An ounce of prevention is worth tons of regret.

The State Land Bill

The state land bin as it passed the house may be expected to pass the senate, practically unchanged It is encountcring far less opposition thero than it did in the house where strong fight was made against it in the names Of the homesteader and the small catucman, mostly in the name of the home stesder.
 The bill is probably as good could have been drawn. Whether it will work with justice 10 all, as lll laws should do will depend upon it's administra ton and that Is where the human element with all it's fraTtcs comes in. No law can be automatically good
 Tho one thing agreed upon was that the old law was inadequate It was throttling the livestock in- dustry without the compensans effect of the increase of any other industry. The large stockmen were maintaining themselves in Arizona only by evasion of tho law, wnkod at by the state land department
 That the people wanted the law changed. though they may not have had a clear idea of the kind of change they desired, shown in the heavy ma Iortics cast for the constitutional amendments last fall. Why at the same time the amendment to inc land code defeated has been determined
 That amendment was practically the same as House Bni CO., though the latter as finally amended is advantageous to the homesteader. The former gave a preference to the applications for leases of those Homcsteadcrs who had occupied homesteads previous 70 the withdrawal of the lands The bl it passed tho house extends this period of preference to the present
 Here again the homcsteader must depend upon the administration Of the law for the law gives to the department broad discretion in its application. In this discretion the commissioner would have power to extend special privileges the influential but thinl, 1t may be assumed that he will not his discretion against the small man and in favor Of the powerful man.
 The success of the administration Of the state lands will be measured by the effect of the admin Che number of homes that may be established, and these homes will be built by the small holder. I'm portant as the livestock industry it must give way before the home maker on lands where permanent homes can be developed and maintained. No land can long be held grazing land if 1t is fit for agri cultural land.
 Ultimately every acre Of ground in Arizona that can be cultivated will be withdrawn from the range Tho administrator Of the state lands knows this and he knows that the success Of his administration de- pends upon earliest official recognition Of that fact It would therefore, be strange miscarriage of making should be restricted.
 What Arizona needs is a land policy which. while encouraging development by the larger of the state lands shall give the fullest opportunity for the genuine homcstcadcr to build up a home, for after au contcnted homes owned by those who live in them. constitute of the greatest assets or this or any other state.

The President and Ireland

The difference between what the president is re- ported to have said in relation to the peace confer and the Irish and what Senator Williams under stood him 10 say was so small that Secretary Tumuty hardly warranted in denouncing the first report deliberate falsehood." The fact is that guests at the White House dinner on that occasion were much at to the presidents observations re- garding the Irish Some of them could not remember nc first that he had said anything Chairman Hitch cock of the foreign relations committee could not until he received whispered refreshment from Senator Williams. when he recalled that tho president had said in effect that at present Ireland could represented at the conference and that by the way the burden of the statement that Mr Tumuity had branded deliberate falsehood." As to the exact meaning Of the presidents remark Mir Hitch cock would not venture assertion. nor would he controvert the interpretation of 1t to be that Irish could fight out the question of Irish independence and sclf-determinaton by peoples with the British.
 If the president said anything all the subject and VIC have the admitted word of his friends, Senators Williams and Hitchcock that he did he could not have meant anything different from what he was at first reported to have said-tha the subject of Irish independence one 10 be disposed of by the British and the Irish.
 TAere could, of course be the meaning that the question might up later the league Of nations uut certainly if the president had thought of such a thing be would not have uttered it at time when if could not have failed attention to the inter- ference of the league in the domestic affairs of its members.
 r It is only unfortunate that anything was said or rcported There is nothing the president could have said on that particular subject however coorless it might have been. that would not have been enbarras sing to him it reported
 There were three constructions one of which would inevitably have been placed upon anything he might have said: either he favored the independence of Ireland he did not he was entirely indifferent t6 Inc subject Two of these interpretations would have

The Game is Over

Good roads legislation was advanced another stage yesterday but probably it's progress not along a line that will bring it to final enactment. That is Senate Bfl 1T has in all likelihood gone as it will go It is to be hoped though that its may be definitely settled at the earliest moment that the legislature may get together upon real roads construction program. not only that Arizona may have system of good roads, but that employ ment may be furnished many hundreds of men who will sorely need employment.
 We think that time will be saved if the friends as we'll as the opponents of Senate Bill II regard that measure as having been finally disposed of if it's failure in the house yesterday morning had not been reversed in the afternoon.
 We do not believe that many members of the legislature indulged in the illusion that it would become a law And do not think when it is all over that d majority of those who had supported it thus far will regret that it did not Some of them with the greatest reluctance, under duress and threats. They had publicly declared that taey were voting against their convictions
 There was only we think. a small leaven of politics at the outset but it worked nightly until believe it's power fermentation been exhausted and tho legislature may proceed calmly to do whJ- we think it intended to when 1t was convened now nearly two months ago hoLest effective good roads law.
 There were very few politicians, mostly of the Hunt faction though with political aspirations who of that faction, concerned in the bill not because they believed it would become law, but who wanted to leave it to the governor to say whether it should become law
 We do not know what the governor will do. We have had word from him from anyone competent to speak for him. but the impression is that he will disapprove the bill. He could not we'll do otherwise He would, it is said. fail in his duty to the people if he permitted what openly and avowedly intended 10 be political machine to the great work of construction, and the penditure of millions of dollars. It preposter proposition, something unprecedented and veto of it by the governor instead of causing him embar rassment. are sure, would strengthen him with the people
 If now since the political game has been played it's finish. the members of the legislature will get together. take counsel with another and with men who genuinely interested in roads and leave the gentlemen who are more concerned with politics than they with good government, of their counsels feel that within the remaining nine days of the session, a good roads following tried and accepted lines, be evolved.
 This is the first excursion of the house of the fourth legislature into politics it will be the last

been offensive to Irish The third would necessarily have been affront to Great Britain.
 The lesson we can gather from this incident, is another illustration of the wisdom of the rule which hitherto obtained but in this case was broken by a previous agreement, that what the president says in such conferences is not to be repeated.

I THE B. F. Goodrich company is

first, because it gets absolutely
away from time honored ideas in

advertising renders a very beneficial
co-operative service to dealers han

commented favorably upon the i'm
provement being constantly made in
auto advertising, we feel that the lat
est effort by the Goodrich people
overtops all such publicity as has ap-
peared 50 far in the dailies."
