Degree of Divorce Seldom Ends Love,
 Ayers Astute Judge

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 6.-Divorce does not necessarily mean that hus- band and wife have ceased to love each other; in fact the contrary of ten is true, in the opinion of Judge Thomas F. Graham, known locally as the great reconciler
 Judge Graham has been hearing divorce cases for "A years. Tt has been by experience,' he said re- gently, "that love is not always dead when a woman sues for di- vorce, I believe that 99 per cent of the women who get divorces leave the courtroom with heavy hearts. They love the men they have just di- vorced. I believe that when a wo- man once loves man, she never ceases to love, even though she may testify most bitterly against her hus- band
 "A man does not have the power of expression of love that a woman has. Yet that love is there and it endures. When a father deserts his children, he is arrested Almost as many mothers desert their children, yet we seldom hear of their arrest for abandonment. They should be-
 Gambling In itself is not cause for divorce, Judge Graham holds There are few homes indeed" he pointed out, where husband or wife doesn't play poker, nah jongg, bridge or some other game of cards for money or prizes. But when the wife squanders her husbands income on bridge of nah jongg, or the husband spends all his time and money at the gaming table and stays out un- til all hours of the night, gambling becomes ground for divorce in this state on the charge of cruelty"
 The judge expressed pity for the wife "who stays at home nights wait ing for friend husband to come home for dinner and he does not come until the dinner is cold, spoiled, in the opinion of the wife. And there nev-

CT was wife who did not take pride in the dinners she prepared for her husband. The tardy husband inflicts form of cruelty on his wife that causes her more suffering than the lash of a whip. She has good grounds for divorce
 "So has the wife whose mental suffering is caused by the mans stay ing out until the early morning hours. Every day we read in the newspapers of men slugged and robbed, some times killed, while returning home at night. Imagine the state of mind of the bride who waits hour after hour for her husband to come home and he does not appear. Night af- ter night many wife endures that sort of thing. Finally she comes in- to the divorce court to get freedom from the man she really loves better than any one in the world"

REPORT LOADED FOR
 NEWSPAPERS, CLAIM

WASHINGTON, D. CC., Jan. GA charge that the postoffice depart ment's cost entertainment report was essentially aimed at newspapers and periodicals, was made today before the senate postoffice subcommittee, by Arthur J. Baldwin, president of the National Publishers association.
 Appearing at public hearings to op- pose the S10,000 advance in second class mail rates under the admins tration bill to take care of any raises for postal employees, Baldwin said Joseph Stewart, who had charge of the compilation of the report had an obsession that the second class mail was big burden on the department.
 T think" he said that this report is framed with one specific thing in mind, to show that the enormous cost in the postoffice is in the handl- ing of secondclass mail matter"
 Referring to the rural free delivery charge against periodicals, Baldwin said congress established this serv- ice not for the benefit of the publish CTS, but of the farmers This service costs approximately s1OO,OOO,OOO per year.
 That S1OO,OOO,OOO should be re- garded as an appropriation for the relief of the rural population" said he

CRAWLING COckROACHES
 LEAD TO RICH DISCOVERY

YAGO, Nayarit, Mexico, Jan. G. Crawling cockroaches by the thous- ands recently led to the rediscovery of lost mine, fabulously rich in the days of the Spanish conquest. A young American mining engineer, Frank E. Davis, of San Francisco, found the ancient bonanza
 The old vein, measuring more than sixteen feet in width, was intact It carries high values in silver and gold, and is now being worked.
 The mine once was operated by Spanish padres in the time of Cor tez. It had been lost for nearly 115 years, for the Spaniards abandoned it when they were forced to flee to Spain at the outbreak of the Mexi- can rebellion for independence in 1912. Church writings recorded it as one of the wealthiest prdoucers of the day. The padres had christened it La Cucaracha, meaning cock roach, because of its peculiar attrac- tion for these creatures, which in-- habiited it in vast numbers.
 Before deserting the location, the Spanish operators sealed the en- trance and effaced outward signs of their labor. They expected to re- turn shortly. But they never came back, for the Mexican rebels were victorious The secret of the treas ure-trove perished with the priests and was buried among records of the early church.
 At the time of the revolution against President Diaz, when Ameri- cans were unsafe in many parts of the country, Davis, just out of col lege, was in the wilds of Nayarit. He took refuge with an aged priest in the ancient church at Compostel- la, who concealed him in secret quarters of the crumbling mission. The priest confided in Davis some rare records of the mining opera tions of the Spanish conQuerors.

THE HOUSE TO HOUSE PEDDLER

Protests on behalf of citizens are going UP from
several Arizona towns against houSe-to-hOuse
peddlers who are offering for sale almost every
thing imaginable, that may be found in stocks of
merchandise, as we'll as many things so worthless
that regular dealers do not handle them. To some
extent of course the operations of these peddlers
interfere with the business of local merchants,
who pay rent, taxes, and otherwise assist in the
upkeep and growth of the community.
Objection is made chiefly to the peddlers on
the ground of their annoyance to the households
they visit. In the course of day, frequently at
the luncheon or dinner hours, women are called by
the insstent ringing of a doorbell to meet only a
peddler with something to SELL 1t is usually not
something that fills a long-felt want, but some
thing that had not occurred to the woman ap-
preached that She wanted it at ALL 1t is no un-
usual thing for from two to a half dozen peddlers
to make onslaughtS on the same house in single
day.
All dependable merchandise of whatever variety
may be found in the regular stores. The mer-
chants vie with one another in trying to secure
anything that is of real value to their patrons. It
pays them to do so. They avoid carrying what is
of lesser worth, or worthless for they expect to
sell to the same patron again. If, however, both
are deceived in an article, the merchant makes
good But the first transaction Of the pedder
with his patron is apt to be the last. If the
patron is deceived, he has no comeback.
Morever, the money paid to pedders, as well as
that sent to the mail order houses goes out of the
community for ever. No part of it remains to as
sist in relieving the weight of taxation or to make
up any part of the contributions for various pur-
poses every community makes in the course of the
year. hardly less burdensome than taxes, but
which are almost inevitabe-The Arizona Repub-

OUR BRILLIANT ANGELS TRAIL AGAIN?

Congressman Carl Hayden, when interviewed as
to his opinion of the proper manner for locating
an approach road to the Grand syCanyon, here
Thursday, said that he was of the opinion that
the location of the road should be left strictly up
to the engineers of the bureau of roads. He
added further that whereas 80 per cent of the
travel over this approach road would be by tour
lists and not Coconino county residents the road
should be located and maintained with a view to
best serving that so per cent. Accordingly the
government engineers should be left free to pick
a location which would be best designed to serve
the purposes of the road regardless of local wishes
as to the location of the road. 's{ ~ s3}S
The News has urged this same contention
number of former occasions. Naturally y.we hope
the road may fall near Williams but if the engi-
neers are left to proceed according to their own
best judgment and engineering ability without
coercion, we will abide by their decision most
cheerfully and gladly lend our mite IN helping the
good work along. Fair play is all that Williams
has ever asked for, but we do want that-Wil-
lams News.
If we remember rightly The Coconino Sun men
toned this matter last year and saggested that it
would be good idea to trade the trail for an ap-
proach road to Grand Canyon, but somehow the
voters did not take to the idea. Apparently
Flagstaff people are not much interested in the
matter, though Congressman Hayden is still OF
the opinion that approximately $800,000 could be
secured for an approach road in exchange for the
trail. At least he suggests that congress would
entertain proposition of building permanent
approach road to the Grand Canyon and maintain
it in exchange for the Brigh Angel rail-

HOW TO Do PERSONAL POLITICS
WITH THE PUBLIC'Sf MONEY

Senator Leslie Hardy of Santa Cruz county says
the state of Arizona has spent $45, 100000 in the
past five years for roads and from the tenor of his
remarks he is constrained to believe that at least
$5,000,000 actually went toward improving of the
highways, while the big end went toward improv
ing political conditions of those most interested
in taking the humps out of their private political
highway. Senator Hardy is a democrat politi-
cally consequently willing to go fifty-fifty
with his set Of figures.
The senator says that our highway system
should be taken out of politics, but, offers no sou-
tion of the problem other than to show that we
are not getting the roads even fifty-fifty
basis-nuch less than that. Consequently it Is
easy to see that Senator Hardy is young man
and does not understand the political situation IN
our state very we'll He does not seem to. under
stand that if lines of communication intellectual
and physical are freely opened within this state,
it will affect political control and political inter-
ests to such an extent that honest meaning voters
will get wise and cause heap of trouble.
We understand that Senator Hardy would Ake
to be a candidate for governor next year. Now
Les, would not make bad governor, but IT ne
wants to win anything in Arizona at this stage
of the game he should cut out that economy stuff
Honesty in figures, actual attempt at economy
and saving to taxpayers, we regret to remark Is
usually on the slow end of the official count at
nearly every election.

Make them all feel rich with your promises and
spend all contributions offered on your self.
