I'VE STILL HAVE THE PRIMARY"

Major George H. Kelly of the Douglas Inter- national, and other reactionary democrats of the state are laboring under the deusion that the party can, iby single resolution spread upon the minutes of state committee meeting, rid it. self of the wobbles and bolshevists inr it's midst Likewise these disciples of conservative democ- racy believe that by calling an elimination con vention they can bar the radicals from running for office under the party banner and do away with the primary.
 The democrats are making active prepara- tions to wage great battle to return to power in Arizona next year. Tom brennan, secretary of the state committee, says he will have $15 900 on hand by next month. Levies are being made on all office holders. The goal has been fixed at $1O0, 900 and, with national aid, it seems certain that the democrats will have that much to ex- pend in this state next year.
 The Hunt forces realize as never before that the pickings are going to be good. They under stand full we'll that the movement to do away with the primary is engineered by the Kelys, the Stonemans the Suffers, the Olneys and other longtime enemies of progressive democracy
 This being the case, resolutions passed by state committee are not worth the paper they are written on. we still have the primary! :" shouted Hunt, Winsor, Boyce, Roberts and lesser lights when they heard of the move to hold convention and bring out dark horse "Wa still have the primaryw shouted the wobblies and the bolshevists when they heard that they had been read out of the party by resolution duly passed. we still have the primary" said the farmers and democrats of Maricopa county when they, read that they had been damned by Charlie Hardy.
 And so it will be. The battle for the demo. cratic nomination next year will not be settled in any elimination convention" but in modern and up-to-date primary in which the masses of democracy will have their say and there will be no frame-up in committee rooms.-Tucson Citi- zen.

LAWS DON'T BREED BRAINS

You can't help admiring our democratic brethren with their heretofore overwhelming majority, in their endeavor to provide such a state constitution and pass laws under it's pro- visions which will make it positively useless for any one but a democrat to run for office with any possibility of success. The constitution and laws, wherever they affect elections or the pos sibility of elections, were gone over in the con- stitutional convention, with the one idea in view mot any idea of electing the right man for the job-the main thing seemed to be that to elect a democrat. With all this previous preparation and the possibilities of their getting decision the measley republicans seem to be gaining and are not even afraid of the democraticly prepared primaries The dGmocratic party can not com bat brains with primary laws. The common people are bound to break into the best laid plans of the overwhelming majority" and help correct affairs of state when they see them going wrong -as they have been in Arizona.

PROBABLY CAN'T READ ENGLISH

A mass meeting of socialists up in Wisconsin renominated Victor l.. Berger for congress right after congress kicked him out. While they have a right to stick by Vic, it would seem that the United States of America should send him a sample copy of xle American flag along with a copy of the constitution of the United States. If this does not help any, we suppose the whole outfit could move back to Germany with all fraight paid. It is probable that Berger never told them that they were living in America, and they elected him as their foreign representative.

IT WON'T WORK

s The organization of a National Labor, party is about one of the best things that could happen at this time It will bring into being party swith one object in view and one purpose-a di- rect alignment of those who are wi4g to work twelve or twenty hours per day to make their business success as against those who believe that a man can do his best for himself and coun- try in six or less hours per day. It is good that the test should come and as quickly as possible It will bring about more education, more reason and a settlement of whether brains are brawn or brawn is brains. Brains like brawn, run in different channels Some brains run to science and to things for the development of mankind ; they gain nothing but living and ofttimes wear rags to prove their worth, and, dying, leaves a name Other brains tend toward the gathering. of the wealth' of the Universe-they die and leave.
 Brain and Brawn have achieved an America.
 Both have their places in the sun.

MAKE THE 'REDs" BLUE AND WHITE

The "reds" have been challenging America long enough. America is a great, big overgrown country and too good natured for it's own good, but no one ever accused it of not being willing to fight when necessity arose. The people have temporized too long with that element they have characterized as "a lot of damphools, just talk ing to hear themselves talk" 1" and have come to realize that the time and place to stop cancerous growths is right when and where they find it. The longer it grows the worse it gets.

It hardly ever fails when an organization gets unwieldly and too prosperous but there is a split-up and re-adjustment all along the line, When you stop to think of it, you will note that organizations for past centuries. Too many peo- ple can not all think alike.

The one fatal mistake that men who call themselves laboring men make is the attempt to decrease the output and hamper production. The world will not accept it as good doctrine and as soon as they find one avenue blocked by this at- ttude, brains step in and invent better and cheaper process, eliminating the would-be block aders. Any kind or class of people may buck and tug as they please, the world is bound to progress just the same

The democratic brethren are now bowling that the responsibility for the defeat of the league of nations is on the republican members of the senate. Strange how tranquil they are in accepting the responsibility and none have de- manded that President Wilson even take it out of his pocket. England may not now have six votes to Americas one.

The general impression not only up north but in the southern part of the state as we'll, is that main line roads such as the National Old Trails route and the Borderland route across the country should be made permanent before the state is cut up with small cross roads. It is a poor railroad that builds it's branch lines first and the main line afterwards.

MT. McAdoo is brilliant fihancier. He says the wages of coal miners should be increased and the price of coal not raised this will result in the mine owners paying less income tax to the government.

Wobblies in jail at Tacoma have gone on a hunger strike. Strange as it may seem, the au- thorities have not attempted to break the strike and are apparently willing that they should starve to death if they do not want to eat. They have been out forty-eight hours without eating or alarming the jailors
