C. Griscom of the Republican county
committee said today that the Taft
Roosevelt conference yesterday would
not have the effect of changing in the
least the plans of the progressives in
their campaign against the "old
guard" and for control of the Republi-
can state convention. He reiterated
that he was perfectly satisfied with the
result. Mr.. Griscom said he did not
expect to see Colonel Roosevelt today.
If the question of an endorsement by
the Saratoga convention of President
Taft for 1912 was discussed at ALL Mr.
dent and Colonel Roosevelt. The sub
ject was not discussed in his presence.
Reports from progressives upstate,

$40 of the 1,015 delegates will sup
port Colonel Roosevelt for the tempor-
airy craftsmanship, while "old guard"
leaders claim about $50.

 SUIT FOR DAMAGES
Other Business in the District Court
 Yesterday.

In the district court yesterday most of the day was spent in the trial of the suit for s11.500 damages brought by Lon Lancaster against Clinton Campbell. Only a few wit nesses were examined and it is likely the case will take up most of to- day. MT. Lancaster was employed by MT. Campbell as contractor in the construction of the National Bank of Arizona building. A year ago last summer, while engaged in excavation for the foundation. or rather in tear ing out the foundation walls of the building that formerly stood on the same site. MT. Lancaster was per manently injured by a caving in of the wall or bank

 The slaughter was now well under way The next section, No. 29, was really the Feeney measure especially legaliZing strikes and boycots. Judge Baker demanded it's death, and MT Feeney. believing that some part of it would have to be sacrificed to the prevailing temper of the committee, amended the motion of Judge Baker to strike. by proposing to cut out all reference to boyCots This amend ment was lost, and the Baker motion prevailed.
 The Slaughter Continues.
 Then came section 20 to the block:
 Any person accused of violating or disobeying, when not in the pres ence or hearing of the court. or judge sitting as such. any order or injunc- ton or restraint, made ar entered by any court or judge of the state shall, before penalty or punishment is inn posed. be entitled to a trial by jury as to the guilt or innocence of the accused In no case shaIi q penalty or punishment beimpOsed for con tempt. until an opportunity to be heard is given"
 Judge Baker moved that it be stricken out Somebody" would read this constitution, he said. and would not be pleased to see anything like that in it. We have gone far enough in this line. far enough" he added.
 Mir. Webb objected to the provision on the ground that it was purely leg islative, whereupon MT. Feeney was moved to observe: Yes. everything we want is legislative and everything you want is purely organic" The sec ton went the way of the rest.
 On this question MT. Cunningham made a strong speech. in which he deprecated the hostility which had been manifested to the courts throughout Mild efforts were made to cut out most of the remaining sections on the ground that while they were harmless they were not useful. but by this time the com mittee had been satiated with blood. so that only one more section fell and that because nobody could tell what it meant. except that 1t had been seen in other constitutions. It was section 3i:
 "A frequent recurrence to funda mental principles is essential to the security of individual right and the perpetuity of free government"
 The declaration. ar what was left of it. was laid as 1e as a completed task. and the committee rose. recom- mended the adoption of it's mutilated remains. That was done. and the convention took an adjournment un- til this morning

With the intention of completing the last leg of their long journey from coast to coast, by going over the Los Angeles to- Phoenix road race course. Mir. and Mrs. A l.. Westgard, Ray McNamara and Harry C. Drum. left yesterday morning. after having spent part of two days in this city. They had spent the best part of the day before in consultation with C.. Purdy Bullard. of the Maricopa Au tomobile Club; W. D. Tremaine, who drove the Pope Hartford in the great race, and others who are familiar with the course. and secured much data which they believe will he valuable to them in making the best of the roads they will encounter.
 It seems quite likely that the com ing of Westgard at this time will have beneficial effect in that more at tention is likely to be given the mat ter of better roads in the northeastern section of the territory. It has been pointed out tO the territorial engineer by Mir Westgard that no great amount of road repairing will he necessary to place Arizona on a footing with the best sections through which the party has passed and the advantages to be gained by such roads have been shown to be many.
 MT. Westgard expects to return to Phoenix sometime in the near future for the purpose of making a side trip to the canyon and tO lay out a route from this city to that section which may become a part of the great scenic route across the country.

 Captain Goebel and Jackson were the stars of the Phoenix eleven. Jack son. who played left half. carried the ball across the goal line three times. twice in the third quarter. one of these touChdowns was counted but the other time he was penalized for crawl ing It is claimed that Jackson had called down" but that the Prescott players kept pushing him.
 In the fourth quarter Jackson made another touchdown. but the officials decided that Phoenix was not entitled to the ball when it was done. since. on the previous down. she had had goal to amke instead of yards
 Goebei never kicked better once he punted the ball s5 yards He was right there with his toe every time except once, when he was called upon to kick goal after the touchdown that was counted. and then he missed by a fraction.
 The Prescott fullback was the star of that team He is d big. beefy fel- low. bigger than either Goebel or Jack son. In fact. the Prescott boys are all great. husky chaps. averaging bet ter than 150 pounds. The average of the Phoenix team is under 145

HOW PHOENIX TEAM
 LOST ID PRESCOTT FOOTBALL ELEVEN RETURNS FROM YAVAPAI COUNTY. Three Touchdowns Claimed and One Crediied-That Besstly High
 Altitude.

Having been defeated by a score of II to ,. but also having had a royal good time. the members of the Phoenix High School football team returned from Prescott on the 1925 train last evening.
 The defeat of the Phoenix students carried with it no disgrace. They put up splendid fight against a bunch of mountain giants some five ar ten pounds heavier. on the average, than they were. and in an altitude to which they were not accustomed. To the altitude the byos lay much of the responsibility for their defeat. Throughout the first two quarters every man on the team was panting for breath and they were not in much better shape. though they steadied down. during the last half of the contest.

 Then came this curious provision. section 2S. which seemed tO have es- capped more than the most casual mo- tice:
 No law shall he enacted by the state of Arizona granting any right or privilege to anY person. firm or corporation, the exercise of which right or privilege shall endanger the life. liberty, peace. safety or moral welfare of the citizens of the state"
 Mir. Feeney was the first to ask what it meant MT. Kingan declared that it was the baldest joker that had yet been exhibited to the con- vention. Though a joker. it was more than that.
