World Safe for Democracy.

The proletariet Of Winslow, un-
der the leadership of Bill Grocer,
Rev. Brewster, Father Albouy,
Prof. Votaw, Jud Lathrope, and
the editor, have organized a pub
lie forum to discuss the knotty
problems of government as they
arise from time to time, and see
they are properly and promptly
adiudicated. The sessions are
being held in the guild hall at
the Episcopal church, where the
faithful gather around with their
pipes, and wisdom percolates and
filters through the smoke.
The first session was held last
Wednesday evening, and the sub
ject under discussion was the.
League of Nations. Prof. Vo-
taw opened the foray with his
long range guns that reached
backed 5000 years B. c., to show
the idea is not a new one, and
while all previous efforts to pre-
vent war had failed he was sure
this new plan now before the
Paris conference would be a sue
cess. Following Mr.. Votaw there
was a round-robin melee, catch
as-catch- can, refereed and UNI
pired by Rev. Brewster, in which
every one present took turn or
two on one side or the other.
Hostiities ceased and a truce was
declared about II p. m.
1t is the purpose to meet once
a month, and everybody is well
coined to get into the game. If
you are in doubt on any public or
economic question, attend the
meeting and make your troubles
known, and it will be fully elucl-
dated and adjusted while you
wait. Due notice Of the date of
the next meeting will be given.
Nobody barred if you furnish
your own smoking utensils.
Matches furnished free.

Slipping from Grace.

VIM. Nagle, who has been an
engineer on the Santa Fe for
several years past, has purchas-
ed an interest in a general mer-
chandise store at Springerville,
and leaves this week to take up his
new responsibilities. We hate to
record this slipping away from
grace of one of our heretofore
respected citizens, whom we al
ways considered a model for
young men to follow. There is
little hope for his reformation as
we view it now, and in a few
years he will belong to the idle
rich class. and be riding in a
Ford. Our people will be sorry
to lose Mr.. and Mr.. Nagle as
citizens.

word last week that his aged

posed Mrs. Nagiller got up in
the night and in some manner
overturned the lamp, setting her
clothes and the house on fire.
When the flames were discovered
every effort was made to rescue
the unfortunate woman. DeceaS-
ed was ninety years old.

Leupp Indian Band.

Our people, who heard the
Leupp Indian band when in the
city couple Of weeks ago, will
be glad to know an effort is be-
ing made to have this musical or
ganization give a series of open
air concerts during the summer.
The leader of the band, Mr.. J.
ID. Howard, is full blood Sioux
Indian, who was educated and
given his musical training at the
Hascall Indian School at Law
renee, Kan, and the twenty
young men who comprise the
oand, are full blood Navajo In
dians. 1t is by far the best brass
band in Northern Arizona.
The local base ball sports are
also trying to arrange for a Sc
ries of ball games with the team
from the Indian school.

All Boys Again.

Last Friday evening the three
young men, Claude Phillips, John
Nelson and Sherman Anderson,
who will graduate from the high
school this year. together with
Supt. Grover, and Profs. Lesh,
Votaw and Glenn, and. the edi-
tor, enjoyed a dinner at the Har-
vey House. The table was tasti.
ly decorated in the class colors
of red and black, and button
aires in the same colors, were
attached to the place cards. A
handsome potted fern added to
the table decorations. The boys
and the editor would have had a
good time had not the faculty
been watching all the time to
keep their conduct circumspect.
and we were placed so far apart
we could not even kick one an
other on the shins. During the
course of the dinner most all the
vexed questions Of the day were
to the entire salts
faction of the company.
