First they noticed Inal the sun seemed to follow them and that their wings grew more brilliant in the strange light, and that all around them the air grew warmer and warmer and they enjoyed the new motion of their wings and oh how they loved the beau tiful light, but soon the sun seemed to sink behind the mountain and every thing grew dark and cold and then how they wanted their fairy home and then the good Mother Earth heard their cry and her great mother heart went out to the lonely ones and she called them all together and took them into the forest and into the wings of the butterfly ! queen, who was SO lovely and she

Whence Judge Kibbey's Strength.

One feature of the state campaign which has prised many politicians both republicans and demo- the great strength developed by Judge Kbbey in the labor of the south, especially in the rock bound Warren District. But that is not prlsius when consider the record Judge H.bhey made governor in the only labor dispute that during his term of office, and which to the advantage of both parties prevented by his frmness and fairness from coming to head.
 Both the Copper Queen Consolidated Mining com pany and its striking employees glad after it an over that at that critical juncture there was a governors chair fearless enough fair enough bloodshed and great economic loss.
 We think that labor and the corporations both better than each thinks the other is that their anupathy to each other is based largely suspicion that the other wants something that it should not rightfuy have. IL is that there is a good deal of human nature in both: that they and We and all of all get sometimes, without a proper regard for the rights of the other fellow.
 But when labor or capital learning that it cannot get an wants understands that is going to re- oeive absolutely just treatment; that the other will be allowed to over-reach it settles down into a state Of satisfaction that is profitable in the long both. That is why labor showing it's friend lness Co Judge Kibbey whose conduct in the Bsbee trouble has received the encomium of so much of a radical Mother" Jones' and we believe has en- listed for him also the good will of the mining com pany.
 Nor Is t forgotten in the southern part of the that on one occasion when the lives of Americans were threatened by Mexican uprising at Cananea, Judge Hibbey. then governor, ordered the Arizona Rangers to enlist such assistance they could and hurry Co the aid of the threatened Americans. He wasted no time in communicating with the president the secretary of the interior his immediate superior or The state department. He communicated alone with the captain of the Rangers It time to unwind red tape or observe international amenities
 These and other acts of Judge Kibbey. character istc of him, well his earnest straightforward speeches in this campaign, in sharp to the frothiness and indirection of Senator Ashurst are attracting 10 him large element of democrats and Independents

Col. Meclintock's Statement

Col. MeclintocL's Statement To the Editor of the Republican, Sir would ask The privilege oi your columns concerning the argument at the prohibition meeting on the court house plaza, Sunday afternoon Tn effect the meeting was a polit- ical debate, though I had expected merely an exposition of the ideas of the legislative candidates for the lead ng two parties Chairman StOneman uf the Democratic State Central com nittce made the broad assertion that to the democrats should oe given all credit for the enactment of prohihi- ton. My own reply in an article printed Monday morning in justice should have had more than the pass Ing reference given. Tn substance it was that tho democratic party had been in control of the legislative branch Of the state government al the Constitutional convention and a; the two succeeding state legislatures and in each of those bodies not only had failed but had refused to enact any prohibition legislation Especially .s this true of tie last leaisla ure which had only one republican mem 1 her and which. through it's several l sessions made no response to the pleodines of a prohibition committee ] tAAftA t Asi " if Atl~H'fA AN sup Hl Aitf 1oles known to exist in the prohibi- ! ton amendment and which absolutely i failed to obey a mandate from the ] people at large to the same effect. l Incidentlv Mir. Baxter was quoted as stating that the democrats at large were ignorant scrI1s." This report Is very far from the truth. MT Acnff i in trying to excuse the democratic ] legislature for falling to obey the mandate of the people with regard 70 prohibition. stated that he and his Maricoua County colleagues had done their best but that they had been lalked by legislative mollycoddles and pussyfooiers" MT. Baxter re- piled that it made little difference how prohibition had been baked in the legislature and. furthermore. it made no differnce whether those responsible were called mollvcoddles. pussvfooters or even ignorant scrubs still theN had failed in doing their duty to thS people who had commanded them tf enact legislation to make prohibition effective under the constitutioua Amendment.
