The Wisconsin Rebuke.

Our chief qualification at the result of the sena- torial contest is not that Mir Lenroot a republican, has been elected United States senator not that good man. one who has served so long and accepta- bly, as Mir Lenroot whether republican democrat, has been rewarded. The greater value the result is that it will act as check upon future efforts to introduce partisanship into political affairs at this time when all want is Americansin; when anything else is superfluous The vote of Wisconsin on Tuesday rebuke of the national admins tration. We regret that the administration provoked it. but having provoked it. think now it will not repeat the error
 President Wilson and the national democratic committee especially sought the election of MT. Davies, we suppose because vacancy caused by the death of democrat Senator Husting to be filled In ordinary times it would not have been inn proper for the administration desire the election of supporter of party policies. Other presidents have thrown their influence into congressional and senatorial contests. President Roosevelt did so fre quenty and, generally. successfully. Believing the party policies he trying enforce to be the best, he would have been derelct if he had neglected to bring to them the strongest support He could do that only through the election of party men,
 Party policies have now been submerged. For the time, it make no difference whether sena- tor is a republican a democrat, he is a loyal American. Mir. Lenroot is loyal American. So is his defeated opponent Mir Davies. It right for either of these gentlemen to aspire to the senatorshp and it was right for the supporters of each in the state to put forth every effort in his behalf.
 The instant, though. that the president, whose position gives him a call upon the loyalty but not the blind obedience of all citizens designated Mr. Davies his choice for other apparent reason than that he democrat, he turned Wisconsin into partisan battle ground and invited the par ticipation of the national republican party.
 But for that ill advised interference and the in- vasion of the state by the vice president the people of the country at large republicans and democrats would have regarded the Wisconsin contest with

MESA MERCHANTS ID
 WORK 0N NEW TIME

MESA, April 4.-Falling into line with the governments daylight saving plan, Mesa merchants have re-arranged their hours for opening and closing the stores. Beginning today the dry goods and clothing houses will open at ' o'clock and close at o'clock. Groeers will have the same schedule beginning Monday next. These hours are the new time and it is hoped that the pub lie will arrange its trading hours so that the employees who now have to arise an hour earlier each day than when o'clock began an hour later, may get away in time for recreation after closing. Patrons who figure that this will inconvenience them. may con- sider that in Los Angeles the big de- partment stores, or most of them, open at o'clock and close at o'clock, thus giving ample time for all shopping and shorter hours for the employees. It is but a question of getting used to the change.

Why NoveIists Take to Journalism

It is perhaps in search of dignity and status that the modern novelist has taken to journalism. Jour nalism raises novest's status for view expressed the same view fastened to event of the day ac- qures importance satisfies the specific function of the press. which is and more that of a cham plon of-found causes. The newspaper is a better jumping off ground than the pulpit or the profes- sonal chair 1t enjoys vast circulation which the novel does not; it conveys idea to millions of peo- pie who would never think of buying newspaper for the sake of an idea but who buy it for news,. murder cases or corn market reports; it is a place where writer may be serious, because the news paper is labeled serious while the labeled as frvolous.-W.
