A Richmond darky called upon an
old friend who received him in a
rocking chair. The visitor at once OBJ
served not only that his host did not
rise, but that he continued to rock
himself to and fro in a most curious
way, similar to that of person suf-
fering from collie.
"You amt sick, is yo' Harrison?~
asked the caller, anxiously.

rison.
A moments silence, during which
the caller gazed wide-eyed at the
rocking figure.

Third Term Maneuvers
Political observers in Washing

men to the Summer White House
as a part of a carefully planned
and deep seated scheme to bring
about the nomination of Mr.. Cool
idge for a third term. The are

command, in an attempt to check

his party who figure they would
look much better in the White
House than it's present occupant.
Never before, observers hold.
has President so openly set out
to bring about his denomination
this far ahead of time. They at
tribute his moves chiefly to fear
that other members of his party
are making too much Roadway.
Then, too, it must be remembered
that Mr.. Coolidge is making more
money than he ever made. One
more term in office would make
him financially independent for
life. Thoughts of returning to
Northampton and obscurity with
a doubtful income must be far
from pleasant to Mr.. Coolidge.
Professional Politicians Va.

President Coolidge is perhaps
the first and only out-and-out pro-
fessional politician ever to occupy
the White House. From the time
he was elected mayor Of North
hampton, Mass, until he became
President he has made his live.
lihood from public office. The
taxpayers Of Massachusetts and
the country have been virtually
his sole source of income.
Democrats are making much of
this fact. They argue that Mr..
Coolidge, the professional politi-
clan, and not Mr.. Coolidge, the
President, is the real occupant Of
the White House. They insist
that he is much more interested in
his political scalp and
his big political income than he is

Washington, D. c., Aug. %. -
The pilgrims of privilege, patron
age and publicity are doing all
in their power to give President
Coolidge a pleasant vacation. Ev-
cry day a different pilgrim pops
up with some new reason or al
legged fact which he deems par
ticularly indicative of the great
ness of Coolidge and the Greedy
Old Party.
The pilgrims have two objec-
tives in mind. One is to keep the
Republicans in power and the 9th
er IS to bring about the nomina-
ton of Mr.. Coolidge for a third
term. Realizing that both the
party and the President have been
slipping for some time they have
begun a frantic, desperate cam
paign to prevent what looks like
certain Democratic victory in the
Congressional elections.
Pooling the Farmer
One of the tricks resorted to by
Coolidge adherents in their at
tempts to hold the Republican
farmers in line was to have the
manager of small truck garden
ers' association invited to White
Pine Camp. After a pleasant few
minutes with the President, the
truck gardener emerged from the
Executive Offices, smiled and
posed for the photographers.

CURED for this work. When the
measure is printed and distributed
to the voters it should be studied
carefully and We believe that care
full study on the part of the vot-
ers will prove that it is desirable
measure. Arizona has done much
already IN providing an excellent
system of good roads. To do this
practically every county in the
state has issued bonds to procure
the money required for road build
ing. The state has, up to the pre-
sent, met the expense of it's road
building programs by direct taxa
ton and by tax on the consump-
ton of gasoline. Now, according
to the provisions of the Arizona
Good Roads Associations proposed
new law, it is proposed to finance
a five years state road program
by tn issuance of state bonds. The
program if carried out would
! greatly lessen the present cost of
! maintaining the present state
roads as many of them would be
hard-surfaced.
! There has been a prejudice in
Arizona against the issuance of
State bonds for any purpose, to
our mind, unjustified. We can
see no reason why the present
generation should pay the entire
cost of building roads which will
serve the future of Arizona when
the population will be doubled
within the next ten year. With
the assured increase in population
and wealth in Arizona the road
bonds now proposed would be
very light future burden.-(Tomb-
stone Epitaph).

in the welfare and prosperity of
the people.
That Mr.. Coolidge is a profess
sional politician, they say, cannot
be denied. And, they ask, who
ever heard of professional poll
tic:an having the public interest
at heart?
Professional politicians in striv-
ing to remain in office or in seek
ing new office invariably tody to
those who can contribute most
heavily to Their campaigns, to 9TH
er professional politicians and de-
liverers and manipulators of votes,
it is pointed out. Never do they
worry themselves a b out the
troubles of the ordinary citizen or
voter. Their interests and mo-
tives are entirely selfish in their
pursuit of political spoils.
Gangs of Privilege
The fact that President Cool
idge has been a professional poll
tician all his life, Democratic lead
ers are telling the country, stamps
m not as champion of the peo-
pie but champion of himself
and the interests and politicians
who aided and made possible his
rise from the Mayor Of North
hampton all the way up to tbs
Presidency.
AS long as Mr.. Coolidge is Pres
Iident, Democrats say, the ordinary
voters of the country can never
expect sympathetic consideration
of their problems from a broad
statesmanlike viewpoint. Profes-
sional politicians are not in the
habit Of doing that.
In the campaign this fall Demo.
Gratis are asking the country, they
point out, not only to elect 9
Democratic Congress but to take
the Government out of the hands

that Arizona be made a safe place
in which you might live and be

He led the fight to make the large

and he won the fight. He was an

he became, in your opinion, the

opinion publicly throughout the

principles of government that
mean so much to the everyday
