to the navy department the results OF
firing by the New Hampshire upon
the San Marcos. as the test progressed
may have the effect to renew the ef-

secure legislation by congress to regu-
late the wireless system Of wireless
telegra ply.
Not a message could be gotten thru
to Washington by Admiral Schroeder,
altho the air line distance from his
feet to the navy yard wireless recelv-
ing plant here Is only about sixty or
seventy miles. This was principally due
to Interference OF the many private
wireless outfits being operated in this
vicinity.
The incident demonstrates clearly to
the minds Of the naval experts the
necessity Of absolute control Of all such
plants in time OF war.

The Good Roads Movement

California knows the value Of
tourist trade and loses no opportu-
nity to foster this valuable asset to
draw more millions to the Golfers
of her people.
Colorado is in the same boat and
is making extra efforts to attract
the sightseers with the dollars her
way.
California is today pledged to an
issue of highway improvement
bonds in a total of SIS, 900, 900.
Colorado has voted $1o, 900, 900
bonds for like purpose.
With the matchless scenic beauty
of the Kootenai valley and her trib-
utaries-the swjftly-rolling Koote-
mai which cuts the county in halves
thousands would come here, and
will come here, when we provide
tor them transportation facilities to
easily and comfortably reach the
many wondrous spots of beauty
which nature has so layishly be-
slowed upon the region.
1t is the heighth of folly to let
this golden opportunity pass to en-
rich the community with the wealth
of these passing tourists.
Vote for the bonds on the 28th.
Vote for it as hard headed bus
iness proposition.
Vote for it to better the condi-
tions of yourself and your children,
aud because it will make you money
on the investment.

Bulldozing a People.

Arizona will soon vote to ell1nl-
nate from the constitution already
adopted the provision which relates
to the recall of the judiciary.a 1t is
the only way they can gain state
hood as long as Taft is president,
no matter what their own wishes
are on the question.
When the statehood bill was
pending, committee Of the house
which drafted the bill waited upon
the president and informed him
that the judiciary recall provision
would be submitted alone to the
people for their adoption or rejec-
tion, which would relieve both the
president and congress from fur
ther responsibility in the matter
and at the same time express the
true will of the people directly af-
fected.
Could anything be fairer than
this?
Taft gave the committee to un-
derstand that such bill would not
be objectionable to him, and the
members of the committee, repub-
licans and democrats alike, so stat
ed on the floor of the house that
this reflected the view of the presi-
dent.
The bill passed and the president
vetoed it. What induced him to
change his mind? Why had he
broken faith with the house COM
mittee?
Many people regard Roosevelt as
considerable of bully, but even
be would not go to the extreme
Taft has exhibited in dealing with
the people OF commonwealth.
While the campaign on the adop-
ton of the constitution was pend
Ing in Arizona, Roosevelt dropped
in On the debaters and in one of
his characteristic speeches told them
he was opposed to the recall of the
Judiciary, but he added, "if
you want to adopt 1t, go ahead ,
it's your funeral. They evident
ly wanted it, funeral or no funeral,
tor there was an overwhelming vote
in favor of the constitution as it
stood.
TO get statehood Arizona will be
obliged to vote against the recall.
And they will very probably do so.
But it need not be surprising to see
them, after gaining the coveted
goal OF statehood, show their con-
tempt for the autocrat of the white
house by calling another election
and Incorporating the recall amend
ment-judiciary and all-into the
constitution.
He can't stop it then.
He cant stop it after statehood
any more than he can stop Califor-
mia, which has just voted for the
recall by such an overwhelming
majority that must make the rank
est standpatter scratch his head and
do a little thinking.
1t the people rule, why can't
they have what they want9
