County Jail Birds
Banquet On Beef,
Then Smoke Cigars

There was no turkey or flXings with
the Thanksgiving dinner at the county
jail and when the los prisoners par
took of the noon feed they found the
menu was the same as on other
Thursdays.
However, the county prisoners had
a plenty They had boiled beef, po-
tatoes, gravy, bread and coffee. -

McShane, but it was impossible on
account OF the high cost of living.

enough to have friends on the outside
of the Jail Jared better than the mass
of the inmates. A number of these
persons were supplied with chicke
cake. pie and choice dainties, sent in
during the early morning. Quite a
quantity of cigars was donated by
outsiders and these were distributed
among the prisoners.
With the prisoners Thanksgiving
was the same as any other day. They
arose at the usual hour, did up the
cell and corridor work and then sat
around during the day, the monotony
being broken only by the calls to

Japan Does Not Like
To Be Told Anything
By Younger Nation

7 European nations are large agnos-
tic in thought rather than religious,
said Dr. Henry C. Mabie of Boston,
who is in Omaha speaking under the
auspices of the Baptist Brotherhood
Of Omaha. He spoke this morning
at Grace Baptist church, Tenth and
Arbor streets. His subject was
christianity and the World War"
He blamed the agnosticism of the
European thought largely for the
present warning condition of Europe,
holding that if these people really
were Christians at heart they would
not be fighting today.
DR.. Mabie has travelled for twenty
five years in Europe and in the
Orient, travelling much in Japan and
China. He spoke of Japan and China
as the awakening nations, and traced
their progress in adopting the Chris
tan religion. He said one of the diff
Iiculties the missionaries encounter in
Japan is that Japan feels its dignity
in being so old nation.
"Why should you come here and
endeavor to teach us religion, when
America is so young nation and we
are so old nation?" is what the Japa-
nese say to the American mission
aries.

HERE COMES SANTA CLAUS
Reasons
Why We
Are Thankful


N the year for which this
L day Of Thanksgiving is
set there are many reasons
for which we should be very,
very thankful.
Bountiful crops, good
health, happy homes, towns
and cities free from wars
ravages, and a kindly Provi-
dence-all contribute great
ly in making this Thanks
giving the happiest of our
lives.
And also, in this oppor-
tune season, we may be
permitted to set forth some
of the reasons which enable
us as a store to find abun-
dant cause for thanksgiving.
Not only the time and the
circumstances allow it, but in
a real and substantial sense
the interests Of our friends
and patrons are so linked
with us as to make it mat
ter of concern to them.
1t is of Importance to the
man and woman who by their
choice of this store, give it
support and the strength that
it is able to devote to their
interest in return, that the
store on which they depend,
should have not only the de-
sire to serve, but the ability.
A store and its patrons form
a mutualized institution; the
patrons give the strength to
the store and the store uses
it for them. 1t cannot be
strong without them; they
lack certain elements of
strength without it.
For that reason it is of con-
Germ, not only to US, but also
to the general public into
whose homes our merchan-
dising service goes, that our
business enjoys a marked in
crease in volume t h i S
Thanksgiving over that Of
last Thanksgiving.
In>the fact of this business
increase we find particular
cause for Thanksgiving. The
increase is an increase in
strength, an increase in the
ability to serve the communi-
ty, service which is de-
signed for the benefit of the
community and its citizens
and therefore Of concern to
them.
This prosperity is not only ma
tcrial to US. 1t is important to
the public. 1t means not only the
success of our store as a business
institution, but power to il as an
instrument of public benefit.

The enemies of Sheriff New
man must be hard pushed for an
argument to defeat him for re-
election when they have to re-
sort to circulating the lie that he
is a booze-fghter. The man who
started the story is careful not
to make himself known. While
the editor of this paper is partic-
ularly friendly to the Sheriff, we
will be glad to print a communi-
cation from any one who will
sign his name saying he has seen
Sheriff Newman under the infu-
ence of liquor or has even seen
him take drink since he has
been in Office. Every bootleg
ger in the county is fighting Lee
Newman. which is the best tes-
timonial needed that he is the
right man for the law-abiding
people to continue in office.

The election laws of the state
of Arizona are disgrace to our
boasted civilization, and Gov.
Hunt should not receive the vote
of any red -blooded citizen who
wants a few suffrage privileges
without being hedged roundabout
with some fool legislation. The
governor signed the bill because
it had for it's object the perpetu-
alton of the democratic machine,
and with no thoug hit of the rights
of the people. Gov. Hunt was
not thinking of the laboring man
and his rights when he signed
these election laws; he was think
ing only of the democratic ma
chine that had to be preserved.
The Governor is the friend of la
Dor and equal rights only when
those interests do not clash with
the democratic machine, but he
is for democratic supremacy first
last and all the time. The cry of
friend of labor" is simply the
decoy to get republican votes to
help elect democrats to office,
The Winslow mail., 1916-09-29

More important to Winslow at
the present time than the elec-
tion of any man to Office is the
question of more houses for the
increasing population. At the
present time there is not a va
cant house in town, and at least
a score of families are temporar-
lily quartered in one or two rooms
waiting for a house to be vacat-
ed. If local capital cannot be
interested in building houses to
rent, it might be good plan to
organize building and loan as
sociation, which would afford an
easy method for the people to
build their own homes. Some
thing must be done to provide
more housing accommodations
for the people who have to live
in Winslow.

We are not hearing so much
from the democratic press about
the failure of Mr.. Hughes talks
to arouse any interest or enthu-
siasm. With the passing of the
days that gave the people time
to dispassionately digest his re-
marks the swelling tide of popu-
lar approval alarmed the Wilson
managers, and now the Presi-
dent, all his Cabinet and demo
cratic spell binders are buster
than a woolly dog with humble
bee, in their efforts to check the
Hughes boom. Evidently Mr..
Hughes has aroused both inter.
est and enthusiasm in the demo.
cratic camp at least.

]. H. CHAPMAN, Editor.
Friday, : September 20, 1916.

Republicans of Arizona ought
to help the democrats elect some
of the state ticket out of graft
tude for the present election law
which bears Gov. Hunts approx
al and signature, because it con-
tains no provision preventing one
from voting a republican ticket.
1t might have been worse, and
made it high crime or treason to
vote the republican ticket. Let
republicans be thankful that they
are still permitted to reside in
Arizona, even though the demo
Gratis have restricted their party
and suffrage privileges on a par
with the niger in the south.
