A Stolen Senator

What after all, is fame? Here is United States Senator Henry F. Ashurst who served Arizona in the greatest deliberative body earth ever since Arizona emerged from it's swadding clothes-ten years Ashurst in all that time has been an inconspcuous member of that body. but has com- manded its attention attention the country from the time he entered it. He has not been merely one of ninety-s senator's of whom are seldom heard of outside their states MT. Ash ursts name appeared conspicuously favorably in the public prints and have taken pride in the luster which has been reflected upon his state.
 But now we hear him Senator Ashurst of Oklahoma" And whence do hear that? From some obscure, slpshod newspaper or periodical? No from journal which takes a special pride in its accuracy statement typography, the Literary Digest" which in its current issue, reviewing the subject the Vostead act quotes Senator Ashurst of Oklahoma" staunch supporter prohibition, against the unwarranted intrusion of prohibition enforcement officers without due process
 It is notorious fact that those who seldom make mistakes, when they do slip, fall hard they go the ultimate limit, "the whole hog speak classcay. That is the Literary Digest done in trans planting Senator Ashurst into Oklahoma
 Now we are left in doubt whether it was Senator Ashurst Senator Robert L. Owen who said what the Digest quoted Both occupy the same ground with respect prohibition and the ground with respect to the orderly enforcement of law.

The Incoming Tide

Prosperity is coming back to the valley, not in rush. like the incoming tide, each wave tapping a little farther inland than the preceding one. We see it in a score of ways and it in the better feeling displayed the streets in the stores and wherever men meet.
 Months ago it agreed that the worst was over, and then we saw that it not bad we had thought it We coming to the time described by The Republican last winter when could look back and wonder why had been per- turbed; when would write off the disappoint- ments which had seemed to to be actual losses
 The chief thing then needed to get solid ground again, and feel 1t; another was to quit looking back and to look around and forward. Nobody can get anything worth while out of the past-not experience. We carry that with
 The cotton movement is approaching activity and we have millions of dollars worth of cotton to sell more than s5.ooo.Ooo worth. A few months ago there was no sale for it; much of 1t is selling at price of course far below what was expected when it was planted but far than we expected when the depression deepest. There have been several sales within the last few days at 30 and within day two there have been sales at Tempe at 32 and Friday at B cents. Grins said to be broadening faces which have been long and the hope is expressed that price of 40 cents will be reached
 Much of the cotton or course, will be sold at loss; we have long since made up minds to that. It will be sold at considerably than the extrava gant cost at which we grew it. But must keep optimistic eye the fact that it will bring to the valley the enormous sum of than s5,o0o,O00. And then have other cotton coming which know is growing at profit.
 We getting the dairy cows back again. There again feel the touch of solid ground
 Some of thought that account of the great change we had made in agricultural operations in shifting by wholesale to cotton recovery would be slower here than in most other parts of the country But think now that recovery Is going to be rapid than in most regions.
 The copper situation is also steadily improving. Only few days ago pr. L. D. Ricketts, who is as well-informed regarding copper living and who is extremely conservative, said he believed that the first of the year would witness the rehabi taton of the cotton industry.
 We are all right and will remain all right if look forward and keep going in that direction.

The Shepherd Coming to Restore His Flock

The resignation of Hon. G. W. P. Hunt, United States minister Siam, has been reposing in the files of the department of so long that it may be said to have place among the archives. We have been informed that 1t reached the department quickly the mails could carry 1t immediately after March 4.
 We do not know why it has not been accepted; whether the department unwilling dispense with the valued diplomatic services of MT. Hunt; whether the president is unwilling yet to lay down club; whether there is hitch in arriving at a decision regarding the appointment of successor. We only know that Mr. Hunt is yet at Bangkok wearing out his soul.
 We have been informed privately and we believe reliably that MT. Hunt has definitely decided to stimulate the department in arriving at decision and that he has determined to return to Phoenix by if not before. very after. January l of next year, whether not successor has been appointed
 MT. Hunt evidently believes that he has business in Arizona of greater than any business his government may have in away Siam, and that he should hasten home to attend to it. Next year will be filled with business in Arizona and it is fit ting that those who expect participate in the transaction of it should be the ground early.
 In the absence of MT. Hunt his followers, who used to be numerous and powerful, have become scattered for want of shepherd. Hence the early of Mr. Hunt to gather together the scattered flock
 Those who have been close to MT. Hunt assure that he has ambition to hold office; that he wants be neither governor nor senator but that he wants to retrieve the Democratic party from tho keeping of the conservative element which has made such mess of tt-see the election ffgurss ]. November.
 It is pointed out that if Mir. Hunt had been on the ground things would have out differently the primaries last year candidates would have

 It is said that the work of reorganization of the Democratic party awaits the return of MT. Hunt and that when it has reorganized the conservative element will be put into restricted quarters little farther in the background than it has been before
 He will come back with a peculiar but by means unprecedented prestige-that of the dismal failure of his enemies within his party It is claimed that that prestige will attract him many Democrats who lave hitherto been against him and

LIGHT ON THE MIGHTY

come into being within the past few years, and which is just now getting a foothold in this country. Beyond a doubt it derives its strength and its method from the science of psycho- analysis. however much some of it's practitioners may try to deny the fact.
 Its most conspicuous example so far is the anonymous book Mirrors of Washington" which has made a sensation in the Capital city. It is modelled after a similar book, Mir TOTS of Downing Street." which has treated the British administration in the same way and achieved a wide popularity in England. It is a series of sketches of American politicians presidents, ex-presidents, senators and diplomats. The most striking thing about it is that it evidently is quite without political bias. The unknown author of this book sees his subject from the viewpoint of an artist. His only object is to portray and interpret his man-to make you see and understand him. His book has received much adverse criticism as well as much praise. It has been said that in some cases his facts are wrong, and that in others he has -e- vealed a personal dislike. He also has been blamed for not signing his name to a book which is so sure to be resented by a great many people.
 An Attempt at the Truth
 But even his detractors admit that he has written a brilliant and inter- esting book. No mere human can ever get at the complete truth about any one. The best he can do is to offer a plausible theory, logical and rI1I-s author of Mirrors most effectively does. Out of many such attempts comes the nearest approximation to the truth that we can hope for. If our public men were constantly sub jected to this sort of cool. scientific analysis, every voter who reads would finally come to have a clear idea of them.
 That is the one thing above all others that the voter needs and in the past has lacked. It has been said a thousand times that in America political life attracts only second rate men, that the real brains of the country seldom get into its govern ment. Surely one reason for this has been that the real stature and capac- ity of our political figures has all ways been hidden. Our political Journalism and oratory has been a smoke screen behind which frauds and bounders of all sorts have ad- vanced to high positions and have done incalculable harm. A book like Mirrors" whatever it's faults, is a brave attempt to throw a beam of light through this cloud of obscurity. to reveal the true size and nature of some of the strange beings that dwell behind it.
 And the same spirit and viewpoint that animates Mirrors" may be found cropping out in other places Some of the magazines display a far more critical and detached view of public men than they used to. There is strong reason to believe that a new kind of political journalism is coming into being, and that the old partisan buncombe is going to die of it's own absurdity and weakness.

A Significant German Demonstration
BY DR. FRANK CRANE tCopyright. 1921. by Frank Crane)

The dawn is slowly coming up. Out of the river slime of tradition the beast is rising and becoming man. There indications that the genus homo is beginning to think.
 Even in Germany, whence emerged the latest and most horrible sample of medieval madness, and where milltarlsm, monarchism, absolutism and other hold overs from barbarism ragged we have signs that the people, in that wisdom which sometimes can be tasted only in the dregs of defeat, turning toward the only thing that them and the world, that is rational, radical and courageous Pacifism.
 The other Sunday at Berlin there was held mon- ster demonstration of all the workers organizations of Germany in favor of worldwide peace and co-opera- ton between all peoples, and against mitarsm and imperialism"
 All the radical organizations, with the exception of the communists had formed committees to prepare for this meeting
 A list of the participating factors is interesting reading It is as follows:
 The independent social-democratic federation of Berlin.
 The social-democratic (majoritaire) federation.
 The union of the SyndcatS.
 The pacfist union of former cOmbatants.
 The German league for peace
 The German league for the League of Nations.
 The League of the New Fatherand
 The international league of women.
 The pacifist union of students.
 The union of the friends of religion and of peace.
 The union for radical ethics
 The union of those wounded in the war.
 The union of republican leaders.
 The union of the opponents to military service
 The world-unon of young women.
 The young women workers of Berlin
 The social-democratic (majoritare) young women
 The socialist young women.
 The union of Samaritan workers.
 The union of free German workers (syndicalist).
 This list is imposing. Nothing is more needed than that the workers of the world their modern weapon of organization to throw the fear of God into the narrow minds of the politicians who are willing to bring war, and are unwilling to take the simple measures needed to stop war; and would wreck the world to gain partisan advantage.
 It is the first time such manifestation has been made in Germany, and is sign that the backslidden human race is beginning to repent and come to the mourners bench

 But the conservatives will have earlier bridge to cross, in the primaries. and when they reach it they will find Horatius there recently Siam. If there shall be any glory in Democratic victory year it will not be theirs.

 Water Supply lessened
 TUCSON - Although the water supply of Tucson was markedly les sened by the elimination of well No. 1 from active service late Wednesday evening, there was no apparent shortage throughout the day Thurs day. When No. well, one of the best producers on the city water farm, collapsed Wednesday night it was placed out of service until it's pit can be concerted, a project which will require not less than two weeks, it is understood. Although the caving of one side near the bottom of the well pit resulted in no damage to the pump or machinery, it necessi- tates the stoppage of flow and re- tiring temporarily of the well. All caving was below the point at which machinery was located.-Citizen.
