branches of trees principally, and
deer chew small twigs and branches,
grass and such like.
Now, deer have grown so plentt
full that they don't find enough of Their
own kind of food. so they eat the moss
on which caribou used to feed. Con,
sequently the caribou got hungry and
disguised and quit. That's why
moose and caribou or moose and deer
get on all right in the same TERRITORY,
but caribou and deer don't get along
any better together than cattle and
sheep out west, and for the same rea
son. There's other reasons why carl
bou have left this state, where they
used to be plentiful. Caribou are shy
animals, to begin with. They won't
hang around where there's numbering
going on, and there's hardly a corner
of the state where the woods are not
full of lumbermen."

There Is a difference OF opinion
among ranohers regarding the pulling
ability OF each horse in a team. Some
are OF the opinion that the horse ahead
Is pulling the most and vice versa.
The draft on each horse depends
entirely on tho relative lengths Of the
lever arms and the lengths OF the
lever arms depend on the position OF
the elsvis pins with respect to the
draw pin, In upper diagram Cd the
elsyts pins and the draw pin are in a

the perpendicular distance from the
draw pin A to the line of draft OF each
horse. The lever arms in this case
are A. D aud A. C. which are equal.

The Preliminary Election.

The city council acted with entire propriety last night in giving its sane tion to the proposed unofficial cleo tion. This election will be an eX- pression of the voters at the polls on the question whether congress shall be asked to pass bill authorizing the city of Phoenix to vote bonds for a municipal light plant. Congress ought to pass the proposed bill. even in the absence of the preliminary election proposed. for whenever any question of so much importance is before the people they should have the right to say for themselves whether they will incur a bonded indebtedness. But if the lawmakers at Washington are in- clined to hesitate in the matter. the result of this preliminary vote will assure them that the people here want a chance to vote on the main ques- ton. And as we have heretofore pointed out, when the enabling act has been passed and the question is squarely before the voters on the mer- it's of the proposition. public discus sion of the plan in detail will be timely.
 Meanwhile. the thing to do is to let congress know that the city is think ing of municipal light plant, and wants the privilege of voting on the bond question. The preliminary vote probably will be practically unant- nous in favor of asking congress for the passage of the enabling act.

Japan. Thus the Taiyo. a Tokio monthly of high standing, is quoted by the Literary Digest:
 "The sensational incident has proved great benefit to Japan. for it has unexpectedly disclosed the real atti- tude of America toward us. In spite of the mutual understanding entered into by the Tokyo and Washington administrations with regard to the Chinese question, it appears from this incident that America is far from be- ing open n-hearted in dealing with Ja- pan. We learn from official sources that bafore the conclusion of the re-. cent conventions with China our au- thorities took the precaution to com municate their substance to western governments. and that the United States. as well as the other powers. expressed perfect satisfaction with the new agreements And yet both Mir. Knox's and MT. Cranes sensational statements inevitably make it appear that the Washington administration has secretly been trying to find fault with the conventions"
 Altogether, the developments of the past few weeks do not justify a great amount of optimism relative to our future relations with Japan. Most people in this country had been led to believe that the immigration ques- tion, at least, had been removed as an obstacle to our cordial relations. The Japanese ambassador at Wash ington, and other representatives of the Japanese government have been insisting for months that the Japa- nese were leaving this country in large numbers and that the mikado was discouraging emigration to the United States to such an extent that it had almost ceased. Within the past two days. however, comes a dispatch from Washington. quoting the com-' missioner of immigration as saying that Japanese laborers are still com ing to the United States in large num- bers, and that the departures for Ja- pan are comparatively few. He has asked congress for an appropriation to enable him to investigate the sub ject exhaustively. and if his state ments are verified it will be only a few months until the immigration question will be to the front again as an irritating feature.
