1872
one Sunday afternoon in October.
1914, large body of troops fron Fort
Niagara, near Buffalo, encamped to eat
their midday rations on their way to
SaSkettS harbOr They had been paid
the day before, and were joyial and
lively; bur before night the body of
dead soldier was discovered in a clump
OF bushes, not far from the shoulder
ing embcrs Of the camp fire. There
was bullet hole through his head, and
an attempt TO conceal his body indi-
Gated thar he had been murdered.
Word vas promptly sent to the Of
hcer IN command Of the troops. and b.
roll call he discovered that two strag-
GleFS had been left behind when the
troops resumed their march. One of
them was the dead soldier, John Alex
ander from Connecticut. The other
was suspected of the murder. arrested
tried and punished John Alexander
was buried by the side of the road
where he was found, and there the
matter dropped. But the following
year a plant sprang up on the grave.
and the next year two other stalks of
the same plant appeared few feet
from the first one. Little attention
was paid to them At first, but gradual.
ly people noticed that the same un.
known plant sprang up vigorously each
year in the same spot and hourishcd
and blosSomed about the time of the
wheat harvest
Finally, visiting botaniSt recoG-
nized it As false cromwell, plant that
is indigenous TO the soil of Conncctr-
cut; and some one remembered that
| Connecticut was the soldiers home
State How came this Connecticut
plant to grow on that lonely neglect
ed grave beside that New York road &?
people asked. Was there in the sol
dier's pocket letter from loved ones
at home containing the flower of the
plant, which had ripened into seed and
I had taken root?
The mystery has never been solved.
but the flower still blossoms every year
on the spot where the murdered SOL
der was buried one hundred years
ago.

THE OLD, OLD STORY

AS much as we dislike to tell the many old "hard boiled" democratic friends who are now endorsing government checks, that the worst is yet to come, we advise them to point with horror to our old friend Cox's cry of alarm: Wall street and their millions are behind Harding with $15, 5,OO0, 900 slush fund.-" It is the old "hand- writing on the Wall (street) sign" which points to soft place for the defeated candidate to land when the voters cut the string in November. It is the old-time "yowl of money when the can didate knows he is going to be swamped. Like wise it shows conclusively that the candidate making the "yowl" knows he can't buy enough votes to elect him if he had all the administration can dig up to spend on him. It also, and most distinctivey convinces the voter that he the vot- CT, is only considered as political chattel to be bought and sold. It convinces him that he is a mighty "cheap skate" to permit all the billions spent during the late war, also administration, to influence him into voting for money considera- tion. He should know that he has few chances when he votes for men he thinks will try to bring back a sane sort of an administration, where God helps and working men produce re- suits.

WILSON PARDONs KATE o'HARE

It was the notorious Bedlamite, Kate Rich- ards O'Hare, who in a public address, encourag- ing and urgng young men to resist the conscrip- tion act denounced American mothers with sons in the military service as "brood sows."
 Any mother who consented to her son serv- ing in the American army was "a filthy brood sow," declared Mrs. O'Hare, whereupon her ill., smelling audience of anarchists, bolshevists, and soviets, set up wheezy cheer.
 This venomous designation of patriotic Amer ican mothers who had made the greatest sacri- fee, hiding the tears in their hearts by the smiles on their lips, is made peculiarly interesting at this time by the fact that President Wilson. in response to demand by the Socialist convention, has issued pardon to the notorious Mrs. o'Hare.
 This woman was convicted of reasonable acts and utterances, and by the clemency extended in her case President Wilson deliberately slaps Tn the face every Amrican mother who had a son in the war. There is that about this amazing par don which would be unbelievable were it not matter of official record.-Harvey's Weekly.

IN THE ENEMY HANDS"

Before the treaty was submitted to the sen- ate in the manner the constitution provides, they (the republicans) violated every custom and ev- cry consideration of decency by presenting copy of the document, procured unblushngly from en- emy hands, and passed it into the printed record of senatorial proceedings Candidate Cox, in his acceptance speech. Now, why should enemy hands have been entrusted with the document before the American people were informd of its contents? Are the hands of Thomas Lamont, the financial adviser of MT. Wilson at the peace conference, now considered "enemy hands?" And what has MT. Cox to say of MT. Wilson's prom ise of "open covenants of peace openly arrived at," and his promise to the U. s. senate that it would be kept informed of all that transpired in the course of the peace deliberations? Heavens, but Cox is lemon!

Rumor repeats that Editor Rogers, of the Prescott Courier, is going to retire. If it's true we are pleased, not that the famous old war horse of Arizona newspaperdom is going to quit the business, but that he is going to "retire." :" Editors usually get fired, die or just ooze out some way, but seldom attain the distinction of re- tiring Retiring has the sound of a person soushing back onto comfortable couch stuffed with long green with good things to eat scatter ed around promiscuous like. Consequently we hope he "retires" when he quits.

A heart rendng news dispatch from New York says "hoders of heavy stocks of sugar ex- market Dealers declared the market weakness is due to lack of demand for refined sugar."

Wonder what the government thinks of this bunch of profit eers making such brazened statement after the government has worked so hard to punish" profteers?

FINE CoUNTRY-NEEDs DEVELOPMENT

From the numerous letters received from all parts of the country relative to the big body of open land north of Grand Canyon, recently writ ten up in The Sun, it is plain that there are thousands of homeseekers looking for location
 There is big country that will and can be de veloped north of the Colorado river, but condi- tions are such at the present time that it would be foolhardy for the average individual to at- tempt locating until there is more development. A large party of people, well equipped with sup plies, with guides who know conditions to be met, might take advantage of this country in advance of surveys; an advance guard, as it were, to pre- pare the way for others to come but even they should know in advance what they could expect from the government. Development of House Rock Valley and adjoining country must be done in large way it is some 200 miles off railways, out of beaten paths and is too much of an under taking for separate individuals who hope to make a living off the country when they get there. Many people in this section of the country have known of this country for years, but knew that more development was necessary before going in there.

Mildewed Mildred says she believes Franklin

Mildewed Mildred says she believes Franklin Roosevelts idea of advising all members of other parties to vote the democratic ticket, is very thoughtful one, which if carried out by the vot- CTS, would result in his election without so much argument and trouble of campaigning How ever, so many republicans seem so stubborn and set in their ways that there is little hope of their accepting his kindly invitation, much preferring to be willful and cause political trouble just when there is so much other trouble the republicans could better be attending to.

WHY HE QUIT DEMOCRATS

Every day brings bundle of letters from de- serting democrats pledging their allegiance to Harding and Coolidge.
 If prize were to be given to the democrat giving the best reason for enlisting in the move nnent to return America to constitutional gov ernment, it would probably be awarded to the following confidential letter that arrived from a former prominent California Bourbon leader. This man heads kis brief statement with "Wilsonian Idealism," and then uses famous presidential expression to open with. He writes
 "WILSONIAN IDEALISM-May I not be permitted to suggest that Wood row Wilson is the man who put the ''T' in tideaP? In fact he seems to have overdone the job, for the Wilsonian ideal the T' is the principal ingredient, and the 'deaP does not much matter any old deal is good enough for the other fellow And yet, strangely, the deal is permanent-it never passes; it is always T-deap and 'you-deal.' What we need now, and what we are to get is an entirely new 'deal.'
 "P. S-I have been a democrat for years-my first vote was for Tilden in 1876. But have no go along mind and refused to follow the Wilsonian de- lection.
 ''I am anti-league and believe that Lodge republicanism is near the dem- ocracy of my political forebears. 1 am now registered, for the first time, as republican, and shall stay republican as long as issues remain as they are now joined."I

CAUSE OF PAINFUL
AND SLOW TEETH
ING BABIES

Baby usually cuts its first teeth
soon after the fifth month. The time
varies in different families and may
be delayed by prolonged illness, but
slow or painful dentition is generally
caused by improper feeding, which
produces Indigestion, faulty elimina-
ton and undernourishment. This
lack of nourishment causes slow for
nation of the teeth, and naturally
much pain when they come through,
as in later months baby's gums are
harder.
If the baby is fretful, sleeps poor
ly, loses appetite and occasionally has
slight fever during teething time,
indigestion is probably the cause, but
care must be taken not to use strong,
irritating drugs that cause infamma-
ton of the delicate membrane of ba-
by's stomach.
One of the best laXatives for teeth
ing babies is "Baby Ease" perfect
ed preparation by a baby specialist
that is easy-acting, non-irritating,
does not produce over-action, or
leave baby constipated. "Baby Ease"
is a safe. harmless and efficient laxa-
tive and corrective. Use it and you
will see a wonderful Improvement in
your baby, if not, take him to ply
