A TIMELY WARNING,

In another column The Tribune this
morning presents to its readers an in
terview with Mr.. J. E. Cosgriff, which
we commend for careful consideration.
Mr.. Cosgrif assails vigorously the uni
versal extravaganza of the American
people. He expresses himself strongly
because he feels deeply on the subject
and, IN support of his contention, he
brings forward an array Of facts which
are confounding In their strength.
Mr.. CosgrifR for two months past has
been studying financial and business
conditions throughout the East and
middle West, and the message of warn
ing which he brings is the result of the
investigation he has been making. He
believes that a period Of readjustment
all along the line, from the poorest to
the richest, is inevitable If we are not
to meet with disaster as a nation. Mr..
Cosgriff believes that this readjustment
has already begun so far as the rich
are concerned; that they are proceeding
more carefully than in the past few
years, and he insists that this course
must be followed in turn by those who
are without rating in Dun or Brad
streets.
Whether OF not Mr. Cosgriff's con-
clusions are correct, certainly some Of
his premises arc susceptible Of demon
stration, for, as he says, "We are
spending money faster and faster,
Economy has receded further and
further into the background. Even
the little children have learned the new
order, and they no longer think in
pennies, as Of old, but in nickels. James
j. Hill, the famous railroad president,
some years ago sounded a similar note
of warning. AT that time he said the
trouble with the United States was not
the high cost of living so much as the
cost Of high living. This condition noted
then by Mr.. Hill has since become more
accentuated, with the result that today
the American people are tending in the
direction which will make us race of
spendthrifts if reform is not effected.
OF course, this needed reform will be
effected, for the American people,
though at times doing foolish things,
always regain their sense and their
poise in time to avert disaster.
We believe that Mr.. Cosgriff Is words
are worthy Of the most sincere consid-
Grafton, and we hope they will receive
it, for they cannot but produce a bene-
fetal effect.

cease to be active in Asiatic affairs or
get out of Asia altogether.
Without doubt thero are many ele-
ments of conflict between the Monroe
doctrine and the interests of other ma
tions that will develop as the years pass,
Ii would require the intelligence of tho
superman to pronounce in advance that
these elements should be sufficient to
demonstrate the advisability Of aban-
doning the Monroe doctrine Immediate
ly While it may be wise to change or
obliterate the Monroe doctrine in gen
Grafton or half century from now, IL
seems clear that at the present time 1t
would be the height Of folly for Presi-
dent Wilson to modify the doctrine In
the midst of his negotiations with Mex
ico, or even to make any substantial
changes in the near future.

SOME PERKINS PERSIFLAGE.

George W. Perkins Of New York,
who retired from partnership in the
Morgan firm several years ago with a
few million dollars, in order, as he e1-
pressed it at the time, to help make
the United States filter place for his
children to live in, is now advocating
q pension system for the civil service
in the United States. Mr.. Perkins ac-
quired much fame during the last presi-
Dental campaign as one of the chief
financial hackers of Colonel Roosevelt,
Mr.. Perkins. made a speech in New
York City last Sunday night, in which
he delivered a number OF broadsides at
the expense of politicians and members
of congress, In Mr.. Perkins's view,
"there is more personal glory, more
headlines in q public building in Po-
dunk than in proper pension plan for
postmen," criticism that may be fair
but is just as likely to be unfair, for,
while public buildings are sometimes
located where they are unnecessary,
more frequently public buildings are
long needed before being supplied by
the federal government and, even when
built, are often inadequate to supply
the needs Of the community they are
supposed to serve.
Mr.. Perkins's language, however, is
alliterative and likely to tickle the ears
of his hearers, although not so likely
to commend itself to their sober
thought.
In another connection he said, "Men
have sought office for their own pecu.
mary reward and their own glorifica.
ton, with mighty little, if any, honest,
patriotic purpose behind their ambi-
tions. They have gone into office and
sought the position, as man should go
into business and seek gain, caring
nothing whatever for tho kind of pub
lie service rendered, caring everything
for what they individually could make
out Of 1t. The result is that the old.fash-
ioned idea of studying slatesmanlike
questions and economic problems has
gone almost entirely out Of fashion, and
the average legislator of today is made
up of about one part patriotism and
nine parts personal AMBITION
One might well hold gloomy view
as to the outlook for tho republic If he
accepted the conclusions Of this eminent
Progressive. The truth is. that few
statesmen at any time in the country's
history have been moved by the sort of
patriotism which Mr.. Perkins seems TO
have in mind. Nearly all of our great
men have been moved b. honest ambi-
tion; they desired TO advance them
selves and, while sincere lovers OF their
country and animated by the highest
patriotism. they nevertheless had their
own future ever in mind. The politi-

and criminal law for the protection Of
life and property.
These reforms are coming slowly,
Never in the history of the English law
has so much money been available for
the defense OF criminals as at the pres
ent time, and lawyers of great acuteness
have devoted their lives to criminal
practice and have made vo-
cation Of finding flaws in the
machinery of justice. 1t takes time and
equal acutencss on the part Of lcgisla-
tors to repair these flaws. In our opin-
lon the defects must be remcdied and
new legal safeguards provided for the
protection OF life before the homicide
rate can be notably decreased.

clan OF today is much the sume as he
has been in the past and will be in the
future. He realizes that the best serv-
ice to his country is the most certain
means OF his own advancement. He
must serve well if he would prosper,
for, as Lincoln put 1t, "You can fool
all OF the people part of the time, some
OF the people all of the time, but you
can't fool all OF the people all Of the
time Mr.. Perkins should set his mind
at rest, the country ism It going to the

PROTEST FROM MAYER.
| The Arizona Republican:

Ia The Arizona Republican,:
 We the tax payers of Mayer, Hum- boldt Dewey, Cordes and Turkey, ap- peared before the chamber of commerce of Prescott and protested against any further money being expended Cat the present time) upon the uncompleted scenic highway running south from Prescott to Phoenix. Our reason was that over one hundred and twenty six thousand dollars( had already been ex- pended upon that sky line road and but nineteen and a fraction miles of road completed, and the part completed is
 not connected. The estimated length
 of the road between Phoenix and Pres
 colt is 131 miles. What the estimated
 cost of the balance of 112 miles is, we
 ability of the tax payers to stand at
 the present time; in fact it is not pos
 sible to travel the road in the winter
 months, as this winter the completed
 road had as high as seven feet of snow
 upon it, and was out of commission
 for several months. If the money all
 ready expended upon the (sink hole)
 or sky line road, $126, 900 had been ex-
 pended equally on the Skull Valley road and the Black Canon road we would have two splendid roads at the present time and complete loop, also two roads open all the year. If the good roads association expects to have the tax payers of this state vote road bonds they certainly must expend it in a more reasonable and conservative man. ner than they have displayed in the construction of the short piece of road south from Prescott.
 The people of this community are very favorable toward good roads and are willing to be taxed for the same but if further funds are expended on propositions like the above mentioned | it will be many years before the peo- pie of Arizona will vote in favor of any 1 state road bonds, whatever
 | The reason for this letter is a reso- lution passed by the Arizona Automo- 1 bile association requesting the com pletion of the above mentioned road. Respectfully Yours, l TAXPAYERS. Mayer Arizona April 12

GLENDALE Is HAVING SPLENDID STEADY GROWTH

The new building erected by J. M. Hotchkiss for Messrs. Cartmel and Mc- Millin's new garage has been complet ed. The new lessees will be in their building on Monday the 21st, and ready for business. They say that business is starting up in fine shape, as they have three automobiles to start in on as soon as they are ready to handle them.
 The new garage is housed in a fine
 brick building, with concrete pebble dash trimmings and face. The ma chinery will be installed as soon as it is
 received and will go to make up one of
 the finest garages in Arizona. Their gasoline tank is already installed, and
 regular Bowser Auto Filling Sta tion has bee nplaced just at the edge of the street
 Messrs. Cartmel and McMillin are both experienced machinists and auto mobile men and will no doubt enjoy a good patronage.
 The new Glendale State Bank build ing is now under way. The foundation has been finished for some time, is now dry and the walls of the building are going up rapidly. The fixtures are all ordered, and are expected here on the ground just as soon as the building is ready to receive them.

We employ a method of concrete construction which does away with forms, and the labor of preparing them, by using tilting table or platform upon which the exterior wall of the building is constructed, with window frames in place; and the finish, or ornamentation all done without the use of staging, etc. When the concrete is set, the wall lying nearly flat is elevated to the vertical at a nominal expense.
 This method is new, only in the sense that it has not been employed in Phoenix; however, the United States government has built mil lions of dollars worth of buildings; and, in many eastern states vast sums have been saved by it's use. This system lend itself to the most

WOULD BUY KAWS
Jimmy Manning Negotiating
for Purchase of Team.
Deal Would Not Result i'm Re.
mOval, However.

Jimmy Manning is trying to buy the
o. Topeka baseball team, franchise and
all it's holdings for wealthy real es-
tate man. He has been correspond
ing with the local management for a
month or more and a deal may be
closed in the near future. Manning is
a former major Lacquer and is best
known here as manager of the Kansas
City Blues for number of years.
Manning is engaged in selling Texas
land at present and is associated with
q Chicegoan who wants to put some
money in a baseball team. The local
management has made them a propo-
sition and a decision is expected in a
short time. However. they expect to
keep the team in Topeka and build
up a strong aggregation. The local
management places a value on its
holdings which range from $4,000 to
SIS, coo.
Manning was once a part owner of
the Washington team before the Amer
lean League was organized. He is a
hustler. Gear was pitcher for the
Kansas City team while the former
was employed as the manager. 1t is
probable that Gear would be retained
as active manager, although Manning
would dictate affairs.
Players Look Good.
All of the players but Lee have re-
ported to Gear at Denison. Lee cannot
get away from his present position I'M
til April 1. He will come direct to To-
peka at that time.
Gear is well pleased with his crowd,
but has not had enough time to get
definite line on them. He is working
DuIin at third and believes he will
make good. Dulin is down to weight
and tips the beam at $50 pounds. He
weighed 205 last summer. Forsythe,
McLarry. Rapps, Snapp and Ollom
look mighty good to Gear. All are big
fellows and have shown up mighty
well in the short practice they have
had.
Gallager, Fullerton and Adams have
shown excellent work as pitchers. The
old men who were with the team last
year are showing up better than be-
fore, and Gear acknowledges that he
will have trouble in picking the regu-
lar men.
Gear has arranged some more games
and the team will play every day ex-
cepting March 81, while in the Texas
camp. The regulars will play the Deni-
son team today.
