NHEN PULITZER WAS POOR
AAbiisher Was Turned Away From
the Hotel That Hs Later Bought
as Site for Newspaper.

At one time Joseph Pulitzer, who
Bought the New York World from Jay
Gould in 1883, was so poor that he
was turned away from a New York
hotel for lack Of so cents with which
TO pay for a bed. In less than twenty
years he bought this hotel, pulled it
down and erected in It's place the
Pulitzer building, at that time one of
the largest business buildings in New
York, where he housed the New York
World. One of the ROthschilds once
remarked that If he had not lost his
eyesight and his health Pulitzer would
have collected into his hands all the
money there was.
Pulitzer was born in the village of
Mako, near Budapest in Hungary,
April 10, 1847. His father was a Jew.
his mother a Christian. At the age
OF sixteen he migrated to the United
States He landed without friends
and without money and unable to
speak a word Of English. He enlisted
Immediately in a regiment composed
chiefly of Germans and in which Ger
man was the prevailing tongue.
Within a year the Civil war ended
and Pulitzer found himself, in COM
mon with hundreds Of thousands Of
others, out of employment at a time
when employment was most difficult
10 secure. 1t was then he was so
poor that he couldn't even afford to
pay for a nights lodging at the hotel

became the home of the New York
World.-Detroit News.

BIRCH.

Of the one hundred and thirty-two uses to which all the woods of North America may be put, but one, and that birch, is useful for one half of these commodities. Some woods are restricted in their uses while others are very versatile and may be used in a variety of ways under their own name, or as substitutes for other woods. To the latter class belongs birch, as it has the necessary hard ness to make it desirable whereaver a hardwood is needed, either for it's strength or smoothness of surface; and it's beautiful grain and satiny texture combine to make it one of the most satisfactory woods for interior finish, or for high class furniture.
 Laboratory tests in the Forestry Department have proven that Birch is one of the hardest of all hardwoods and is especially adapted to the pur- pose of flooring where fine polish, combined with long wearing qualities are desired. As proof of it's desira. bility. along these lines, reports of building operations in the east and

REVOLT IN THE AIR

Disguised and sickened by the med dlesome tactics of self constituted re- formers and uplifters, an increasing number of citizens of this great coun- try are getting cooked and primed for a genuine revolt against lot of foolishness which is being practiced under the guise of reform.
 Every dyspeptic individual who has lost all zest for life wants to make it impossible for his fellowmen to enjoy even the most harmless forms of amusement, excepting un- der such regulations as may be pre- scribed by the busybodies.
 Another class would stifle free thought and speech; many even try to injure a fellow citize& T his busi. ness because he does not subscribe to the same creed as that professed by certain self-appointed guardians of religion and morals.
 From one angle or another, prac tically every security vouchsafed to an American citizen by the Bill oi Rights is being attacked. It is time to call a halt to this petty tyranny of fanatical minority and assert oul traditional rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

middle west show an ever increasing consumption of this valuable wood for the above named purposes, where the builders have had the choice of all the hardwoods of the world.
 As a cabinet wood Birch has few equals, and no superiors, for in the hands of the skilled craftsman, it will show with perfection any finish, light or dark, natural or stained and it's wide range of grain furnish many pleasing effects when properly handl- ed by the finisher. Owing to it's fine texture and lack of coarse pores, it furnishes one of the best bases for white enamelled work.
 Once thoroughly seasoned, Birch does not warp, twist or split. The texture always remains firm, the grain does not rise, nor are there those mi mute pores which are so common in some otherwise fine hardwOOds; and which after a time absorb the finsh and cause the job to look shabby.
 The ever diminishing supply of eastern birch and other hardwoods, together with the fact that very lit. tie useful hardwoods grow west of the Rocky mountains, has served to draw attention to Alaska's wonderful supply of this most beautiful and use full timber which is just beginning tc be placed on the market, and is des tined to become in the near future one of the important exports of the territory.

THE RADIO ON THE FARM.

Much attention is being given
to radio for the rural dweller
from the standpoint of simplicity
of operation and reception.
Like all new inventions, radio
is going through state of pro.
gression to eliminate complicated
mechanical operating devices
and make it more enjoyable for
the everyday operator. according
to Mr.. F. B. Traverse of the
Magnavox Radio Co. He says:
Radio engineers are con.
stantly at work perfecting as
nearly as possible every feature
of radio and are making great
strides in hroadcasting and re.
ceiving equipment, particularly
along the lines of rural recep.
ton aud better reception during
hot weather. Many improve.
ments have already been made
in the receiving equipment to
simplify operation. so that g.
farmer coming In from the fields
or tired business man can with
a simple turn of the wrist get
the station be desires"
According to Mr.. Traverse,
any rural dweller can install q
receiving set and without any
help whatsoever from the out.
side, operate it to advantage.
This is encouraging news for the
farmer, for radio furnishes a
great link in the chain OF attrac.
tions that will help keep the
young people at home, no matter
if they live on far removed farms
Or near great cities. The Man.

PIMA TO VOTE ON GAME LAW

Tucson-Although an injunc.

late to keep the measure off the
ballots in this county.
Despite the placing of the
measure on the ballot. the result
will not be changed as the court

that even though voters mark

FIRE PREVENTION WEEK ocT.7-Io

Since it is to his home that
every man instinctively goes in
quest of absolute safety there is
grim irony, more than little,
in the revelation that somebody s
dwelling suffers attack by fire
every three minutes, approxi
mately-that the average yearly
destruction of homes approaches
$66, ,O0O,O 900. Plainly. the safety
that be seeks is not to be found
around the average American
hearth.
1t appears from the published
record that four of the six lead
ing causes of fire in the home
Defective chimneys and fues;
sparks on roofs; stoves, fur,
naces, boilers and their pipes,
and matches-smoking-indubit
ably are preventable by the ex,
ercise of proper care and com.
mon sense.

guarding America Against Fire
presents complete plans for com.
munity observance of National

to facilitate the campaign and
will welcome communications

STANDING UP FOR ARIZONA

That Senator Ashurst is not
afraid to stand up for Arizona
was well exemplified in his
splendid retort to the telegram
sent to Senator Kendrick of Wy.
oming on January IA, last, by
Governor Nellie r. Ross of Wy
oming, and read in the senate,
in which she protested against
any appropriation being made
for the construction of the San
Carlos dam until such time as
Arizona has ratified the Colorado
River compact.
The mastery reply of Senator
Ashurst follows:
"Mr. President, I sat in my
seat yesterday about adjourn
ment time and heard what was
said in the senate regarding the
San Carlos project. [ did not
desire then to let escape an in.
temperate word, but | now put
that circumstance into the scales
to show to senators how much
injustice toward Arizona appar-
emily is contemplated. 1t re.
quired all of my prudence and
Self.command to refrain from an
outburst of indignation. [ would
not now advert to the unfair
episode were it not for the fact
that | desire ia 10 uncertain
terms to let the senate and the
country know that Arizona wears
no shackles and spurns all bribes
A telegram was read here
last evening intimating that un.
less Arizona did a certain thing
she ought not to have justice.
| That is the tenor of the tele.
gram, and there we're some ex.
pressions which indicated that
the wise legislation for the au-
thorization of the San Carlos
irrigation project in Arizona,
which had already been passed
by congress and signed by the,
president, would be repealed un.
Hess Arizona took a certain &C.
tion before she was ready to act.
That is q poor way to attempt to-
secure diplomatic negotiation
with sister state, and let me.
warn senators now that any &C.
tion whatever savoring of in.
timidation or coercion will be,
met, and justly met, by the con.
tempt and righteous indignation
of every person in Arizona, and
that those who gave expression
yesterday to words which might.
be construed to be an attempted
intimidation did not promote
their own cause.
Arizona spurns all bribes and
wears no chains. She will in her
own due season, in her own way,
as becomes a sovereign state,
enter into agreements with other
states when she is ready to do
so, but not before. and the sug-
gestion that certain just laws Of
value to Arizona ought to be re.
pealed or suspended until she is
coerced into particular agree
ment is not to be heard with
patience, no matter by whom ut.
tered"

VOTE YES ON COMPENSATION

lenged A. A. Wesley to debate

cepted the def. Looking at this,

! the people for their adoption is
not all that could be expected it
is a betterment of the present

or more, have adopted compen.
sation laws and they appear to
be working smoothly under
them, and the fact that every
mining state has a law relieving

man what they believe to be
justly due him, it seems impos
sible that jury would better
the workers condition in a suit
I of law, wherefore this method
of settlement appears to be the
only one possible. 1t takes out
of the hands of the company the
matter of payment, the state
paying the adjudged relief and
all of it without deduction of
any kind, and the parties taking
advantage of this method of
as surance paying its premium to
the state. It relieves a tension
that has long existed between
the employer and employe. Un-
der present conditions the EN-
ployer assures himself against
liability, but the worker is not
assured.
Under the new proposition the
employer is relieved of liability
and the worker is assured of just
compensation. for his injuries.
| No man who believes in fairness
between the state. the employer
and employee should fail to cast
his vote for the proposed consti
tutional amendment. It is, of
course, to be understood that
men like Worsley would fight
the proposed law, which would
take away from him large sums
of money; each year, and the
other ambulance chasing lawyers
and the fellows who live off the
frailties of these workmen are
also expected to throw their
| forces against any measure that
will reduce, their income. The
enactment of compensation
law under the power that this
amendment will create will be
the greatest benefit that workers
can be safeguarded by. No mat
ter what these men who pretend
to be your friend may say, the
safety of your family and your.
self demands that you vote for
fhis amendment on the 29th of
this month. .-Coconino Sun.

The members are absolutely oppOs- ed to placing traps one mile and q half apart until it is found that the present conservation methods are ineffective. The best informed men connected with the industry do not expect any but good results from the present restrictive meas ures and believe them sufficient. We request that you study and consider most carefully the re- solution prepared by this club be- fore you take any action which will eliminate the small owners of independent traps who are largely responsible for the growth and prosperity of this district. Many would be financially ruined by the proposed trap spacing and all members believe this would be most disasterous for the industry here, that it is not needed and hence an unwarranted regulation.
