INTELLIGENCE
WILL WIN

Man came to dominion over the
brute, not because he outdid him on
the coarse and savage side, but be-
cause he had in fuller measure the
powers nature puts premium on, and
among men those have gained leader
ship and shaped the destiny of the
race who have been first on the hui
name and manly side rather than on
the savage and animal side. The
hardest Of b~eatitudes to understand
is Blessed are the meek for they
shall inherit the earth" and yet il
is the truest. The coarse. and harsh,
and cruel leave no permanent traces
anywhere. And the same holds true
IN regard to our industrial problems,
the advocates Of Bolshevism, strikes
and violence will be conquered by
the ever forward march of inteIli-
gence.

hearing occasionally, of a certain
learned blacksmith" 1t is to be re-
membered, however, that learning
among blacksmiths was so rare that
the one in question was distinguished
by the definite article. He was not
"a" but "the" learned blacksmith.
So the lack does not reflect on prin-
tiers, after all. 1t is, instead, rather
complimentary than otherwise, as if,
indeed, learning were almost unheard
of in a blacksmith, whereas learning
in a printer is accepted as a matter
of course. Which IS as much as to
say that whatever printers may have
lost on those books that have been
more or less ungrudgingly con-
tributed t. the cause of learning. they
have yet retained a little learning for

WESTERN
BEET SUGAR

The papers are full of sugar
shortage stories and state that the
Western beet sugar crop will soon
be pouring in to relieve the situa-
ton. Whether there is a real short
age as critical as some would have
US think or whether the whole scare
was brought on by the move to prose
cute proiteers in different lines of in
dustry we do not know.
The main point brought out which
interests Westerners is the fact that
due to increased consumption of
sugar, there is no prospect of pro-
duction increasing faster than de-
mand.
Probably no section of the world
has the opportunity to develop tbs
beet sugar industry to such a degree
as western states.
No stone should be left unturne6
to encourage this industry at this
time as it is a land developer, a valu.
able adjunct of stock business and {
great employer of labor, not to men.
ton being a community builder.
Rapid development of the candy in.
dustry in western states is a direc
result of u sugar industry and witt
the elimination of the special five pei
cent excise tax on candy, this in
dustry would grow more rapidly thar
ever.

gineer is proceeding under the rules laid
down by the Federal government to be
followed in carrying out all road work to
be paid for in part by Federal aid money.
1t has been suggested here by the charn-

as possible, to urge the Supervisors and

ties and accept bids for the contract out.
lined, and it any are found to be reason.
able and responsible, to award contract
that any contract awarded would be a
joint contract with the lowest and best
bidder. the State Engineer and the Board
OF Supervisors being parties of the first
part and the contractor party Of the second
part. Such joint contract would mean
that the supervision of the work of the
contractor would also be joint, unless the
county should agree that the state inspec-
tor should also represent the county, which
we would not advise under prevailing
conditions and the friction which has
arisen between the State Engineer and the
Supervisors of this county. In addition to
the supervision of the contract work by
the state and county the Federal aid law
provides that government inspector shall
approve the work done under Federal
aid contract before the Federal aid money
will be provided for the payment of its
part.
This road question interests, or
should interest, every person in the
county, and it is earnestly to be
hoped, as the paper above quoted
says, that there should be no split
ting of hairs or standing on dignity
to prevent the program of road work
being promptly carried out.

Road Situation Nav
Be Cleared Up
Meeting of Supervisors and State
Engineer Monday, 18th


The following article concerning
the road situation in the county,
is taken from the Douglas Interna-
tiOnal:
That the people of Cochise
county may expect an amicable set
tlemeht of the dispute between the
county Board of Supervisors and
the State Engineer at the meeting
to be held at Tombstone on Nov
ember II, is the news brought BY
w. P. Stuart, secretary of the
Chamber of Commerce, who re-
turned Yesterday from Phoenix,
where he had a talk with Thomas
Maddox, state engineer. Accord
ing to Stewart, Mr.. Maddox be-
lieves that everything will be set
tied at this meeting, and that if
the bids for the paving of the No.
2 section of the Blsbee- Douglas
highway are satisfactory, they will
be accepted.
Mr.. Maddox said that the su-
pervisors had thus far agreed to
every step that he had taken, and
that he thought that there is no
legal obstacle in the way of the
course he had pursued in advertis-
ing for bids. The desired govorn-
ment aid for building Cochise
county roads will match state and
county expenditures, but payment
by the government is contingent
upon acceptance by government
and state engineers of the work
done. Therefore it is necessary
that the State Engineers depart
ment exercise certain supervision
and control over the work, even
though county funds are being ex-
pended. Unless the work is ac-
cepted by the State Engineer the
entire burden falls on the county"
Further light On the situation is
given in an editorial article in the
same issue, which says:
The meeting Of the Board of Supervi-
sors to be held in Tombstone on Monday
next will be one of unusual importance.
At this meeting action will determine
whether or not this county is to go ahead
with the paving Of the road between
Douglas and Bisbee until this work is fin
ished, and whether or not the county is
to receive federal aid money from the
government to pay for half the cost Of the
uncompleted work on this piece of road
There has been objection on the part OF
Supervisors Roberts and Adams to the
dCtAOu Oh tIaC Otdtc I-ISlHSeI ln advertising
for these bids in his own name as State
Engineer, instead of advertising in the
name of the State Engineer and the Board
