Arizona Asbestos

THE PROVERBIAL I'LL WIND
may blow to Arizona's advantage as
a result of the recent order in u
Gil of the Canadian government,
which placed an embargo on the
shipment of asbestos from Canadian
to other than British ports. This
order, which permits shipments Oh
special license to Great Britain's al
lies, may prove a temporary hard
ship to American manufacturers, but
will undoubtedly stimulate the pro-
duction of asbestos in Arizona, and
the prospecting OF serpentine forma-
tons in the west with the possible
discovery and development of other
asbestos deposits of commercial i'm
portance.
Canada heretofore has supplied
the bulk of this material. Should
this order be continued and the war
prolonged, Arizona's position in the
asbestos market may be made secure
and other western states be given
an opportunity to add another non
metallic to their lists.

ernor the Democrats had had in that State
since 1892. He was looked upon as a white
hope of the Democratic party, and he exer-
cised a compelling influence upon party &C
ton. MARITIME had received about twenty
five per cent of the vote cast in a primary
held in 1910, a larger number than any other
had secured, and Gov. Wilson-who hated
James Smith, Undetermined that this was
was two years ago in Washington before Will
son arrived there, and in the interval he had
come to believe-and rightly-that a Sena-
tor of the United States should be something
more than a rubber stamp for the President,
even for the President of his own party faith.
So Senator MARITIME never jumped when the
White House whip was cracked. He never
took orders over the telephone from Tumul-
ty. Even a Speech from the throne as in
the case Of the Panama Canal tolls, failed to
swerve him from what he deemed his duty
to his oath, to his conscience and to the Dem
ocratic platform. Such a Senator, of course,
is unthinkable to the Wilson idolaters and to
Wilson himself. So Wilson determined to
destroy MARITIME.
One Wescott-who has been described as
having made the best speech at Baltimore in
1912 and the poorest at St. Louis in 1910
was designated as the instrument Of Presi-
dental vengeance, and he entered the primary
in opposition to MARITIME. All the power of
the federal administration, all the force OF
the State government, all the influence OF the
Presidents personal desires were turned loose
to do the work of destruction.
But MARITIME beat Wescott by more than
twenty-thousand.
Democratic leaders expect to carry New
Jersey for Wilson on the issue of State
If "State pride would ever affect
a political situation, it was in the recent prTn-
airy. MARITIME is not the type OF mar that a
State like New Jersey would normally prefer
to have represent her i'll the Senate. Yet She
preferred MARITIME with all his faults to Will
sons Wescott. That she will prefer Hughes
to Wilson on election day is a certainty.

The ardor with which Democratic cam

The ardor with which Democratic cam
paign managers are denounCing capitalists is
doing President Wilson no good, especially
since it is SO widely known that the President
is directing his own campaign, The day of
the wolfer is past. Every man who conducts
a business large enough to require more labor
than his own, is, to some extent, a capitalist.
The owner OF a small mill employing only a
half dozen helpers, is a capitalist with Just as
many cares and fully as many difficulties as
the operator Of a plant that employs thousands.
The farmer who keeps two or three hired men
through the summer is a capitalist. The bar
Der who employs assistants, is a capitalist. In
cases out OF a hundred, the relations be-
tween employer and employee are satisfactory
to both. The employee knows that the con-
tinuation of his wage depends upon the pros
perity of his employer. The wage Garner is,
therefore. more interested in the maintenance
of an economic policy that will insure continu-
ed prosperity for the mill in which he works,
than he is in the reward of deserving Dem
~ocrats."

Facts are sometimes stranger than
fiction. At the recent state fair at
Albuquerque Roosevelt county took
more blue ribbons than Eddy coun-
ty had exhibits, yet, by reason OF
having a score card that was more
mysterious than the mind OF the New
Mexico G.. O. F., we could not win
the prize for the best county ex-
hibit over Eddy county, This is a
sort OF a paradox. We could win
all the blue ribbons on the exhibits
shown when shown separately, but
when shown collectively, they evid-
emily lost much of their merit. No
thing like having the score card
right.-Portales Valley News.
