At the Arcade

The Atlantic Distributing Corpo
ration is responsible for ''nine-tenths
of the Law which has Mitchell
Lewis featured and which it manu-
featured for the screen as the state
rights proposition. There is nothing
wrong with this picture from any
angle; the story is admirably played
by strong cast and most consistent
ly acted throughout. The scenario
! holds we'll from the start and has a
twist at the finish that enables the
| director to give the story happy
final that is bound to meet heart ap-
| probation anywhere.
Reaves Easton handled the film
production and did a masters Job.
Not only did he keep the story at
high tide, but has his little son play
ing a role that proves beyond all
double that the kid is a chip of the
old block when it comes to register
ing before the camera and acting a
role with typical expressions. As to
Mitchell Lewis, he is Just as clever
as he was in any of his other big
thin characters and in the role of
the strong-hearted, righteous. home
loving trapper of the North Woods
he mt only looks the type, but enacts
1t naturally, grippingly and effective
ly. Miss Maye lends him excellent
support as his wife and is bully in
her emotional scene.
Eason, as the drunken. rough and
hardy Woodsman who went to sleeD
with liquor, his conqueror. made the
Characterization stand out every inch
OF the fllm way and the fight in the
caoin with Lewis proved big sub
Other scenes were also
spiendidly staged and acted realisti-
cally by Eason, and in each. whether
Miss Maye, his cabin mate. or Lew
IS, he was there with an effective
makeup and manner not to be de-
.iled. The cast as whole gave Lew
is Al support. As to the direction
and story there is no |
KICK. In fact, the combination is
happily blended into a screen story

WE, US & COMPANY

There IS no more reason because of labor or other troubles that the people should be cut off from coal, food and clothes, than there is that everyone must go to hell because he does not be- long to your church. The laborer has his troubles every day in the year. There is no question about that, or that the laborer is usu- ally in the worst position to get his wrongs righted just as as he would have them. Nine times out of ten the real sympathy of the vast middle class is with the laborng man-thay work in and out with the laboring man and have had their troubles with the so-called capitalist The middle cass-and they are real, the conserv- ative, home lovers, home builders and the veri- table backbone of the nation, are the ones who feel the big burden and are the ones to whom all in distress come to in the end for help. The great middle class have no union-they are will ing to work all the hours that are necessary to see that the freaks and the financiers do not make it impossible for them to live. They live and love. They try to own their own homes and when it comes to the strenuous things of life war and the like-they are the ones who are called upon to do the heavy work of lifting the nation out of the mud. Some get commissions, but the most of them don't They just happen to stand in between the jam to take up the slack as it were-and regardless of the contending fac tions, they do This same element has never been found wanting when there was real danger to the old U. S. A. We want to belong to that element of society, and at least 75 million of the 100 million do belong to that element.

OPEN SEASON FOR I. w. w,

It is to be hoped that the United States de. clares an open season on all I. w. w., bolsheviks and kindred organizations. The people of Amer ica who count, are willing to accept new ideas and want progression. There is no glaring need for destructive policies, fads and crazy fancies Those who will not hope and help build belong to that class who only hope to gain through riot. disorder, outlawry, license and licentiousness In other words, ungoverned with freedom to take, use or destroy as the individual mind list eth. The big scheme in their pygmy minds seems to be to take by might and let lust run wild as was done in Russia. The shots that were fired on the American legion in the Centralia parade on November II which killed returned soldiers, should be the murderous shots heard and needed in every home in America. When men are murdered in cold blood for their love of America; men who have helped make the world safe for democracy and rendered their lives to the cause; whipped the Huns, and then "at home" IN AMERICA are shot down in the streets in parade in honor of the great event, don't you think it is time that the REAL PEO- PILE should start something to protect their homes and their country?
 The meay-mouthed politician is the only thing in the way of making cleaning of such conditions in our country. This "bowelless thing" gets elected because he is such a vacuum :; he is for everybody, anything that anyone wants; he is the lover of all mankind

THE STATE UNFAIR

Nearly everyone coming back from the state fair were we'll pleased with the fair but when hotels and eating houses were mentioned, they became exceedingly torrid and words were men, toned that should not even be thought of within two miles of a meetin' house. They seemed to have "plus system" in hotels-the minimum price was $6 per night; if there were more than six in room they added dollar each per each. If they found that people were sitting up all night, they added that to their guests the fol- llowing day. AS for eating, why, person could get cracker and glass of water most any place for couple of dollars. The railroad accommo- dations were equally as good. A person could pay his railroad fare month in advance, walk part way and catch a ride in Ford the rest of the way.
 The next session of the legislature should abolish the state fair and let it stay abolished until the people of Phoenix give the people of the state guarantee that they will play square. There is an awful grumble among the people along that line and the chances are that the people of Phoenix will have to square it before the people of the state allow the grumble to rolling up into real storm.
The Coconino sun., 1919-11-21
GATHERING AT THE TREASURY

Br'er Mills of the Phoenix Messenger says Every democrat in Arizona should remember that the republican newspapers of the state are trying to SOW tares of discord in the democratic ranks" Now, therefore, we regret this state ment It is well known that there are many rips" in the democratic party but it is way be- yond the republican party to go around sewing up "tares." The great trouble with the demo- cratic party is that it Trips and tares" around, as it were, and expects the people to patch 'em up with taxes, which come along in the next legis- lative budget and are taxed to the republicans What the democrats actually need is men with brains enough to help run the state on an eco- nomical basis. The people want square deal in the state. It is not so much mans politics the people are signing for as it is men who can save dollars instead of framing up some scheme to "put the cost on the other party and raise it to the limit, because they have the appropriation power in the legislature
 The democrats so far placed on exhibition with their Trips and tares" have shown the pub lie rather too much of their anatomy, with a consequent feeling that it would serve their in terests better if the official took his hat off and allowed his brains to work a little, rather than otherwise

Herbert Hoover says he recently made con- tract with shoe concern to manufacture "good, facturer said he would have to wait while be- fore he could get them as this line had been dis continued, claiming there was no sale for them. Shoot, brother, shoot. The real trouble is that manufacturers won't sell anything cheap-all their goods must be Thigh priced" whether they are worth it or not. The Thigh priced fancy stuff isn't worth as much as the old regular lines and they know it.
The Coconino sun., 1919-11-21

When Mexico charges us S150000 ransom for mere American consul it looks as though it was profiteering. Seven thousand five hundred dollars for a couple of aviators was fair enough. but if they keep on, the United States should rise in it's wrath and force Mexico to take back Texas. Texas, of course, is one of those buffer states" they talk about over in Europe; if it had not been for Texas, you know, everything west of the Mississippi would have been part of So- nora long ago, so it is secretly said.
The Coconino sun., 1919-11-21

It rather does look to an outsider as though President Wilson's telegram of congratulations to Governor-elect Coolidge, republican, of Massa- chusetts, after his election on a strong stand for law and order, might have had more real sin cerity if something of the same sort had been wired him and his friends during the election fight That would have shown some sincere feel ing as to the issues as for and against law and order, regardless of politics. It is always the nice thing to do when you congratulate the fellow you have done all you know how to defeat.
The Coconino sun., 1919-11-21

Each indust rious person should figure out and set aside Il the money he believes he is capable of making for the coming "drives" this year. Whatever else he may happen to make he is at liberty to use for home purposes without being called a "piker." Europe is still in an awful condition and some people over there are still actually wearing clothes of last years cut. All little American boys and little American girls should shiver and save all their cream-puff and candy money so they may give it to those who engineer "drives,' else these drivers may not have anything easy to do.
The Coconino sun., 1919-11-21

The state primary law hasn't flaw in it. The mesh is so fine that not large piece of po- ltica timber in the democratic party can pos. sibly sift through it. The people of Arizona never have asked for efficiency and they have always been satisfied. The small mesh men, tioned does not refer to bulk, merely to eff ciency. What does Arizona want of efficiency think of the glorious climate.

Representatives of the state corporation con- mission held meeting in Flagstaff last Friday to ascertain whether or not the Flagstaff Elec- tric company should be allowed to raise the rates for light and power, And just to show how Flagstaff feels about it, no one was present except the representatives of the light com pany and the corporation commission.

The Sun is well pleased with the steadily increasing list of subscribers, and is willing to match it with anything in this end of the state. The Sun does not attempt to "ape" any othe" paper; but it is intended for readers who live here and love Arizona

It is said on good authority that there are over eight million people in this country who can not speak the English language, and that 55 per cent of them are American born. It is not difficult to guess just what percentage of these people belong to the "reds" and are vocifer ously anxious to overtum the government.

The packers now own string of big hotels in the East. Don't seem to be satisfied with handling the peoples food but want to regulate the price of his sleeps as we'll. All they need now is string of churches to keep them from going to-er, we'll, they are "on their way

Anent the great spruce division" fiasco, it is reported in the testimony that the railroad which cost the government S4,000000 never hauled foot of logs and that road fifteen miles long - sufficient for all purposes - could have been built for S60,O00, and could have supplied logs more quickly.

Of course, advertising isn't worth anything when you can get it for nothing, consequently when papers print government stuff for nothing, they only pay those papers which refuse their dope Good finance, too. Eh, Boy?

Martin Luther King

Martin Luther King was born
December 6, 1889, and departed
this life November 10, 1918 He
was born and reared in Sharp
county, and was a member of
the Methodist church. For three
years his home had been at Mem
phis, Tenn, where he leaves a wife
to mourn her loss. His father and
mother, Mr.. and Mrs. W. G. King,
reside at Stuart.
Luther was called to the service
of his country in April He was
taken to Kentucky, where he was
placed in Lexington training school
for two months, and then he was
sent to France. We received many
cherry letters from him. On the
30th of October he wrote that he
was back from the front lines, and
in camp, sick and tired, but hoped
to be better when he got a rest.
On November 9th he wrote his
wife that he had been admitted TO
the hospital, very seriously ill with
pneumonia. On the nth the doctor
wrote that Luther had died the day
before and would be buried in the
little cemetery near the hospital.
We kissed Luther at the union
station al Memphis and said good
bye, asking God to bring him home
to us, but not so, The Lord hat
need of him, so He plucked the
prettiest flower from our gardel
, and tranSplanted it in His own gar
den of choicest flowers, AM
