On Prohibition


Recently when the "drys" succeeded in having the
legislators ratfy the amendment which prohibits the sale
or manufacture of liquor the question asked whether
or not this amendment infringing upon the liberties
OF an American citizen; whether not any BODY Of
lawmakers could decide upon the personal habits of
Ever since records of mans doings have been written
there has been mention made of wine drinking
In the Bible read of how Noah became a yinevard
cutlvator and how he became intoxicated by his own
VINE from time mmemorial, when an important guest
was recelvo Wine drunk to his health and welfare

was shown and good will expressed form of liquor
was used Therefore the anti prohbitionists think it
very wrong for any to take away their expression
OF good will And arguing further they say that liquor
IS not the only thing that the reformers want but that
they VIII want in quick succession tobacco and other
innocent forms of enjoyment"
But let US see both sides of the question Is this

"BoIshev;kists" Again

"Bolshevkists' is very long word for war time
traitors 1t originated in Russia for the people
that thought they a majority party. Since then
they nave spread all the world in the form of
chsts and rebels but the true meaning of the word is
misinterpretcd.

the dHercnt countries and get ther o>vn deals into
power Bolshevkists like the heas on dog that are
not 1ata but keep him always busy and uncomfortable
inns IS one of the foremost things that hndered the
Victory Loan and lots of other after the war important
business that is really vital to the public.
When the bombs were sent to the different Senators
short time ago they most probably by group
OF boshevlklsts that sought to take the lives some
the counryS best men, the real purpose being

URGE OF A BIG IDEA

A man is not success in life until a dominant purpose takes hold of him to which all other procedures and all measures and all the powers of his being are subordinated.
 Sorrowful is the state of the man who, at any age, has let himself be tanned and fastened down to an un- seeing, minimizing jog trot in the same old rut, day after day.
 A man is not old until he refuses to admit new light, embrace fresh ex. periences, entertain thoughts that never occurred to him before, open the doors and windows of his mind to the morning.
 Perhaps we hugged to ourselves the delusion that we were doing the best we could. It is so easy to feed the aspiring spirit upon that anodyne. IL is easier to dream than to make an effort; easier to accept things as they are than to change them.
 Then comes a vision of what we might be and are not, and it chal- lenges us and will not let us rest.
 We must be up and doing. We know at last what we were made for, what we were sent into the world to. do. Life becomes purposeful, and each waking minute has it's mission.

GOMPERS PLAYS BURLESON

President Gompers, of the Ameri- can Federation of Labor, declared in an interview recently that Postmaster General Burleson is an autocrat and thinks in the terms of,a past age.
 "The other day." he said, "l had a last talk with the postmaster general. He said that he would be glad to see any of the employees of his depart ment at any time and would be glad to receive any complaint from any of them. told him he should know that that would be impossible, because both pressure of business upon his time and timidity on their part would prevent that. l went on to say to him that the age of autocrats and despots had passed, that our boys had died in Eu- rope to prevent that sort of thing; that there was no longer any room for even a benevolent despot.
 Collective bargaining is principle heartily endorsed by former President Taft in. his joint chairmanship of the War Labor Board. In that connection MT. Taft has earned the highest ap- proval for his really sympathetic and unselfishly interested attitude" ..

LABOR NOT DEMOCRATIC

"The Democratic party and the So- cialist party are dead, and the Re publican party is coming into power,"' said John Fitzpatrick, president of the Chicago Federation of Labor and recently candidate of the labor party for mayor of his home city, in an in- terview at the American Federation of Labor convention in Atlantic City.
 Neither the Democratic nor the So- cialist party now satisfies the con. servative and constructive demands of labor" he went on. Except in words they do not know that new order IS at hand. The Republican party will sweep the country next year and then will come into national prominence a labor party, which will take the place of the then defunct Democratic organ ization. We did not make so much of a showing with our 50,000 votes in the Chicago election, but we made start in the direction of labor party, and since they have elected mayors of nine cities in Illinois. Of course, if the Republican party satisfies our ends, all well and good; but, take 1t from me, the Democratic and Socialist par ties are dead So far as labor is con cerned."

RUMORED CLOSING
 OF OAK CREEK
 WAS A MISTAKE

According to information just re- ceived from Phoenix there is no dan ger of the curtailment of the fishing season on Oak Creek It was also stated that F. o. Allen, deputy game warden of Flagstaff, who recently made an inspection of the stream, did not recommend the closing of the sea- son in that district, the original &C., count of his report being in error.
 The news will be received with a great deal of satisfaction by the big sportsmen of the district. The an- nouncement that recommendations had been made by MT. Allen that the stream be placed under the ban arous- ed a storm of protest which resulted in the filing of several petitions with the state game warden, expressing the disapprobation of the anglers of Je- rome, Clarkdale, Verde, and Cotton wood. The local fishermen were joined by others in Phoenix and Prescott who annually visit the creek for a battle with the fnny beauties which turk in it's recesses.
 An investigation has disclosed the fact that there was an error in the ac- count which announced that the game warden was contemplating this action as a result of the report of Allen. The story of his report was confused with the closing of the Catalina game preserve in Pima county by the corre- spondent who sent out the item. The substance of Mir. Aliens report mere ly suggested that the state official take some steps to stock the stream which has been allowed to deteriorate during the past few seasons.
 The suggestion of the deputy game warden met with the approval of the local sportsmen. For some years Oak Creek has been stocked exclusively by local business men who have borne the expense of the upkeep by popular subscription. For several seasons, however, no one has appeared to take action, and the stream has been sadly neglected.-Jerome News.
 Deputy Game Warden Allen and the people generally up this way have been wondering who started this story and why they originated it out of whole cloth, unless for some ulterior purpose.
 No suggestion of closing Oak Creek to fishing has ever been made, either by State Game Warden Prochaska or Deputy Game Warden Allen.

NO MORE HYPHENATES
 SAYS GENERAL WOOD

General Leonard Wood, colonel of the Rough Riders when Roosevelt was lieutenant colonel, trainer of two divi- sions in Kansas camps in this war, former governor of Cuba, and in ex- ecutive authority in the Philippines, former chief of staff, the only general officer wounded at the front in France, and now in command of the central department, at Chicago, had this to say at commencement exercises here in Washington:
 At this time last year we were looking forward to long war. Our troops were just commencing to play an important role in the great strug- gle for civilization and fair dealing among peoples. Today the nations are engaged in preparation for just and, we hope, lasting peace. One of the first problems that confronts us is the return to their homes of the men who are coming back from over seas. Their objective was the enemy and they got him. Our men fought with splendid courage. They lived up to the highest traditions of our mili- tary service and in their performance of duty gained the admiration of Eu- rope. They never failed. They all ways took their objective.
 "Now is the time to show an intel ligent appreciation of what these men and the men in the training camps have done. There were four million of them. Their influence in this country is going to be very power ful. If we do the right thing toward them, we shall have in the home of each one of them center of patriot ism and a spirit of service which will go far to keep alive sound patriotic spirit. A great part of the world is very much upset and dangerous ideas are abroad. We want to keep our feet on the ground and hold on to the ideals and policies which have made us great, to the constitution and the policies whose wisdom has been dem- onstrated by our security and prog ress. We must do all we can to con- tinue to build up a sound national spirit, an intense Americanism. We must complete the work of fishing into one homogeneous mass of Ameri- cans the various elements which make up our population. We have had in our armies representatives of all the fighting groups in Europe, and l want to say a word of appreciation of the loyalty of the citizens of alien descent. Some of them came from the blood strains of our enemies. We have only to read the lists of our dead to realize that these Americans of German and other descents have been loyal. They have written anew their oath of alle- glance. This time it has been written in their own blood. These new people are now a part of us in every sense. So let us hear no more of hyphenated Americans and look upon all who have been loyal as Americans"

A GIANT SKELETON
 EIGHTEEN FEET TALL

AUSTIN, Tex, June 14.-"If the report that the fossilized skeleton of a giant eighteen feet tall has been found near Seymour, Tex, is true, it is the most important ethnological dis covery ever made in the world" re- marked Dr. J. E. Pearce, professor of anthropology of the University of Texas. Ut would break all previous records of giants by nearly ten feet. as the tallest man known to anthropo- logical research was only eight feet 5 inches in height"
 The skeleton is in possession of w. J. Mckinney, Houston, Tex, oil pros- pector, who found it, and has been seen by number of people who vouch for the truth of the size of the relic of heretofore unknown race.
 MT. Mckinney, while making an ex- cavation on the narrow watershed be- tween the Brazos and Wichita rivers, came upon the fossilized skeleton near the surface. Mir. Kinney writes:
 q estimate that this man weighed from two thousand to twenty-five hundred pounds. According to my de- ductions he lived about twenty-eight hundred years ago. The skull is six times the size of that of an ordinary man."
 MT. Mckinney does not explain how he arrived at the figures as to the probable period of the existence of this remarkable man. It is probable that the bones of the giant will be donated to the Smithsonian Institution which, under the direction of Dr. J. Walter Fewkes, is now conducting an- thropological research work in Texas.

Mother" said George, as he pre- sented his office chum, who had come to spend Saturday afternoon with him, "this is my friend Mrs Speck- noodle" Now, it happened that the lady who is the heroine of this vera cious history was rather deaf.
 "I'm sorry," she said, with her hand to her ear, "but didn't quite catch the name"
 "My friend, MT. Specnoodle! then shouted George.
 "I'm sorry," said his mother, but I can't hear it distinctly"
 "Specknoodle" George fairly bel lowed.
 I'm afraid it's no use," said the old lady, as she sadly shook her head. It sounds just like 'Specknoodle' to me"
 Then George said something else, and her hardness of hearing came in useful.

AND SHE DID

The curly-haired little sprite of the house came running to her father in the study, and, throwing her arms about his neck, whispered confiden- tially in his ear:
 "Oh, papa, it's rainingW
 Papa was writing on subject that occupied his mind to the exclusion of matters aside, so he said rather sharply.
 "Well, let it rain," he said.
 "Yes, papa, I was going to-" was her quick response.

VALUE OF A TON OF LEGUME
 HAY TURNED OVER

One ton of peavine hay or other leguminous hay contains. in round number, 45 pounds of nitrogen (30 pounds of which would likely come from the air), 10 pounds of phosphor- ic acid and 30 pounds of potash. Most of our lands will produce one ton of this or more, and if left on the soil they would add to it for each ton sufficient nitrogen to grow bale of cotton, and there would be enough potash left in good condition for over two bales and almost enough phosphoric acid for bale Land treated in this way, especially if only the better cotton lands be used, will grow a bale of cotton to the acre easily, with the addition of $4.5O or $6 wor tn of phosphoric acid and potash per acre, and increase in productiveness under the treat ment.
 This in my judgment is the only immediate and practical way to re- duce the fertilizer bill. keep up or increase the productiyeness of the land, and at the same time do profitable farming-The Progressive Farmer.

NATloN-WiDE CAMPAIGN FOR BETTER PACKING AND MARK
 ING OF EXPRESS SHIPMENTS

Plans of most comprehensive na- ture to bring about conditions which will make possible marked inn provement in the express service throughout the country. were an nounced last night by J. E. Brisr, local representative of the American Railway Express Company. Pet ter Service Campaign" will be under taken by the 135.00O men and women employed in the express business, for the purpose of raising the stand ards of packing. wrapping and mark ing express shipments.
 The drive will start on February 10, in every city and town in the country. 1t will comprise cam paign of education and appeal among express employees simultaneously with a widespread effort to secure the co- operation of the shipping public along the same lines. No new packing or marking rules have been adopted for the campaign, but express drivers and receiving clerks will be instructed hereafter to insist, firmly but courte- ousiy, that the rules already in force be strictly adhered to.
 The chief purpose of the Better Service Campaign" is to check once and for all. the waste of time, effort and money that result from lost or
