Where The People
 May Have a Hearing
The Redemption of Ireland
Phoenix, Ariz., Feb. 8,

PhoenIX, ArlZ., Feb. <, 1913. Editor, Arizona Republican,;
 In your issue of February 6, ap- peare dan editorial under the head lines The Redemption of Ireland" As a reader of The Republican and par tcularly your able editorials and this say with all candor for your writ ings in general portray a broad grasp of world events. However the full import of the editorial in question was not. clear to me, though it seems to pertain to some resolution acted upon by the Fourth legislature. A more detailed account of this episode may have appeared in your paper though it would hardly have escaped my attention had it been given the prominence and been so we'll featured by an attractive heading as some or the London or Dublin press dispatches as well as others, some of which bear the marks of paid British propaganda, though not all the marks necessary to identify it as such, all attempting to reflect discredit on Ireland and her cause.
 I have always entertained a very high regard for your sense of fairness and justice and trust that it will ever remain so. I must confess that I am still at a loss to understand your at titude towards Ireland and why it is when you make reference to her at all it is to ridicule. When liberty to her is just as sacred as to you or me. ]

IS A CURLING IRON A WEAPON?
(ChicaSo News.)


 Every man knows what curling iron is. but does does every man know whether or not curling iron is a deadly weapon?
 The question was raised in Judge Guerins court in Chicago recently in the Otto Mathis murder trial. Otto said he stabbed his brother. Edward when Ed ward attacked him with curling iron, which he thought dangerous weapon. The judge ruled a description of the weapon unnecessary, every body knew what it was
 Sure l know spectator whispered to another "A curling iron is one of those hot things that burn your fingers when you are fumbling around among the things your wifes dressing table. Tt looks like a pair Of scissors with wooden handles said the other.
 And it's deadly, too" a whispered "Mazie got hers too hot the other night, and the way it killed a lot of her hair was caution
 Fortunately another answered. the curling iron hath misercs that peroxide cannot cure.'
 Assistant States Attorney Daniel Ramsay insisted that there might be single the jury. The judge glanced knowingly at the jurors. The youngest looked bewdered. So Judge Guern ordered de- scription of the weapon supplied The youngest juror appeared relieved when he heard what it was.

 It will be many years perhaps before accurate measure of Mir Roosevelt be taken. A future historian in a clearer light will correctly gauge his influence than amid the dust and smoke of battle.
 There are only two Americans with whom he be compared-washington and Lincoln, and other American can be compared with them. Upon of them depended the foundation of the republic; the other the maintenance of it. These great and momentous occasions, but less vital was the flow which the closing years of the last century when to control it, there less need of a man than there had been of to establish the union, or of another to it.

 HENCE, NJ ELECTION

It will not cost the city much to hold a municipal election this year Only two candidates for the commission have been placed in nomination, Fred 0. Adams, in charge of the job depart ment of The Republican. and Luke Henderson of the Arizona Machinery Manufacturing company. Their peti- tons have been filed with more than foO names attached to each. The time for filing petitions expired last night, the twentieth day before the holding of the primary which will be March l.
 Tnere will, therefore, be no general election, since there are two places to ne lllled and only two candidates to fill them. Only by the process of writing m could either of the nominated can dldates be prevented from receiving majority at the primary. and it is i'm probable that "a written in candidate could receive a sufficient number of votes to make general election necessary
 Otner candidates were talked of and petitions were recently put into circu- latlon for R. H. Brumback and pr. A

Yours truly.
W. J. BURNS.

(The editor regrets that he has been misunderstood by Mir. Burns. For racial reasons his sympathies are with the Irish and with their aspirations for home rule. It was far from this pur pose to ridicule Ireland. Nor was ridi-. cule of the resolution intended, though the resolution could hardly have been expected to exert any influence upon our commissioners at the peace confer ence The editor can only plead that in The Redemption of Ireland he was tempted by occasion afforded by the legislature. into perhaps, ill-timed levity)

 FRENCH ARMY BAND

A mail order for seven seats for the French army band has been received from Ingleside Inn. One of our winter residents, who has a summer home in Connecticut is responsible for this sale. She heard the band in October give a concert in the famous Stoechel music hall at Norfolk, Conn. She states that the concert was one of the most inspiring and patriotic events she has ever attended and she wants to hear it again.
 At the Norfolk concert the receipts amounted to about s6,000. Women dressed in liberty costumes ushered the huge audience. The patriotic enthu- siasm ran so high that finger rings and other personal jewelry were of fered by many in the audience for auction and were sold. the proceeds to go to the French Y. NJ. C. A
