Although one may be Of the opin-
ion-and perhaps not without reason
that secret diplomacy more than
anything else served 20 bring US into
this war, although we know that Mex
leo killed many OF our citizens with
out any cause, although we take into
consideration that England herself
iuterfered with our trade and with
our mails, still that does not change
the fact tina, We are now az war with
Germany, and that we must do every
thing accordingly. Whatever We could

the extraordinary increase Of Ger
many's economic power that appears
70 all other lands as their great dan
ger. That is exactly wha, Mr. Will
son himself innocently admitted in
his Flag Day speech, without think
ing that after that all other motives
for our participation in this war be-
come of no consequence, and that he
left bare in that way the cause itself
for the whole war"

Williams Attorney Makes
 Good

Geo. w. Harben, Asst. Atty. Gen., has been reappointed for another two years by Hon. Wiley E. Jones. His services in the past two years have been highly commendable and his reappointment to this high position has been very gratifying to his many Will Hams friends. One of the first duties after his appointment was to approve the bond of an- other Williams boy who has made good, Jesse L. Boyce, son of our fellow townsman, c. E.. Boyce. The News is pleased to learn of the reappointment of MT. Harben, and also to have had some little part in the cleo tion of Jesse L. Boyce to the po- sition of State Auditor.

The speculation of the wise ones of Earth can hurt no one on Mars, if indeed there is any one on Mars, but we can make it uncomfortable for the imag- mary Man from Mars" Prof. Lowell who recently died at Flagstaff held that our sister planet is inhabited and that scientific agriculture is prac- ticed there. Now comes a Princeton professor with the claim that the temperture of Mars is always below zero. That will throw a chill into the high brow who is pictured by the cartoonist as taking notes on the "queerities" of Earth be- ings.

Man taps natures sources of energy and makes use of the power so acquired and gets swelled up over the result. He talks about mans mastery of nature. But when the old lady goes on a rampage in lightning, hurricane or earthquake she makes it plain that man is far from master. The storm that took it's toll of life in Oklahoma on January 4th., treated man and his works with the utmost contempt. After all, about the best man can do is to go with the breeze. If he is tactful he will make good use of it. If he tries to oppose it, he will be de stroyed.

AN OPEN LETTER
Centlenen:-

Gentlemen:-
 It certainly seems that no time should be lost for the Mer- chants and residents of Flag staff, and in fact the citizens of Coconino County at large, to at once take steps to organize a proper Chamber of Com merce which can only be of the greatest benefit to every resi- dent of this County.
 One hundred and six thous- and tourists visited the Grand Canyon last year which is some Sixty Five Thousand more than visited the other three Nation al Parks. This is approximately one half of the population of the entire State of Arizona.
 These people pass through Williams, all of them virtually, while Flagstaff is practically unknown to them, and it is high time that the Merchants of both Williams and Flagstaff should become alive to the vast sums these people might spend with our Merchants which our Merchants are positively neg lecting.
 This is not right either for our Merchants or for the Citizens who reside in this section.
 These tourists are spenders and would materially increase the wealth of our County if they but knew what we had to offer them, and both Flagstaff and Williams should be alive to the fact that the Grand Can yon is one of our biggest assets.
 The proper organization with necessary departments for the handling of such matters of Commercial interest complete in detail would be of the utter most benefit and our people should become fully awake to the situation and the wonder full possibilities of the value of such an organization.

MaXmilian Hardin IS, per haps, the only German who is not afraid to tell the truth and he tells it. He has been eXiled for his editorial utter ances but he cannot be silenc- ed. He now makes bold to say to his fellow countrymen that, 'Russia's resources cannot be exhausted, for indeed, the war proceeds only on the edges of this world power. England's hunger, moreover, is only catchword for which there is no foundation, while Frances lack of men can be balanced by British troops"

"MOUNTAINEER" MUCH
 IMPROVED

As forecasted in the News last week, the second number of the school paper, "The Mountaineer" was a decided improvement over the first. The editorial matter, tho excel lent before, was of a yet higher grade, and a very decided inn provement was made in the makeup and general mechan- ical. appearance. In the mat ter of proof reading, too, a de- cided improvement was made. By way of concrete comparison it may be said that the number of typographical errors was re- duced from thirty-nine to four teen. But in spite of this inn provement, it is quite a disap- pointment to the friends of the paper to find as many as four teen errors in it. However, if the same rate of improvement is continued for the next few issues, the paper will soon be- cone as nearly perfect me chemically and typographical ly as the very highest class of school publications.
 On the whole, the publishers of the Mountaineer are to be congratulated for what they have accomplished, and it is to be hoped that they will keep their journalistic ideal high and strive constantly to inn prove their welcome little pub lication.
 The merchants of Williams deserve a word of commenda- ton for the generous way in which they have supported the school paper. However, we may remark with justifiable pride, that public spirit is so strong with the business and professional men of Williams that any commendable public enterprise may bank upon their hearty support.
 Perhaps it will not be too pre- sumptious to add that the press of Williams, deserves some lit tie credit for the generous way in which it has offered to con- tribute all profit in the printing of the school paper, and do the work for bare cost.
 May The Mountaineer pros per and continue to improve.

Unselfishness

There is one war to be fought
which is greater war by far than
the war which confronts us at the
present, and If this war is brought
on, fought and won it will mean
world peace and happiness for
ever. 1t is a war against self and
selfishness.
If each one of us would try to
see the sorrows that overshadows
the hearts of the rest of the world,
we would at once become a pow
erful unit for world peace, better
home and working conditions and
less liable to gain fortune at the
expense Of some one else.
If you by birth and opportu-
nifty are placed in a position where
you can grasp great deal of this

your selfish desires, you are
placed in a position that will try

The Jack Pot
EDITOR THE TIMES:

EDITOR THE TINES:
The ]. w. w. people have been
suspected of getting money from
German spies. Is there not just as
good reasons to believe the jack
pot comes from the same source
as some of the obstinate ones are
strongly pro-German?
Am not surprised the Barons
disregard Sec. Bakers request, as
| recall years ago another secre-
tary warned the barons not to en-
croach on Indian timber lands.
Did they heed? Not they, but
stole the timber just as tho 1t had
been ". S. timber.
The next fall | was in Ashland,
Wis, and knowing the secretary
had just issued another warning
for the second year, stating that
timber cut on Indian land would
not be allowed to be removed.
To my surprise here they were,
very busy employing men to go
up on those very land to log. To
the protests of the men. they said,
You never mind. Fall the tim
Der till the soldiers come and /
guess they won't come"
The next spring expected
something to happen to the barons.
How foolish of me! Lumber baron
senator's could attend to a little
matter like that. A nice little
speech by Spooner, U think ask
ed for the passage of an enabling
act saying sometimes as in this
case loggers get over the line and
If this act did not go thru the logs
would be a total loss to all con-
cerned. Sure thing, All baron
senators knew how easy 1t was to
get over the lines the logs came
out. That was in the east. I
don't suppose there has been any
eneroaching in this state.
Early in this war the president
asked big business to sacrifice and
cooperate and loyalty help carry
on the war saying If our young
men enlist 1t is mostly in your in
terest. How are they doing It or
when did they ever do it in our
Civil war times? The bankers
nearly bled the country to death
and vexed the soul of our great
Lincoln.
While I am not one of these
men who are on strike, yet any
man who would be contented with
leaking, vermin-infested bung-
houses with no provision for dry
ing their clothing or even keeping
their beds dry is not worthy of the
name man.
Let us have peace and justice.

OFFER BONDS
FOR CARLINE

City Controller Shoemaker is
sued a call Tuesday for bids on
the city's issue of $4,000 utility
bonds, for constructing the new
municipal tideflats street car line.
Bids will be received at the
mayors office Sept. 20. No bids
calling for more than per cent
interest will be accepted.
Because the bond market is sur
feited with gilt edge bonds at
present, largely caused by war
bonds, there is little or no de-
mand for municipal paper. Shoe
maker does not believe that any
outside bids will be received. The
city light and water reserve fund
will take up the bonds il outside
bidders do not buy them.
