THAT PLAIN PEOPLE" STUFF

President Wilson continually talks about his Special understanding and appreciation" of the workers" and the "pain people," Where did he learn so much about them? He was either a col lege student or professor continuously from 1874, when he entered Davidson College as a student, until he left Princeton University to be- come governor of New Jersey, excepting two years he spent in an unsuccessful effort to ac- quire law practice at Atlanta, Ga. Since 1902 he has been continuously a politician and office holder. Before he became candidate for office he had pronounced views about labor unions, and unprofitable servants, and ignorant "crews" from the south of Europe, which did not indicate that he was lying awake nights worrying over the welfare of the proletariat He has been sur- rounded by wealth and social and educational exclusiveness all his life. He is the most seclud ed and exclusive president the American people have ever experienced.
 Yet MT. Wilson continually utters patronizing phrases about "the humber classes" and "the simple firesides," and the "pain jackets as if he had been a rail splitter or blacksmith or some thing all his life The truth is that the only way to understand the common or garden variety of folks is to be one of them and to live with them MT. Wilson, with all his affectation of undyng love for the proletariat, knows only one thing about those he calls "the plain people and that is that in this country they have a lot of votes This is the plain, unvarnished truth of the mat ter, and the country is really getting rather fatigued with this continuous flow of college rhetoric about the Common people,"

AMERICAN FORESTERS
 FAVOR MORE FORESTRY
 FOR GREAT SOUTHWEST

ALBUQUERQUE, N. M., June D. The first move made in the South west in the interest of the nationwide campaign for vastly enlarged forest production and the application of the forestry principles to all forest land was inaugurated here with a meeting of the southwestern section of the Society of American Foresters.
 The foresters advocated the imme- diate extension of state and govern ment regulatory powers in forestry to all lands in the United States that shall be classified as primarily valu- able for timber culture. It was point ed out that with destructive method.; of logging in effect on the overwhelm- | ing bulk of all forest lands through out the nation, with .recurrent fires devastating huge areas and rendering them sterile for decades, with little effort to provide for a future timber crop except on state and national for ests and the timber lands of few of the more progressive private own CTS, the country is facing in the near future serious shortage of lumber.
 With this situation in mind, the so- ciety voted unanimously in favor of the following forestry program for Arizona and New Mexico.
 CD The passage of adequate state fire laws as an aid in the prevention of the annual forest fire devastation, such laws to take the form of fire-law enforcement by existing state, county, and municipal officials and the punish ment of persons who wilfully or neg ligently start forest fires.
 (2) Fire cooperation with owners of large private timber holdings.
 (3) Cooperation with states and private owners in the cutting of tim Der according to the principles of for estry, technical assistance to be fur nished by the federal government.
 (4) The passage of adequate tim berland tax laws, with tax on the land as real estate and another tax on the timber itself, but collected only when the timber is cut or harvested. It was pointed out that all existing tax laws regard timber as a part of the real estate itself, instead of as crop; that the timber is taxed con tinuously, although it takes two cen turies in the Southwest for Western yellow pine to grow from the seed to the mature tree ready for cutting; and that it is therefore unprofitable for private owners to hold young tim Der for future cutting.
 (5) The acquisition of private tim Der holdings by the federal govern ment by purchase, with provision for financial return to the states at least equal to the present returns from taxation.
 Committees were appointed to work out the detailed program.

ALL IN A LUMP

Senator Charles Curtis, of Kansas, has in- troduced bill which will authorize the Bureau of War-Risk Insurance to pay to beneficiaries of soldiers the amounts due them in lump sum, at the election of said benefciaries. Under the present law payments can be made only in in- stallments The original purpose was to provide benefits over considerable period and to protect those who might be tempted to waste their money if paid to them in lump sum. Senator Curtis bill is designed to afford relief to those who could make better use of the money if they had it is in lump-sum available for investment.

SAYS DRUG EVIL GROWING

Dr. Ernest S. Bishop, author of forth-com- ing book on "The Drug Evil,' says that there are more people addicted to the drug habit than there are afflicted with tuberculosis in the United States, and that it is a growing evil rather than decreasing. Many contract the habit during war, as was shown at the end of both the Civil War and the Spanish-American War. He believes that the habit is in most cases uncon- sciousy contracted and that it affects all classes and that the vicious element who contract the habit wifully are greatly outnumbered by mir isters, lawyers, judges, professional men and others. It is not pleasant condition to contem- plate and he advocates nationwide movement to properly handle the disease, as he terms it.

The Sun is exceptionally proud of the fact that it's advertisers get results and are willing to tell about it. As matter of face The Sun now reaches the people all over the northern part of Arizona and is the best advertising medium that can possibly be used, it's columns for the past months show what the prosperous business men think of it, and they have come to the conclusion after fair trial that it is the best investment they can make, directly and indirectly. It is diff ficult to make The Sun all we wish to, but just watch us grow; and another thing to feel proud of is in just watching our advertisers grow.

Spencer, of Missouri, to appropriate $500,000 for the purchase and maintenance of cemetery in France in the name of the United States for the interment of the bodies of American officers and men who lost their lives in connection with the European war.
