gle, formed by three items in issue Of this very
normal and national paper.
The first item is sort of sermon by the Rev.
ARTHUR PRINGIE which expresses heartily if a
little hazily such religion generally underlies
the morals of the modern press. II quotes devel-
Opes and perhaps dilutes TENNYsOS's text about
there being faith in honest doubt than i'll half
the crecds. 1t sharply rebukes rulers parents
who interfere with any Independent thought among
those they rule. Ii speaks bitterly Of the bigotry
and persecution encouraged by this idea. that is,
the idea Of the duty of interference with heolog zeal
error.
The writer finds in the fact that we are living
in the twentieth century consolation which is
apparently purely numerical, and to me anyhow is
entirely mystical. But the point is that the Rev
ARTHUR PRINGIE. whom | may respectfully de-
scribe the Chaplain Of the National NerS, insists
that there should be no interference with the yarie
ties of religion and i'll this is probably expressing
theory common TO most writers and readers On
other newspapers well AZ the National Ners
say it is their theory; but it certainly not their
practice.

Will Persecution Return?

poetry as poctical suggestion; that in some
strange fashion the body and the SOUL here 50 often
in conflict will meet like long parted lovers at last.
But those who are the first to believe it would be
the last to pretend TO understand it there is in it
an element not only of transcendentalism but OF
agnOsticism.
Well two generations of raiOnaliSm react
against this large and liberal mystery; they reject
it as a grotesque materialistic superstition They
say that the resurrection of the soul is doubtful,
but the resurrection of the body dwelling.
A Startling Resurrection.
The result of all this ratiOnalism after two gen-
erations is that progressive persons announcing,
not merely the resurrection of the body but of the
boots and gofng stockings. They offer us a super
stiton that is quite literally like the savage super
stitions; one in which the golfer still the ball pur
Sues the golfer and the ball shade. They behold
in vision the ghost of Il Niblick. They look on the
glOrifed shade of Mashie.
All this note as the Nemesis of ma,erialism, but
not altogether sublime justification of spirit
ualisn. 1t only Illustrates the old truth that If You
try to do without the supernatural yOu Will get the
supersttOus; and that if You try to abstain alto
gether from spirits YOU will end by taking too much
Of them. 1t is a very obvious fppancy: but
whether the spirits summon You round the table or
send you under the table the principle is the same.
A Puzzle of an Hour.
But what becomes of the Rev. ARTHUR PRINGLE,
the religious adviser of the National N6TS with his
infinite liberation for every type of religion or lr
religion in the twentieth century,? The very
same paper which prints it prints on the very same
day double diatribe demanding the suppression
of two recently founded religions, MormOnsm and
Spiritualism.
OF course do not identify the National News
with everything in signed contribution do
take too seriously the suggestion of Mr.. PRINGLE as
the ghostly father of the editor. But suspect the
editor would not have set forth such sermon on
such a subject unless he thought it roughly cor
responded to his own opinion. And no doubt it
does correspond to his own opinion. What it does
not correspond TO is his own action.
Acting on far more ancient and perhaps authOri-
tative impulses of the soul he does desire and he
does attempt. to destroy what he regards as hOr-
rble heresies. And when men have come to such
moral INVESTIGATIONS as that their actions are very
likely TO react upon their opinions and their right
hand may teach them terrible things.

Greed Crushers.

For in the same issue Of the same paper ! find
two other highly interesting items, which follow on
Mr.. PRINGLE S tolerant sermon most startling
commentary. rather contrast. The first, which
does not specially concern me, is column of
sensational warning against the spread of the Nor

letters, crush the Mormon ErI NOU. and it Ger

The other item consists of two columns of furious

And wonder if the Spring back and poise against the

For our souls unused TO sing.
Yet the wise of old were our own TO love

Yet past the doors of Death and Birth
A soul might grow great and wise.

When the ink has dried on the pen,
When the sword returns TO the sheath;
When the world of women and men,
And the waters around and beneath,
Char and shrvel and burn
What will God give in return?.
Has he better to offer In heaven above
Than wine and music, laughter and lovei
Laughter, music and wine.
The promise of love in your eyes. .
Sleeping, dread then mine;
Waking, my spirit cries

For just one banquet of laughter and love"
When my flesh returns to It's earth.
When my pen is dust as my sword;

In the eyes of our kindly Lord

That he grant me lowly place
Where His warriors toast Him in heaven above,
With wine and music, laughter and love.

THE MAN FOR THE JOB

w lO Will OS tilS uSlhOSl oNiS
candidate for governor in this
State in 1920? That is the ques-
ton that is paramount with the
democrats in Graham county, as
we'll as in the other counties of
the State.
In every discussion of any par
ticular candidate for the nomina-
ton, emphasis is made on the
fact that the democrats must
choose a man strong in the party
councils, who must not only pos
sess executive ability, but must
be popular and able to unite the
several factions in the party and
carry him to victory over his re-
publican opponent in the 1920
election.
We learn from a large number
of democrats in the State, men
ofinfiuence in democratic politics,
who represent all factions and
have the best interests of the
party at heart. that such a can
didate can be named and they
suggest that the man who really
possesses the confidence of all
factions and can lead the party to
victory is our genial Secretary of
State, Nit Simms, if he can be
prevailed upon to stand for the
nomination.
Mr.. Simms has made a splen-
did record as a county officer in
this county-his work as county
recorder is highly commended.
He was a member of the consti-
tutional convention and later was
elected State treasurer, an office
which he filled with honor and
credit to himself, the State and
his party.
In 1918, Mr.. Simms was elected
Secretary of State by the largest
majority given any candidate on
the State ticket, which we note
as proof of his popularity in his
party. AS Secretary of State he
is making good just as we ex-
pected him to do.
Here in Graham county, we
know him also as successful busi-
ness man and farmer. His splen-
did success with the Big Ranch
brings him to the front as man
of ability.
Arizona is democratic State
by a good majority and in the
coming election in November,
1920, every candidate on the
democratic ticket should be cleo
ted. The candidate for governor
should be the wise choice of a
united party and not of any fac
ton. With Nit Simms at the
head of the ticket, the opportuni-
ty will come for a united party
that will sweep the ticket into a
glorious victory.
While MIR. Simms has not yet
consented or made up his mind
what he will do regarding the
nomination for governor, we be-
lieve he can be induced to run if
the proper pressure is brought to
bear.
We want a candidate for COVER
nor who will work for the best
interest of the party and not for
any particular faction. A man
who is popular with all classes
and one who will lead the party
to success. We believe Nit Simms
can do this and that is why we
nominate him for governor.
