PLATFORM PLATITUDES.

The democratic national convention
played out the farce of drafting and
adopting platform Saturday. The
people have had ample evidence of
how little confidence can be placed
in a declaration of principle eminat-
|ating from democratic conven-
ton. There is total absence Of sim
|cerity in any such documen a demo-
cratic convention may promulgate.
Experience has taught the people that
la democratic platform is more honor
ed in the breach than the observance.
The country would have more conf
dence in the democratic party il it
were to enter the campaign without a
platform. Then there would be no
promises sure to be broken. Lest We
forget. it may be we'll to turn to the
democratic platform adopted at Balti-
more in 1912, which has been so out
|rageously ignored by the president
elected upon and pledged to uphold
that platform, as we'll as by all others
in that party. Read the first plank in
the democratic platform of 1912 and
then laugh, if you have the heart to do
so in the face of the hardships the
party has forced upon the people.
Read 1t and then invite the most rabid
democrat 10 point out where demo-
|cratic policies have reduced the cost
|of single necessity that daily enters
into consumption in every family in
a n
lican tariff is militant in its fe:vor, yet
what has democratic free trade done
to reduce the high cost of living" and
how much has ii done to reduce the
liability of the consumer to meet the
steadily increasing prices that enter
into any kind of living. But here is the
toothless plank full of sound and fu-
ry, signifying nothing"
The high cost of living is serious
problem in every American home. The
republican party in its platform. at
tempts to escape from responsibility
for present conditions by denying that
they are due to protective tariff. We
take issue with them on this subject,
and charge that excessive prices re
suit in large measure from the high
tariff laws enacted and maintained by
the republican party and from trusts
and commercial eonspiracies fostered
and encouraged by such laws. and we
assert that no substantial relief can
be secured for the people until import
duties on the necessities of life are
materially reduced and these criminal
|conspiracies broken up"

STANDS By HUGHES.

The nomination Of Chas. E. Hughes
as the republican candidate for presi-
dent is particularly pleasing to George
A. Lee, candidate for governor on the
republican ticket. In the formal an
nouncement OF his candidacy made sew
eral months ago, Mr.. Lee quoted from
statement of Mr.. Hughes made when
he was governor of New York. In re-
ferring to the nomination of the for
mer justice, following the announce
ment from Chicago, MIR. Lee said:
Il am delighted with the choice of
Mr.. Hughes as l have long been a
warm admirer of the former justice
and governor OF New York. His fine
character. his fearlessness, his COM
handing personality appeal to all
Americans and TO their best concep-
tons Of the kind of leadership they
want in the presidency.
The nomination of Chas E. Hughes
as the republican standard bearer was
a splendid choice. His message of ac-
ceptance struck high note of patri-
|otic Americanism and virile. construc-
tive republican principles. His un-
Qualified stand on the great issues of
out and out Americanism, protection
and preparedness, industrial and social
as we'll as military. will insure the
support and cooperation of Theodore
Roosevelt, who is earnestly and sin
eerely committed to these principles.
With that support, and because of his
freedom from the bitter factional
quarrel of 1912, MIR. Hughes will weld
all the militant, aggressive, patriotic
elements OF the old party into a re-
united, enthusiastic and victorious re-
publicanism that will sweep the coun-
try in November"

the case of Mr.. Howe's candidacy il
can be truthfully said that Mr.. Howe
personally is not seeking the office.
He has been urged. and opportuued.
and petitioned by a multitude of his
friends to stand for the nomination
for the Joint senatorship. II the an
nouncement could have been made on
his behalf there is host of his friends
who would gladly and promptly take
IL upon themselves TO make the an

seeker. During his long residence in
Douglas county he has never been a

Up to the time Of going to press re-
lations between the United States and
Mexico had become so strained that
war seemed inevitable. Mexico is seek
ing and inviting war by the most pro-
vocative actions and the president has
called out 10000 national guards for
service on the border. That egotisticaI
braggart and greaser bandit. Carranza.
whom the administration recognized as
the head of the Mexican government,
and made a hasty nd egregious mis-
take IN doing so, IS largely responsible
for the present conditions. as il is
largely through mis- animosity to Amer
leans that the Mexican people have
been worked up to their present state
of excitement. Carranza's note to the
United States demanding the with
drawal Of the American troops in pur-
suit of Villa was both an insult and a
threat Wilson's reply was calm and
firm, yet foreeful, and one that cannot
be misunderstood 1t would have saved
much blood and treasure had the pres
ident exhibited the same firmness long
ago. At present writing it looks as
though war could hardly be averted.
unless the administration backs down
entirely. and that is not to be expected
on the eve Of campaign. War with
such weak country as Mexico would
reflect little credit on the United
States. There is nothing to be gained
by such war, and il would cost the
country the lives Of thousands of our
young men and millions of money that
could be spent to a far better advan-
tage in the avenues of peace. However.
II war is forced upon the United States
the people must submit to the sacrifice
they will be called upon to make
cheerfully and Loyalty, no matter what
the cost, trusting that the compensa-
ton for that sacrifice will be the res
iteration Of peace and a stable govern
ment for the unhappy country that is
inviting a sound thrashing.

CLARKDAlE BLANKS
 HUMBOLDT SUNDAY
Special Correspondence)

CLARkDALE, June 19.-One of the closest and best matched baseball games ever played in this section of Arizona. and between the most evenly matched teams in Northern Arizona, was played on the Clarkdale grounds Sunday, June IS, between Clarkdale and Humboldt, resulting in score of 3 to o in favor of the Clarkdale team. who have now proven themselves the cham pions of Northern Arizona, having won every game played this season.
 The local boys have maintained prac- tically the same team since the first of the season, and have had practically a walk away with every team they have met so far, but the Humboldt boys have strengthened up to point where both teams have to play real baseball to decide the winner of each game. The two teams have scheduled more
 games for the season, and expect to put up more games of this class, which l are as good as can be seen anywhere and both Manager Talbott of the Clarkdale team and Manager O'Donnel of the Humboldt team, feel confident | that they have the best team of the
 two, and among the best teams in the | state.
