Turn In the Tide

It should have informed us that for the first time since the government began trying to age the railroads, deficit avoided and that the gain for July is small matter in comparison with the for the months of the of nearly s9l00oo9oo The previous net loss under government arrangement had reached almost billion.

THE ARIZONA REPUBLICAN, THURSDAY MORNING SEPTEMBER

sinister but quite the contrary in the torch in the hand of the upraised arm of the Statue of Liberty
 But the torch in the hands of mobs and pilagers is different thing Considering the composition of such an organization as the left wing of the na- tonal socialist party the endorser of communism, the approver of the soviet and the worshipper of bol- shevism we suppose it well enough to leave the torch off the emblem. It could have had only one meaning the outsider.
 Yet the meeting at Chicago not as violent as it might have been supposed to be. It did not be- lieve that the time quite ripe for revolution There are people in Phoenix who believe it is over ripe-rotten-ripe At any rate that is an impression one gains from their impassioned speeches.
 But the socialists of Chicago, Germer, Berger and Algernon Lee have had personal experience with revolutions and know that they may be plucked too green and like other green fruit have disastrous effect upon the internal economy A peach may look red and mellow though it turns out to be hard and unresponsive efforts of the digestive apparatus

The Hard-Boiled Military

A local recruiting sergeant refused to consider a crook held in the city jail as candidate for the army The same brilliants who tried to get into the service are probably numbered among those who howl the loudest against Hardboiled Smiths tactics. Any time you catch a recruiting ser geant asleep, let us know, will you?
 Incidentally, we recall a similar in cident in an eastern city when a mis- guided judge and some ranatfc women tried to keep young crook out of jail by taking him over to the navy recruiting office. The lieutenant in charge blew up with indignation. He took the matter to the newspapers and you can believe us. neighbors, when we tell you that he made the simple judge and his women look like three cents worth of dog meat

"Mr.D eurIeson Now

Before the return of Mir. Wilson from Paris many democratic newspapers were demanding the resgna ton of Burleson. He injurng the party; he was impsriling enjoyed by the faithful and no man could commit greater sin than that. The more fragrant of the acts of Burleson had been com nitted while the president out of the country. Burleson, they assumed, acted without the pres dents consent knowledge
 It was reported about Washington that Burleson would walk the plank that the president had at last recognized the Burleson peril and that of the first things president would do would be to shand" Burleson his resignation MT. Burleson was interviewed regarding these rumors but he seemed to attach no weight to them.
 About that time The Republican gave it it's opinion that Burleson would not resign unless he chose to do so; he would not be asked to resign There was force more potent than all organized labor; than all the public sentiment that had been outraged by Burleson holding him in place. That force was Col E. M. House If Colonel House could be made to think Burleson should go he would go Otherwise he would remain.
 The return of the president not signalized by the firing of Burleson. Thereafter almost imme- diately the democratic newspapers who fiercest against Burleson because he was hurting the demo- cratic party more than anything else in the country suddenly grew quiet
 These same newspapers now announce in tone of respect that Postmaster General Albert Sidney Burleson (note the full title, the hitherto "Burleson" stripped of the honorary title, of .Mr.) would be retained.
 It is explained that in their excess of zeal to get rid of Mir Burleson in order to help the party of the administration newspapers overplayed the game. They attacked MT. Burleson for all sorts of things as to many of which he squarely in line with the White House Thus they made it practically impossible for the president fire the postmaster general without condemning himself.
 Sc it is now said by newspapers whose utterances are usually inspired by the White House that there will be no early change in the office of postmaster general This is taken to mean that there will be no change whatever
 This is embarrassing for those democratic organs that lining up with the anti-Burleson clements in the administration and on the national committee hammered away at MT. Burleson and succeeded in printing large of truth about him. Apologies are now in order. It is being explained that MT, Bureson after all has done little wrong About all he has it is explained is to alienate labor by his hostility it. to make failure of the administration of the telephones and telegraphs help the break down of the overseas mail service a; home inflict almost irreparable damage the civil service and to perform few other similar sees. Having such a distinguished record and being 1ithfuI believer in the chief executive Mir Burleson viii continue to draw his salary.

Diary of an Officeseeker



 Aug. Ii. Well, Diary, Charley Skaggs seems to of woke up to the fact that I meant bus when I told him was out for the Big Office next cleo ton and that if he wants any more favors from me the best thing he can do is to get out and help push my band wagon from one end of this here state to the other I see his home town paper The Desert Blossom has a piece saying it is rumored-get that ''ru- mored,' Diary-that my hats in the ring. Good work, Chas. Skaggsi You know what side your bread is buttered on! Well, let er come, now.
 Aug. 13. I told you, Diary, I'd make 'em sit up and take notice. Jimson, the reporter for the Clarion down state, was in today with the clipping from the Desert Blossom and wants to know if there's anything in this alleged ru- nor that I'm out for the office. Of course, I act like I was all surprised, Diary, and pretended it was news to me and that I hadn't really give much thought of it yet and etc. But told him of course if I was to be pushed into it and they didn't seem to be no way out of it-you know, Diary.
 Aug. 15. There you are, Diary there you arel Just as I always said; let a man just once get into the pub lies eye and he becomes victim of a unscruplous Press. And I always said to keep away from these newspaper reporters. Serves me right. They rc crooked. Here comes the Clairon with piece saying I ain't got no idear of running for office and that there aint nothing in that rumor printed by The Desert Blossom. And it says how natural 1 don't care to run, seeing as how long been holding public offices. i The knockersl D. that guy Jimson l for writing them liesl And it's just 1 like the Clarion, after a mans given l the best part of his life serving the public and he's getting old and gray, i that lying sheet throws him down and 1 knifes him. Sure. down at the tail end of the piece it says: "Mr. Doo- l little intimated however, that he had mot fully made up his mind as yet and might run if sentiment throughout the state seemed to demand this step." But i I ask you, Diary. who in the hell will ] ever read that down at the tail end o1 the piece, eh, Diary? But I'll cage their cuckoo for them. I'll call Hicks of the Echo Courier in tomorrow and have him. put the dope in his paper straight.

out" he thought to himself. NO one in this neighborhood seems to like 'em."
 Just then a sure enough van did draw up to the brown house and they began to move some very beautiful new furniture in the house. Perhaps a nice family with about seven child ren would move in. He ran in to tell Mama about it but she wos nowhere to be found. He ran down the street to investigate. A long grey car with some trunks strapped to it drew up in front of the house. A man and a wo- man got out of the car and ran up the steps hand in hand. Some one that looked very much like Mama came out to meet them. It looked like Aunt Grace. It WAS Aunt Grace Peter tore up the steps behind them.
 Are you goin' to live in this house ?" he demanded.
 ~Yes." said Aunt Grace as she laughed and kissef him. Aren't you glad?"
 T s'pose so, but I DID want some one with lots of kids"

The imaginary family in the pretty brown bungalow was getting Peter in trouble. Even Papa got mad when Peter told him that MT. Uncle Bob. was lots better to little Bob than Papa was to him.
 'fWho in thunder is Mir. Uncle Bob ?' Papa wanted to know.
 Just a man I know" said Peter.
 Some more of that make believe stuff, I suppose. think you're getting too big for that sort of thing"
 But Papa's anger was nothing to be compared to that of Mary Ellen's when she found note that Peter had writ ten to the beautiful golden haired Esmerelda In vain Peter tried to tell her that Esmerelda was just a make believe sweetheart. Mary Ellen went home in tears and refused to speak to him.
 He sat on the front porch thinking about it.

Phoenix, Ariz., Sept. 1sl

Phoenix, Ariz, Sept. 1919. To Ministers and Christian Workers, Phoenix, Arizona
 l would like if the ministers of the gospel in Phoenix would write short gospel message, and then arrange to have these messages printed together in small pamphlet or booklet form, suitable for house to house distribu- tion.
 The Christian people of the different churches would gladly raise enough money to print. say, 5000 copies, or even more if necessary.
 If these words of cheer and comfort can be realized, will make it my busi- ness to deliver them personally from door to door.
 I find the need is great. Hundreds have come here for their health and scores of them are too sick to attend a place of worship.

uIDCMENT REVERSED

They tell good vacation story about Mr Justice Baker.
 It appears that the judge was prowl- ing around the Hopi Indian reservation a few weeks ago. A little runt of an Indian who holds some sort of exhalt ed position as tribal judge heard of the arrival of member of the Supreme Court and hunted him up. The little old Indian, a man of some sixty years, confronted Judge Baker, and through the interpreter an introduction was me- gotiated.
 He says you are not a very big man you a little man." said the interpreter to the Arizona justice.
 Well, by gad! You tell him he hasn't got anything on me-" was the judges quick comebcak as he surveyed the little Indian judge from head to foot.
 That's all right" was the Indians reassuring response as he patted his expanding chest. We both BIG men Big men!"
