An Unwelcome Ambassador"

It may be that will have to do with "Ambas sador" Martens what the Mexicans did with Consular Agent Jenkins-put him into jail. But if so. will jail this soviet representative ridiculous charge. Perhaps better thing to do with him would be to send him out of the country and so range his itinerary that he would land at Sebastopol Kiev another of the southern ports of Russia.
 His negotiations here diplomatic representa- tive have not been very successful. He has been unable even to bring himself into personal contact wit hany attache of state department. We have not recognized his existence. If he would go to southern Russia it would be different. He would doubt be warmly received by General Denekine and no doubt a salute would be fired soon after his arrival.
 Martens came to this country for good pur- pose. There could not have been a hope that he would accomplish anything fin the way of securing a recognition of the soviet government. He could have had other purpose in coming here than to direct the spread of sovetism and to encourage the foolish and criminal classes already doing what the government strenuousy engaged in suppressing

PLENTY OF WHITE COAL

The department of the interior advises the wedding of the stream and the mine, the white coal with the black"
 What, heard of white coal?
 Why for long years the imaginative French have called 1t white coal"-the tumbling water which is converted into many forms; and much cleaner, handler kind of coal it is than it's black brother.
 We are using coal at enormous cost, robbing posterity drive steam plants, lighting plants, for power of all kinds and at the time barely touch upon the nations wonderful waterpower resources.
 The theoretical maximum quantity of water power that produced in the United States has recently been estimated by Dr. SteinmetZ, who call culates that if every stream could be fully utilized throughout it's length all seasons, the power ob tained would be 230,0o0,OOo kilowats (S200Oo00o horsepower). It is clear, the department of in terior that only fraction of this absolute maximum be made available.
 The geological survey estimates that the water power in this country that is available for ultimate development amounts to 54OOOOO0 continuous horse power. Of this have developed less than 5,000,000 horsepower. Available waterpower would, if de- veloped furnish motive power for every wheel that turns in America. Waterpower (now wasted) could be made to pull every train drive every car run every industrial plant Much of it could be verted into homes It would light our rooms and streets.
 And yet go on laboriously digging coal out of the bowels of the earth and suffer periodical at tacks of shortages along with chronic case of high coal prices.

A Yaeul Deportation

small dispatch fren Nesales yesterday morn- ing stating that two hundred Yaaui women and children captured by Mexican troops in recent fight ing were at Hernosiio awaiting deportation to is- lands off the coast of sinaoa recalls an earlier de- portatioa of Yaqu!s
 Several hundred Yaqui warriors, women and children were taken from Gayamas some years ago. Their destination was said to be point on the coast of one Of the southernmcst states of the re- public. No account was obtained Of their land- ing anywhere. There were rumors though, that they were thrown into the ocean after the vessel passed out of the bay of Guaymas and Americans who were there at the time had very little doubt that that was their fate
 Hundreds of captured Yaquis previous to that time had been shot Hermosillo An Arizonan who was there saw morning a small band of prisoners brought in by Mexican soldiers They were taken before the officer in command at Hermosillo He merely glanced at them waved them away and few minutes later the rattle of musketry informed the Arizonian what had happened
 The war between the Yaquis and the Mexicans conflict as can be conceived by those who do not believe in perpetual motion. The cruelty on both sides has been great. The conduct of the Mexicans has been in strong to that of the Tinted states in dealing with Indians. Though our government has been accused of careIessness or in justice nQ accusation of cruelty has ever been brought against it.

suqoestions to Crime

A correspondent writes the subject Of the facilities which are publicly offered in Phoenix to crime, among them the display in show wlnoows or deadly weapons. inviting the evil-minded to crime In cases, perhaps these displays offer the first suggestion to crime Suggestions are often subtle Many murder may be traced back to a very little and very unimportant event.
 The incidents leading to murder have left a state of balance. A has no intention of com hitting murder then comes the slight breath of air disturb the balance.
 Deadly weapons not usually bought for crim- inal purposes One may think he needs pistol for protection of himself his family his property It is. he thinks. handy thing to have about the house The chances are that 1t will remain undis- charged month after month. At last it's where abous will be forgotten and some night when the householder is aroused by hearing armed burglar at a door window he will have forgotten where look for the family protector. But the burglar knows where HIS revolver is and he has made up his mind just what he will do with it in certain contingency.
 The law abiding man is always at a disadvantage against a burglar or a footpad. He is ready while the lawless man has his weapon in readiness and has figured what his next will be.
 We would not of course. advocate a suppression of the manufacture and sale of revolvers other weapons which may be used Tor defenSVe or uSetul purposes but we would have law like that of states which regulates the sale of deadly weapons. It is required that every sale shall be registered and the registry list Is open inspection. Before purchase pistol he must secure written permis- sion from designated authority for that purpose and that permission will be the of the deal sell the holder a revolver.
 It Is presumed by the law that such permission will be given only to reputable and well known citizens and that before it Is given the authority giving it will have ascertained why the purchase of the pistol is desired Such law and another one very one. but seldom properly en- forced-for the punishment of those carrying con- cealed weapons would greatly restrict the practice of -gun-totng." But the administration of this law is generally farce It is only by accident that the gun-toter is discovered and then he is let off with miserable little fine at an If he has com mitted other offense the arrest for which led to the discovery of his gun that discovery is often ignored entirely.
 We have known of man arrested for driving an automobile while in intoxicated condition A gun was found him. He punished for the first offense and nothing done about the latter and the greater one.
 But diverted from the subject of show window displays and the suggestions they offer to crime We have worse things offered for sale fin show windows than revolvers-'brass knucks" for instance. This is weapon of which no legitimate use can possibly be made. One might as well offer burglar tools for sale.

Where The People
 May Have a Hearing
The Four Aces Again.

To the Editor of The Republican:
 The monthly average of murder shows no abatement despite the ear nest efforts of our worthy sheriff and the vigilant police. A few weeks since woman was found dead, wicked looking revolver of the type usually displayed in the windows of loan sharks and pawnbrokers lay near. The eleven bottles of whisky bore mute testimony to the activity of the boot legger.
 There is a window of at least one place on Washington street where inn plements of murder are displayed in manner that would have met the approval of Jesse James or Rube Bur rows.
 The recent timely articles of women visitors being insulted in public places in our fair and friendly city indicate that the cadet" and the masquereau are still abroad in the land. Cheap pawnbrokers. mean petty profiteers in the wages of sin are thus pictured in Shakespeare:
 Thy occupation is such that the lowest fiends in hell would not change places with thee.'
 The four aces of infamy, the loan shark, the profiteer in shame, the bootlegger and the seller of worthless securities should be so esteemed today EDGAR KENNISON.

What's the Use7

About the only thing that would be settled py an early decision by the United States supreme court relative to war time prohibition and the character of s75 beer would be determination whether there ia to be a wet or dry Christmas. No doubt that Is r.Rarded as a very important matter in those parts of the country where it has not been previously and locally settled 1t has been in Arizona. But we do not think that it vital anywhere as to warrant the displacement of pending and older matters of far greater importance. the supreme court calendar
 If there is great principle at stake, let 1t be settled but there need be hurry about it. Princi- pss are nearly always settled right the end Those who hold to them then said to be vindicated; that ought to be enough If those who think that the wartime prohibition act is now invalid should find at any time even after January IS next, that they were right they will be in a position to say T told you so" They would have the further sats- faction of feeling in their pockets, money which wet Christmas would have extracted.
 The supreme court should not be unduy hur- red for it has before it in connection with this a question far more puzzling than the uncertain status of the wartime prohibition act That is, "Is 27S beer an intoxicant?" That is not question of law but of fact and doubt very much whether the court of last resort it is constituted, is competent to answer 1t. The consideration of this question requires experience and practice in the art of potation that do not think any of the members of the court have enjoyed
 Even experienced beer drinkers find themselves 1oundering when this question is propounded. Even hose who have conducted tests claim to have been left fin a state of indecison. How then, is court, dependent wholly upon hearsay. and exposed to the arguments of lawyers to lxnow7
 It has before it the agreed upon fact that what siIl intoxcate will not feaze another. There are those who when beer in it's pristine { per cent glory, claimed that "one could not get

WORLDS WISDOM INCREASES

Sir Isace Newton apple fall and pon- dered the fact that it went down instead of up or sideways. His law of gravity became a funda- mental of science.
 Dr. Albert Einstein of Berlin saw workman fall bish. He talked with the man. who evidently had remarkable mind for he observed that in falling he did not feel the pull of gravity it is commonly supposed to operate.
 Now Dr. Enstein's new theory or relativity" has accepted by the Royal Society London as a demonstrated truth.
 What is the theory?
 It is said that there are not more than 12 men in the world capable of comprehendng all of it's phases It is really modification of the rules worked out by Newton.
 One of its concepts is the rejection of the ideas of absolute time and space Beyond the furthermost star is-nothingnessi
 Dr. Einstein and his fellow scientists do not sug- gest that the hypothesis will affect human life in the slightest particular The hungry mind of man has simply reached out ttlo into the dense vast of the unknowable. Again, the finite and fallible in telect of earths wsest animal has added bit to it's meagre stock of lore.
 A million years hence that stock will be some- what increased but in relation to what will remain unknown the total of all wisdom finally will remain as q tiny flicker in universe of dark.
