We have had an educational feast was the statement of the chairman at the conclusion of the night session of the institute at Mesa last Thursday night. Probably the most interested and enthusiastic crowd encountered by the demonstration cars was that of the Gem City. The daintily dressed high school girls added some new features to the days program when they served delicious sandwiches and coffee right at the cars. They also issued invita- tions early in forenoon for o'clock dinner at high school, which caused the entire demonstrating staff to wear a smile that stock the whole day. The smile became noisy as the sev-. enth course of the dinner was finished. Toasts to the farmer, the railroad, the University of Arizona, and to the Sunny City were responded to pleas antly by the visiting professors. The praises were loud and many for the domestic science department which the edibles and to the school board who made it possible.

NEW YORK ENGLISH

Those who have cherished the de fusion that the comic supplement language, as served to the public by the brilliant cartoonists of the New York newspapers, was an exaggera- ton as gross and distorted as their pictures may now De convinced Of their error. These artists" as ig- porant of line as of color, are, never theless, faithful reporters, if we may believe the board of superintendents of the New York public schools. They reproduce for us, in their mimi table way, English "as she is spoke" in the great metropolis. According to the board, high school pupils say 't'rov" for throw" "toin" for turn" and "goil" for girl" to mention only . few of the expressions quoted.
 Superintendent William H. Max we'll has issued a brochure in which the attention of teachers is directed to the deplorable manner in which the oral English of the pupils is de generating.
 According to Prof Maxwell, mis- pronunciation of ing" final or medial, is common. Lien tn" ana "stren'th" are used for length" and strength" while the most common mispronunciation of vowels is the confounding of the sounds "oi'' and "ef."
 New York has an enormous alien population. Each year thousands of foreign-born children, or children reared in homes in which an alien tongue or broken English is spoken, are thrown into the hopper Of the public school system. The task of their teachers in instructing them in the correct use of English must be tremendous one. Still, one would imagine that by the time

 In the evening, Professors Forbes, McOmie and Freeman held the plat form Their talks on Johnson Grass Control" "Water Requirements of Plants," and Alfalfa Seed Produc- tion," given in the order named, were interspersed with piano and vocal music. Each speaker did his best to make his discussion applicable to the needs of the community and in this they succeeded admirably, as the in- tense interest of the listeners in- dicateJ.
 The results already obtained with these cars is ample justification for the statement that this is by far the most effective means yet employed in Arizona of getting scientific facts be- fore the people. The cars contain lessons for school children, business man and farmers alike. One of the greatest movements for the education of the public, generally, is commenced by the University of Arizona with this initial run of the demonstration train.
 The next fortunate city to be wis ited is Yuma today. We are twice fortunate, however, since President A. H. Wilde, of the University of Arizona of Arizona, joined the train at Mari copa, and will appear on the evening program. His subject will be "The Type of Education for an Arizonan."

 FACE IDAHO COURT

CHICAGO, Dec. 10.-Idaho friends of Colonel Roosevelt would like to have the colonel come to that state to face charge of contempt in the supreme court there, should the Boise court care to fulfill a quoted declaration that if he came within the boundaries of the state he would be haled into court.
 J. M. Ingersoll, who is here to at tend the Progressive conference, car ried with him a letter addressed to the colonel from P Monroe Shock, Progressive national committeeman from Idaho. Shock and the editors of the Evening Capital News of Boise have been cited to appear in court for alleged contempt in printing and repeating remarks credited to the Progressive leader The latter's re- marks commented on a court decision preventing the names of the Progress sive electors from going on the ballot in Idaho.
 When Shock and the editors were cited for contempt the judge was quoted as saying that Roosevelt him. self would be brought to the bar if he came within the jurisdiction of the court Mr. Shocks letter suggests

Majority Favors Bill

It has been argued that the move ment will not be of immediate benefit to the valley because it's water ap- propriation is sufficiently large to in sure land owners here of a permanent and ample water right, because it's present levee system below the Mexi- can line is adequate to prevent any further danger from floods, and be- cause the silt problem is not serious, in the first place, and could scarcely be solved by storing water in the up- per reaches of the Colorado river in a second. The majority of the people here, as was expressed by speakers at the meeting last night, feel, how ever, that the Newlands bill, if it be- came a law, would be great and lasting benefit to all the Southwest. and therefore, that the people of the Imperial valley should interest them selves in it.
 The petition to the directors of the irrigation district will be presented at their next meeting, and some ac- tion will be taken immediately AS this matter relates solely to the water question and as on this question the directors of the district represent the people of the entire section it will be left in the hands of the directors for a decision.

 explained to the people of this section by George H.

 MT. Maxwell has been in the valley all this week and has awakened great interest in the movement he repre- sents. He asserts that three objects are to be attained by proper regulation of the Colorado river which will have a direct and immediate beneficial ef- feet in the valley, namely: Prevention Of floods on the lower Colorado, in- surance of perpetual and ample water supply, even after other irriga- ton projects have been started above the Imperial canal system, and a solu- ton of the present silt problem.

OUTLOOK FOR XMAS TRADE IS VERY
 GOOD
CHRISTMAS BUYING HAS BEGUN EARLY THIS YEAR-DIS-
 PLAYS ELABORATE

NEW YORK, Dec. 6.-Christmas buying has begun early in the metrop- oils this year and the merchants are looking forward to profitable ses- sion. Their optimism is strengthened by the announcement of many of the leading hotels that practically every accommodation has been reserved for the next two weeks by the out-of-town shoppers.
 The streets in the retail business district are already congested, the curbstone merchants have made their annual appearance and other outward indications are abundant that the holi- day season is at hand.
 The window displays are, If any thing, more elaborate than ever The toy wonderlands, especially, are mag nets for the crowds and apparently are as attractive to the grown-ups as to the youngsters. A glance at the win lows is convincing proof that the toy makers keep we'll abreast of the times.
 Mechanical toys, such as railroads, motor cars, aeroplanes and dirigible balloons, are displayed in profusion, but among the most striking novelties of the year are the miniature represen- tatiyes of the Turkish, Greek and Bull garian, and other soldiers in the Balk- an war. Even the Red Cross nurse and the aeroplane scout have not been neglected by the toymaker

TARIFF QUESTION WILL BE LEFT
 OVER FUR WILSON'S CONGRESS
PRESIDENT TAFT STATES HIS POSITION SINCE PRESENT SESSION CONVENED; COVERS MANY PHASES NATIONAL AFFAIRS STRONGLY INDEPENDENCE PiNEs-PANAMA IN A FEW WORDS

WASHINGTON, D. C., Dec. 6.-Pres tdent Taft will make no further effort to have congress reduce the tariff. IT . general message to congress, sub nftted today, the president clearly in dicated his intention of leaving fur ther tariff revision to MT. Wilson and ths congress just elected.
 "Nov that a new congress has been elected, on a platform for tariff for revenue only. rather than a protective tariff, and is to revise the tariff on that basis" said the president, it is needless for me to occupy the time of congress with arguments or recon msndadons in favor of a protective tariff
 This message, the second submit ted by the president since the present session began, will be his last of gen. eral character. It deals with every department of the government except the state department, recommends much of the legislation which MT Taft previously had urged upon the atten- tion of congress and took up and dis eussed at length several subjects com pRrstiyely new.
 Against Philippine Freedom
 Nr. Taft came out strongly against independence for the Philippines pro posed, he said, in a bill now before congress. He deprecated the new policy of one battleship year instead of two; and indorsed again the scheme of currency reform proposed by the National Monetary Commission.
 :. Conservation was lightly touched, Taft recommending the amend nent of bills now before congress so that water power companies, which dam navigable rivers, will contribute to the improvement of these streams.
 He declared that no radical change in the Sherman antitrust law was needed, and praised the supreme court for its recently announced changes in rules of equity procedure. In this con- nection the president asked congress to pass legislation which would allow the supreme court to formulate rules of procedure, under the common law, in federal courts and predicted that such action would facilitate justice in those courts and reduce the cost litigation to the public, e,, The Panama Canal
 The Panama Canal was dismissed in few words, the president prophecy ing its opening in the latter half of 1913. He took occasion, however, to declare that congress should reward the work of Colonel Goethals by an | appointment as major general with the provision that he become chief of en- xineers when the term of the present | incumbent expires. He made only brief reference to the dispute with Great Britain over the Panama Canal act and said that when a formal pro- tsst was lodged against that act it would be taken up by the United etateaL

Urges Militia Pay-BiIl

The army the president discussed at some length. He praised the army legislation of the last congress but said that provision should be made by law so that the nations foreign regiments may be always maintained upon a war footing; he urged the pas sage of the pending militia-pay bill, designed to make the service in the militia more enticing, and showed that the home army will be nothing more than a skeleton" until congress pro vides that it be concentrated in fewer posts than are now maintained. He urged also the passage of another bill now before congress designed to raise, quickly, a volunteer army in case of war.
 One of the striking arguments of the message was one not approving of i'm mediate autonomy for the Philippines, at once, and independence in eight years, as proposed in a bill pending in congress.
 Philippine Autonomy
 "In the Philippine islands we have embarked upon an experiment un- precedented in dealing with depend ent peoples, said President Taft. "We are developing these conditions ex- clusively for their own welfare.
 Through the unifying forces of a common education, of commercial and economic development, and of gradual participation in local self-government, we are endeavoring to evolve homo geneous people fit to determine, when the time arrives, their own destiny We are seeking to arouse national spirit and not, as under the older colonial theory, to suppress such a spirit. But our work is far from done Our duty to the Philippines is far from 
 For educational, sanitary and polit- ical reasons, the president said, this should not consent to grant at this time.
 "If the task we have undertaken is higher than that assumed by other na- tions,' continued the president, tits must demand even moro patience To confer inde- Dendence upon the Filipinos now is, therefore, to subject the great mass of their people to the dominance of an and, probably exploiting | minority.
 Such a course will be cruel to those | people as it would be shameful to us.
 In addition to this, his advice in re gard to legislation and his supposition o pending measures, the president discussed the prosperity of the nation, ts financial condition and the propos- d system of a national budget show ng proposed expenditures and rev ,nues; and called attention to the bal Lnce in the general fund in the na- ional treasury, of almost $170,000, 0,00O. lis remarks on the budget system, le said, would be submitted to congress ater, accompanied by a model budget
