Pensando en- Espana
Respetuosamente dedicado al sefor don
Rafael Fabian

Cuando con el alma ansiosa de con-
templar grandezas, hojeamos las pa
ginas de la historic de los pueblos que
aun exiSten, siempre tiene ell corazon
un sentimiento de profunda admira-
ci6n al volyer las paginas de la his
toria de la nacion Iberica.
Hay paises que sin ostentar Ell ell
pfesentc la soberbia de un poder in
menso han jugado en- la historic un
paael tan importante que no podemos
menos que admirar estos pueblos
que han ostentado como trofeos la
bendicion de la Fama y la consagra-
cion del renombre. La vida de Espa-
ia ha sido una cadena interminable
de triunfos y conquistas en- todos los
6rdenes del humane progreso Y en- to-
das las manifestaciones del poder y
de la ciencia.
A pesar del tempo transcurrido los
que gustamos del estudio lento v me-
ditativo, miramos con cierto religioso
respeto aquel grupo de sabias leyes
dadas por Alfonso TX al pueblo es-
panol, sin que este ejerciera preston
para que lie fueran otorgadas como
demonstration del alto, concepto que
tenia de la ley y los derechos aquel
rey-legislador,
Anterior y tan perfecta como Ia,

namiento de Leon, como Sc llam6s
aquel conjunto de sleyes, fue Ell punto.

ceptos de la ley que nacida en- Europa,

varios de los principles sustentados,
por las naciones mas civilizadas del
orbe apn, en- los tiempos. moderpps en-
los que la ley Sc halla en-, ocasioHess

ia Ell presente, ha sido Ia naci6n es-
cogida por el Poder Supreme para ini
ciar los senderos mas grandes del
mundo intellectual Ia par que fue la
propulsora del hecho mas glorioso que
han contemplate los ojos de la huma-

Su amor a la fe 10 demuestra con
Ia valiente victoria de Lepanto en- la

Tainbien en- Ell campo de las letras

LET THE POLITICAL CHIPS FALL
AS THEY MAY

Some few democratic exchanges are greatly
worried for fear the Colorado river pact will split
the democratic party and are figuring that if
they run an anti-pact man for governor, the re-
pubhcans viii try to follow suit, or pick out some
middle of the mud man. 1t is rather odd all the
talk of keeping the pact out Of politics. then maxi
ing talk of that kind. 1t seems to be difficult
for this bunch to get the idea out of their head
that the pact is nothing but political football
To about rs per cent of the people of the state,
the Colorado river pact is anything but political
football and at the first opportunity they will
convince this factional element of this sincere
belief in the pact regardless of politics. Delaying
for another year is not going to help In the
least The people want action, not delay, and
this proposed few years delay is not going to en-
hance the political chances of those who compel
the delay.
Arizona has been delayed too many years now
by people who were looking for political or finan-
cial profit by the delay.
There is every reason to believe the people of
Arizona have been "fed up on delays and are
pet bunch of politicians are bowled over in the
forward march.
Instead of bellyaching and delaying let's start
something Let's. clean a lot Of dead wood out
of the pathof progress, let the political chips fall
where they may.
Only a select few can make living working
politics,
The sooner the development of the great Colo
rado river commences the sooner all Arizonans
commence to feel progressive prosperity regard
less of their previous political predictions. Shall
we hope for more delay or more delivery?

IN THE HEARTS OF THE PEOPLE

The outpouling of hundreds of thousands of
citizens in the middle west, to meet, the funeral
train, gives thesstrongest possible denial to the
reports that the people of those regions were far
gone in fadicalism and anita Americanism No fl
ner testimony of American patriotism has ever
been seen than the voluntary and heartfelt sautes
to the dead commander IN chief. Not even DUR
ing the was there such manifest atiOn of love
for the union as peTsonified by the fallen leader.
In Iowa the railroad track was Lined mile after
mile with men, women and children who had made
their way from homes many miles distant. They
stood for hours, some of them all night waiting
to glimpse the funeral train and to exhibit, how
ever inadequately, their individual sense of loss.
They felt that by appearing in person they might
testify to their admiration for Mr.. Harding and
their sympathy with Mrs Harding. y ct agitators
and Inserupulous politicians would have us be-
lieve that these farmers are the verge of revo-
luton because of their abstraction with the
Washington government under President Hard
ing! Radicaisr1, a revolt against Harding, land
slide against the republican party the farm belt
aflane with bolshevism, and similar fantastic
statements have been made recently, and many
persons in the east have believed them. The epun-
try was told that Iowa farmers would run arnuck
because the government had not fixed the prices
of wheat, corn and hogs. The statements were
ibels upon self-respecting and patriotic element
of the population. The passingsof Mr.. Harding's
funeral train afforded an opportunity for the
farming element to show its true sentiment to-
ward him and toward the flag that he upheld.
In Chicago, where it is often said that radical
ism and communism are running riot, the crowds
massed along the railroad for miles, and halted
the funeral train by their density The people
who gathered were the common folk, the bone
and sinew of the country. Their hearts were beat
ing true to the music OF the union, and their eyes
were moist when they beheld the funeral train
bearing the fallen leader to Washington. 1t was
not of anarchy or even discomfort that they spoke
or thought, but merely for the death OF one
they trusted with the government and whom they
had learned to love because of his manliness his
kindliness and his loyalty to them
First in the hearts Of his countrymen' accur-
ately describes the highest tribute ever paid to
George Washington. In this day the same trib-
ute has been paid to Warren G. Harding by Amer
leans who are evidently patriotic to the core
sFirst in the hearts of his country Harding
fame will be as long as his sleep Washington
Post.

AN AMUsIN CONGRESSMAN


A California congressman went over to Hawaii
for few days trip and spilled great batch OF
wisdom to the HaWaiians as per to-wit: Hawai-
JAMS have right to the good things on the islands
and hope you will not let possession of them slip
from your hands," That solemn admonition must
have brought forth loud laughter from ALL includ-
ing the water buffalo and the shade of Captain
Cook. Sugar used to pay the freight when King
Calico was on the throne There are 22,000 native
Hawaiians on all the islands by the last census
1I3500 Japanese and $4,000 whites of all nation
alities, including Americans. The total popula-
tion is ,912. As to letting possession slip
about all the native hasn't let slip except his appe
tite for fish and ukuele, is his smile and ability
to SWIM. The islands are now owned by sugar
and pineapple kings-divided into about five diff
ferent holdings. If you attempt to go into busi-
ness any rather large scale, you will very soon
discover who's who.
That California congressman's heart is un-
doubtedly in the right place, but his head wasn't
functioning very strong when he so wisely advised
the Hawaiian not to let possession slip from his
grasp. Things didn't Slip" over there they had
slidded before Queen Lii quit eating poi and
smoked squid

. HE GOTTA 4 BITE

Hank Stebbins kept a sporting
goods shop just below the place
where he lived, and among other
commodities sold fishing rods. In the
line Of advertising he had rod dis
played outside, with papier mache
fish dangling at the end Of it.
In the small hours one morning a
barrage Of pebbles was thrown at his
window ami when he had climbed out
Of bed he discovered on the sidewalk
below q man sWaying a trifle u1-
steadily and beckoning to him.
Z What's the matter demanded
jStebbfns.
Sh-h-hlD cautioned the stranger.
Don't make any noise, but get dress
ed right away and come down. This
is important.
Considerably worried the store
keeper scrambled into his clothes and
descended.
Il just wanted to tell you" an
nounced the other in d loud whisper,
TO pull n your Ine quick. You've

THE REAL. DANGER

Dan Boone, the fearless animal tam
er Of the circus, had dread of cold
air that amounted almost to an OBJ
session. One day after his exhibition
in a cage with a fierce lion, he re-
marked to the circus manager:
John, old man, this will be the
death of me yet.
You're not losing your nerve, are
you, Dan?v inquired the other anx-
iously. You're not afraid Of that
lion 7" IN
Afraid Of that heast?'s snorted
Dan in disgust. Il should say mott
But those cages are Che worst place
on earth for drafts. Some day I'll
take cold in one of them and it will
be the death Of me.

FREEDOM OF THE PRESS


A decision recently rendered by the supreme
court of New York will have a far-reaehing in
fuence upon the freedom of the press.
The Buffalo Evening News published matter
which the counsel of that city alleged annoyed and
har4assed certain officials. The city counsel NOV
ed for an order directing editors of the paper to
appear and answer regarding articles concerning
certain conditions of the city,
Justice Marcus refused the writ, saying:AI am
strongly impressed with the view that it would
be unwise to heclIe and annoy the press. If every
article subjected. them to an examination that
would harass and annoy them, whenever the sub
ieet matter was unpleasant by way OF criticism OF
officials, the public would lose much, even rec
ognizing the license oftentimes used
The press, is not to besdenied the right OF crit
icizng public officials. A community can have
no better security that newspaper which
watches the acts of public officers and holds them
strictly accountable for all they do.
The newspapers guard our liberties and protect
our pocketbooks. The public owes them great
deal and the courts, interpreting the constitution,
do well to recognize this fact.
The Coconino sun., 1923-08-24
RELIEF FOR oyERwoRKED PRESIDENTS

A single term for president, which Senator
Cummings advocates, would not, of course, have
spared Mr.. Harding's life. But the circumstances
of his death in office from overwork due to the
manifold official and extra-official tasks which
his position imposes on the president give special
pertinence to the suggestion. A president in his
second term has the same burdensoTne obliga-
tions to face, with his vitality necessarily impaired
by the protraction of the strain
A more logical remedy would seem to be to
safeguard the president IN his first term by re-
ileveing him of the mass of inconsequerltial work
which the chief executive is now required to per-
FORM The necessity of a presidents deyoting the
greater part of day to signing his name to doc
uments, to the interruption of pressing problems,
illustrates the growth Of the abuse. British pro-
cedule provides for the relief of the premier from
irksome routine of the kind through an under
secretariat and it should be possible to institute
a similar economy of the presidents time.
Certainly the alternative of a breakdown should
emphasize the need of the reform. The strain of
the office is sufficiently taxing without intensity
ing it with petty burdens.--Miami Silver Belt.

The contention as to the famous Hopi snake
dance still goes on. 1t seems there is one element
dances abolished because it is claimed, of their
vile ard harmful influence. It is said by them the
real immoral conduct of the natives occurs before
and after the dances andnot at times when whites
are present. Others who have been visiting the
dances for years claim it would be crime to stop
the old Indian cerenonials and are strong in de-
nying they are immoral; that nothing of an inn
moral nature was ever witnessed by them.
