SUFFRAGE IN H SOUTH

By a vote of 10 to 10, the Alabama state senate has
refused to ratify the proposed constitutional amendment
for woman suffrage. This action may be considered rep
resentative of the attitude of the southern states. There
are some exceptions, but the general feeling throughout
the south is decidedly adverse to this extension of the
suffrage. The cause for this feeling is we'll understood.
although we of the north who have not come closely into
touch with southern conditions can scarcely appreciate
the full force of it. The amendment would enfranchise
every woman. black as well as white. The south has had
experience with the negro voter and that experience has
not been to its liking. The mass of the colored popula-
ton in the south is ignorant, largely illterate, and easily
led. The existence in any state Of an element of this
kind constituting a very large percentage Of its popula-
ton is a disturbing and perplexing factor. The suffrage
amendment by adding negro women to the voting pop
ulation would double this particular class Of voters in the
south, and whatever the attitude of the individual may
be toward woman suffrage as an academic question, It is
not at all strange that the people Of the south are OPP
posed to it under the peculiar circumstances which sur
round them.

A FLAG OF NATIONS

The dispatches tell of a Minnesota lady having de-
signed a flag for the League of Nations, and this Is en-
phastzed as something unique. Not to deprive the lady
OF any credit which may be due her, it is proper to state
tnat she IS not the originator of such a plan. Who first
undertook to design a world flag. we do not know, but
it is a fact that a citizen of North Dakota prepared a
design for this purpose as much as ten or twelve years
ago when a League of Nations was entirely beyond the
conception Of many people and had no existence in the
minds Of others except in the most nebulous form. Some
ten or twelve years ago Hon. Budd Reeve Of Buxton.
1faill county. North Dakota, designed what he called
the Flag OF the World" advertised 1t and explained its
dsnificance, and IN due time and with appropriate cere-
monies, which included a speech from the Honorable
Budd himself. he flung the banner to the breeze at the
corner Of Third street and DeMers avenue. Grand Forks.

THE ARROGANCE OF THE DOLLAR

OF all the forms of arrogance that which is inspired
by the possession of money is the most offensive and the
most contemplate. In Great Expectations Dickens
tells the story Of the uncouth and iliterate convict who,
while on his ticket of-leave, has stumbled into wealth,
and who determined to use that wealth, and did use it,
to develop a poor boy into a gentleman" without know
ing the source Of his income young Pip was given good
in the most cultured society with which he was brought
in contact He had seen those whom he considered gen
tlemen. he knew that he could not enter that class him
self. But he felt q fierce pride in demonstrating that he
was able to bring up as good a gentleman as any Of them.
That was not arrogance. 1t was a case of defective
understanding and misplaced values, but he had a respect
and a pathetic yearning after the thing which he knew
was out Of his reach. and which he did not even seek to
possess except vtcariously. But the arrogance Of the dol
lar is shown in the attitude Of one who possesses wealth,
who looks with contempt on all but wealth and the things
by which it may be produced. and who assumes that with
his dollars he can buy all else that he may desire.
Seldom has that attitude been shown more strtkingly
than in the present examination Of Henry Ford. Mr..
Fora testified under oath that he knew nothing about the
story OF Benedict Arnold, or any Of the contemporary
history. He not only declared his ignorance Of history.
but his contempt for it, ana he said that If he wanted to
know those things ne could hire some one to find them
out for him. There speaks the true plutocrat. Money,
to him. is the key with which all doors can be opened. He
can hire men to tell him about the facts Of history; to
paint pictures for him; to compose music for him; to
write aFtaasss TOR him. With amazing effrontery he as
stunned that because he had = lot Of money he could stop
the war. . war in which men were freely giving up their
lives in defense Of something which they knew to 10 inn

Interstate Commerce Commissioner Clark says that
the $4oe, 900, 900 railroad deficit which has been &C.
cumulated while the railroads were in the hands Of the
government should be written off as a war debt. He has
the situations sized up accurately. There is not even a
remote possibility that this sum or any part of it will ever
be turned into the government treasury out of railroad
earnings. The roads have been operated at a net loss.
The shortage is there; it must be recognized and dis
posed Of.
The fact that the government has conducted its rail-
road business at a loss is not of itself proof that the gov
eminent might not be able to make that business self
sustaining and to conduct it to the public advantage.
Neither is the fact that under government control GER
tain transportation work has been carried on to better
advantage than it could have been carried on under pri-
vate management, proof that government ownership and
operation of railroads is a good thing for the country.
Such tests as have been made during the past few years
have been made under abnormal conditions. The rail-
roads were taken over by the government not as an eco
nomic measure but as a war necessity. Whether or not
their operation was made to pay for itself was a matter Of
comparative indifference. The government at that time
was not in the money making business. Nor was it in
the business of ministering to the comfort and convenience
Of its citizens. Its primary purpose was to move men
and munitions and the things which would render men
and munitions useful to the end that the greatest possible
forces of destruction might be brought to bear in the
shortest possible time on the armies of the German an
pire. How much it cost and whether or not the balance
would show profit or loss was a matter of indifference.
In another section of his statement, Mr.. Clark as
serts that railroad rates must be advanced. He recog-
nizes the fact that the returns possible under existing
rates cannot be made sufficient to meet necessary e-
penditures. Either the service must go to smash, ex-
penses must be reduced, or income must be increased.
The Gripping Of our transportation service is not to be
considered. 1t is possible that ways may be found to
reduce some expenses, but inasmuch as the greater part
Of the railroad expenses consist of wages, there can be
no very material reduction in cost without important
wage reductions, and no such reductions are seriously
considered in any quarter. 1t follows with apparent GER
tainty that rates must be advanced.

Town the road. Gordon summoned
all his ready wit and intellect. to
brighten the walk for her. though he
oun himself again and again on the
brink Of referring to his washington
life, or some other personal matter
that would have brought a wondering
question to her lips. He. had decided
that he must not tell her who he was
until he could put her in an independ-
ent position. where she could get
away from him at once If she chose.
He was bound 10 look after her until
he could place her in good hands, or
at least where she could look after
herself. and it was better to carry it
out leaving her to think what she
pleased until he could tell her every
thing. If all went well, they might
be able to catch a Pittsburgh train
that night and be in Washington the
next day. Then. his message deliver

spirit, and pointing to a lark that
darted up into the blue with a trill OF
the morning in his throat.
Gordon turned appreciative eyes
upon her. It was good to have her
take up his favorite poet in that tone
of voice-a tone that showed she too
knew and loved Browning.
Gods in his heaven,
Ais right with the world"
finished Gordon in a quieter voice,
looking straight into her eyes. THAT
seems very true, today. doesn't it?"
The blue yes wavered with a hint
of shadow in them as they looked
back into the brown ones.
"Almost-perhaps." she faltered
wistfully.
The young man wished he dared go
behind that 'almost-perhaps' and
lind out what she meant, but conclud-
ed 1t were better to bring back the
smile and help her to forget for a lit
tie while at least.
Down by the brook they paused to

green-tinged plumes were dabbline in

b|G HOTEL PLANS
 TO BE READY SOON

The million dollar hotel for Phoenix it has no other name as yet-is sev eral steps nearer to the commencement of actual building than most Phoenie ians realize, according to R E. Grace. who left Saturday night for business trip to Louisiana, Kentucky and Chi cago, where he will be joined later by R. l.. Jordan, for the purpose of letting the contract for the erection of the hotel.
 The plans, being prepared by the noted Chicago hotel architects Postle and Fischer. will probably be ready not later than the middle of August, thus making possible the consumma- tion of the original plan of having this big project under construction in Sep- tember.
 The plans call for the building of a modern concrete and steel hostelry nine stories in height, with 300 rooms all equipped with bath and running hot and ice water.
 Many unique features as yet unan- nounced. are to be incorporated in the hotel, both for the comfort of the guests and to make it more thar usually attractive to the eastern tour. ists, several thousands of whom were turned away from Phoenix last veal for lack of hotel accommodations.

COTTON COMPLAINTS
 PLANE SAVES TIME

The Southwest Cotton company's airplane again demonstrated it's use fulness and time saving qualities Fri day when it made business flight from Litchfield to Florence and re- turn.
 It was the first plane that had ever landed at Florence, and when they dropped into pasture alongside the town, in spite of the early hour, a large crowd gathered. including many of the prominent citizens to extend a greeting to the birdmen and ask them to call often.
 The object of the trip was for Lieu tenant Johnson to take F. R. McPher- son, engineer for the Southwest Cot ton company at Litchfield, to Florence on a matter of company business. They made the trip. which is s3 miles by automobile road. in less than an hour landed went to town for breakfast transacted their business, and returned to Litchfield by II a. m., leaving enough time to do practically a ful days work there after a trip tha would ordinarily have taken all da, and left the man taking the trip ex- hausted.
 A hanger has been constructed a Litchfield and the plane is kept ther' subject to call. Beginning today i will be piloted by former LieutenA E. R. varnum of Rockwell field, wh, is making his home, there. Lieutenan O. P. Johnson. who introduced tn, company air service in the valley. ant has piloted the plane to date, will re main with the company in another de partment.
 Lieutenant Johnson was informed a Florence that that enterprising tow is preparing a landing field back O the new high school. to be marke' with the usual big TT" to signify t passing aviators that it is regula landing place. It will be for the US of any and all fliers who may pas that way. and for the aerial mail whei it shall have been established in Ari zona.
