HIGHER STANDARDS PREVAIL ON
SMALL PAPERS

In an address before a joint convention of the
American Teachers of journalism, the Associa-
ton of American Schools and departments of
journalism, and the American association of Col
lege News Bureaus, Prof. Justin Miller of the uni
versity of Minnesota said "The newspaper man
should look at his profession from an honestly
critical point of view. The chief dangers of the
press are from commercialization and from the
SNUG editor, who thinks whatever is is right
Higher standards obtain in the smaller towns,
where the editor is known and is personally re.
sponsible."
Prof, Justin Miller is right. None of the small
er publications could live very long on the same
basis many of our so-called great" newspapers
are published. Too many of them want good
story, right or wrong a good story, banking
on the fact that very few of their readers will
know whether it is true or not. just few such
stories in a smaller paper will bankrupt it's re
liability with readers and wreck it's usefulness.
OF course no two men will agree on the descrip-
tion of dog fight, but in any event the dog fight
was "had" or no attempt would have been made
to report it.

THE SALE OF BRIGHT ANGEL TRAIL

The offer made by the government of S1O0,00
cash for the Bright Angel trail at Grand Canyon,
with the secretary of interior authorized to build
a road from National Old Trails Highway to the
rim. looks like too good one for any sensible set
of people to turn down. AS a flat matter OF fact,
the east end of Coconino county may expect SUI
pervsor of either party elected in the west end or
District No. 8, to be against the proposition, con-
seouently it behooves the Flagstaff end OF Super
visorial Districts Nos l and to elect men who
favor accepting the offer of the government.
That is the situation regardless Of politics and
the trade is in the best interests of every section
of the country despite petty arguments to the
contrary
Every candidate for supervisor on either ticket
should be required to declare himself either for or
against the sale of the trail and let the voter gov
ern himself accordingly. The great majority OF
the people of CoconinO county have right that
no politician can or should be allowed to use for
personal advantage or gain. 1t is time they were
aroused to this fact and assert themselves posi-
lively
The question is shall we sell the Bright Angel
trail to the government on most advantageous
terms now, or wait until the government has ex-
hausted all patience and either builds trail OF its
own or condemns the old trail? Condemnation
proceedings would not bring the county 100000
and would lose us the good will of congressman
who are willing to help the county IN road
building in several times that amount.
Dog in the manger tactics of few will only
DELAY matters short time.

FOOLED

The most noticeable trend of mod
ern education is to develop what is
in child, rather than whip them all
into one general shape as they used
to in the old days, but there are still
to be found plenty of the old-fashion-
ed teachers who seem to have the fac
ulty of sitting the kiddies with the
two greatest bugaboos of youth-irn-
patience and intolerance.
At the Logan street school the 9TH
er day, one of the children unwilling
~ got revenge. Eager to share a
new discovery with others, the little
fellow cried:
Il is"
The teacher swooped down at once.

COOLIDGE'S COURAGE

One can not but admire the stand taken by
President Coolidge in his Memorial day address,
in which he says: Whatever differences, what
ever pers exist for us in the world will come any
way, whether we oppose or support the (World)
court" He further expressed the view that open,
honest definite action instead of quibbing and
vacating tended to bring about peace, and a
better understanding among men. Whatever diff
ferences honest men may have can be adjusted
without war or rancor, but we must be honest in
our contentious.
President Coolidge has the courage Of his con-
victions and regardless of political expedieney, is
wiling to decide problems on that basis, win or
lose. Losing the support of such congress as
now exists is the least of his cares.

THE PROPHET

1t was the young candidates first
campaign and his very first political
speech. He was much encouraged by
the hearty welcome extended by the
local committee and delighted by the
elaborate preparations for the meet
ing. There was even band to play
on the stand before the speech.
At last the chairman came for
ward and addressed the crowd as fol-
lows:
"Fellow citizens, we have with us
today a young man that is destined
to take high place in ranks of our be
loved party. He comes to tell us of
the burning issues that confront us,
and his fame as an orator has, of
course, preceded him. He will now
address you and when he has finished,
the band will call you together again.

McADOO'S NOMINATION

McAdoos nomination would be disastrous to the
democratic party, says the New York World, one
of the leading democratic organs of the country.
''We do not see Why then, it is not obvious
to him, as it is to us and to many of his nominal
supporters, that in the end the democratic con-
vention cannot, and therefore, will not select him
to lead the campaign. Mr.. Doheny's lawyer cam
not conduct a campaign against the republicans
for allowing themselves to be corrupted by Do
heny's money 1t would be a farce, and the dem
ocratic party has not fallen to the point where
it is compelled to stultify ITSELF" continues the

Congress seems to be having lovely time
passing out appropriations. Both the senate and
the house evidently think they are discrediting
President Coolidge by their reckless extravaganza
just at time when strict economy is demanded
by the people. They probably hope by class ap-
preparations to embarrass Coolidge. II he signs
extravagant appropriation bills they chucke with
glee because they know the taxpayers are going
to kick. If he don't sign them the beneficiaries
under the appropriation are expected to complain
bitterly.

The proposition of building large number of
small houses to rent mainly during the summer
months is a good one that would bring prof
table return. A community dining room could

leased the year around. There are many splen-

NEGRO PREACHER GIVEN
SENTENCE
Trial Grows Out Of Alleged Lettering
About Courthouse

Birmingham, Ala. - Rev William
castleberry, Negro pastor, may have
been at the county courthouse from
morning until evening for the purpose
Of marrying colored couples, but Spe-
cial Judge Fred Woodard. in the court
Of misdemeanors. didn't seem to think
So last Saturday morning, when he
sentenced the preacher to II months
Imprisonment and fined him $500.
Castleberry, who was obviously stun
ned By the courts decision, appealed
the case.
Rev. w. J Smith, Negro preacher,
and his two sons, Leon and Dave, who
we're arrested together with Castleber-
~ on charges Of vagrancy, will not
hear the verdict in their particular
cases until 30 days have passed. They
were arraigned with Castleberry but
their cases were continued by Judge
Woodard.
Castleberry was convicted through
the testimony Of courthouse authori-
ties, who complained that he had been
lettering around the county admins
tration building. But the strongest evil
dence against the preacher was brought
By Lige Johnson, Negro ianitor,
Judge and deputy sheriff. Lige tes-
tilted that he had seen Cast1eberry
every hour every day for the past few
months and that he had seen the Smith
trio every five minutes.
In defending himself, Castleberry
stated that be had been authorized to
marry Negro couples at the courthouse
BY Sheriff 7. J. Shirley and by Judge
H. B. Abernethy.
The arrest Of the Negro preacher
has provoked many other complaints
that the courthouse Is used As 4 hang
ing out place By most 81 the loafers IN
Birmingham. A drive against these
Migrants Is expected 70 be started soon

As Judge Joseph Burke, was about
to pronounce sentence upon Geo.
Mentor, who pleaded guilty to gun
carrying, Wednesday morning, before
His Honor, Mentors employer stepped
to the bar and told His Honor" what
a good boy, Geo. was. How prompt,
dependent and all that-and that he
had been working for them since
1919, he also related that the real
cause Of Geo. carrying a gun, was, a
few weeks ago one of his fellow-em-
ployees, had been held up and shot on
his way home, and this had tended to
scare the boys" They were only
doing this in the fear that they might
meet the same fate. He asked that he
be put on probation, which was
granted. Geo. was saved BY a hair.
