 Seward People

IES a common error
 To plaster the aching back,
 To rub with liniments, rheumatic joints. ...
 If the trouble comes from the kid neys.

 Here is convincing proof of merit
 Mrs. J. Hug. Main St., Elgin. Ore. says: 'Doan's Kidney Pills are an old standby with me. My kidneys troubled me and had lame and ach ing back. fek tired out and my work often had to go undone. My kidneys did not act right. Deans Kidney Pills always relieve these at tacks and strengthen my back and kidneys. I highly recommend Doan's for kidney complaint"

THE GREAT QUESTION OF WATER

The people of Flagstaff should be very much
interested in the counter proposition made by the
Santa Fe Railway Co. to the city on the proposed
citv water development, as printed in The Sun
last week. The city council desires all citizens to
be advised as to every detail of this most impor-
tant subject in order that they may vote ntelll-
gently on the bond issue, should an agreement be
finally made between the city and the Santa Fe,
It may be readily seen by a perusal OF the Santa
Fes counter proposition, that the company has
no desire to lose any of the advantages hereto
fore enjoyed by them and are keenly alive to the
value of Flagstaff's water supply. Aside from the
quality of the water, which IS the purest and best
more of it. and it is at the1cty springs to develop.
The general impression is that the Santa Fe Is
entitled 20 the same treatment that is accorded
any other industry here If the city pays thers
6 per cent on their money, they are getting re-
turn for the money invested by thenn-lt IS more
than the issue of bonds will pay. We are strong
" of the opinion the Santa Fe viii not stand out
for an unreasonable agreement and will make
terms that will be beneficial to all concerned
The Coconino sun., 1923-10-12
MORE NoRFLEET CITIZENS NEEDED

We are strongly inclined to believe the United
States needs a vast number of citizens like that
fellow named Frank Norfleet of Hale Center, Tex.
In 1919 a bunch of bunco men numbering about
six in the gang, buncoed Norfleet out of 10000.
Did Norfleet just weep, wall and demand Justice
from all officers in his section of the world? lie
did not Norfleet laid down his job of broncho
busting and branding-of calves and started out on
the trail of that gang He traced them to all sec
tions of the country, busted up several gangs,
has about thirty all told including lesser lights, IN
iai and just the other day landed the last one OF
his pet six in JAIL then went to sleep happy after
nearly five years of desperate labor which nearly
cost him his life several time
Not all victims of crooks can take on job like
that, but if they would put up more than merely
a wall and demand that officers do it, better re-
suits would be attained. Too many people have
no interest in helping enforce the laws of the land
until they themselves are victims. They forget
it is part of their job as good citizens to help
rid the country of crooks in their own interest as
well as that of the general public.

p. r. BARNUM'S ESTIMATE UNDER
ESTIMATED

What this country most ''hones" for is more
third parties. The country is full of three-cor-
ner-brained politicians. They have been neglected
by the two great parties because they never de-
liver anything but noise and more noise - more
words, big words and more words. They are
against constructive work and always fall down
when given any responsible work to do. The batch
of the ilk La Toilette, Hi Johnson, Senator Lunk-
head of Iowa and Willie Hearst are so inflated
with ego that "I-go" is their whole life story. 1t
is all well and good for these self-lnflated balloon
lists to stir up the atmosphere but drat EN-, they
should not be elected by either the democratic or
republican party and then be permitted to "bore
from within" 1t is true that political party is
made up of a great mass of people who may not
all agree in detail, but whose general trend of
thoughts along the same line Political buns
with wholly selfish interests get into parties. 1t
they can't promote their own self interests they
blow UP. They are their own political party. This
clement are only one grade higher than the soap
box orator, but their intent and purposes are all
the same. They are all Washingtons, Jeffersons
and Grants and admit it freely, fervently, full
somely and frequently.
Most of this ilk only want power to cruelty
their enemies.
The great big men of America were big because
of their unselfish devotion to America-men who
were big enough to carry on with brave heart,
approving friend or personal foe SO long as his
purpose was the welfare of our common country.
The great regrettable fact is that our country
men are prone to fall for the sophistries of the
mountebank politician to the detriment of our
nation-because honest men won't lie consequent
ly they are handicapped when they are proposed
for office
ssP. t. Barnum right, except his percentage
of Sucker born every minute" was an under

HALF-TAXED-HALF UNTAXED

Advocates of public ownership schemes use as
one of their strongest arguments, the statement
that the state, counties cities can borrow
money cheaper than private companies because
their bonds are ''tax-exempt." In addition public
property pays no taxes
The income from some $4,000, ,000 900 of such
tax exempt bonds now goes tax free and the rest
of us pay additional taxes to make up this loss to
the government.
If public ownership was extended to various
lines of industry as advocated by two constitu-
tional amendments proposed in Georgia, the tax
assessment roll would shrink and the burden of
taxation on remaining taxable property would
grow heavier and heavier city, county and state
functions were enlarged
Advocates of public ownership will find that it
will be impossible in this country to maintain the
right of private property for half the people while
taking over under public ownership the property
of the other half.
Ultimately we would face situation where the
principal business of those holding office would
be how to collect tax revenue from those not hold
ing office in order to meet the public payroll.

HELPING THE DEMOCRATS

Of course Col. Breen could have the republican
nomination for governor should he consent to ac-
cept but that does not solve the problem of who
will be the democratic candidate. There is plenty
of available timber of quality that will insure a
democratic victory next year, as usual, says the
Douglas international.
Well just to help out we nominate Hon. E. E.
EinWood, formerly Of Bisbee, now of Phoenix A
number of good democrats have had his name in
view for some time as well as for the United
States senate but there may be some complica-
ticns now with Gov. Hunts hat in the air ready
to land in the ring. The governor appointed FL
linwood chancellor of the university regents,
which may have been long-sighted move on the
part of the governor to sidetrack him. Some idle
thinkers might say ,Ellinwood mining at
torney, consequently not as available as some
others might be- Not at all. He is a good Ari-
duties to make the mines come through. If we
have to have democratic governor, why not pick
good one?

LAZY EDITORS TO BLAME

Do you know we have sneaking idea that
Charlie StauffeE, general manager of the Arizona
Republican, struck the real inside heart of the
average newspaper mans trouble with the highly
paid press agent hired to swipe newspaper space
for his employers, when he said that his paper
proposed to see that their men covered the news
in such manner that it would not be necessary
for his paper to accept press agent stuff from
press agent. He did not say it in SO many words
but reading between the lines it meant press
agent stuff gets over just because too many 81,
called newspaper men are too darned lazy to
look after their own field and are willing to ac-
capt any old junk to fill up space"
If a publisher is too Internally lazy ard does not
care what happens to his outfit, why shouldn t
the industrious and well paid press agent utilize
him?

PRAISE FOR W0MEN's CLUB

A handsome Spanish-colonial building is being
built in Flagstaff for the home of the Woman's
club. That about measures the progress of Flag
staff from the old log cabin lumber camp days
Ell Paso Herald.
We venture to assert to both hemispheres the
authenticity of the above very correct statement.
The women of Flagstaff are entitled To great
credit for their hard work and continued energy
until success crowned their efforts The women
of Flagstaff are just as eager and enthusiastic
over the progress of the city the men. 1t is an
unbeatable combination

Phoenix is all swelIed up over their union sta
tion. Over $4,000 people went through it, accord
ing to report of Phoenix newspapers. Now if the
Santa Fe ever has to detour couple of trains
down that way she viii think she is on the main
line. Well, whether we want to or not, the first
place Flagstaff shows people coming in on trains
is our union de-pot--our front door. 1T seems to
impress, the visitors very much with our climate
and it is only when the thermometer registers 10
below zero here that any one uses it only long
enough to hand over their money Some visitors
confuse it with the Cliff Dwellings until some To-
cal resident corrects the impression Our people
have nothing against the cliff dwellers.

ALMOST REPEATED

Of two friends staying at a hostel
ry where most keys fit most doors,
one went off to bed, undressed and
turned in, mistal1ing his friends room
for his own. Half an hour later the
friend followed, saw his bed occupied,
and returned to the coffee room.
"Did you see me go to my room
just now" he said to the night por-
ter.
Eyes, sir" was the reply.
"Well, then, why didn't you tell me
I'd gone to bed already" he grunted
and continued to finish the night on
chair in front of the fire.

You just can't please some people, The slayer
of Pancho Villa was sentenced to twenty years
in the penitentiary and now wants the 100000
pesos reward the government offered for Pancho
dead or alive. It looks as though the fellow was
legally entitled to the reward too. Again this
seems like mighty poor finance on the part of the
government, for they had him alive and by watch
ful and patient waiting, could have had him dead
within hundred years or less.
