BEAN GROWING
IN EARLY TIMES

Theophrastus, writing 500 years
before the Christian era, says that
in Macedonia and Nhessaly, beans
were grown to be 'plowed into the
soil at flowerini time. Varro about
so years B. G. says: "Some things
should be sown with view not so
much to present profit as to next
years crops, because when cut down
and left they improve the soil. Thus
lupins before they produce many
pods, and sometimes beanstalks, If
the poddlng stage be not so far ad-
vanced that it is profitable to pull
the beans, are usually plowed into
the land" In Flanders, which has
always been a model to the rest of
Europe in husbandry this method
has always been a great feature.
This we learn from the lecture read
by DR.. E. J. Russell, M. A. F. R.
S G B E., at the Royal Horticul-
tural society - who recommends
these methods and regards it as one
of the most efficient ways of max
ing soil. Such is our obligation to
Theophrastus.

Let The Responsibility Be Individual

It may will enough republican senators with the irreconcables both sides of the senate to prevent the ratification of peace treaty after the compromise has been effected by the reasonable members parties Let that happen if need be, but the prospect halt the steps toward compromise. The republican party cannot be held responsible for what minority of its representatives in the senate may will be held responsible failure to do all the majority of it's members do toward a req sonable compromise.
 The country is not asking for surrender of the reservations which majority of the members of the senate agreed to. On the contrary we be- Heve that the sentiment country is be- tion of the treaty with them intact But what the country wants is final disposition of the matter and if necessary to bring that about, wants con sessions made that will still preserve all that was sought to be preserved by the reservations and at the time will allow administration to save it's face.
 There has been too much talk of no compromise coming from the majority in senate as we'll as from the White House. We think that the party which shall first earnestly show it's desire to reach a settlement will have approval of the country. And on the of a presidential campaign the approval Of the country is something worth having.
 With respect to the peace treaty, the republican party stands in strong position before the country By its reservations it has issue of Amer icanism against internationalism and it has re- ceived the endorsement the people wherever they have since had opportunity give expression to their sentiments. At the time, there is feeiing that certain concessions may made without any sacrifice of Americanism

guish so false belief siIences for a while the voice of irnmutable harmony but false belief cannot destroy Science armed with faith, hope, and fruition. So. also, on page 51, her declaration is: Jesus could give his temporal life into his enemies hands; but when his earth mission was accomplished, his spiritual life, indestructible and eter nal, was found forever the same. He knew that matter had no life and that req: Life is God; therefore he could no more be separated frim his spiritual Life than God could be extinguished." This same truth which. Jesus knew so fully awaits every man, and he has but to turn from the material senses, re- aliZe that he is conscious independ- ently of them, and that therefore con- seriousness exists, in order to perceive that divine Mind, ork Principle, can net be extinguished.
 Now this same divine Principle. or God, being the cause of mans cer- tainty that he living. and living apart from mortal sensation, is the gover- nor of man and is his master. Then, in the same way that it is impossible to say there is no God, so is it be- yond anyone's power to deny that there is tho omnipotent master of all crea ton. But this divine All-power brings forth for its image and likeness, the only man God knows, unabating good Man can receive from perfect Spirit only that which partakes of the na : ture of Spirit, containing no element of evil. Hence, he can experience only loving kndess, and can be only health fully active for Principle. There is not a trace of evil, of tyranny, or of re- venge in this masters government of man. who is the eternal reflection of everlasting Mind.
 Without doubt there seems to be an abundance of examples of men who have set themselves up, or have been established, as masters of other man. undertaking to govern in the place of God, requiring obedience on pain of extreme punishment, and thus being enabled through fear to work havoc with mems lives, property. and. worst of all, with their understanding of God. But no man can truly serve an other man, for the sole servant there is, is he who serves Principle. Prin- ciple is really all that affords man opportunity to worship, and this con stant reverencing of the divine Mind by His creation constitutes unadul- terated religion. The false religion. which is probably the basis for the an that which is evolved by the mate rial senses. but this material con seriousness is the fraudulent conscious ness which claims to enable a man to know and perceive through the bodily organs. And when one comes to see that he has understanding apart from these five senses, and can go right on thinking though he lose them aSl. he learns that in truth he is living spir- itually and not materially. Then he is coming nearer to God.

their duty to the population of thelr state. At all costs they must protect their constituents from the clutches ol the terrible socialists.
 The wishes of the voters Who elected the five members, recently ruled out, have no bearing on the mat ter. Certainly not. Oh. yes, these voters are all of age, all in their rlgnt minds, and fully qualified to cast votes. They ought to know whom they want as their representatives They have natural and perfectly lawful po- litical opinions. It has yet to be proven that they are less capable of judging for themselves than the supporters ol the republican or the democratic as semblymen. And yet the men whom these qualified voters chose to protect their interests are refused thelr seats by men who are evidently ciitivatlnS in their hearts that most poisonous weed-Intoierance.
 The fact that our consttutloH--tna noble instrument drawn up by noble men-does not anywhere sanction an act so autocratic, so arrogant so uh- charitable, means absolutely nothiiS to these worthy legislators.
 This is not the first time that so- cialists have been elected to tne New York assembly. They have never Tn inc mast been known to attempt the passing of any destructive measures There is IF, reason to fear that Such will be the case in the future. IheE have never been charged with treach- cry or violence to the government. They were elected by popular vote ana according to the laws of our country The only conceivable charge against them seems to be that they are so- ciaIist members and that the non socialist members have acquired d more than usually great distaste TOT said party. The only visible reason for this increased distaste is the lacl that the socialists are steadily grow ing in number and are likely to get more members elected than the non orable republicans and democrats would like to see in the assenpiy. Which is about as reasonable as pro hibiting a certain brand or oVefais because il is getting more popular than it's competitors. If the people like it better, why not?
 one thing is certain. If the soclal- ists are not allowed 10 participate law fully in the legislation of this country they are bound to seek other means of mixing in.r Upon the heads or the New York assembly be it.
 Yours for the patriotism of Wash- ington. the charity of Lincoln, ana fair and square deal for all.

All the scores were ex- ceptionally low. There has been some talk of a matched play with Collis and Montressor of San Marcos playing against.

ONLY ONE LANGUAGE, ENGLISH

Phoenix Arz.. Jan. A, 1920. Editor Arizona Republican.
 Phoenix Arizona.
 Dear Sir: Since I have been in the thriving city of Phoenix, I have been impressed with it's natural advantages, both as a business center and place of residence, but 1 have one obJec- ton to make to conditions, and that concerns the condition and habits or the Mexican population. These people should be taught to speak the Enshsh language. and should teach their chil- dren to use the English instead of tEe Spanish language. I have had some business transactions with these people since I have been here, and have noticed that their children, of five to ten years of age, know noth- ing of the English language. These school recesses, use the Spanish lan- guage.
 The legislature should pass a law in regard to this serious matter, for bidding the use of Spanish by Mexican children while on the school play grounds. and should allow them to speak the English language only, in ferent matter with the parents who were born in Mexico. They are adults, and very many of them are illiterate, and it would be difficult for them to learn our language, but their children, who were born here, and who have the privileges of our public schools, should be required to learn the Eng fish language.
 The Mexicans and other foreigners come here to earn money and en- joy our free institutions, and they ought to fit themselves for the duties of American citizens. If they live in separate communities and speak their own language, they become a positive danger to our country. They make it possible for the enemies of America to approach them and turn them against our country and it's laws. We ought to compel all foreigners to learn our language, for only by so doing will they be able to learn American ways and think American thoughts, and be- come true American citizens. I have no prejudice against these people, but I believe they should be taught and

HOW TO MAKE GOOD
 DO YOU NEED SUPERIOR BRAINS? "NO," SAYS JAMES B. DUKE The Worlds Tobacco King As Reported by B. c. Forbes, Editor Forbes Magazine

America has many merchant princes and captains of industry, but only three industrial kings: John D. Rocke- felIer, the oil king; the late Andrew Carnegie, the steel king, and James B. Duke. the tobacco king.
 Each of the three had the same rough road to travel. the same ob- stacles to cleeye, and clear. Each used the same methods and the same tools intense application, ceaseless watch fitness for opportunity, unWaNerinE courage and self-confidence. readiness to assume responsibility. rigid frugal itv during early years, with. above all. infinite love of work and achievement
 At 14-note the age-James B. Duke. after having experienced life III n log cabin and almost inhuman pow ertv. won the position of manager oi the family's small tobacco factory inc factory which formed the nucleus of the greatest tobacco enterprise the world has ever known. an enterprise dominant not only in America, but m virtually every country under the sun
 youne Duke deliberately set out to do in tobacco what John ID. Rocke feIler was doing in oil. And he sue ceeded in becoming the most powerful tobacco figure in history
 The reason? Here 1t is, Tn MT. Dukes own modest words
 T have succeeded in business not bacause I have more natural ability than many people who have not sue caadad but because I have applied myself harder and stuck to it longer I know plenty of people who have failed to succeed in anything who have more brains than l had, but they lacked application and determinatlon;
