HEAVY PUNISHMENT IN FEDERAL COURT

The bringing into the state o1 $1OO,OO0 worth of booze brought tc Harry c. Wilson, D. M. Phillips, and
 Bart Hockett fines of $1O,6OO and two years in Leavenworth prison, and to Mrs. Harry Wilson one year in Canyon City, Colorado, prison. An other man, Joe Speer, is awaiting sentence for the same offense. These people brought in from Rodeo, New Mexico, so much booze that they were able to supply the wants of the thirsty inhabitants of the south part of the state for many months, but the minions of the law came down on them and took them into custody un- der the Reed amendment. They were convicted of the crime in the federal court and Judge Sawtelle doled out the heavy sentences. The fines and penitentiary sentences were the lim- it under the law.

 Among the others was the bill pro- viding for the licensing of sheep and goats owned by residents of other states and grazing in Arizona; the }bill providing means for hotel man to sell property to pay the rent on the room of a person who beats his hotel bill; bill for the regulating of procedure by disbarment of attorneys R bill providing means of an unpaid employee being given civil judgment against an employer, in the same ac- tion in which the employer is arrest ed and without further cost.
 To Senator Herndon also came the work of engineering Representative Waters road bill through the Sen ate.
 Representative Waters strongest bill introduced in the House was the one providing for a $5O,OOO appro- priation for a road from the Utah line to the point where the bridge is to be located down through Kingman. Though this money will not cover the cost of the road, it will be a long step in that direction and helps to assure such a road. This bill has passed both houses and is now awaiting the Governors signature with strong probabilities of it's being signed.
 Other bills introduced by Waters were, the bill providing that all fuses used in Arizona shall have the burn- ing time stamped on the wrapper of eafh fuse; providing for a statue of Frank Luke, Jr., to be placed on the Capital grounds; A bill to amend the act relative to salaries of County off, ficials; bill providing that at least 55 days before any general election the secretary of state shall cause to Ee printed the constitutional amed- 'ments which are to be voted upon by the people; the bill providing regul- ations concerning the employment of workmen.

BEAN GROWERS
SUFFER LACK OF
COST FIGURES
MUST HAVE FACTS IN ORDER
TO GET PROPER TARIFF ON
JAPANESE PRODUCT

Michigan bean growers who are
asking for a protective tariff on jap
anese beans in order that the home
grown product may be protected from
the unfair competition of cheap for
eign labor find themselves at a seri-
ius disadvantage because of the fact
that accurate cost of production fig
ures are not available.
If the Michigan growers, and those
from other states who will appear be-
fore Federal committee this month
to demand protection for their pro-
ducts, had definite figures to show
exactly what it costs them to grow
beans, their chances Of getting the
legislation thew want would be
greatly increased.
Michigan farmers are not likely
to be caught in such positions in the
future, says Charles H. Graves,
Farm Management Specialist at the
Michigan Agricultural College, at
Lansing. "All over the state growers
are coming to realize the need for
definite cost figures, and the use of
farm account books will provide them
in the future with just such facts as
they wont now in the bean situation,

One Of the pleasing features OF
the campaign to provide funds for .
monument and fitting memorial to
Theodore Roosevelt Is the fact that
the movement Is non-partisan.
In the long list of names Of the
various state committees now inter
ested in the work OF obtaining such
funds, as well as In the list Of the
national executive committee, appear
the names OF many Of the most
prominent Democrats In the United
States, as well as the names Of Re-
publicans and men prominent In other
walks of life aside from politics.
Leading men throughout the coun-
try, regardless of political or per-
sonal views, responded instantly to
the call for leaders when the plan
was mentioned, and the movement
since has grown to such an extent
there remains but the one thought
that of making certain the success OF
the plan. A glance down the list Of
Roosevelt Memorial Association mem
bers disclose the following men
prominent In Democratic circles:
Thomas f. Smith, member Of the
national committee, Tammany secre-
tary and congressman; Alton B. Park

NATIONAL OFFICIALS
HONOR ROOSEVELT
MEMBERS OF ADMINISTRATION
SPOKE FEELlNoLY OF COL
oNEL's AMERicANisM At
TIME OF HIS DEATH.

The death of Col Roosevelt, last
January. caused wave Of sincere
mourning to spread itself over the en-
tire country. OF the thousands Of ex-
pressions of appreciation from every
class Of citizenship. there were none
more eloquent than those Of the OH
cials of the national government, at
Washington.
William G. McAdoo, then Secretary
of the Treasury, said:
Theodore Roosevelt incarnated the
fighting spirit Of America. He did
not sniff the battle from afar. He
drank deeply of its fire at the storms
centre. Whether upon the field Of war
or In the political arena, he struck
with mighty blows. He preferred the
battle-ax to the rapier because he
could cut deeper. and the trip-hammer
to the sledge because he could hit
harder.
Like all men of genius, Mr.. Roose-
velt had his eccentricities. and like
all men Of impetuous force. his judg-
ments were not always right. He
could not have been human II he had
been infallible. No one will claim
infallibility for Mr.. Roosevelt, or for
any man. and while 1t was not always
possible to agree with his views and
policies, no one could be so partisan
or blind as to deny his great virtues
or to give Just recognition to the
Invaluable services he rendered to his
country"
