WILSON'S DEMOCRATIC STAND

President Wilson says the democratic party must stand four square for the ratification of the treaty without the crossing of "t" or the doting of an 'i." The recent primaries held throughout the country are pretty conclusive ev- idence that the people have awakened up to the fact that the ratification of this treaty does not mean world peace for all time as claimed by Wilson, but rather means world scrap for the United States for all the time they stay in such a league and under such terms. The leaders of the democratic party know that such stand means an utter rout of the democratic party, all save Wilson and he will find it out this fall Even England would be well satisfied with the treaty with the reservations, but the people of the Unit ed States, many of whom were favorable to the treaty with the reservations, now believe that they do not want it under any circumstances. America needs the help of Americans at home. When England can send clothing back to this country and sell it for half what the people are paying for the home product, it is about time that some of the "big brains" of the administration come to our rescue rather than to be worrying over European problems. England has always been able to take care of herself and it does not need President Wilson's help at this time, nor that of the democratic party.

GOVERNMENT PROFITEERING

Last year, according to the testimony of Gov. Harding, of the Federal Reserve Board, the earn ings of the reserve banks represented return of no per cent on their capital stock. For the present year the earnings are estimated at $100- 0000, which will be in excess of the profits Of last year. Here is government utility, created solely for the purpose of providing an easier sys- tenn of financial credits, putting tax upon the people of $1O0000,0O0 year. That huge sum is paid by member banks in the shape of interest on loans, and is promptly passed on to the public as another addition to the high cost of living. Is there any wonder that an investigation of the administration of the Federal Reserve Act will soon be undertaken by congress?

THE TREND OF THE TIMES

"Never never, never again." said beautiful young lady the other day, in her most impress i've manner, when she was accused of being a democrat 'T used to be, having been brought up that way, but after the doing of this admin istration, am ashamed to be called democrat. When was very young I had heard so much talk of politics and Bryan as the democratic candi- date, that when the democrats put up a new can didate, innocenty caused much merriment at home when earnestly inquired: Why, is Bryan dead?' I suppose hearing of Bryan so much l had concluded he was their permanent candidate. The present cost of sugar as result of the pres ent administration is sufficient to change any one, let alone the vast amount of money that was squandered during the war; I'm for Wood and never again for democratic administration" :" and she with thousands more feel the same way about it. The supposed purpose of a party is to bring about good government and when it fails in that only foolish person will still stand for it.

It is not going to be long before some live in- dividual or company of individuals, is going to investigate the great scope of country north of the Grand Canyon and commence development of it for ranchers and small stockmen. It will take some years of pioneering but there is room up in that section of the country for half the peo- pie in Arizona to make good living in and get rich. The development of this country is going to be rapid from now on and it only remains for the right live ones to get busy on this practically undiscovered country. It may take the insight of newcomers to see the value of this vast open country; old timers have been so close to it that they overlook it's value and the great possibilities there as they usually do

WHY THEY LOVED MOEUR

The alleged investigation of the state land department appears to be more of desire among, each other, rather than desire to clean up bad certain few democrats to dob" something onto mess in the interest of the people at large. Some of the evidence Skrted on the narrow edge when it was brought out that money had been sent Commissioner Moeur for This campaign for gov elnor" by big stOckmen, with the intimation that much more would be sent if required. The oil company incorporated by Moeur, in which many of the big stockmen took stock-but mainly af- ter their leases had been approved not to infiu- ence his action in the least but just as return for a friendly act after they had received what they wanted.
 The whole land board undoubtedly know what have been happening in the land office in gen. eral way for number of years, but all being can didates for reelection or for some other state office this fall, were very diffident in saying any thing until fight came up among themselves over division of the offices for the coming two years, then things began to happen. None of them seem to be verymuch interested in what has happened the people during the past years or who got the land. No reports have ever been made showing who actually is using the lands held in the hands of dummies and it is doubtful if any such report will be made for it might rifle the ire of the general public so strongly that there would be clean sweep of the whole mess of officeholders who have been holding office at the capitol in one way or another, ever since Arl- zona became state
 The vast number of small stockmen over the state know they have been getting the worst of it while the big fellows have taken what they wanted but they have not been able to put their finger down on the sore spot because of the shrewdness of manipulators, though there is 8 possibility of doing so now, since the people in all parts of the state are thoroughly aroused over the situation.
 At least if the past handling of the lands of the state is the policy of the land board and land commissioner, the people want change as soon as they can get it.

Through the efforts of the Phoenix Chamber of Commerce, Census Supervisor Sam Bradner has applied for an extension of time in which to add more names to the population of Phoenix. According to the general belief up this way it would be good idea to reopen the census here and put in more of the people who live here. There seems to be a very general impression that only the "tops" were counted during the last sal aried period, or that it was merely poll list of the democratic party for the coming election.

It is said by some professor that American men are becoming effeminate.
