine, just to hear the mer- chants clamor for additional space as with tears in their eyes they dog his footsteps. And the way the news hunts up the editor is pleasant to contemplate. When the paper is out the editor goes to
The Coconino sun., 1915-04-16

his desk, leans back in his chair looks wise and waits till the day before next press day when the people line up in front of his office and then file past his desk and tell him all the news of the week. He writes it up in fifteen or twenty minutes and hangs it on the hook. The compositor shakes the copy over the cases, says a few mystic words and the type flies into place and after few passes the forms are ready for the press again and the editor goes down and deposits some money in the bank. It's the greatest snap in the catalogue. Now if the editor could only do away with press days his joy would be complete Clifton Min. ing Journal.

BOYS WHO WIN

Have you ever noticed that the fellows that run most of the big concerns of the country are the ones who return courteous an- swers. If you address the presi- dent of a railroad he will listen attentively and make a decent re- ply. But you ask a civil question of the cub at a depot in a country town and you will get smart and flippant reply. Go into big city store and ask for the manager. He will talk pleasantly and give you the desired information. But happen to get in the way of the bright young fellow at the window washing it, and he will hand you a. package that will make your blood boil. But drop around twenty years later and the cub at

Northern Arizona is a good sized little empire in itself and the only thing that will bring it to the front is a combined effort of the "go-some-bunch" of the north. The north is always some pie shy" when the. passing is going on, but if the newspapers stand together returning boost for boost, it will not be long until our south ern extremity will sit up and take something if it is only notice. The north has the cleanest, livest lot of newspapers in the state and their influence for good is more potent than a two-crutch daily reprint of what might have hap pened last week, if the sissors don't slip.

The people of Flagstaff have been exceedingly fortunate in the past few years in the way of dam age from fires. We have a splen- did water system and generally people turn out in force and help, but the city has been growing in all directions-faster than mains and ordinary hose carts can reach the outlying limits and it looks as though thousands of dollars would be saved by the use of a real fire truck that could reach the little homes quickly. It would save damage by water as we'll as fire. We are in good condition to pre- vent fires down town, except the lack of a fire organization, but otherwise time is money when a fire breaks out.

the depot may have advanced until he is brakeman on the local freight and the window washer will likely be driving one of the delivery wagons for the store. The presi- dents of railroads and the mana gers of big concerns are the fel- lows who in the flowery days of their youth acquired the habit of returning soft and courteous an swers. That is one of the reasons they become railroad presidents and managers of big concerns. The cub who knows more than the president of the railroad will always be a cub, and the sleepy window washer will still be pol ishing glass in the autumn time of his days.

The People vs. WinsOr

Lessees of school lands in Salt River valley held an indignation meeting last Saturday in Phoenix over the condition all lessees of the state are left in by the legisla- ture and Governor Hunt was se- verely criticized because there was no mention made of land matters in the call for the special session.
 Apparently the state of Arizona is not going to have any land unless it is done under the direct guidance of Mulford Winsor.
 While it is a rediculous mess the democratic party finds itself in because of the one job holder, it is a serious matter for the ranch. CTS and stockmen who are made to suffer just because Winsor stands in the way. Nothing but a law giving the land commission arbitrary power to do as they please, punish their enemies, re- ward their friends and control an unlimited appropriation for their own use, will satisfy Winsor. Little Nero seems content to con- tinue his Adding and let the whole land question go up in smoke unless his wants and desires are complied with.
 People over the state are su- premely disgusted with the petty manouvering for party power and factional fights that result in no good to the people for the money spent and there is wide spread feeling growing from one end of the state to the other that the only way to get rid of the "old man oi the sea- IS to recall Governor Hunt.
 It is mighty unproftable fight among the democrats the people are paying to see.

The average man is beginning to ask himself and few of his neighbors what has become of the long promised reduced cost of living so faithfully promised by President Wilson. Sugar is the same and the only benefit by free trade was to give the sugar trust a better hold on the people by rais- ing it in foreign countries and shipping it in to the detriment of American labor.
 Where are your cheap clothes you were going to get by putting wool on the free list? Same old price only more so because it is more difficult to get dollar or a job. Where is your cheap meat? Supply and demand still has that up in the air. Aside from this the United States lost fifty millions of revenue on the sugar tariff alone, which the sugar trust kindly put in their own pockets-but it was a free trade. However some of this was made up in petty annoyances such as one cent on telegraph messages, one cent stamps on telephone tolls, one cent stamp on express and freight bills and a thousand and one other one cent annoyances which the people have to pay for. It was called a "war tax" while the United States is at peace with all nations, ex- cept Mexico which is not recog- nized because it is difficult to know which piece to recognize.
