The bitterness of their hostility to another is intense than that which has sometimes preceded great We have for instance the Worlds Court League and the League to Enforce Peace both work ing like a boy endeavoring lift himself by boot straps stop the fracas in Europe and prevent a recurrence of such unfortunate events.
 In an address in New York day before yesterday Professor William B. Guthrie of the Worlds Court League. "The Widened Reach the Law" outlined the purposes of the league
 The operation of determining the courts jursdic- as to what what is not justiciable case and the propensity of nations refuge behind political questions" might involve action by the courts armed forces, said Prof. Guthrie and the carrying out of the expressed intention to force against nation which refuses submit issue to the court would obviously mean war.
 Prof. Guthrie said that the international situation demands organization, which be orderly and per manent needs laws. and these turn involve the necessity of a world court therefore he said is a logical and inevitable step in the line devel- opment followed by international law from Grotius down the present time The idea of substituting judicial settlement for war, said Prof Guthrie, the total abandonment physical force plan to associate force with a world court would necesstate initial of the overwhelming majority the physical power of the world he added but scheme without force could be adopted at any time by any number of nations above two.
 The history of treaties and the present state of nationalism according Prof Guthrie show clusivey that the American people would place in the hands of an international commission the power to war against themselves. He asked how it would be possible determine the real ag gressor against whom this armed league is to wage war; and added for example that the aggressor in the war between the United States and Mexico in 1S46 has yet been determined
 Professor Guthrie characterized League to En- force Peace "a futile attempt conceal the grim figure of force in the background with the fabled goddess, sword in hand and scales of justice the other with her weather eye open a fight"
 Professor Guthrie overlooks the fact that all earthly courts to date have had force behind them their judgments were executed. But for the sherffs office imagine many judgments would be executed. Without force our laws would be no laws at all, and would have every country state of anarchy World Court without power enforce its orders would produce condition of inter- national anarchy.

Good Reputations

We see by the papers" that witnesses testi- flying to the good reputation of Spane, the murderer his wife and Colonel Butler We learn from them that he a devoted husband. He may have been at one time. No is a murderer until he becomes and that instant his reputation for murdering is shattered and wiped and is made if it had never been He certainly not the ideal devoted husband when he leveled that revolver at his wife.
 Nor had he the excuse of the injured husband the executor of the unwrtten law, for there dis covery that could have suddenly infuriaed him. Tie wife of Butler appears from the testimony to have been always present meetings between husband Mrs. Spanell
 Character testimony, a rule is of little vano except where there is doubt whether the defendant actually committed the act alleged. It is negative testimony and may be dug up in behalf of almost every man acused of crime Some think that Judas Iscarot and Benedict Arnold were not as bad they have been painted
 In the of Spanell there is doubt of the double killing, that cannot understand what his previous reputation has do with the affair. We suppose every who has ever been hanged jailed since the world began, had sometime either a good reputation at any rate not bad reputation though back to his childhood maybe, to his babyhocd.

Where the People
 May Have Hearing
Corporal Punishment

Ray, January 23d 1916. Editor Arizona Republican,
 Phoenix, Ariz.
 Sir
 Every once in a while the public is informed, by some news item, of some corporal punishment taking place in one of the schools. Usually it is through the action of some resentful parent, whose child has been the victim
 Recently . recurrence of this has come to my notice and being a father of school attending children myself, can not help but write this letter in con- demnation of this practice.
 In the first place, our present day system of education, together with the higher training available to our teach CTS, has outgrown the crude method of controlling children by the terror of physical violence. While the effect may be beneficial in singular cases, it works to the opposite in the majority of other cases. makes the child fear the teacher and it's obligation to attend school dis tasteful
 Now. we parents compel our children to go to school, which is in conformity with the laws of the state and our obi gations to society and we look toward the cooperation of the teachers to make school so attractive and interest ing so that the child will develop a natural desire to go and to absorb ev-

Our unhindered Retirement From Mexico

Villa evidently is not devoid of good points, at least one good point. He has given orders to hls followers that the Pershing expedition which year ago was sent to catch him, dead alive, shall be allowed to depart in peace There must be no inter ference with or hampering of the movement of the retractng column whose mission in Mexico whatever it may have been, aside from the capture of Villa seems to have been accomplished.
 Carranza to be outdone in generosity toward our retiring troops will allow them the use of the national railroads far he control them, for the expedition of their retrograde movement. Our soldiers can ride though they compelled to walk in. All this is very nice, indicating that we have made quite hit in Mexico to elicit these manifesto tons of good will from those who did not uproarously welcome us on our arrival. We have evidently i'm proved ar acquaintance" that they now bid bon voyage
 And after that. Will it be revor good bye? We do not know but we surmise that will visit Mexico again sometime, not to chase a bandit per haps will be stirring times there and dis turbance which fear CarranZa and Villa will not be able to keep confined below the border If they only do that they will not engage our serious attention within the next four years and maybe, at end of time there will only be bits of fur scattered around in Mexico show where the bat tlefields were.

Anonymous Publication

The bill of Senator Winsor making it a felony to publish or distribute anonymous communications to voters we think should be slightly modified and theE if opebt not to encounter any objection. If the com
 ,,nication is not an attack upon candidate other erson or is not of nature to injure, with appear ance of mahciousness, any candidate nothing would be gained by the publication of the authors name It would deter many well meaning but modest gentle men from expressing their views regarding current or impending political events
 But to make personal attacks upon citizens or to scatter scurrious and misleading circulars like some which Uttered the vicinity of polling booths last 1a calculated to arouse religious antiquities against cer tain candidates are quite different matters There the authors should be required to assume full respon sibnity for their communications
 Many newspapers permit their readers to present their views in their columns provided it is done in decent manner, all subjects of general interest The common practice require the publication of the name of the correspondent, though all news papers insist that shall the com rnunication only as evidence of good faith Many correspondents are modest; they not ashamed of their communications but they fear they may be cused of presumption in setting themselves up as ad vsers of the public Such law MT. Winsor pro poses would thus silence many harmless and some times instructive correspondent. to good purpose
 But nothing is to be said against a law which makes responsible for political attacks upon individuals for partisan utterances. When one seeks refuge behind anonymity in such cases ne is a coward the making of assassin a lineal des- cendant of those who patronized the mouth Of the Lion of St. Mark
 Mir Winsors bill, it now stands is in sub stance a part of the senate amendment which has been offered the corrupt practices act now pending in congress and which it is charged is an assault upon the privilege of free speech.

 The exile went to Madrid, only to find he had no haven there. The au- thorities gave him q certain time hI which to leave. TrotZky views the outcome of the war rather darklY. Here are the results he expects;
 Economically it will wIpe out the middle class thus aocentuating the differences between the mOneyed class es and the workers.
 Financially 1t will put governments under such a yoke Of national debt that all programs of social reform will be impossible for there will be no money to carry them out with.
 Politically il will cause concentra- tion of the powers Of government in the hands of the reactionaries of all nations, republican as well as mon archial.
 These conditions are certain to bring on revolt

Le R0i Est Mort
 VlUe Le ROl!!

G. M. Willard, who in addition to be- ing state game warden of Arizona, oc- casionally writes what might be termed exquisite verse, has endeavored to com memorate the sprinkling of the streets of Phoenix with a goodly mixture of ale, beer, whisky, bull dog cider, brandy etc, by composing few verses anent that event.
 As Mir. Willard is fast gaining a repu- tation as 9 poet, and as his offerings are eagerly snatched up by all lovers of verse in the state, the following copy of his poem with the authors note is given:
 NOTE.-When the prohibition law had been in operation in the state of Arizona for q period of two years, one of the results was a large accumulation of contraband liquors in the hands of the sheriff. at Phoenix, which had been confiscated in the prosecution of boot leggers. Under order of the court this was destroyed by the sheriff in novel and highly spectacular manner: First, a street sprinkler was partly filled with water and then the five hundred or so gallons of liquor, of various shades and grades, were empted into the sprinkler which was decorated with numerous banners bearing various legends of the temperance crusaders. The sprinkler was then driven to the center of the city, the lever pulled and the street was literally sprinkled with booze, while the thousands of spectators jeered, hOoted and applauded.
 In the land of Arizona,
 In an early month of Fall,
 Died a King of power and splendor, Of the House of Alcohol
 With a hand of blood and iron Long he ruled OCT church and state,
 And his subjects were submissive, For King Alcohol was great.
 Though he levied heavy tribute, Yet uphold him people would;
 For twas part of their religion That King Alcohol was good.
 The saloon and kindred vices Long had flourished in the land; Church and law seemed awed and helpless Neither dared to raise a hand
 Tyrants ever breed rebellion; DespOts ever meet fall;
 So, we notice no exception In the case of Alcohol. First whisper, then a murmur. Then defiance bravely spoken, Followed by full-fIedged rebellion, And the tyrant power was broken. Then they locked him in a dungeon. Like common criminal Next they gathered his relations. And imprisoned them as we'll 
 Then the court passed judgment on
 him,
 Ard forthwith twas carried out;
 And the justice of the judgment None could question, none could doubt l had seen him at his zenith. ! And l saw him in his fall.
 But l saw no floral offerings ! On the bier of Alcohol. In his cortege were his vassals. 1 Who had bled for him for years There were widows, there were orphans, But 20 note of grief or tears Stripped was he of all his raiment Jeered and driven through the street ::
 Not voice was raised defending. Tor his downfall was complete.
 With pressure on the lever. I Came gurgle and a splutter; i Like so many of his subjects. Came his ending in the gutter ] Funeral dirge and tears were ah- sent ! Jubil9ticns in their stead
 From the people pealed the anthem, ! Halleujah. He is dead

Leon TrOtzky, | Russian exile Who recently was expelled from several European countries. has come to the United States to live. Trotzky took q hand in revolutionary movements in Russia for several years, but was eX- pelled from that country to Germany The Germans bade him leave at the beginning of the war and he took re fuge in France.

WHERE DESTRUCTION IS NORMAL

After time in this silent country of Northern France the that destruction is normal, and tears start to ones eyes at the sight of destroyed French village smiling in the sun. So changed all values that could feel nothing strange in the words of the who told me, Fortunately, my husband is hunchback'

Home Gardens

To the editor of The Republican:
 Make 1917 garden year. Al no time in many years has the necessity of the home garden been so great as this year. t therefore behooves everybody in 1917 to make this garden year Our coun- trv is facin0 critical situation in the matter of food supply and yet, a partial remedy is in the hands of nearly every citizen. One-half of your summer liv- ing expenses are for vegetables that should come out of your own garden. A space even as small as 25 by 50 feet
 lanted with a high quality of vegetable eeeds is sufficient for a family of six throughout the entire season.
 Fresh, crisp vegetables every day should be reason enough, but in addi- ion the saving makes it of the great est importance. Everybody should plant a garden and help reduce the high cost
