Mr. ttIIdreth,s AlIeged charges.

There is multiplying evidence that Receiver F. s. Hildreth of the land of flee while in Washington lately. did actually prefer charges against Cover nor Kibbey. accusing him of being the attorney of the Salt River Valley Wa ter Users association and of being otherwise engaged in the practice of law. When the report of the action of MT. Hildreth reached the territory The Republican was inclined wholly to disregard it. The story of the circum- stances under which the charges were alleged to have been made did not fit we'll with The Republicans previous idea of the character of MT. Hildreth.
 The evidence now tends to show that whatever MT. Hildreth did in Washington he did on his own motion. He went there for purposes of his own, which he might have foolishly thought he could further by currying favor with the administration. It is a pretty well established fact tGat MT. HiI- dreth suddenly became a joint state hood man. The presidents views on
 
 pretty we'll known. An extremely mar TOW man might have thought that the president regarded as enemies all who were not joint statehood men. It was well known that Governor Kibbey was not a joint statehood man; therefore the administration would gladly learn and feel grateful for any further proof of the unworthiness of Governor Kib- bey.
 This Feems to be an outline of the motive of MT. Hildreth in voluntarily informing the interior department that Governor Kibbey was a lawyer. This astounding revelation does not appear to have caused a great deal of conster- nation within the department since Secretary Hitchcock had been in ire auent communication with Governor Kibbey both before and after his ap- pointment as governor, in his capacit of attorney for the water users asso- ciation.
 So. the information disclosed by MT. Hildreth only confirmed what the ad- ministration already knew and ap- proved
 The only person who could possibly suffer as a result of the alleged charges, is naturally the man who made them. It must seem to the de- partment that a federal office man. aged by a federal official of such men tai processes might well be investi- gated.

Spelling Reform.

Spelling reform has been attempted probably from the date of the begin ming of the written language, but with out having accomplished any results. That is there are no results which can be traced to any reform movement though there have been changes in the ways of spelling words. Most of these changes have occurred through the agency of newspapers and periodicals and they have come about almost inn perceptibly.
 It is quite generally agreed that the sweeping "fonetic" system Is utterly impracticable. It has already been abandoned by all except a few dream CTS. Even if the reform they advo- cate were possible the utility of 1t is doubtful. While it might simplify for foreigners and small children the learning of the English language no considerable part of those who nave already learned to spell could 1e brought to unIearn. There Is also an aesthetic objection which would be diff ficult if not impossible to overcome. DLs iAlS lI4e pIOCeSS OI the Cndnge, Tor instance, the grandeur of Milton, the wealth of Shakespeare and the spiend- or of all classic English literature would give place to grotesqueness.
 There Is a history in many English words which the ''fonetics" would ut- terly destroy. The history of a few of our words has already been hidden. Take our labor" ''honor," favor" etc. As they are now spelled those not familiar with the old forms of ia bour," honour" etc. might suppose that they descended to us directly from the Latin in which their spelling and meaning were identical with those of the modern words. The "u" which has been stricken out showed that the words came to us through the Nor mans. No one would however. fa"or a restoration of the old forms, since their history now that we are used 10 the new can be preserved by tradition.
 No doubt there will be great changes in English spelling, but they will not
