Mrs. Keene Says

When friends proposed my name
as a candidate for director Of schools
it was announced that would make
no personal campaign but the fact
that my activities, should be elected
are being enormously reported, caus-
es me TO make the statement that no
one has approached me in regard TO
the position as teacher and I have
made no suggestions in the matter
believing that this selection should
be largely in the hands of the super
intendent. Also have made no state
ment as reported, favoring general
dancing in the schools.
1.-THE positive things which hope to
accomplish, if elected, are better CO.
operation between teachers and par
ents, assistants in lower grades,
which I believe can be handled better
by woman and other school admin
istration, on account Of being thoroly
conversant with school management
and laws through years Of training
and teachig.

HOW CALIFORNIA TRADES WITH ARIZONA

President Salisbury of the Arizona Industrial

MS usual good business judgment. Arizona trades
with California SO far as it is possible. II

PARTY LOYALTY, PLEA OF SEN. DENEEN

A plea for party loyalty and defense of our
party system of government was made IN an IN
terview given recently in Boston by Charles S.
Deneen, the new United States senator from Illi-
nois Senator Deneen also urged republicans to
prepare for strenuous campaign next year, point
ing out the fact that there are "a outgoing re-
pubcansi senators, most Of whom face a hard
fight and only seven outgoing democrats, all from
the solid south.
Touching on the question Of party spirit Sena-
tor Deneen said:
"There has been tendency throughout the
country of late to deprecate party loyalty. Our.
system Of political parties is not the result OF
chance, but arises out of the fundamental needs
of representative government.
Popular government cannot function effective
ly and reflect the will Of the people without some
means of securing responsibility on the part OF
those who govern to those who are governed. 1t
is in response to this need tlat political parties
exist. A political party is permanent organiza-
tion built upon certain moral and political princi-
pies and it is directly responsible to the people
whom it represents and whose will has created it.
"A successful political party cannot be the
agency of any particular class or of any single
leader. It cannot be built around single man or
a single issue. It must be founded upon general
principles and hold fast to fundamental tenets II
it is to survive and to be of service to the nation.
"Such a party is the republican party. It was
formed to save the union and the constitution. 1t
has stood for equal rights and equal opportunities.
1t has adhered to economic principles in the de-
velopment Of the country. It has stood for honest
money and for the payment of honest debts. It
has stood for the American standard of living. 1t
has followed the traditions of the nation in its re-
ations with other nations. And under the leader
ship of President Coolidge it is keeping faith with
it's great past and solving the problems of the
present in harmony with its great traditions.
