German Papers Regard Lu-

RECENT EVENTS REVIEWED
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press
AMSTERDAM, October 2S.-The
question heard upon all sides is
whether Field Marshal Won linden
burg will follow in the footsteps OF
Ludendorff. The Rhenish Westphalian
Zeitung of Essen claims to know that
he will be the next sacrifice to the
new regime.
The Essen Allgemeine Zeitung men
lions Gen. Won Lossberg. chief of staff
of the 9Th Army, as the successor to
Ludendorff. Gen. Won Lossberg is
credited with being the inventor of
the movable defense system"
Georg Bernhard, writing in the Ber-
lin Vossische Zeitung, while acclaim
ing Ludendorff as one of the saviors
of the fatherland from enemy dew
astation," says the fact that he con-
ceived himself omniscient and ON
nipotent brought his doom.
Sees End of Military Power.
Nothing except >the abdication of
the German emperor or the retire
ment of Field Marshal Won linden
burg could have struck the German
public's Imagination more forcefully
than the resignation of the popular
idol in Germany, Gen. LudendorH. AS
the Vorwaerts of Berlin, the German
socialist organ, puts it, the resigna-
ton of Ludendorff means that the
military element in Germany hence
forth is Invested of political influence.
Vorwaerts, which has no regret for
the departing army leader. says:
What has happened was bound to
happen, even if Germany had won.
The German social democracy was
determined not to permit a German
victory being turned into a victory
under the old system
The newspaper hints dark1y that
much more in the same direction yet
remains to be done"

Herr Wolff devotes a long and char

for two years like a dictator. For

Henry Claws Diplomacy.

The following is an instance of
Henry Clay's readiness In getting out
of a difficult situation. On n occa-
sion a vote he had given in congress
offended one of his constituents who
unbraided him for it and declared he
would never again support him for
congress.
Meeting this constituent on the court
green Mr.. Clay said TO him: Il am
sorry you will not again support me
for congress because of a vote | gave
on a certain measure. When your
rifle misses fire do you throw 1t
away?" NO" replied the constituent,

you do with itf" asked Mr.. Clay. "Why,

Clay. "are you going to throw me away
because l have missed fire once? Won't
you let me pick my flint and try againf
Won't you treat me as you do your rifle

This ready reply satisfied the con-
stituent and completely won him over,
and he was ever after n of Clays
most faithful supporters In his candi-
dacy for congress.

CULTURE HERE BEFORE 1892
Did Americas Pre-coIumbian civiliza-
tion Come From Egypt7 ls
Now Question.

Prof. Elliot Smith developed In an
extraordinarily interesting manner the
thesis that the pre-Columbian civiliza-
lions of America--or at least many i'm
portant features in those civilizations
were not truly aboriginal, but came
in a cultural wave from Asia across
the Pacific ocean, the original starting
point Of the most remarkable charac-
teristic being Egypt.
Professor Smith believes, says Sci
ence Progress, that the extremely pc
culiar culture of Egypt was spread
eastward by mariners, mainly Phoeni-
clans, for several centuries after B. @.
800. To quote the authors own words.
he thinks that "the essential elements
of the ancient civilizations Of India
(the pre-Aryan civillzations), further
India, the Malay archipelago. Oceania
and America were brought In success
sion to each of these places by mari
ners, whose oriental ~migrations began
as trading intercourse between the
eastern Mediterranean and India some
time after 800 Is. c., and that the
highly complex and artificial culture
which they spread abroad was derived
largely from Egypt mot earlier than

FAIR PLAY
From the Tombstone Prospector

(From the Tombstone Prospector)
 We are not fighting the battles of any candidate for the nomination for governor ship on the democratic ticket but are the champions of fair play and we do not be- ieve 1t Is fair play that some of our demo- cratic brother editors should be harping that Fred sutter Is corporation hireling; that he has a copper collar on and lot of rot of similar character. The fact Is, Fred Sutter Is an absolute independent man and they all looked alike to him as superior judge of Cochise county and if elected gov ernor would be the self same independent man as governor as he was judge and as he is as a private citizen. And now in refuta- ton of the vile islanders of some of the editors up north, we want to make state ment that will probably surprise the afore- said editors. During the year 1916, Fred Sutter, on behalf of a client, secured judg- ment for $ 0,000 against the C. & A. Min ing company Steve Davidovich was the plaintiff The case was appealed and we find that the 'Appellees Brief" in case No. l543, Steve Davidovich vs. Superior and Pittsburgh Copper company, Is signed Fred Sutter, w. B. Cleary, attorneys for plaintiff appellee and that was in April, 1917. It doesn't look as if the companies have a collar on Sutter, when Cleary and Sutter are joint attorneys in suit against the big C. & A. Copper company. And this is the same Cleary so well known as Windy Bill, the anti-corporation attorney. Fair play, gentlemen of the press, or at least confine yourself to the truth.
