King Constantine of Greece
has been compelled to abdicate
his throne in favor of his second
son, Prince Alexander. Queen
Sophia, who is a sister of the
Kaiser, was the cause of the
downfall of the king, as she was
too too strongly pro-German to
suit existing conditions in Greece.

The editor of the Phoenix Mes
senger is either getting to be
good republican, or he is slipping
badly in loyalty to the Bryan
brand Of democracy with all it's
fads that catch the thoughtless.
In the last issue of the Messen-
ger he devotes considerable space
to abusing the referendum be-
cause several good bills have
been held up by filing petitions.
He evidently is just awaking to
the fact that has always been
apparent to conservative think
ing men, who are not stampeded
by every passing fad that prom
ises to bring ideality in govern
ment. He has discovered that
the worst element in the state
can use the referendum to defeat
wholesome legislation just as cas-
lily as the good people can invoke
the law to head off vicious legis-
lation. In fact his investigation
convinces him that the law has
never been used except to hold
up some good wholesome law de-
manded by the people. The in
itiative, referendum and recall
were grated into the state con-
stitution by the mollycoddle dem
ocrats of the Bryan stripe at the
command of the peerless lead
er" who has a hobby for fads.
The referendum was exploited as
the great safeguard of the COM
mon 'peepel, whoever they
may be, to protect them from a
legislature that might pass laws
they did not want. In actual
operation it has proven a most
effectual instrument IN the hands
of the corrupt element of the
state to hold up good wholesome
laws passed by the legislature.
A fool should have known that
the referendum would work just
that way, but when Arizona was
drafting her constitution the
democrats were drawing their
wisdom from w. J. Bryan, and
to harbor any idea in contraven-
ton to his, was considered trea-
son to the party. The initiative,
referendum and recall have no
place in a representative govern
ment. Let the people exercise
their franchise With care and
judgment, electing reputable cit
izens to the legislature, instead
of lot of corporation tools and
broken down political hacks who
are always on the auction block
to the highest bidder, or tin-horn
statesmen with big ambitions for
themselves, and there will be no
need for these fads of govern
ment that destroy the will of the
people. We are glad the Phoe-
nix Messenger is reforming along

We have often wondered in
times past if our statesmen ever
get close enough to the laboring
men to learn from them some of
the lessons of government vital
ly affecting their interest, and
this thought was brought home
forcibly to the editor a few days
ago. In a conversation with a
man in the train service, just an
ordinary thoughtful man, with
no political ambitions further
than being a good citizen inter-
ested in good government, the
editor suggested he should buy
Liberty bond and his reply was
startling for the truth it con-
tanned. He said it was time
enough for laboring men to in
vest in Liberty bonds when the
government made some move to
suppress the food gamblers who
were taking advantage of the
war to rob the wage Garner;
which no doubt furnishes one of
the principle reasons for the lack
of enthusiasm among the people
generally in the bond issue. This
man is not demagogue nor an
agitator, but good citizen, and
just as patriotic as any man in
Congress, and was a loyal sup
porter of President Wilson in the
last campaign. The thought he
expressed is probably harbored
by all the working classes in the
country, who daily see food and
other necessaries advancing in
price, and knowing full we'll that
their daily wage will not keep
pace. The responsibility for this
condition rests on Congress and
the Department of Justice. They
know as we'll as the laboring
man that food spectators will
never quit bleeding the people
until the strong arm of the law
reaches out for them and threat
ems them with the penitentiary,
where they rightly belong. This
criminal class shout loud for pa
triotism, but stabs the govern
ment in the back by robbing the
people who are expected to offer
their lives in it's defense. They
have no love of country; they
only see in the war cloud the
golden opportunity to harvest
dollars. Let the President, the
Congress, and the Department
of Justice commence at once in
earnest to suppress all corpor-
ations, associations and cold stor-
age companies dealing in life's
necessities, and there will be a
most appreciable increase in the
the interest in Liberty bonds on
the part of the laboring man. It
is about time our alleged states
men awoke to the fact that the
real strength of this government
rested on the shoulders of the
man with the dinner pail; that
the food gamblers with their
millions of ill-gotton dollars are
only ornaments, and reasonable
ornaments at that, ready to de-
sert with their millions at the
first call of danger.

with balancing force of trained men,
the War Department hopes 10 have n
weil-balanced force available for carly
work at the front.
At war strength the regular army
will number 100000 or more. At least
10000 OF these will be held in
America for n while at least. to train
the $4,000 recruits who will be
brought in through the draft.
Meanwhile, $4,000 national GUARDS
men also will be sent 10 Europe, swen-
ing the number there to 100000 by
October, according 10 present plans.
Large additional forces OF regulars and
national guardsmen will be available
by autumn here for work in France in
tho spring. BY that time also the con-

the draft into effect. and obtain sufti-
Gent supplies. so that the men may be
fully equipped as they make ready TO
leave. The mass Of detailed work al
ready is beginning TO show definite re-
suits. The worst OF the draft prepare
tons are over. Nothing now remains
but for President Wilson to set a date
for the drawing, making the exemp-
tons and leave the rest TO the already
prepared nIachinnry. He is expected
10 do these things this week. The
date OF the FIRST draft Will be not later
than three weeks from now The ma

OF optimism, which l believe TO be

been enforced. and lack of under

part of certain number OF officers.

that the thought of any separate peace

doubt, the Russian people reject all
thoughts Of a struggle for the brutal
conquest OF a country against the will
of its population. They set much store
by an avoidance Of all suspicion OF
imperialism. and the reports furnished
by the Russian government on this
subject concerning the agreements
which bind Russia to her allies have
contributed greatly to clearing up the
situation"
