NEW MEN AND NEW ENERGY.

War was declared by the United States in April, 1917. In December, 1917, after the Senate Committee on Military Affairs had disclosed to the public the dilatory methods of the War Department, the Secretary of War announced the creation of a "War Council" consisting of himself as chairman and five general officers of the army.
 All this will be puzzling to the mind of the layman who thinks along common sense lines. If war coun- cil was necessary, why did the Sec retary of War delay its creation from April to December. If such council is needed, what is gained by forming it of men who are now and have been all these months within the Depart ment and at the call of the Secretary at any time. By grouping these men under the head of "War Council" does Secretary Baker expect to in- spire them with new wisdom or in fuse into their blood more iron? If he and they have been unequal to the task in the past, what good will it do to group them under a high-sounding title? If they have not been able to coordinate their work in the past, why expect them to do so in the fu- ture merely because they are given new title?
 These thoughts cannot but occur to the layman who is accustomed to judge affairs by the lessons of ordi- nary practical experience.
 What the War Department has needed from the beginning was not new titles but new men. It has need ed new energy and sounder judgment. Instead of calling to the front men like Theodore Roosevelt, Leonard Wood, Augustus P. Gardner and oth- CTS who have shown almost prophet ic vision and marvellous energy, those men have been relegated to the rear and the "War Council" is made up of men who have had their opportunity and, by implied admission of the Sec retary, have not measured up to the demands of the occasion.
 If MT. Baker has not been able to utilize these men to advantage in the past, there is no reason to believe he can do so in the future. He should have called Leonard Wood out of exile and placed him in a place where ex- peditious work is to be done.

NO TIME FOR ASSURANCES.

Lord Landsdowne calls upon Lloyd George for new statement of the war aims of the Allies. He advocates an assurance to Germany that she is not to be destroyed, in commercial sense, and that no government dis tasteful to her will be forced upon her in case of the Allied success. These are automatic. Germany's com mercial position will be in the future as in the past-made in Germany; and the German government will re- main as the German people want it, no matter how the war results. Events may bring the German people to a repugnance for the All-Highest form of rule. Meantime, the Allies job is to keep on fighting good and plenty

BAYONETS-NOT BULLETINS.

The Bolsheviki, dealing with the un- tutored peasants of Russia, were able to translate fine phrases into suc- cessful revolution. Dealing with the keener minds of German plenipoten- tiaries, the Bolsheviki have found that stump speeches have no valid use at a peace conference and that glittering terms in which they have been accustomed to depict their ideals of human brotherhood have no effect upon the representatives of a kultur wherein the divine right of kings is a cardinal element. If the Bolsheviki have quit the peace conference with the Germans in frame of mind which enables them to understand that the Teuton is best confronted with bay onet instead of a bulletin of princi- ples, the bitter experience of Russia in the last few months may not have been without value.

any All-Arizona of former years. The Indian school trio are the best ground gathers in the state despite the fact that two of them play in the line. Puella on tackle around Cleaveland, forward passes from Butler and the last named on brilliant lodging runs through the line around the end.
 Caldwell and Sutter, of Phoenix, and Redway and Burgess, of Tucson, would make a powerful set of line men and when aided by Puella, Cleave- land, and c. Cain, it would be well nigh impregnable.
 Detweiler gets the quarterback berth because he is the fastest man both in headwork and footwork, of any prep man in the state.
 Lewis, of Yuma, and Ed Cain, of Prescott, would look nifty playing halves. No? Both can pass and punt and Lewis has several field goals from past the 40-yard mark to his credit.
 The team as whole would present a strong running attack both as to runners and interference. The for ward pass could also be worked to good advantage. The defense would be powerful and resourceful.

A STATUE FOR PEARSON.
All the faithful are being rewarded

All the faithful are being rewarded --all but Artie Pearson.
 The name of Arthur c. Pearson, that astute politician to whom Gov ernor Hunt owes more than to any one man or group of men, does not appear among the lists of appointees that have poured forth in a steady stream from the state house in the last few days.
 Pearson served as an election off cer in Douglas No. |; although not even a resident of that precinct. He spoiled several bottles of perfectly good bootleg whiskey in the course of the day; he bet money on Hunt and while serving on the board left the room to get up more coin on his fav- orite in the race.
 All these things are admitted and proved. It was proved to the satis- faction of Judge Stanford in the low CT court, that Pearson, as the ballots passed through his hands, kept stub of pencil concealed in his palm and crudely, clumsily changed number of ballots from Campbell to Hsnt. These, and other irregularities caused Judge Stanford to throw out Douglas No. and seat Campbell in the gov ernor's chair.
 Before he took that action Judge Stanford was convinced that Pearson actually changed these ballots. No one could say that he had actually seen Pearson do it, but no doubt was left in the minds of Judge Stanford or anyone who knew Pearson.
 The supreme court, viewing the matter from deeply technical stand point, held that the evidence was not sufficient to throw out the precinct What the judges personally thought of Pearson, if they knew him, could not be allowed to enter into the mat ter. Therefore Hunt is governor.
 Now is Pearson to receive no re- ward?
 Hunt cannot have forgotten the in- valuable Artie. Not if he sustains his reputation for remembering his friends. It can be readily understood however, that no mere political jot could be regarded as a fitting recog. milton for his services.
 It would be very pleasing act fol the governor to contribute the sum he paid for the inspection of the ballots which the Supreme Court has de, creed Campbell must now repay him as start toward an "Artie Pearson Memorial Fund" Let all good Hunt Democrats do their bits. When tht fund has grown to sufficient propor tions, let statue of Artie be erected on the capitol grounds. Let Artie b, depicted with bottle of whiskey il his hip pocket, a cigarette hanging from one corner of his mouth, a bal lot box at his left hand and pile ot ballots under his right. Peepint through the fingers of his faithfu right, of course, must be a stub pen cil.
 1 As further mark of respect fol Artie, let the Hunt Democrats adop a stub pencil as their official badge I Now that we come to think of 1t the old-time motto of the Huntites Look out for No. l." is something ot a tribute to Pearson in itself.-Verdt Copper News.

Chicago, July 17.-Temporary de- clines which took place i'll the corn market today were more than over- come by sharp falling off ill ad vances of shipments to the country. Opening prices. which ranged from 5-S cent to l 1-2 cents lower, with August $1.59 3-4 to 160 1-4 and Sep tember $1.59 7-S to $1.60 1-4 were fol- lowed by p decided rally which car ried August well above yesterdays s 
 About midday the market weakened again under free selling on the part of commission houses, influenced by reports of better crop conditions and by the fact that wheat premiums were fading. Prices closed nervous 34 to 1-4 cents net lower, with August $1.60 to $1.60 IS and September $1.6o Is to $1.60 IA.
 Oats rose with corn. After opening unchanged to 3-S cent lower, with August 72 cents to 72 Is cents, the market scored material upturn.
 Higher quotations on hogs lifted provisions.
 Conserving by shorts kept the mar ket firm in the later dealings.
