Justices of the Peace.

Just now the charter commission is wrestling with the justice of the peace question. Both the number of justices and the question of juris- diction are involved
 IL seems to The Republican that right here is a good chance for Phoenix and the whole state of Ari- zona to profit by the mistakes of many of the older states in this matter It is well known fact that in many sections the office of jus tice of the peace is merely d sort of collection agency and that the magiSterial power Of the incumbent is very often prostituted to the same purpose. IL is also known that in most jurisdictions the justices are remarkable for nothing so much as their ignorance of the law and that their mistakes are a constant source of annoyance. trouble. and irritation to courts of record. There ought be no great difficulty in keeping Ari- zona out of this juridicaI rut.
 The office of justice of the peace is an important one, and it should be more important even than it is now. Magistrates should have final juris diction in all civil cases where th4 amount involved is small and where no disputed questions other than the payment of money enters into the case. Also, they should have final Jurisdiction in many misdemeanor cases. The effect of provisions of this character would be to keep vast number of petty cases out of the courts of record.
 With these provisions in effect the number of justices should be kept down to the minimum. Also, none but properly qualified members of the bar should be eligible to appoint ment or election.
 It is believed the adoption of these measures would go a long way in solving this problem. An enlarged jurisdiction. higher standard of qualification than generally obtains, and reduction in the number of justices are the three things that should make of the office real tribunal instead of the joke it is too frequently known to be.

SC|ssORED WIT
THE KISS AT THE GATE.


 South Brechin Place. South Ken sington. must be very tony" sort of thorOughfare. A cook who had been employed by doctor there sued her employer in the county court for q months wages in lieu of notice. She had broken a rule of the house by going to the gate after 10 o'clock to speak to her young man." and her mistress saw from the window the pair kiss at parting. The girl was accordingly turned out of the house the same night
 Counsel-Was there anything wrong in kissing?
 Mrs. Orr--I consider it to be in ours.
 Counsel-Indecent?
 Mrs. Orr-WeIl, quite improper in the street.
 Doctor Orr also stated in evidence that he considered it to be very unpleasant in respectabl street to have such things going on" The girl lost her case, although we note that his honor said he would let Doctor Orr's conscience appraise his conduct in turning her out of the house at II o'clock at night. But it will probably strike most people that if nothing worse ever happens in South Brechin Place than the in cident which was the cause of this action the residents will have very little to complain about.-West- minister Gazette, London.

 Steady Work Counts.
 Athletes who are entering a race over an extended course frequently run the first part of the course at top speed in order to take the heart out of their opponents" Later. If they can hold the speed. all well and good: if not, they have a safe lead in which to loaf d little and catch their breath before the other runner comes up. This is the system some of the contestants for the Mitchell Touring Car, cash prizes and trips in The Republican Voting Contest have
 he; iG Take the heart out of the other fel- lows if you possibly can, otherwise the chances are they will try to take the heart out of you. Votes are going to come in in bushels during the next seventeen days. The far ther you get ahead of the rush the easier sailing you will have.
 But DON'T GET DISCOURAGED just because somebody hops ahead of YOU. Most of the big contests are won by the steady workers. who are outdistanced by others at times dur ing the contest, but who come in at the finish in the lead. If you HAVE to start late. you can still go up to the lead if you work hard BETTER START LATE THAN NOT START AT ALL.
 Get Extensions.
 Contestants will find that in many cases where they have received sub scriptions for three or six months that the subscribers will extend theIr subscriptions for three or six months or a year more The new readers of The Republican will continue to read it and will extend their subscriptions. now that they can help contestant with their votes to be q winner.

The Los Angeles Tribune has sug- gested the name of Hiram Johnson. governor of California. as the re- publican candidate for the Nlce- presidency. It is believed that Mir Johnson is very estimable man but the painful truth is he has about as much chance to pull down that nomination as has the publish CT of the Tribune himself. Much as We may dislike the thought out here. the truth remains that neither of the great parties is going to the far west for it's candidates yet and the indications are that the rule will not be broken for some little tune to come.

Col W. $ Hopewell. of Abu- querque. who has just returned from a trip to New York. says Mir. Taft is certain to be renominated. The Republican, is inclined to the same opinion. but il is not wise to make predictions on what one may see and hear in d single city. If MT. Hopeweu had made his observations exclusively in Arizona he would probably have come to the conclu- sion that the colonel would win in d walk. and so it goes. This Is a pretty big country and the man who tries to forecast this nomina- ton by personal observation in any one section is likely to find there were a number of points he over looked. Everybody remembers SaXe's of the Blind Men and the Elephant. and that is an illustra- tion that many applied with pecu- liar aptness in the present instance.

TO Secretary Wilson in juno. 1910.
Why did YOU oppose the publication
of this rcrort?" asked Chairman Moss.
Because of the obvious irrccon-

and prudence. I recommended there

member of the committee.
Absolutely no one. no SIR" replied
Mr.. Arnold.
The witness described an interview
he had with Representative Frank
Clark of Florida. whose charges as
to the departments conduct in the
everglades survey brought on the pres
ent investigation.
He said Mr.. Clark called with a cou.
pie of friends. He detailed the con-
Versation and said MIR. Clark had de.
clared that if the everglades report
was very favorable 1T would hurt
some Of his constituents who owned
Florida land outside of the everglades
That was just as good as the ever
glades."
Mr.. Arnold said the publication of
the circular letter on the everglade
which was said to have hurt the sale
of the lands was very irregular and
unusual"
This letter was mailed out to In
autrers from the department until
Senator Fletcher of Florida induced
Secretary Wilson to suppress 1t.
Mr.. Arnold was the only witness
during the afternoon and will resume
the stand tomorrow morning.
