Alcibiades was banished from their midst and had to take refuge among the Spartans.
 This world is very very old, still there is an echo in this great republic of ours, that was in the very constitution of Plato, Socrates and Pericles of twenty three hundred years ago, in their proc lamation of the rights and special privileges of man.
 And so events may come and go, wars may rage on, new governments may be formed, Dynasties may fall and the maps of the world be changed, but as long as the human race shall manu- facture liquor, so long will there be human beings to drink of it.
 Should the drouth become too op- pressive in this sun kissed common wealth of ours, the self constituted keepers of so-called wayward brother whom nature has constructed with a different chemical admixture physically --can hardly detain him from crossing the Silvery Colorado where the wine flows as red and as free today, as it did on that night back in ages past when Alcibiades made the break among the statutes, and got run out of town. When this wayward brother has hit the marts of trade within the Golden State, he can proceed to shake the bridle off and kick up his heels if he so desires, and the good people of the Cactus State will thus be saved shock of humiliation also the labor of counting a whole lot of real money--but the Native Sons across the Silvery are willing workers when it comes to taking the count.
 After all is said and done politically, officially and otherwise, there will be some of the same kind of red wine, and quite little of good liquor absorbed by the old-time Arizonan for a few years to come. The old adage tells us i've can't keep squirrel on the ground while there is tree left standing in the timber lot.
 (NoTE) The young man who was arrested across from the Needles for "boot-legging", in whose possession was found jug of vinegar, shows us whither we are drifting since the new law went into force.

Vetoes The Pari-MutuaI Bill.

While we have never quite agreed with the ideas of Gov. Hunt respecting many fads of his administration we give him credit for his veto of the pari- mutual bill, which the farmers of Salt River valley tried to foist upon the people. This was a vicious piece of legislation and had it become law would have done much injury to the people of the whole State. Faro and roulette is far less injurious, to the public in general than is betting on the ponies. Pari-mutual is open and unadorned gambling, where boys, men and women can stake their little all on the position of the horse in any race, and where the gambling habit can form and fix it. self on all classes of society. Gov. Hunt gave lucid reason why he was filing this bill with the Secretary of State without his signature, one of which was that the people of the state had placed their stamp of disapproval on all forms of gambling.

Ten Years Misery Ended.

J. T. Chambers, merchant, Jonesboro, Ark, writes: Foley Kidney Pills cured me of ten-year standing case of rheum- atism. I suffered miserably. A friend told me of being cured; so used them, and they cured me, too."

Get Rid of Lingering Colds, Coughs
 and La Grippe.

Spring finds many afflicted with lingering, hacking coughs that weaken the system. Slush and wet cause more colds than zero weather. Group, bron- chitis, and pneumonia are prevalent. Every family should have a safe and re- liable cough medicine ready for use. Foley's Honey and Tar Compound con- tains no harmful ingredients. It eases cough, checks cold and relieves in famed and congested membranes. It clears the air passages and soothes in fammation. H. H. Watkins.

Prohibition B. c. and A. D.

The unexpected happened when Ari- zona, the most arid State in the Union, ''went dry" in every sense of the word, which proves the old adage that "there is nothing new under the sum-" The dry wave is spoken of by some as being the latest indication of the "uplift, the.impressive evidence of moral eleva- ton. It also proves that there are some among us who have adistrust of fellow mans ability to choose his own likes and dislikes.
 But wine is old and man is ancient.
 Since the human race began "wine was a mocker and strong drink was raging"
 Way back in the olden days there was the godson of Pericles who was a stu dent of Socrates, and something of a statesman---very much of soldier, and a gentleman of leisure---who loved to converse on the uplifting themes of the times in those days, when Athens was the seat of learning and the center of the statesmanship of the world.
 When one remembers what we have read of the dry wave that swept over Athens some 450 B. C., we will notice it was much the same here in our own land at the time of our last election, as it was on that summer night when Alcibiades came forth from his favorite Symposium into the streets of Hermes. Those Symposiums of old Athens were called their seats of learning. We of today might call them high-toned saloons. Perhaps those temples of learning might have been much like the college reunions of our own day when we moistened the dryness of the oc- casion with few foaming glasses or it's equivalent---and sang the Stein song.
 The night when Alcibiades sallied forth from that Symposium with three boon companies each carrying mighty and uplifting jag" while sing ing scrap of Sappho, or lit of the latest tango, and over them sailed the same old silvery moon which had looked down on many a scene like this in the ages past and smiled, as it did on this merry group as they walked arm-in-arm along the lighted way, where Alcibiades saw the long white street stretching far in the distance, beside which were many rows of statutes of Hermes, the messenger of the Gods, Guardian of the people and protector of the roads and travellers.
 Now Alcibiades respected Hermes as did all good Athenians and offered sacrifice in due season; but the wine he had partaken of was good and heady, the songs and the moonlight together were so uplifting that there came over him a bitter distaste for so many statutes of Hermes along the street which he must travel to his home, that he swept his cane across the face of each God, and on the following morning the citizens discovered to their horror that there was not statue in the lot with nose not broken or face badly bruised. Thereupon howl went up and wave of indignation swept over Athens while the people vowed "all wine mocker" and the Ruler of the people declared the city of Athens was doomed to go wineless---and so Athens "went dry"
 Those sad Athenians spent many wineless, sleepless nights and cursed Alcibiades but finally the wave of pro- hibition receded and Athens laughed and sang and danced once more. But =

Down at Globe they have been put ting large number of bootleggers up to the Superior court for sentence and the way Judge Shute shoots them down the chute to the pen is caution. One year in the pen and 10O$ fine appears to be the minimum sentence and fine. And yet the bootleggers still are boot logging, every county in the state re- porting from few to as high as forty captures within a month. And it is said that so far not one has been found not guilty by the courts. If they all get penitentiary sentences the loyal legion at Florence will be crowded out of their happy homes by the accessions from the bootlegging contingent.

Conditions at the Old Dominion mine as result of the unprecedented flow of water that has resulted from this years unusual weather conditions are serious but are no cause for apprehen- sion of permanent damage, according to statement given to the Arizona Rec ord by General Manager P. G. Beckett last night. MT. Beckett has been underground in personal charge of the fight against the water most of the time since the added flow was encoun- tered Thursday afternoon and has the situation well in hand.
 'Rumors that we have tapped an underground lake or that Pinal Creek is pouring into the mine are unfound- ed," said MT. Beckett. ''The fact of the matter is that the Old Dominion lies in a basin that drains this entire district and as a result of the heavy rains of the last few weeks the seepage caused flow of water on the twelfth level Thursday afternoon that was greater than our pumps could handle.
 "As result of this flow of water we had to drown our pumps on the eighteenth and sixteenth levels but we hope that the weather will continue fair so that the seepage will decrease to an extent that will enable us to handle it with the pumps we now have.
 'This seepage breaking through weak ground comes with a rush that causes the trouble. The situation is serious in that we have to suspend min- ing operations temporarily and devote our time to pumping. The length of time that this condition will prevail de- bends entirely on the weather. If the weather continues clear and the flow lets up somewhat we can handle the situation in short time. If weather conditions are adverse the time before we can resume mining will be length ened accordingly"
 MT. Beckett was told of the fear ex- pressed on the streets yesterday that serious cave-ins would result from the flooding of the mine. He declared that there was no ground for such fear in that the o. D. has no loose ground and that the entile workings are timbered substantially.
 Regarding the pump equipment at the mine the general manager said that it was far in excess of ordinary needs. He explained that while the usual amount of water pumped in a day is $500, 900 gallons there were nearly 14,- OOO,0 gallons pumped Thursday Arizona Record.
