The advertising on another
page in the nature of an attack
on Col. Roosevelt by Mr.. Hearst
is in no measure in harmony with
the opinions of the Winslow Mail.
1t is true that Mr.. Roosevelt has
at various times harshly criticized
the administration for its lack of
energy and efficiency in the con-
duct of the war, but never has
he lacked in loyalty and patriot
ism for his country. Even before
the entry of the United States
into the war he could see the day
coming when we would have to
aid the allies if Prussianism was
ever crushed out, and he was not
mealy-mouthed in expressing his
sentiments, and brought down on
his head the maledictions of the
pacifsts and German sympathiz-
ers, among whom was William
Randolph Hearst, one of the lead
ing spirits. When war was finally
declared by this country, the
pacifsts and German sympathiz-
ers had to back-track, and to
save their own faces they COM
menced a concerted attack on
Roosevelt.

Children sometimes cry for
things that are not good for them,
and it is a good corrective prin-
ciple to accede to their demands
occasionally if you are sure it
will make them sick. That is
the way with the special session
Of the legislature. The Hunt
element of democracy were very
insistent on having the legis-
lature meet in special session,
and walls were going up all over
the state demanding it, as they
had visions it would be of great
political advantage; but now
when it is too late they find
themselves very sick and the
party almost disrupted. The Kill
kenney cats were enjoying a
peaceful purring time as com
pared to the two wings of dem
ocracy in the special session.
They could not even pass the bill
condemning the |. w. w. as a

Disgusting Cheap Politics.

Disgusting Cheap Politics.
About the time the United
States entered the war a national
council of defense was named to
direct activities to aid in the war
at home, and at the suggestion
Of the national council. every
state selected a council of de-
fense, and at the suggestion of
the state council every county in
this state organized a county
council, and the county council
organized precinct councils.
There was nothing official in the
selection Of these several coun-
ellis, and men accepted the places
as patriotic duty to the country
without any thought of politics.
remained for the Arizona legis-
lature, through the call of Gov.
Hunt, to take up the matter of
passing special legislation Great
ing the office of council of de-
fense, and give the appointing
power to the Governor for no
other reason than to put a lot of
his particular friends in office,
and to make of the council a
cheap political machine which
will attempt to operate down
through the county and precinct
conncils of defense. The legis-
lature has twiddled away nearly
the whole thirty days of its ses-
sion trying to agree on a bill that
would give political power to the
Hunt democracy, and just at the
closing hour passed a bill that
suits no one, except in the Sec
tion that puts the appointments
in the hands of the Governor.
The only salaried plum that
brought on all this disgraceful
scramble is a secretaryship with
a salary of $2400, now held by
republican. The state council of
defense as now constituted is
filled by men of all political
parties, and so far as the general
public is concerned they seem to
have been discharging their
duties along patriotic lines to aid
in the war; but the mistake they
evidently made was not directing
their efforts to organizing a Hunt
democratic machine, which in
this state seems to be far more
important than aiding in winning
the war. Arizona is IN a most
deplorable condition. Hunt prop
aganda and Hunt politics must
take first rank in all delibera-
tions, and to hell with the war
until these matters are settled to
the liking of the politicians. The
people of Arizona are patriotic;
they have gone over the top on
Liberty bonds, Red Cross funds,
and sending out her soldier boys,
taking first rank among the
states; but it is left to a gang of
politicians to bring discredit on
the state by turning the council
of defense into a cheap political
machine, and to refuse to pass a
resolution condemning the l. w.
w. for fear it might be a refec-
tion on the Governor. That is
the sum total of the work done
by the special session of the legis-
lature that has cost the tax
nor mn

With the United States putting
soldiers in France at the rate of

The people of Arizona have
finally been aroused to action on
the abolition Of capital punish
ment, and an initiative petition
will be filed to submit the ques-
tion Of the restoration to the
voters this fall. We must con-
fess surprise e that Dunbar's S
Weekly publishes a letter from a
convict in the penitentiary ad-
vancing an argument against
capital punishment. 1t is natur-
ally to be expected every crook
and criminal in the country is
opposed to capital punishment,
and if the truth was known they
have the same objections to pen
itentiaries. No rogue ere felt
the halter draw, with good
opinion of the law" 1t is true
that many times murder is COM
mitted in the heat of passion,
but seldom if ever, is the offend
er executed; but when a murder
is committed for robbery, pre-
meditated malice, or an officer is
killed in attempting to make an
arrest, the sooner the offender
stretches hemp the better it is
for the good Of the state. Slob-
bering sentimentalism over red
handed criminals is wasted en-
ergy, and is the spawn from
which crime rapidly developes.
