GODS TRUE AMERICAN MEN

Chauncey M. Depew is S8 years of age That in itself is not so very remarkable but it is re- markable that all those years have not soured him on the world He has had his share of criticisms in the affairs of men and lived with the big men of his time. He still believes in humanity and in the love of his fellowmen He condones the past and has bright hopes for the future, because of the past There may be a few others not so noted in the affairs of men, who might claim an equal right in their more local environment. One, however, Uncle Joe' Cannon, can match Cha1ncey almost in years and some beyond in the Battles of the Repub- lic.'' Uncle Joe's life lives vividly along with that of Abraham Lincoln and will stand out stronger in years to come The petty political things of his time will pass away as in Lincoln's time, and the whole-hearted Americanism of the man will fill it's proper place in American his tory. It is the fault of political system that he was not made President of the United States. He sizes by and large over many of them, but to him, he knows he served in strenuous time as man should serve and all the honors there might have been for him, were sacrificed on the altar of his country.
 Like Lincoln, he suffered defeat in his dis trict rather than go wrong with the people, But he knew such temporary wrongs would right themselves. They did with big majority. He never was accused of temporizing with a temporary victory. Victory with him meant a permanent victory for the whole people. Right was ever right in his whole method of life. America is gradually coming to trust men of his stamp regardless of all the adverse propaganda the vicious element can command Right IS right and God is with men like Uncle Joe' Cannon.

WHY THERE IS DISRESPECT FOR LAW

Many people are inquiring why there is SO much disrespect for law. The answer is not hard to find. In the first place there are too many laws and there is usually strong sym pathy for person who gets tangled up in them, right or wrong. The vast net work of techni- calities are utterly mystifying to the general average of people, and it is seldom case is tried nowadays without sufficient number of Ger TOTS" to nulify the whole process. The best of lawyers do not seem to be able to "get by" in trying case without the so-called "errors" creeping in to bust up the whole proceedings And, when the people pay heavy string of court cost and prisoner is convicted, he has nine chances in ten of getting out of prison be- fore all the costs in the case have been paid up by the taxpayers. The average citizen who has watched the process of law very long usually throws up his hands and declares: What's the use of it a?" The average citizen wishes to obey the law as far as he knows how, but he does not know how The learned lawyers and high courts disagree, but the poor sucker-aver age citizen-is not excused because of his ignor- ance of the law" It is currently reported that sucker is born every minute and, it might be added that there were dozen laws made for him before he arrived. If more laws actually made more morality this would be the most moral country on earth
The Coconino sun., 1922-05-05
LAWS THAT PROMOTE DISHONESTY

The newly organized business mems credit as- sociation was brought about mainly through the fact that the laws of the state relative to ex- emptions for debt are so enient that it is almost impossible to collect bad debt. The exemptions amount to $4000, also include professional tools, books and such equipment of professional men. In reality the law is working hardship on the honest man and putting premium on beating just indebtedness. The extreme Eberality of the law is it's own undoing, for business men are now organizing with view of refusing credit unless it is made gilt edged and at the expense of the man who secures the credit.
 "Let the banks do the credit business, they protect themselves with security and are paid interest" seems to be the slogan of the mer chants "We are not protected under the laws of the state, therefore must take steps to pro- tect ourselves" they declare Thus law in reality puts premium on dishonesty, and works a hardship to the majority who are honest.
The Coconino sun., 1922-05-05
LITTLE BRAINS-BIG MOUTHS

Anyone who wants to can get his name in the paper these days. All one has to do is to think up some new, utterly absurd, unreasonable or idiotic doctrine and propound it in public. A quarter column is the inevitable reward.
 Thus we have lady who makes an address before school organization and who says that the trouble with America is too many can openers We are suffering because our house. wives don't cook enough food, but depend too much on the canner Wonder if we talk too much over the phone and not enough face to face or travel too much in a train and not enough on horseback, or read too much by cleo tric light and not enough by candle light?
 Comes Chicago lawyer before the country with much publicity because, arguing case be- fore the jury, he contended that no man is real ly sane after he reaches fifty Reminds one strangely of Dr. Oser and chloroform for all men over forty. Why fifty Mr. Lawyer? And what makes men over fifty insane-too many lawyers?
 The real thing the matter with this country, If there is anything the matter with it, is neither too many cans or can openers nor too many insane people of fifty, nor even too many lawyers the real trouble with us all is too many open mouths saying nothing worth hearing.
 No man or woman ever made public address who had not a real opportunity to aid in the spread of knowledge, the increase of education When speakers so misconceive their opportun- ltles as to utter only newspaper publicity getting remarks, 1t IS not only they who speak, but we who listen, who are to blame

SAWYER, DEMOCRAT, FOR GOVERNOR

E. A. Sawyer, the stockman, was in Flagstaff last week for several hours interviewing prom inent democrats and other friends MT. Sawyer is one of the stalwart democratic leaders of the state and it has been suggested in some sections that he may be the compromise candidate for the nomination for governor on the democratic ticket this fall. When questioned concerning the rumors he blushingly denied the impeach- ment, but there were symptoms indicating that the suggestion was not entirely new one to him.
 It is difficult to understand just how sheep man can be good democrat, but Ed never lets his business interfere with his politics, which are of the ld-time Tennessee variety.

THEY FINALLY WENT CRAZY ABOUT
 THEIR EDITOR

which shows how greatly the people of a com- munity in Kansas appreciated their editor: Tn appreciation of the work of Kansas editor for their community a bunch of citizens recently presented him with bouquet. On the same oc- casion quartet from local church sang few sweet songs and minister made little talk. After the minister's talk six husky men carried the popular editor from the house and placed him tenderly in a model 1921 plumed sedan, and the whole town formed in parade behind the editors expensive car. After the parade the ap- preciative crowd returned to their homes serene in the thought of having provided one bright day in the life of their local news purveyor, even if they did wait until he was dead to do it."

The democratic party in Arizona would be in deuce of fix if it wasn't for Bill Stuart edi- tor of the Prescott Courier Bill hasn't won any political victories for his party yet but is willing to- He has about the worst disposition of any dem. editor in the state. When he isn't trying metaphorically, to kick republican on the shins, he is tweaking some pinto democrats nose, all of which points to a stormy political career for Bill. There is such wide variety of the species democraticus in Arizona that it is impossible for them to propagate any plum trees, so what's the use, Bill?

While holding no special brief for the Ku Klux Klan, it would seem that Los Angeles and vicin- ity needed some outside agency to assist the officers in cleaning up the town. The chief of police recently resigned because he could get no help from the people, It's mighty dull day over there when bandits do not hold up one corner or another of the city. The big spread being made against the K. K. Ks may be all jealousy on the part of the duly elected officials resenting interference with their prerogatives
The Coconino sun., 1922-05-05

Pre-dating of newspapers is getting to be a regular fad among certain dailies It may fool a few suckers who do not read much more than date line, but it is just as dishonest as most of the so-called news" their columns must con- tain. If they will deliberately lie about the date of the sheet, who could trust them as to the reliability of the rest of the bunk they print?
The Coconino sun., 1922-05-05

Colorado" means red, and Durango must be the equivalent of Do Wrangle" At least that's where editors kill each other when they run out of personal printed venom. Once in a while down here in Arizona an editor should be killed but he does not stay long enough.

Chairman McCalla, of the state democratic central committee, is out with notice that the democratic party should select their ablest and best men as candidates. We'll, if our democratic brethren have been laying down on the people of the state in the past in this respect what can be expected for the future?
