NATIONAL GUARD MATTERS
 WAIT ON ADJUTANTS CASE

With the adjutant generalship con- troyersy still unsettled by the courts, and with neither Charles w. Harris nor Walter s. Ingalls, (the governors appointee) drawing down any salary, ail matters pertaining to the reorgani- zation of the national guard are at a standstill, and virtually no military business is being attended to.
 Ingalls, has given up hope, appar- ently, of ever having the title to his office settled by the courts, for he has gone to work in the office of the United States attorney general. His office at the capitol building has been closed for the last several days, and even before that there was little to do for the reason that all military corre- spondence was held up through the fact that Harris refused to turn over the files.
 Harris, on the other hand, has had little to do, especially since the war department recognized Ingalls, as the head of the military department of this state. He has been occupying himself with other matters, too, and as far as salary is concerned, he has paid it out of his own funds if any has been paid.

SHALL OUR KHAKI-CLAD
 BOYS GO BACK AGAIN?

Y September 10, 1919, will long be re- membered by Gen. John J. Pershing as the date on which nearly two mil lion of his countrymen paid visible tribute to service we'll done. On that date he witnessed the apprecia- tion of the fathers, mothers and the sweethearts for the brave deeds ac- complished by the men who carried the Stars and Stripes to victory on the battle-scarred fields of France. The triumphant parade on that date when "Jack" Pershing and his men marched down Fifth avenue, New York City, did not mark the finale of American pride. The deeds of these soldiers of America will live on and on through the pages of history to the end of time.
 What contrast to this picture was recorded simultaneously by President Wilson at Bismarck, North Dakota. Here was man pleading against all odds for pact which would send the khaki-clad pride of the nation to the four corners of the globe in defense of foreign aggression against foreign jealousy. While the one man rode at the head of long lines of seasoned

THEODORE ROOSEVELT
 THE GREAT AMERICAN

The following short extracts from the late Col. Theodore Roosevelt's $ published works may serve double purpose at this time--frst, to show in some degree what manner of man he was, and second, to infiame every one of us with the spirit that actuated him:
 "We shall never be successful over the dangers that confront us; we shall never achieve true greatness, nor reach the lofty ideal which the foun- CTS and preservers of our mighty fed- eral republic have set before us, un- less we are Americans in heart and soul, in spirit and purpose, keenly alive to the responsibility implied in the very name of American, and proud beyond measure of the glori- ous privilege of bearing it."-Ameri- can ideals.
 "I want Uncle Sam to be peaceful; I want Uncle Sam to show scrupulous regard for the rights of others; but l want to see Uncle Sam owe his safety to two facts--in the first place, that he will do nothing but good to meIl and, in the second place, that he will submit to wrong from no man."-The New Nationalism.
 "We can not have too many immi- grants of the right type-the type that is right morally, physically. and economically - and we should have none at all of the wrong type. We should never admit any merely be- cause there is need of labor; better run short of labor than foul or dilute the body of citizenship into which our children are to enter. In practice it is not easy to apply exactly the proper tests, but fundamentally our aim should be to admit only immigrants whose grandchildren will be fit to in- termarry with our grandchildren, with the grandchildren of the Americans of today."-The Foes of Our Own Household.
 "The immigrant must learn that American life is incompatible with the existence of any form of anarchy and he must learn that we exact full re- iigious toleration and the complete separation of church and state. He must not bring in his Old World re- ligious, race, and national antiquities, but must merge them into love for our common country and must take pride in the things which we can all take pride in. He must revere only our flag; not only must it come first, but no other flag should even come sec ond. d."--American Ideals.
 Subscription to the Roosevelt Mem orial Fund may be made to either of the Flagstaff banks or to Father Vebre, county chairman of the fund.
 The officials in charge of the fund are not so anxious that large amounts be given as they are to see that the name of each good American is "written there," as one of the million or more when the lists are turned in.
 There is no partisan significance to this free-will offering of the people it is tribute to the "great Ameri- can."
