BEGS PEOPLE TO
LEAVE The old
PARTIES
THEODORE ROOSEVELT MAKES
APPEAL TO THE VOTERS
OF IOWA

Des Moines To-, Sept. 24.-"My
main plea to you here In Iowa is
that you vote as you really think,
and do not permit yourselves to let
loyalty to names make you disloyal
to principles" Colonel Theodore
Roosevelt SAID to his hearers at a
meeting of progressives here last
night CAS- at present controlled and
managed, the democratic and republi-
can parties are as poor instruments
with which to work out the welfare
of the country as were the democratic
and whig parties 60 years ago when
the republican party was first found
ed. Abraham Lincoln was then
man of middle age and all his life
long had been a whig. He found
that he could be true to the prin-
ciples which had made Henry Clay
whig only by refusing longer to be
fettered by allegiance to a party
name. He left the party with which
for quarter of century he had
been identified and which had elect
ed him to office and joined the new
party-the progressive party of that
day.
For the first six years of it's ex-
istence, the then progressive party, /
the republican party had to struggle |
with all the difficulties with which |
the progressive party today is now
with. There were foolish |
radicals who said it did not go far
enough, and foolish conservatives
who said it went too far. Moreover
there were plenty well-meaning men
who wished the prooressives instead |
of standing by their own men to sup !,
port near-progressives in both the old
parties. They insisted, as we now see
with entire accuracy, that the old par
ties, because of their constitutions and
traditions because of the make up Of
the men in control of them, were en-
tirely unfit to meet the new condi-
tions, and that to support near
in one OF the old parties
meant merely to throw back the whole
Senator Cummins and those who
rain with him are on the wrong
rack. They cannot be true to the
I'D time principles of Lincoln's and
incolns' day as long as they con-
inue their association with the ut
erly reactionary republican machine
S now controlled in the nation and
n the largest and most populous
tates. We must not let our loyalty
o name blind us to existing facts. q

THE OWNERS PROTEST

Santa Fe, Sept. 24.-Assistant Sec
tary A. A. Jones of the department of
the interior has directed stiff letter
to the water users between Leasburg
and Fabens under the Elephant Butte
project, threatening them that unless
they sign up the government contracts
by November 1, that other units will
be started first by the reclamation
service. Incidentally he calls atten-
ton to the fact that there is a large
area of land in Texas below the pres
ent project, the owners Of which are
eager to be included in the project if
the Mesilla valley land owners do not
ccme through. If so per cent of the
latter, however, sign up, they are
promised that construction work will
begin at once on the diversion dams
and canals on the various units Of the
Rio Grande project, and the land own
ers between Leasburg and F'abens are
to be given the first opportunity.
Land owners, however, are already
beginning to complain of the cost to
them of the reclamation project and
assert that had the works been con-
structed under private ownership, as
had been contemplated by DR.. Nathan
Boyd. the cost to them would have
been less. BoyT, however, and the
English capitalists whom he had in
had been prevented by the
government from building the dam on
the plea that it interfered with the
navigation of the Rio Grande.

Through its executive board, on Wnich

TENDER session. renewed consideration
Of the subject, taking action Inal
leaves no doubt as TO its position
In the adopted report Of special
committee named at the seml-annual
meeting OF the entire association,
chairman H A Bonnell sets forth that
in only four states is IL possible TO
personal tax The association remains
opposed TO the payment Of the two
taxes. designated as "a constitutional
infringement Of the principles OF equal
taxation and the rights Of the citizens
Of a state who own automobiles
Referring TO the general tendency
to increase both the registration tax
and automobile values when taxed as
personal property. the committee con-
flutes the assumption that any double
tax is justified because Of sO-called eX-
cessive destruction Of the roads. which
it asserts is not borne out by the actual
facts. and furthermore. il is held that
automobiles have an equal right with
all other vehicles to the free use Of the
public highways, built and maintained
BY general taxation.
The proposal by congress to add an
additional excise tax for purposes Of
revenue is claimed TO be be uuiustified
and unfair, and would be a species of
special taxation upon means OF trans
portauon which has become OF such
common use that II would be burden

As RACE DRIVER
Would Pilot a Car in the Los

Race in November.

venustiano CarraHza- JrY wants a
chance to drive a car IN the Los An
geles 90 Phoenix race in November.
He has written a letter from Yuma to
q Los Angeles motor car dealer and
this is what the Los Angeles Tribune
says Of him:
When Carranza ST, began his insur-
rection against Huerta, he offered the
command q company Of volunteers
to his son, VenustianO Carranza, who
was private secretary to president Ma
derO before his ASSASSINATION 10
he disgust and chagrin OF CarranZa
his son declined the command. de-
claring he would have no part in the
uprising Whether it was a beautiful
senorita or moral scruples matters
little. Carranza believed his son a
coward, and has believed so ever since.
Carranza, following his quarrel
with his father. left his home in
Chihuahua and visited some friends
in Yuma His fathers accusations
have been hot in his mind, however,
and he has been constantly seeking
father that other motives than cow
ardice impelled him TO refuse a com
mand in the rebel army.
Young CarranZa is an enthusiastic
mOtorist- His father has owned
cars for many years and the boy has
become proficient in driving them
over desert roads and in making
hasty repairs when any are necessary.
The time for the Phoenix race was
approaching, and young Carranza saw
in it a chance to make good with his
father and have the excitement Of
driving in the fierce desert contest.
So he wrote the following letter from
Dear Sir: Ny father told me last
winter that I didn't have the nerve Of
a goat because refused TO Join his
army. I want to prove him wrong in
his estimation Of me and at the same
time re-establish myself in the family
