CALIFORNIA GIRL HOPES
TO WE'D H. K. THAW YET
Writes That Ignoring Farm Man
ager Better Look for Another
Job if Plans Materialize.
By the Associated Press.

WINCHESTER, Va, October 28.-
Miss Forest Hope Wall of Palms.
Calf, who the past Summer chased
fairy rainbow across the continent
by fiivver, expecting to marry Harry
K. Thaw and become mistress of his
kenilworth estate near here, only
to be ignored by the Thaw farm man
ager, still has hopes of some day real
iZing her aspirations.
A letter received here today from
the girl, who has since returned to the
coast, said: ''I am quite lonesome for
some news of Harry. l would write
him a nice letter, but am afraid he
would not answer 1t.
II don't know yet what I am going
to do about my case, but will write and
let you know if my lawyer here de-
cides to do anything"
Miss Wall claimed Thaw wrote her
letters proposing marriage, and tina
it was at his solicitation she came
East last Summer, landing here with
her mother and brother with only IS.
Miss Wall said in her letter that if
she ever married Thaw, A. j. Con-
molly, manager of Kenilworth, could
at once look for another job

WE'RE ODD PEOPLE

We are peculiar nation. We want decided
cut in taxation. We believe are over-taXed
for the returns we get. But we want approprla-
tions of public money for this or that project
when it comes to helping local conditions. We
forget that all other localities are the same. When
our fellows throw in with the other fellow who is
in the same fix and his folks are demanding al
appropriation, the bali starts rolling and the COM
bination of selfish localities soon gathers strong
voting power with the eventual result of more ap-
preparations and higher taxes. Our congress is
built very much on that plan. 1t takes a hard
boiled president to shut the gate on importuning
politicians who want to show off to their con
stituents, especially during an election year. Ii
he lets one small appropriation slip through, the
gate is wide open for all hands to wrangle ove
their split of the government taxes. We all
praise the fellow who brings home the bacon but
God only knows how much the thin slice costs his
people. His people could have bought carload
of hogs salvaged the spareribs, had sausage, pork
chops, head cheese, picked pigs feet, extra lard
few hams, worked the pig tails up into whistles
then had the bacon he brought home left over.
All at a less price than the bacon he brought
home has cost his chosen people. The big packing
houses lost out as against the bacon politicians
when they attempted to capitalizeathe squeal of
the hog.

POLITICAL GRAZING

There was great deal of heartfelt feeling
rinced against the autocratic bureaus of the gov
nment and their methods of handing it out raw
the stocKmen and others during the so-called
snatorial investigation of conditions IN Arizona
lst year The amusing part OF the grand hulrah
/; that it only resulted in the proposed Stan
eld grazing law and this proposed law only
dds another autocratic government bureau 60 the
um total of what we already have The stock
nen evidently wandered off the droughty reser-
alton where the feed was poor, into the quick
,ands of politics where more supervision and
more costs were tackled to them, or will be II the
StanfeId sucker bill is passed The Stanfleld
oill which has been touted as the saviour OF
stockmen only adds all the public domain into
stock grazing areas and charges the stockmen for
the use of it, with new government bureau
created to issue rules and regulations. The stock
men had lot of fun telling their troubles to che
committee and knocking the existing bureaucratic
bureauS-AND as result of all this hard work
of the senatorial committee, they are about to be
awarded another autocratic government bureau
1t reminds one of the poor fellow who had been
tied to tree in the woods and robbed by bandits
He was yelling "help, help" when another fellow
came along and asked about his troubles, The
fellow tied to the tree explained that bandits had
trussed him to the tree and he couldn't get away;
they had taken all his money except the biggest
part of his roll which was hidden in the lining of
his coat "Ares you sure tied so tight you can't
get away? 2" asked the visitor. Certainly, can't
move a hand" the prisoner exclaimed. Fine,
said his saviour, "I'll just take what you have in
the lining of your coat" He did and went on his
way rejoicing If there is any moral to this little
story, it is Don't let the professional politician
handle your financial troubles; he was political
troubles of his own. -

BRooKHART, THE REPOPoCRAT

The retirement of Senator Brookhart from the
senate was necessity if the theory of party gov
ernment and control was to continue as a fixed
factor in our country On the face of the returns,
the party has lost a republican senator, who has
been replaced by a democrat, but Brookhart's ac-
tions in the senate have rarely been those of a
republican, and as between an uncertain support
er and relatively sincere if honest opponent the
average man would not be slow in making the
choice as to which he would prefer.
Senator Brookhart while wearing republican
label has scoffed at the party under whose ban
ner he was supposed to be enlisted During the
last national campaign he openly Aouted Mr.
Coolidge and Mr.. Dawes cmfwetaoshrdlununnn
and gave his support and sympathy entirely tc
the opposition forces No party can be effective
or worthy of the confidence of the people which
cannot control its own membership. Senator
Butler of Massachusetts, chairmaneof the repub-
Iican national committee is entitled to the thanks
of the republicans of the country at large for the
stand which he took that man to be real re
publican must be one of deeds as well as in words
and the verdict of the press of the country al
ready is that he has done a substantial thing for
the organization in directing this campaign for
the unseating of Brookhart.

MR.. Golfer IS SINCERE. BUT
lPrescott Journal- Minerl

ATI0ScOLC JOuFHdl-M1nerJ
Fred Golfer is in deadly earnest
about his high line canal scheme. In
this he has that which all but an oc-
casional man in politics lacks-sin-
cerity in his convictions. He is, we
should say, the only member of the
high line group who believes inn
plicitly in the proposition, except
those members who are so devoid of
knowledge of the situation as to be
willing to accept the first apt and
well-worded explanation they en-
counter.
For time this paper feared that
the discourses of the high line people
would constitute the most dangerous
dust cloud obscuring the true issues
in connection with Colorado river de-
lvelopment. But if all the speakers in
behalf of that association put forth
as Mr.. Golfer does, there is nothing
to fear. The state will not be so diZ-
zied by disquisitions that it cannot,
| in time, elect a governor and a legis-
lature who will quit playing politics
with the Colorado and unite to do
business with the other states.
The Golfer argument is a jumble of
other mems ideas, enlivened and
made vigorous by the power of Fred's
| personality and the great force of his
| beliefs. He takes from the Honorable
Mr.. Maxwell, the argument that to
ratify the compact would mean to as
sure to hypothetical Japanese
Southern California land
! syndicate an empire across the Mexi-
can border. From E. G. LaRue, the
engineer who has contributed the
1 largest known sum Of facts about the
river, Mr.. Golfer has derived graph,
profile, set of data and the weight
I of an authoritative name. He con-
sistently quotes from the LaRue find
ings and with good effect For to
every man in Arizona who knows
4 anything at all about the engineering
phases of the Colorado river, there
are 40 to 80 who don't know a
/ blessed thing. And this-despite the
/ efforts of the Journal-Miner and other
papers who make known the facts
MIR. LaRue has reported to the gov
ernment.
From other sources-abundant ones
Mr.. Golfer takes the argument that
the logical order Of construction of
Colorado river dams would be from
Glen Canyon down stream. This is
probably a fact, and being one, adds
to the impressive total of Senator
Fred's apparently irrefutable argu-
ments.
The one trouble with the entire
shooting match is that although plenty
of water can be caused to store itself
5000 feet above four million Arizona
acres, the cost of such storing and dis
tribution would be comparable to the
worlds war debt, hence prohibitive.
The high line argument followed to
it's possible conclusion would lead US
to the construction of canal systems
on the order of those magnificent
ones suspected on the dessicated
planet, Mars. The world is poor
enough in production and faces plenty
Of consuming surplus population, but
this planet has not progressed to the
era Of desperation, where the mois-
4 ture seasonally stored in the polar

LAST STAND

Two men were playing golf. After
an iron shot Montgomery ball rolled
a yard or two off in the long grass.
When they found it, Monty picked it
up and put it back on the fairway.
II say" protested MS opponent,
"you can't do that.
"Why not? ?" said Monty.
"It's against the rules said the
other, who picked up the ball and
tossed it back into the long grass.
Monty promptly picked it up again,
returned it to a nice lie in the fair
way, and set himself for another iron
shot.
"But you can't do that, l tell you,
said his opponent, stopping him. You
must hit where it lies or lose q
stroke" And with this protest he
threw the ball out Of bounds again.
Again he picked it up and, placing
it nicely, began addressing the ball
for an easy shot. And when the now
indignant opponent protested again,
Monty said:

do it-and if you don't like it you
can go ahead and sue me-"

WHO BENEFITED MOST?
Tucson Citizen)

American newspaper correspondents
abroad, and American travellers re-
turning from Europe are almost
unanimous in stating that at present
citizens of the United States are none
too popular in European countries,
principally because of Uncle Sans
business-ike policy in insisting that
our foreign debt be liquidated in the
interest of world credit and the
American taxpayer.
There is every indication that an
other drive for cancellation of debts
is under way and that the effort will
be made to have the world believe
that the United States is the only
country to benefit from the war, that
all other nations lost. Even Mr..
Churchill, Great Britain's chancellor
Of the exchequer is quoted as saying
that Uncle Sam is getting all of the
reparations.
1t is a little difficult for the aver
age American to see just how the
United States was more greatly bene-
fitted than other nations by the war.
We had our lists of dead and wound
ed, and we have our increased taxes
which we will not be permitted to
forget for MANY year.
We received no indemnity, either in
land or money, and all that we ask
is that our foreign debts be paid up
to reasonable capacity. But let US
see how the allies shared in the post
war adjustments. Germany claims
to have paid $11 ,400,000,000 in money
and material in the way of indem-
nifty to the allies since the war ended.
The allies claim they have only re-
ceived a little more than three billion.
The eight billion difference is little
error in arithmetic OH one side or the
other. American experts if asked for
an impartial opinion would probably
fix the sum at more than three billion
and less than eleven. At any rate it
is not a sum to be sneezed at.
And in addition to this indemnity
there were some real estate trans
actions. France got Alsace-Lorraine
and the use of the Sarre. Great Brit
ain, Belgium and France got Togo
Hand, Kamerun, Southwest Africa and
German East Africa. England, Aus
tralia and New Zealand got the Ger
man islands in the Pacific, Poland
got slice Of Austria and somebody
lgot Shantung.
None of the spoils went to the
/ United States either in building lots
or money. Evidently Uncle Sam did
mot get it all.

AN ODD POLITICAL STUNT

While we believe that e. E. ENinwood would

somewhat mystified at the action of Editor Bill
Stuart of the Prescott Courier in bringing him

keen desire to defeat Hunt for the nomination.
Cox of Phoenix is an avowed candidate for the
nomination and it is generally accepted that Gov
ermor Hunt will also be candidate. With all the
paid party machinery in the hands Of the Cover
