Great is reform while 1t is in the
preaching stage. and the reformers,
(who want the jobs) can give wings to
their lnaginations for predictions and
promises But, oh. what difference
when it comes to practical tests with
the facts in evidence!
out in Oregon where the people are
free and Independent of time -honored
customs and conventionalities, the re-
formers found virgin field, SO to
speak, and the people We're ready to
give a willing ear to the wonderful
promises.
The people of Oregon, as well as
some of the other western states, were
charmed by the oratory and were eag-
er to give the plans a trial They
adopted that grand panacea for all hu-
man ills, the initiative and. referendum,
together with popular nominations
woman suffrage, and all the other no
lions which the reformers insist upon
for regenerating human nature by sta
tute law.
There are special elections every
week or so which are ignored by the
majority Of the voters, and silly legis-
lation is enacted which makes end
less trouble with no possible benefit
At the last state election in California
for example, there were some 30 con
stitutional amendments submitted fol
the popular vote, and it is easy to i'm
agine the consideration which coult
be given to voters to the measures des
ignated only by brief headings.
There is one characteristic featur,
in all these so-called reforms as urg
ed by the alleged reformers. All ap
peal to the people direct, but all impl!
the idea Of force to compel obedienc'
from the majority While demanding
government by the people direct, more
over. they are not willing to trust tn
people for a sober second thought, blu
insist on amendments to the constitu
tion so that the first snap judgmen
can not easily be reversed.
Your reformer is never content wit
arguing in a common sense way t
show the advantages of his theories
but he boldly sets forth his plans an
in place of arguing, rants and vituper
ates against all who hesitate as reac
tionaries, imbeciles and downright
criminals
Your reformer, or progressive as h
calls himself, also wants the power TO
himself He is not satisfied to hav
others work out the reforms, and in
sists that he alone Is the only one full
competent to do-the coercing.

box. Electric engines can be run al
fairly uniform speed and in making
the long heavy mountain climbs they
should be as efficient for the last few
miles approaching the summit as they

Electricity Provides Power, Light and
Heat.
liberalization also gives electricity
for both power and lighting purposes
at any point along the line where II
can be used to advantage, such as the
lighting and heating of stations, OPP
Grating any machines requiring pow
err, etc. 1t is commended that a larger
number of trains can be operated over
a single main track when operated
electrically than when operated by
steam power, and for this reason a
single track line can be worked eco
nomically for a much longer period
after the business becomes so dense
as to ordinarily require a second main
track.
There are undoubtedly many diff
culties which will be encountered in
electrical operation, but the above are
few of the theoretical advantages,
some of which have been brought out
by actual operation OF electrical
trains"

Has Had an Eventfu, Career.

For Two days the eastern newspapers
had been clamoring for news, and there
was no one to send it, Mr.. Carnahan
could not leave his official work, and
there was no other telegraph operator
within 200 miles.
To the Herald the Chicago Inter
Ocean and the st. Paul Pioneer Press
he sent as much of the news as he had
strength to prepare. And that was the
way the news of the Custer battle was
sent out.
That was the big news article in
the career of John Carnahan. But in
the professional secrets of SO years al
a telegraph key there must be many
incidents stored up which would startle
the world If they were told. There
were many thrilling messages pass
ing during the early years of his SER
vice at the key--the years when he
was on the border between north and
south in the civil war.
Mr. Carnahan is the man who handled
official correspondence between Prcsl-
dent Grant and Custer at Bismarck
which preceded the Little Big Horn
expedition and which has always been
supposed to have caused the resent
ment which drove General Custer to
recklessness on that fatal ride.

Big Stock and Real Estate Deal

On Tuesday of this week Geo H. Barney and Roy U. Barney sold their ranches and range cattle, horses, farming implements, tanks and such other things as usually go with transfer of realestate and stock to s. M. Goodwin and D. J. Shea of Prescott. We could not learn what the consideration was, but will no doubt reach good sum az Mir. Barney has an ideal ranch and plenty of stock.
 Although the war is in the vest ern theatre has resolved itself of late into desultory fighting, the sol dier who is killed in a desultory manner does not find any advan- tage in meeting that fate.
 Those who charge that President Wilson has no conception of diplo. macy should consider his attitude toward woman suffrage. Turkish soldiers marchine against the Suez canal have 5O( camels with them, perhaps they will drink the canal dry. i Col.
