ALL STACK ARMS AT ARMIsTICE

The Miami Silver Belt, commenting on the
meeting of the Arizona Daily Newspaper asso-
ciation in that city says:
"a striking illustration of the value of organ
izations of the heads Of kindred businesses will
be afforded the state when the editors and man
ager of the daily newspapers of Arizona meet in
annual convention in Miami Monday.
THAT the bloody political and economic
hatchets of the various communities will be
buried, at least for the time being, is conclusive
ly proven by letters and kilograms being receiv-
ed by the Daily Silver Belt. AS witness:

editorial broadsides from the Douglas Internal

EXPOSED TO A NEW DEPOT

If proposed new Santa Fe depot for Flag
staff was smallpox, we'd all have the disease,
since we have been Exposed" TO it SO long. The
idea has been in the budget" for fifteen years.
The terrible trouble seems to be that with all the
twenty acres of station grounds and right of way
given them by the government, they can't find
a darned place to put depot to accommodate
the patrons, though they have found place to
put the cash the patrons donate to help develop
other places and depots. The germ down where
the trains are allowed to stop to pick up money,
is tracked all around, steel and human. It is
blocked much of the time with trains against
ordinances We don't blame the railroad since
the railroad and the city have grown up togeth-
er. But there is no reason why the city of Flag
staff should be compelled to wear short pants
until the Santa Fe, already in long pants, tells
us we, can have EN-.
There is a proposition that the Santa Fe wants
to close few more north and south streets be-
fore they can build a new depot. That's pure
bunk The city of Flagstaff is willing and ready
to play any sort of an honest game with the
Santa Fe officias-give and take for mutual
benefit.
All that Flagstaff needs now is to get the ear
of the Santa Fe authorities that now be and are.
Flagstaff has only been fighting to get an
honest Santa Fe EAR. If the Santa Fe officials
cannot find out where Flagstaff is located, it is
up to the people of Flagstaff to point the place
out on the map.

BOUND FOR CONVERSION

A party of clergymen were attend

eral of them set off to explore the

Presently they came to a river,
spanned by temporary bridge. Not
observing a notice that the structure
was unsafe, they started to cross it.
Thereupon the bridge keeper ran after
them in protest.

I'm no caring about that" was the
reply, "but if ye dinna get off the

Our democratic friends do not seem to be able
to understand that a discussion of political con-
ditions among republicans does not mean split
in the party, but an honest desire to arrive at
some definite conclusion as to the best policy
for the welfare Of the country. The democrats
were under the rubber stamp rule Of President
Wilson so long that they can't realize the need
of freedom of speech.
