A QUIET TRICK OF

Des Moines Tribune: A quiet

were in conference with State Game
Warden E. C. Hinshaw at Dows sew
eral days ago, when the news of the
leasing OF the lake leaked out.
Sportsmen who have heard Of the
trick are wrought up over the possi-
bility that the resort may have to
go.
The little measure that did the
trick is an amendment to the section
of the code relating to the power of
the executive council in the selling
or leasing of state lands. It pro-
vides that any land owned by the
state within the highwater lines of
any nonnavigable stream or lake.
and also any lands within the bed
of any lake bed, authorized to be
drained under the provisions of the
chapter amended, may be leased by
the executive council, in its discre-
tion until otherwise disposed of, the

funds OF the state.
The matter Of the drainage OF
Wall lake has been agitated widely
for several years. and the battle be-
tween the sportsmen and those who
desired draining has been at times
SO bitter that the question really has
become of statewide Importance. AS
a hunting and pleasure resort. the
lake shore now contains improve
ments estimated to be worth $780,
600. The bed Of the lake Is charac-
terized as being about 1,100 acres
OF gravel and peat.
Under the terms of the little law,
the executive council was empower
ed to lease the land to Mr.. Austin,
and Mr.. Austin may do as he pleases
with the lake bed, so long as he
pays rent to the state. 1t Is beliey-
ed that moneyed men in Wright
county are behind the move.

GOVERNOR HUNT A FAILURE
tGiobe Record.)

The summary removal of A. L. liar. per from the position of superintend- ent of the criminal pest house at Pen. soE was not unexpected. It has be. come apparent that our bumptious gov ernor and his factotum, Secretary Os- burn, had predetermined to make Harper the goat-to cast upon him the odium of the deplorable conditions in the Benson school. which had existed before he was appointed superintend- ent, and which he was powerless to remedy because of the governors per. Eicious interference. The alleged hear ing at Phoenix was a travesty, a rank inquisition in which Hunt and Osburn were accusers as well as arbiters.
 Auditor CaliaghaD. also a member of the board of control, valuing his self-respect, declined to participate in SO reprehensible a proceeding, know ing full well that his voice and vote would count for naught, but be ayailed himself of the privilege to fle a state ment accusatory of the governor and expressing his view of conditions at the Benson house of detention, result ing" as he says. from palpable in- capacity. utter incompetency, fragrant immortality. and absence of discipline which characterized the preceding ad.

 When this country was young, bri- dal couples used to start out from Connecticut for the far west and stop in Ohio to put their children in school.
 Scientists put cowcatchers on the early trains but even this didn't help Jhe COWS kept ahead of the trains with ridiculous ease.
 When Fulton ran the first steam beat up the Hudson and speeded it up to seven miles an hour, people grew pale and whispered, What if the friction should ignite the hulI?'
 In those happy days people didn't worry about velocity. But later on when man began to burn incandes- cent holes through the atmosphere and to criticise the earth because its running schedule around the sun hasn't been shortened in ten billion years. the speed limit was hailed as a great boon.
 Man is still allowed to travel sixty miles and half way up the golden stair in an hour by railroad train f he wishes and to do a mile a minute in, or partially in, a motor boat.

 While a great injustice has been done Mir. Harper by the arbitrary ac. ton of the governor and his satellite on the board of control. nevertheless the incident is not without it's value in further exposing Governor Hunts fatuous policy, his reprehensfble mthods, and his persistent violation of the laws.
 MT. Hunt has been extremely fort. unate in his political career, and his election to the high office of governor of Arizona was pregnant with a great opportunity to establish an enyiabIe name for himself ard promote the welfare of the state through a wise administration of it's affairs: but he has plainly shown his inaputude for the office. His administration has Seen marred by many serious bund. CTS and the fads whicl, he has intro duced by gratifying an O'erweening love for notoriety He lost the support of the better element of his party, and forfeite the confidence and respect of- respect of intelligent and responsible citizens generally of the state.
 Governor Hunt is a failure.
