REVOLUTION
IS A DISTURBER.
Prolonged Conference Of Cabinet
~ Officers Held Today.
MORE COMPLICATIONS LIKELY

Washington, Dec. 21.-The
administration is considerably dis
turbed today5y the revolution in
Santo Domingo. The president
together with Secretaries Root,
Taft and Bonapart, held aprolong-
ed conference today in reference
to the matter.
The usual course of successful
revoIutionists in the island has
been to seize. the custom houses
the first thing. Horocio Vasquez.
one of the leaders of the opposition,
had as his chief ground for COM
plant the fact that Morales, while
president permitted the United
States to administer the customs
of the country. o
Secretary Root may look up
mattersspertaining to an American
receivership of the customs as a
branch of the United States gov
eminent, eand exercise force if
necessary to maintain it.
1t is not at all unlikely that this
administration would consider any
new government Of the island that
may be established by revolu-
tionists as no governmental all.

IN The SCHOOLS.
The Happenings Of Today And YES
terday Are What Should be Known
Want PRACTICAL EDUCATION

The following from the Law
renee Gazette of a recent date we
commend to our educators: -.
There has been much talk of late
in reference to the study of news
papers in schools and colleges.
1t is said that a professor in
Northwestern university has told
his class that each student must
be familiar with the current events
of the day, as detailed in the news
papers, and that no student can
pass in his department who fails
to show that he has a good know
ledge of the doings of the world.
Whoever the Northwestern uni
Versity man may be, he certainly
has the right idea. The events Of
today and yesterday are of. far
more practical benefit to the stu
dent than are the doings of the
Greeks and Romans, or even the
conQueStS of the NorSemen, inter-
esting though they may be when
narrated by a good writer of
fiction. We hold that the news
paper reporter Of today can write
Just as good fiction as any of the
old fellows FROM Caesar down, and
the advantage to the present gen
Grafton is that the pretended facts
may be Investigated and their
truthfulness substantlated or. re-
futed, while we have to take
Caesars word for it. The college
world has grown away from the
idea that a Inan is educated owho
can read Greek and decipher
hieroglyphics. The man who is
educated today not only knows
what the old Phoenlcians and
Greeks and Romans did, but he
knows what President .RoOsevelt
thinks about rate legislation, and
what Congress is likely to do
about it. He not only knows
about the love making of Anthony
and Cleopatra, but he knows also
about the pending divorce case be-
tween Mr.. and Mrs. Corey. The
man who lives in the musty past
and knows nothing of waat the
people now on earth are doing
ought to be in the tombs of the
Pharaohs instead of displacing
atmosphere that live DeopIe'need.
And the man who is not in touch
with the world of today through
the medium of the live, clean
newspaper ought not to be given
room on earth.

few minutes before the police
did, and were engaged in try

some beer at a certain saloon, indicat-

and a warrant was procured for his

though he lives next door TO Arizona,
knew until he came almost as little OF
the valley as any of the congressman.
He had heard that farming was
carried on here to some extent and
that certain fruits could be grown. He
had never heard Of the oranges and
alfalfa He had been led to suppose
that the valley was a little strip of
cultivated land between two rows of
hills. and his idea of the irrigation en-
tet prises of the valley already i'm eff

A BUNCH OF CONVICTS
Sheriff HoucK of Navajo Brings in a
Block of Five.

Sheriff Houck, of Navajo county,
arrived in the city yesterday morning
with five convicts destined for Yuma.
The sheriff was accompanied by The
OdOre Shefflin. The most important of
the prisoners is a man who is known
as w. Smith, who is sentenced to fiji
teen years for holding up q saloon and
gambling house in WinslOw last
spring This heavy sentence was not
imposed upon him wholly for that Of
tense, but mostly for the desperate re-
sistance he made when he was arrest
ed In the fight his companion, John
Shaw, was killed, Sheriff Houck es
capped by a hair, and Smith himself
was badly wounded.
The sheriff got on the trail of the
robbers soon after the commission Of
the crime, and, accompanied by a dep
uty, overlook them Canyon DiablO.
When they were called upon to sur
render Shaw replied by firing. A gen.
eraI exchange of shots followed, in
which the coat of the sheriff was cut
in front. AS Shaw aimed at him he
had just time to swerve out of the
way of the bullet that was intended
for his stomach. He then shot and
killed Shaw. Smith was aiming at the
sheriff when he was brought down by
the deputy.
The other convicts are a Mexican,
found guilty of assault with a deadly
weapon, four years; another Mexican,
guilty of the same kind of a crime,
three years; forger, two years, and
an Indian who had become so highly
civilized that he was able to raise a
check, one year.
Sheriff Houck left last night for Yu-
ma with the prisoners.
