 Upon receipt of that inform ation the legislature proceeded to pass the bill, the senate talk ing the initiative. There was some interest also in the com mittee of the whole in the sen ate, over consideration of the Breen recall measure but it came to naught, being a repetition of the arguments set forth in be- half of the Kirke Moore bill in the house a few days ago.

Joe Isabelle of Flagstaff
 Champion Bronco Buster

Joe Isabelle a plucky little cowboy from Arizona, is cham pion bronco rider of the south west. That title was conferred upon him at Santa Anita, Calif- ornia. by the Rodeo judges after he had ridden "C cfone," the famous outlaw. to a standstill. He was presented with the $20O prize money and S2OO prize saddle offered the winner of the championship.
 Ten thousand persons went to Santa Anita to witness the finals of the cowboy contests and the big audience was kept breathless watching the effects of the different contestants.
 The most hair-raising event of the day was undoubtedly Art Acord's steer wrestling. Instead of using his COW pony. Acord pressed an automobile into ser vice and demonstrated the use fulness of a machine in handling cattle. He succeededin throwing the steer in 45 seconds.
 A. J. Stanley was presented with a gold and silver mounted belt, offered by Richard K. Fox of New York to the best all round cowboy.
 The Rodeo will be presented in Los Angeles agarn next year, ii, being the desire of the man agement of the big contest to establish it permanently there.

Bill Passed Over Hunts Veto

Interest in Tuesdays legisla- tive proceedings was almost wholly confined to the passage of Senate Bill 39, respecting saloon licenses, over the veto of the governor. There were two votes in the senate and seven in the house sustaining the views of the executive. The action was delayed until the day was far spent and the lawmakers de- sired an opinion from the attor- ney general on the constitutional point raised by the governor. The essence of the attorneys gene ral's opinion is that the legis- lature and the executive are the two authorities of last resort as to what is emergency legislation and that when the executive is overridded by a three-fourths majority in the two houses the legislature becomes the supreme

GOV. HUNT VETOES
 WORSLEY SALOON BILL


 day to the legislature the Wor- sley bill without his approval. The bill proposed to grant relief to certain saloonkeepers in Pima county, who found their places closed automatically at midnight Sunday by the so-calIed six-mile limit law, which forbids the operation of saloon within that distance of any construction camp. The construction work on the Fl Paso 6 Southwestern R. R. having reached the six-mile zone embracing the location of many saloons whose license expired yesterday, it was sought to ex- cept them from the operation of the old law by the passage of an emergency measure, to go iuto effect immediately. and which provided for the suspension of the referendum clause of the Arizona constitution.
 In his message Governor Hunt makes it clear that the veto is not issued uoon any desire to work hardship on those whose business must by the sudden and arbitrary closing. and expresses the hope that some other means can be found to afford the desired relief. The Governor calls attention to the plain lan- guage Of the section of the con- stitution which deals with the referendum and describes the measures which may properly be excepted from it's operation. According to the language, the referendum can legally be sus- pended only for certain specific purposes and the governor is un- able to reconcile the purpose of the Worsley bill with the plain mandates of the organic law. From the wording of the veto message. it is plain that the principal involved would apply with equal force to the dry goods business or any other line of p.i- vate industry which might find itself temporarily embarrassed in the same way. It is not evident that the governor does not think that the tenn porary closing of a few saloons. or a few dry goods stores for that matter, could be said to menace the public health or safety, or endanger the support of state institutions. The constitution de fines nothing else as justifying the use of the emergency clause, and in order to be constitunal, as well as to observe the spirit and purpose of the referendum. the language must be strittly inter preted. - Arizona Gazette.

When rural communities become
interested in the good roads question
to such degree that they make it the
subject of earnest and spirited debate.
it is a splendid augury for the future
of the movement, says the Evening
Journal. 1t is a pity that such de-
bates, conducted with proper spirit
by we'll informed persons, are not
being held in all the towns, villages
and hamlets and school districts in our
State. There is nothing that would
do more to arouse public interest and
produce practical results. 1t is of
prime Importance, however, that those
who participate formally in SUCH de-
bates shall acquaint themselves thor
oughly with the facts, pro and con,
bearing upon the subject. Little good
can result from debates based upon
unreasoning prejudice, misinforma-
tion or lack of information. The
subject should be approached intel
ligently and fairly from both sides.
Under such conditions no speaker who
advocates the building of good roads
upon sound business principles need
fear to meet any opponent in debate.
The weight of argument, if properly
presented, alway is on the side of
good roads. Why wouldn't it be
we'll to organize good roads debating
clubs in all the school districts in our
State this winter? Such step would
be highly educational and entertain
ing and serve to make Delawareans
realize what they are losing in plea
sure and profit by acquiescing in
continuance of the present slipshod and
make-shift method of constructing
and maintaining public roads in most
of the rural districts in the State.

will give all of his time to patrolling
the streets and several years ago they
combined the offices of Chief of Police
and Street Supervisor so as to make
the salary worth while for one good
man to take both jobs. but in this
case a man cannot be on "his beat"
and haul coal, etc, at the same time
and one or the other must necessarily
be neglected. On Saturday nights
and extra occasions Especial police"
are put on. The public movement
being agitated is to look into this mat
ter more closely and to consult with
Town Council for a better means to
an end desired. With the drunken
ness and disorder manifest upon our
streets and the apparent presence of
speakeasies in our midst, many good
citizens feel the time has come for
concerted action looking into the
better enforcement of our town laws.

A movement is being agitated for
the holding of a public meeting look
ing into the matter of more strin-
gent ordinance for drunkenness and
disorder on the streets and for better
police protection. This is a good
movement so far as it goes, but what
does it avail if not enforced? There
is plenty of law on our town ordin-
ance book which if properly enforced
would make conditions eminently bet
ter in Smyrna. The thing is to get
officers fearless in the discharge of
their duties who will enforce the laws
without fear or favor. But here

The rector and members of St.
Peters Church of this town have rea-
son to be proud of the handsome new
pipe organ which has been installed
in their pretty church edifice. 1t is
beautiful, sweet toned instrument and
will add in no small degree to future
worship in the church. For years it
has been the one hope of the choir and
workers of the church to replace their
old organ with a new and up-to-date
instrument, and now that Felgemaker
& Co. have made such a good job of
it, there is rejoicing throughout the
parish. With the assistance of An
drew Carnegie, to whom debt of graf
itude is due, the vestry has secured
through subscription and otherwise all
but about $100 to liquidate the debt.
Everything considered, this is a re-
markable showing and displays the
energy and enthusiasm that has been
at work ever since the movement was
inaugurated. Our congratulations
and best wishes are with the rector
and communicants of st. Peter s
Church and may the organ, so long
needed, be a great blessing to the
church as we'll as the community.

Or took on a dull, faded or streaked
appearance, they made a brewof Sage
leaves, and applied it to their hair
with wonderfully beneficial effect.

to the old-time tiresome method Of

tea. This is done by skillful chemists

BELIEVES OLD SYSTEM BEST
Writer Deplores the Modern Method Of
Teaching Children Science Of
~. Spelling.

In the memory of some Of us who
are not grandmothers, spelling was
taught by graduated system begin
ming with the phonetic value of the
letters. The spelling books-we rec
Ognlze it nowhere designed to make
learning easy. Long lists of words Of
similar sound but with different initial
letters were given, and possibly with
one or two exceptions or variations
sandwiched in. The ear and the mind.
from frequent repetition, grew accus-
toned to a certain combination. and,
once learned, it was never forgotten
Today take up the spelling book
of child just out of the Kindergarten
and attempt to hear him his lesson.
What do see? A list of Things to
Use on the Table" He spells bread"
"salt" and "plates" correctly, and
sticks at KNIVES" He goes back,
studies it again and again sticks to
KNIVES" Why should knives be
spelled as it is? He cannot understand
The fact that it is something to use
on the table does not help him. I turn
to the preface Of the book to see if I
can find what Rossetti would call "the
fundamental brain work" underlying
the system, and learn that spelling,
forsooth should be taught "by an as
ISOLATION of ideas!" Now, spelling is
not an association of ideas. It is an
association of sounds If you teach it
by association of the idea of sound,
we'll and good. Why should the child
be robbed of the help which associa.
ton of sounds would give him? Why
should each work be made an excep-
ton and have to be learned by dis
tinct mental process? Why are the
theories of Pestolozzi and Froebel thus
clumsily misapplied?
The trainers of the old-fashioned
memory systems depended on the as
ISOLATION Of ideas, and justly so. for
they taught lists of unrelated words.
They would have been the last to de.
pend on it for the teaching of Eng
lish spelling. They would have been
the first to claim the help of the linked
chain Of similar sounds
Let us thank our lucky stars that we
were educated before there was an
effort to make learning picturesque.
Those of us who wept over Reading
without Tears" have reaped one ad-
vantage; We can at least write let
ter without looking in the dictionary.
