A Question of Typography

There Is one newspaper in this world which Is not worried by the "open shop the closed shop" which is not concerned with wage scales which approaches the end of agreement with trepida- ton.
 It is the Wickenburg. Ariz, State Miner, run by Dad Watson The real work is done by two -Mergenthalers' his small who set the type and distribute the paper throughout the commun- ity Their duties in the State Miner are incidental to their regular attendance at school.
 The other day one of the "Mickies" engaged on "copy' appealed for parental technical advice Pop said he you can't divide united can you? "Oh, yes,' said Pop divide on i.' u-n-P and run ted over"

An Enormou. Graft

How money must be crninally wasted by the risk bureau is shown in story which appeared in The Republican yesterday morning. The previous day it stated in Associated Press dispatch that there had paid out in the whole country by the bureau for dental work minor eye. and threat service sS0,000,OoO. Those figures standing alone were informative and would not in themselves suggest that there had been waste We simply would not know.
 But there are other figures which make com 35.oo0 under treatment. We know also that there under local treatment in Phoenix HOO men and that the cost of treatment here little less than $13000 that the consisted not only the described the dispatch but involved ad- dition than 100 major surgical operations and numberless minor At the rate indicated by the government expenditure. the local treatment would have s2.2So.oo0 instead of s1s.00o.
 It has been suggested that perhaps there was an error in the transmission of figures in the A. r. dispatch and that the total governmental expenditure for the treatment described sSo0oo0o instead of $soo0o.o0o. Suppose that is and 1t is nothing a supposition. then the local would have cost at the government rate mentioned in the dis patch $2S0000 instead of $13000
 It is stated that reasonable rates charged in HOO would have been about sS5,ooo. still less supposng the total to have been sS.oooooo less than foreth of the government rate if total $S0.000.000. Here is palpably enormous graft It is wonder the is finding difficult to raise money for the soldiers bonus.

WASHINGTON, July l3.-For a great many years 1t has been publicly and privately deplored that the United States. one of the great world powers. is the only one which has not a real diplomatic service. It's ministers and ambassadors to the other nations of the globe are almost invariably men appointed from private life to repre- sent the United States abroad. often as reward for special service to their political party or large contri- buttons to the campaign fund.
 It has been the custom for some members of the party out of power to talk of establishing a diplomatic service on a par with the military and naval services. with men trained to diplomacy taking the highest ranks as their training and fitness for these posts of great responsi- bility are shown.
 Under present conditions. which have obtained for many years. 1t is impossible, for a poor man or man of moderate means-no matter what his qualifications-to accept the ap- pointment as ambassador at London or Paris. for instance. The establish ment which the dignity of these posi- tions requires is far out of reach o the ordinary pocketbook, and th' N bassadors is scarcely a drop in th' bucket in making up the ambassa dorial budget.
 Recently. through. congressional ac ceptance of the gift of J. P. Morgan the United States acquired an em bassy in London. It was one of NIT Morgan's houses. The salary al lowed to the American ambassado to the court of St James would no -rrs- 4I~ alone for this house
 Diplomacy as a Profession,
 Rgland and France do not lool to men who have made themselve valuable to political parties and wh have the large means if nothing elst to pay for accepting the honor O diplomatic appointments. Ther young men are trained as diplomat just as they are trained as naval of ficers or military experts They hay before them the certainty that if the have brains and ability enough. the will go on up the ladder and gain tn honor and emoluments of the fines diplomatic posts
 In Washington nearly every em bassy and legation of all the nation of the world represented here ar owned by those governments. In tn cases of the more important nations these establishments are in keepin with the dignity and position of thei countries, and their representative here are not forced to pay rental fo them. The salaries paid to foreig representatives in Washington. par ticularly of the big powers, are s large that they can live on theI easily, and their governments. as rule, also provide a large fund fe them for the entertainment of Amer can officials and the other member of the diplomatic corps here.
 In times past men have been ar pointed to diplomatic posts who's behavior has gone far toward makin | the United States a joke in the eyt of the people of the countries whel l they have been sent. A great deal | publicity was given a few years ae

The ssnus

That there Is a necessity for the postponement of action on the soldiers bonus no doubt true. We do not think that there is material statement in President Hardings special message that may be successfully controverted. Yet bonus promised and it now withheld
 That will be difficult thing to get The trouble to have been in the comprehensiveness the the promise to give bonus to every soldier equal terms regardless of the inequality of service It 10 fall the soldier whose life in daily peril in the battle front. whose days filled with toll and discomfort and whose nights with seeplessness; 1t was to fall also upon the man who had at the last moment been dragged out and in ducted and barely reached training camp few miles from his home when the armistice signed. It was also fall upon those valiant souls who got carly the ground floor. Into places where they were ex- posed to danger and whose most toisome duty the drawing of their pay. So broad, compre- hensve and is the bill that 1t is possible Its blessings to fall upon certain conscientious ob- 5ectors
 Is true that the outlay under the provisions of the bill would be ruinous But better bill would have distinguished those who much service from those who gave little at all A very large majority. very overwhelming majority the young men who got into the training camps but got no further profited from their experiences They back in better health and better morals and with broader outlook. Of there were some sad exceptions in men who returned in broken health from the training camps
 Let the bill be trimmed down . proper size, that there will be rewards only for those who earned them by actual service.
 Reward fighters" That Is . slogan which is little too general for there many in perous or arduous service who not fighters. But cut the heroes and all who patently contributed no arduous service.
 The plan is too carelessly and wantony compre hensive. lacking in discrimination and in recogni- tion of merit It is of piece with all reckless legislation following the notably for the dis tribution of medals. Within the last week told by service man" who either in- ducted reached training camp three days before November H. 19S that he just been surprised to be officially informed that he entitled service medal for which he asked to make formal ap- plication This man had sense of humor. He knew that he not entitled to service medal and was going make application for it. It would be a medal cheap to be worth less than the ink and paper to be in the application. In his all the service medals were cheapened. He was prop eriy moved by of gratitude to his govern -ment for offering it to him.

 Cost of Missing Word
 A single instance will serve to show the great importance of diplomatic work of the highest character. In tEs negotiations over the Panama canal which resulted in the agreement
 tween England and the United Sta4s regarding ship tolls Known as the Hay Paucefote treaty. a single word gave rise later to all of the troubles which have filled the newspapers. The treaty as it was drawn by Lard Pauncefote. representing Great Britain. and Secretary of State Hay, provided that "all nations" should pay tolls at the same rate. Later. when il was planned to let American ships pass through the canal at less cost | than foreign vessels. England pro- tested vigorously, calling attention tc 1 the wording of the treaty to which | the United States had subscribed The state department pointed ou' thar this wording meant all nations | other than She United States.

 England said that if this had beer 1 meant. surely the treaty would hay set it forth ar | this word ''otac:'' Il would have ben included in tn,

A Party Split

There seems to be apprehension on the part of Republican newspapers of Arizona of . split in the Republican party. and glee the part of Democratic newspapers notably Major Key's International at the prospect of schism-
 A split just would not be irreparabe dis would be the split in the fall of 1922 which should dread if at all The split seems to consist of nothing but dissatisfaction of small negligible factions and politicians with each other. Republicans at large not concerned with the dis trbution of the federal offices with the varying at titudes of politicians toward MT. Cameron. We much more interested in the state the Demo- cratic party will be If it should pull itself to- gether should be driven together by Republican mistakes it will make difference whether the Re- publican party is divided into hundred fragments or dwelling together in the beautiful har- mony. That is why are watching the Democrats, and regarding the present little Republican bicker- ings with indifference
 Whatever the election figures last fall showed the Democratic is the dominant party in Arizona dominant by al overwhelming majority. We do know how much the Democrats have learned within the last five years They proceeded through out the administration upon the theory that they were unbeatable. And for long time it appeared that they could not make a fatal blunder. however egregious it might be-
 But the reckoning came at last when thousands of Democrats turned against the party. We cannot afford to believe that their desertion was intended to be permanent. Whether they will return will depend upon circumstances which the Republicans have some, but not exclusive control If they should become dissatisfied with without reason, with the way the Republicans running things they will go back and take some Republicans with them.
 In the language which Octavius Roy Cohen puts the mouths of his Bummin'ham characters. a split in the Republican party is one of the least m- portant episdoes they is but. It would cut little figure the general result than split in the Socialist party.
 We are not belittling the Republican party in Arizona. We only telling wholesome truth in the of warning. to the end that we Republicans be unduy puffed by political prosperity.
