POETRY
HE KEPT HIS RENDEZVOUS WITH
 DEATH,

(The appearance of the collected poems of Alan Seeger has called out many tokens of sympathy with the fate of the young American who died in battle on the side of the allies. In the January Art World Grace D. Van- amee pays touching tribute to the sol dier-poet with the following sequel to Seeger's justly famous T Have Rem dezvouS With Death.") He kept his rendezvous with Death At fatefui Belloy- -en-Sapterre
 Though Spring had passed all unaware And Summer scents were in the air, He kept his rendezvous with Death, He whose young life had been a
 prayer.
 We strain our eyes the way he went. Our soldier-singer, Heaven-sent.
 We strain our eyes and catch our
 breath But he has slipped from out our sight; He kept his rendezvous with Death And then emerged into the light Of that fair day that yet may be
 For those who conquer as did he.
 God knows twas hard for him to go From all he loved-to make that And leave for them such bitter woe. But his high courage was his breath And with his greatest work undone l He kept his rendezvous with Death. Brave Hero-Poet we rejoice That Life and Art to you were one, That you to your own songs were trues l You did not fail that rendezvous!

UNCLE SAM,

We like to think of Uncle Sam
 As tall, lean, whiskered chap, With bell-crowned, woolly "beaver," And pantaloons that strap; But that Uncle Sam has faded,
 A memory fond and dim; And the picture, Uncle fancies,
 In nowise fiatters him. Our Uncle Sam has. prospered,
 No more he runs a farm; a. As a plutocrat and banker
 He views things with alarm. He wears a frock and derby.
 And his wl1iskers are effaced; . He is tired business man,
 Four feet around the waist! But the widows and the orphans Find Uncle kind and sweet. And the foe will find him ready
 When the drums begin to beat. He will train down his ''rotunda,"
 And for wealth not care hoot, When calls the voice of freedom
 And the guns begin to shoot!

 With this intelligence fresh in mind, prospective buyer went to H. w. Chambers, head of the Chambers Transfer company. This company op- crates a fleet of five G. M. c. trucks. It does large business with the mines.

For or Against the l. w. w.

If this thing keeps in the legislature the l. w. W. will be the issue in the democratic state primary campaign Every democratic candidate will be forced to take side the other. He cannot satisfy the people with broad statement of his patriotism. his unswervng loyalty to the president and his hatred of Prussian autocracy. He will be either for or against the L W. w; the l. W. W. as it exists in Arizona and it is everywhere alike.
 If only the l. W. W. as it has been shown to be in the Chicago trial the issue it would be no more troublesome than Prussanism, but the l. w. w. in Arizona includes many voters, perhaps some thou sands of voters who actually members of that dastardly and criminal organization and, perhaps, some thousands of others who lack the nerve to be members.
 We suppose of the candidates will try to sraddle the situation but things now so shaping themselves in the legislature that that not be done. Every candidate must define his position He must come out plainly against the l. w. w. the voters will assume, as they ought to assume that he is for the l. w. w. The stand he takes against this band of criminal traitors be taken without reserve, without qualification and without explana- ton If he is not willing to do that let him not prae of loyalty and patriotism.
