A Comment

[The Sentinel is in receipt of the following communication, to which it is pleased to give space. The sentiments contained therein are, of course, to be regarded as the writer's own. as those cOn- tained in Q recent editorial in this paper to which he refers, were considerably less radical in nature]:
 J. w. Darlington,
 Editor Yuma Sentinel.
 have just read in the Senti- nel of September 29th, 'The New Order" l think it is just right. Government is an inven- tion as much as the steam en- zine. It would be curious if we cannot improve on it as we have on other works of men. The constitution of the United States was written by the light of whale oil lamp, and the men who wrote it travelled to the conven- ton in mud wagons or horse back, or along the ecoastin sloops. Can it be supposed that those men, after making the weary journey as they had to, could write an instrument that will govern people who read it by an electric light and go to eonven- tions in steamships or palace cars at a 60- mles-an hour gait? Oh, no. Government, like every thing else, must keep pace with the times. Moses wrote laws that did very we'll for the Jews in his time, but when they ran up against the laws of an en- frightened race like the Macedo- nians or the Romans, they did not last long as a government, and they have been scattered from the days of Alexander the Great to the present day-the subjects of all other nations.
 Our forefathers wrote as fine a constitution as could be for the times, and l have no doubt if they could have seen the changes ahead they would have written it different.
 With best wishes, l am
 Yours truly,
 J. A. MELLEN.

Swedish Immigration

So large and steady 8 stream of people has come from Sweden Co this country for the past gen. eration that those who remain at home are disturbed. A national society for the Encouragement of emigration is working actively to check the tide. Officials of this organization are now tour ing the United States, studying conditions and seeking way to offset the greater advantages and opportunities offered here. Scan dinavianS are among the most desirable immigrants received by tbis country. Sweden IS not to be blamed for disfiking to lose such sons and daughters, but the lure of America will no doubt continue to be too strong for them to resist.

Arizona Shelters Busy

General Manager w. A. Drake of the division of the Santa F'e railroad running into the Parker (Yuma county( country, says the indications are that every indus try in this country will this win- ter receive new impetus from the new line of road. And he says the company IS making ample preparations to handle the busi- ness.
 "We are putting our lines in the best shape possible" says MT. Drake, anticipating a phe- nomenal increase in business. The daily output of the Hum boldt smelter is oyer 300 tons of ore, which is soon to be increas- ed. The new train service from Phoenix to the coast by way of the A. 6 c. line has strengthen ed the growth of the towns and of all the country en route, and the through train to California, familiarity known as the 'Phoe- nix, is constantly increasing m popularity and patronage.

Landing Day

A pageant of American histo- ry as a part of the public and parochial school course of in str0ction is an innovation which marked the celebration of Land ing Day, October 2.
 Not since the worlds fair has Chicago made such preparations in honor of the discovery of America. The revival of inter- interest in Columbus day is not confined to Chicago alone, bat notable exercises commemora. tive of the day when the discov- erer first landed on the Western Hemisphere were held in other parts of Illinois and in various sections of the country.
 The Chicago movement was founded on 8 patriotic desire to impress upon the school children of the city in manner they will always remember the importance of the achievement of the intrep i'd mariner. In addition to the supplementary aid to memory resulting from the staging of the principal events connected with the voyage Uf discovery and the landing, an indelible impress will naturally be left of the moral qualities which made the name of Columbus immortal. The lesson of his tenacious adherence to his purpose in the face of un- told odds is graphically impress ed uron the minds of the youth of the city, and it is hoped the pageant will serve the useful pur- pose of inspiring grown-ups as well as youngsters with the cour- age that irn bued Columbus.

Monopoly by Patent


 Our tariff laws may be respon- sible for some of the trusts, but many of the most oppressive mo- nopolies in the country are quite independent of tariff schedules. Some of these monopolies owe their existence to our patent laws. Among these is the Unit ed States Shoe Machinery com pany, winch extorts tribute di- rectly from every manufacturer of shoes-and indirectly but none the less progressively from every buyer of shoes. This concern is

supreme in this country and is
 fast extending it's hold on foreign countries.
 According to the Providence Journal auxiliary companies have been established in Canada, Great Britain, France and Ger many, the parent" company's s control of the patents covering shoe manufacturing machinery give it the control of the manu- facturing business. The profits it manages to obtain from it's monopoly, says the Journal, may be judged from the fact that it has paid six per cent dividends upon it's preferred stock and eight per cent dividends upon it's common stock from the very be- ginning, and has twice within four years paid stock bonuses of twenty five per cent and ten per cent respectively.
 No one would suggest, of course. that the theory of pro tection to inventors which the patent system illustrates should be abolished. But this theory does not necessarily contemplate the creation of an indefinite mo- nopoly. Both in the patent and in the copyright term is fixed for the expiration of exclusive control. This provision, upon it's face an arbitrary limitation of private rights, is in effect simply another illustration of the tendency of every civilized society to consider private rights in their broad relations to the public good. No man who Is brought into association with his fellows may do as he likes with bis own. The point to be considered is how far public policy requires interference with individual action. In the view of nest persons there is ;l happy mean between sociaiistic pater- nalism and extreme laissez faire doctrines. It may be difficult to find, as in the case of this shoe machinery monopoly; but some where there must be a means of protecting the consumer from oppressive greed. Perhaps it may be found in an examination of the system of leases by which something like an indefinite per petuation of the patent monopo- ly seems to be secured. That seems to be the chief reliance of the United Shoe Machinery con- pany at present.

Constitutional Convention

The convention of delegates elected to frame a constitution for the new state of. Arizona was called to order at 12 o'clock noon Monday, in the capitol building at Phoenix, by Judge A. c. Baker of Maricopa county, the oldest member of the body. The order of business was begun by the election of a president of the body, George w. P. Hunt of Gila county securing the honor.
 Hunt was chosen as the demo cratic candidate for the presid- ing honor at q caucus of that party's delegates held Monday morning. The names of four candidates were considered Hunt of Gila, Winsor of Yuma, Alfred Franklin of Maricopa and Morris Goldwater of Yavapai. Winsor led at the start. Gold water dropped out on the second ballot and when Winsor saw that his election was improbable, his votes were tbrown to Hunt, the result of the fourth and final ballot being: Hunt, g; Frank lin, IS.
 The caucus then chose A. W. Cole of Douglas us chief clerk of the convention.
 The republicans selected Judge B. N. Wells of Yavapai as their candidate for the presidency and cast their votes for him. The party division in the convention stands fl democrats and II re- publicans.
 In accordance with the en abling act, the convention form. ally adopted the Constitution of the United States as funda- mental procedure.
 Various committees were ap pointed. The committee on ere dentIals included Delegate Fred L. Ingraham of Yuma.
 A committee of seven was re- ported to draft rules for the con vention, of which Mulford Win sor of Yuma was elected chair man.
 The oath of office was adminis- tered to the delegates by Chief Justice Kent.
 A resolution introduced by Winsor barring all persons not delegates or attaches off the floor was passed, thus preventing any lobbying.
 The committee on committees reported in favor of the appoint ment of twenty one designated committees to handle the work of the convention.

Little Law Protection

The failure on the part of the Tucson police to apprehend any of those implicated in the two plainly incendiary fires which destroyed the Southern Pacific shops in that city, has brought forth some emphatic comments from Col. Epes Randolph and Superintendent Whalen, to the effect that Tucson need not an- ticipate the rebuilding of the shops nor any other railroad construction unless the railroad company could be guaranteed the proper degree of adequate police, and law protection. It is. declares Col. Randolph, prac
 tically impossible there to secure convictions in the few instances wherein those guilty of offenses against railroad property are arrested. In response 10 this protest, citizens of Tucson have organized a law and order league to devote especial atteHt'on to assisting in bringing offenders against the railroad to justice,

Not only have many great in duStrIal concerns taken a stand in recent years against the em- ploymeHt of drinking men, bat one of the strongest of the labor unions, the Brotherhood of To, comotive Engineers, insists up on absolute sobriety among it's members, and shows no mercy to offenders. It is easy to see what this means to all who tray el on railroad trains and to the cause of temperance and total abstinence.

Army Engineers
 Inspect the Yuma
 Reclamation Project

The board of army engineers, six in number, appointed by President Taft to inspect the various reclamation projects o1 the west and report to him their views as to the proper amount each should be awarded out oi the special appropriation of SEQ, 000, ,OO0 by congress, spent Fri day in Yuma, arriving on a spe- cial train at noon from the Im- perial valley, via Calexico. They were met by Director F. H. New ell, Supervising Engineer Louis c. Hill and Project Engineer F. l.. Sellew, of the reclamation service, as we'll as committee of leading citizens of Yuma, and taken at once to Laguna dam and shown the utility of that great engineering work.
 The party included Brigadier General William l.. Marshall, U. s. A., retired; Lieutenant Col. John Riddle, Lieutenant Col. William C. Lang6tt, Major Will- liam K. Harts, Major Charles w. Kutz and Major Harry Burgess. The five last named officers are members of the U. s. Corps of Engineers: General Marshall is the army officer holding the po- sition of advisor in engineering matters 10 Secretary of the Inte- rior Ballinger.
 Returning from Laguna dam, the party were whirled around Yuma valley in autos and then wined and dined by the Yuma County Commercial Club. In the evening a reception was held upon the lawns at the reclama- tion headquarters and the resi- dents of Yuma, the valley and the reservation farms were af- forded an opportunity to meet the distinguished guests. Danc- ing terminated the occasion.
 The board of engineers report to the president alone, and until after this is done, their conclu- sions remain locked up mentally. Colonel Riddle, however, deliv- cred brief address to the con course at the reception, in the course of which he made the sig niticant and encouraging state ment, "Your troubles are nearly Iover.' More slight hints as to the friendly feeling Of the board were dropped by other members. P. J. Miller, president of the Commercial Club, and c. D. Baker supervised the general arrangements of the entertain ment. The success of the lawn reception is chiefly due to the following committee of ladies: Mrs. F. l.. Sellew, Mrs. P. J. Miller, Mrs. R. G. Stitt, Mrs. George H. Redwood and Mrs. J. s. Garvin.
 Before their departure for Phoenix communication was presented to the engineers set ting forth the facts concerning the delayed construction of the Yuma project, due to the non- availability of funds in suf6cien- cy, and the precarious condition, in consequence, of Yuma valley land settlers who had trusted to the original predictions as to the speedy completion of the project. It was signed by the following officers of the Yuma County Wa ter Users Association J. $. Garvin, president; R. A. Me- Pherson, ". G. Crowder, A. Y. Greer, John Gandolfo, George M. Schutz, C.. M. Thurman, board of governors; R. G. Stitt, secretary.
