"Infinite Patience, and Justice
 to AL"

to All.''
 Last summer. at the invitation of the reople of the Salt River valley, MT. George II. Maxwell came to Phoenix and addressed a great crowd on the court house plaza on the question whether it would be possible to obtain the construction of the Tonto Basin reservoir by the government. Accord ing to the popular understanding of the national reclamation act, which had just been passed, it was possible for the government to take up the great work upon which the future Of the val ley depended, but it was considered very improbable, indeed, that this community could have such wonderful luck as to get that scheme adopted as a government enterprise. Mr. Max well had been sent for because for years he had kept the national irriga- tion movement alive and had finally led it to victory; it was known that the Hansbrough- Newlands law as fin ally passed carried amendments which had been adopted by congress at the earnest solicitation of Mir. Maxwell and Mir. Fowler, which amendments opened the door for the Salt River val ley to get the benefits of the new law. and it was known that Mr Maxwell had the confidence of the national ad- ministration in a high degree, and it was hoped that he might be able to make suggestions which would lead our people cut of the weary circle in which they had been walking.
 h his address made on that occasion, MT. Maxwell stated it as his firm con viction that it was possible to secure the Tonto Basin reservoir at the hands c: the government. and that althoush there were many difficulties in the way, a practicable plan could be worked out if the people wcaId adopt as their motto, Infinite patience and justice to all"
 It is pertinent now to recall these facts, because the motto then formu- lated by Mr. Maxwell has been fol- lowed by him and by every other man who has been in any way responsible for the plan which the government has adopted. During the months con- sumed in rerfecting this plan there was not only infinite patience" but there has been from the beginning a determination to do justice to all"
 As ranchers come to understand the situation better they understand that justice to all has been the guiding thought in the great work of obtaining the reservoir. It is but simple justice to the many public spirited citizens who have been connected with the movement to say that there has been ID thought on their part of depriving the humblest individual of his rights any more than there has been thought of doing injustice to the most wealthy The plan as it stands today has been accepted by the government as a model of fairness, and although it maS de velop hereafter that it requires amend ment here and there, it is clear from the first line to the last word that Justice to all" is the chief end sought for
 The people of the valley are to b, congratulated upon their wisdom ir following so closely the advice giver them by MT Maxwell last year.

TACT in MEDICAL PROFESSION
As Necessary as Skill I'm Many Cases
That Come Under the Doctors
Abatement.

To succeed in the practice of medi-
cine tact is as necessary as skill. In
~Everybody's Magazine a woman doc
tor tells of the loss of her first OPP
portunity: "a delicate young woman
came f1uf1ng into my Office on a wet,
raw day to know why she had such a
cold. I looked down at her thin ties
and openwork stockings, and expressed
myself with comfortable freedom.
How could she expect anything else
with such foot-gear? She took my
prescriptions in displeased silence and
never came back. l heard that she
described me afterward as quite too
cold and unsympathetic to be a good
doctor; and so perhaps l lost others
as well as her. l had been right, of
course, from the highest standpoint;
but that is a luxury NJ young doctor
can afford. l should have petted her,
babied her, listened to all her troubles,
and introduced the matter of foot
gear so delicately that she would be
drawn away from open-work by the
silken thread of persuasion"

The celebration of Valley Forge
day brings to mind a contribution to
historic literature made by a very
young lady in the Evening Telegraph
short story competition. The writer,
a school girl of ten years, epitomizes
the whole Valley Forge experiences in
the following terse sentences:
There was a Revolutionary War.
The British Re%volutioned Philadel-
phia. So Mr.. Washington took a lot
of soldiers to Valley Forge. Mr..
Washington haden't eny thing for the
soldiers to eat, so they had to go
barefoot. Mr.. Washington felt very
bad SO ne asked Benjamin Franklin.
Benjamin Franklin felt bad to so he
asked the King of France. The King
of France SEM a lot of soldiers so we
licked the British" - Philadelphia
Telegraph.

Modern Athletic Training.

The trainer of a generation ago would
simply have stood aghast at the sweets
and other savory foodstuffs eaten by
your modern rowing or running col
legian. Yet it may be doubted if the
physique either of the individual athlete
or of the nation ever stood at a higher
general standard of fitness" One per-
tinent fact with regard to training is
that both past tradition and present
practice condemn with emphatic voice
the use of tobacco and alcohol and other
indulgences to which healthy man
wonderful animal that he isis unhap-
PLY prone. So long as the main princi=
pies of temperance, plain living and
abundant exercise are carefully applied
to the man in training, so long will the
results be likely to succeed. Every hui
man being living under reasonably
good conditions of environment ought
to be, like the healthy schoolboy, al
ways in a state of training Medical

COST OF TRAIN LUXURY.
Room and Comfort for Passengers
Materially Adds to the Ex-
pense of Travel

1t may be asked why the railway loco
motive does not pull passengers at a
lower rate. Because, says the Engineer
ing Magazine, it gives passengers so
much room, comfort and hig speed that
1t has to carry a ton of dead weight for
each passenger. A locomotive weigh
Ing 100 tons pulls, at As miles per hour,
II cars weighing 900 IONS and contain
ing 760 people, weighing so tons, assum-
Ing the passengers to be men, women
and children, but chiefly men, and to
average 131 pounds each; 1,400 pounds
of dead weight per passenger, when
every seat is taken. But cars cannot
average more than seven-tenths full.
The railway carries free the passen-
gers 1%50-pound trunk, and sends with
him toilet rooms, heating stoves and
bedrooms. These houses on wheels, and
the locomotive which draws them, have
to be made very heavy in order to get
the great strength made necessary by
high speed. If the railway could dis
pense with these comforts and Injuries,
and carry passengers packed closely in
side and on top of l~ow-roofed, ram
shackle, unheated vehicles, like the old
stage, and at slow speed, it could pull
passengers at one-tenth to one-twen-
tieth the price of the old stage.
