A GREAT AUTOMOBILE FEAT.

The automobile has scored notable triumph in E. G. Bakers transcontinental trip With single companion,
 newspaper man who along merely as passenger, s Baker made the distance from Los Angeles to New York nearly $500 miles, in seven and onehalf days.
 That is only twice time taken by the fastest through rains which use route more than two hundred miles shorter And in some important respects the automobile and drove it every mile of the way himself It takes P locomotives to make the trip and many changes of ,rews The train it must be remembered ha smooth rack all the way and the automobile has to travel thru mountains deserts plains and swamps with all sorts Of highways and sometimes highways at all Mr. Baker vas delayed by mud sand by rocky trails by the blowing put of tires in the hot desert by accidental loss of fuel md oil And yet long sections of the trip he made etter time than the United States mails letter mailed
 Los Angeles he started and addressed to him al Dodge City, Kan, arrived there two hours after him. post card was mailed to him Empors Kan just after le had passed through addressed to him at New York Jity He beat it by an hour.
 This is not only sporting achievement for the driver fl means something for the development of the auomo pile AS test of mechanical perfection and endurance
 worth incomparably more than all the purposeess rae 'ng of high power cars on speedways For this was
 andard car such as hundreds thousands of American itizens are driving every day And if such car can ross the continent now in days and half what nay be expected after few more years of automope yolution and improved highways.

ARE WOMEN GOOD SPORTS?

A Good Sport" is generally understood as a person
 ho plays game for the games sake and is cheer

 tua power blaming his failure fate the other fe
 ow He devoes all his strength getting ahead again. Moreover he keeps the rules game and to get unfair advantages.
 Chicago woman killed herself the other day because she had lost in business feared bankrupt " She left ten-yearold child be taken by other people She had put all she had her
 nd had not been able make pay She discour- spite of possible to urge it wasn't really sport ing" thing for her pride than for her
 little daughter, it? And the woman only thirty ,ix-just splendid age pick herself up and wrest success from failure
 This is an extreme But there is the who to sneak out of paying fvecent fare for child and she insued when the conducos insists upon the rule There is the woman-her name is egon-who in line She tries ahead of others, and insulted when told to take her proper place.
 The this lack of unfarness the part of obvious People who sheltered and kept form wholesome competition become selfish They look at life from the indviduastic of the cooperative point f view Business women are better sports than home women chiefly this But if all expect upon their rights rather than upon their prvi 9ges they learn carry the responsibilities which come with rights cheerfully to play the fair md to begin over smiling when they lose.

THE CITY ELECTION

It is difficult dsassociate partisan politics from mn ncipal elections but the evils connected with such as sociaon surely mnimized in the ballotng Monday when selection made by the voters of Bisbee of off
 cias in whom the entire community will repose conf dence. Good were chosen for their respective du ties whether these candidates who failed of election would have made better public servants is neither here there. majority of Bisbee citizens expressed their conviction that Mayor Adams was entitled to another term; that City Marshall Allison was preemnently fitted for his duties; that City Butler had proved his worth empharcaly and should be retained three ment most complimentary
 That Bisbees civic future for the next two years will be progressive and prosperous than during pre- cedng two years seems assured The three reelected officials possess the great advantage of previous exper fence They know full well those several former poll cies in their several capacities which were either illad 1ised inherently bad therefore unworthy of perpe uation. The official is he who permits himself to ride hobbes who dsmisses without regret any and all which antagonze the public welfare; whose administration shaped for the good all the community which he guardianship r the field for which he chosen by the people.
 The citizens of Bisbee who fail this time ar effort made by outside interests to drag community into outside troubles is blind really peril Self preservation the first law of life applies municipal ity well individual Proof that Bisbee is abun dantly able of her affairs furnished by the prosperity their feeling security and contentment. Discontentment and insecurity car arise solely through the machnaons of foreign nuen ces Mayor Adams already that first ir his is the welfare of the city which again has re posed in him her faith and her welfare But he needs to feel that and stand shoulder to shoul der him whatever action is necessary insure discontinued security welfare here Assurance of uni fled backing brought the Mayors attention by men and women who actively take part municipal af fairs He welcomes and needs their assistance Why withhold it any any degree? Why not make it whole hearted? None of the newiyelected officials be any better public the public decrees through actual cooperation.
 Public sentiment in Bisbee unalteraby opposed tc clements is the duty of the city officials to bansh such elements the duty of all good citizens aid the officials An indignant citizens who goes no further Tipping his Indignation is poor sort of being There has much of this pindignaton ex pressed in Bisbee recently Militant indignation what counts
 Both civic officials and citizens city to day is in comparatively excellent condition Why not make it unquafedly excellent? The time to is now.

IN POL ITS Being Original And Culled Notes From Exchanges Up
 on Interesting Subjects

The chief interest, as a result of the
 municipal election on Monday in
 Jhlch a Democratic mayor and com non council was returned to .tlIice. is he distribution or the spells. That
 here will be many applicants for the
 'everal jobs, within the disposal of
 ne council and mayor is assured and
 here will be considerable activity in
 he city central committee and among
 he members of the council in behalf
 ,f the several candidates.
 For City Attorney L. E. Whitney.
 resent chairman of the Democratic
 ity central Committee. appears to be
 sadlng the field. Whitney has been
 admitted to the Arizona bar for some
 aonths and has always been active
 or the present administration. He is
 -lso credited for Ne successful man ter In which the campaign was car lied on.
 Another prospective applicant for he city attorneyship is Sam Kyle. Owing to the latters attitude last year when the question of appropriat- ing money for park purposes was be- Ing considered by the council, it is ~oubtful whether he can secure the endorsement of the central committed.
 The Democrats, or at least a con siderable number of the city central committee, are in favor of the s,,Sils system and declare that there are plenty of good Democrats to fill all of the positions within the gift of the council. If this policy is put through -t would appear that neither E. l. fianigan, the present city attorney. Tho is Republican, and R. A. Ziese- mer, the city engineer, who is also a Republican, will qualify under the rules of the same.
 For the latter position J. S. Me Nelsh is being advanced. McNeish is 2 prominent civil engineer and has been officiating in Bisbee for a great many years. He was county surveyor two terms and has always been a Democrat. It is thought his chances are excellent for appointment to the position, if he desires it.
 It is not likely that the fire depart | ment will be touched in the slightest | degree. That department of the city has been kept out of politics for a l number of terms and its present state of efficiency is mute testimony as to the advantages of that policy. So | Barney Norton may be expected to ! as chief of the department.
 In the police department, Chief lanes Allison being reelected, there will be no changes. The present force las served for many months and aided he chief materially in pursuing his gell-known, vigorous policy and af making friends for his administration.
 For sanitary inspector A. E. Shep- ,ard is considered a likely candidate 0 succeed himself. He was a candi- late before the primary against C. X Bailey for the nomination of super ntendent of streets and was only beaten by two votes. It is very prob Ible that the council will reward him " continuing him in his present of ice.
 The street department. under the guidance of c. A. Bailey, may see con siderable change, though it is not bought Bailey will sacrifice any part If its present efficiency in building ID Q machine
 The central committee is expected 0 meet very soon and make several They will bc with interest.

Senator Ransden estimates the grand total loss

the loss from malaria al S694,9o4750 per year; the
total per capita loss from these two diseases being

Europe. II would have committed
Congress and the Administration 10
the absolutely absurd theory that the
transfer to government ownership Of
bottoms already engaged in trans
oceanic trade would constitute an in
crease in our transportation facili-
ties TO foreign ports, or would do 9th
erwise than shift from one shoulder
to another the burdens which make it
impossible for ships under American
registry to compete with those flying
the flags Of other maritime powers.
The bill as Il will doubtless pass
the Senate and be agreed 10 by the
House does not so directly vitiate
principle and disregard pregnant
facts as did that for which it is a sub
stitute We will not say that II is
better than when in the shape which
led Senator Clark and his associates
to stand out against all the influences,
political and personal, which were
brought to bear in its favor. But that
it is not as bad as it was is an ad-
mission which can be made without
violence to our settled conviction that
all legislation in this direction VIII

less it shall be preceded or accom-
panied by such changes in our exist
ing registration and shipping laws as

terms as to the expense Of operating
their vessels with their British

Women of All Parties Begin Work for Hughes
Meeting
Adopts o Work Started.

The Executive Committee Of the
women's National Committee of the
Hughes Alliance. at a meeting at the
Hotel Astor. July II. formally started
the campaign to unite the women
throughout the country Of all parties
in both suffrage and non-suffrage
states in support of Mr.. Hughes.
The committee has started to Sc
cure in the shortest possible time a
central committee of one thousand.
an enrolment of one hundred thou
sand, and a preliminary budget of
500 900.
The constitution OF the Women's
National Committee of the Hughes AL
lance was adopted this afternoon.
The constitution declares the sole OBJ
ject Of the Alliance to be to aid in the
election Of Charles E. Hughes to the
Presidency. Any woman in the coun-
try may become a member upon the
approval of her signed enrolment
blank by the executive committee,
There are to be no dues or member
ship fees required for enrolment, but
all members are invited to contribute.
The executive committee is empow-
cred to authorize the information Of
auxiliary, State. local. trade. or other
branch organizations in the Alliance
in such places and in such ways as
the executive committee may deter
mine
An interesting provision Of the con-
stitution is that no local branch or
auxiliary organization Of the ALI
ance shall be known or designated as
representing citizens Of any particu-
lar foreign extraction. This is in line
with the policy Of Americanism
which is to be a direct and dominant
issue Of the campaign.
The committee has begun an active
membership campaign throughout the
country This permits the enrolment
Of individuals in any part of the coun
try in the National Alliance. but doe:

organization Of State or local branch
