POLITICS AND PEOPLE

There are great many people who believe that politics are beneath their dignity. There are others who have the idea that by politics" one means dirty tactics used by some woud-be politicians in buying votes, corruptng voters, stealing ballot boxes and buying up judges and some few hundred other things equally as dis reputable. This same element of thieves liars and corruptionists are found in every business of life, more or less, but they do not constitute politics" Every good citizen should be inter- ested in the politics of his town, county, state and nation--it is the business of the people han dled by persons designated to transact this busi- ness for them. It has often been said that "poli- tics are no better than the people," This is only half true, for many people will say, "Oh, it's all politics." and q have no interest in politics." For that reason the fellow who is out for political profit usually runs things to suit himself and these good people stand back after election and vail and gnash their teeth about the way the business of the city, county or nation is being run and how they are being robbed, cheated, and defrauded of their rights.
 Politics are what you make them, MT. Voter, also Mrs. Voter and Miss Voter; if you do not take any interest in the affairs of your city, county, state or nation, what right have you to complain when things do not go right? You are one of the stockholders and if you fail to vote at the stockholders meeting, whose fault is it that you are not treated as you wish to be?

AMERICA FIRST

Who really is Mistress of the Seas? America first crossed the Atlantic in a steamship; first "hopped' it in seaplane; invented the subma- rine, the ironclad and the torpedo; developed the old sailing ship, both as commercial and naval instrument, to it's highest efficiency, and never was defeated on the seas, has held the cup for superiority in yachting since Queen Victoria as girl saw the America" take it; has the longest domestic coast line of any great power-long enough to reach from Archange to the Darda- nelles-has the greatest lake and coastwise mer- chant marine in the world, with the best paid and housed sailors under any flag. By the test of daring, genius and situation the United States of America is and of right ought to be the first maritime power of the world.

With all due regard for the splendid ethical education of the editors of the Tucson Citizen and Jounal-Miner of Prescott, as to mistaken loyalty" we desire to point out that neither of these papers will publish press agent dope free own home town. It would be very "ethical" to accept PAID advertising. If you put anything over FREE on either of these papers against their own home towns, we will sling in with you.

The beautiful little city of Flagstaff never got off with better running start than it did this spring. The people believe in making good their promises to have things doing when the boys came back home so that there would be job for every one. There is the $1OO,OOO sewer sys- tenn going in-slowly, but going in; the proposi- paving is going to help with our prosperity and make Flagstaff the cleanest and prettiest city in Arizona. Improvements are being made every where with many new buildings in prospect in all parts of the city. There is feeling of op- timism among all classes, and there is every req son for that feeling. The prosperous are not waiting for lower prices and making hay while the sun shines. There is more of a disposition to spend the money made in Flagstaff in Flag staff and it is the wise idea for investments here grow faster than all the outside "get-rich-quick" schemes that have yet been devised to separate money from the folks of the old home town"

The state dental board, in order to continue their old-time trust are requiring each applicant for examination to subscribe to an oath that they will not advertise or associate themselves with any dentist who does advertise, under a penalty of revocation of their license. It's wonder the board does not prescribe price list and swear lem to that, too Accidents will happen, and we hope one will happen when the new board is ap- pointed.

A brief study of the text of the proposed League of Nations tends to convince one that in- stead of keeping us out of war; it would be a dead cinch that we would be in war up to our necks if a war happened to jump up anywhere on the globe; there would be no way of our keeping out of it, having agreed to take pot-luck with all the tangng nations of Europe. If there are any more wars it is ten to one they will be started in Europe.

The Democratic party's idea of democracy is exemplified in Mississippi. From that state 25,OOO black and 19OO0 white men were con scripted to save the world for democracy. Not one of these black men, under the laws and prac- tices instituted by Democrats, has the slightest thing to do with electing even one of the con- gressmen authorized to conscript him for mill tary service to defend democracy

E. O'Brien Mann, of Cochise county, who hae

E. O'Brien Mann, of Cochise county, who had charge of the referendum petitions on the land lease law, is pondering on the peculiarities of politics and wondering just how it happened that an automobile hit him and scattered his papers all over the street just as he was going to file them with the secretary of state. When he gathered himself up he found that he was some four hundred names short of the number re- quired to make the referendum stick, conse quently all his work went for naught. Back in Chicago it was considered good ethics in poli- tics to wait until after dark to 'strong-arm" some persistent pessimist but, owing to the day light saving law out here, all you have to do is to belong" and all is we'll

Attorney General A. Mitchell Palmer who seems to conduct his office mostly from the po- litical stump, complained in speech before the Democratic National Committee that 1t used to be said the Republican party was the war party. Certainly Wasn't the Democratic national cam paign of 1916 run on the theory that the Re publicans were the war party, while the Demo- crats, thank God, kept us out of war?

It won't hurt to spend a few millions on the boys who did the work making it possible for the contractors and many other profiteers to get rich during the war; Billions were squan- dered during the war by the government and we can see no good reason why the soldiers and sail ors should not be given some reasonable compen- sation for their heroic work

THANK YOU KINDLY, CHAP, BUT

If the Republicans of this state want live candidate for United States senator they ought to take the measure of Fred Breen, of The Co conino Sun. Breen's descriptive powers of the beauties of the San Francisco peaks may be linn ited, but none can excel his hard common sense on the real needs of Arizona, or put more zeal and activity in his work. The Republican party in the state needs some new blood if it ever ex- poets to win in the election next year."-Wins- low Mail

TIME TO DUST THE OLD GANG

"A prominent Democrat in the state councils recently remarked to the editor that what Ari- zona needed most was general cleaning out of the old Democratic gang of professional office holders, who have been connected with state cap- ital since statehood. To this declaration every body in the state but the officeholders themselves can sound hearty amen. '"-Winslow Mail.
 When you stop to consider the matter you will note that about the same old gang have held state offices ever since Arizona became state. There are mighty few new faces at the public crib at Phoenix; when it was expedient they shifted around some or, if not elected to an of flee, the gang took care of the one who accden- tally slipped by appointing him to fat job in the state house, thus providing for him until he could be elected again. It is about time this secret society of political profiteers was done away with in the interest of the people who have been paying dearly for inefhciency.
