CAMPAIGN YEAR

This IS campaign year III the nation as well as the state. Beyond doubt the Demo cratic candidate for President will be Wood row Wilson and all democrats, regardless of factions, are ready and willing to enlist un- der his standard. No president, without single exception, has been beset by so many perplexing international questions and suffice to say our country, under the able guidance of the President, has steered safe neutral course toward the warning nations, at the same time demanding the recognition by all bel!igerents of the established rules of interna- tional warfare The President has his own ideas and opinions about preparedness but he endeared himself to the American people when he refused to join hands with Secretary Garrison to compel Congress, the representa- tiyes of the people, to follow his set program Woodrow Wilson is stronger today with the American people that any time during his administration.
 In the state it appears that Senator Ash rrst and Representative Hayden will be re- turned to Congress by increased majorities but the same rule does not apply to the re- i1lainder of the ticket.
 The democratic contest over Governor, Secretary of State, Supreme Court Judge and other minor state offices, promise to be lively, bu tive cannot agree with Dunbars Weekly, when the statement is made that ''the democrats who are endeavoring to create an opposition to Governor Hunt are only mak- ing trouble for the state ticket" Under the primary law of Arizona the choice of ma jority of the democratic voters in the primar- ies is the voice of the party. No man is big ger than his party. To say that unless Gov. Hunt is renominated the entire state ticket IS endangered is an admission that Governor Hunt is necessary to success, and democrats arc not likely to subscribe to such ulti- matum.
 The democratic primaries are open to all aspiring democrats and the voters will make the selection of the ticket in Septem- Der. That selection will be the democratic ticket chosen by majority of democrats in the state If voter is not willing to abide by that decision he had best register as an inde- pendent in the primary

Small politics and smaller

Small politics and smaller politicians received castignation long to be remember ed when in the United States Senate Thurs day John Sharp Williams of Mississippi ad- dressed himself to them for few minutes. Evidence of MT. Williamss ability has not been wanting in the past but on this occa- sion he asserted commanding leadership in body that has not been notable of late for high average of statesmanship.
 In his masterly arraignment of those who for political or personal ends are nagging the President into war with Great Britain, Germany or Mexico. MT. Williams was as ur1- sparing of Democrats as of Republicans. With courage equal to his candor he rebuk- ed denagogues on both sides of the chamber by. asserting that he would not shed drop of blood in a quarrel over business or property, even cotton, and as to the graver disputes over human life wantonly sacrificed, he insist ed that the matter must be left in the hands of a President entirely competent to deal with them
 We believe that MT. Williams speaks not only for the better part of the South but for the better part of the entire country. He IS as bold as truth and as circumspect as jus tice. Formerly 1t was not unusual for Sen ator of the United States to rise above partis- anship and address himself to the welfare of the whole people. In his revival of standards long forgotten by those who play politics and ignore duty, MT. Williams honors his coun- try, his State and himself

ought to reflect on the service Of Washington in the making of this na- tion and on the attitude of Washing ton toward the future of this nation.
 Washington a Seer.
 Since the Spanish war the Farewell Address, once classic and apparent ly just about as much alive as most classics, has fallen into disfavor. We don't hear of it's being pointed to with pride as often as we did.
 Perhaps if we do go back to it we shall find that Washington, besides being soldier and statesman, was a seer.
 And seer is much more interesting than little boy that chops down, cherry tree or man that has never told lie.
 A seer has way of projecting him. self into the future and finding 8 new life there.
 AS prophet Washington is vital force today. But he is a force that has been consciously and deliberately disregarded.
 Washington, the hero of Valley Forge, was essentially man of peace. He saw that the happiness and secu- rity of this country lay, just as the happiness of an individual did, in a policy of noninterference. And as soon as this country ceased to follow this policy Washington fore saw complications. On the surface it seems strange that a man whose inheritance and ways of

Apache Forest Highway connecting the mIn-s ing districts of Greenlee county with Springer ville This highway will tap the largest un- broken forest in the United States, the natural outlet for which is along the southern slope to railroad connection at Clifton. Under the terms of the Bill the Federal Government is to be reimbursed for the amount advanc- ed for the construction of the proposed For est Highways from money received annually from the sale of the Forest products. Sen ators Ashurst and Smith are cooperating in this important matter and Western Senators and representatives are fully alive to the inn portance of the plan to the Western States where the large, and at present inaccessible forests, are located Natural resources worth millions and millions of dollars are now ly- ing dormant and without value for the lack of transportation facilities. Greenlee county is fortunate in having at its door the great Apache and Dati reserves tributary to one of the largest mining districts in the state. The Secretary of Agriculture is thoroughly fami- liar with the ideal conditions in this section, where a ready market is awaiting the connect ing highway link with the forests, and upon the passage of the bill through Congress, the Clifton road will be assured at an early date.

The agitation in behalf of making a tar if on imports permanent feature of our eco homie system has been strengthened by President Wilson's declaration for compro- mise body designed to gather data on trade and production, but lacking the power to draw schedules Such body, if made up of the right kind of men, can be of service to the country, by laying before the public reliable information regarding foreign trade. It also if made up of the wrong kind of men, can be the source of much mischief, by giving official sanction of false facts. The only ex- cuse that protectionists themselvea claim for protection Is to meet the difference between the labor cost in this country and i'll foreign countries. A commission that compares the labor cost in the poorest managed factory in this country with the best managed factory in England or Germany, may state facts, but they will be false as basis for the comparison of the manufacturing of the two countries. The specifications purportlng to come from the President, as given in the Washington dis patches did not include this investigation in- to labor cost here and abroad. Without such. an investigation its conclusions would be as useless as blicd mans opinion of a sunset. And with such specifications the value of the investigation will depend entirely upon the personnel of the commission. The sole reason why the Commission on Industrial Relations accomplished anything worth while was be- cause it was led by man who knew how, and was not afraid. Would a tariff commits sion be likely to be headed by Frank Walsh And cd those who have been clamor ing for tariff commission wish to have the real facts presented to Congress and the pub lie?

HAS SUFFERED
 FROM TRADITION
Modern Writer Gives Us New Ver' sion of the Character of
 Washington.
Great Soldier as He Is Universally Acknowledged, He Was Also a Seer-DeathIess Champion of the Rights of Hu-
 

N A ORE than any other American N statesman, more than any
 has suffered from tradition, writes John D. Barry in the Washing ton Times.
 In fact, I can't think of any other great man in the history of the world who has been damaged in just the same way, through being made to ap- pear so good.
 The reason is that he has been pre- eminently the children's hero.
 He is distinguished victim of the deceit we practice on children in the name of education.
 Only the very good boys and girls care for the story of Washington and the cherry tree.
 The others, the majority, are bored, or amused, or puzzled.
 !, And then there is the saying, dinned into the ears of American childhood, Washington never told lie."
 It alone. alienates vast numbers of children from Washington. In their little hearts 1t finds no answering echo, no enthusiastic desire for emula- ton.
 For truth telling, much as we love It in children, and much as we labor to graft it on those highly imaginative minds, is often a virtue that develops only with years, related to tntelli- gence and to mature character.
 It derives it's beauty largely from association with other qualities more sympathetic.
 Do Real Damage to Truth.
 Self-assertive truth-tellers often seem rigid in character. They do great damage to truth by making it seem, not beautiful, as it should be, but hideous.
 Even in minds of maturity, to the reputation of Washington there still clings suggestion of the comic.
 Thackeray did not help the situation when he introduced the youthful Washington into ''The Virginians" as a highly self-conscious and priggish colonial.
 There is a fine chance for a new historian of Washington, one who will bring out the real man.
 Owen Mister made a start some years ago, when he published a little book. emphasizing Washington's more human qualities. But the book was too slight to be comprehensive. MT. W'sfer 6@av vet write the complete .s ''''' fef by the world of today. j.. .r5, nf all times. the world

It IS self evident that Arizona Is entering upon year of unequaled prosperity the pri- mary cause of which is the high price of cop per, the output of Arizona's chief industry. The prosperity is being shared alike by the corporations and their army of employees which in turn is experienced in every line of endeavor throughout the state Employees connected with the mining industry in Ari- zona are at this time the highest paid miners in the world It was not ever thus. In the halcyon days of our prosperity the wise and thrifty employee will start savings account against the day of diversity and stagnant copper market. After all it is not SO much what we make as what we save that really counts in the end.

 There is no similarity between Mir. Gar rison and Mir. Bryan. The erstwhile secre- tary of war fights in the open. Stabbing friends in the back is strictly Bryanesque. His first known offense of this kind was when he turned against his friend Jim Dahlman of Omaha. Since then any number of friends have fallen by his treachery.

Congressman Hayden, of Arizona, has introduced a bill in the House of Representa- tives, endorsed by the Department of Agricul- ture, having for its purpose the immediate construction of highways within National Forests where such highways will bring the products of the forests to ready market Among the projects included in the recom- mendations of the Secretary of Agriculture for construction for this purpose, is the
