The Emaneinated Cat

We learn from the Clifton Copper Era that the
Democratic primary campaign is going to be
momentous thing than supposed 1t is not to be
one of those usual conflicts of the factions with
which we have become familiar It's results are
to be international. The whole structure of our
government is imperiled and would Re-
publicans that they will be involved in the ruin if
ruin comes.
Listen here from the Copper Era in blackface
The cat is out OF the bag.
The issue in the primary will be clean
Is the Democratic party in Arizona to be
a one-man party owned by one man?
Shall the Democratic party be compelled
to worship at the throne of the King of Siam?
And the Copper Era might have added to its
startling list of nterrogatories: is the White Ee
phant to dispace the time-honored jackass the
insignia of the Democratic party?'
Until we had been given the foregoing view of
the cat escaping from the bag we had been able to
suppress excitement the factonal scrap in the
Democratic party. We cared, thouht we cared
nothing at all about any possible in the Demo-
cratic primary. It made not pennyworth's differ
ence to us whether the Democratic party was to
be a one man party and that man Geo. w. p.

But we'll be darned if we're going to worship at
the throne of the King of Siam bow down before
any white elephant We want to say too, in this
connection white elephants not really white
but dirty gray.
We supposed when former Governor Hunt left
Siam left for good, loose from all relations
with that effetist of all effete monarches. But it
appears left with secret understanding with
King Chao Fa Maha vajiravudh. (And what
name for an American to Worship Wen bet that
neither Mr.. Hunt the king himself can pro-
nounce IT'D
And the former governor has come back home
pretending to have retired from public life only to
lull us into inaction the while he is scheming to
annex us despotic Siam 1t is true that the Copper
Era has been informed that it is only the Democrats
that the former governor wants to make Samese
of. But that doesn't reassure To Arizona
he must all of
That's the real issue of the campaign. And we
hereby rescind and set aside the injunction which
we have laid upon all good Republicans against
taking part in the Democratic primary The issue is
one that concerns us ALL It's bigger than the tariff;
it's bigger than the primary; bigger than the con-
sttuton of Arizona It's the biggest thing there
ever was. We're against the White Elephant, much
as we hate to be thrown into association with the
donkey in the struggle make democracy safe in

THE COMET

tennis matches again)
/ wish could him
A gentleman brave in gentlemans sport;
The dashingest, smashingest bundle of
That has lifted a racket TO
wish he'd back with his pep and his vim
That made you just sit up and holler for him;
/ wish could see him once more at his best
That red headed Comet from out of the west.
His game wasn't perfect--his backhand weak,
But, boy, when in action he played like streak!
Remember his service? His volleying, too?
The zippiest features the game knew.
And then there something-his manner, his grin
That started you hoping and praying he'd win,
yell till the buttons flew off of my vest
To the old Comet out of the vest
Mclaughlin, Mclaughlin, come back to the game!
You fought like wildcat, you burned like flame;
Though tennis stars brilliantly dazzle and shine
There's none with radiance equal to thine.
For you gave tennis glanor thrill
That nobody else gave it-or will;
Come back to Morrie, with all your old zest
You red headed Comet from out of the west

Politics Assumes Importance

, senatorial contests for many reasons.
In the first place, they together with
Indiana and Pennsylvania, will be
| staged in the most important states
OF the Union. Secondly, the senate is
! the greatest parliamentary body in
| the world today. 1t deals directly not
| only with the most vital problems OF
| the American people, but with those
of great internationaI moment, and
| its personnel is important.
Moreover, some big men are in
volved. Lodge of Massachusetts is the
Republican leader of the senate and
the chairman of the committee on for
| eign relations: McCumber of North
| Dakota is the chairman of the great
committee on finance which has juris-
| dietion over tariff making and taxa
| ton; LaFollette of Wisconsin has
| long been the stormy petrol of the
senate and of Republican national
| politics; and Johnson of California,
| once Progressive nominee for vice
| president and more recently candi-
| cate for Republican presidential hon.
| ors, looms large from any political
| viewpoint.
Interest in Missouri Struggle
On the Democratic side, Culberson
| of Texas is one of the veterans of the
senate: and Hitchcock of Nebraska,
! Pomerene of Ohio, and Williams of
| Mississippi are recognized minority
| leaders. Reed of Missouri, in the
fight he is making to retain his seat,
probably arouses more interest than
any of the Democrats.
! Reed is opposed for the Democratic
nomination by Breckenridge Long,
| former assistant secretary of state
under the Wilson administration.
Long is young man without a not
| able political record, and cannot be
said 10 be a figure of national size.
However, the Missouri struggle is of
general interest and of national inn
| portance because of the fight which
Reed made in the senate against most
| of the Wilson policies. especially the
Wilson league of nations program,
and because of the fight which Wood
row Wilson is now making to defeat
Reed The former president may not
1 have injected himself into this fight,
| but he has been drawn into it, and he
/ has done everything that the use OF
| vigorous, unmistakable language can
do to bring about Reeds retirement to
/ private life.
/ The returns from the Missouri pri-
mary of August /, therefore, Will be
| scanned eagerly by all those who are
concerned to know Just how much of
a hold Woodrow Wilson still has on
| the Democratic party. A new epoch
| in the history of Democracy may date
/ from that event, and il is certain that
| the result will have an important
| bearing on Democratic presidential
policies of 1924.
! After the nominations have been
made interest will be focused, of
course on the November battle of the
| ballots when the political complexion
/ of the next congress will be deter
mined In Importance this election
ranks with two other notable off
year contests-1910 and 1918. In the
| former the Republicans went down

Very shortly after the noon hour of
the same day monday the attic or
storeroom of the home of Mr.. and Mrs
Henry Bray, on Front street. second
ward was discovered TO be on fire. The
flames spread rapidly to the roof, which
was almost totally burned.
Tie timely arrival and the good work
of the fire company saved the remainder
of the large residence from destruction
Energetic and willing neighbors and
friends succeeded in getting out the
bulk OF the furniture and household eff
fects and conveying them to neighbor
ing homes, but bedding. rugs, books
and everything which the attic con-
tanned were devoured by the red fiend.
The interior of the home was badly
damaged in various ways, principally
by water, which could not be avoided,
and the same will have to be re painted,
re plastered and re-papered quite gem
orally. # will be some time before
the smc will be ready for occupancy.
Oifgin of the fire is an uncertainty.
The loss quite heavy.
