KID HIKERS HAVING THE TIME OF THEIR YOUNG LIVES AT DAM
Word Brought Back by Returning Leader Is That All Are We'll, Eating All They Can Hold,
 and Still Going Strong

[ Professor Colodny. who accompanied the young Kid Hillers on the first stage of their journey to Roosevelt, returned to the city yesterday, being called back on important business. He reports that the youngsters are ! having the time of their young lives. and that so far none have exhibited the least sign of homesickness or fla tigue.
 Yesterday the kids walked sixteen miles, and part of the bunch climbed "a large mountain in addition. George Simpson, the youngest and smallest one of the entire lot, made the whole sixteen miles and the trip to the top of the mountain without one word of protest.
 The professor stated last evening that if the way the lads are eating is any criterion of the manner in which they usually stow away food at home, it is no wonder that there is a high cost of living problem.
 Plenty to eat has been the principal worry of the kids all the time. and so far the leaders have not disap- pointed them.
 Not an accident has marred the trip. all are well and enjoying the fine fishing at the dam.
 The outfit will leave Roosevelt to- day and make the trip home in a roundabout way, arriving here Satur- day.

OLD TRAILS ROUTE IS
 CLOSED TEMPORARILY

Parties thinking of making an auto trip to the northern part of the state, would do well to take notice of the advice given by a Prescott auto party who have just come through the stretch of road between Williams and Flagstaff
 They say that big slide has taken place on that stretch of the old Trails route, making the road prac- tically impossible.
 IL will be several weeks before a cut through the slide is opened, and in the meantime the toll charges by teamsters for pulling out the mired autoists are outrageously high.

That the act Of the Car in taking
command Of the Russian armies por-
tends the retirement Of the Grand
Duke NICHOLAS from the direction Of
the forces In the field Is highly i'm.
probable. The strategy OF the Grand
Duke must be judged from his sue
cessful campaign in Galicia culminat-
Ing in the taking OF Przemysl. and
not from the collapse OF the Russian
offence and the loss Of Warsaw.
So long as the armies Of the Car
had a sufficient supply OF ammunition
for immediate use they were formi.
dable, although there was no such rail.

The enemy Is almost at the gates

all want to try and forget the humiIia-
ton which the verdict of all clvilizatlon
has brought against one Of our States
Georgia, In the ~lynching OF Leo NJ
Frank, but Just a word to ask WHY no
one has pointed out what is the mos,
astonishing phase of the AFFAIR. Are
these Southerncrs all gentlemen? When
they had committed the deed OF
lynching, which we are told by tina
Georgia authorities was the work az
slow, sincere and honest conviction in
the belief mat Frank was guilty, whv
did not those men, after the death OF
their victim, come forth proudly and
give themselves up 10 Justice as the
vengers Of an innocent girl, ready to
take the consequences of what their
consciences forced them to do, even to
breaking the highest OF laws? No, they
did not have the moral courage to pay
for their "gallantry," They skunk back
as the murderers they were to their
shelters, not one coming out among
them as n man, "a Southern gentleman"
to pay for the honor Of having tortured
and killed a Jew, one who had led a
clean life and who was convicted only
by the word of a negro perjurer.

HOW ST. LOUIS FEELS.
The Prohibition Issue Alleged to Pro-
duce an International Eject.

To THE EDITOR OF The SuN-Str: The
Globe-Democrdt states the truth when
II. says the Neutrality League meeting
was a frost, but the cause OF the rail-
ure was not the lack OF pro-German
feeling in this city. II was beer.
Nothing ever likes place here without
some connection with a brewery, and In
this instance IL was I lred that III a too
strong German feeling was shown II
might help the Prohibition cause, as
nearly all the whiskey and beer busi-
ness, in fact all the beer and fully eS
per cent. OF the whiskey business. Is In
German hands.
1t Is true that a very strong FEELING
prevails here against the President be-
cause of his failure to stop munition
shipments to the Allies.
1t Is very open and pronounced when
the pro-Germans are In a beer hall or
club OF German gatherings.
Missouri is now so per cent. dry. II
Is expected that the next elections Will
make 1t more than 60 per cent. dry. The
"drys" declare for a wholly dry state
within n few years. and from what has
taken place and up TO the present 1t
looks as though the "drys" are on the
way to victory for their cause. Hence
the lea que" failure. AMERICAN.

Mr.. kinkead Stages . Poor Act In
Pretty Good Show.

In practical recognition Of the re
sponsibility Of public utterance we
are moved to add a word to what was
said in The SUN II few weeks ago
about The Battler Of Bayonne," the
Honorable EUGENE L. kINKEAD, Sher-
iff, by divine right and the acknowl-
edgment of all men, Of Hudson county
IN New Jersey. As an anti-bOss boss,
loving not the organization less
but Il popular reform more as Weber
to Orro WIrrPENN's Fields; as Con-
gresham, careful candidate for a
postmastership, Senatorial POSSIBLE
ity" and, especially, as the Navarrean
White Plume in the helmet of the
institution of S%hrievalty, the honor
able EUGENE, GENE OF the mulbitudes,
has been a man OF the crowd, yet In
the crowd a man apart.
At Bayonne the Sheriff was what
every one loves, a battler. His deeds
in those crowded days are not yet
and will not be oon forgotten. He
acted as good a drama as SHAKE
sPEARE ever wrote, and ousted the
earlier claimant to inheritance of the
qualities of TARTARIN OF Tarascon.
THE Sun, discerning unusual treas.
ures Of character" praised the Sher-
In for that In him which was good,
and promised that no shillelagh OF
ours should descend upon n skull 80
packed with inventlveness Of means
for the public entertainment.
But with his scheme OF dry re-
form in his Jail GENE the Genius
becomes GENE the Jejune. The mur.
derers, burglars, wife deserters in his
pledge club" are intoxicated by his
voice of distilled silver and his effer.
yescent manner.
This latest cntup cancels all that
went before. The shillelagh shrlnks
from n castigation 40 unworthy Of its
ancient and honorable tradition. This
Is n case for n shlngle. The Honor
able EUGENE +. KINKEAp should be
taken to the woodshed by some kind
friend, acting more in sorrow than In
anger, who would administer that
old medicine of proved efficacy that
pains the giver more than Il hurts
the taker and may he relied upon to
cure bad boys Of their badness ami
foolish ones Of their folly.

Don't Forget the Philippines.

When an ex-President OF the United
States crlticises the Governor-Genernl
Of the Philippines in such uncompro.
missing terms rs those which Mr.. TAFT
at San Francisco applied to Mr.. FRAN
CTS BURTON HARRISON 1t is time for
the American people to begin to take
serious notice OF what Is going on In
our island dependency. The judicial
c%arefulness OF Mr.. TAFT as a public
monitor, his freedom from the blatant
habit Of exalted demacogues, wins
sure respect for all his public utter
ances, but In this matter he speaks
with the added qualifications for ou-
thority Of a specialist.
When. therefore, the former Secre-
tary Of War and first American civil
Governor of the Filiplnos says def
nitely that the present executive In
the Islands Is ignorant of "the people
and their problem" that his reliance
for counsel Is in native politicians 'of
not the highest standing" and that
his removals of experienced American
officials in favor Of native Office seek.
ers is demorallzing the civil service
1t is impossible to couple the criticism
with the partisan and Interested"
attacks often made. This is expert
criticism, and on a subject of deepest
import TO the American people.
Mr.. TAFr's suggestion that In the
Philippines we may he developing an
other Mexico is startling indeed. AMI
not incredible. There must be no eN-
tension Of the unfortunate principle
Of "watchful waiting" Our Mexican
troubles may have been forced upon
U.S.. but in the Philippines we are max
ing U own fate. A Philippine inter
vention following q too early Philip
pine Independence woulu be an inef-
faceable disgrace.
