THE LAST WORD SAID AS ID HIGH SCHOOL BONDS THE BUYERS WILL NOT ACCEPT
 THEM. The Only Remaining Question ls Dis position of s17,ooo Check Ae-
 companyins Bid.
The Only Remaining Question Is Di'

It is plain now that William R. Compton & Co, the successful bidder for the S150,OO0 Phoenix High School bond issue does not intend to take the bonds and 1t is almost equally clear that the firm cannot be compelled to take them. It is almost equally as clear that the county cannot retain the $17, ,OO0 check of the company which accompanied it's bid. The form of the bid faVors the contention of the bond company It was not sufficient that the legality of the bonds should be established, but it was conditioned that they must be acceptable to the attor- neys of the company. The attorneys of the company have turned the bonds down and they have refused to be con vinced that their objections are not well founded, that under the laws of this territory there is authority given to no one to issue bonds for the pur- pose of a high school district.
 In his reply to the opinion 0: Harry Weber of the firm of Swope, Zane, Busby and Weber. the attorneys for the Compton company, assistant Dis trict Attorney Lyman, after replying to the arguments of Mir Weber against the legality of the bonds, called the attention of MT Weber to the fact that he had raised the same objection to the Tempe high school bonds; yet they had been favorably passed upon by another attorney and had been accepted by the bidders.
 
 that did not alter his view; he believed that the Tempe bonds were illegal for the same reason that he believed the Phoenix bonds to be illegal. So the last word regarding the acceptance of the bonds has been said.
 There is a suspicion that the transi- tion of Arizona from territorial gov ernment to statehood has had some thing to do with the objection of the bond buyers to the high school bonds. Almost any kind of bonds that were issued by the territory were accept able for the reason that congress was always ready to cure defects and place the credit of the territory behind the bonds But, unfortunately in the case of the high school bonds they can have no backing except that of the high school district. The statehood bill takes care of all indebtedness subsist- ing at the time of it's passage. but this debt has been created since the pass age of that bill and it is therefore not covered.
 If it had been provided that all in debtedness subsisting at the time of the organization of the state, possibly the objection of the bond firms law yers to the bonds would not have found expression.
 It is expected that there will be an early meeting of the board of super visors to take final action in the mat ter

SUGGESTION

the Ditches in Phoenix.

In the guise of the reformer. in the same class with Charles Edward Rus sell and Lincoln Steffens, comes w. D. O'Neil with the naive suggestion that the irrigation ditches in Phoe- nix ought to be cleaned of the rank weeds in them. Not only does he make the suggestion but he has formulated a plan by which the ob- ject might be accomplished.
 O'NeiI has travelled some and he states with little fear of contradiction that there is no other city of this country where there are so many such tall weeds growing in the streets.
 Way back east" he said. you can tell them that Gila monsters dispOrt themselves in the streets of Phoenix; and they will believe you if you tell it right. Then when some of these tenderfeet come out here and see the jungles lining the streets they are sure they are populated with all sorts of wild beasts. l think cOndl- tions should be changed-not to de prive the Gila monsters of their

The same could be done here.

ALL IS READY FOR
 THURSDAYS ELECTION
Explanation of An Error in Printed Circular Sent to Members By the Water Uusers' Asso
 citation.

The great register for the special election of the Salt River Valley Water Uusers' association has been printed, and today the ballot boxes and election requisites will be sent to the various districts preparatory for tomorrow's voting. The voting places will be as follows:
 First District-Peoria store.
 Second District-West End school house.
 Third District-Fowler schoolhouse.
 Fourth District-Alhambra station.
 Fifth District-Murphy schoolhouse.
 Sixth District-Water Users office, Phoenix.
 Seventh District-Creighton school house.
 Eighth District-Jordan schoolhouse.
 Ninth District-Mesa City hall.
 Tenth District-Highland school house.
 It was learned yesterday that some members of the association had been led astray by a typographical error in the circular letter sent out by the association, that was not discovered until after the letters were in the mails. It is an accidental mlsstate- ment. as one familiar with the sub feet could see by a little calculation and comparison with the figures that followed, but those who read the letter hastily and did not go to that trouble accepted the erroneous figures at their face value.
 The error occurred in the third paragraph of the statement by En- gineer L. C. Hin, included in Secre- tary Van der Veer's letter. That statement should read as follows: 'The power plant at the south end of the new crosscut will be capable of furnishing 5000 h. D., and even during the season of least use oi water for irrigation will develop S,OO( Ii. p.'
 As the statement appeared the "3, 900 h. D." was only 1900 h. D., cypher having accidentally dropped from the form. The difference. it vii be noted. is very material, as the CT TOT clipped off nine-tenths of the ca pacity of that plant at the low season It is hoped that no one will be led tC vote against the power plant propo sition through this error. though | anyone read the wrong figures and | not later enlightened, he could no be blamed so much for so doing, fo 300 horsepower would be a smal amount for the investment proposed

every branch of trade. Bank failures
number 40 with liabilities of $1S,356.-
287 in 1910, as against "A with liabil-
tiles of only s4,325.914, and yet we
suppose there will be some of the
ancient orators of the Republican
party who will still be talking about
the panic of 1893 during Cleveland's
administration, forgetting Rooseveft's
and Taft's and we are nut over it yet
by any means. The only difference
now and at the beginning of the panic
Is that IL has been with us so long
the people are used to it--a little like
the chickens of the old fellow who
moved so often that every morning
the chickens would lie down and cross
their legs to be tied.
But don't forget the fact that the
panic started under the administration
of Theodore Roosevelt, the mighty
hunter, and 1T has continued under
the administration of William II. Taft
who he made his heir apparent and
to whom he handed down his pol
icies."
With depression in all industries
the only relief the Taft administration
could offer was a dose of extra tax
alton so that the people would be
taxed more upon all the necessities
Of life, thus making everything higher
while their income has not kept pace
with the increase in prices of the me-
cessities of life.
Is 1t any wonder that there should
be more failures under sucn a state
of affairs? The figures given in this
article are not partisan. They are
taken from the most, reliable Com
mercial Review in this country, and
it all shows that the failures iri the
past six months have been greater
I'm number and liabilities than In 1903
and that manufacturing, trading and
banking have been hit hard.
When the panic came on In 1907
the Republican orators said, IF you
will only elect a Republican admin.
istratlon, then this panic will cease
The people elected a Republican ad-
ministration, in 1908 but the panic die
not cease. Then they said, wait un.
| til we pass a tariff bill and then things
will adjust themselves" The people
waited and the Republican congress
passed tariff bill taxing the many
| for the benefit of the few, but tn,
panic is still here. What Is to be tn,
next excuse?

PROGRESSIVE PLATFORMS

BY United Press Wire.


New York, July 19-"I never recon-
mended any man for an Office and do
not intend to thS year l hope, how
ever that there will be progressive
platforms adopted by the various Re-
publican state conventions this fall"
Colonel Theodore Roosevelt in the
above statement made today in his
offices in the Outlook outlined his
present position In the political world.
Roosevelt just had a conversation
with Judge Reynolds Kinkade of To-
ledo, Ohio, whose boom for the Re
publican nomination for governor of
ohio has just been launched. Kinkade
was guest at Beverly of President
Taft on Sunday and II was reported
at that time that he had been 20 K'd"
| by the president and would come to
New York to get the Roosevelt en-
dorsement
If that was the object of the visit,
only Roosevelt and Kinkade know the
outcome. on leaving the colonel the
Ohio jurist refused to make any pub
lie statement or discuss his boom, al
though he said that the latter existed
onl in certain newspapers In his ma
4tive state.
| When asked about the visit Col
Roosevelt said that he only saw Judge
Kinkade for few moments and that
there was nothing said while they
were together about politics. He then
declared that he will recommend no
candidates for Office this year and
made plain, his position regarding the
state platforms
| New York state politics entered
prominently into the Roosevelt confer
ence today Congressman w. w.
Cooks, who comes from Roosevelt 3
home county was closeted with him
for some time. When he left he said;
1--WE discussed the chairmanship of
the Republican state committee and
also the chances for the substitution
of certain new committeeman In a
/ number of districts. We also debated
| political conditions in the state gen.
orally but there was no definite con-
cusion reached
1t was generally believed, that the
loutcome of today's meeting will be an
organized attempt on the part of
Roosevelt and his friends TO secure I'm
mediate control Of the state commit
4 tee.
Chairman Timothy L. Woodruff Is
! to be deposed at the next meeting OF
the committee IL he does not resign
before and his place 1t TO be taken
by a progressive Congressman. Cocks
however refused 70 confirm the report
that this is the program.
Another who discussed New York
politics with Roosevelt was Congress
man Foraker of Brooklyn who said
that he called to tell the colonel that
he will not be a, candidate for re-
election.
II told him that l was an insurgent,'
declared Foraker. "and i also point
ed out that II there was one issue
that might aid the Democrats to win
at the coming election, it was Csn-
nonism."
Senior Don Francisco Leon de la
Barra, the Mexican ambassador to
the United States, called on Roose-
welt TO pay his respects.

ANTI FIGHT
PICTURE LAW
" United Press Wire.

Atlanta, Ga, July 19.-Pictures Of
prize fights between white men are
not barred by the new Georgia anti
fight picture law which passed the
legislature yesterday. The measure
simply prohibits the exhibition Of
moving pictures OF fights between
white men and negroes and was de-
signed to prohibit those of the JEFF
fries-Johnson contest
Senator Irwin opposed the measure
vigorously, demanding that If the
moving pictures we're to be censored
all immoral and indecent exhibitions
should be prohibited instead of enact
ing special legislation to prevent
showing a film which exhibited an
athletic contest"
