To a young man away from
home, friendless and forlon in a
great city, the hours of peril are
those between sunset and bed
time. The moon and stars seem
more evil in single hour than
the sun in whole day circuit.
The poets visions of evenings are
all compact O' tender and sooth-
ing images. II brings the wand
crer TO his home, the child 10 its
mothers arms, the OK TO his stall
and the weary laborer 10 his rest.
But the tender-hearted youth
who is thrown upon the rocks of
pitileSS city, and stands home
less among a thousand homes,
the approach of evening brings
with it an aching sense of lOneli-
ness and desolatiOn which comes
down on the spirit like darkness
upon the earth. In this mood
his best impulses become a snare
TO him, and he is led astray be-

The Troubles of the Railroads

Everybody has had trouble Of one
kind and another the past four months.
The farmer could not get to town
indeed, can not yet, otherwise than on
foot; the town man had the devils own
time getting about and keeping his
woodpile above the freezeout point.
The railroads have really had the worst
time of all keeping their roads open,
which they are compelled to do ac-
cording to law. For three months
they bucked the snow, but no sooner
had the snow began TO subside than
mud slides, rock slides and washouts
began to multiply with most alarming
and disquieting frequency. Now that
the latter causes OF trouble have be-
come less frequent the rocks that have
been loosened by the melting SHOWS,
the freezing nights and thawing days
begin to come down the mountain
sides in way to make life anything
but pleasant Had the huge rock that
rolled down the mountain side yester-
day morning, said to be as large as a
house and weighing a hundred thou
sand tons, struck a passenger train, one
can only guess what the loss might
have been. Fortunately, beyond get
ting it of the track it did no damage.
But the possibility Of an engine striking
a boulder gives an engineer the shivers.
This danger, however, is miaimized by
exercising the greatest care in the dan
ger spots, which are all known by the
experienced railroad men, and accounts
for much Of the delay in arrival Of
trains.

Why Not POindexter!

If the Hon. Miles Poindexter, can
didate for reelection to the United
States senate, has sometimes been too
independent for hidebound republicans
it may be recalled to his credit that his
every action has been open and above
board and his vote never has been
tainted with private interest. He has
never crookt the hinges OF the knee
that thrift might follow fawning. He
never pretended TO be an abject slave
of party politics as reflected in the die
tum of party boss. Can not one be a
man in the highest sense of the word,
an honest, useful public servant, unless
he agrees in all things with you and
me? Just remember, if he agrees with
you and me he might have to disagree
with the majority of mankind. Miles
Poindexter has never tried to eyade
responsibility for any vote he ever cast
in the United States senate. He has
always commanded respect and atten-
ticn, and in ability averages up near
the top. He differs with his colleague,
Senator Jones, on the question of pre-
paredness. Senator Poindexter believes
in preparedness not one whit less hon
estly than Senator Jones opposes pre-
paredness. Senator Poindexter voted
with the democrats for the government
armor plate plant Monday of this week.
Does anyone who believes in prepared
ness object to this2 II you do, recall
the fact that the American amor plate
makers sold armor plate to Japan for
500 per ton less than they sold the
same necessary article to the United
States government. This may take the
edge of your objection. Mr.. Poindex-
ter has always stood up manfully for the
just rights and interests OF the state Of
Washington. Would you ask him to
do more? This paper will advocate
the return Of Mr.. Poindexter to the
United States senate on the republican
ticket because he is in favor of pre-
paredness and economy, and because
ne is in favor Of a non political tariff
commission to adjus, rates on some
thing approximating a scientific basis.
These are the two most important
questions before the present congress.
And then, too, this paper favors his
return because he belongs to the cas-,
side Of the state.

Roosevelt the Only Republican Who
Can Win

An editorial from the Spokesman
Review epitomises the political sit
uation. There are a dozen favor
lite sons for president, for any Of
whom nomination as president on the
republican ticket would be world
enough, but if the republican party
really wants to put up man, not only
to run, but to win. the choice is mar
rowed to one, and that is Roosevelt,
whether you like him or not. There
are a dozen men We would gladly sup
port for president on the republican
ticket, but only one in whose candi-
dacy there is hope of success. The
S.-R. states the situation in a nutshell.
international complications in Eu-
rope, the Orient and Latin America
have combined to create the most Try
ing conditions with which this nation
and government have been confronted
since 1865.
Farsighted, largeminded and vigor-
Gus policies are the pressing need OF
the United States during the next FIVE
years in our relations with England.
Germany, Japan and Mexico.
Such policies can be formulated and
enforced only by statesman equipped
with virile Americanism, with well
rounded training in public affairs, with
long experience in political life.
Republicanism. in naming its man
next June for the presidency during
1717-21, ought to take these facts into
consideration and nominate the repub-
lican who best satisfies such require
ments and can make the strongest ap-
peal to the nation against wisconsin.
Make no mistake as to the strength
of President Wilson, if nominated for
reelection next November. The re-
united republican party, even If sup
ported by the preponderance both OF
the republicans and the progressives OF
1918, will need every vote it can mus
ter and every ounce of fighting ability.
There is an immense number Of indie
pendent voters who care nothing for
party but everything for country and
patriotism. These Americans will vote
only for that presidential nominee who
appears to them most likely to sustain
the honor of America and safeguard
the rights aud interests of Americans.
Hughes of the United States su-
preme court and Root of New York
York would each be a good nominee
for the Republicans. and either would
make a capital president. But Root
lacks Roosevelts force and the stand Of
Hughes toward national issues is IN
known.
Roosevelt is the strongest and most
popular OF living Americans. He is
our best equipped man to deal with
the trying international conditions. He
is the strongest man the country has
for pushing those policies to success
that are needed now and will be need
ed for years to come. Under Presi-
dent Wilson We are drifting into war.
A firm hand on the helm Of our ship
Of state would have prevented lot Of
the things that Germany has done to
the United States. That strong hand
is Theodore Roosevelt's. The repub-
Icans. if they wish to make sure Of
winning the next presidency and hav-
ing the safest man at the head Of
sfiairs, should nominate Roosevelt.

ter this year. Such spirit as this is what makes good school
 For cooperation. for school spirit for planning good things and doing them, for improvement and united ef- fort, no one-teacher district can claim the holors with Miss Blanche Brere- ton. normal and university trained teacher at Clear creek. Last year on visiting the school Miss Brereton ask ed whether the district would have any money for improvements and on being told that there would be q small amount she said that if given permission to use that she would surely interest the patrons enough to help out.
 "The building was small, poorly ceiled, poorly painted and was typical of many Arizona school houses, but if you were to visit this school now you would find the house enlarged an entrance porch, cloak room, a nice reading room having a reading table, two book cases, supply case, flowers and a sanitary heater. The building is newly painted and is furn. ished with the best of steel desks l The patrons donated Sl67 to the work. The school has an enrollmen, of %.
 What this district has done others can do and it is 10 be hoped that many others will follow the example of this district as we never can meas ure the effects of such environments upon the children that must be for many years of their lives in the school room.
 It was a pleasure to have visited during one trip so many schools with cut hearing the usual number of com plaints from pupils and patrons. II also was pleasure to note the school spirit and the interest taken. There are no bad schools where we have the right teacher and elre right community interest"
 In conclusion Superintendent Mil Ter said: "A school is exactly what the teacher with the help of the com munity makes it. The pupils are al ways ready to do their part when led rightly No teacher can get the best results unless the patrons stand for the good of the school"
