JONES RETURNS FROM
 SAN FRANCISCO MEET
Corporation Commissioner Made Coast Trip to Protect Interests Of
 Cattlemen of State

F. A. Jones, member of the state corporation commission. who had keen at San Francisco for the past few days attending a hearing before the Interstate Commerce commission, returned yesterday morning. He rep resented the commission in an action instituted against some of the rail- roads of the western states. Judge Barnum of this city was also present at the hearing, as the representative of the Arizona Cattle Growers As sociation.
 It seems that for some time past. there has been disposition on the part of certain roads operating in this section to avoid payment of the full amount of damages in cases where cattle were injured Y killed while in the hands of the companies for shipment. Some time ago the roads drew up form of bill of lad ing. which they compelled all ship pers to sign, limiting the liability of the carrier to sum not exceeding 275 per head in case any animals

THEODORE ROOSEVELT PRAISES THE BATTLE
 CRY 0f PEACE

Among thousands of letters received by J. Stuart Blackton producer of The Battle Cry of Peace" which will be shown at the Empress theater at an early date, there was one from eX- President Roosevelt. It reads as fol- lows:
 July 12, 1915. My Dear MT. Blackton:
 1 wish you all success in your enter prise. Every man worth being called a man should realize that if he has the right to vote, then it is his duty to bear arms. We Americans claim to be a nation of freemen. Freemen do their own fighting. They do not hire the other people to do their fighting for them: and if they are not fit and willing to do their own fighting they are unfit to be freemen. The duty of military services should be as wide spread as the rights to vote.
 Sincerely yours,
 THEODORE ROOSEVELT, J. Stuart Blackton, Esq.

BY Rev. ALBERT PARKER FITCH,

THE sentimental lodging of spir-

hand The appalling thing
about the movie show is the vicious
and false manner in which it por-
trays its characters. 1T is M
MORAL BECAUSE 1T IS NOT
TRUE TO LIFE.
We read stories where burglars
are heroes. These stories deal with
life as life is not, and it is the same
way with the Immoral play. How
do we find out play is immoral?
We Judge it not by the content, but
by the manner of dealing with the
story. Every play that deals with
things as they appear in actual life,
though from the point. Of view Of
good taste it outrages every canon,
is a moral play.
MAN is PRONE TO BLINK. AT The
FACTS OF LIFE AND
DEATH, AND TOO MANY At

MENTALIZE THE GRAVE THINGS

THINKERS

The discussion through newspapers
and periodicals of the political ques-
tions OF the day and particularly OF
the public men of the day is bearing
frnit. The people. are thinking. Ac-
cording to the big. eastern papers the
voters reflect and then vote instead of
voting and then rejecting as seemed
once to be the case.
The result of increased publicity
and frank discussions has done away
TO very marked degree with the for
mer scheme of voting the ticket
straight. The cross at the head OF. the
ticket is unpopular. There is hardly
left now except among the older gen

. selves on being regular that they will
vote their party ticket straight re-

GRAFTON refuse to be SO strongly par
tisan as to accept primary nomina-
lions at their face value. Il
No political PARTY is responsible. and
no political party can be held re-
sponsible for the men who MAKE up
the tickets which are presented to- vo-
tiers as Republican, Democratic So
ciaiist. Progressive, or Prohibition.
These tickets come into being with
out the official sanction or the official

the point where men count more than

REFORMERS AGAIN

The compeXity Of human opinion sur
passes understanding. In one parish the
scales of justice are delicately balanced by
sending an eight-year-old boy to the peni-
Tertiary for stealing ten cents worth of
cheese-or some such trihe. In another
parish the prison reformers are storming
the prisons demanding that criminals be
nourished with the mix of human kindness.
1t is hard to decide which of the two view
points is the more ridiculous the rigid en-
forcement OF the law to the point of alb
Isurdity, or the tempering of punishment to
the point Of making it ineffective 1t is
hard to understand what motives could in
duce Judge and jury to send an eight
year-old child to the penitentiary for a
trifling offense; it is equally as hard to
understand why bunch of sane people
would try TO convert the places Of punish
ment into abodes of comfort and ease.
There must be something radically wrong
in our system. The severity of the punish
ment inflicted on child, on onehand, and
the maudlin sympathy extended real Grim
inals, on the other hand, evidence an incon-
sistency for which there should &c some
remedy. The system that subjects petty
offenders to the same drastic punishment
that is meted out to murderers and other
dangerous criminals is all wrong. Like
wise is the system that furnishes bed of
roses for the desperate criminal and which
would make the prison an attractive place
for the worst type of offenders. Put in
effect the views of one class and our jails
would be filled with children and petty Of
tenders. Take the other view ant the
prisons would be made so luxurious and
punishment so reduced that these institu-
tons would hold out no terriers to the most
dangerous human derelicts. There must be
some happy medium between these diver
gent views, but the lawmakers seem slow
in discovering it.

Of order to suggest to local authorities that
they get busy and prepare for the course Of
treatment that will commence next year.
That assessments Cor state purposes
will be increased there Can be no doubt;
that new schedules will be prepared that
will indirectly increase valuations is equally
certain. Theoretically we expect to reduce
our rates Of taxation in proportion to the
increase. in valuation; practically we will
continue the rates while the valuations are
being increased The local taxing bodies
prepare their budgets and levy taxes before

ment basis will the taxes OF 1917 be levied?
The time is now ripe to uncover the system
of equalization and to name the ''neW
sources" of revenue in order that police
juries levee boards and other taxing bodies
may not fix the rate 50 high as to yield
more revenue than is needed. But it occurs
