LIVESTOCK AND RANGES

PHOENIX. Jan. 19-Special tele-
graphic reports to the weather bu-
reau indicate that the week has been
a favorable one for stock. precipita
ton was confined to the southeastern
part of Arizona and ranged IRON light
TO moderate amounts in the form Of
rain. Owing to cool nights in the
Grand Canyon section snow disap-
peared very slowly and there still re-
manned one inch on the ground at
the close of the week Conditions in
the southern counties as to range AID
stock continue good. In the For:
Apache and Pinedale sections cattle
are said TO be doing well and the wa
ter supply is reported as plentiful.
Water is scarce in the Pinto section.
Sheep are reported as doing well in
all sections.
Crop Progress in Arizona
All farm activities have been fav-
ored by somewhat warmer and fair
conditions that have prevailed rener
ally over the State. Cotton picking is
practically completed but there Ie-
main a number of fields not picked
clean which will probably remain as
they are owing to present prices of
cotton. Cold nights have continued
and have been favorable for lettuce,
the quality of which continues to be
excellent The absence OF decidedly
cold weather has encouraged the
early planting OF potatoes and the
preparation of the soil and seeding
for larger crop than usual is in pro-
gress. An unusually large quantity
of grape fruit and oranges intended
for local consumption remains on the
trees in the Salt River Valley and its
quality has been greatly improved by
the cool weather that has not been
cold enough to damage the fruit.

Hope in Conscientious Newspapers

SPEAKING of the bitter opposition on the part of
~ certain metropolitan newspapers to the pending
tariff bill, Senator McCUMBER said in the senate:
"When these newspapers began to see the light
was when the importing interests of the country
began to see that some of their enormous profits
would have to be divided with the governmental
leasN a little portion of them. Then they saw the
matter just as the advertisers saw it." That ex-
plains, in Senator McCUMBER's opinion, one reason
for the opposition. A newspaper which is favored
with many thousands of dollars worth of adver
Using from importing interests is apt to side with
them when they start a campaign of publicity to de
feat a protective tariff bill. The editor OF. that
paper, or its owner, may be a staunch protection
list at heart, but the prospect of withdrawal of ad-
~vertising on the part of these big importing houses
brings forcibly before him the question as to
whether he will continue his paper at a profit or at
a loss, and human nature is human nature. How
ever, when the bill becomes a law the advertising
will in all probability continue and the resulting
prosperity of domestic concerns will increase the de-
mands for advertising space. But in the battle
for the protective policy the country and small city
are the most loyal and effective me-
diums of tariff expression. They are not coerced
by importing combinations.

Chinese Lie

There's no chop suey In China" states
one who has passed through Chinese
gates
OF the ancient Chinese wall.
And we who abide on the nearer side
of even the ocean admitted widel
Are wondering at It all.
The romantic dreams of our yesteryear
Have flown like a sparrow winged
with fear
Till it's lost in the eastern blue,
And the hope that at sometime we
would eat
Chinese chop suey in a Chinese street
Have quickly vanished too.
But. oh, the cruelty of the lie
Which led us to think that II we'd try
We could eat what the Chinese did.
How often we've emptied the doubt
full dish
That made US sick-with the frequent
wish
That we knew the mystery hid.
Perhaps twas the chopped up tails of
cats
Mixed with the whirring wings OF bats;
Perhaps twas a rattier's meat;
Perhaps there was garlic in II too;
II we'd only known what the Chink
cook knew
We might not have thought It sweet.

Eternal Vigilance

A GRAVE DANGER to American institutions is
1 seen i'll the apathy shown by citizens toward
voting, legislation and public affairs generally. If
the citizen takes no interest, the politician and his
henchmen never fail to take a hand. They are con.
stantly evolving plans to separate taxpayers fror,
their money and the rates of increase in taxes and
the growth of bonded Indebtedness of cities, towns.
counties and states indicate how successful they
are. 1t should be sufficient warning to the average
citizen to interest himself i'll the affairs that concern
him as closely as his private affairs possibly could.
1t is incumbent upon all loyal citizens if they
would attract industries and wealth TO their states
and cities to prevent them from becoming centers
of freak legislation and communities of unnecessar-
lily high taxes.
The sound sense of the American public cannot
be questioned, but our progress must depend to a
large degree upon the awakening of public conf
dence, the arousing of the old American spirit, de-
votion to duty as citizens and to the giving of com
plete force to expression of the will of the majority.
Shelf-worn as the expression may seem to YOU
who do not pause to consider its meaning, External
vigilance is the price of enduring ~liberty.n
