THE PRELIMINARY
EXAMINATIONS

While it is not true that a man
may be thrown into jail by an ex-
amining Justice of the Peace and
kept there until the succeeding
term Of the district court without
shadow of cause, if he has sense
enough to apply for a writ Of
habeas corpus, yet the following
editorial from the Globe Times
contains many truths and strong
points that deserve more than
passing notice:
"That part of our criminal code
providing for preliminary exam
ination without a jury and without
the right to change Of venue, is
an outrage on both the accused
and on the tax payer. Under its
operations, citizen may be
thrown arbitrarily into an already
overcrowded Jail and kept there
until the succeeding term of the
district court without u shadow of
a cause.
"In Arizona as a rule, justice
of the peace is little more than a
pocket piece for the district attor-
ney. He seems to become swal-
lowed up in the individuality of
the public prosecutor. He forgets
that his court within its little
sphere is clothed with the same
sacred, Inherent authority as any
other court.
"In nine cases out of ten ne will
try criminal case with his eyes
shut, and when it is closed, merely
look up to see if the district attor-
ney turns his thumbs down, and
he almost invariably does. He
then consults the district attorney
as to the amount Of bonds to i'm
pose, he calls on the district attor-
ney to approve the bond when he
ought to do these things himself,
and he gets 50 in the habit of
hanging onto the district attor,
neys coat tail that he allows him
self TO be warped by the presence
of that august individual, even in
civil cases. We respectfully sub
NIT that there is n crying need Of
an over hpuling ofthis unjust and
illogical system"

PERIL OF TOO MUCH LEARNING

Andrew Carnegie's proposal to
found q S10,000,000 national uni
versity in the United States leads
German educators to declare that
the iron philanthropist threatens
to flood hls country with the same
surplus intellectual talent with
which Germany is supplied.
Kekule Won Stradonitz, rector of
the University of Berlin, says:
"America must beware lest the
interests of higher education are
nursed at the expense Of native
spirit and natural intelligence.
Too much learning, if not dan
gerous, is at least an Improbable
thing. We in Germany are suffer
ing from it. We are burdened
with an unproductive class that
looks with Scorn on anybody
whose education has taught him
merely the art of breadwinning.
China's progress was arrested by
the domination Of just such an
aristocracy Of culture. The evil
maniiests itself in Germany i'll
the existence Of an idle element
which for lack of other occupations
serves as the recruiting sergeant
for the enemies Of social order.
"The cardinal feature of Ameri-
can schooling, as viewed in Eu.
rope, is the fitting of men and
women for life's battle. In the
real Darwinian sense this principle
finds splendid vindication in the
strength of Americas position in
the world at the present day.
Carnegie's technical school endow-
ments showed the the true Ameri-
can spirit; his latest proposal in
dicates q departure which, in my
opinion, is not half so commend
able"

THE Bulletin has never had any
use for the 2lst Legislature, along
with other Republican sheets. Yet
without some of the laws passed
by that Legislature law abiding
and liberty loving people could not
live in Arizona. Among the class
we refer to that were passed by
the last Legislature are the follow
ing: Paragraph 1882, Revised
Statutes, says: persons who have
been convicted of felony shall
not be entitled to nor allowed to
vote" Paragraph 1924 on the
subject Of registration says: "The
recorder shall cancel the entry
when the one registered has been
convicted Of a felony" Paragraph
1874 prescribes as the fifth ground
of challenge against one offering to
vote: "That he has been convict
ed of felony" And yet after do
ing such work as this Bro. Kelly
has no use for the last Legislature.

AMERICAN PRESIDENTS.

Two presidents of the United
States were elected by the whig
party during the twenty-five years
Of its existence as an organization.
These were William Henry Harri-
son and Zachary Taylor. Both
died in Office. The republican
party, has elected in forty-one years
six observation-disclosures, Grant,
Hayes, Garfield, Harrison and Nc
Kinley. Three Of these-Lincoln,
Garfield and McKinley-were as,
sassinated. This is q startling and
tragic record. The democratic
party has been in existence 1l0
years. During half that period it
has been in power in the nation.
1t elected nine presidents Of the
United States-Messrs. Jefferson,
Madison, Monroe, Jackson, Van
Buren, Polk, Pierce, Buchanan and
Cleveland. Five of these, namely,
Jefferson, Madison, Monroe, Jack
son and Cleveland, served two
terms each. Of the entire nine
democratic presidents elected in
10 years not one died in Office.
1t is worthy Of note also that the
only ex-president living is demo
crat.

DURING the year just closed the
business transacted in Stafford has
more than doubled, and the prin-
cipal cause of this is the iudic-

tisement. The GUARDIAN is looked
over as carefully each week to see
what inducements it's advertise

We understand that good deal
of fault has been found with those
merchants of the valley who have
decided to do no more credit bust
ness. If this proposition is looked
at in an unprejudiced manner it
must be admitted that it is Il good
thing. Inside Of Il year those who
have been in the habit of running
accounts at stores will thank
those who have put stop to the
credit system. Under the credit
system things are usually purchas
cd that are rot needed and a high
or price is usually paid Adapt your
selves to the conditions. Sell
nothing on credit, then you will
not be compelled to ask your mer-
chant for credit. If the present
plan is carried out, the entire cred
it system of this valley will be
abolished and everybody will have
cash with which to purchase what
ever they need.
AN old-timer dropped into our
Office the other day, and after un-
loading his mouth of a halfpound
plug of climax, said: when | was
a boy we read our lessons some
thing like this: See the COW? Is
the COW nice? Yes, the COW can
run. Can the COW run as fast as
the horse?' But the latest up-to-
date style of reading by the aver
age kid is as follows: Get onto
the COW. Amt she butte? Sure,
she's corker. Can the COW get
a move on herself? Can she hum
like horse? Nav, she amt in it
with a hoss."

PEOPLE have wondered for a
long time what motive Secretary
Long, of the Navy, could have in
trying to discredit Schley, and give
the credit to Sampson for winning
the great naval battle off Santiago.
1t has been attributed to politics
and all sorts Of things. Politics
had ething to do with it, but
the fact still remains that "blood
is thicker than water;" Secretary
Long and Admiral Sampson are
brothers in-law.
Graham guardian., 1902-01-10

DEwEY's part of the report is
worth remembering just at this
juncture. He said: Commodore
Schley was the senior officer OF
the squadron off Santiago when
the Spanish squadron attempted to
escape on the morning of July g.
1898. He was in absolute com
mand and is entitled to the credit
due to such commanding officer
for the glorious victory which re.
suited in the total destruction of
the Spanish ships"

the people, with some hope of adoption, the
necessary amendments to make our funda-
mental law meet the requirements of this
and succeeding generations. New evils, as
they arise, may be met by new safeguards
in the constitution and the well-being Of
the state preserved. Such palpable evasions
OF the spirit, though perhaps not Of the
letter, of the constitution as the present
system of deputy commissioners" and
Secretaries of boards" could be swept away.
If new executive officers were needed they
might. If the people willed it, be called into
being. The dignity of the supreme court
and it's worth to the state might be in
creased by an addition Of judges to it's
number and a compensation fitting the po-
sition. Questions relating to the revenue,
to the government of cities of the metro
politan class and other changes now urged
by the best thought Of the state might be
submitted to the people with some hope Of
favorable action.
1t should be the duty, then, OF every voter
in the state to cast his vote at the approach
ing election, knowingly, either for or
against the proposed amendment to the con-
stitution. II is important that he vote in
favor of the amendment, but 1t Is more
important that he vote upon the proposition

Amendments by IA Majority of
the Votes Cast on Such

FAIRBURY, Neb, Oct. $40 the
Editor OF The Bee: Twenty-seven years
ago a constitutional convention was held
in the state OF Nebraska, the result Of
whose labors was the constitution under
which we are now living. At the time this
constitution was adopted the population Of
the entire state was less than a quarter Of
a million, while now over a million people
live within its borders, The settlements
were mainly confined to the eastern one
sixth Of the state. communication was dim
cult, except along the main lines OF the
Union Pacific and Burlington G. Missouri
railroads. Comparatively few miles of rail-
road existed and were In operation. whereas
now nearly 5000 miles are operated within
the state. The telephone was not then in
use, the electric railroad was only a dream,
the packing industry was non existent In
the state and manufacturing was only in the
germ, over a quarter of a century OF time
and q degree of achievement greater than
the time alone would warrant mark the
change between the Nebraska of that day
and OF this.
But with all the changing conditions OF
the state we have been bound and tram
meled in our social and governmental de-
Velopment by the straitiacket OF our 1875
constitution. For the most part an ad-
mlrable document, its chief defect lies In
the lameness of the provisions providing
for its amendment. Changing time brings
changed conditions. and the fundamental
Law should be rigid enough to be certain
and sure and yet elastic enough 80 that new
sxigencies could be met by new provisions
