Phoenix Has a Plumbing Shop That Is Second to None.

Once again l haze revived my inter- est in household furniture, after some thing of lapse of time, and Saturday spent almost the entire. afternoon prowling among the stores that cater to the home furnisher. Right now I am especially interested in bathroom fixtures and plumbing. A shiny white bathroom, equipped in the modern and ul to-date way that the plumbers of today know so well, is, think, one of the most attractive, as well as impor- tant, rooms in the home.
 And the plumbers are, perhaps among the greatest benefactors of the human race. For it is they who have to a great extent, rid the earth of con- tagious diseases and have enabled the person of average income to have in their homes bathrooms of such lux uriousness as the plutocrat of a gen. eration ago did not dream.
 And I have found just about what l want, 1 think. at the George Hageman Plumbing Co. on Second and Adams streets. Mrs. Allison suggested that go to this shop, as her home is equipped with bathroom fixtures from Hageman's, which have proven to be entirely satisfactory.
 Sometimes, I think, it is a trifle diff ncult to decide just what one wants the most, or what would be the best suited to their needs. But the sales men in this shop so thoroughly under stand the business that one need only suggest their requirements and they will receive all of the assistance neces- sary.
 I especially like the square pedestal wash basins, and I found several al Hageman's that are especially at tractive

 few days ago there appeared before the senate committee reconstruction Mir. Hwen Davies. We of Arizona know Mir. Davies for highly sensible man: for his good work in this commissioner of concation in the federal department of labor. Mir. Davies testified before the senate commission as to improvement that should be instituted for the benefit of labor which itself play so important part in the work of reconstruction. He spoke of only thing time. legislation extend the fa- cilties of the Postal Savings banks and for in- in the rate of interest deposits. That he said would be encouragement to national thrift, something in which sadly deficient. But he urged 1t the stabilizing factor in labor which is now too fluid and restless.
 Mir. Davies would have branch post office savings banks established isolated camps where large num- bers of employed and where banking facilities either meager n-existent
 The results of such improvement said Mir Davies would be:
 "u) Contribution to greater stability of labor The man will full savings fund will impair it by striking without a good and sufficient
 "C2) Reduction of labor turnover The man with a savings fund will not be ready to roam or move except feels that the is for the better
 "(3) The of savings fund account will have greater tendency to find an anchorage and home which will increase his interest in his neighborhood also in the general welfare of county state and nation"

A Coming Together

suburban Day" Oct 2s. is the first of a series of incidents in program designated by the Mer- chants and Manufacturers association to bring the people of not only this valley. but of region sur rounding Phoenix. in what may call a homoge- neous territory together. It is movement of the business men of the city and is not selfish ment since it is undertaken for the benefit of all.
 Phoenix is the natural center of commercial Ari- zona It is the crossroads. It is the point from which there is the greatest radiation in every direction this movement of the business men is to establish a definite deImaton of the extent of the radiation.
 Primarily the merchants of Phoenix would be benefitted by this movement. but that is the feet of its larger aspect and the benefit they would derive would be noticeably adverse to the merchants in the smaller surrounding towns In the long run would be the better for them the people would learn that not only in Phoenix but in their home towns they may buy as cheaply they could anywhere else in the country.
 We suppose that nowhere in the United States Is there a community u which the people. many of the people do not suppose that they labor under price disadvantages. They hear that in other To- entities things arc cheaper and they believe it They look upon their own merchants proftoers and that

 E. c. Phelps supported the league and urged it's support by voters at the election in November. Judge Frank O. Smith took the negative view and gave many arguments as to why it should be voted down as at present constituted.
 One of the biggest crowds of the series of meetings attended the debate. Dean William Scarlett presided Each talk was allotted 30 minutes. with a IS minute rebuttal later. Applause was about evenly divided between the two

fore sending to some place out of Pboa- nix, I think.
 Nowadays there are so many lovely things put out by the plumbers sbon which add so much to the batbroon1 There are white, shiny little foot tuhe. the bath tubs can be had in so many uiIlereht designs. And, by the way the built-in in tubs are becoming very popular now, as they look so unusually well and eliminate that not entirely beautiful line between the tub and the floor. And one may have wash basins that Tit into the wall or that stand on pedestals wherever one may wish them These come in either round or square and are very attractive in either oe- sign.
 And then the Hageman shop has Wide selection of mirrors, with white enameled frames that are made espe- clally for bathrooms. These come in round, oval or square, and range in prices to suit any pocketbook
 Installing the fixtures in the bath room is, I think, something of a 1ob. too. But the Hageman shop tends to this part of furnishing your home so skillfully That before one hardly real izes it the bathroom is all complete with the lovely new white fixtures. And with a tiled floor and walls there is no possibility of ones new bathroom becoming splashed and marked by wa ter. And with pale colored or white washable rugs on the flood, one can have a perfectly appointed bathroom and not send out of Phoenix in order 10 secure the most complete and best fixtures
 I am going to have my bathroom equipped from this shop, and I know of several others who are intending to do the same.

Presidential Campaigns

with this speech. There were but two days until election. then, and the dis clalmer did not reach the voters Tn New York there were certain unscrup- ulous ward workers who told the tale that Blaine himself had denounced the triple evils of 'Rum, Romanism and Rebellion!'
 Despite the frantic efforts of the Re publican legions. despite their bitter denunciation of the Democrats the fatal alliteration got in it's work Many good Catholics who had been persuad ed to turn from their Democratic lean ng to vote for Blaine changed their minds again and voted the straight Democratic ticket. It was in the oays of the ascendancy of the Irish vote in New York.
 Either the Conkling detection in Oneida county. the Burchard break, the St John Prohibition vote, or the Butler vote was sufficient to turn the sca.e If any one of these things had not hap pened, if the vote lost by anyone had been saved to the Republicans. Blaine would have been elected and Grover Cleveland never would have been heard of in national affairs. By such trifles, accidents and animosities are the af- fairs of a republic influenced.
 An dHluSlnS ledluTe ol lAe Tecepliou of the somewhat startling news that a Democrat had been elected President. was the wailing of the ignorant negroes in the south. Republican politicians had taught them that a Democratic president meant an instant return to slavery. The same politicians mad promised each negro forty acres and a mule in the event of Isnublican sue cess. The forty acres and a mule story hadn't come true in the past, but the negroes feared the woe of political prophecy might be true. In some sec l tions it required weeks to reassure darkies and to make them understand that Cleveland would do them no harm

 We know as a fact that prices in Phoenix. though prices now are high everywhere, low they anywhere. The thing aImed at is bring the people together in closer trade relations and then they will learn that merchants not profiteers They will also learn that their own local merchants are not profiteers We will all get along better in this world with better understanding of another.

Where the People
 May Have a Hearing
The Irish Question
Florence. Ariz.. Oct. 15, 1920

Florence, Ariz., Oct. 15, 1920 To the Editor of The Republican,:
 If your remarks upon the Irish Question was an appeal for Irish votes, they will signally fail. The Irish ex- pect nothing from either party, so far as that is concerned. and certainly ex- pect nothing from the Republican par ty. Irishmen, that is south of Ireland men, are not Republicans, never are, or so rarely so, that they need not be mentioned. I speak, because l was born and brought up among Irishmen and have associated with them all my days. Just as I have said; Irishmen south are always Democrats; so on the contrary Englishmen are always Republicans. At this present moment cannot think of one south of Ireland man. who was ever a Republican and I cannot think of one Englishman who was not.
 As a Republican myself I rejoiced, almost wickedfy, when Governor Cox committed himself to the Irish seces- sion and remarked, He has cooked his goose" and believe so.
 On the contrary I rejoiced that Sen ator Harding had had the good sense to confine himself to our own busi- ness" so to speak, ana even thought of writing him to the intent that he con- tinue in the good way. You are mis- taken in thinking that the majority of Americans want to see the disinteg- ration of the British empire. We may have troubles enough of our own; we have had them, and they cost us dear. and we may have them again, and worse. This is bad policy and worse impotence, than anything contained in the league of nations.
 If we want to keep out of Europe why not keep out?
 Respectfully,
 J. HUNTER. (We do not understand how MT Hunter, even for an instant could have suspected that the editorial was an ap- peal for Irish votes. It was condemn atory of such appeals. Only the small narrow demagogue ever makes such ar appeal which is invariably an insult tc the intelligence of a whole race Only a very ignorant member of a race ear be misled by such an appeal. Mir | Hunter was also mistaken in suppos- ing that we meant to convey that d majority of Americans want to see tho disintegration of the British empire | thought we believe that a majority oi Americans are sympathetic with Ire 1 land. Home rule or freedom for Ire land would by no means be the disin- 1 tegration of the empire.)

DISCUSS RESULT IF
 ]. ADAM BEDE'S TALK

There was general discussion yes terday of the speech of ]. Adam Bede at the Y. NJ. C. A. stadium on Saturday night and the effect of it. Many Democrats are said to have been con- vinced by the address of the famous orator. One Democrat said last night that he had talked the matter over yesterday with fifteen of his nen,o- cratic acquaintances. twelve Of whom said that they intended to " e for Harding. Of course not all O these converts were made at the Bede meet ing but they were a little more firmly grounded in the new faith there.

Arizona republican., 1920-10-18


 Blaine made a stumping tour Of I7 Middle West and was welcomed as few men have ever been. There was no doubt in the minds of either Republl- cans or Democrats that he hac mace many votes for himself, and that ne had swung the tide in his favor. on his way back east he stopped In in- diana to visit his sister, who was Mother Superior in a Roman CathoIc convent. This called attention 70 the fact that his mother and sisters were devout Catholics. and was liable to inject a religious issue into the cam paign.
 Instead of going directly to his home in Maine. MT Blaine stopped over Tn New York city and thereby committed a fatal blunder. He dined with Jay Gould a fact which the Democratics seized upon to show his intimacy with the Napoleons of Finance in all street That dinner undoubtedly cost Elaine many votes.
 But the climax was reached In the Burchard incident. MT. Blaine had been accused of so many horrible things that it was thought wise to nave a delegation of prominent clergymen call on him to show the country that the Protestant ministers of New Aork trusted him. Mir Blaine received the delegation on the grand stairway at the old Fifth Avenue hotel. The address on the part of the delegation was ue- hvered by Dr. Burchard' an aged Brooklyn preacher. At its close came the fatal phrase in describing the evils against which Blaine stood: Rum Romanism and Rebellion!'
