CONSTITUTION ENDORSED.
Arizona Insists on Apply The Recall to
 The Judiciary

According to various newspapers and politicians, none of them pro- gressive, Arizona has cluttered up the path to Statehood and needlessly caused delay in the attainment of her great ambition by including in her constitution recall provision that applies not only to executive officials, but to members of the judiciary. The proposed constitution must be approved by the President and Congress before Arizona can be admitted as a State, and the whole brood of stand-patters are now predicting that President Taft will never give his consent until the ob- jectional provision is amended to suit the views of reactionaries.
 Arizona was warned again and again, and it is to her credit that she stood her ground. System" Repub Iicans and System" Democrats from all sections of the country begged her to ''leave the judiciary alone. Senator Joe Bailey of Texas advised her to exclude all "debatable" mat ters from her constitution in order tC make Statehood certain, but she in sisted on giving her people the power to outs faithless and incompetent judges. This is as it should be. Al the talk about the people abusing such a power is bosh. The elector. are quick to resent attacks on con scientious members of the judiciary and there is no danger of a gooG judge being recalled. Perhaps a few real bad ones might, under such a law be sent back to the corporation that created them, which possibility ii what is worrying the System" Re publicans and the System" Demo crats.
 It is now up to President Taft tC decide whether the individual opin ion ot a Chief Executive as to the merit of one of its provisions is or is not sufficient ground to refuse to ap. prove State constitution that in nc way conflicts with the Federal Con stitution San Francisco Bulletin.

ion. The Judge and his wife were gone couple of weeks.
 The appeal to the supreme court of the United States of the case of the government against Fred Light, a Colorado cattleman, is a matter that will be of vast interest to many peo- ole in Arizona. In this case the con servation policy of the government has been attacked with respect to the biz forest reservations of the west It is said the anti-couservationists are prepared, even if the present case goes against them, to attack the governmental policy on the theory that the reservation of the forests puts the government in the position of a big land proprietor without any perogative of sovereignty. In the Light case the government has in stituted an injunction suit to restrain the respondent from allowing his cat tie to tresDass on the Holy Cross for est reserve The case was up for ar gument on January B. The state Of Colorado has joi ed with Light in the fight against the general govern ment.

Phoenix Nav Get Live Stock Convention

Confident that the 1913 convention of the American National Live Stock Association will be held in Phoenix, Dwight B. Heard, first vice president of that organization, returned to Phe- nix last week.
 Both Arizona and Mir. Heard were highly bonored at the 1911 conYen- ton held last week in Ft. Worth. A plan for regulating grazing on the public ranges, which Mir. Heard, as Chairman ot the grazing committee, presented to the delegates, was given enthusiastic approval and later he was chosen vice president, partly be- cause of the splendid work he did on the grazing com mmittee.
 Munroe Mckenzie of Colorado, was chosen President, succe eeding J. A. Jastro, of Bakersfield, Cai. Governor Joseph E. Carey, of Colorado, author of the famous Carey act, was elected second vice president.
 Fourteen delegates were in atten- dance from Arizona and they made strenuous effort to bring next years convention to Phoenix. Denver, how ever, was able to present stronger claims, and when it came to a vote the Colorado capital was named as the place. The Arizona delegates were practically assured of the fol- lowing convention. MT. Heard firmly believes that Phoenix will be named at Denver as the next meeting place.
 One day of the convention was given over to d discussion of grazing on the public domain. For several years the Association has been en deavoring to devise some means of regulating public grazing to prevent overstocking of the range. This year the grazing committee, of which MT. Heard was chairman, formulated a plan. Mr. Heard presented it and the convention endorsed it unani modsly Committees were appointed and other steps taken to have the plan enacted into law.

bearing the title Ely, Nevada
City of Opportunity has made its
appearance. bearing the imprint OF
the Browning printery of Ogden,
Utah. The Record will be charitable
enough to refrain from commenting
upon the general appearance of the

have gotten out a heater piece OF

ton Is passed around for Decoration

pers of Ely have always responded,
They are paying the best wage scale

have always been loyal to the inter-
sets of White Pine county. They ad-
yertise the Il of the county

means for that purpose, and they are
entitled to the support of the com
munities in which they are published
The imprint of an Ogden house upon

throughout the county carries with
il the inference that there is no

and will be so considered by the
public. The promoters of the Ely

get their printing where 1t can be
done for the least money, but If it
