Speed of Bullets,

The rate of fall of the bullet from the line of projection is fixed by the laws of gravity, hence the more rap idly the bullet is made to pass from the rifle to the target the tlatter will be this curve or trajectory" the less accurate the estimation of distance re- qufred and the less the chances of error through an inaccurate estimate of distance.
 The normal velocities of our sport ing rifles. in black powder days, were about 1900 feet per second The first of the small bore, high power, smoke less variety raised this to 2O00 f. S. for bullets of military length and 2,200 for shorter sporting bullets. Now it has gone up to 3,100 f. S. The burn ing questions asked again and again by the rificman are, Where will we stopT" twill the 4,OO0 f. S. bullet come next?'

An Optimist's Essay.

A pessimist is son of the man who didn't believe there was any such thing as electricity.
 He is an offspring of the man who was sure that the horseless carriage would never come, and a nephew of the man who was willing to bet money that men would never fly.
 A pessimist is a direct descendant of the man who was sure that wireless telegraphy was a fools dream and a submarine merely the creation of a fic, tion writer's brain.
 The pessimist's ancestory scoffed at the telephone, the typesetting machine, the twenty story building, anaesthetics and every forward step the optimists have taken for the betterment of hu- man life
 If the pessimists of the past had been right men would still be living in caves and trying to get their meals with clubs and flint arrows. And evi- dently tkey died without publicly con- fessing their mistakes. for their pessf mistic children continue to prophecy dismally that everything that is surely going to be cannot possibly come to pass. They seem to be born with the habit and cannot get over it.-Detroit Free Press.

Audubon and His Hair,

Audubon, the great naturalist, early in his career wore his hair very long. He wrote in his diary one day: 'I wear my hair as long as usual. I believe it does as much for me as my paint iGgs" However, in 1927 his friends succeeded in persuading him to get his hair cut according to the prevailing fashion. On March 19 of that year he wrote in his diary: This day my hair sacrificed and the will of God usurped by the wishes of man. As the barber clipped my locks rapidly it re- minded me of the horrible times of the French revolution when the same op- eration was performed upon all the victims murdered by the guillotine. My heart sank low" Further to express his grief, the margin of the page on which this entry was made he painted black about three-quarters of an inch 1eep all around.

Since the beginning of the year the New York Stock Exchange has com pelled the suspension of more than 250 firms alleged to be engaged in broker age business. In many cases there were indictments and convictions. In one case it was found that the stock quotation ticker had supplied figures to POO houses, an alleged violation of contract, as the ticker company agrees that the daily quotations supplied by the exchange shall be delivered by wire only to such persons and firms as the exchange shall approve. This matter of exclusive use has reached the courts, and the outcome will prob ably be a decision as to the right to control stock quotations.

We donated $50 toward the Tucson
to-PhOeniX road race, and after Or.
Boido got the $50 i wrote him for par
ticulars concerning the track race, as
a bunch of us wanted to go over He
has never answered the letter. We viii
certainly bear this in mind when he
calls on us for another donation.
We organized this club for the pur-
pose Of getting our Tucson riders to-
eether and we have a nice club and
enough members to pull off a good race
and when we allow three or four pro-
fessionals with fast factory machines
to enter, it discourages the riders who
own slow machines and discourages
racing here instead of encouraging it.
We had nine entrants Sunday, and
if the Phoenix fellows would have been
allowed to ride, the Tucson boys would
not have entered. When we want fast
factory machines in our races We will
write a letter to these professionals
and invite them but if they come to
town on their own hook, they will have
to take what they can get.-and that

ABUNDANCE OF FRESH FACTS

Room Enough in CHICAGO

The Los Angeles Times protests against the hold
ing of the progressive and the republican national
conventions in the city at the same time No
good can come of that arrangement thinks the Times
The republican convention must be left unhampered
and unshackled, nominate its candidates and form
uIate its platform. 1t is mpracticable declares the
Times, which thereupon politely, but the less
firmly requests the progressves to move out of the
way and get off of the earth until the republican
convention shall have been held. Then the progress
sives will be given opportunity and ratify
the action of that convention.
Chicago is a large city, WELL known convention
city; conventions among its numerous specialtes
it accommodate two or more national conven
TONS at one time Besides there purpose on the
part of the progressives to shackle, hamper or re-
strain or otherwise harass the republican conven-
ton. The progressves will have business of their
own about that time they could not if they would
capture the republican convention even browbeat
1t by their presence into doing something if would
not do as a free moral or immoral agent.
The Times expresses desire that the two parties
get together, not by assimilation mutual agree
ment, but by the simple process of the progressves
falling in behind the republicans and following
whittier they may lead. 1t is the purpose of the
progressves to do that but rather their purpose
to follow the which they set out four years

Where the People
May Have Hearing
a WORE IN REPLY

TUCSON, Ariz., Jan. II. 1916.
Editor Arizona Republican, Phoenix,
Arizona:
Dear Sir-l notice an article in The
Republican of January 18th regarding
Crandall and Dodd's trip to Tucson.
We certainly do not agree with you as
to their getting a dirty deal. When
our race was first talked of it was
unanimously decided by the members
of the club to have a closed event, as
none of our riders possessed factory
machines Chat is, machines owned and
kept up by the factory, and for us to
take our stock machines and compete
against machines that didn't have any
stock parts was not giving the Tucson
riders a square deal. If we had a
bunch of fast machines / don't think
the Phoenix riders would be so anxious
to come over and cop the easy money.
| We have plenty of riders here to pull
off good race without any assistance
from Phoenix, and We have allowed
Phoenix riders to walk off with our
/ prize money every race we ever had,
with the exception of last Sunday. We
are greatly pleased with the success of
the last race and intend to have many
more closed events. AS early as De-
cember 1st | notified Herbert Worces-
ter that the race would be a closed
event and Bob Orput told me that
! Worcester had notified the Phoenix
bunch that it was closed and that they
said they would go down and either
take the money or crum the race. Well.
they came down, but they did not do
either. | do not feel that we are in
any way under any obligations to
Phoenix. Tucson put up the purse for
the race and it was perfectly right to
keep the money in Tucson The don
ors are greatly pleased that we did
keep it here.
Phoenix has no right to criticize
Tucson. We have donated to all the
Phoenix races and received absolutely
nothing in return, and Phoenix has
never yet contributed anything toward
our races, only Phoenix riders come
over here with fast factory machines
and ride against bunch of slow stock
machines and of course win the money
but they could not possibly win any
glory or honor to win under such cir
cumstances. 1t is the same principle
of Barney Oldfield with fast auto
racing against an every day machine

CARNEGIE CHOOSES HIS EpI1ApH

Andrew Carnegie is the most human of all the
multi -mllionaires, after all. He is canny and all
tha but he is handed, too and las good deal
of homely Scotch philosophy in his makeup.
For example, he has just selected the epitaph that
Is to grace his tombstone. 1t Isl That damned

When Carnegie iron master. and the
great strike of 1892 came to his steel mills Nc
Luckie, the burgess of Homestead had run away
to escape arrest Some years later Carnegie learned
that McLuckie was in want in Mexico He sent
man there with money to help him and said to the
messenger: Don't let McI.uckie know who it's from
he rnghtnt take it
After McLuckie had been lifted to his feet the
messenger said to him: DO you know whose money
l helped you WITH" He said he had idea Well
it Mr.. Carnegie's" McLuckie shut eye, pom
dered moment and said earnestly: That was
damned white Of Andy and Andy cherished tho

ago and it happen that the republicans have learned
anything by years and experience and chance to in
the same direction republicans and progressves may
travel a road that is open all, public thorough
fare In such it would seem proper for the
sake of company that they both start from the
point the time.
But if it happen that the republicans intend to
the journey which they set out in 1912

Mr.. Blaine, the +. A. NJ. commissioner
OF Phoenix talked the matter over with
me thoroughly and said the Phoenix
bunch had no grounds to be sore. We
certainly have good grounds to be sore
for a stunt that Jack DoddS pulled off
here Sunday. Our entry blanks read
the rider must use one machine. one
of the machines went bad three miles
out and Dodds tried to get this rider
to go on to Oracle on his machine and
change machines again coming back
and finish on original machine. You
talk of a dirty deal, this we consider

seemed perfectly satisfied. | am eX-
