A PROPHETIC CONCESSION.
[Des MONIES CapItalI.

Dies MONIES capital
Theodore Roosevelt could undoubted-
" make the Taft administration a fail
ure during the remainder of the term
He could raise his voice in opposition
or even in mild criticism and Tar
would be poweriess. The Associated
Press appears to have Joined the insur-
gents and is anxious to make 1t ap-
pear that Colonel Roosevelt is going to
rally around himself the opposition TO
the president.
We do not know how carefully the
public analyses the opposition to Pres! :
dent Taft We do not know that the
public realizes that great part of 1t
comes from disappointed office holders
or disappointed Office seekers. Car
field and Pinchot were social favorites
during the Pinchot adnlinistra ton.
They played tennis with President
Roosevelt Their social standing with
the Taft administration has been slight
Hence Garfield ard Pinchot have
sought every opportunity to knock on
Taft. There ara others in their class.
The people in this western part OF the
country do not Put a proper estimate
on the importance Of these social mat
tiers as affecting public men.
President Benjamin Harrison suffer-
ed SO much al the hands of those who
expected office and did not get 1t that
he failed of reelection. While tim es
have changed, still It is discovered that
mans ambitions and his jealoustes are
about the same now as in the days Of
President Harrison.
We do not believe that Colonel
Roosevelt. will Join the insurgents We
cannot feel that he Will turn against
Taft. Those who have known the
colonel intimately know what he used
to think Of some Of the men who have
been at Oyster Bay. He may have
changed mis- mind and he may not have
done so. II IS possible that he simply
wants 10 be clever to all his acquain-
tances.
We do not see what any sane or rea-
sonabIe man can discover to find fault
with in the Taft administration. OF
course, there is Ballinger. but nothing
has been proven against Ballnger. and
the general supposition is that when he
IL acquitted he will retire. altho no one
has any ground for the supposition.
l. is discoverabe that the war on
Taft IS TO have q new and final out
break. Then If President Roosevelt
cannot be induced to enlist in that war,
the Insurgents will go to Beverly, patch
I'D peace and approach the pie counter.
Some of the insurgents have constitu-
ents who are becoming hungry for Of
fee. Such constituents are tired wait
ing. They doubtless would welcome a
comprise by which their appointments
should be made.
But the people of Iowa should drop
notifies and turn their attention to
business. There are many things in this
state which ought to be done in bust
ness way.

The defeat of the conservation scheme
came after several hours debate on
this and a provision seeking to regu-
late water rights, which was defeated,
but an amended proposition will be
submitted Monday which will validate
all existing irrigation laws.
ADDRESSES ON CONSERVATION
Eloquent speeches were made on
both sides of the conservation ques-
tion, those opposing taking the ground
that Arizona will never make great
progress If millions of acres of land
are tied up for quarter of century.
Pioneer settlers on leased school lands
would be unable to obtain title to
their land if the Cunniff amendment
for perpetual conservation carried. An
argument made in this connection was
that 10000 acres, one-eighth of the
total land under the Roosevelt irr1-
cation project, is improved school land;
and Orme, speaking for the settlers,
said all the reclaimed land would go

held.
A saving clause remains of the orig
inal measure, however, which prohibits
the sale or lease of school lands in
amounts more than 100 acres for agri-
cultural purposes, or GAO acres for
grazing purposes. Leases longer than
five years also are prohibited.
MAJORITY VOTE FOR AMENDMENT
The convention decided today it
would require a majority vote of the
legislature to order an election for
amending the constitution, or that
such election must be had on an fni-
tiative of 10 per cent of the voters.
The labor commission proposition was
defeated at the forenoon session. The
convention concluded consideration of
all measures on the calendar of the
committee of the whole. and on Mon
day will probably begin on the final
passage measures as reported by
style of the revision committee. Only
two measures remain on which de-
cisive action has not been taken, those
affecting water rights and regulating
