Jap Industry Hard Hit.

During the war the japanese zinc
industry was very prosperous and
large profits We're made on ore, which
was imported from Australia and the
French Indies. The signing of the
armistice, however, has dealt a hard
blow to this industry, and it is reported
that it costs 5000 ton to produce jap
anese zinc, while the market price is
only S1S7 ton. 1t is expected that
this will result in a request for sub
sides and import protection, since the
deposits of japanese ore are of such
inferior quality that competition with
imported ore cannot be met success
fully.

POLITICAL ROBBERY

The statement of Congressman Thompson, of Ohio, this week to the effect that the country was paying criminal salaries to men on the staff of the railroad director general amounting to $1,3O8,0O0, ought to arouse the indignation of the people to such pitch that it would force the party in power out of power Here are some of the salaries mentioned:
 Five at $50,000 each two at $40,000; three at $35,000; two at $30,00O; eight at $25,OOC; eleven at $20;O00; one at SIS, 300; one at $18OOO one at $17,5OO; six at $15,000; one at $14,0OO one at $13,200; one at $12,500; four at $12O0O one at $18,OOO; one at $lO,6OO, and twenty-three at $10,000.
 In the first place it should be noted that these are the salaries paid to favorites when the rail roads were under the government direction. It is most shameful exhibit and is almost enough to sti1e ones patriotism In the next place it is only an item of the national extravaganza, which has no more respect for the people than it has for a yellow dog. Still the congressional free booters go along talking about policies and prin- ciples, while the political thieves are scraping the bottom of the treasury for the last cent.
 Let everybody drop his politics until these robbers are cleaned out.

"SEA-SIC" TOWSER

The Democratic state committeeman are all wrought up over the idea of Senator Reed of Missouri, Democrat, coming to Arizona and talk ing against President Wilson's League of Ma tions. Secretary Tom brennan, through the ad- vice and urgent request of our Democratic brethren, has sent out mortified notice to all the unterrifed that the Democrats did not do it.
 It puts the Democratic brethren in a most awful position when Democratic senator will so far forget himself as to tell the story as he it; they are all willing to have the question discussed, providing it is discussed "for."
 When William Henry Randolph Hearst Ash urt first sounded out the call that the good ship May | Knot" was sinking, Rear Admiral Tom brennan boldly came forward and pulled the big whistle for "sick call," and there was unani nous answer on the poop deck of all hands sign ing up for the trip on the "Caulifower." They had seen and they were sck-seasick. If Ash urst votes for the league of amalgamations it will make William Randolph sick; if he doesn't Ashurst will be seasick. See? Sic Towser.

SOLDIERS WILL RIGHT WRONGS

There was special significance in the remark of General Pershing when he addressed the joint session of Congress that our returning soldiers twill bring into the life of our country deeper love for our institutions and more intellectual devotion to the duties of citizenship" Their first and principal duty in line with this de- votion to citizenship will be performed next year when they assist by their votes in retiring from office the administration that permitted unneces- sary suffering and death in the expeditionary forces while retaining in power political incom- petents at Washington, charged with the duty of getting adequate supplies to our armies. 2

WHAT ARIZONA NEEDS

The biggest thing that Arizona needs today is leadership of men who are big enough, brainy enough and brave enough to walk out into the middle of the road and stand pat until all the potholes, machine-gun nests and quag- mires are cleaned up. This does not only in- clude one class of I. w. w. who should be cleaned up, but a cleaning of the whole class of those who stand for and encourage political graft against public welfare: A real cleaning along the lines of Old Abe Lincoln is what Arizona needs, with some such sturdy character to point out the way-rugged, stalwart, and as hopeless as it may seem-but MAN men who can stand all the petty bubbles and petty jealousies but withal, men who can and will believe at all times in the welfare of the common people.
 The trouble with the average Arizonan today is that he will vote for many a man that he would not select to go with him hunting out a bunch of bandits and COW thieves.

A WISE OBSERVATION

'It makes me weary" said the office Oracle the other day, "to see how some merchants spend their advertising appropriation in all sorts of futile and funny ways when for few cents per inch their town paper would deliver their mes sage right inside the homes of prospective GUS toners At times I am inclined to believe" he continued "there are some folks in business who would pass up the hometown paper and camor to buy advertising space on the inside of a cof- fin lid"

NO FAITH IN LEAGUE

Despite the organization of the League Of Nations which the Wilson followers are. count ing on to make the world safe for democracy" it was learned through the testimony of Secre- tary Baker and General March before the senate military affairs committee that none of the Eu- ropean countries are placing their armies on pre-war basis. With a request from MT. Baker of an army of 509,000 men, it would seem that even the league supporters have little faith in its heralded ability to prevent further war.
The Coconino sun., 1919-10-10

The Los Angeles Times is so strong for the League of Nations that we fear that it will be rejected entirely instead of being amended, as it should be. The Times has the longest and most successful list of defeats to its credit of any paper in the West. Getting on the right side of question, in their estimation, is always wrong-and they have proved it most of the time. While it is strong for a league of nations it is dametricaly opposed to labor unions.
The Coconino sun., 1919-10-10

One of the big comforts the average Amer- can has heretofore enjoyed, was in having good family political row. The League of Nations idea of carting our factional disputes over the seas and out from under our own direct super vision, incline most to hesitate with desire rather to be "safe than sorry" And what fun would there be in disputing over the Credit Mobiler" with an Italian who was more interest ed in the spaghetti crop?

The Sun boosts Flagstaff because it is in reality "God-given spot"; but lots of times we think the owners are waiting for Him who gave it, to make more improvements before they are satisfied with what was originally given.

If you happen to be eating piece of horse meat and some one yells "Whoan and you choke to death-is it suicide or murder? Of course, it is foolish to say that question like this should go "horse an horse" as it were, without answer.

LOCALS EASY
FOR GOODlNG
CALDWELL MUST BE CONTENT
WITH VALLEY FOOTBALL
CHAMPIONSHIP.

Caldwell high school gridiron artists
must be content with the champion
ship of the Boise and Payette valley
league, succumbing in the last game
of the season which meant the south
ern Idaho honors at Gooding Thanks
giving day by an overwhelming score
of 59-7. During the first half, the
game was close and hard fought, but
in the second half, bolstered by
series of long forward passes which
found the Caldwell team almost help
less against, Gooding began to pile
up score that finally eliminated in
a rout for the local aggregation. The
third quarter was particularly dis
astrous, five touchdowns going to-
Gooding in that session.
Gooding's offense was a dazzling
one, being combined with passes, fake
and trick plays and shifts of every
description. Everything in the victors
repertoire was used, all with seeming
ly equal success. Huddleston, a Good
ing end, regarded as one of the niftiest
men to handle forward passes that
southern Idaho high schools have de-
veloped, was largely responsible for
starting the rout in the ranks of the
local team.
Defeat wass calling to the local
team who had given promise of win
ming every possible honor in this sec
ton. Following the hard game with
Ontario on the Caldwell field week
preceding, morale of the locals ap-
parently went to pieces. Caldwell's
only score came in the early part OF
the game shortly after Gooding had
crossed the local goal line and came
following a successful forward pass
play developed at the College of Idaho
by Anse Cornell.
On the whole, the season was a
most successful one, Weiser, Namps
and Boise falling easy prey to the
prowess of Coach French's eleven
But on comparative score basis with
other teams of southern Idaho, Cald
we'll does not look particularly form
liable. Gooding won hands down b,
an overwhelming score. That team
lost to Buhl in an early season game
800 and the latter was in turn wal
oped last week by Blackfoot, $40
An aggregate of those scores woul'
indicate that Blackfoot is capable O
beating the locals by more than 10
points.

CITY HAS Water
SUPPLY CUT OFF
DROUTH HITS CALDWELL SUN
DAY WHEN CHANGE IS
MADE.

Caldwell was without city water for
several hours fast Sunday morning
as a elimination of several minor
difficulties which have occurred to the
supply of power. Motto of the fact
that the power was to be shut off and
accordingly that the water would not
be available Sunday morning was not
made to the city water department I'M
til Saturday evening when it was too
late to notify more than small per,
centage of the Caldwell residents.
Plates were made for the picture
shows but no other effort was made
to notify users,
Shutting off the power was due to
the Idaho Power company making
some changes in cutting in to addi-
tional sources OF power for Caldwell
which necessitated cutting it off for
several hours. Because of improve
ments that are being made near the
city water tank, it has been the prac-
tice for several weeks to pump water
directly into the mains, using electric
power to accomplish it. When the
power was turned off no means was
available to keep water supplied to
the city mains.
Faulty connecting equipment which
made it necessary to order duplicates
accounts for the slowness which the
city is showing repairing the usual
source of supply. An important con-
Meeting link in the new lines was
found to leak generously when it was
installed and duplicate had to be
ordered. Some delay has been exper-
fenced in obtaining delivery of the
piece of pipe.
Residents on Canyon Hill, usually
supplied from city sources, have been
without water since the new work has
been progressing. They have been
hauling their supply. Fortunately nc
fires occurred Sunday morning. With.
out drop Of water, the fire depart
ment would have been practically help
less Because of the power adjust
ment. the city has been more atnpl,
supplied with electric current than fol
some time.
