Voice of the People
From a Republican Viewpoint

Editor The Phoenix Tribune:
Sir:-May l have the privilege OF
saying a few words through the col.
tumns Of your valuable paper to the
Republican voters of the State?
On Tuesday. September oath at 2
P. M, attended the Republican Coun-
ty committee meeting which was held
in the X. of P. hall on East Washing
ton street enjoyed the meeting
very much, especially the short
speeches made by the different candi-
dates. We should attend all meetings
that are open to active Republican
workers, as it keeps us in touch with
the leaders of the party.
The speeches were to the point, ad-
vocating clean government and equal
rights to all. l am sorry we did not
have more colored people out to hear
the wonderful speech made by Mr..
Lilly White. He stated that he had
been in this valley 40 years and if
he was elected to the House of Rep
resentatives, he would do his duty in
helping to change the laws to make
Arizona the State it should be. He
made strong point, according to my
way of thinking. We know that the
laws must be changed to hold the
GOOD CITIZENS who are coming in
to our community every day.
After the meeting was over, l could
see plainly why the Democrats are in
power. The Republican party is
weakened. They have not the con-
fidence in themselves that party
should have and they are too sympa-
thetic. On the other hand, the Demo-
cratic party is fearless and always out
to win. Not so with our Republicans,
they are less valiant and sadly lack
ing in moral courage.
With all due respect to Miss Edith
Jacobs as candidate for county re-
corder on the Democratic ticket, Mrs.
Pauline O'Neil, Judge Wheeler and
few more "favorite" Democrats; let
them run on the ticket of their choice
Complete the Republican ticket with
good, clean Republican opponents and
see if the members of the party will
not support Republican before they
will Democrat. This done, when we
start the work for Governor we can
work for the entire Republican ticket.
Have we not a Republican leader in
the community among our people who
can call mass meeting and begin
placing the candidates before the peo-
pie? This should be done in order
that by the time the election takes
place they will have had opportunity
to express themselves for or against
the Race and we will know them.
How many of you voters have reg
istered? If you have vote in the
coming election DON'T FAIL TO
REGISTER. When you register, you
place hammer in your hand and you
can either build or tear down with
the same. Let us get together and
organize so we can use this hammer
to better conditions in the state, coun-
ty and community in which we live
Remember that Arizona has not had
Republican Governor since she has
been admitted to statehood and if we
help elect one, l know it will mean
better conditions for Negro schools
in the State. Let us all get together
and support a STRAIGHT REPUBLI-
CAN TICKET and Tom Campbell will
be our next Governor.
MRS. JESSIE JAMES,
A Republican Worker

open to all readers of the Tribune,

THE GROWTH AND
SPREAD OF DEMOCRACY

"In all directions are CULTS and
yawning abysses, the ground of So
ciety cracking, the fire showing thru,
the old ties giving way beneath
the strain, and the great pent heart
heaving as though it would break, at
the sound of world-democracy" It
is difficult to believe that these pro-
phetic lines were written by E. Caste
lar two years before Europes great
struggle. If there is any compensa-
ton to emerge from this hideous and
bloody contest, it must be found in
the word-democracy
Democracy is a form of govern
ment in which power rests with the
body of citizens. There are six un-
derlying principles in true demo-
cratic equality, writ of
habeas corpus, right of trial by jury,
freedom of speech and of the press,
and absolute publicity of state af-
fairs. History has not been an aim
less repetition of despotism follow
ing anarchy. Sweeping back and forth
with many a curve, it shows con-
slant flow toward universal truth and
justice.
The democracy of the ancient
world is distinguished from medieval
forms In antiquity it was associated
with the city. There was no sys-
tenn of representation by which the
people spread over extensive terri
tories could send delegates A large
number of slaves who had no poll
tical and few civil rights existed An
cient democracy attained its highest
development in Athens just before
the Peloponnesian War; which re-
suited in the overthrow of Athenian
democracy. Quiescent for about two
hundred years after the reforms of
the fourth century, B. c., desire
for freedom reigned at the time of
the iGracchi and ended with the tri-
umph Of julius Caesar. But this
triumph ended the republic, and there
resulted permanent rule by an auto
crat
With the growth of medieval re-
publics began "a democratic novei
ment similar to that of ancient times.
1t differed in that slavery ceased to
be an important factor and the de
'velopment of the cities was now af-
fected by the feudal states which had
now risen. Modern democracy does
not consist of body of men limited
in number, but of millions of men
inhabiting extensive countries shar.
ing in their governing, appreciating
the 10y in widest commonalty
spread" This is the result of a grad
ual growth through centuries of severe
inevitable struggles.
In Europe democracy began, and
there its battle is now being fought
Its first great battle, Margarten, was
fought in Switzerland in 1315--liber
lty's red dawn came just century af
ter England's Magma Chsrta, which
organized and recognized liberty
through law on which English free
dom rests wherever English is spok
en-. In thirteen seventeen Holland
won its freedom. These countries
that battled for their freedom were
the beacon lights of the future. How
many of these lights of six centuries
uago were to fame, flicker aud fade!
Phoenix tribune., 1918-09-28

The states of Italy and provinces of
Spain had control over their taxes
and administrations. These countries
were gaining their freedom so rapid
ly, it seemed as if they were to extend
over all southern Europe In 1888 this
vision vanished when the Spanish
Armada was defeated With nothing
to stay universal despotism, Philip
ii tried to conquer England The east
ern end of the Mediterranean was
held by Turkey and the western by
Spain. The free Italian states were
controlled. France was a despotism;,
Germany was4 divided into many
states. Hohenzollern established his
personal government which in our
day dominates all Germany and GEN.
trail Europe from the Baltic and North
seas to the Aegean. OF organized
freedom nothing was left but the
countries of Switzerland, Holland and
England
In 1889 came the great event in the
evolution of democracy, the French
Revolution. Though it failed for the
time, it spread everywhere new ideas
shook the old system to it's foun-
dation and raised questions that
could never again be set aside. Soon
afterwards Napoleon began his expedi-
tions. He accomplished such stupen-
dous undertakings that the world was
startled at his successes. He became
dictator, ruler and emperor of France.
He hoped to become the sole ruler
over the whole continent of Europe,
but the desire for justice and indi-
vidual rights was too strong. The
result was his overwhelming and dis
astrous defeat in June, 1915, at Water
loo.
The smoke had hardly cleared from
the fields of Napoleon, when Greece
! and Roumania rose for their indepen-
dence. To the independence of Greece
there succeeded all the changes of
the last hundred years. Now abso.
lutte despotism is almost unknown in
Europe and in most of Asia and Afri.
ca.
In the year 1920, across the great
seas of America came small band
of people. Denied justice and free,
dom, they came to this country SO
that they might establish self-govern,
ment and freedom for themselves.
Freedom is the one purport wisely
aimed at, or unwisely, of all mans
struggles, toilings, and sufferings on
this earth This feeling was in the
souls of the men of the Revolutionary
War who were the first to fight in
the modern wars for democracy. This
same vision dominated the souls oI
the men in 1861 who poured to the
front, moved by an unquenchable anu
instructive love for national unity an6
a great commonwealth of liberty and
happiness. NOW no country IN NORTH
or South America is under an abso
lutte despotic head. The evolution ol
American democracy has been the
foundation of liberty in many coun
tries.
Along with a strong democratic gov
fernment there must be democracy ir
other principles. True democracy {;
4 best when all men and women have
an equal share in religion, society, edu
cation and industry.
A new impetus to the continued
growth and spread of democracy came
with the entrance of the United State,
into Europe's conflict. This visior
came to the people of the United
States; to put aside peace and pros
peritv for themselves to win il1sfice
