Mandalay is not only real city but

queer armed figures and three.headed
elephants in steel. These were
brought from Arakan at the time OF

this pagoda has acquired much fame

Attorney General Contends Courts
Cannot Change Legislative Enact
ment In Civil Service Bill.

Denver.--The right of the Legisla.
ture to attach the safety clause with.
out restriction and thereby enact
measures in form to prevent their
reference to the people was argued
in brief filed in the Supreme Court
by the attorney general. The brief
Is In answer to the contentious OF
counsel for the Civil Service Reform
League. which is attempting to com.
pei submission to the referendum
of the amended civil service law
passed by the Legislature last winter.
In connection with the attempted
referendum It has developed that, re-
gardless of the outcome of the pres
ent litigation, civil service will be an
Issue at the general election In No
vember, 1916 At that time the peo.
pie will pass on the question of in
cooperating civil service in the state
constitution through a new amend
ment, thereby removing from the Cen
eral Assembly the right to change the
merit system through statutory acts.
When the petition to refer the civil
service bill was circulated the Civil
Service Reform League also circulated
petition for civil service constitu-
tional amendment. 1t is now in the
hands of the league, with some II
signatures attached An additional
5000 or 5000 names must be obtained
before 1t is filed
The chief argument made in support
of the Legislatures exclusive right to
suspend the operation of the referen.
DUN is that the courts, as constituting
one coordinate branch of the govern
ment, are forbidden by the constitu-
ton itself from interfering with an
other coordinate branch. The judici-
ary. legislative and executive, consti'
tute the three coordinate branches.

Low "Up.keep" Carburetor
The carburetor used the Maxwell was espec-
tally designed for it after long and severe tests
under every conceivable condition. Economy tours
conducted by hundreds Of dealers and owners in
different sections of the country have proved its
eficiency, its quick response to throttle and its
extremely low consumption Of gasoline. It has
been termed the low up-keep" carburetor.
Reversible Steering Gear
The greatest margin Of safety has been pro-
vided in the steering gear of the 1915 Maxwell.
The Maxwell irreversible steering mechanism is
OF the expensive worm and-gear type and its SUI
periority over every other type lies in its many
adjustments. At no time is more than a fourth of
the bearing surface of the gear which operates
the worm in When needed, a new bearing
surface may be had by adjusting the gear quarter
OF turn. In short. the Maxwell steering gear
has four times the adjustment Of any other kind.
