TO RETURN BUT PUB. LICITY GIVEN SHORTAGE
 FRIGHTENED HIM
ASKS AGENT HUMPHREY TO PAVE THE WAY FOR HIS RETURN
 TO OLD PUEBLO
Letter and Request Have Been Turned Over to the Auditing Department and Action Will Be Deferred Pending Their Final Decision.

PHOENIX, November 14.-R. R. Her bert, the former Southern Pacific ticket clerk in the uptown office, who mys teriously disappeared more than a month ago and who was afterwards found to be short in his accounts, has been heard from. Herbert is staying in the mountains near Redington, about % miles east of Tucson in the Rincon district
 Herbert, repentant for his misdeeds, has written to District Freight and Passenger Agent E. G. Humphrey ask. ing if it is not possible that his shortage can be squared up in some manner.
 The young clerk, who went wrong states in his letter, that he now sees that he was fool and that he was fol. lowing course which must always lead to ruin. He says further that after he fled from Tucson he had fully in tended to return again and face the sit. nation, but that his courage failed him after the news of his sortage had be- come known to the public.
 He adds that he is willing to do any thing to settle the matter and requests earnestly that means be devised by which he can square matters. He states that he is willing to return to Tucson immediately if he is wanted.
 Mir. Humphrey, when seen today stated that immediately upon receipt of the letter from Herbert revealing his whereabout, he turned the communiea- tion over to the auditing department of the Southern Pacific and the matter is now in their hands.
 MT. Humphrey added that further in vestigation of Herbert s affairs had re- vealed that his shortage is about $700 It had been thought at first that the shortage was only about s400.
 No warrant has ever been issued for Herbert s arrest as the auditing de- partment of the Southern Pacific has not as yet turned the matter over to the surety and guarantee company which holds Herbert's bond. The delay was due, MT. Humphrey stated, to the fact that Herbert has wealthy relatives and it is thought that they may poss- ibly make good the shortage.
 Herbert's disappearance more than a month ago was very cleverly contrived. He left Tucson early one Sunday morn- ing stating that he was starting on hunting trip. He failed to return and nothing definite was known regarding his whereabouts until his letter con

found q verdict Of not guilty on the nrst ballot.
Where were the wits OF the prosecuting attorney

Jacob said to Simeon and Levi. We have troubled
me to make me to stink among the Inhabitants OF
the land among the Canaanltes and the Perizzltes. 4"
Fifty years later. when Jacob lay dying, he had
not forgotten that horror. but thus sized up the
adherents OF the unwritten law-Genesis, xix, 8 =:

the proposed Constitution in the Penn
~sylvania convention that he uttered the
words which Mr.. ROOSEVELT adopted as
containing his theory Of governmental
action as President. And when WILSON
spoke of inherent powers vested in the
nation he did not affirm, as Mr.. RoosE-
WELT apparently understood him as
affirming, that these inherent powers
were vested in the Congress, a very diff
ferent thing, as the Supreme Court has
recently pointed out.
WILSON, like HAMILTON, and for much
the same reasons, did not think it neces-
sary that the Constitution should con-
tain a Bill Of Rights, or an enumeration
of the powers reserved TO the people Of
the States, but the majority of the ratify-
ing State conventions having deemed
such an enumeration very expedient
and therefore necessary, the first Con-
gress formulated, passed by the neces-
sary two-thirds majority and submitted
to the several States as a Bill of Rights
the first ten amendments, which were
adopted by the States in the manner
required by Article V. OF the Consti-
tuition. One of those amendments
declared that the powers not delegated
to the United States by the Constitution
nor prohibited by il TO the States are
reserved to the States respectively or
to the people.
On that amendment turned, in the
unanimous opinion of the court, the de-
cision which compelled an custer of the
interviewer.
When WILSON expounded his ideas in
the Pennsylvania convention that amend
ment did not exist, and WILSON could not
foresee its existence. He never from
the Supreme Court bench uttered such
a doctrine as the one that President
ROOSEVELT swallowed bodily and against
which on May 10, 1907, the Supreme Court
lifted such Il vigorous heel.
Nor have the constructions" fore
Swallowed by Secretary Roof yet come
to pass.
