The Recall


 No good citizen wants the application of should never be invoked because official has performed an act in the inc of his duties when there may be an honeet difference of opinion oerning the wisdom or ,re idyislbity of that act Such d use of the recall e.oalI tend bring that instrument of popular rule reproach.
 Recall petitions have been instituted against the mayor and two of the commissioners based upon what we believe be strongest possible grounds The movement has been started against them not because they have attempted to remove the city manager though the proceedings they have sane toned and participated in would be considered proper ground for invoking the recall Their sane ton their participation, indeed, form part of the evidence in support of the main accusation The petitions however disregard the attempted removal and 10 the very bottom of :he offense of the mayor and the two commissioners, their want of sympathy with the charter their disregard of it's provisions and violation of the provisions sep urutng the duties of the commission from those of ,ile city manager. The mayor has publicly de nounced the charter, and the other two members by their actions and by their votes have de nounced it.
 a president of the United States should con,emn the constitution of the United States all would agree that that would be proper ground for ais impeachment and removal from office The charter is the constitution of Phoenix.
 Many citizens will perhaps sign the recall peti lions because of their sympathy with the city man aeer: others will sign of them because U a personal dislike of the officers against whom they directed, but the majority Of the signers will be impeled by such motives but by their belief in the hostility of the mayor and the commission the charter which the people have approved. Some personal friends the accused will sign the petitions because they love the mayor and the commissioners less, but Phoenix lnore to paraphrase Mark Antony.
 The Republican has ill-feelins against any member of the commission From the beginning it earnestly supported the commission when it could do 1t criticised the weakness of the majority with respect ordinance last June. rather strongly criticised the majority when it passed infamous No 13 last July. But all that the commission did not bad, but the bad has shadowed the good. But whatever the balance O either side have been. the attitude of the major ity toward the charter is the thing that has been presented to the people.

TENANT SYSTEM
(Continued from Page One)

government in handling the Indian lands
 Prof. Auston said that 90 per cent of the contracts between the landlords and tenants in Texas are verbal and fifty per cent are for one year only with the result that neither the tenant or land owners are able to improve az ricultural and living conditions on thousands of farms. The custom of tenants, he said, in mortgaging their crops ahead on notes which nearly all fall due in october and November meant their economic bondage"
 Pat Nagle of King Fisher, Oklahoma, editor of the Tenant Farmer described conditions in his state where he said there were 104000 tenant farmers and that of 95,000 farmers owning their farms, eighty per cent hal mortgaged their land.

STRANGE MIGRATIONS O. FISH

In the March American Magazine, Cleveland Moffett writes another article in his Doing the Impossible" series. The present article is titled, Living Wonders of the Deep Sea-" and it is report of important discoveries recently made by oceanographers fishing three four miles down in the In the following extract taken from the article, MT. MOffett describes of the strange migraons of deepsea fish:
 Experiments by Prof. AgassZ on the Alba tross,, and by other OceanOgraphers, have clearly demonstrated that various species of deep dwelling fish practice up and down migration from the lowest depths, where they pass the day, mile or two beneath the surface to higher levels of the ocean, half mile, miie two miles higher, to which levels they rise at night This seems to be their regular scheme of existence, up night, down in the daytime Some of these deep dwellers. when darkness falls, ascend almost to the ocean surface and then having accomplished their purpose, des cend again
 What is their purpose? It is the simple and natural of getting food for themselves. food be- ing more abundant in the upper levels than in the depths. And they come up at night because many of the fierce top dwelling fish, swift darting mack ere, for instance unable to at night. which leaves the slow and puny depth dwellers free to feed small shrrps. crustaceans, fish larvae. etc, that float ahundantly at and near the surface, whereas in daylight they themselves would be de- voured by their powerful enemies. These upward migraors from the depths have enormous eyes which, doubtless, enable them to perfectly in the moon and light dffused through the upper levels, that must to them brilliantly ilumin- ated after the utter darkness below
 Tt may be mentioned that the method by which these deep-sea fish accomplish their nightly vert- cal migration is very much of a mystery as there IS a difference between the near surface water pres and that at three-mle depth of several tons to the square inch. How do these weak. frail crea- lures accommodate themselves to this enormous below and then to the release of this pres above? What therl the double peril Of being crushed they go down blown to pieces by the force of released from their bodies as they go up? And how do they alter their specific gravity to ascend for a mile or two at will and then descend for mile CT two. it being noted that they have bladders%'

SAUCE FOR THE GANDER

Even editor usually recognizes the real thing at first glance it's the hafs,ccesses that win rec ognton only after long wandering. In spite Of the many sad tales of unrecognZed d genius and of mas terpieces going begging for publication, the really first-water literary gems are snapped Cp without much delay. The extraordinary success of Peter B. Kyne is evidence of this; fully three -fourths of Mir. Kynes stories it is said have been sold "at first ntentiOn;" and an the remainder have been placed third offering. Nor is this phenomenal record a matter for surprise. For ex- ample consider his la test story, Sauce for the Gander,'' in the March Red Book magazine A San Francisco waterfront cr.mp marries and raises up a son-a fine boy. who rebels at the fathers busi- To break the youth in, the father has the son shanghaied; three years later the son comes back and turns the tables in way that achieves marvel of poetic justice. The plot alone of course, is very little; but Mr. Kyne has told his story with a really marvellous power and insight; and he has created group of characters that will live in ones memory long after the rec ollection the majority of our living human acqua utances has faded.

The Advertisement of Phoenix

Arizona has had great deal of undesirable ad vertising within the last year. with the legislation which was attempted last November but which for tunately failed because of the awkward preparation of it. But the temper of the people advertised, nevertheless, and those who thinking of mak- ls their homes in the investing capital here have been given reason fear that the people may not blunder the next time. community which must depend upon it's blundering immunity against itself is in a rather precarous situation. Blunderers learn by experience.
 But Phoenix, than any other part of the state, has been unfavoraby advertised through the efforts of those who trying break down the commissions manager system of government Be- ginning early last summer, the failure of the com mission manager form advertised throughout the length and breadth the land the great de- light of certain element in Phoenix, willing to sacrifice the good and prosperity of the city for the overthrow of business system of gov elnment. It has been advertised that though that system may be successful everywhere else, cannot succeed in Phoenix; the people too free and in dependent too partisan to submit to hard and fast business methods which interfere with offcehoders and those who want to hold office Phoenix, of all places. is too democratic the word in it's broad, and it's partisan. meaning) to be busi- ness-like
 Now, we have the attempted removal of the city manager and the natural sequence the preparation for the recall of the who, yielding the sfracy to besmirch the managerial system, have at tempted his removal. Meanwhile Phoenix is being advertised to it's disadvantage it's loss in dollars and cents and it's unattractveness to prospective good citizens is thereby also advertised
 At the regular municipal election and at the sub sequent recall election, certainly the good citizens of Phoenix-there many of :hem who have
 genuine interest in the city than there of those who have only selfish interest-will so bestir them selves to redeem Phoenix from the effect of the evil report which for year has been flying to the four cornefs of the country.
