ROOSEVELT vs. CONSTITUTION

If Senator Rayner's resolution. does not pass (and it is not likely that republican senate will pass it) it will have the effect of caus- ing President Roosevelt to pause and look around to ask, ''Who was it who said 1 was not the whole cheese?" When we come to con slider the great import of this reso- lution, 1t fairly staggers the country to think that d president of the United States has so far over stepped the constitution as to be the subject of a premeditated effort on the part of a large number of senators to enact law that will force future presidents to observe the liri: of their constitutional power.
 The Raynor resolution is as fol lows: "That the functions of the executive shall be limited to the performance of the duties assigned to him by the constitution and the constitutional enactments there under, and that the results be no interference by the executive in the legislative or judicial branches of the government, or with the rights of the states
 The San Francisco school matter called out this resolution, but if we go back little and take into con Sideration the fact that the meddling of the executive in legis- lative matters has prevented Ari- zona from becoming a state we can see how pernicious is the influence of the president when he under takes to exercise 1t beyond his constitutional limit and the infinite wisdom of the constitution is brought home to Arizona people in a way that should make them sticklers for preserving the con- stitution. Repeated encroachments on the constitution by the executive will finally demoralize the govern ment and create a one-man power IS strong as the power exercised by the sultan of Turkey. How any patriotic president can ignore the constitution passes understa nding It would seem as if a man who loves his country and American traditions would jealously protect the people from such encroach- ments and usurpation of power. To l lover of free government it smacks viciously of monarchy and should be rebuked, not only in the senate. but by the people in such a way that hereafter no president will ever again possess the temerity to even imagine himself greater than the constitution.
 The danger to free government is in elevating to high places sma Il calibre men who think that they are great ter than all other men and that when they die wisdom will die with them Arizona Democrat.

The Anti-Gambling Bill

Concerning the proposed anti gambling legislation in Arizona, the Tucson Star says:
 ''It is pleasing to note that the anti gambling agitation throughout the territory is at last promising results. The legislature which will soon convene will take it up soon after it begins business. During the past years many promises have been made to the effect that an anti gambling bill would be en- acted by the Arizona legislature. but all failed to come to full fruition. Bills have been intro huced. but always choked off in the committee, and seldom were heard of again after being referred
 ''Now congress is in good temper to enact such. law. It will proba blv wait long enough to see if the Arizona legislature means business, and if it fails to act promptly. we will have d federal anti gambling bill, which will pro- hibit this vice in all of the terri tories of the United States, and the coming legislature must not de ceive itself in believing that it can postpone the enactment of this law until congress adjourns. and then fail to enact the law, because two such schemes have been played. and the third will fail of results.

BUT EIGHT MORE

ALL THAT ARE ALLOTTED TO
PATSY DWYER UNLESS A

CARSON CITY, Jan. 17.-Patsy
Dwyer, convicted of the murder of
A. c. Williams at Austin and under
sentence of death, his execution be-
ing set for the 25th of the month,
is pacing restlessly in one of the
condemned cells at the state prison
He talks little to the silent death
watch that sits all day in his cell
close beside him, but spends his
time in walking the length of his
narrow cell and gazing against the
stone or steel.
The attorney for Dwyer has been
i'll and the convicted man cannot get
into communication with him hence
his worry. Nothing has been done
in the supreme court toward getting
stay of execution in the case and
Dwyer looks forward now to only
few more days on earth. His at
torney may arrive in time to secure
a stay of execution, but Dwyer says
that he is now out of money and
friends, therefore can employ no
one to look after his case.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 17.-A lette.
written by President Roosevelt 10
Chairman Foss of the House com
mittee on naval affairs has been
made public. The President strong
ly urges provisions this year for two
battleships of the Dreadnaught type
He says that unless we build at
least one battleship yearly our navy
will go backward and thinks that
the money expended on armoured
cruisers could have been more profit
ally spent in first-class battleships
Our ability to maintain the Monroe
doctrine and Panama canal depend
ON our fighting navy. A first-class
fighting feet is our best guarantee
of peace. He urges also the con-
struction of more submarines and
torpedo boat destroyers. The Ameri-
can navy cannot be excused II 1t
builds inferior vessels to those OF
other nations.

The directorate of the Tonopah
Stock and Exchange Board have in
contemplation an innovation which
will mean much to the members, to
local brokerage houses and to those
persons who are dealing in the
listed on the board This movement
is nothing less than the installation
of direct wire between the mining
exchange in San Francisco and the
local exchange. In addition tickers
will be installed, so that altogether,
when the contemplated changes are
completed. the Tonopah board rooms
will bear a very metropolitan APP
pearance.
While arrangements are not en-
tirely completely as yet, negotiations
are in progress, of the successful
outcome of which there can be lit
tie doubt. The expense incurred will
be large, but the personnel of the
exchange is composed of enterprising
men, who are willing to assume the
added expense that their patrons
may have the most efficient service
to be obtained.
Further than all this the question
of installing tickers in the Offices of
the local brokers is also under con-
slderation, and 1t is altogether prob
able that this will be the next move
in the direction of placing Tonopah
in the front rank as a mining and
trading center. The advantages OF
| this latter move are self-evident
There are many persons who are
buying and selling stocks who do not
visit the floor or pit" of the ex.
change board. Under the proposed
arrangement 1t will be possible foi
these people to remain in the offic,
of their broker, and by watching thu

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 1.-THE
first action in what promises to be
one of the most important legal bat
ties between the United States and
state of the Union was taken this
afternoon when the Supreme Court
of the State of California issued an
alternative writ of mandate com
manding Miss Mary A. Deane, prin-
cipal of the Redding primary school,
to admit Keikeiki Aoaki, a 10-year-
old Japanese boy, as a pupil or ap-
pear before the court February IL
to show cause why she did not ad-
NIT him. The action of the court
was in answer to a petition of United
States District Attorney Devlin for a
writ against Miss Deane following
her refusal to admit Aoki to the
school. The refusal to admit the
boy to the school was previously ar
ranged by attorneys for both sides
and formally carried out. Miss
Deane stood at the doorway and re-
fused to allow him to enter upon de-
mand, saying that she was acting
according to the law of California
and under instructions from the
Board of Education. Suits were inn
