BUSY SESSION OF
 THE LEGISLATURE
lContinued from Page D

Continued from Page D tion of the adjutant general with the governor will not be made more se- cure by legislation that is proposed. In fact, it is expected that the laws bearing upon the adjutant general and the state militia will be so amended as to cause consternation in the office of the adjutant general.
 More War Legislation.
 It is also understood that considera- ble of the war legislation enacted at the special session will be reconsider ed and there will be other war legis- lation, necessary through peace and demobilization.
 As stated at the outset, it promises to be a busy session.
 The senate after a brief session in which it was partially organized by the election of A. A. Johns, president, F. L. Sweeting of Greenlee county, as secretary, Ed. O'Hagan of Pinal, as sergeant at arms, and Rev. Bertram Cocks, chaplain. The house went a little farther. After electing A. C.. Peterson of Graham speaker, and Sam P. Bradner, chief clerk, it appointed patronage committee which in a short afternoon session submitted a report containing the names of dog. en or more attaches. The attaches, or those of them present, were sworn in.
 Though the election of President Johns was conceded days before the opening session, the caucus of the senate democrats was much more pro- longed than that of the house, chief ly over the office of secretary. Only two candidates had been announced, F. J. Farley of Prescott and H. A. Davis of Phoenix. The election Qf Mir. Johns initiated against Far ley, and the record of Maricopa in the late election was not conducive to the success of Mir. Davis. The caucus agreed finally upon L. F.. Sweating of Clifton. MT. Sweating was chief clerk of the house of the second legislature and incurred the enmity of the radical democratic members.
 At midnight Sunday, three-cor.. nered fight for the speakership of the house was in progress between A. c. Peterson of Graham, T. P. How ard of Globe, and William Delbridgc of Bisbee. But early in the morning, the differences of the factions were adjusted and an agreement was reached on Peterson, so that he be- came the unanimous choice Of the caucus. No other name was mention ed. Likewise the choice of Sam r. Bradner for chief clerk of the house was made without division. The eau GUS also agreed upon A. A. Trippell for assistant chief clerk. Mir. Trippell was assistant secretary of the senate in the third.

Every Inch American

WASHINGTON, Jan. 16.-The re publican publicity association, through its president, Hon. Jonathan Bourne, Jr., today gave out the following statement from its Washington head quarters:
 "The passing of Col. Roosevelt leaves void m the life of the na- tion that cannot be filled. His per- sonality was unique, his direct method of obtaining results may be said to be characteristic of no other of his time, and his originality of thought and action stamped him as a man quite apart from his fellows. It is not too much to say that no citizen of the United States since the time of Lincoln has left his impression upon the country as has Roosevelt. He was typically American. His advoca- cy of what he himself termed "the strenuous life," and his practical ap- plication of that mode of living to himself, made him the idol of the mil lions of American who believe that the application of enthusiasm and con fidence will overcome most obstacles.
 "Col. Roosevelt gloried in his cit izenship. He not only offered his best abilities to the civil life of the Republic, but he was always at the front when danger threatened. In the Spanish war none was more energetic than he in organizing and leading the men who brought about early victory in Cuba. He clearly discerned the danger to our country if Germany was successful in her contest with the allies, and urged that the United States throw the weight of her power into the balance long before we actu- ally entered the conflict. Who can say that America and the world would not have profited had his ad- vice been followed?
 "When war with German was actu- ally upon us Col. Roosevelt was among the first to offer his services to his country. He wanted no desk at Wash ington, but begged to be assigned to our combat forces overseas. Not only did he tender his own life to his coun-

in on me Dec. 24th, and have only been out of the house four times since. Otherwise 1 would go to Flagstaff to attend the funeral. The Camp Verde and Jerome telephone. wire is out of commission and the telegrams were 56 hours old when they arrived, at Camp Verde. It takes letter 4 days and nights close connection to get letter to Jerome or Clarkdale or Cottonwood, and an answer, that is if the party addressed happens to be at the post office when the mail arrives and be- fore it departs. A connecting link of 6 miles between Aultman and Corn vile would give three mails a week instead of via Prescott, Jerome Juno tion and Cedar Glade or Jerome, a ride of over 100 miles.
 Very truly and sincerely,
 JOHN HANCE.

try but he organized an entire brig ade of men outside of draft age eager to follow him into the thick of the fight. The fact that his proffer was not accepted by those in power at Washington does not detract in the least degree from the patriotism and sacrifice that inspired him in the mak- ing it.
 But although unable to go to Flu rope himself Col. Roosevelt was quick to give his enthusiastic assent to his four sons engaging in the fight. One of them met tragic death at the hands of the enemy, and the others have re- ceived wounds that testify to their personal suffering. His grief over their sufferings was intensified by the thought that he was not permitted to share their dangers. Although Col. Roosevelt did not don uniform it is hardly too much to say that he is a victim of the war. No citizen of the country has been more active than he in urging every man to do do his bit for victory. Criticised by some for calling the administration to task for manifest failures, it must be admitted that his efforts and those of his friends have been productive of much good through the reforms in our military organization that were se- cured. His devotion to war work en- tailed exertions on his part that un- doubtedly hastened his death, and it may be justly said of him that he gave his life for his county as truly as if he had died on the battlefield.
 "Col. Roosevelt made strong friends. He likewise incurred violent enmities. But every antagonist must concede that Mr. Roosevelt was a worthy op- ponent. He never resorted to unfair means to discomfit his adversary. Treachery was unknown to him, and his fights were won by straight blows from the shoulder. As an example of virile American manhood the memory of Theodore Roosevelt will live in the minds of all, to be emulated by those of our citizens who wish to preserve the United States from mental and physical decadence."

FOOD ADMINISTRATION H,
 HELPS THE RED CROSS

PHOENIX, Jan. 16.-Contribu- tions to the Red Cross and other war charities aggregating $31S4.SO have been made to date through the oper- ation of the enforcement division of the food administration in Arizona, according to an announcement made today at state headquarters.
 Of this amount$2620 was in cash, S525 in bakery products and the bal ance consisted of 398 pounds of sugar. These donations were made from time to time by concerns and individuals who had violated the food regulations and were allowed to take this means of demonstrating their loyalty and of proving good faith in their promise to follow out instructions in the fu- ture.
 Though practically all of the former restrictions in the handling of food have been removed the enforcement work is being continued as check against profiteering and all rules per- taining to margins of profits are still being retained.
 Just now the work of the enforce ment division is being centered in an investigation of meat prices at Globe and Miami. Eight other towns of the state have effected a reduction in meat prices to the consumer amount ing to from three to five cents a pound, and it is aimed to establish a similar reduction in the Globe copper district, or at any rate cut down the margins of profit with the aim of giving the producer, the dealer and the consumer square deal.

PREDICTION MADE BY PREMIER
LLOYD GEORGE IN AN
INTERVIEW.
NEGOTIATIONS NOT AT "0UTS"
Technical Experts Have Encountered
Difficulties over ReparatIon, De-
clares British Premier - Public
Should Suspend Judgment.

Paris. - The preliminary peace
treaty will be ready by Easter and the
Germans will be asked to come and
sign it at the end OF April or the be.
ginning OF May, Premier Lloyd George,
OF Great Britain, declared in an inter
view with Stephane Lausanne, editor
Of the Matin.
In answer to a remark by NJ. Lau-
zanne that what troubled public opin-
ion was not SO much the delay as the
secrecy in which the peace negotia-
tons were conducted and the fear
that there was some divergence Of
opinion, the British premier said:
Il affirm absolutely that there Ia no
divergence among the negotiators.
They are often confronted with tech
nical difficulties which can only be
settled after close study. Take the
question of reparations. In substance
the allies have one common principle,
which ! set forth thus: Germany
must pay up to the last farthing OF
her power
NoS All Easy taoNs
"But 1t Is sufficient to draw up a
bill and hand 1t to the enemy? Must
we not require guarantees and must
we not study the terms, methods and
forms OF delayed payments? Must We
no be able to say to u adversary
when he pleads in~adequacy Of re.
sources: Yes, you can go as far as
that, and you must do this, and you
must do THAR In a word, shall we
simply present a bill or collect all the
money possible? Well, that is where
the work comes in, slow and difficult
work, complicated by the fact that
technical experts OF the highest capa-
bilities and great experience are not
in agreement among themselves eth
81 as to the methods OF liquidation or
as TO the assets to be realized.
mo, there Is no divergence among
the negotiators-but, also, there are
inevitable one among the experts,
often among those from the same
country. Who is to decide between
them II not the n%egotiators, and do
you think it a always be done quick
ly?"
