WHY EUROPEAN ARMIES
HAVE SUPERIOR ARMS

War department officials, speaking
through Secretary Baker, fully justify
their action in rejecting the Lewis
machine gun, invented by an Ameri-
can and now being used extensively
by the French and British forces in
the field as vastly superior to any
other machine gun made.
The American army officers object
ed to its cost, and claimed that 1t
failed to stand the proper endurance
test. The fact that it is now regarded
as the best machine gun in the Euro
pean war, after long and arduous ser
vice, in no wise shakes the opinion OF
our war department.
Il seems that we have had some ex-
perience in the past not unlike that
Of the machine gun. The Holland
submarine was adjudged worthless by
a naval board; the rangerfinderS also
an American invention, became public
property Of the nations because our
government was not concerned about
new fanged notions; the "Krupp sur
prise" was the invention Of Chicago
man who could not interest Washing
ton and sold his model to Germany.
But why pursue the matter further !!

EhDEAV0R TO PROVIDE
MORE JOBS FOR FAITHFUL

Lewis T. Carpenter, United States
collector of internal revenue for Ari-
zona and New Mexico, who came to
Tucson a few years ago from Texas,
expects to be the new federal Judge
for the northern district Of Arizona.
He has the backing Of Colonel E.
M. House and Postmaster General
Burleson.
There are many candidates for the
place but Carpenter has the inside
track.
Judge Henry d. Ross Of the state
supreme court is favored for the po-
sition. Lysander Cassidy is among
the applicants. George ]. Stoneman,
democratic state chairman, the favor
tie of many old time democrats,
stands on chance to get the place, &C.
cording to reports.
There will be a United States Mar
shall for the southern district, a Unit
ed States attorney for the northern
district and clerk Of the court for
the northern district to appoint.
Samuel L. Pattee Of Tucson will
probably be named as United States
attorney for the southern district, I'M
less he would prefer to remain on the
bench at Tucson to which he was APP
pointed by Governor Hunt.
Carpenter is now irsthe east laying
than il Hunt should be favored as the
the bill passes.

BOLSTERING OUR
NATIONAL SHAME

Chairman Adamson should not wor-
ny over the possibility Of the repeal Of
his law. The chances are ten to three
that the supreme court will declare it
unconstitutional, but aside from that,
the law has served its original pur-
pose. Why grieve and make threats
of vengeance in case some employers
and employees get together and ad-
Just their differences on a business
basis? The introduction and pushing
through congress Of the Adamson law
was the most disgraceful and humi-
lating spectacle that ever an Ameri-
can president and congress engaged
in; why, when the law has served the
purpose for which it was designed,
should there be affected regrets in an
ticipation Of its repeal!
It is like the effort being made to
make it look as though through q
superior intelligence the masses Of the
people in Utah through an inspired
conviction voted a certain way in No
vember last, when in truth the cleo
ton was but convention to ratify a
cold-blooded business bargain between
the managers of the Democratic party
and a commercial organization, and
was in truth local crime and ma
tional menace.-Goodwin's Weekly.

OLDER Dn0THERS NOW
WANT YOUNGER'S PORTION

A pithy story Of pointed parable,
told in the language Of the humorist,
has frequently won cases in court and
shattered the efforts Of eloquent ora
tros. The effectiveness Of the parable
was aptly illustrated recently at the
meeting of the American Mining Con-
gress at Chicago, when the govern
ment's conservation policy was under
discussion. Judge Frank H. Short Of
Fresno, Calf, expressed the western
view of the situation as follows:
"The Sam family was one of wealth.
The father, Uncle Sam, divided the
property equally between his sons,
North, East, South and West. The
portions which fell to the three older
sons were awarded them and placed
at their disposal at once. The young
est son, West, assigned his portion Of
the estate so early in life, was unable
to take advantage Of 1t as had his
brothers. After having had full bene-
fit of their part Of the estate, and see
ing the great value Of their brothers
estate, North, East and South came
to the conclusion that Vests estate
should be handled so that the profit
acruing from it would be divided
equally among them all."-Superior

WORK or CORPORATION
COMMISSION FOR Week

lWenty-elKnt new companies "eiS
incorporated in the State during the
past week, mining companies still
predominating. During the month of
December, a total of 1873 companies
have been incorporated in Arizona.
Many companies are incorporated in
the state to do business wholly in
other staes, Notwithstanding the prin-
cipal place of business Of such prin-
panies is often given as Phoenix.
Twenty-six companies were incorpor-
ated in Arizona during the past week,
and also foreign companies admitted
to transact business in the state.
The National Life Insurance Com
pany of the Southwest, Of Albuquer-
que, New Mexico, is the only concern
other than mining companies, author
lied to sell stock in the state.
A total of So companies have been
granted permits to sell stock in Ari-
iona during the month just closed.
The date of the hearing Of the ap-
plication of the Southern Pacific COM
pany for an order modifying certain
rulings of the Commission relating to
joint freight rates Of that line and
the Arizona Eastern, has been
changed from January sth to January
18th, on account of the former date
conflicting with the twenty per cent
advance freight case of the Santa Fe.
The Arizona Eastern railroad COM
pany was authorized to refund to
Gordon & Smithline of Phoenix, $lS.-
%, an overcharge on two carloads OF
brick from Tempe to Phoenix.
The Calumet & Arizona Mining
Company received the sum Of $l6l6.OS
from the Ell Paso e. Southwestern
Railroad Company, by order OF the
Commission, it being shown that this
sum was in excess Of a reasonable
rate, charged on shipment OF lime
rock from Paul Spur and Forrest
Arizona, to Douglas.
The Interstate Commerce Commits
sion will hear in Phoenix, February
9th, at ten o'clock, a. m. at the United
States Court House, the complaint OF
the Arizona Corporation Commission
against the various railroads operat-
ing from the East into Arizona, in
the matter Of through passenger
rates. The rates from points in East
ern States to points in Arizona are
materially higher than from like
points in the East to points in the
Mountain States to the North OF
Phoenix, mile for mile. The rates
from the Missouri River, Mississippi
River, Chicago and other Eastern
points for Central and Western Ari-
zona are nearly, il not quite, as high
as to points in California, three to SIX
hundred miles further distant.
The Arizona Commission has be-
lieved that an unjust discrimination
has ben imposed against Arizona in
passenger rates, and at this hearing
before the Interstate Commerce Com
mission the matter will be thoroughly
presented.

dress rung with patriotism from be-
ginning to end. He especially laud-

their adopted countries, and he can
see growing out of this present great
conflict the triumph of democracy for
the world and independence for the

success, and the occasion is one long
