WET WHISTLES
 UNDISTURBED BY LAW
(From Saturdays Daily)

Enforcement of the Arizona pro hibition law has taken on a new as pect since the decision of the Ari- zona Supreme court that the consti- tutional amendment that went into effect January l. 1915. is unconstitu- tional and void in so far as it affects persons having liquor in their pos session for their own use, stated As sistant United States District Attor- ney O'Connor, yesterday. The de cision, which was lately affirmed by the United States Supreme court in an appeal taken by the Adams EX- press Company. has effectually open ed the gates of Arizona to shipments of liquor from outside territory.
 Mir. O'Connor. who was swampcd with complaints before the decisions referred to were handed down, says that there has not been a single com plaint since. and that prosecutions un- der the law forbidding inSrstate ship ments of liquor into Arizona has be- come a lost art
 When the opinion was rendered. dealers in liquors were appraised early of the position taken by the  courts, and now the sign. "Wc ship liduors to Arizona" can be seen in the windows of a great majority of the local liquor houses.
 All that is now necessary to do is to ship the stuff openly to prohibit ton Arizona, being careful to see that it is properly marked. Several complaints have been recently hle1 because the marking was misleading.
 The judgment of the Federal court, it is pointed out, is in harmony with that recently handed down involving the enforcement of the Harrison anti narcotic law. 10 the effect that per. son having opium. morDhine or any of their derivatives. in his or her pos session, intending the same for their own use and not for sale or to be given away, could not be successfully prosecuted under the law.-Los An geles Times.

were just enough autos to accommo- date the party, although there was some delay in getting the last unit off.
 The machines went oyer the inn 1T loop by way of Miller valley. They turned of the main road just after reaching the target range and passed through the Bianconi ranch. MF Bianconi had unlocked all the gates leading through his place and piloted the leading machine over his new road through the Granite Dells and down to the lake.
 The roads were perfect at all points. The heavy rain of Thursday afte"- noon had laid all the dust and the roadbed was smooth and firm. The beauties of the Dells as seen from the new road proved revelation, not only to the visitors who had never been to Prescott before. but also 10 practically all the drivers of the cars.
 Under the big cottonwood trees ;.t the lake, the Payne brothers had ar ranged number of tables. A lunch consisting of two kinds of sandwiches, potato salad, coffee, doughnuts, cook ies, and miscellaneous fruits was serv- ed shortly after noon. The entire party of over 100 passed merry half hour. The pleasure of the picnic was largely increased by the presence 1f numerous ladies and children.
 Shortly before l o'clock, the party resumed their autos. Just as they started for town. thunder storm broke but the machines were able t. run away from the clouds and quick ly left the storm behind them.
 The committee in charge of the CT tertainmcnt of the delegates consisted of E. s. Clark, chairman, F. R. Mines. A. II. Powers and Richard Lamsol The funds for meeting the rather heavy expenses of the convention anc its entertainment were secured 5l popular subscription.

DELEGATES HAD THE
 TIME OF THEIR LIVES
(From Saturdays Daly.0

Many and warm were the express- sions of appreciation for Prescott : hospitality and the joys of a meet ing in the Mile High City heard from the delegates to the Republican State convention. The universal chorus was: We are certainly glad we came and we will wait eagerly for chance to come again"
 Because the hotels were unwilling to hold rooms during the first of Frontier Days unless they were paid for, the committee in charge of the entertainment of the delegates found it necessary to call on C. E. Gentry and Wm. Glenn of the accommoda- tions committee. With their cooper ation, nice rooms in private resi- dences were secured for all the dele gates and their wives. In many in stances payment was refused.
 On Thursday evening. the dance and reception held at the Yavapai Club, brought together a large num- Der of the delegates. Numbers ot Prescott's prettiest girls and matrons assisted in entertaining and the party was full of interest. Since many of the delegates did not know the newer dances. every other dance was waltz. In these all could participate. The music of Jack Abbott and Mrs. Lester Ruffner was remarkably good, and when it was augmented about ll:3O with the Hawaiian orchestra that had earlier performed at the Elks' theatre, the final touch was given to re- markably pleasant evening. The Ha- waiian orchestra was the happy thought of LeRoy Anderson, who en- gagged the musicians at the last mo- ment at his own expense.
 By II o'clock everyone had gotten acquainted and the stiffness of the unusual had yielded to the warmth of geniality. With Tom Campbell in charge of the floor. the time for go- ing home was postponed again and apain and it was not until ? o'clock that the musicians were allowed 10 quit.
 The Auto Trip.
 By 9 o'clock yesterday morning the delegates began to report at the cor ner of Gurley and Cortez streets for the auto trip. While a number of those who had promised their ma chimes failed to materialize, there

Iaqui struggled with steer for five minutes and at last pinned his horns to the ground and threw him.
 John Fredericks made best time in the roping contest, getting his steer in nine seconds. Herb Cook was lucky, his steer not being fast and roped the animal in 10 35 seconds Clyde Miller scored in II 2-5 sec onds and Frank Thompson in II 4-5 seconds. Three women took part in the contest two of them making bet ter time than most Of the men. Mrs. Joe Rudy and Mrs. Oscar Cornell roped their steers in IA seconds. Mrs Reg Forbes made two good tries, but her rope became tangled in her hat and she was disqualified.
 Throughout the afternoon there was one puncher who looked as if he had lost the best friend he had ever known. This was Lone Jor- dan. Lone made good in every con test he entered Tuesday and stood a good chance to come in strong on the finals. but he put his ankle out of commission that day and will be unable to take part in any more events this year. Jordan proved him self good sport, however, by try ing his best to look cheerful yester- day and cheering the other punchers,
 Every event yesterday was put on without a hitch, due mainly to the efforts of Arena Director F. Lee Ha- worth, who mas all of the contestants cooperating with him in good shape.

MuddEng.

Ever since the Spanish-American
war the United States has been con-
fronted with the task of building an
adequate system of administrative
agencies for the government of in
sular possessions. In the period
that has intervened the American
governments policy has been char
acterized by what the English call
"muddling along"
Just how badly the United States
has "muddled" is demonstrated by
the fact that Porto Rico has no rep
resentation in the Capitol, although
modification of its organic law is
to be enacted by the present session
of Congress, if President Wilson's
recommendation is needed.
Luis Munoz Rivera, Porto Rico's
delegate to Congress, died several
weeks ago. There is contained in
the Foraker act, which is the existing
organic law of the island possession,
no provision for the selection of a
successor to Congressional dele
gate who might be removed from
his activities by death or resignation.
The Foraker act was placed on the
statute books to meet an emergency
in 1902, with the expectation that
Congress would speedily replace it
with a carefully constructed law that
should meet all possible develop
ments in our "coloniaP administra-
ton. That necessary work has not
been done.
The result is that when Congress
in few days shall hold a memorial
service to mark the passing of Mr..
Rivera, there will be no representa-
tive of Porto Rico in the halls of
Congress to respond to the express
sions fitting to the occasion which
will be voiced by the members.
The fact, is not complimentary to
Americas legislators.
The Jones bill, which has received
the commendation of President Will
son, is calculated to meet the condi-
tion resulting from the remissness of
Congress in ignoring the plain needs
of the rich possession of the nation
in the Indies.
A little more speed and quite a
bit more thoughtfulness of the in
terests of Porto Rico wouldn't be
amiss.

PLEA FOR SOUTHERN YULE,
Tuskegee Normal Principal Request,
Contributions for Negro Children.


Editor The Washington Herald: The
late DR.. Booker T. Washington, foun-
der Of the Tuskegee Institute, year by
year appealed to generous friends for
Christmas remembrances of one kind and
another to be distributed through him
to the colored children Of the South who,
without such Christmas remembrances,
would have nothing to remind them of
the Christmas season.
Floods. the boil weevil. and industrial
conditions generally among the negro
farming classes have brought about a
rather depressing state of affairs. MANY
people are in actual distress and want,
while in hundreds and thousands Of
homes there will be little to indicate
that Christmas is a time of JOY and
blessing. Anything whatsoever, no mat
ter how inexpensive, will brighten a ST.
uaton otherwise largely unrelieved by
any cheering ray.
I shall be glad to serve as did DR..
Washington. that is. to act as the in
termediary through whom the pupils
may transmit their gifts to these chill
dren. and to take pains to see that they
reach those who are worthy, distributing
them over as wide a section Of the South
as possible, through Tuskegee off-shoot
schools. graduates, former students,
Jeanes' Fund workers. etc, etc

SEES PROHIBITION PERVERTED.
H. ID. Parker Comments on w J.
Bryan's Championship of Principle.

H. d. Parker Comments on w j.
Bryan's Championship of Principle.
President-at-Large Bryan dictated to
Secretary Tumulty his program OF legis-
lation for the next four years.
Again he talked Of "the great moral
ISSUE" though this time he says 1t is
saloon versus home" meaning to take
the whiskey bottle from the saloon shelf
and place 1t In the kitchen cupboard,
where 1t is handler.
Again l have to call attention to his
moral turpitude. Prohibition is not mere
ly q fight against the saloon, as he
would insidiously and falsely now hedge.
but q wholesale attack on our moral
standard OF temperance, an attempt to
make total abstinence q new moral law.
an attempt to make the act of drinking
glass OF beer both sin and crime.
Bryan is not one Of those fanatical
Puritans but q most elegant politician:
observing a strong political force which
he cannot destroy by direct attack he
seeks to lead It into other paths, to mis-
lead.
The main idea at the present time is
to fll the public mind with plenty of
domestic affairs and cover up the un-
pleasant fact that Tammany has taken
control OF our foreign policies. and is
guiding them towards a goal not desired
by the prohibitionists.
THE great moral issue" does not exist
as such. Created by the Puritan it has
been seized by the politicians and per-
verted to other purposes. As a political
move It Is clever work. but I doubt II
the people will be deceived much longer.
