 The name of the state of Tennessee will be hon. orably with that great event It afforded the climax of movement which the states entered sso enthusiastically after the adoption by congress- of the Nineteenth Amendment.
 It does not to now so strange that this privilege had been so long withheld from American women The old prejudice fixed and passed SO gradually that we hardly observed and did not think of it. It seemed to us quite natural preju- Gice. occurred to that it was strange relic of our caveman days when the the inferior in the only qualities which men then possessed, brute courage and strength.
 But the student of American history century two will look upon this deprivation of wo- men long period a most remarkable halt in progress of civilization. While had ad vanced steadily every upward direction remained in the of hairy, low-b -browed ancestors.

 The adoption of the amendment and it's ratifica- by the earlier states may regarded in part a recognition of the achievements of American privilege of suffrage would been longer layed but it must come soon. The crowning act however was rather grudgingly performed. It recognition of the claims of but it's performance required by a political, partisan exgency.

Selling a Pig In a Poke

We know it is none of our business who gets the Democratic nominations state offices We are entitled as all spectators along the side lines to indulge in comment the play. So we think that the members of the board who are now canvassing the state for votes primary leav- ing the affairs of the department at it's most critical stage hung up a period of more than two months, not making for themselves thereby.
 Until the land department had some policy with respect to the leasing and the of lands. Whether the policy good one or bad one does not matter.
 Those interested in the disposition of the state lands knew where they stood But now no one knows. If the three candidate members of the board should be nominated and they would still be members of the board and with two years ahead of them they would announce policy We think the stockmen and homesteaders and also those having an interest, though direct one in the state lands would rather have determina- tion of policy before the primaries. Nobody but natural born gambler will buy pig in a poke
 There is no question vital people of this state the disposition of the public lands Certainly the people deeply concerned in the political we'll being ex-offclo members of the land department. They are concerned on1v in the conduct of department
 We think if these candidate members would de- eide in favor of land policy whatever it might he that would make them some votes at the primary: it would or course lose them some But their silence their delay. is be interpreted as playing both ends against the middle nobody likes that kind of a player
 candidate often withholding a public pro- nouncement of the things he stands makes known his position privately That be satisfactory if he could thus reveal himself to enough people and convince them that what told them was what he had told everybody else But naturally they would believe that

Why We Should Reoister

There are only nine days more for registration for the primary. There has been already good registration. this county. there many hundreds who have not registered, though doubt many of them expect to register after the primary for the general election.
 They do cause good citizen ship by registering and by presenting them selves the primary. Especially the Republicans better tho cause good citizenship by doing that, thus reducing the apparent discrepancy between the number of Republicans the number Democrats.
 That Arizona is nominally Democratic is doubted but that it is overwhelmingly, hopelessly Democratic do not believe. We do word "hopelessly' in a derogatory to our Democratic friends The situation would be as bad if the state hopeessly Republican It is not a good thing for state county to be one-sided that part of population it's votes will uselessy; n disfranchised
 If it can be shown that parties pretty nearly in strength each will better and stronger candidates. And if party the other makes mistake in that respect, it will be likely to be rectfied the general election.
 The Republicans have seldom made good showing at the primaries the reason that they have not tried to do They not had the in- centive of contest for thing. The lack of that due to their belief they would have no chance the general election. To use a classic term they have allowed themselves to be "buffa- loeu. Iney nave stood aside and permitted Demo- cratic factions to wrangle candidates neither faction caring much about the fitness candi- dates and result they frequently presented the people some pretty scrubby ones
 The Republicans change all this by turning out at the primary this They make such showing that if the Democrats should nominate unfit for office there enough Democrats who care more for fitness than party to assist with some hope in defeating them. A result will be that will only have officers next wear but that two years hence the Democrats more careful. the Republicans will be sangune and will have better officials
 Beside, the Republicans have this year some con- tests of their own extremely important one for the nomination for United States senator That alone should bring every Republican voter in the state the primary
