COAL WILL BE SUPERSEDED
Little Doubt That Oil 10 to Be the Fu.
ture Naval Fuel-Has Many
Advantages.

The Introduction of the use Of oil as
most important development In naval
engineering since the advent of steam.
The naval authorities have been ex-
perimenting with oil as fuel for the
last fifty years, and its advantages
have long been recognized, but its use
has been restricted because of doubts
as to the existence of a sufficient sup
ply. 1t is now known, however, that
enough oil exists in the public lands Of
California alone to supply the needs
of the United States navy for CEN
fury at least.
Oil has a higher fuel value in pro
ducing steam than coal, giving q
greater evaporation of water, both per
pound of fuel and per square foot Of
heating surface. More important, how
ever, Is the fact that the fuel can be
taken on board great deal more rap
idly without manual labor, and with
out interruption of the ships routine.
Coaling has always been long, labori-
Gus and inconvenient process, dreaded
by every branch Of the service afioat.
With oil as fuel, the amount OF
smoke may be controlled, there are no
cinders and no delays or loss OF speed
due to the necessity of bringing coal
from remote bunker, OF to the ex-
haustion of the stokers. II makes pos
sibIe considerable reduction in the
crew, and makes less weight and
space necessary for boilers. These
savings in weight have made possible
the use of heavier armor ON the battle.

TO LIMIT GRADUATION EXPENSES

The superintendent of the city schols of Fl Paso announced a few days ago that graduation dresses for the girls of the El Paso high school must be limited to $2. %. This ap- plies to all girls in the high school, and, according to the superintendent, must be compiled with. While this oroer to many may seem like an un- wSrranted and unreasonable interfer- ence on the part of the superintend- ent, it is splendid plan and should be carried out in every school of the country.
 In every city, and in every school are children of we'll to do parents, who are able to supply them with everything they desire. and children of parents in moderate circumstances who find it an almost impossible task to dress them neatly and supply books and other expenses necessary to their school work. To children in this class an order that all gradu- ation dresses must be modest in price will mean that they are to be saved the humiliation and embarrass- ment that would have followed had there been no restrictions placed on the matter.

The Era has the utmost confidence that through the efforts of representatives in Congress to- gether with the cooperation of the Forestry De psrtment and the Board of Supervisors of this ty, splendid highway will be constructed con- meeting the lCliftonMorenci district with the forest of merchantable timber the Apache and Datil forest reserves. The government is anxious to dispose of the mature timber on those forests and the Clifton and Morenci mining district offers the market consuming annually millions of feet of timber which is shipped here from Oregon and Westinghouse rediculous example of shipping coals to Newcastle. The present Board of Supervisors win the everlasting gratitude and commenda- ton from the people of Greenlee if they will get in behind this meritorious proposition and bring it to successful issue. Everything comes to him who waits but it comes quicker if you go after it. The building of a splendid highway be- tween the northern portion of this county and the Clifton-Morenci district will add thousands and thousands of dollars annually trade account.

EAST AND WEST STATE HIGHWAY

The presence in this section of Hon. Lamar Cobb, State Engineer who is here for the purpose of a conference with the Greenlee County Board of Supervisors, regarding State Highway construc- tion in this section brings the fore the import ance of the early construction of the connecting link in the State Highway between Greenlee and Graham counties
 When the proper time comes the taxpayers of this district, including Metcalf. Clifton and Mo5 renci, will insist and urge before the Board and State Engineer the economy and convenience to the greatest number concerned of the construction of the connecting link between Greenee and Gra ham counties via the Gillard Hot Springs route.
 It is estimated that a bridge across the Gia can be constructed in the vicinity of Glard Hot Springs at cost of approximately twenty thousand dollars With the reconstruction and repair of the highway between here Duncan, for which road bonds have just issued; the building of the Gillard Hot Springs bridge, together with repair work, the Southern National Highway through Arizona would be open to traffic and would compare favor ably with any highway across the state, and would come it's full share of tourst traffic from the big fair San Francisco during the fall months.
 The Clifton-Morenci district abounds in magni- hcent scenery unsurpassed by any other county in the state and the county highways already constructed in the county compare favorably with similar construction anywhere in the west.
 We hope the Board and the State Engineer will work plan whereby the Clifon-Morenci district, which bears largest burden of taxation when it comes to road building, will receive some turns from the capital invested.

GOVERNOR HUNT sHoRN OF POWER

" When it became known that Governor Hunt had determined to prevent the enforcement of the law
 in this against murder in the first degree, soon after he was inaugurated the first executive of the new state, the people shocked and hardly believed that any official would undertake to stay written la no matter his personal opinion might be regarding capital punishment. But the determination of the in this course became so alarming in the state and among the mem bers of the first state legislature that it determ ined that should be passed which would lieve the governor of responsibility in the mat ter of enforcing the laws of the state far cutting sentence imposed by the criminal courts of the state concerned. In pursuance of this determination a law passed creating a state board of pardons composed of attorney gen. eral state superintendent of public tion citizen member to be named by those two state officials. This law besides providing this pardon stipulated that thereafter the governor of the State could issue pardon re- preve until such action should be recommended by the pardon board
 vetoed by the governor, but it passed over the veto by almost unanimous vote of the legislature many of the members of which had been the true friends of the implored him to withhold the veto but to no purpose. After the law passed the then the political Junta presided by the governor at circulated referendum petitions and tied up the law until last election, when it upheld by the voters of the state.
 But determined the governor that there should be executions ordered for murderers by the that he refused to recognize the law as by the legislature upheld by the popular vote of the people. h the face of the law creating the board pardons, after this board had been duly organized he issued a full pardon for convicted of murder in Gila county without consulting the pardon board. Superintendent R. B. Sims, at the prison, refused Hberate this prisoner, claiming the governor had authority a pardon without the having been rec omended by the board of pardons, then in existence
 Yesterdays dispatches brought the news that the State Supreme court, before whom the par don brough, decided that the pardon board had been properly provided and that the governor could issue pardons reprieves with cut it recommended by the pardon board. So may assume that so far as the governor is concerned will have more of the sentimental determination prevent hanging in Arizona. On this count Governor Hunt has been turned down by the state legislature by the people of the state sustain the legislature and by the high

Editorial Opinion
ARIZONA JUSTICE

Slowly but surely, the authority of
 the Court in Arizona is being estab-
 lished and protected against outside
 influence. Justice is groping her
 way out of maze created by dissen-
 sion. The law is in a fair way to exer- else that wholesome fear which is it's chief asset as a deterrent of crime.
 The Supreme Court of this State
 has delivered the opinion that the Ipardoning power can be exercised by a Chief Executive only as it is dele gated to him by the Board of Pardons for application in specific cases en- titled to clemency.
 The Supreme Court holds that the Judicial capacity of a Chief Executive is not superior to that of the Bench. The Supreme Court holds that the action of the people in creating Pardon Board and equipping it with authority, was taken in order to pro- vide, as it will provide, all the safe guard necessary against the miscarri- age of justice. The Supreme Court holds that this action of the people cannot be nullified arbitrarily by any Chief Executive whom the people may elevate to office.
 If it were not for the fact that Gov ernor Hunt engaged to abide by the peoples decision in the matter, as expressed at the same / election which returned him to office, charitable view of the situation would have it that he was honestly in doubt as to the judicial authority which rested, or did not rest, in his office. But ywaiving the inconsistency of his position as manifest by his attitude opposing the peoples will, and adopting the charitable view, it is well that a test case was prepared and the question of authority brought up for final adjudication.
 As the matter now stands, capital punishment in Arizona will not be sub- jected to the caprice of whomsoever is the incumbent of the highest office in the State. A Governor of shrinking sensibilities can no longer inf1ict his tender-heartedneSS, or chieken-heart- edness upon law enforcement. On the other hand, the danger contained in the presence of a bruitish executive inclined to railroad condemned man from the court to the gibbet, is removed. The people of this state have affirmed their belief in the nee essity for capital punishment. The decision of the Supreme Court that the intelligence of the entire elector- ate is entitled to respect, and to be respected in preference to the sen- timental consideration of one man, is a wise and logical decision.
 The price which Arizona has paid in having potoriety thrust upon her; the mental torture imposed upon the men alternately condemned to die and granted a lease of life; the false position in which juries and judges have been placed; and the quasi-in- suit to the voters of this State are things which unhappily, were attend ant on the situation created. More notoriety is bound to follow when the law takes it's course. When the | score is complete in all it's unsavori- | ness and sordiness, it will be time for | the individual to place the blame | where the individual believes it be- | longs .-Bisbee Review.
