since to the fact that there seems to be growing a disposition among the younger set of boys to race their horses through the city streets. Sev- eral arrests have been made recently in an attmpt to break up this prac-
 tiCe. Some of the boys, however. in sist on indulging in this form of sport
 and in order to avoid arrest have be- gun racing on the roads outside the city limits beyond the power and authority of the city officials The boys are meeting with a difficulty more serious and far-reaching than the danger of arrest. Friday night Jesus MOsesti and Marcus Smythi, two Mexican youths, were racing their horses on the road which runs north and south from the old mill For some reason MOsestiS horse shied to the right as he raced with his companion toward the Aurora Bore alis. A short distance from the road the horse became wedged between two immense sunflOWers, from which it was later extricated The boy has not been found though searching par ties have been looking for the boy since his disappearance. It is evil dent that the boy was thrown from the horse and rendered unconscious. and in a dazed condition attempted to find his way to the road, but hay irg lost his bearings wandered farther into the sun-flower forest The fact that a number of domestic animals recently have lost their way in these thickets has excited little comment but the MeXicans are considerably wrought up over the loss of this young member of their society and the danger of suffering similar loss from the same cause.

The fact that the wri- ter has located the Roosevelt dam eighty miles north of Phoenix is somewhat misleading, but a consulta- tion of the maps will put the readers on the right track.

TAX THE LUXURIES

Washington, Jan. 22.-"We want
to Get a large amount of revenue on
lMGries, so that we can put a less
tax oil the necessities of life"
This is to be the basis of the tar
if revision in the Sixty-third Con-
igresS. according to Chairman Under
wood of the Democratic Ways and
Means Committee. The above expires
sion is Mr.. Underwood's. He made
it directly to one OF the big silk man.
ufacturers who was testifying before
his committee.
The indications are that a feature
Of the Democratic policy is likely to
be free dressed and rough lumber,
shingles, lath and fence posts. The
members Of the Ways and Means
Committee, while asking questions Of
witnesses, appeared to be in favor Of
that policy.
Free meats. 1t is rumored, may ais
be part Of the tentative tariff plan
the committee will frame to submit
to the extra session.
The very air in the corridors out
side Of the committee room seems to
breathe feeling that the Democratic
leaders intend to Sc to it that the
promises made to the people before
election are to be religiously carried
out after election.

One Of the things that the con
ference q governors hoped to accom-
plish, but which never even reaches
the point Of general discussion, wal
the framing and recommending Of |
uniform marriage and divorce law 70
the various states. This, along Will
child labor, public health regulations
etc., might have been thrashed on
to good advantage by the governor:
had it not been for the fact that the
governors we're too busy talking poll
tics.
Recent developments indicate thai
something may be accomplished
however, in the way Of uniform legis
lation regulating marriage. In Kan.
sas and Nebraska bills Of like charac
ter have been introduced, requiring
the publication Of banns before a II,
cense can be secured for a wedding
ceremony. The Kansas bill provides
that notice Of intended marriage mus
be published once week for three
consecutive weeks in a newspaper In
the county in which the intended
bridegroom lives. Proof Of such pub
LEGATION must be submitted to the
probate Judge issuing the license. The
Nebraska bill differs somewhat from
the Kansas measure. being in some
respects better and in others not so
good. In Nebraska 1t is proposed to
publish historical and personal infor-
nation about the prospective bride
and groom five days before the date
of the wedding. AS regards the his
torical and personal information, it
Is better than the Kansas bill, but
the Nebraska bill does not extend
the period of publication long enough
prior to the wedding date. Five days
is entirely too short a time for the
announcement to reach all parties
concerned, in many instances.
1t is reported that the Missouri leg
islature will be asked to pass mar
riage and divorce bill prepared in
Kansas City, which will be different
from both the Kansas or the Nebras-
ka measures. This emphasizes again
the desirability of some uniform ac-
ton, so that all the proposed laws in
these states may be as nearly alike
as possible. Perhaps it would be fea-
sible for small committees from each
OF the legislatures to meet in a con-
venient place and arrive at some uni
form plan of action. At least some
effort should be made to arrive at a
better understanding of the proposed
reform, so there will be no wide var
iation in the proposed enactments. It
might be desirable to publish the
banns in the home county of the
bride instead of the place of resi-
dence of the groom. The bride is
more frequently the victim of injudi-
cious marriage than the groom, and
it should be made practically impos-
sible for any girl to marry without
full information of her intention be-
ing placed before her parents and ma.
tural guardians.-K. c. Journal.

XIII Fake Advertising.

Fake, fraud or misleading advertis-

Kansas If the bill of Fry, Of Geary
county, introduced in the house today

a fine not exceeding $500 or impris-
onment in Jail for one year for viola
ton Of the act.
The bill reads in part as follows:
ANY person, firm or corporation OF
association. who with intent to sell
merchandise. securities or service di.

What Mr.. Bryan Says.

What the average Kansas democrat
thinks about Mr.. Wooster's position
is ably expressed by Hon. William
]. Bryan in the COmmoner Of Janu-
airy II. Under the heading, Political
Treason" Col. Bryan says:
1T is probably the work of sensa-
tional newspaper writer's, but reports
are still being sent out to the effect
that conspiracies are being formed
against Hon. ]. Hamilton Lewis, the
democratic candidate for the senate
in Illinois, and Judge W. H. 'Thomp-
son, the democratic candidate for the
United States senate in Kansas. ANY
democrat who contemplates joining
such conspiracy had better read
Gov. Wilson'S Hannah speech. II
used to be thought smart TO tbwart
the will Of the people, but that day
has passed. The public official who
embezzles power today finds himself
branded as a criminal. II he claims
to be democrat and attempts to
overthrow the will of the people he
proves that the claim is false. A
post norton examination of such a
man-and he is sure to die, young
would show that he did not have .
drop of democratic blood in him."
