A WIPES PLEA.

The entire state of Tennessee Is "dry"-that is, unadulterated liquor can not be sold openly. But bad whis- key and other injurious substitutes may be obtained in blind tigers"
 The following is a letter from a heart broken wife to the Minneapolis Press:
 Editor Press:
 Why don't the administration close the dives in this city? Why don't they stop the sales of whiskey? You can get 1t in restaurants, all you want. Gambling is going on in every cor ner, and the police know it. The chief knows it,
 My home is wrecked and my life is ruined. My husband has drank un- til he has lost his mind and left his home and wife without one bite to eat or one cent to buy anything with running after those gambling hells and rotten whiskey.
 Will the good people of this town stand for it. My husband was one of the best men in the world until this blind tiger" business started. For Gods sake close these gambling | hells and blind tigers"
 From a wife who has suffered and is today without a dollar.

 "Ay, when the coming day of unity draws near, waited by the precedent forces of love and allowance making and brotherly kindness and sympathy and by the appreciation that we have tried to play the game fairly. we will lift up our heads and from the warmth of our hearts and through the tears in our eyes will reverently say - What hath God wrought? And praised he His holy name, for ever and ever, amen
 Brother shipmen, let us stand by the ship and help to save others, in- stead of rowing away in the lifeboat to save ourselves. If we stay some will be saved. If we run away some will not be saved.
 Brother churchman, let us play the game fairly. Give and take with good will and love. Hold the trusts com. mitted to us firmly and patiently and be ready to turn over, by and by, to brethren who may be willing to re- ceive them, helps of reverence and roundedness and historic anchorage and American flavor
 Brother Americans, the dreadful war is plotting out or maiming or binding almost all the young man. hood of Europe. How gloriously those young men gathered to the colors, and how bravely they have fought and died! But the exhaustion of men and money there will be put added respon- sibility on us here to stand by the mis- sions. In awakening China. In en- terprisng Japan. In outcrying Africa In devastated Armenia God help us in our strength which He gives us, to stand by for help when our brethren of Europe. exhausted, distracted, al most destroyed, cannot we'll continue, at least for a time, to do so!
 Brethren all, do not want to mar this sermon by personal patchings. But it is not personal, is it-it is lifted out of the personal, isn't it-for me to say to you my thanks and give you my love and to ask you to take my blessing?"

Political Complexion of Legislature

OLtttC0t OOIHpte1IOH or LSSISIQLuT'
 Three women have been chosel
 as members of the house of re
 presentatives in Arizona. Al
 are from the southern part of tht
 state. They are Mrs. Rosa Me
 Kay of Bisbee, Cochise county
 Mrs. Pauline M. O'Neil of Phoe
 nix. Maricopa county, and Mrs
 Theodora Marsh of Nogales,
 Santa Cruz county. The legis.
 lative session begins January 8,
 1917.
 This is not the first time that
 women have been elected to the legislature in this state. Two years ago, in the second state legislature which met in 1915. Mrs. Francis Willard Munds of Prescott, Yavapai county. was in the senate and Mrs. Rachel Berry of St. Johns, Apache coun- ty, was in the house of repre- sentatives.
 Mrs. Munds was not a candi- date for reelection. She did stump the state in behalf of President Wilson, Senator As hurst and Congressm Hayden. Mrs. Berry was defeated this year in primaries. That was the result largely of the spirited con- test between Hunt and Olney and Mrs. Berry took a side that lost her prestige.
 Five of the nineteen members of the state senate of the third legislature are republicans. That party has four members in the house of representatives out of a total of thirty-five, making the largest representation republi- cans have had since Arizona was admitted to statehood. Two of the republican senators are from Maricopa county. one from Pima. one from Yavapai county and one from Santa Cruz. The re- publican members are H. B. Wilkinson, president of the Pho enix Title and Trust company, a well known attorney of Phoenix; Ernest Hall, an architect and owner of the Blue Ribbon ranch near Phoenix, F. o. Goodell of Tucson. chief clerk of Epes Ran dolph, president of the Arizona Eastern railroad company: H. N. Getchell, a mining operator from Yavapai county. and Dr. Ray Ferguson of Nogales. Santa Cruz county. Dr. Ferguson was formerly superintendent of the State asylum for the insane at Phoenix.
 Republican representatives of the house will be: T. H. Cureton of Williams schools; Harold Bax- ter, a rising young attorney of Phoenix; c. c. Green, ranch owner near Phoenix and A. R. a photographer of Tue son.
 Progressive democrats have three aspirants for president of the senate. Mulford Winsor of Yuma, c. M. Roberts of Cochise and c. H. Rutherford of Yava- pal; while conservative demo- crats favor Fred Sutter of Co., chise or D. H. Clarldge of Gra- ham.
 In the house ofrepresentatives there are 9 number of avowed and few receptive candidates for speakershIp. They are: Thomas P. Walton and Loren F. Vaughn of Maricopa, w. B. Wilt bank of Apache, and A. A. Johns of Yavapai county.
 For secretary of the senate J. B. Flanagan of the Parker Post. Yuma county and Oscar Zapf of Bisbee have been mentioned. For clerk of the house of repre- sentatives, F. Pinkley and Oscar Cole; both of Pinal county are two of the candidates. Phoenix Messenfer.
