The fact that Dempsey has dispos-

What win Me Do Tomorrow?

Tomorrow will be one of the turning points in the history of Maricopa county.
 Men and communities have turning points We do not move straight ahead many suppose The way forward is always tortuOus. It IS important that the turn be made in the right drec ton.
 Are we going to remain stuck in the mud when it rains; continue to be srnothered with dust when doesn't, and at all times to founder along chuck holes?
 We will know tomorrow.
 We know that there is no other county in the state with worse, more disaraceful roads than own.
 No man can cross MarlcOpa county without ryiug with him an impression that ours is the least progressive community in the state.
 That is the reputation we have abroad and it has done US good abroad.
 People from abroad did not drive into Maricopa county for pleasure and they did not come oftener than it was necessary for them to do.
 We are proposing to remedy this state of affairs and will take the first step tomorrow.
 Nearly all of our citizens are agreed that some thing should be done. We do suppose that any one IS much of mossoaek to want let things rest they
 But there are few of our citizens who want, or profess to want to do it in a different way.
 Each has a plan of his which he thinks is the best, and when his plan is analysed it is found to be one which benefits him individually.
 Such plans as that can be brought into harmony with other individual plans. Thus have many plans which naturally unavoidable with public sentiment behind them.
 The plan which will be submitted to the voters tomorrow, has been carefully worked cut
 It not made to suit any individual or any particular neighborhOod. It made for the benefit of the whole county-so that the benefits would be distributed nearly equally possible.
 There may be defects in it. every thing else human has been found to be defective so that we suppose that here and there this one might have been improved
 But it is the only plan have and we do not believe better could be made or agreed upon.
 If it should not be ratified tomorrow we will be left just where when the whites began to come We mistaken; rot quite where we are or where will be; the ruts and the chuckhoes all the time will be getting a little dseperi the Ahah centers," little higher.
 But will have no roads. H On the other hand, # you vote right today, we will begin to have good paved roads, your prop erty whether it is in the country in the towns, will take added value; it's increase will be far greater than your share of the good roads system.
 Vote for yourself tomorrow
 Vote for the bonds
 Vote for Maricopa county if you love it.

The Deposition to Penrose

Though the policies of the progressive party Irre vail within the republican party. the called regu- lars (though now that distinction is apt) out number the extreme progressives in the republican membership of the senate. We do not mean by "ex- reme" that those members are at present irreconc- able, but we mean men who were very prominent in the progressive movement They are the least will ing to enter into compromises which may be regarded compromises of the principles they espoused years ago and which have in the main been accepted by the republican party,
 There are other progressves who are willing to make concessions to regularity and however much they dislike to do will accept the rue of tho majority of a conference or d caucus.
 The things which divide the republican sen ators are not principles but men Once these diff ferences are bidged fairly harmonious action by the party in the senate may be expected The opposition to Senator Penrose is largely personal He was among the standpat leaders who were most offensive to the progressves Chicago in 1912 He has never been forgiven and he has never manifested signs of repentance
 His leadership the head of an important com ntee would be most bitterly resented and wouId he constant peril to the very slender republican ma jority in the There are few other republican senator's whatever their records in the last seye,, years, whom the progressives could not be brought 10 accept but not Penrose It therefore seems uI,- wise to try to force him upon them
 The evident strength of Penrose does not lie in his personality the opposition to him largely does

Germany Must Sian

 It is easy to see why any German government would baI at accepting the terms It would not be D natural for a government to resign rather than to sign it. Though the government is left no other choice, its acceptance of the treaty would be most unpopular thing and there would be popular belief that stronger government would have secured bet ter terms
 But if the present government or some govern Heut does not sign the treaty Germany will have to set up government for the express purpose of ac- ceptng the disgrace.
 There will probably be renewal of the war in the event that Germany should continue stubborn The allies have of enforcing the terms of the treaty of applying pressure that will cause stub borness to give way

What the Service Men Did

In the distribution Of credit for splendid work done in the Victory loan campaign. a proper award has not been made to the service men, those boys who rsked their lives in France. With an equally fine spirit of self-sacrifice they threw themselves into the campaign for the sale of the Victory bonds
 They were present at the meetings, infusing patriotism into audiences both in the city and the country and they performed earnest and telling work as shock troops who in the closing days of the campaign broke down the barriers of reluctance and hesitation which threatened 10 leave this city and county behind their quotas.
 It was the belief of the service men that the war was not over until it finished until their comrades had been brought home. and though they themselves had been discharged they fought it out nobiy.

The Use of Water

This is an instance. And it is not solitary one. There ought be of them and then there would be no apprehension of water shortages.
 There is a small field of wheat Phoenix which is said by experts to be good stand" there is in the valley. It was raised by a who year ago knew as much about farming he knew about agriculture as it is procticed on Mars.
 He knew that he did not know and he went to headquarters for inforrnation-to the county agent other problems from time to time have been sub mitted to the agent to the experts of the Uni ycrsity of Arizona
 The county agent directed this embryo farmer, this agricuhur1st the chrysaIs stage to see how much water he could avoid using. He told him to irrigzts thoroughly his land before planting and after few days plant and then wait long time be- fore 1rrigating again.
 Any scientific farmer will understand the reason for this advice but will not go into that since this relates only to the saving Of water.
 In due time there another irrigation but that did not take place until investigation of the ground showed moisture near the surface There has been other irrigation and probably there win be since the wheat has taken on beautiful golden tnge and the farmer is worrying about the harvesters and the threshers
 There is other wheat in that locality but none approaching this in appearance and promise The other fields have been flooded whenever water was available and were kept flooded as long as the water could be had.
 We hear much about the magic touch" of water to the sands. In this country we cannot farm with out water But there is such a thing as too much of the magic touch-too much water for good crops.

Why Reform Is Slow in China.

One will sometimes see groups of
Chinese women comparing their feet
to see who can boast of having the
largest. This Is particularly true Of
native women who have become
Christians or who have been educated
in the Christian schools, They feel a
new independence-an independence
Of body as well as of mind and soul
and are proud That the old bodily
shackle of manned feet is gone.
The reform, however, in spite of the
fact that China has a law prohibiting
the binding Of girls feet, has not
reached further than the cities and
the higher classes. 1t has been calcu-
lated by the former Peking corre-
spondent of the London Times, after a
long journey through the Interior of
China, that 95 per cent Of the women
still have mutilated feet. China's
numbers are so immense that 1t will
require long period to leaven the
whole lump.

WHY
Tradition Has Hallowed the
Church of St. Giles

st. Giles church. In Edinburgh.
stands for unadulterated Scottish ira
dition. From its massive stone COL
umns, centuries old. to the crownlike
dome which towers over Edinburgh
st. Giles is typically Scottish-of the
old-time Scots who wore the plaid and
talked language of their own.
ST. Giles has served as back
ground for much history and romance
In time of Civil war 1t has been turned
into a well-armed fort, and In time
OF so-called peace 1t has been plum
dered and burned. It's many alcoves
have at times been parceled out for
distinctly worldly purposes, such as a
jail, town clerks office, school and
court, while the nave and altar were
reserved for the minister and his con-
gregation.
OF st. Giles stories, none Is more
popular than the dramatic adventure
Of Jenny Geddes and the three-legged
stool. A certain king ordered the
service of the Church of England read
in st. Giles which was a stronghold
Of the Scotch Presbyterian faith. The
dean Of st. Giles started bravely to
conduct the service amid harmless but
disturbing protests and growls from
his hearers. But Jenny Geddes. an
old vegetable vender, soon saw that
the dean was unimpressed by mere
words. She seized the three-legged
stool on which she had sat and hurled
1t with deadly aim. The dean duclled
and fled, and the Church of England
service was never attempted in st.
Giles again.
