THE DIFFERENCE

1t would be amusing, were 1t not suprernely
disgusting, to read the datribes directed against
president Harding by two or three undaunted
Wilsonian papers Of the country because the
present arms conference shows signs of really
accomplishing something. Because it is doing
these things which the league of nations failed
to do and is at the same time failing to fall into
Harding is excoriated. And as for poor senator
Lodge - WOW! All this, of course, is the sheer
est bunkum aimed to rehabilitate the discredited
and disowned Wilson. But it fails utterly to reg
lister with the American people. What we have
is an agreement of four powerful nations which
gives us more than the league ever pretended to
give us and which at the same time exempts us
from the tremendous burdens which France and
England quietly shifted onto our shoulders
through the bamboozling of president Wilson,
and which our senate, thank heaven, refused to
accept.
For example, there is nothing in this agree
ment which allows foreign nations to declare war
and which forces us to send armies to the utter
most parts of the world to protect the integrity
of nations in which we have no earthly interest.
The league did all of that
Then there is no agreement on our part to as
sumo mandates for fiea-bitten powers like Ar
menia and send soldiers there to die protecting
its bleak Businesses. There was such an agree
ment in the league.
We do not surrender our rights to maintain a
tariff nor to do certain other things in our do
nestle life which we did under the league.
In short and in fine, our agreement under the
present arrangement is simply binding as to our
conduct toward the powers. concerned. 1t does
not bind us to protect them or any other nation
and it in nowise affects our domestic life. 1t is
merely treaty in which several nations agree
for ten years to respect each others rights and
to cut out an unnecessary expense of armament
II is sound sense whereas the league was a WIS.,
ionarys folly. It is an agreement which guaran-
tees US peace without needless expenditure,
whereas the league forced us to go armed to the
teeth and fight at the drop of the hat - and
when foreign cabal dropped the hat, at that.
In short it is the difference between good bust
ness and bad business between wisdom and fol-

WHY PASS THE BUCK?

Whatever charges backward and forward that
may be made, the people of Arizona, democrats
and republicans alike are responsible for our
present condition of taxation. Down in their
hearts the people know the charges are foolish.
1t is not parties - parties are made up Of the
whole people. A strong partisan will do things
politically that he would be ashamed to do if it
was private business, just to put the other fell
low in the hole - the people pay the freight and
lay the blame wherever they hate most. For
some reason the people, and we mean, 1--WE, the
people, all of us" are hard to educate to the fact
qualified for the Offices they seek. Too many
are convinced Of a mans qualifications by job
hunters who want certain man elected for what
the job hunter has ben promised. The job hunt
er does not care whoop what happens to the
tax-paying voter after the election is over, so
long as he gets his. No good business man hires
man to work for him just because he likes the
way he wears his hair. He does it because of the
way he uses his brains. The voter and the tax
payer has no sympathy coming to him; he's tie
fellow who has caused it all and is to blame. To
blame mainly because he thinks the fellow to
elect is the one who will sit up and bark, roll
over, jump through hoop, kiss all the babies
and give you the glad hand at every opportunity.
1t takes about all the time of that class of a
politician to "kid" their constituents and mighty
little time to see what is going on. Again, you
do not like to hurt any ones feelings. Sure not,
but make the atmosphere blue with your wall
ings when you are trying to pass the buck"
and look wise at election time. You're only
passing the buck right back to yourself. We
are all doing it, so why complain unless we are
willing to go in and play our part like the men
and women we claim to be- We don't have to
live under any sort of an administration that We
Go not vote into power by a majority vote. The
commonly called "big interests" of the state are
greatly responsible for our present condition.
They have seemingly overlooked the fact that
the control is worse than Community -of-all-
control with all the cards on the table. The So
called "big interests have lost much more than
they have ever made in attempting to put
things over" We may conscentiously add, they
have not the courage Of their convictions. 1t may
be too, some underlings feel they are Tickling
the boss" with their efforts, but no good boss
possibly better expressed, as the chief or owner,
ever sanctions petty tricks to fool the people for
temporary benefit = he never got where he
got with that sort of tactics

And there came to us a splendid, generous box
or oranges and grape fruit for Christmas from
the Yuma Mesa Orange Ranch, through the
kindly Offices of Judge J. H. Westover, editor Of
the Yuma Sun. The consensus of opinion of the
testers of this delicious fruit is that none bet

the people down Yuma way have been boosting
