REX TODAY

"The Spite Bride" a Selznick pic
ture starring Olive Thomas, comes to
the Rex today. It's simply a knock
out-the best thing that the screen
has seen in many moons. 1t has snap,
dash and zest; a human picture OF
human people presented in a human
way. And Olive Thomas was never
better in her life. She is the essence
Of youth-youth at its finest-with
its simplicity, grace, charm and visit
fitness
1.-THE Spite Bride" is a drama OF
youthful impulse with just enough
thrills to make you a little bit
creepy-not enough to make your
spine run cold-with enough sus-
pense to keep you interested from
start to finish-with enough laughs
to give that. nice. warm feeling in
side and a few tears which give you
a pleasant, happy feeling afterward.

BAPTIST SERVICES CONTINUE
TO GROW IN INTEREST

In spite of the bad weather q full
house was the order at the First Bap-
list church last night. Mr.. Meyer
preached on THE objectionable
Sim. He made it plain that this sin
is not what any have said it is, but
just whit God says it is, that is,
disappearing the Holy Spirit. He put
emphasis on Mark $3.50, which says
because they said. He hath an un-
clean spirit this saying of theirs
brought the warning from Jesus, "He
that shall blaspheme the Hold Spirit
hath never forgiveness" This was
not sin of ignorance but deliber-
ate sin against light. :.
Mr.. Meyer will preach tonight at
eight o'clock on Cain.

WILSON NOT "NON-PARTISAN"

It may be said with credit to the present ad- ministration it was not "non-partisan."
 It was democratic war belonging to Wilson only-he and they won it. No republican was asked to do more than spend his money and en- list as buck private. The "solid south" SUD- ported Wilson and "the solid south" received all the solids the administration had to give
 The "solid south" run the government with out the aid and consent" of the rest of the Unit ed States. The solid contracts all went to the solid people who were solid with Wilson Cox is now solid with Wilson and solid with the south and only needs the Banum's friends who are born every minute in the scattering north to car ry on the great financial development of the solid south In years to come the "solid south" will re- adjust itself and become part of the Union At present they are loaning themselves as the "solid peoned south" to men they wouldn't otherwise associate with, just because they cant get over the idea that Lee surrendered to Grant. While you may not blame the old vet in gray so much, there is reason to call attention to the fact that the world has progressed; yes, even the United States have progressed during thelast fifty years, and the younger generations must have gathered some information during that time

WARREN G. HARDING, THE MAN

Most of us already know all about Warren C.. Harding, the republican candidate for the presi- dency of the United States. There is always human interest side to political situation which few writers have the art of depicting, and that is the side of the republican candidates life that appeals to the public, particularly at the present time.
 Joe Mitchell Chapple, editor of the National Magazine, who has delivered addresses before different organizations in Burlington has the fac ulty of getting at the human interest side of ev- cry subject he touches That was demonstrated by his vivid pictures of his experiences in Eur opean war zone on his last appearance in Burl- ington. He has written volume dealing with "Warren c. Harding, The Man." It has neces- sarily been written since Senator Harding be- came the republican candidate, but it is we'll writ ten, and graphic and fascinating in every detail, as is every subject Chapple touches with his facile pen:
 found myself in Dr. Harding's office On the open door was printed pasteboard sign reading Dr. Harding's Office Open-hearteda and frank, there is wholesomeness that made the visit with the father of Warren c. Harding one long to be re- membered. Across the hall is his son Warren's editorial den, and together father and son have been real comrades, although following different professions. In the editors office the doctor proudly pointed to picture of James G. Blaine"
 That brief description gives us world of in- formation about the beautiful home and work life of Senator Harding. The Blaine picture, treasured to this day. tells us whole volume about the stalwart character of Harding's repub- licanism. That is touch of human interest that almost anybody but trained newspaper man would have missed. It is triaes like this that en- able the real journalist to read human character as the Indian read the signs of the forest, and the shores of the lakes and streams. Joe Mitch ell Chapple's book is we'll worth while.-Burling- ton (Vt.) Daily Free Press.

FRIENDLY TO STRIKERS

While 75,000 American boys were dying be- fore German guns or in the war camps of Europe and something under 4,000, 900 in khaki or blue were making ready to defend the nations cause at the same price, if need be, there were several thousand men who had conscience objection to joining them. There were also sympathizers with the enemy, some of them disguised as So- cialists and there were l. w. W.s, always ready to stab the republic in the back
 A considerable concourse of these individuals were gathered under guard at the federal prison at Fort Leavenworth, and it now made public by an official investigation that they threatened the prison authorities with revolt
 In consequence, Secretary Baker, to keep them at peace, granted them species of self government which has been sarcastically, but not altogether inaccurately called soviet.
 We trust the full report of this remarkable in- stance of the administrators notorious complai- sance will be given publicity. There are plenty more, including the frequent release of these of- lenders, and it is important, we think, that the American people know exactly what this disposi- tion tomes to.
 We think that at moment when the best blood of America was being shed and when all the people were called upon by the president to make heavy sacrifices, that official complaisance shown to shirkers and to traitors was morally crime against the republic, and ought to be ex- posed for public condemnation.
 The memory of our dead cries out upon it, Chicago Tribune.

Flagstaff would make much more rapid growth if "trade at home" campaign was started and kept up by all who live here There is enough business sent away from here to sup port a good sized town. If all the money that was made was spent here the city would grow by leaps and bounds. The Sun force and families number some fifteen people, If the Sun was awarded it's share of the printing business sent away, it could easily make the number thirty. all to the interest of Flagstaff and it's business men. There are other concerns that could make proportionate increase if the trade at home" campaign was put into real effect here There is very little need of much money being spent outside of Flagstaff for the ordinary things, either because of price or quality.

It is inconceivable how any human being can be as bloodthirsty as the fiend or fiends who deliberately carried out the plan of bombing Wall street in the middle of the day, killing in- nocent men, women and children None but an utterly idiotic mind could carry out such plan The destruction of property can easily be rem idied, but the murder of innocent beings can not be and the punishment by death of such mis- creants is all too inadequate to fit the henious- ness of the crime

One of the amusing statements made by the big five meat packers in their statement show ing how little they have made during the past year, is none of the five packers received as much as cent and half profit on each dollar of sales made" They put it that way so the average reader will not think of their having turned the same dollar over ten times day, or whatever times they may have turned it over during the year; they might make 1000 per cent per annum on the same dollar, yet make only one and half cents on each dollar sale made With all their finely figured propaganda, they can not convince the people they are anywhere near on the road to the poor house.

The book of amendments ana proposed laws together with arguments pro and con, mostly con, which the law requires the secretary of state to send out to each individual voter over the state, so they may promptly throw it into the waste basket and forget all about it, has been received. More commissions are proposed and a lot of other laws which are not really worth the while studying up are to be found in the book. few more commissions and Arizona would do well to adopt the commission form of government for the state. Possibly, if we get enough commissions" they may eventually get jealous of each other and eat each other up politically, of course The best possible advice to the voter is to vote "NO" on all of the propo- sitions unless you know just what you want; leaving them blank is half a vote for them
 Nine out of ten of such laws only mean that much more expense to the state. What we need most of all is commission provided with the power to kill off about two-thirds of the laws we now are laboring with and trying to find out what they mean.

The fact that girl stenographers and employees of the internal revenue service are being Ire quested' by one of the collectors to donate $40 each to the Cox campaign fund.- does not seem to worry Cox or his managers or make them hold up their hands in horror. It is evident that Cox hopes to attract all attention to the republican fund while his fellows are secretly gathering up their quotas

Flagstaff has every right to be proud of the improvements made on streets during the past couple of years. It is expensive to straighten out some of the hills and ravines, but if the good work keeps up there is hope that Flagstaff will eventually stretch into fine looking place in which to live.

The internal revenue office in Chicago discov- cred the other day they had 2,225, 900 in vaults unaccounted for. Small change like few mill ion dollars one way or the other with this ad- ministration makes little difference so long as it is in the hands of the party.

Iportant that the new voters shall affiliate with onc Of another Of the
two great parties, than TO which party each shall adopt. HhD ar
gnment Is that only by afhhahng with one Of the great parties can
the women OF the nation have their full share and achieve their great.
est usefulness in participation in national affairs. .
Al a recent meeting of Albuquerque business women some senti.
ment was expressed for the formation Of a woman party, not imme-
Idiately but as a development to be expected from the participation
OF women IN politics. IL seems to us that any such development
would be the most unfortunate thing that could occur for women and
Tor the country. Certainly IL would defeat the very purpose for
which advocates OF equal suffrage have struggled so long.
The two-party system, as Senator Harding points out, has lasted
longer in the United Stetes than any other political system now ex-
istent under any constitutional government All efforts to over
turn 1t have failed. The so-caned independent movements, one after
another, have come to nothing and the result has been to strengthen
the faith OF the nation in the two party system.
IL dnhcut to see wherein the national, governmental, political
interests OF women can be in any way different from those OF men
save as these interests among women actively at work in politics and
government and politics heretofore observed by men. Z
The benefits Of equal suffrage can only be realized fully IL the
women OF the nation use the suffrage in a practical, effective way, by
associatmg themselves with one or another of the two great parties.

Senator Harding, clearly, is not one of those who fears the active,

THE COUNTY ELECTION

IT VIE call for a meeting of The republican county committee q N
II Monday next brings forcefully before us the fact that we have
some right important business to attend 10 here at home in
nechon with the November election. We must provide n copntv M.
eminent for the next two years, and il should be a good onc The
people, as we find public sentiment, are much more keenly interested
IN N character and qualifications of the men who become candidates
Tons Therefore, picking candidate. in the county election is an ex.
'tremely important job. y
Considerable fuss has been made about the fusion movement
with the democrats, undertaken by Frank A. Hubbel and his asso-
ciate' Dr. Lewis. Hubbel and Lewis have been hailed with loud ac-
claim by Colonel Bronson NJ. Cutting and his Santa Fe New Mexican
as acquisitions to the colonels personal fight on Judge Mechem: In.
deed, the companions seem to he the only specific acquisition TO Cut
ting 3 cause that he has been able to name. The comic interlude of
the bolt IN mass formation by Colonel Cutting, Mr.. Hubbell and Dr.
Lewis has amused the voters briefly. 1t will have as little effect in
Bernalilo county as will Colonel Cutting s violent rage upon the re-.
suit OF the election in Santa Fe county.
A very careful inquiry into the state Of public sentiment in Al
Duquerque and bernallo county, convinces us that this county is
gong to return a very substantially increased republican majority
here is perfectly clear. There is, moreover, very little doubt that
Judge Mechem will receive more than the normal republican major.
Iry. The people are for Harding, and Mechemis nomination locally
is one OF the most universally popular that has ever been made for a
state office. The people know Judge Mechen, like him personally
and trust him implicitly as a public officer. They have gained that
confidence in him from the character of his service in that most i'm
portant OF all posts, a district judge. His campaign in this county is
already made.
With the county ticket the situation is different. There il, a
general disposition among the people to examine candidates for
county Office critically, without regard to whether they are democrats
or republicans, and solely with a view TO getting men who will do the
work OF running the county government in o workmanlke manner.
bernahho county republicans, as we see the situation, need not be
greatly concerned about any fusion movements with the democrats
Ihere are circumstances under which such a movement might even
be viewed with satisfaction. What they do need TO be greatly con.
cerned about is the choice Of their candidates for county office. III
tnese measure up to the standard the very independent voters here.
abouts are demanding, then the republican county ticket will 90 right
along with the victory for the state and national tickets IL the local
ticket does not measure up it will be in danger in its weak spots
Inc answer OF course, is that there should he no weak spots.
