Theodore Roosevelt.

Nearly seven years after the enact
ment Of the national irrigation law.
Theodore Roosevelt comes to Arizona
10 help celebrate the completion Of
the first project which was begun I'M
der that law
1t was most fitting that the great
est storage reservoir on this hemis-
phere should be named for Mr. Roose-
welt. for 10 him belongs the largest
credit for the governmental policy
and the law which has given us this
wonderful reservoir Nobody else
could so appropriately take the leading
part in celebrating the completion Of
the biggest of all the reclamation
projects. For this as we'll as many
other reasons, it is a. happy thing for
all Of US that "the first citizen of the
world" can be here on this momentous
occasion.
The formal dedication Of the Roose-
Welt reservoir WILL we have no doubt,
serve to suggest to thoughtful citizens
everywhere a mistake which is com
monty made by Mr.. Roosevelts I'M
friendly critics-those who are fond of
saying that he is not a constructive
statesman" These critics will, if
pressed, concede that Mr.. Roosevelt
is one of the worlds most tremendous
forces for good citizenship and good
government, but they always try to
offset this admission in a measure
by insisting that he has done little to
transmute his convictions into law.
But to hold to such statement con-
victs them of unfairness or ignorance.
The gigantic dam which is to be
dedicated this afternoon will stand
for all time as proof of the fact that
Mr. Roosevelt is a constructive
statesman" The national irrigation
law was by him forced upon an I'M
willing congress. Every dam and ev-
cry irrigation ditch built under that
law is a monument to his far seeing,
constructive craftsmanship.
It was a Roosevelt policy" forced
upon another unwilling congress.
which has given to the government
an adequate supervision of interstate
commerce. 1t was Roosevelt pol
icy" forced upon a timid and hesitat-
ing if not unwilling congress, which
is giving us the Panama canal. 1t
was a Roosevelt policy" pressed for
a time upon the attention Of an I'M
interested country, which is resulting
in fixed laws to prevent the waste
of our natural resources.
President Taft, after he himself had
taken up the reins of government, in
writing of his predecessor. expressed
it as his deliberate judgment that in
the history of our country and our
presidents, Theodore Roosevelt would
be placed on level with Washington
and Lincoln. And as time goes on it
is more clearly seen that Mr.. Taft
expressed the discerning judgment of
his countrymen.

Poor Cooking Home Destroyer

A prominent writer and lecturer
talking on the divorce evil said that
the best way TO stop it is to feed
the brute meaning. Of course. the
man. Then he went on to explain
that it is his belief more homes are
wrecked because of poor cooking than
from any other one cause.
Now this man may not be so far
from the truth, though he may have
spoken facetiously. Good food well
cooked does have n potent influence
in keeping up ones spirits and ones
courage. There are very few people
in this world-men or women-who
do not enjoy to the fullest extent a
well prepared meal.
Test it in your own case. Start
out in the morning with a poorly
prepared and an observed breakfast
Come in at lunch time to another
poor meal placed on table which
looks as if the things had been
thrown upon it in any way to get
them on. Come back To a supper
similarly prepared. Keep it up day
in and day out through a number Of
months and see what happens to you
This is just exactly what many
men have to put up with throughout
their married lives. Is it any Won
der that they form the habit Of fire.
quenting restaurants and hotels in
order to satisfy their natural desire
for good food? And there is no place
on earth where food can be as ap-
petizingly prepared as in the home
Restaurant and hotel cooking never
reaches the scale Of good home cook
ing
When one thinks Of the predica-
ment of the man who never gets
good meal at home, is it any wonder
that he becomes irritable and Gran
ky?"
The woman who finds her time oc-
cupied in the business world compre-
hends this better than any other class
of women. She knows what il means
to be really hungry for something
appetizing and to go home and find
that only the leavings of a former
meal served in ANY old way have
been placed before her. She knows
how disgusting and how irritating II
all is and she also knows how hard
it is to keep her temper under such
circumstances.
And the trouble lies just here. Too
few women have been taught how to
cook. too few care to learn how and
too few have any ambition to excel
in this particular line. And the pity
is that their daughters are being al
lowed to grow up in perfect ignorance
Of the culinary art.
Most of these girls expect to head
homes of their own sometime and
yet they are unwilling to learn the
rudiments of home making. Whereas
it should be the pride of every girl
that she is mastering the essentials
of home-making. and with every pros
pect that in some future day she will
be able to manage her home intelli-
gently and profitably to the end that
all who call it home may find it such
in fact and spirit.
The mother who does not insist
upon her daughter mastering all the
intricacies of home making. including
cooking, is not doing her duty. There
is no good reason why the daughters
of the house should not be made to
feel the responsibility of shouldering
their share of the homework and do
ing it in a proficient manner. A girl
may be rich with every expectation
of remaining so, but she will be a
happier woman and better home
maker because she knows the techni-
calities of her craft.

found dead in his bed at the
boarding house of Mr.. q. W.
Warren in Nashville Monday
afternoon at II 80 o'clock. When

room Sunday evening and his
failure to get up Monday aroused
the suspicious of Mr.. Warren.
Upon trying the door to his room
it was found to be locked on the

prize it open before the room
could be entered. Mr.. Morton
was lying on the bed, half dress

eight hours.

Morton had been using a good
deal Of morphine since he regis

FATAL FIGHT
AT Pittsburg, Ga.-Sam Bobo
Killed-Cause of Fight
Unknown.


Sam l. Boho and Byron Ora
ham, formerly bosom friends, be-
came involved in an alteration
at Pittsburg, Ga, Sunday after
noon at the boarding house where
they both stayed, and when they
were finally separated, Bobo was
dead and Graham was desperate
ly wounded. Graham was taken
to Chattanooga and placed in
the hospital, aud the body of
Bobo was prepared for burial and
sent to the home of bis brother,
L. l., Bobo, at Lvnchburg, Tenn.
Just how the trouble started,
no one seemed to know definitely,
although it is conceded that both
men were to blame and rhe cor
oner's jury that sat on the case
exororated Graham from blame.
The two men had been chums,
staying at the same boarding
house, and being always together
when off duty. Graham was
miner in the employ of the Dur
ham mines and Bobo was employ
ed as a painter for the company.
Sunday afternoon the two men
were together as usual and re-
turned to the house about 6
O'Clock. They had both been
drinking, it is understood, and
were In a room together, no one
else being present. After few
minutes the other dodgers in the
house heard the sound Of angry
voices AMI presently heard sever
al pistol shots. Afraid to 90 in
to the room where the fight was
in progress, they waited and the
two men finally struggled out in
to another room. M
Which fired tile FIRST shot is not
known, but after Bobo had fred,
Graham, it ls said, still advanced
on him and fired five shots, four
of which took effect. Bobo had
only q derrlnger, which shoots
only once, and Graham was arm
ed with 3S caliber pistol. Bo
bo's shot took effect in the abdo-
men Of Graham, but failed to
stop him, and Graham fired sew
eral shots after being struck.
His last shot was fatal, striking
Bobc in the heart.
The two m3n locked together
and struggled over four rooms,
out of one and into another, fall
ing in the fourth room Even
after they fell, Bobo, wounded
four times, and Graham once in
the abdomen, Graham was still
fighting, using the butt end of
his pistol and striking Bobo in
the head. Bobo was shot through
the heart, in the shoulder, just
at the neck, and twice in the
abdomen.
Graham is still in hospital and
is said to have good chance for
recovery.

Resolutions.

AT meeting of the citizens If
Coalmont held at St. Adams
Church on SUNDAY, April Is, the
following resolutions were unani-
mously adopted:
WHEREAS, Rev. q. N. Stanley,
pastor of st. Alban IS Church, has
been called from his labors among
us to receive the rewards of the
faithful servant at the hands of
his Creator, and,
Whereas, his sudden and un-
expected death LAS cast gloom
over our entire community,
therefore be it
Resolved, that we recognize in
the death of Mr.. Stanley the loss
of one of the best friends that
our people have ever known;
that his labors anoug US during
the past two years were devoid
of egotism, wholly unselfish and
devoted exclusively to the up
building of our people, morally,
intellectually aud spiritually:
that our public library, which
has had such an suspicious be-
ginning, had its origin in the de-
voted work of Mr.. Stanley, aud
that its influence, as we'll as the
influence of his precept and ex-
ample, will be fel6 in all The
years to come.
Resolved further, that we ten
der to his family, to the church
he served SO faithfully and to the
children of this community who
have lost such devoted teacher
and friend, our sincere sympathy
and coincidence.
