nous charge agairst the Spanish in
fanfry at San Juan hill. q charge that
made Col. Roosevelt popular idol
and his men national heroes.
When the Spanish-American war
was over Col. Roosevelt was elected
governor OF New York In that ca.
pacity he made wonderful record. in
spite of opposition from the machine
politicians. He incurred the hostility
OF the large corporate interests OF the
state BY approving bill for the taxa
;ion of corporation franchises. but Sc
cured the enactment of his measure
into law, He desired TO be governor
Of New York for a second term. but
finally agreed to accept the Repub-
lican domination for the vice presi-
dency on the ticket with William Nc
Kinley- In the campaign that fol.
lowed Col. Roosevelt took Al important
part. He delivered nearly 100 speeches
IN various parts OF tho country and
contributed largely TO the success of
the ticket.
Six months after his Inauguration as
vice president Col. Roosevelt became
prssident Of the United StAtes through
the assassination Of william AcKin,
ley. He was - years of age whom
this great honor came to him. the
youngest man that ever held the presi-
DENTAL office. President Roosevelt
continued tho policies OF his prede-
cessor for the regulation OF trusts. for
commercial reciprocity with other
countries and for the government of
the Philippine Islands. SO striking
was Col Rooseve,t's personality and
so tremendous his influence that his
character was made the chief issue in
the national campaign OF 1904. Col.
Roosevelt said frankly that he wanted
TO be elected to serve fill term He
was nominated by the Republican con-
vention by reclamation and his cleo
tion was a foregone conclusion. He
defeated Judge Alton B. Parker. the
Democratic candidate, by majority
of 100000 votes and received $50
electoral votes to 1i0 for Judge
Parker.
Col. Roosevelt's administration as
President was characterized by some
of the enactments OF the most far
reaching legislation In tho history of
Congress, II is impossible for The
Daily Record to mention 1t in detail In
this connection. and must content
Itself with the statement that during
his term of Office the foreign relations
of the government presented many
complex and xnotty problems. all of
which found satisfactory solution
at the Presidents hands. BY far the
most important event OF President
Roosevelt's administration was pre-
pairing tho why for the construction
|of the Panama canal Tho matter
hid been debated and discussed by his
predecessors. but none OF them had
tho courage to undertake the proposi-
tion, tho most momertous for the
world IN modern times, Tho Hay

4. |. C0. MANAGER FLIES ID SAN
 F. DIEGO
Norman Carmichael Enabled to Exc. cute Mining Deal Through I Hour. 4s Minute Air Flight.
Clos Angeles Examiner)

(Los Angeles Examiner) How fast can you get me to San Diego?"
 Abruptly Norman Carmichael, veal thy mining man of Clifton, Ariz.. mt the question to officials of the Mer. cury Aviation Company yesterday. His manner, his gestures all spoke haste and impatience.
 Faster than bird can fy," said Al Wilson the company's manager.
 "All right, Carmichael acoeped, Let's go."
 And they went.
 Garbed in leather flying jacket and an aviator's helmet, Carmichael step ped into the cockpit of one of the Mercury ships, while Lieut.. David Thompson called mechanic to start the airplane's motor. "Off?" asked the mechanic, both hands on the propeller ready to give it a turn.
 "Off!" snapped Thompson. And around went the propeller to prime the motor. Then-"Contact," said the mechanic. Contact" Thompson repeated. There was an explosion and a roar. Dust and pebbles swirl ed hack and the ship took off.
 Step on 'er" Carmichael called to the pilot as the plane went aloft and banked sharply for the dash to San Diego.
 That was at 2:10 o'clock yesterday afternoon. One hour and forty-eight minutes later Carmichael was in San Diego. If he had taken a train it would have been o'clock. or if he had gone by motor he would have been an hour late for the usual dinner hour Instead he was there in mid-afternoon.
 Furthermore, one hour earlier than he could have arrived in San Diego by the fastest train, Carmichael was back in Los Angeles via the air. The< entire round trip, including the time it took Carmichael to negotiate a min ing deal representing thousands of collars, consumed three hours and fifty minutes. And the thing was done. T may have to go to Sam Francis co soon on another important deaP', said Carmichael as he stepped from the returned plane at DeMille Field
 '1f I do, shall go by air. Life Is too short and time too valuable. to waste on steam cars and automobiles"
 ''We shall be pleased to take you" said Wilson, as Carmichael counted out $225 in greenbacks to pay for the rush trip" south

GREENWAY GETS sl2,000,000 10 FINANCE AjO
 RAILROAD

Ajo, Ariz,-June 13.-Col. John c. Greenway, general manager of the New Cornelia Copper Company, is about to realize the greatest dream of his life
 Col Greenway who is in the east, is said to have raised $12,000,O0O to build a railroad from Ajo to the gulf and from Ajo to Tuscon, which will give all the mines of Arizona an out let to tidewater
 After Col Greenway built the great plant at Ajo and made such a huge success of what some consid- cred a doubtful experiment, he an- nounced that he had one further ann bition which was to build "a railroad from southern Arizona to the Gulf of California and establish a great port there.
 His dream seems about to be real ized. The surveying party which is locating the right of-way is nearing the Mexican border; the company has the necessary concessions and Col. Greenway is finding no difficulty in financing his proposition.
 Because of his nationwide repu- tation as an engineer, his ability for rapid execution and his high integrity Col. Greenway is said to have at his disposal ample funds for his project.
 The increase in the cost of trans portation of copper matte to eastern refineries and of supplies for mining camps from the east, is said to be a big factor in rushing completion of this project.
 As the New Cornelia teaching plant turns out electrolytic copper, they will be able to ship from Bay Saint George to all of the ports of the world. The project of the smell ters will probably go to refineries on the eastern seaboard by way of the Panama canal.
 The great mines of Arizona radiate like fan from Ajo, the line from this city to the gulf being the handle and the tips of the fan being the mines at Jerome and those of Cananea. Within the spread of the fan are located all of the great mines of the state and the fartherest will not be over 400 miles from tidewater by rail when the line to the gulf and connecting lines in Arizona now planned. are complet- ed.
 Since the armistice was signed plans for the construction of the Tuscon, Phoenix and Tidewater and the Verde valley railroad have been held up, pending drop in steel, but it is learned that the Phelps-Dodge interests, who are behind the Tucson, Phoenix and Tidewater and James s. Douglas, who is behind the Verde val ley, have concluded that steel is not scheduled to take a further drop and are going ahead with their plans for the construction of these roads. The survey of the Tucson, Phoenix and Tidewater runs from Tucson to a point about 15 miles west of Florence, where it crosses the Gila and follows the north bank to Chandler and on to

WOMAN HELD AS. ACCUSED THIEF
 BRINGS BIG SUIT
Mrs. Helen Wright of Pima County
 Night and Placed In Benson Jail.
(Phoenix Gazette)

Bringing action foh 900 for false imprisonment, Mrs Helen Wright has filed suit in the superior court against Rye Miles, sheriff of Pima county, his deputy, George Holloway, and the Maryland Casualty Company. Mrs. Wright alleges she was taken from the train and imprisoned at Benson in the belief that she was Nina Wagner, the girl who came here from Oklahoma with W. D. Thornton, whose report of having missed s1,7OO in Liberty bonds and 1000 in cash, led the authorities to telegraph along the line in hope of arresting Nina Wagner before she reached the coast.
 Mrs. Wright claims that the arrest was made on the train and that the deputy sheriff accompanied her to the ladies' dressing room and compelled her to take off her nightgown and dress with view of leaving the train at Benson. Arrested While at Tuscon
 In the complaint filed by Jesse c. Wanslee and Sprowls and Downing, Mrs. Wright claims that she left Phoe- nix on February 2S in response to word of the illnesses of her mother-in law, who was living in Mathis, Texas. She passed through Tuscon at mid night and at that point Holloway plac- ed her under arrest. Mrs. Wright all leges that she inquired the charge and that she was informed she had stolen certain money in Phoenix She claims that she then showed the of ficer the telegram ealing her to Texas and produced her marriage license, but the deputy is alleged to have sneered and declared that he did not believe her. He told her, she states, that she was the woman he wanted and that she would have to elave the train at the next stopping place.
 Mrs. Wright contends that he then went with her to the dressing room and not only remained while she dres- sed, but proceeded to go through her luggage, which greatly embarrassed her. She states she left the train at 2 o'clock in the morning and remain ed in nil at Benson for 12 hours. When she was released she was great. iy AiShtOhOu, Ihc pidilClu dtcTS, ucI nerves were shattered and she suf- fered great bodily harm and humilia- tion
 Husband Is Overseas.
 At the time of her arrest, Mrs. Wright's husband was with the over seas army and is stiu in France. She is a woman who is said to be fully two inches taller than Nina Wagner, and her hair is said to be a Titan, while the woman for whom she was arrested is a decided brunette with dark brown hair.
 Mrs Wagner was tried on the grand larceny charge for which Mrs. Wright was taken into custody, last week, the jury on Friday night being discharg ed by failure to come to an agree ment.

Linen in History
First Ofa Series OF articles on Linen.

While we owe the early development of silk
to China and of cotton to India. the mother coun-
try of linen is Egypt Flax is indigenous to the
valley of the Nile and the manufacture of linen
antedates history. We do not have to depend up
on written history to prove its antiquity, for pre-
served in the tOmbs of Egyptian kings have been
found for linen tapestries, embroideries and
plain cloth of a texture incredibly fine and ack-
nowledged to be of the respectable age of 5000
wears or so. The Bible often mentions flax in
Egypt and tells us that Pharaoh arayed Joseph IN
vestures of fine linen (about 100 B. c..
For centuries the Phoenicians transported lin
en- cloths from Egypt to all parts OF the Medlter-
ranean world. The Phoenicians were wild and
wandering people, possessed of remarkable ener-
pv they were more commercial in their habits
than the natives of any other Eastern states they
were famed navigators and extended their COM
merce into the most distant regions 1t IS more
than possible that in their visits to different ma
tons they not only bought and sold, but impaired
to the people of those countries the art of manu-
featuring goods.
Ireland is said to have been originally colon
lied by the Phoenicians. If this is true we can
easily imagine that the settlers would very soon
afterwards have applied themselves to their
tional industry. Although the beginnings of the
linen industry in Ireland are somewhat traditional
we find the linen trade there in very flOurishing
condition in the year 1910. A writer who lived
