JAMES GIBSON
 LIKELY DEAD
Aged Resident of the St. Johns District Has Been Unaccountably A bsen t From His Home Since Last Monday

James Gilson. an old resident of the valley, almost pioneer is un- accountably missing from his home in the St. Johns country He came to Phoenix last Monday, driving q team, and in the afternoon he started side soda water stand not far from the city From that moment until HOW no trace of him has been discov- cred except the finding of the team yesterday about two miles this side of the junction of the Salt and Gila rivers
 When he failed to return home Monday night a search was instituted the next morning. The searchers first came to Phoenix and failing to find any clue here they returned home going over that country without result.
 Yesterday morning request was made on the sheriffs office for help and Sheriff Adams and Constable Ivy went out to join the hunters. Late in the evening telephone message was received at the sheriffs office from Ivy. who said that the team had been found but that there was no trace of GilSon.
 The search will be renewed this morning but there is no hope of find ing more than a dead body. GilsOn is far advanced in years.

central Asia are not cut off from the Atlantic by mountain chains and hence are open to it's influence.
 In the United States the influ- ence of the Appalachians is not great because the Gulf of Mexico lies southwest of them. Moist West-south- west winds prevail throughout the wear between the Mississippi and the Appalachians, and in the summer a damp-laden monsoon is drawn into the interior, bringing copiouS rains even far west of the Mississippi. This moisture is drawn ultimately from the Atlantic. In the eastern part of the United States relatively dry winds prevail in the interior, but the very frequent cyclones with south to south west winds. bring plentiful precipita- tiOn. The east of the United States. from about 9 degrees west latitude. is the most extensive generally flat region in the middle attitudes where there is an annual precipitation of more than one. meter (39.2 inches) The next largest is in eastern Asia, but is less level All other such re- giOns are narrower coast zones be-
 tween the ocean and mountains, as in Norway, Great Britain. North and South America, New Zealand and the east coast of the Adriatic and the

SALTINESS OF OCEANS

As the salt in the Atlantic and the Pacific has no effect on navigation some may not see why a Russian scientist should devote his time to Investigating the comparative SaltinesS and freshness of these and other oceans But in the world of science every truth is considered important. So Professor Alexander WoelkoW of St Petersburg has made careful study of the salinity of sea water in different parts of the globe, accord ing to a translation made from Russian periodical
 Professor WoelWOk finds most in teresting of all the question why the Atlantic-particularl the North At lantic-is saltier than the Indian and Pacific a fact the more remarkable because it receives the waters of the mightieSt rivers in the world. Into 1t are poured the floods of the MiSSiS sippi and the St Lawrence. the Kon- go, the Amazon, the La Plata and the Orinoco as well as the rivers of Europe Moreover, the influence of the Arctic ocean, which modern geographers regard as a tributary sea of the Atlantic tends to sweeten it's waters, partly through the southward

COLONEl'S PLATFORM
He Calls it "A Contract With the
 People,

OYSTER BAY, July 1S.-The plat ty is to be "a contract with the people" Roosevelt said today. Just as business man signs a contract for the fulfillment of certain obliga- tions. he explained. the new party would sign a contract to undertake certain well defined measures pro- vided the opportunity was accorded it.
 Roosevelt has given his approval to the name national progressive" for the party by using it repeatedly. It is assumed that this will be the title which will be adopted at the christening at Chicago next month.
 As the prospective nominee Of the party Roosevelt is drafting plat form enjoying his ideas He indi- cated that he would use his influ- ence to avoid the twin perils of ultra radicalism and vaguely concealed conservatism and that he hoped the platform would be both practical and genuinely progressive.
 The national progressive party. he said, would go before the people pledged to definite reformative mea- sures of such a nature that it would have practically a program which obviously would be carried out. The ex-presidcnt's personal platform will probably be presented to the Chicago convention on August ,. the day it assemblies.

LONDON'S TRAFFIC IN DOGS
Canine Thieves Find Ready Market
 in Club Row

Many sufferers by the illicit dog traffic disclosed in the last few days appeal for advice as to the best way of recovering their lost pets. The advice was supplied by man who knows as much about dog Stealers and their ways as anyone in Lon don: Go to Club Row and Sclater Street. Bethnal Green, on Sunday morning"
 Club Row is short street on the left side of Bethnal Green Road go- ing east: Sclater street, lined with little shop windows alive with Hut tering canaries, is close by between Bethnal Green Road and the arches or Bishopsgate Great Eastern Rail- way station. Here an open air mar ket of all kinds of live stock is held every Sunday morning and here many of the pet dogs stolen in May fair or Kensington are openly of fered for sale.
 Many widely known persons have come to Club Row on such search. A few Sundays ago a high govern ment official walked into the nearest police station and asked for de- tective to accompany him through the market to look for an Irish ter rier which had been stolen from him.-London Mail.

NEXT SESSION
 SPECIAL 0NE
An Opinion by Assistant Attorney General Carpen- ter Yesterday Regarding Future Meetings of Pres ent Arizona Legislature

Lewis T. Carpenter. assistant gen. eraI, who has been the official de cider" of constitutional questions in the absence of his chief. who is away on his annual vacation, yes terday decided that the one and only regular session of the state legisla ture has been held. There can be other sessions of this legislature. says MT. Carpenter-any number of them. in fact.-but they will all be special sessions.
 And the reason is the constitution provides that the legislature shall meet in regular session only once in two years
 Carpenter says that undoubtedly under the now famous decision of the supreme court in the election case a decision that has brought out a most remarkable feeling of resent ment from the people generally- the legislature will continue it's ex- istence until the second Monday in January. 1915.
 But he says any sessions it may hold in the future will be special sessions. The significant feature of this decision is that the law makers can meet only at the call of the governor; and that when they meet they can consider only such ques- lions as the governor includes with in his message.
 However. it is presumed there will be no difficulty about that The proclamation calling the last special session contained 39 articles; and to cover those g articles about 100 bills were passed and scores of Oth- CTS were considered So it will be seen. the limitations of a governors call offer no difficulties to the legis- lature as now constituted.
 It happens. however. that the de cisiOn of the assistant attorney gen eral does not seem to square with the plans of some of the members of the legislature. They already had decided that the legislature would meet in regular session January 19 next and that it would be at liberty to consider any sort of subject any body might desire. Whether the law smiths will follow their own ideas in this matter or will subscribe to the unofficial opinion of the assistant
 
 Incidentally. it may be mentioned, there would be one advantage in fol- lowing the assistant attorney gener- ars notions. If the governor calls the statesmen together in special Ses- sion. as he undoubtedly will if Mir. Carpenters opinion sticks, there is nothing to prevent them from re- maining in session just as long as they desire On the other hand, if the next session is to be regarded as regular session they would have to quit at the end of sixty days. That is. they wouldn't have to quit exactly. but their salaries would cease and it is not of record that even these patriotic brethren are anX- iCus to labor in the political vineyard after the pay checks play out.

Black sea.
 Of the water drawn from the At lantlc by evaporation and carried into the basins of it's tributaries by winds and diffusion. a portion is re- turned to it as river water but by no means all.
 It is local conditions which carry the vast quantities of moisture from the Atlantic to the middle attitudes of the United States In Europe and Asia. on the other hand, north of 40 degrees north, it is the planetary relations which, in the absence of mountain chains running north and south. carry the moisture of the At lantic even to the shores of the Pa cific.
 The Pacific is bordered on the east by high mountains over whose crest much transportation of vapor is impossible. Tn the middle latitudes where west winds are prevalent and strong, there is copious precipita- tion. The rivers are short and of large volume and the per centage of run-off to precipitation is great. Moreover. there are large gla- ciers and snow fields in the noun tains. Hence loss of vapor in the middle attitudes of the Pacific is small l"-Literary Digest.

ASK PROBING OF The
BIG HARVESTER TRUST

WASHINGTON, Jan. 19.-The po-
litical activities and general affairs of
the International Harvester Company
were discussed yesterday before the
house committee on rules. which is
considering proposed inquiry into
several trusts, Secretary of Com
merce and Labor Nagle participated
in the discussion.
W. II. Green of Creighton, Neb., a
dealer in farm machinery, declared
that the so-called harvester and steel
trusts, the National City Bank of New
York and the great transportation sys-
TENS of the country were dominated
by the same directorate.
Mr. Green urged the committee not
to give the harvester trust an immun-
ity bath. He asserted that the COM
pany had raised prices from - to 90
per cent
J. J. Low of New York charged that
in the formation of the trust the
smaller manufacturers were frozen
out. The actual work of forming the
trust, he declared was directed by
]. Pierpont Morgan through George
w. Perkins. Charles r. Flint, he add
ed, was the original promoter, who
turned his affairs over to Morgan
& Co.
He also charged that the trust sold
Imperial Valley press., 1912-01-19

goods at home at a profit of 100 per
cent and abroad almost at cost, de-
manding cash from American farm
ers and giving long term contracts to
foreign trade.
Mr.. Low also declared that 81 per
cent of the stockholders in the steel,
sugar, beef and bankers trust also
controlled the International Harvester
Company"
He declared that the department of
justice had "chloroform every move
ment made to prosecute the harvester
trust, shown by the fact that the
Townsend report to the department
in 1906 has slumbered there ever
since"
Mr.. Low said that last autumn he
asked Col. Theodore Roosevelt's ad-
vice as to what he should do to urge
prosecution of the Harvester Com
pany, and Mr.. Roosevelt had said:
You had better come to see me
later about that"
Later" said Mr. Lowe, Il was as
founded to learn that Mr.. Roosevelt
had placed a clean bill of health on the
United States Steel Corporation.
also received a letter from Mr.. Roose-
welt stating that he could give me no
advice on the Harvester Company and

ATTY gen. WIcKERSHAM
SAYS HOOK IS ALL RIGHT

WASHINGTON. Jan. 19.-The pro-
tests against the appointment of
Judge William C. Hook of Kansas to
the supreme court of the United States
to succeed the late Justice Harlan
have been investigated by Attorney
General Wickersham and found
groundless The complaints were
based upon Judge Hooks decision in
the Oklahoma 2-cent railroad case,
which he held confiscatory.
Mr.. Wickersham concluded it was
extremely unwise to Judge the charac-
ter of jurist by one opinion simply
because it happened to be in favor of
the railroads. An examination of
Judge Hooks record in interpreting
the railroad and other laws of the
country refuted, in the judgment of
the attorney general, the charge that
Judge Hook was too conservative, His
conception of the man was based up
on a consideration of his whole ca
reer upon the bench.
The result of the investigation
means that Judge Hook still is among
the foremost candidates for the su-
preme court vacancy, but the presi-
dent, it is declared in authoritative
circles, has not yet made up his mind
as to the selection,

WISCONSIN BRYAN MEN
NOW OPPOSING WILSON

MILWAUKEE (Wis.) Jan. 19.-The
break between Governor Wilson and
Col. George B. Harvey has brought
out the leader of the old Bryan
strength in Wisconsin against the New
Jersey man. Matt ]. Regan, one of
the strongest of the old Democratic
leaders in the state, last night issued
q letter to John A. Aylward of Mad
ison, head of the Wilson campaign in
the state, declaring that under no cir
cumstances would he now aid in the
campaign of the New Jersey gov
ernOr.
Mr. Regan was at the outset a Will
son man. In his letter to Mr.. Ayl-
ward, however, he declares that he
can no longer aid in his campaign.
He says the Wilson movement at first
appeared to be promising but recent
events have demonstrated that his pol
icies are not those of the modern prog.
ressive Democratic party spirit.
OMAHA (Neb.) Jan. ia confer
ence of several leading Nebraska Dem.
ocrats yesterday considered the ac.
ton of the editor of Harper's Weekly
in taking from the head of its columns
the name of Governor Woodrow Will
son as a candidate for the Demo-
cratic nomination for president. The
meeting was held in the office of May
or Dahlman of this city, and was of
an executive nature.
Mayor Dahlman, after adjournment,
gave out statement in which he
admitted that the action of Editor
Harvey was the cause of todays meet
ing.
The action of Mr. Harvey is the
collapse of the Wilson boom,' declared
the mayor.
