Those Kind Words

In the course Of the primary campaign just closed The Republican printed many unsigned reading mo- tiees Of candidates of highly euogistic character We think it generally understood that these prepared by friends press agents of the didates. and thus whatever of the seamy side there may have been, it was deftly concealed. We some times thought the risk of appearing to com nit the paper to the of this that candidate but assumed that intelligent readers would understand that, these notices did not carry with them endorsement of any of our democratic friends
 This was in pursuance of policy announced st the beginning-that no candidate would be left without hearing if he or she asked one. of the readers of this paper And think that all prac- tcally all of the democratic candidates availed hem- selves of tho opportunity extended them.
 Some of the notices succinct and modest Some of them rather severely encroached upon our space and seemed sometimes to encroach upon the domain Of the editor But that permitted. None Of them actually suggested the occupation of the for they all contributed to the gayety the campaign which now and then signs of lapsing into seri- ousness. That recompense.

BIG HAIISTONES

Winter is the of snow. but summer of hail. Hail is generally associated with thunder and thunder is more often summer vistant than not. The hail we get in this country although it is sonay likened to marbles and pigeons eggs and the like, seems to be nothing at all compared with the hail they get in unfortunate parts the globe
 There numerous well authenticated of haistones weighing half pound and more but claims which go far beyond this meager weight made Stones of six to eight pounds said to have fallen in Namur in 1719 and the missionary, Father Hue, who ought to be credible witness records the fall in Tartary in 1S43 of a block of ice big as millstone, which took three days to melt.

Pia-in.the- Poke Legislatures

There nominated in Arizona yesterday some thing like hundred candidates for the fourth legislature and who will have power 10 repeal bind the people with ones. They will have power overturn the existing order. They will be- least be, more influential, than any other officers who will be seated on January l. next
 Yet we suppose not one in ten of the persons SO nominated is known outside of his immediate neigh borhood They will be elected defeated by persons Vho do not know them and know nothing about them except that they are recorded belonging to this or that party That, far the great majority of the voters know will be their sole qualification disqualification. Is it any wonder, then, that legs stures selected in this pig a poke gen. orally bring contempt upon themselves and afford lief when they finally adjourn when thanks are re- turned that they have done worse than they might have done.
 2 State legislatures have often than not failed command respect and confidence but legislature chosen by the primary system under which any person however unworthy unqualified may be a candidate for a nomination is in the be- ginning almost certainly doomed to failure It only by accident useful intelligent body and the chances always strongly against accidents.
 way has been proposed by which Arizona legis- atures can be selected instead of being thrown to- yether at random. The people November will he given a chance to provide by constitutional amend for the intelligent selection of members of the legislature by choosing them within districts by their neighbors who know them. If ones neighbors think is honest and qualified he is apt to be fair leg islative material They not only know him but he knows what his neghbors want.
 It frequently happens under present system when unfit member of the legislature is elected that he has been defeated by the voters of his precinct He does not therefore represent them. It cannot he said that he represents the people of the other precincts which elected him without know ing anything about him. So he represents nobody and yet pride ourselves upon representative government
 Party bosses will oppose the districtng plan as they oppose every plan which looks to intelligent ac- ton the part Of voters.

It Lacked a Start
We can't all hold offices.

That Haywood and Mooney strike proposed to be launched in Arizona did get a good start. Mir Walter Johnson the promoter of it is an unfortunate individual and a bad judge of conditions Mir John son ought to have perceived the futilty of it. It was only last April that Mooney strike failed miser- ably. There time perhaps in Arizona when such insane movements might have been put under way but within the last nothing could have been expected to come of them. Within that time there has been cleaning up of the people who would fall in behind such projects. Some of them are in the penitentisry, some have scattered and the rest who arc in Arizona cowed and under cover
 Mir. Johnson is forgetful of his own experiences and tribulations, of the night when he arrived in Tucson with feathers on his neck like a turkey having been recently released by a group of citizens who had inartistically decorated him and hurried him on his way

The Chain Letter

We have received from reader the following copy of "chan letter" which had come into his hands. He endorsed the purpose of the letter but not the of it's circulation:
 The false rumors and malicious stories constantly being circulated as facts dscrediting high off- cals, the Red Cross, the and conduct of our troops the conditions of our cantonments etc, are German propaganda. intended to create distrust' and discomfort among people, and to discourage those working for country.
 These stories accepted news, and unfor tunately being given the widest circulation by patriotic Americans who do not realize that they are aiding enemies
 The Espionage Act provides punishment for those who convey any false reports or statements con- corning government. Those who are fighting for deserve the fullest measure of our loyalty and support in word and deed.
 We have resolved to close our ears to all such stories and discourage their circulation Will you do the same?
 Every loyal citizen should assist in stopping these malignant lies, enlist your friends by mailing to- day six exact copies of this letter. Do not break this chain.
 Faithfully yours.
 The reader is right. The chain letter years to be regarded as nuisance and came under the dspeasure of the postoffice department The "chain letter" usually related to some small incon- sequenal matter in which the starter interested but which appealed comparatively few other people. but yet enough other people to become burden on the postal system. If the ideas of the orignators fully carried out the chain letter would even tualy reach every man, woman and child in the uni verse, but the chain always breaks soon Insane projects are not as a rule followed with great continuity.
 The newspapers form much better medium for reaching all the people and the newspapers can be counted upon aid any worthwhile object such this campaign against German propaganda is Any issue of newspaper will reach many people than a short-lived chain of chain letters.
