Total
Benevolent Features of Union.

In reference to taxation Tor benevolent
purposes. President Scott says:
THE fact that the members of this In
ternational Union have been generous in
endeavoring to provide for members hon
orably discharged after many years of
faithful service in the printing industry
is reflected in the payments from the
old age pension fund which have reached
a total of 81 ,264 ,354 More than 81 $50,
900 has been expended for the erection
and maintenance of the Union Printers
Home and beneficiaries OF deceased mem
bers have received more than $l,70O,OO0.
The total cost OF these three features
last year was S75S,359.
This burden which has been volun-
tarily assumed by members of the In
terna tional Typographical Union bears
heavily on the shoulders of the mem
bers OF many of our subordinate unions,
where wage scales are extremely modest.
"The writer is convinced that it would
be extremely unwise to make member
ship in this union more attractive by
adding to these benevolent features,
since such u policy would necessarily
involve increased assessments.
AN international fund for the assist
ance of the unemployed would require
an additional assessment, and the ad-
ministration of such a fund would be an
extremely complex problem. Notwitlr-
standing the strength Of the arguments
in favor of such form of insurance, it
would be injudicious, in my opinion, to
attempt TO establish such a system at
the present time"
In regard to district organizations such
as this one, President Scott has this to
say:
'In the development of our district
organizations lies the solution OF many
of the problems which exist in morgan
lied jurisdictions. The executive coun-
ell has assisted district organizations
financially and thru the cooperation Of
our representatives and we shall con-
tinue this policy"

ence district affiliated with our locals
is given as S62; it is estimated there
are $50 holding membership and paying
dues direct to l. 7. U. headquarters,

A recruit in one of Arizona's
companies now on the border
was reported missing one day
when on outpost duty, but show
ed up the day following after
walking nearly forty miles.
When placed on duty he was
ordered to walk east until he met
the sentry. but in some manner
missed him and kept on walking
until he met a patrol guard and
was taken back to camp. While
this is an amusing incident, and
probably embarrassing to the
recruit, he has no reason to be
ashamed of his performance, be
cause he. was obeying orders.
The man who obeys orders has

soldier, but a winner in any walk

Whether the United States will
go to war with Mexico is still a
debatable question, but the pres
ent tactics is not only discourag-
ing to the soldiers at the border,
but is stirring up bitterness and
hatred in the Mexicans. Ger.
Persing's expeditionary COM
mand evacuated a village recent
ly, and fell back to the north for
military reasons, which gave the
Mexicans authorities the oppor-
tunity to spread broadcast the
report among the poor ignorant
population that the Mexican
army was driving the American
army out of Mexico. 1t is about
time Mr.. Wilson made up his
mind what he intends to do, anc
either put the army in Mexico
with sufficient numbers to com.
mand respect, or withdraw
entirely. To have our soldiers
going in and backing out every
few days only encourages the
poor ignorant Mexicans in then
belief that the United States is
only a little country about twice
the size of Texas, whose people
are afraid to fight, and that in 8
war with Mexico could easily
whip the country and capture
the seat of government at Wash.

Sir Roger Easement has been
found guilty in the English courts
of high treason, and been SEN
fenced to hang. Sir Roger was
the leader of the recent revolu-
ton in Ireland, and it is almost
certain if the death penalty is in
ficted King George will discover
his error when to late to make
amends. Ireland has always
wanted and some day will have
home rule, but the execution of
Irish patliots may lead them to
insist on independence from the
mother country.

The comments of the democrat
ic newspapers on the return Of
Col. Roosevelt to the republican
party are truly amusing, charg-
ing him with selling out the pro-
gressives, and going back to the
party he branded as thieves
and liars. :" 1t only shows how
little the editors know of actual
conditions, or how laboriously
they are working to conceal the
facts. There has never been a
day since Roosevelt cast his first
vote that he has not been an ad-
vocate OF the doctrines of repubii-
canism, and when he left the
party to lead the progressives he
was revolving against the corrupt
leadership OF a score Of men, and
was not deserting party tenents
or the rank and file. The fact
that the progressives polled a mil
lion more votes than republicans
is proof that a majority of the
|old membership of the party
agreed with Roosevelt on the
corruption Of leadership. The
platform of the progressive party
was just as sound on the great
economic issues as was the re-
publican, and at no time in the
campaign was the progressive
| platform assailed by republicans
as lacking in essential declara-
tons. The whole fight was cen
tered on Mr.. Roosevelt as a per-
sonality by the gang of corrupt
managers who were in control OF
the party machinery at that time.
Instead of Mr.. Roosevelt coming
back to the republicans, the re-
publicans have caught up with
Mr.. Roosevelt and his progress
Isives, and the united column is
marching under progressive
platform dictated by Mr.. Roose-
| welt, under the leadership Of 2
man sprung from the loins of the
people and not the creature of q
| discredited lot of political high
| binders. The party name is i'm
material. We can all be progress
sives or republicans. The latter
name was preferred more for
the association with it Of the i'm
mortal Lincoln, Grant, Garfield
and Mckinley, and the brilliant
achievements of the party as
written in the history and devel-
opement of our country in the
past sixty years.

Probably the ends of justice
demand all the disgusting details
being given in the Orpet trial al
Waukegan, ILL.,, but it does seem
the morbidly curious crowd OF
women and girls that flock to the
court room every day could be
ordered out by the judge without
interfering with the administra-
tion of the law. 1t is certainly
disgusting to read of men and
women, boys and girls. rioting in
the halls of the court house in
their efforts to gain seats in the
court room to hear a lot of filthy
testimony that even brings q
blush to the cheeks of the attor-
neys in the case. It is to be re-
gretteo that testimony in such
cases cannot be taken behind
closed doors.

DR.. David Starr Jordon, an
other of those peace at any
price" advocates on the order
William Jennings Bryan, was
billed to hold g peace confer
ence" at Ell Paso, but failing to
arouse any encouragement or
enthusiasm he changed the meet
ing place to Albuquerque. Here
he met the same reception, and
now the Doctor has decided to go
east to find a desirable place to
preach his gospel. DR.. Jordan
probably never heard the story
of the Quaker who was brought
before the church for whipping
a bully. The elders quoted to
the offending brother the. biblical
INDUCTION that whatsoever shall
smite thee on the right cheek,
turn to him the other also"
The brother responded that he
had followed the scriptures, as
his assailant had struck him on
the right cheek and he had turn
ed to him the other and he struck
that also, and the Bible was
silent on what course he had to
pursuethere after, and he had u.s.
ed his own judgment and whip
ped the stuffin' out of the fellow.
The United States is in about
that same position with Mexico.
She has smitten US on the right
cheek and is considering shifting
on us the other, and if she does it
is up to the United States to take
Mexico to a drubbing even to the
extent of wiping out the south

The service the citizens are
getting from the Santa Fe Land
and Water Co. in the way of
water pressure is simply rotten.
That may not be good English,
but it expresses the idea. At
this season of the year our peo-
pie are trying to raise lawns, and
develope a few trees, but the
pressure is hardly sufficient to
get the water out of the end of
a hose, to say nothing about run
ming lawn sprinklers. 1t is no
excuse to say the people are
extravagant with the water.
The company are charging
consumers the highest fiat rate
of any place in Arizona, and they
certainly are entitled to some
service. There are hours at a
time every day when there is not
sufficient preassure to put water
on the second floor of a resid-
ence, and if one of the inmates
of such a home wants to take a
bath he has to await the pleasure
of the water company to put on
pressure so he can get the
water. If the consumers are
extravagant with the water, why
don't the company establish a
metered service, and then furnish
all the water people want. That
is the way a water company
makes money, and the more the
people use the greater will be
their dividends. 1t is possible,
however, the company realizes
that the high fiat rate now in
effect nets them a greater return
than any metered service possi-
bly, could, and by keeping them
on a fiat rate with no pressure to
make the water privileges of
service except at such hours as
the company may elect, they can
find refuge in the statement that
the people are extravagant and
make it impossible to maintain
sufficient stand-pipe pressure.
