The Views of Champ Clark

Speaker Champ Clark is easily the most human of the democratic leaders. He does talk continuously does he lecture given to spitefu utter ances and occasionally he views other things than politics One of these occasions has just appeared during which Mir. Speaker made a few remarks the subject of the high of living One of the things he said this: Every who should keep hens. And any who has twenty square feet of ground can keep them
 Now under circumstances. any man who has twenty square feet of ground keep hens and he keep them and the peace too if his twenty feet of ground is a quarter of a mile from his nearest neighbor. If he is all rural and domestic in his the pleasure he will from keeping the fowls will more than make good all his labor and expense. His chickens will develop into fowls and will finally die old age before he harden his heart the point of killing of them. On the other hand if he has but twenty ground and the home a neigh bor begins on the twenty-first foot he keep chickens and count the next door neGhbors his friends chicken is indifferent the laws pro- hibting trespass a German army and it provokes almost many feelings of resentment It will show superhuman intelligence in planning ways by which it enter upon the property of the neighbors and nothing but the fear of death will drive it back If Champ Clark wants something worse than civil he should encourage the people to follow his sugges toas to the letter regardless their location If he is really philanthropist should add restricting clauses to the advice which he gave to the public
 It should be noticed that the Missouri man did not advise any to house the chickens under the same roof with the family though such things are done. Probably even Champ Clark would not care to en- courage poultry culture under those circumstances. nasmuch as public sentiment now regards the practice unsantary.

A Law On Trial

The murderer was one of party of four Mexicans. Following closely upon the heels of this crime there outbreak of law less Mexicans at Ray in which several only wounded though the shooting was done with homi- cidsl intent There may be relation between these events and the publicity of the fact that capital pun ishment be inflicted any longer in Arizona. But suppose majority of the peopel who have heard of these crimes have thought at the time of the anti-capital punishment law.
 It should be borne in mind that the law is only on trial and that if 1t should be followed by usual number of murders the people will promptly restore capital punishment the next election The law carried by majority of only 152 with vari- ous societies and organizations working strenuously for it. and with the influence of the governor immediate following in it's behalf. No word was spoken against it in the course of the campaign by speaker. Newspapers were generally silent. The Republican advised the adoption of the law as an experiment
 Many who voted for 1t did 50 with rnisgivings Nine voters out of every would prefer the aboli- ton of capital punishment if the same or better re- suits could be produced. But they were apprehensve that conditions in this state did not admit of it's abo- lltion, that have a class of criminals whom noth- ing less than the fear of death can deter However voters decided by very small majority to give abo- lition trial
 If now, with prohibition rgidly enforced as we believe it will be- there be an increase in the number of homcides within next two years there is doubt that the galows would be re-erected in Arizona. We hope that this may not be deemed

The interpretation that will be placed upon 1t will that there friendly feeling in Casa Grande toward corporations least that the people of Casa Grande have superstitious fear of corporations. This will be brought the attention of capitalists and investors generally and new friendly interest will be felt in Casa Grande by peo- pie who never heard of it before. They will think too that Casa Grande cannot be alone in it's attitude toward corporations but that it must be typical of Arizona towns So that the whole state will be the beneficiary of the Casa Grande election.
