ADVERTISE ARIZONA.

One Of the recommendations made by Governor Georse ". P. Hunt to the first session of the state legisIa- ture was that @ board of publicity be created for the purpose of gathering and publishing facts about the re sources and advantages of Arizona to the end that desirable immigration might be attracted here to make homes and investments. That recon me dat'on met with wide approval, but other more pressing business pre- vented any acton up to the present time.

EXTRA SESSION
 FOR TARIFF REVISION.

President-Elect Wilson. before leav- ing on his vacation. gave out a state
 ment setting at rest the question of
 special session of congress next year. He will call a special session te meet
 not later than April 15 for the purpose of revising the tariff and redeeming other promises contained in the Balti- more platform. The statement of the president-elect, of his intentions as to the tariff is characteristically sound and businesslike. He does not believe it is necessary to undertake tedious in- eestigstions. He observes. truly and dryly. that 'every congress has iEves- tigated." He might have added that investigation has been. under repub' Iican auspices, evasion. The tariff

BRA0NER REcoNslDERs.

Speaker sam B. Bradner, who las: week rendered his resignation as 6 member Of the legislature. thereby starting a vigorous campaign for the vacant speakership in the lower house, held by him, has reconsidered, the proposition and withdrew his resignation. The reason given for his resignation was that he could not give any of his time to the legislature because of his engagement as secre- tary of the state live stock commis sion. The reason given for withdraw. ing his resignation is the expense which Coch.se county would have to bear in holding a special election to choose his successor in the legisla ture. Mir. Bradner has now resigned as secretary of the sanitary board and ~ill continue to represent Co'chise county in the legislature. but t IS dol lars to doughnuts that after the spe- cial session of the legislature he will again he sheltered by the salary of the secretaryship or ,somd other lucra tive position in the state adminlstra tion
 Whether the decision of Bradnel to remain for the special iegisIativ, 1 session will end the campaign for th' i speakership is not known. but th' Review believes that it will. as in tn, l previous sessions MT. Bradner made good record for fairness and courtes! a. a .'residins officer

News from Fl Paso tells or the Mormon refugees, who came out of Mexico to avoid the danger threat cned by the rebels who were following Orozco, being now in search of lana for colonization in the United States. Lands for this purpose have been ex- amined in New Mexico. Arizona and idaho and a conference is now being held in Fl Paso to make choice Of a colony location. The Mcrmons have reclaimed much good agricultural land from a desert state and put 1t in sue cessful cultivation in the west during the last half century. They have pion- eered in every new country in the
 west during that time and wherever
 they have undertaken development they have mads good. Their settle ments in Mexico were evidences of their skill and energy in agricultural !, pursuits and when the troubles of the revolution came upon them they were 1 prosperous and content with good
 homes, churches and schools.

 state would be the gainer if other
 Mormon colonies were established
 within it's borders.

 BOND FOR GOOD ROADS
Graham Guardlan


 The proposition Of bonding the state for sI0.G00, 600 for good roads looks to most people as an enormous amount of money. and it is. But when we consider that the bonds are only to be sold as we need the money. and after the state roads are built every person living in Arizona VIII receive an immediate benefit from the construo ton and maintenance Of bet ter roads. 1t will not look SO bad

POWER OF ARiZoNA's CORPORATION COMMISSION.

CORPORATION COMMISSION.
 Word comes from Phoenix that the new city charter, adopted by a vote Of .ae peopie in that city. is liable to meet with rejection by the state of. roi4ls on the ground that several of it's provisions are not sabversive to 5he state constitution. but in viola -lon of it's provisions. For instance -ne Lew city charter which provides for a commission form of government gives to the city commission power to regulate and control all pHblic utili- ties within the limits of the city This is said to be in violation of the pro vision of the state constitution which puts into the hands Of the corporation commission the power of regulating all corporations. their rates and oD- eration. in the state. Attorney Gener- al Bullard has given a written opinion to Governor Hunt in which he points out ten separate and distinct provis. ions of the new city charter which he claims to be antagonistic to the con sUitution He does not advise the governor to withhold his approval from the city charter, but simply Joints out the sections whtch are not ia harmony with the states funds- mental law.
 In connection with his opinion re parding the city commissions right to regulate and control public utility companies Attorney General BullarI says the constitution gives this right under any provision Of the constitu uCn or law, but he claims at present there is no state law giving to mun5 cnpal governments this right, conse auently they have none.
 This question becomes the more in teresting just at this time becaUs, the railroad attorneys in attackin; the three-cent fare bill have raised the question that the state corpora ton commission is given full power t' regulate the rates and operation o railroads by the constitution and tha any law passed for the fixing Of rate or for regulating the operation o railroads would be void in the fac of the sole power to do such thing granted to the state commission b the constitution
 Here is the opinion of the attorne general relating to the power veste in the state corporation commissio to regulate rates and the operation ( all corporations:
 Eighth. Section 1 Of chapter i Iage 43, of the charter, reads as fo loSs:

table appears more attractive and lends
a charming setting to his hlghness,
the turkey, and its trimmings Wnen
the family or dinner party Is gathered
about the table.
The furniture men have something
nifty and nice in dining room tables
and chairs as we'll as other dining
room furniture that sets the stage for
the feast. Then, too, is seen the mod.
ern and department store type Of
kitchen cabinet for the preparation OF
the things that go to make us look
forward to the pumpkin and mlnce
pies, cranberry sauce and the GOD

The dry goods man has linens Of the

the beauty of pretty napery to the
board about which the diners gather
And while there is wealth Of fine
linen stocks In the Ottumwa stores
for the queen Of the household TO Sc
lact from, there are. too, some new
types In the Irish and Scotch linens
with prices ranging from that which
those of modest taste and income
might desire, to the class that the
NEST fastidious could wish for. IN
these newer styles of linens are seen
the square cloth with large round
figures that are becoming popular.
These are suited to the round or
SQUARE table alike and have the mar
row French hem. They are found IN
the set or by the yard and the napkins
to match are available. Another fea-
t,,re of these is that they are not so
wide as heretofore and more closely
fit the size of the table.
A visit to the jewelry stores reveal
ed the niftiest napkin bands and mar
kers, elaborate caseroles that are OF
a size that make them more useful
than the baking dish that preceded
them in use. Then, too, there are the
silver pie servers and the copper and
tile cake plates. Carving sets in sill
YER plate, pearl, ivory or stag handles
are there and in the hardware stores
as well, and so too are the other arti-
cles of table cutlery. The queens
ware stores have the dishes and glass
ware in abundance and nothing need
ed to give proper setting to Thanks

It is a triflle early to think OF turkey
and what will be used for the trim
mings for the great American bird the
last Thursday Of next month OUT tne
Ottumwa merchants are not unaware
that the time to tell ABOUT the SEQ
sons offerings is just before the sea-
son opens. Hence, while mliady Is
not worrying just now about Wnat
sized turkey she will have for the 1alI
holiday that is peculiarly an American
Observation-Disclosures day, she can
be interested in some of the Things
that aid In giving Thanksgiving am
ner it's proper setting. she Will not
at this stage of the season discuss the
day SO much looked forward to by the
football teams and begin to make her
plans for the dinner that is character
istic of the day, but if you should nap
pen to tell her that there are some
things new in the Ottumwa stores that
will fit nicely in making the Thanks
giving day dinner real pretty ana1r
from the standpoint of attractiveness
in table service, it is possible to get
her attention. Now this is just what
the merchants in different lines have
done.
Ottumwa merchants are awake to
the possibilities of modern merchan-
dising and the trade is not alone the
people of Ottumwa but those of all
of southern Iowa and northern Mis-
souri, as well. OF course there Is an
inducement for these people to come
to Ottumwa because the railroad fares
are paid for those who come from
abroad, but that is not all or the most
important attraction of the OttumWa
merchants in the various lines. They
offer all that the metropolitan mer-
chants have to offer and they strive to
please and do please. That this is so
can easily be attested if one were to
give attention to the crowds that daily
arrive from outside points and depart
later in the day laden with packages.
Each of the railroad stations affords
this panorama every day. The shop.
pers wear pleased faces and are the
best advertisements Of the OttumWa
merchants, for they prove that Of
tumwa stores not only strive to please
but do please and give satisfaction.
