GUST THE MUGWUMPERs

The republican party would do we'll to oust all
so-called "bloc" members and start with clean
slate An outlaw is an outlaw regardless Of what
other name he may select to carry on his ne
farious methods. He is neither of nor for the
republican party. In nearly every instance his
efforts are purely selfish with no idea of help
ing to carry out the pledges of his party. The
present day so-called progressive" is another
self-appointed egotist, wholly selfish, assuming
the name to boost his own personal interests.
These self-styled progressives are just about as
progressive as balky mule and accomplish just
as much as the stubborn mule. They want moth
ing the party that elected them wants. They do
not know what they stand for, usually wrap their
flax-seed sized souls up in an antiquated social
istic idea and stamp around i'll circle the size
of dime. The old 'Mugwump" was of the
same species-a disgruntled politician who could
not make his party give him all the candy he
wanted They are the pinheaded element. They.
do not represent either the people or the party
they belong to- They are but the swelled-headed
egotists whose whole ambition in life is self-cen-
tered. The republican party should catalogue
them where they belong, oust them from the
party in an old house-cleaning style regardless
of temporary results. The party will be the gain
er and accomplish more in the end.

CHARITY THAT is NOT CHARITY

Flagstaff is singularly free of street corner
beggars. However, the good natured, whole
hearted average American is continually "bum
med" There is need Of picking up this class of
'bums." With all the equipment and expense of
cities counties and states for taking of real
ly deserving people, there is no need for street
bum1ning'' to thrive as it has. People are paying
contributions to every conceivable sort of char
ity. There can hardly be a charitable case not
cared for. The cumming" class find it more
agreeable and more profitable to wander around
at large exhibiting their misfortunes and telling
piteous tales made up to fit their appeals. Co
conino county is taxed to take care of every such
case; the societies of Flagstaff are always on
the hunt for the needy. Other communities ov-
er the country are doing their best to help the
worthy, consequently why a beggar in real
reed? Every one of this class should be COM
PEELED to prove himself worthy before being
allowed to use street corners to pifer the gen
erous public.

WHERE THE TROUBLE LIES

The greatest moral coward of the age is the
legislative or representative coward who is gem
orally elected because of his lack of opinion on
any subject and his ability to side-step urgent
questions of public policy. We, the people, vote
for them very generally because of their exceed
ingly pleasant way, affableness and apparent de-
sire to comply with our every wish When IN
office they are afraid to assert themselves as to
their own ideas, and are afraid they do not know
what their constituents want. The red-booded
individual who does things worth while makes
enemies. The political coward only wants the Of
flee, not enemies. He represents no one, is OF
value to no one and a detriment to his state and
county We, the people, complain bitterly be
cause no definite action is taken and delay fol
lows delay but it never occurs to us, the people,
that it is our own fault. A little horse sense in
electing people to represent US would go long
way toward making the administration of pub
lie affairs better.

ALLURING ARIZONA

By various shifts from form to form
She drifts and darkles, CLEANS and glows;
Hers is the passion of the storm,
The tender penance of repose.
Through changing shapes or devious ways,
Through storm calm, by cloud or flame,
MY heart shall follow all my days
Some lure cannot name.
Like sunlight on some maiden's hair,
Or light that CLEANS in children's eyes,
When reigns the laughter. rich and rare,
That greets a gift of glad surprise
Ny heart doth know and thrills to know
Some primal presence that it sought;
My soul aWakes to find it so,
And cries: Behold what God hath wrought!
Sometimes when sudden afterglows,
With spectral lights transform the sky,
see beyond the gold and rose
The feet of Seraphim go by.
Or when the tramphng morn walks Ger
The brooding sky or nursing sod,
My awed heart whispers, "Ask no more:
Be still and know that / am God!'
Or dreaming in some canyon, where
The dim walls ring with murmurings,
Where part is music, part is prayer,
And part is rush of angel wings:
Solemn / bow reverent head,
Amid the shadowed splendor there
The towering peaks and chasms dread
Bear witness all that God is here
Edgar Kennison.
