AS TO ADVERTISING

Business men and others who do
not believe in advertising should con-
ssider for a moment what vast fortunes
have been acquired by the judicious
and persistent advertising of grape
nuts, Quaker oast, rolled oats, Uneda
biscuit, oat meal, cream of wheat, pork
and beans (minus the pork, the
devils ham, etc. Now they are going
to begin advertising rice as a food
throughout the United States. That
will start he people to eating it. Rice
has never been advertised as these
other foods have and it is no wonder
that it's value as food is not general
ly recognized. Without advertising
Wannamaker, Sears, Roebuck & Co.,
Montgomery Ward and many other
big catalogue houses would never have
been heard Of Systematic advertising
will benefit any legitimate business
ever undertaken.-Santa Cruz Pata-
gonian.

RECORD MANAGEMENT

There is estimated to be 1000 ,00O,-
600 pounds of copper above ground in
this country today, 6OO,O0o,00O of
which is refined and ready for sale.
At Is cents copper is selling at /
to cents below todays average cost
of production. The general average
for the whole country, according to
government figures, was rs cents a
pound in 1919. Since that time coal
and freight rates have advanced and
the unit cost has been given another
boost through further curtailment of
production.
Few industries could have stood the
strain of low prices under which min
ing has operated for the past two
years.
Saving of profits during the good
years and exceptionally management
is all that has kept the mines from
closing and throwing thousands of
men out of work.
Repeal of the excess profits tax and
falling commodity prices will even
tually help the mining industry al
though it is probable that gold min
ing will need further assistance such
as proposed In the McFadden bill un-
less We wash gold production to fail

CONFIDENT OF PARTY FUTURE

Homer S. Cummings former chair
man of the Democratic national COM
mittee, in Tucson, yesterday received
from the New York Tribune, Repub-
lican paper, telegram asking for his
opinion as to what should be done to
reorganize the Democratic party in
the United States.
In answer Mr.. Cummings sent the
following message:
New York Tribune, New York City
"a reorganization of the Democratic
party as suggested in your telegram,
is not necessary as you apparently
assume.
'The process Of rehabilitation will
go forward beginning March fourth at
which time the disintegration of the
Republican party will commence.
"The recent election, the result of
which was easily foreseen by the COM
petent observers, can exercise only a
passing effect upon political history
1t was temporary backstep. Politi-
cal atavism is not an unusual pheno-
menon but it cannot dominate Ameri-
can affairs indefinitely.
"The attempt to substitute a robust
nationalism' for the so-called inter
nationalsm' of the present admins
tratiOn will lead to all sorts of absur-
dities, difficulties and anachronisms,
and we shall miss something from the
spiritual life of our country, which
materialism can never supply Racial
animosities and old world prejudices
will have been sufficiently glutted and
the people, after brief test of reac-
tion and policy of enlightened self
ishness, will turn to more generous
attitude toward human rights and in
ternational obligations.
'The recent election was not the
end, it was the beginning of cam
paign.
"In my judgment the Republican
party is in much more immediate dan
ger than is the Democratic party.

boy in your house, and things I was
too stupid to say.
1t is only now, after passing through
the long, hard school of years; only
now when my own hair is gray, that
understand how you felt.
I must have been a bitter trial to
you. I believed my own petty wis
dom, and l know how ridiculous it
was, compared to that calm, ripe,
wholesome wisdom of yours.
Most of all, I want to confess my
worst sin against you. 1t was the
feeling that l had that you did not
understand"
When look back over it now, l
know that you did understand. (You
understood me better than I did my
self. Your wisdom flowed around
mine like the ocean around an island.
And how patient you were with me!
How full Of long suffering and kind
ness!
And how pathetic, it now comes
home to me, were your efforts to get
close to me, to win my confidence, to
be my pail

was it that held me aloof? l didn't

l wish you were here now, across
the table from me, jlst for an hour,
so that T could tell you how there's
no wall any more; / understand you
now, dad, and God, how love you,
and wish I could go back and be your
boy again.

happy every day. I know how you
felt.
1t took a good many years for this
prodigal son-and all sons are in a
measure prodigal-to come to himself.
I've come: I see it all now.
I know what rich and priceless
thing, and one least understood, is
that mighty love and tenderness and
craving to held which a father feels
toward his boy. For I have boy of
my own.
And it is he that makes me want to
go back to you, get down on my knees
to you and ask you to hear me, dad,
and believe me.

GOVERNOR Is REALLY
 TOO BUSY ID SLEEP

Napoleon had nothing on Gov. Thomas F. Campbell when it comes to sleep. The governor is getting less than the four hours Napoleon devoted to sleep. and furthermore he is lead ing just about as strenuous a life as the famous French soldier emperor.
 When the governors campaign was outlined it included several small towns a day where it was understood the chief executive would say a few words. But the people will not stand for that sort of thing and are demand ing speeches wherever the governor appears. He has made long talks everywhere, held conferences, attended to affairs of state and all the time has been travelling at all hours of the day and night.
 He arrived in Phoenix after two o'clock yesterday morning and shortly after 8 o'clock was at his desk at the state house. He attended to a vast amount of business during the day in addition to seeing numerous callers.
 The governor will remain in Phoenix today. devoting the early, week to Yuma county. going from thefe to Graham, Greenlee and Cochise counties. He will give the last four days of his campaign to Phoenix.
 The governor stated yesterday that he would not have the. time nor the opportunity to again go north. Ac- cording to all reports he was given ar enthusiastic reception everywhere ir that section, particularly in his old home county, Yavapai.
