THE ADVANCE GUARD OF CIVILIZATION

At best isn't this the funniest, oddest and
stranpest old world 1? In spite OF all the wonder
ful things that have happened during the past
forty or fifty years. how prone are the people to
"strain at a qnat and swallow a camel To some
the world is stiT 'shel bent for destruction. The
best efforts of the best minds the world has ever
known seem to teach nothing to the vast major
ity. They go on in their pltiful small personai
way The past 100, SO, 25 and even ten or i've
wears seems to have all been passed up and they
are wondering just how soon the 'fhun universe is
gong to bust up in a grand smash. This little
soliloauy is occasioned by a copy of The Inland
Printer published in Chicago, October l88S--
forty years ago. One of the original editorials
contains so much of the same sort of pess1mlstlc
beliefs as are heard today, only moved back 40
years as to common viewpoint of the general pub
lie of that day. and, forgetting all that has inter
veaed since that time; that they are most Iner-
estIng Just a few quotations show the 1lenes OF
thought then.
HA few wears ago there were those claiming tic
be well Informed on scientific matters who assert
ed that the field of electricity had been thorough
ly searched and that no more useful appliances
were likely to be discovered Scarcely nad bhe
words left their mouths before electric lights and
telephones began to be talked about, and now we
are ready to believe that we have just entered
the border of this wonderland" just imagine
what has happened in this field since that time
Then again: IF we are to believe the lnfo1lna-
tion lately received the art of printing is about
the antieipations of their inventors are realized,
will work a revolution. man in Chicago claims
to have almost perfected machine that will en-
tirely dispense with type setting Ii 1t We're

vention be perfected small article, IN appear

Dositors at as many cumbersome cases be super
seded by this parlor ornament manipulated by a
single pair of skilfully trained hands. Typos,
however need not be alarmed. A score OF years
NAV not find this machine what it's friends hope
to make it, These machines are in nearly every
country shop today.
The same story can be told OF all the trades ana
professions in the world It may go on until the
end of time, in fact, we are inclined TO think 1t
will. The advance guard will always have to slow
up for the slowest element of the vast army OF
the world but the idea may help the laggards to
a more optimistic view of life and help to sweIthe
numbers of the advance guard.

HUGHES LANGUAGE PLAIN

1t is quite apparent that the suggestion of Sec
retary Hughes for the appointment OF commits
sion to study Germanys ability to pay reparatlons
is To be made the occasion for new drive to get
the United States government involved IN Euro
pean affairs and for the cancellation OF some OF
the allied debts to this country. The effort Will
fail, Just as similar campaigns in the past have
broken down. The people of the United States
have come to understand thoroughly the debt sit
uation-under what circumstances the money was
loaned the unqualified promises to repay and the
enormous additional burden that American tax
PAYERS are assuming because Of foreign delln-
Quencies They also are fully aware OF their for
ttllate avoidance of dangers in the Genoa confer
ence the Brussels parley, the Lausanne meeting.
the invitation to subdue the Turks the suggestion
that we stop the French from entering the Ruhr,
and all the other diplomatic contr1vances that
have been arranged for American ENHANCEMENT
No palmer language could have been used by
Secretary Hughes in his reply to Lord Curzon. de
emphasized the fact that the debts owing to the
United States were separate transactions, not re-
lated in any way to the amount of reparatlons
that Germany can pay He also made it clear
that while eminent American citizens could doubt
less be found who would serve on the investlgat-
ing commission, this government could not under
take their selection or appointment and could not
be responsible in any way for decisions they
might render

THE DOOR TENDER

When the general inspected an ar
tillery outfit of colored negro soldiers
in France he was struck by the snap
py neatness and soldierly bearing OF
one particular member of a gun team
seWhat are your duties, soldier =
inquired the commander-in-chief.
Use the doah tender to the Swash-
ohng Kans," the lad replied.

asked him.
"Why, / jus opens de little doah in

BRIGHT PROSPECTS FOR MORE WATER

Many who have been interested IN the develop
rnent of greater water supply for Flagstaff have
thought of the possibilities of the Schulz Pass
canyon It is natural dam site and would store
a hundred million gallons of water, if the soil
would hold it. The city Council, from superficial
inspection of the sidewalks, believe that the in
spection so far made warrant thorough lnvesta-
cation of the basin in which the water would be
retained, by the best experts obtalnable The San
ia Fe has wasted hundreds of thousands of dollars
along the line in this section by putting in dsfns
first and seeing the water leak out afterwards
Flagstaff can not afford any such experiments,
but it can we'll afford to pay four or five thousand
dollars making an exhaustive investigation OF the
grounds. If this project can be put through sue
cessfully Flagstaff will not only save couple of
hundred thousand at the start off, but be able to
put in the larger water mains, thus protect the
city in outlying districts from fire, secure the
needed additional water supply, be able to keep
within our bond limit and best of all, pay for the
improvements from water rentals.
The Santa Fe company seems to have very little
interest in the additional water supply except just
as it affects them, and have delayed the whole
proposition since early last spring and have yet
made no reasonable answer to the city council on
the original proposition.
1t is not probable that the city viii have to
await any action of the Santa Fe or consider them
in the building of the new dam, but will be able to
go ahead with water development unhampered
by vexations and unWarranted delays OF the rail-
road company

RIGHT UP TO DATE

An old soldier of one Of the army
poses was very much impressed BY
some Of the modern procedures in the
medical department. One day, gath
ering about him bunch of recruits
and seating himself on an upturned
galvanized iron bucket he expounded
the situation as follows:
"Things is gettin' great; nowadays
when you take on (enlist), the doc
tors round you up and scratch your
arm-no more smallpox; then they
shoot some bugs into you-no more
typhoid fever; then they shoot some
more bugs into you--no more pneu-
monia. By-and-by, they'll tattoo a
pork chop and fried egg on you
and there you are--rationed for your
hitch"

OUR CUB OFFICE BOY WRITES
LIP A GAME

The game opened with Molasses at
the stick and Smallpox catching. Ci-
gar was in the box with plenty of
smoke. Horn on first base, and
Fiddle on second, backed by Corn in
the field, making it hot for Umpire
Apple, who was rotten. AK came To
bat and chopped. Cigar let Brick
walk, and Sawelust filled the bases.
Song made hit and Twenty made a
score. Cigar went out and Balloon
started to pitch, but went straight up.
Then Cherry tried it, but was wild.
Old Ice kept cool in the game until
he was hit by a pitched ball, then you
should have heard Ice cream. Cab
bage had good head and kept quiet.
Grass covered lots of ground in the
field, and the crowd cheered when
Spider caught the fly.
Bread loafed on third and pumped
Organ, who played fast and put Light
out. In the fifth inning Wind began
to blow about what he could do Ham
mer began to knock and Trees began
to leave. The way they roasted Pea
nuts was fright. Knife was put out
for cutting first base lightning fin
ished pitching the game and struck
out sly men.
In the ninth Apple told Fiddle to
take his base. Oats was shocked and
then Song made another hit. from

on the plate. There was lot of bet
ting on the game, but Soap cleaned
up. The score was to 2. Door said

PLAY THE GAME FOR GOD AND COUNTRY

Theodore Roosevelt. Il do not think that any
man should let himself regard his political career
as a means of livelihood, or as his sole occupation
in life, for if he does he Immediately becomes
most seriously handicapped. The moment that he
begins to think how such and such an act will
affect the voters in his district or win affect some
great political leader who will have influence
over his destiny, he is hampered and his hands
are bound. Not only may it be his duty often to
disregard the wishes of politicians, but it may be
his clear duty at times to disregard the wishes OF
the people The voice of the people is not always
the voice of God, and when it happens to be the
voice of the devil, then it is mans clear duty to
defy its behests'

TO MAKE DEMOCRACY SAFE

Colonel Theodore Roosevelt: ''The first duty of
an American citizen is that he shall work in pol
itics his second duty is that he shall do that work
in practical manner and his third is that it shall
be done in accord with the highest principles of
honor and justice. * To certain extent his
work must be done in accordance with his individ
nal beliefs and theories of right and wrong. To a
yet greater extent ii must be done n combination
with others, he yielding or modifying certain Of
his own theories and beliefs SO as to enable him to
stand on a common ground with his fellows, who
have likewise yielded or modified certain of their
theories and beliefs.

IF THERE WERE NO TARIFF

Farmers are dissatisfied with prices for their
wheat, but they are appalled, when they think how
much lower the prices would be il the republican
congress had not enacted a tariff that shuts out
Canadian grain. Millers would be glad of the OPP
portunty to buy at the lower prices quoted for the
Canadian product. In any event, larger supply
in the American market would inevitably depress
the price still further.

one who has seen the Travers miss
perform here is positive she is the best
of her age.
She has raced three times this year
once in Canada and twice on the track

Wednesday in the Grab Bag she picked
up 119 pounds and won so handily that
her jockey, Laverne Fator, turned In
his saddle six times to yell derisively
at the boys on Parasol and Befuddle.
Happy Thoughts ran the six fur
longs in iii As. travelling under re-

coupled with her time trial run Sun
day. in which she covered the same
distance in ITO 3-5, has convinced the
most skeptical race followers that she
is the find of the year.
W. V. Thraves neglected to enter
her in any of the big Eastern stakes.

probably will be her last appearance
