Curry in a Bad Fix

According to Washington reports Governor Curry of New Mexico is in bad with the administration, not for the reason that he is Rough Rider, but because he is reported to have misrepresented the attitude of President Taft toward his resig- nation. It will be recalled that the New Mexico executive beca me peeved over the order of the secre- tary of the interior directing federal officials to cease lobbying and re- main at home attending to their official duties. In an impulsive moment Curry wired his resigna- tion, and the next day he wired the president withdrawing it. He gave it out that MT. Taft didn't want him to quit the job, and it was given out at the White House that Curry had absolutely no au- thority for such a statement.
 Consequently the Rough Rider governors days in office are num- bered, and his foolish grand stand play bids fair to wind up his off cial career, despite the attempt of "Bull' Andrews and Senators Pen rose and Oliver of Pennsylvania to smooth over the affair and put Curry in right with the president.- Gallup Enterprise.

NEW YORK is likely to make the maximum penalty for Kidnapping fifty years, and for extortion and blackmail twenty-five years. It is a very good idea. Crime can hardly take a more contemptible form than either Kidnapping or the levy. ing of blackmail. The prospect of spending the better part of a life time in the penitentiary would be likely to put a damper on that peculiar kind of industry.

Not a single act was passed for it's immediate ben eft nor was there a man named for duty when the governor sent in his list for confirmation.

in the opinion of the Pennington (N. M.) Times, the educational qualification for voters made by the Arizona legislature is right and should he conducive to better gov. ernment.

THE territorial prison now in course of construction at Florence, will be, when completed, one of the best designed buildings for the pur- pose in the west. There are feat ures in its construction to be found in no other building adapted to the purpose.

AN Associated Press correspond ent declares unequivocally that the story of an attempted assault on ex-President Roosevelt by a crazy steerage passenger on the steam Hamburg was made out of whole cloth.

BEcAUtE a man differs in opinion with us is no reason that he should be regarded as an enemy. It is a great mistake for any man to inn agine that friend has gone back on him because he does not think exactly as he does.

REFORMATION OFREFORMERS

Ebert Hubbard in Houston Chronicle.
 Out in the seething world women occasionally walk off the dock in the darkneis.
 Society jigs and ambles by with a coil of rope, but before throwing it demands of the drowning one a certificate of character from her paster, letter of recommendation from her Sunday school superin- tendent or a testimonial from a school principal.
 Not being able to produce the document, the struggler is left to go down to her death in the damp.
 I think I'll start crusade for the refor nation of reformers. l am fully persuaded that our besetting sin, as a people, is neither intem- perance nor grating, but plain pretense.
 We are not frank and honest with ourselves nor with one another.
 The disposition is to cheapen and adulterate and get the start of our fellows.
 We are copper cents trying to pass for half dollars.
 My suggestion is that for whole year we let the heathen rest, resign all public work in the Personal Purity League and declare vaca- tion in the w. c. T. U.
 Then let each man and woman set guard over their own spirit and try to be greater than he who taketh city.
 In other words, just do our work and practice the old, plain. simple virtues of gentleness, charity and honesty, doing unto others as we would be done by.
 By this method we would not have to talk so much, and so could think and rest and dream and love. Pm sure it would be better for our nerves-that are getting outside our clothes-and possibly just as we'll for the heather and drupkard.
 Stop this violent running to and fro and be simple and honest-only for a year! And then possibly at the end of that time we could sit in the presence of one another and be silent without being un- comfortable.
 Let us try being gentle in our iudgments-just kind-and see if we can't reform more wrongs than by going after folks who have made mistake with come alongs and the loud ballyhoo and a brass. plated bazoo!
 Let us be kind-something really that the world has never tried.

PRESIDENTIAL JOURNEYS

INISlDIlVIIHL JOONlNGIS
 It is very desirable that during his term of office a president of the United States should visit all sec tions of the country. It may be very desirable that he should make official visits to adjoining countries, and the absurd "unwritten law" which forbids a president of the United States to cross the national boundary is a relic of ignorance and tribal superstition, to which no future president should pay any attention. It is impossible to over- rate the sentimental value of such interstate and international visits, and it may often be almost essen- tial for president to visit different sections of the country in order to form an intelligent judgment on matters of policy upon which he must act, says the San Francisco Chronicle.
 But presidential journey is costly affair. The business of the country hangs on a presidents neck like a millstone, which he cannot remove even for day. Where he goes must go good part of the personnel and equipment of the presidential office. There must, of course, be special trains and proper care for the presidents safety in- wolves many costly precautions. It has never been possible for an American president to pay these expenses from his salary, and until Presidents Roosevelt's term all the costs of transportation were borne by the railroad companies. That, of course, was a scandal, and in re- cent years there has been an annual appropriation of $25,OOO a year for the presidents travelling expenses of course available only if he actually travelled. The last con- gress refused to continue that ap- propriation. It raised the salary of the president by 25,O0O. but if he travels he must pay all the bills for himself and all who go with him from his own pocket, for no president would now permit the railroad companies to foot these bills.
 The American people have no desire to maintain the splendor of a court. Regardless of the expense, it would be very unwise to do so. What they do desire is that the salary of a president shall be such that a president of reasonable pru- dence can during his term Of office save what will relieve him from the necessity of labor after he leaves it. If $5O,OOO year would no more than do that at the time of Presi- dent Grant, certainly $75,OOO is none too much now. President Taft is not known to have any private fortune, except what he may have been able to save from his official salaries, which must be very little. What he may have saved during his Philippine service he is quite likely to have spent while a cabinet officer. Taft proposes while president to make some provision for his old age and his family, and 1 has let it be understood that there will be no presidential journeys except at national expense. And that is right. Congress should | make the necessary appropriation at this session. The president can not afford to and will not visit this coast if congress makes no provis- ion for the cost of the journey.

BANK ROBBER AND
OFFICER KILLED
Pursuing Citizen Is MortaIIy
Wounded-MinneSota Town
Scene of Tragedy.

White Bear, Mimi, Aug. 5.-Following
a bold hoidup of the First State bank Of
this village today, Henry Paul, the rob
Der, and Fred Larkens, one of the pur-
suing citizens. were shot and killed, and
William Butler of the posse mortally
wounded. One other man received a
wound in the thigh and still another was
shot through the wrist.
The robber, who had been employed as
a labOrer for several days, received his
check for S. early today and went 10 the
bank to get il cashed. Cashier Alfred Au-
ger was the only man in the bank at the
time
Paul offered Anger the check, and while
the cashier was examining it he drew a
revolver. Following the robbers instruc-
lions, the cashier passed out all the cur
rency in the office, amounting to 500.
The rObber fled through the village
streets toward Bald Eagle lake. Anger
gave the alarm and in a few minutes an
armed posse was in pursuit.
The rObber took refuge in a shed about
two squares from the bank and when
the citizens drew near opened fire.
Larkens, who was leading the posse,
went boldly into the shed. He dropped
dead on the threshold with a bullet in his
heart This caused a halt among the
pUrsuers, who retired to sheltered points
and opened fire on the shed with rifles
and revOlvers. The fire was briskly re
turned by the rObber, who in a few min
utes fell, shot through the abdomen.
