Thanksgiving

The country is in a mood for Thanksgiving than it was a year ago in the depth of depression; more than two years ago when realized that we were sliding down hill; more than three years ago when an epidemic sweeping the country and filling the cemeteries of the nation and more than four years ago. our first Thanksgiving in the World 
 We have been given to comparing our various situations since 1914 with what call pre-war ditions-conditions whose rough outlines of which we then complained have been softened by inter- venng mists of years. We have forgotten that then complained. Mans present lot is always harder than his past.
 We and the rest of the world have gone through a period of suffering In whatever situation have been left. it is for thanksgiving that we are through But our situation is not bad We are surely the upgrade The look downward toward the bottom where we year ago is long one. The look upward toward the top, then so far away, is short one.
 Unemployment is decreasing rapidly. The bread lines are shortening the prospects for the coming year are ever brightenng. Our relations with the world are more pleasant than they have ever been and our position in the world is nearly assured
 The dream of a universal and perpetual peace which civilized men dreamed for centuries, is apparently nearer of realization The nations have come together for first time in all history in spirit of amity. Hitherto they had met in peace they had met in war conquest; each to seek some advantage at the cost of another. Now they have come only to effect arrangement which will be equally advantageous to all
 That alone is supreme for thankfnness today

WASHINGTON, D. C.. Nov. A. That there are but two world DOW CTS, and that the Washington con- ference is really an effort to reach an agreement beween these two, which will stabilize internal relations enough to permit the reduction of naval ar maments, is the view held by many of the best informed observers.
 The two powers, of course. are the United States and Great Britain. France and Italy are powers in Eu- rope, but in their present condition neither of them can alone exert a decisive influence upon world af- fairs. Japan is the one Asiatic pow CT, but she is not a world power if she stands alone. Her important part in the international affairs of the last 20 years has been made possible by her alliance with England.
 The public is prone to regard the conference as an effort to make war impossible by agreements for the re- duction of armaments to the point where the nations will not be able to fight. As a matter of fact, disarma- ment is a minor phase of the confer- ence. Militar. disarmament prob ably will not ever be discussed. Na- val ornaments will at most be linn d burdens of taxation and perhaps pave the way for further reduction at some future time. But such a reduction would not make was impossible or even much more improbable than it now is.
 There are in the world certain for ces of military and economic impe- rialism which make for war. They are present in all of the countries rep resented at the conference except China. But in some other countries they are more clearly dominant than in others. To curb these forces is the real object of the conference or at least it's best hope of taking a step toward insurlng peace. The confer ence will be another great exhibition of diplomatic horse trading, like the meeting at Versailles, but it need not be as futile as that one was. It can- not hope to make war impossible. It is even among the possibilities that it will precipitate a war. But it is also among the possibilities that il will be a set back for imperialistic ambition in several quarters, that ii will check naval building and that il will establish an equilibrium in world affairs which will make another wal improbable for a long time. During the time the reVulSlon or men agdlHSl war, which has been slowly growing since the Middle Ages, will have 6 chance to grow stronger still. The growth of this feeling Is the only thing that can ever really prevent war. Governments inevitably make wars, but when the common man re- fuses to fight them or to pay fol them, the governments will be dis armed, indeed.

 Only & very short time ago both making a terrible noise about auto mobiles and the various kinds of lights they did and did not have. Have you heard anything about it in the last month?
 Last night on my way home counted g cars with glaring head lights and made it my object to find out if they had dinners on the lamps, but there was not one that found, and one peculiar thing that I noticed was that they were all of the larger and more expensive make of cars.
 If a man is able to buy car of that kind, wouldn't you think he would have enough more money on hand that would allow him to invest the few dollars necessary to pur- chase a pair of dinners?
 1 cant for the life of me see how Roy Gardner is any more of a crim- inal than are these parties who are breaking the state and city laws and ordinances every time they drive with the lights on and no dimmers on their lamps.
 The officers make us poor Henry drivers put them on our lamps, so why can't they make the swells put them on their big buses?
 If they would arrest one of them and put him with Roy the rest of them would very soon find a way to properly equip their cars.

A TWO POWER CONFERENCE.

imperialistic or warmaking feeling is most clearly dominant is Japan. That fact is recognized and admitted upon all sides. Japan has enforced her win in Manchuria and Siberia. She has seized Shantung and imposed her 21 points upon China. These moves are clearly the beginning of a course of economic and military imperialism in Asia which would inevitably cause another war sooner or later. Furth- errnore, this course on the part of Japan is inimical to the United States because this country is committed to a policy of maintaining the open door
 (equal economic opportunity for all nations) in China and of insuring China's national integrity and auton- omy. This policy is embodied in the
 Hay doctrine. It has been assented to by practically all of the other na-
 tions in words. but it has been vio-
 lated by all of them in deeds, and
 especially by Japan with the sup
 port of Great Britain. The United
 States must either check this vio-
 lation of her traditional policy with
 regard to China or else she must
 withdraw entirely from the Pacific,
 leaving China to her fate.
 There are some pacificts who ap- pear to favor the latter course. They say that is the United States dis armed and withdrew from the inter- national struggle other nations would eventually follow suit. But this is rather hard to prove. It seems more probable that if the United States withdrew her influence from the Orient she would merely leave it an open field for imperialistic ambitions of other nations, and that she would
 eventually have to encounter this imperialism when it was much
 stronger than it is today.
 If then the United States is to re-
 main factor in the Pacific it is
 clear that the chief force with which
 she has to contend is the imperialism
 of Japan, supported by Great Britain.
 It is of the utmost importance that the American public should under stand these facts. But nothing would be more unfortunate than for that understanding to create feeling against either Japan or Great Britain. There are liberal and -militarist forces in Japan just as there are in Great Britain. Likewise there are militaristic and imperiaHstic forces | in the United States. The situation l should be regarded as a struggle of liberal forces in all countries against l war making forces in all countries 1 The Japanese who is liberal and wants peace and disarmament is an | ally of the American in the same | frame of mind. And with regard to i Japan it must be remembered that | Japans whole rise in the world has l been by war, and that she owes her very existence as a nation to her army and navy. She is the only na- 1 ton in Asia that has not been over whelmed and exploited by the Euro peans. She has preserved her integ- rity by toting a gun and sine knows it. It cannot be a matter for surprise

ABOUT THE STATE
RepIaea conv;c. I,ho,.,.

MIAMI - Paid white labor is to take the place of convict labor on the new Miami Superior highway. according to word just brought to Miami by men formerly employed on the highway. The prison fund. stated to be s60,000, which was to be used on the convict labor. Is said to have been exhausted. and paid laborers are to be hired to do the work for merly done by the convicts.
 At one time it is said that more than one hundred convicts were en- ployed, these are to be supplanted by about ITO paid white laborers. All of the convicts, with the exception of few trusties, have been returned to the peniteutiary. These trusties are to be kept only a short while to clean up the camp. when they too, will be returned to Florence
 A number of the guards employed to watch the convicts at work. have been laid off, only a very few guards remain to watch the property.-Bul- letin.
 To Open Mines
 P R E $ c O T T. Preparations for work are being made in several of the mining districts of the north, it was reported here yesterday by Deputy State Mine Inspector Matt Hall. who returned yesterday after noon from a trip to the Kingman, Oatman and White Hills districts Journal Miner.
 To Build Mission House
 YUMA-The policy of economy with the bureau of Catholic Indian missions has caused the fathers To- cated on the local reservation to have to suffer many inconveniences, but the attendance has so outgrown the old church that it becomes necessary to enlarge or construct It has been decided to build a new mission, which will be a credit to Yuma and the res ervation. Funds have been raised and the plans or an imposing struc- ture have been made and a contractor from Phoenix is expected this week.
 The prominent point directly in front of the highway bridge crossing to the California side has been select ed as the site and the view from this hill of the surrounding country is not excelled.-Sun.

 MBSTONE-County School Su- perintendent Miss Helen Brown has started an innovation in her office beginning this week. During her travels about the county, visiting the various school districts. Miss Brown saw the need of a bulletin in order to keep all sections of the county posted on what the other districts were dO- ing.
 The first bulletin. No. l. was mailed Monday and contains wealth of information regarding number of schools visited during the first part of the month. The bulletin will be issued monthly.-Prosuector.

then that she is not quick to lay down that gun.
 AngIo-Jap Alliance
 None-the-le world peace depends largely upon the renunciation by Ja- Asia generally and in China in par ticular. These ambitions are made possible largely by her alliance with Great Britain. If this alliance comes to an end the militaristic party in Japan will be weakened, and with out losing anything that is rightfully hers. Japan will probably be forced to adopt a foreign policy less menace ing to her neighbors and to the peace of the world.
 It is clear then that a leading ob ject of the conference for the United States is to prevent a renewal of the Anglo Japanese alliance. It is here, in the opinion of experts, that our diplomacy will be tested. The al liance will probably be explained as one that does not in any way menace our interests. It is probable, too, that we will be invited to join it, making it a triple alliance.
 The Anglo Japanese alliance has been an extremely profitable relation for both the principals. They will not give it up without a struggle. But the best informed opinion in this country is that American interests de- mand a complete divorcement of British and Japanese interests, and a definite alignment of Great Britain behind American Pacific policy.
 It should not be forgotten that in ternational agreements often have clauses which are not published, and and sometimes work out in ways that could scarcely be deduced from their wording. It seems probable that American diplomacy and American public opinion should stand firmly against any sort of Anglo Japanese alliance, regardless of its wording or of its projected inclusion of this coun- try By reason of her financial strength alone, America is in a po- sition to enforce her point of view, if her representatives are shrewd enough. American diplomacy was outwitted at Versailles. It has been outwitted at least once since then. Undoubtedly there are many persons who expect it to be outwitted again in Washington.

of MT George Harvey to represent America at the Court of St. James The Independent then recognized
 certain trait responsibility that had been dis played the journalistic career of Colonel Harvey, but hoped that the great responsibilities of his new position would have sobering effect and that his long and varied poitictl experience would teach him the value of team work in his relations with the department of state. The Independent also hoped that Colonel Harvey's natural gifts and personal charm would make him persona grata in London and that his shrewdness and quick wit would make him a valuable asset.
 The Independent admits that it should have "coppered" Harvey that the qualities of shrewdness and quick and ready wit have made him the greater the friendly relations between America and Great Britain.
 The Independents estimate of Colonel Harvey is put under paraphrase of a caption of one of Mark Twain's stories, "A Yankee Colonel at King Georges Court' The evidence it adduces of Colonel Harvey menace has long since ceased matter-hs Pilgrim Day address and his more recent reply Lord Derby's friendly sugges tion of a formal alliance between the two great English speaking nations.
 It is characteristic of Colonel Harvey to say what he thinks, and If he say anything he bound to say what he did say. He could have in- dulged both occasions in polite fctions which he knew would have been empty and meaningless, and would be so understood be by his British hearers
 We have heard of no British criticism of either of the speeches of MT. Harvey. If the British took no offense none should be taken on this side We suspect that the British found the brusqueness and frankness of Colonel Harvey. It gave them thrill akin that which the Connecticut Yankee municated to King Arthurs Court
 But Colonel Harvey, carrying athe curse of unstanched speech" like WaIi Dad delivered no surprising information to the British though they might have been surprised that chose to deliver it at all.
 have always supposed that the state depart ment knew at any rate that the president knew what Colonel Harvey would be likely to say tain subjects on public occasions when those all other Americans what Col oriel Harvey thought about those things
 We think. too, that Colonel Harvey understood his audiences and that while not forgetting his posi- ton of ambassador, he speaking in his proper person late editor of the North American Review editor of the late Harvey's Weekly his conduct in both of which capacities had been dorsed by his appointment
 What Colonel Harvey has accomplished as bassador do not knew in detail if at all We do know that there untoward marks of friend Her relation between this country Great Britain than there previous to his ministrations good deal of frction.s and irritation the part kindly touch of time by apparently rough mas saging manhandling by Colonel Harvey who knows that British sportsmanship is averse to coddling

No Trace of Missing Man

BISBEE-Although officers and ranchers conducted a wide search yesterday of the country surround- ing the Homer Fike ranch near Naco, no trace was found of John Nelson, Risbee miner. who disappeared from the ranch Tuesday morning. The fact that a shotgun was missed at the ranch following the disappear ance of Nelson, and reports that he appeared Respondent, have convinced officers that he probably went away with the inteetion of ending his nie. Nelson had been resident of Blsoee for about 25 years.-Review.
