direction Butcher could not have saved the football players and cricketers
 Yet, there is another way of looking at it. We must admit that these athletic sports have made of the English a hardy and tenacious Football hes done much more for England than baseball has done could ever do for country The sport is general Hardly English boy that has not played football thereby increasing his quckness his strength and his fighting spirit. We may presume that prac tically all the British soldiers Waterloo had played football If they had it is doubtful whether they could have held that awful afternoon when Wellington praying for "Blucher Night
 But it is pretty late in the day for to be laying football foundation for military strength We take that foundation it is now and build the military superstructure it. and where tfore is such foundation must build the structure anyhow.
 Experience has taught within the last two months that the American foundation alone is good one. Of the boys in France who have covered them- selves with glory, not in five hundred is college football player Probably not one in fifty has kicked a football. Anyhow, the man who can shoot quickly and accurately is of more consequence than the who is only athlete

The Service of Major La Guardia

Washington dispatch yesterday stated that Gen. eral Crowder had definitely decided the status of Con- gressmen with respect to the draft That they are absolutely and peremptorily exempt by statutes from the draft law and cannot waive their exemption" without resgning when he would become automatical ly subject.
 This announcement comes the heels of the news from New York of the renominaon by the republicans of Fiorella La Guardia of the Fourteenth New York district, and the endorsement of him by the demo- cratic convention though that district in normal times is overwhelmingly democratic. Mir La Guarda was elected two years ago. Soon after this country en- tered the He left congress. He claimed no ex- emption a member but he volunteered for active duty and accepted place in the most dangerous arm of the service He ma ior in the American aviation corps in Italy
 Though his district has not had the benefit of his his vote in congress, it has had the nspira ton of his example patriot and fighter in the cause of liberty The Fourteenth New York district has been highly distinguished and honored by it's rescntative, 5000 miles from the halls of congress.
 It is not supposed that Major La Guardia will return for the campaign There is why he should. It is improbable also that he will sit in the next congress unless it should extend beyond the period of the war. But whether in Washington Italy his constituents will They fur nishing the nation example patriotic devotion.
 The democrats of the Fourteenth district also to be complmented. In declining to nominate a didate against Major La Guardia, they have indeed adjourned politics.

Where the People
 May Have Hearing
The Democratic MuddIe
Phoenix. Ariz.. Sept. 13, 19

1nOenlX, ArlZ., Sept. l5, 15lo. To The Republicans:
 Since the nomination of the Hon. Fred T. Colter as the Democratic can- dldate for governor of Arizona, the question has been raised as to his eii- gibility to hold the office of governor, ne being member of the legislature, tsenator). and was such on March 14, lSlI when the act was passed and ap- proved increasing the salary of the governor from s4000 to $6500 per an mum.
 This act was passed with the emer- gency clause added, to take effect from and after its passage and approved by the governor
 Now Section ,. Article " of the Constitution reads:
 NO member of the legislature dur ing the term for which he shall have been elected, shall be appointed or elected to any civil office of profit un- der thls state, which shall have been created or the emouments of which shall have been increased, during said term"
 If this section of the constitution stood alone there would be strong req son for questioning the eligibility of Senator Colter to this office. but fortu- nately Section r of Article " of the Constitution cures this defect, by de- clarlng the recent act of the legislature unconstitutional, hence null and void. IhlS section reads as follows: The leSlslature shall never grant any extra compensation to any public officer, agent servant, or contractor, after the services shall have been rendered Or the contract entered into, nor shall the compensation of any public officer fe increased or diminished during his term of office
 Cooley, on Constitutional Limita tlons. Fourth Edition. Page 227 says: When statute is adjudged to be iIn- constitutional, it is as if it had never been. Rights cannot be built up under it. contracts which depend upon it iol their consideration are void; it consti tutes protection to no one who acted for having bla the
 under It, and no one can be punished for having refused obedience to it be lore the decision was made And what Is true of an act void in toto is trIe also as to any part of an act which is forced to be unconstitutional, and which consequently. is to be regarded as having never at any time, been pos sessed of any legal force"
 Therefore the act increasing the sal ary or the governor having been passed to take effect during the present term of the governor in direct conflict with the constitutional provision against such procedure, the legislative, act so far as the office of governor is con cerned is null and void, and the salary remains as it was before the act was passed.
 In other words, the legislation e:l- ceeded it's authority and it's act is the same as if it had never passed.
 My candid opinion is that Senator Fred T. Colter.- the nominee of the Democratic party for governor of Ari- zona. is eligible for that office, and that there exists no legal disability which can now or hereafter bar him from holding the office of governor i elected at the November election.
 Yours very truly,
 J. w. CRENSHAW,
 Attorney at Law Phoenix, Arizona.

Football and Mar

The department has listed college football among the mon essential sports" That s it has de- creed that there better ways for the boys fit themselves for fighting than by football playing The time spent had better be put in at military practice The Germans. it is presumed, be put down by touch downs and other incidents and maneuvers which bring victory the gridiron.
 The battle of Waterloo. the Duke of Wellington once said was the football field the cricket grounds and tennis courts of England. That state ment is not supported by the known facts The foot ball players and the crcketers had the battle pretty well lost June afternoon when Butcher arrived with thirty thousand Prussians who did not know anything about football cricket and probably little about tennis.

The Distribution of Powers


 The Hearst newspapers the other day said sati- ricaly:
 Senator Lodge, of Massachusetts, recently announced his peace terms.
 We do not know by what authority Senator Lodge speaks. The people of the United States have but representative who is
 titled to speak for them.
 This is the president of the United States It should be said first that the Hearst newspapers do not like Senator Lodge. MT Hearst for many years has cherished bitter against the Massa- chusetts senator
 The Hearst editorial further says:
 Lodge speaks with no authority. The seri- thing is that the German government will spread Lodges speech all Germany and treat it though Lodge speaking for the American government and the American people"
 Now, Senator Lodge did not announce any peace at all He prescribed only the of action the allies should pursue to bring about peace. He laid down nothing at all for Germany to do In MT. Lodges plan Germany to have nothing say about it. Germany to have only what the allies could agree among themselves; to allow it. If the Germans could derive any comfort from, build up any hope what MT. Lodge said they a very imaginative people.
 The president has announced the war aims of the
  variously. A statement of aims may be regard ed as a statement of peace terms.
 We come now to the really interesting question of authority raised by the Hearst editorial We would gather from that that the power of the president is supreme, absolute that of the kaiser that of the In fact, it would be greater for powers of the kaiser subject slight restrictions.
 The Hearst editorial forgets the constitutional limitations that have been placed upon the powers of the president. There is that take the nation into that bring it out of war. In the matters of and peace there is no one that can speak for the people Senator Lodge cannot do it. and the president of the United States cannot do it.
 We went into the with the consent of con gress. and may say with the very eager consent of the republican members of congress. Many of the democratic members gave reluctant consent and some of their leaders withheld their consent. Months and years before Senator Lodge perceived and pointed the nevitabity of war.
 Senator Lodge and the branch of the government he represents will have much to say about the of ending the as the president will have We can have peace only with the consent of two thirds of the senate. As member of that body which will have much to say about peace and of which he is recognized as fairly representative we think he is entitled to speak It the peo- pie he spoke and it was not fer the senate, but for himself a representative of the senate
 No inhabitant of Germany with sense enough to have influence in that country will misunderstood the senator's position We think that Americans generally have approved the senator's peace terms if Mir Hearst wants to call his remarks statement of peace terms. Of course the pacfists and pro Ger mans do not approve them and in many sections of the country MT. Hearst is regarded as pro German and his papers being widely punished for pro- Germanism, real suspected.
