ARCH-HYPOCISY

"To keep the United States out of war is only piker's job," declared Representative Charles c. Kearns, of Ohio, recently in expressing an opinion on the league of nations. "So the presi- dent now desires to extend his field of activities to the entire universe" MT. Kearns continued. "That wing of the democratic party which asks us to join our fortunes and our lives with strange and alien nations seeks to alay our fears by promises of universal and perpetual peace. At the same time it sought to place within our midst an armed camp of nearly 600000 regular soldiers, augmented annually by force of nearly million of compulsory trained 19-year-old boys. Away with such hypocrisy"

A REPUBLICAN JOB

Declaring that millions of dollars have been wasted on surveys and plans for various projects in the United tHates, Representative John M. Baer of North Dakota, states that it is the result of duplication of work and lack of coordination between the engineering services of the govern ment. For the protection of farmers and their property from floods and to save millions of dol lars in crop losses every year, Representative Baer states: "We must cor-ordinate the differ ent branches of the engineering department of this government and get our bureaus, commis- sions and other departments systematized."

There are strong indications that this will be a republican year in Arizona with a splendid op- portunity for eecting the major part of the state ticket. The republicans will undoubtedly offer the people ticket filled with the names of strong men and women. Eight years of democracy has made the people stop and think whether it is worth while to swallow the record at their own cost and attempt to continue the same kind of an administration longer. It has cost billions unnec- essarily and dug deep into the pocketbooks of the people, Many may still believe in the democratic principles of old, but are dead against the way they have been applied during the past years The people at large want return to sane living and sane conditions once more and mere matter of old beliefs is not going to stand in their way of getting the change so much desired.

BILLION FOR SUGAR-BUND

"If the government of the United States in it's need for revenue to maintain itself and meet the extravagant expenditure of the war dared to put a consumption tax of two cents per pound on a recognized necessity like sugar, it would have been condemned and the administration perpe- trating the outrage would have been defeated at the first election" declared Representative Ed ward E. Browne, of Wisconsin, recently. "But," said MT. Browne, President Wilson has made it possible for the black-fag sugar profiteers to levy tax not of two cents, but of over 10 cents on each pound of sugar consumed, tax amounting to S1,012,000,O00 on the people of the United States.''

A most heart rending condition of affairs ob- tained in Los Angeles for time over the sup posed shortage of gasoline. Amid sobs and heart breaks meeting was called to ascertain why this life-juce could not be obtained and it was ascertained by careful investigation that if the price was raised from 24'a cents, which they had been paying, to 30 or 35 cents, plentiful supply would be forthcoming. Strange no one had thought of this before, for it has been discovered by government experts after long and careful study of conditions, that after certain amount of advance propaganda as to the scarcity of given product, good stiff raise in price always relieved the situation

The Sun is republican paper, but it does not propose to assassinate anyone merely because he happens to be democrat and does not agree with us. We are all Americans and have perfect right to our opinions and to argue with each oth- CT as to the best plans of government. We will all have to live together after our political prob lems have been settled for the time being. It is well, however, to pick out bad spots wherever they happen to be found and "soak em" in the in terest of the general public. It is high time that the people discard the "yellow dog" idea and get busy with the big idea that efficiency and actual merit are worthy of consideration.

Issuing bonds is one of the greatest pass times of the day. Eastern papers are filled with advertisements for every conceivable kind of a bond, and if there is any old thing that happens to strike the public fancy nowadays, some one is ever present to rise up and enthusiastically ex- claim: Let's vote bonds." Yet taxpayers are wondering why taxes keep continually going higher and higher. It is only another system of a charge account and the people have to pay soon- CT or later.

Senator Reed says he is perfectly satisfied with Governor Cox's reservations to the Wilson covenant and his interpretation of the covenant. President Wilson's friends say the president is likewise satisfied with Governor Coxs reserva- tions. This is singular state of affairs, for Senator Reed and President Wilson have never agreed on anything so far as the covenant is con- cerned.
