the Limited and are endeavoring I'd
overtake the shipment before it is

explosion in the so-called cash deal
occurred when the bank on which

LEG BROKEN
State Engineer Jumps From Auto
When 1t Appears Collision Is In
evitabIe and Sustains Injuries
Which Send Him To Hos
pitaI.

PRESCOTT, Aug. Lamar Cobb
is in the Mercy Hospital with his
left leg broken below the knee as a
result of an accident in jumping out
of his auto one mile west of Cherry
Creek, at three o'clock. A Ford car
with Sam Easterling of Phoenix driv-
ing, came into view over the sharp
grade. Cobb's driver applied the
foot brake which failed to act and
the emergency brake would not hold
the car Cobb jumped across H. H.
Linney sitting in the back seat with
him and landed in a heap. Super
visor Stephens and Linney found him
sitting by the roadside his pipe in
his mouth. When they stood him
up they found his leg was broken.
His wife was summoned from Iron
Springs and is now at the hospital
with him. He is resting easy.
State Engineer Lamar Cobb and
assistant, w. F. Nichols, have been
north this time for something more
than a week, going primarily to con-
fer with the county supervisors OF
the northern counties relative to the
good road situation up there and
also to open the bids for the construc-
ton of the new bridge across the
Canyon Padre in Coconino county.
There is at present a great zeal Vi
road and bridge work going on In
the northern counties necessitating
the present of the state engineer
there to see after it.
Mr.. Cobb in addition is very en-
thusiastic motorist and travels in his
own car on these trips. He has
never before had an accident OF any
kind being himself a very careful
driver. This time, however, he was
not himself driving the car. The
party of which Mr.. Cobb was mem
Der were returning from a trip OF In
spection of the road between Pres
! colt and Flagstaff, that part OF II
which is in YaVapai county.
Sam Easterling was on the road to
the Grand Canyon in his Ford. Both
parties are we'll known here. MI

WILSON'S PHILIPPINE POLICY.

N NRESIDENT WILSON'S action in
 appointing a majority of the
 Philippine commission from na- tive Fiipinos. following closely upon the direct promise of his Governor GeenraI at Manila that it is the pur- pose of the United States to grant the island people their independence. is another token that the present admin istration has given us that it regards political promises seriously.
 The Philippine commission bears the same relation to the island government that the Senate bears to government in the United States. IL Is the upper house of the legislature. Heretofore, it has been composed of six Americans and three Fiupiuos all appointed by the President Hereafter. as stated. a majority ol the commissioners will be Fiiipiuos.
 No scuttle is involved in this policy and no commitments are made that cannot be cancelled. Until the Fili- pinos have shown themselves capable of self-goyernmeut there is to be un- rcmitting recognition of our severn eienlty.
 The main thing so far as we are concerned is that another party pledge has been shown to have vitality and sincerity. and so far as the Filipinos are concerned. that the means of their emancipation are already in their own hands. The triumph is as great for us as it is for them. Once more af- ter som, years of uncertainty. We pro claim freedom throughout the world.
