William Jennings Bryan has
declared lis purpose for the next
four years to educate democracy
to prohibition and write in the
next platform a plank in favor
of national prohibition by con-
stitutional amendment. The re-
publicans certainly have no rea-
son to be friendly to the liquor
interests, in view of the late
election, and particularly in Bry-
ans home state, where the dis
tillery and brewery money was
lavishly expended to defeat the
republicans for espousing pro-
hibition. Perhaps by 1920 the
republican party will realize that
the liquor element is a treacher-
Gus force ever ready to scuttle
the ship when not permitted to
dictate or control, and may make
national prohibition an issue. In
that event where will Mr.. Bryan
be found if democracy fails him?
We venture the prediction that
he will still be a democrat, sup
porting the ticket under the guise
that a presidential election has
no bearing on national prohibi-
ton, but is a matter for con-
gressional action. Mr.. Bryan
knew the whisky element of Ne
braska had combined to defeat
the republican nominee for gov
ernor because he was in favor of
the prohibition amendment, and
he also understood that the dem
ocratic nominee was the tool of
the whisky ring, but he stood
faithful to democracy, and re-
joiced over the victory in that
state. Mr.. Bryan will be for
prohibition if it is a democratic
measure, but if it is not, Mr..
Bryan is still a democrat. He is
a politician, not a statesman;
willing to sacrifice principle for
victory.

By a display of narrow part

By a display of narrow parti-
sanship, Secretary of State Os-
born crucifed his friends in the
gubernatoral contest, and un-
Willingly was the cause of hav-
ing the suit collapse. The law
provides in general terms that
when the vote has been officially
canvassed certificates of election
shall be issued to the candidates
receiving the majority vote. 1t
is no part of his duties to pre-
sumo to pass on the validity of
the election and withhold certifi-
Gates. But Sid is 6 democrat
first, and a public servant sec
ond, and he declined to issue a
certificate to a republican as the
governor-elect. And now his
pleasant dream of being a demo
cratic hero has turned to a night
mare of treachery.

The dispatches from Washing
ton say the railroads and broth
erhood representatives are get
ting together in their discussion
of the demands of the employees,
with every prospect for an ami
cable adjustment of the situation
by the opening of the new year.
The whole question, could just as
easily been adjusted last Septem-
Der if the railroad presidents had
condescended to meet the repre-
sentatives of their employees in a
spirit of justice and equity.

The Ne'er-Do-Well.

The Sunday attraction at the
Electric, with a matinee and
evening performance, is "The
Meier -Do-Well," by Rex Beach,
the spectacular drama filmed by
the Selig Company, featuring
Wheeler Oakman and Kathleen
Williams and an all star cast.
The hero is Kirk Anthony, a
college graduate, a veteran foot
ballplayer, and since graduating,
the coach of his university team.
On the evening following a foct-
ball victory, the last of the sea-
son, Kirk and others start out to
celebrate. Late that night he
finds himself on shipboard, ard
when he awakens he is without
money and without baggage.
During the voyage Kirk becomes
acquainted with woman a Mrs
Stephen Cortlandt - whom he
learns to admire very much. She
is really a diplomatic agent Of
great influence. One day while
Kirk is out hunting he meets in
a forest bower a Spanish girl
who is known only as "ChiQuita"
and falls desperately in love with
her, and tries vainly to discover
her identity. The story of his
making good, of his winning of
Chiquita despite the counter
plottings of Mrs. Cortlandt, of
the clearing of his name, and OF
the final decisive intervention in
Panamanian affairs of old Dar-
win K. Anthony, is strongly en-
crossing and varied by many
richly humorous episodes. Chi
quita is by far the most charm
ing feminine character Rex Beach
has drawn. and Kathlyn Williams
as Edith Cortlandt is an exceed
ingly convincing and fascinating
type.

The Arizona Gazette of Ph,

The Arizona Gazette of Phoe-
nix has finally aroused itself
sufficiently to realize that a live
evening paper with a complete
news service would find a good
field in all northern Arizona,
which at present is only supplied
by daily papers outside the state.
The Gazette is now receiving the
full associated press reports and
if it will devote a little more en-
ergy. to giving general state
news, and less to rabid partisan
ship, it will discover that the
reading public in northern Arr
zona will appreciate it's efforts.
Being an evening paper it can
cover all this territory early the
following morning, which makes
it a valuable news medium.
