Denies Arms Makers Started
Preparedness Agitation.
FOR FEDERAL OWNERSHIP
Advocates That the Government, as
Far as Possible, Manufacture Its
Own Weapons and Ammunition, or
at Any Rate Control Prices.

Milwaukee, Feb. 1.-President VIII
son threw down the gauntlet TO APP
ponents of national preparedness who
have declared that the movement
sprang from the desire Of munitions
and armament manufacturers to make
money.
There are some things that are be-
ing said that ! hope you will not be-
lieve." the president declared. 1T Is
being said. among other things, that
this agitation for preparedness for ma
tional defense chiefly from those
who are interested In supplying the
government with the munitions of war
and from those who are interested in
supplying the government with their
armament.
Gentlemen, do not allow yourselves
to be misled by statements of that
sort. Anything that the government
does somebody is going to make o
ely out of; but the impulse for this
thing does not come from those quar-
tiers. The impulse comes from men
d~isinterested, men who know the actu-
al circumstances of the country, and
who know that these things are i'm
mediately necessary,
Urges Federal Ownership.
II, for my part, all along have ad-
vocated. and always shall advocate
that the government as far as posi-
BILE shall manufacture these things for
itself. that IL at any rate may control
the prices at which these articles will
be sold to the government. III il is nee
essary to protect ourselves against
those who would make money out of
the necessities of the nation there are
adequate means of defending our
selves, and we will use these means.
But / do not believe the impulse
m from those quarters. ! do not
believe that in those quarters there Is
patriotism lacking any more than
In other quarters"

livered from the ea platform of his

hour before he reached this city.

SUPPORT AMENDMENT 100.

The only way to properly safeguard

voting in favor of the amendment to

last state legislature, which can be
found on the ballot as No. 100 and

Since statehood there has been a
mass of iIl-advised legislation which
has been passed by the people and
afterwards declared unconstitutional
by the courts. Under cur present
Law a minority vote canpass an init
iative measure, while our constltu-
Hy vote of all members elected to

The present system permits certain
interests, if they feel so disposed, to
secure the necessary signatures to
initiate measure by paying the Cir
culators so much per name. Then by
expending large sum ofmoney it is
easy for the big interests Of the state
to secure a majority of all those
voting upon the particular measure
they want to become a law. The
interests will see that their own kind
votes in favor of the law, while those
who do not understand or who have
no interest in the measure. do not
vote either way.
Thus it is easy to secure the neces-
sary votes to put it over, even
though only a small percentage of the
vortes vote upon the proposed law.
The amendment as recommended by
the last legislature provides that in
order to pass an initiative measure
it will be necessary to secure a
MAJORITY OF ALL VOTES CAST

If this measure becomes law the
people hereafter will take more in

uation OF northern Yuma county is
around $4,000,000, and it is conf
IDENTIFY believed that in another year
the valuation will be increased an
other million dollars.
The rapid strides being made in
this portion OF the county is attract
ing widespread attention, especially
in mining circles. Many residents OF
northern Yuma county are beginning
to have strong hopes Of forming a
new county before long. Under the
county division law a new county
may be formed whenever the pro
posed segregated part has an assess
ed valuation of at least $4,000, 600,
and electors to the number Of not
less than 1000.
The rapid development Of the
mineral resources OF this part OF the
county which is now taking place
indicates that in another year nor
theln Yuma county will be in posi-
tion to form new county all by

The State Herald, that dyed-in-the

wakes indignant because Ashurst and
Hayden are not supporting Governor
Hunt for third term, going so far
as to say that Hayden is knitting the
governor wherever and whenever he
can. If such is the case why does
the Herald feel soangry? Appears to
us that it would mean more votes foe
Tom Campbell, and that's what the

Where could the survey be, now!
was the question recurring always to
Helen's mind. Toward the close. Of
the dinner, Seagrue. rising, unlocked
his desk for a flask of Chartreuse.
There, lying in the corner exactly
where she had seen it, Helen again be-
held the survey, blue print beside
it. Seagrue was pawky enough to
close and lock the desk after he had
taken the flask out How, she asked
herself, was she t. get that desk open
again?
Seagrue dismissed his serving man,
and this did not allay Helen's uneasi-
to be left alone a minute with him
now; things were getting too compli-
Gated But could she in some way
get into the desk?
Rising, she said she would clear the
table little. Taking hold OF the flask
he had just taken from the desk and
holding out her hand with smile she
asked him fol- his keys. Seasrue was in
no position to i~fuse so intimate re-
quest With an air of camaraderie he
handed them over and Helen pushed
back the cover of the desk. But as
she did so Seagrue threw his arms
around her. She struggled indignant
ly, but could not get away For a mo-
ment there was fierce struggle.
Then with superhuman effort she
tore herself free, caught up the first
thing she could lay her hand ont
happened to be a bronze match tray
and struck Seagruc across the fore
head.
He went completely over, leaving
Helen horror-stricken at what she had
done. She listened. Outside she
heard no sound. Selling the blue
print that lay under her hand. she
gained the door and ran out just as
Seagrue regained his feet. She had
resolved to flag the Limited. Hardly
touching the earth, she dashed to the
station, hurried to the key and tele-
graphed Rhinelander:
Have blue print OF survey. Will
be on Limited. HELEN"
1t was not too soon. Through the
window she saw Scagrue rushing down
the platform. She slammed the office
door shut, and locked it. Seagrue
