 objections were offered there and they were met either by argument by the acceptance of suggestions changes in the original form some thing be easily done without the sacrifice any essential feature.

 That is the outstanding feature of the bill-the abandonment of the costly and inefficient pieceneal system which always prevailed Arizona, under which, great expense, we have constructed de- tached stretches of roads. with almost impossible gaps separating communities.

CAMPBELL DECLINED
 ID BE NOMINATED
 FUR VICE PRESIDENT

That he refused to have his name before the convention for vice presi dent of the United States after the name of Governor Allen had been pre- scented was the reason why the west ern states in support of Gov. Thomas E. Campbell did not have the 'oppor- tunity to vote for him, according to Percy R. Milnes, secretary of the gov ernor, who returned Thursday from Chicago.
 MT. Mines stated that Governor Campbell declined to have his name presented because his sole interest had been to have a westerner named, and when Governor Allen was placed in nomination he refused to permit H. O. Burson, national committeeman of New Mexico. to name him. That part of California. Utah, Idaho. New Mexico Arizona. North Dakota, South Dakota and part of Mississippi were for Cover nor Campbell, was the word brought back by Mines.
 The secretary to the governor stated that he had never heard a bette. speech than Governor Campbell made to the platform committee He presented an interesting array of facts and figures, he said, that were responsible for put ting the reclamation plank in the plat form.
 One of the outstanding things that Governor Campbell brought to the at tention of the committee was the fact that for eight years there had been no new reclamation projects in the west, !" said MT. Mines.
 Governor Campbell pointed out the needs of the west which, he held. would result in not only the salvation of the west. but the salvation of the nation, the increase of production reducing the cost of living. MT. Mines also told Of the fine effort of the governor directed at an increase in federal aid for roads

Another Way of Doing 1t

It amazing that who ought to know should advance the crazcst theories for the ton of problems which arise from time to time. In article in the Forum George A. Garden a Wall street lawyer, advises the public to cooperate in the maintaining high prices rather than try bring them
 Tt is true" he says. that the general practice of economy will reduce the demand labors pro- ducts and thereby lower their prices, would tend also proportionately the price labor that the deflation the currency would from the products the imitation which has been put into them, but likewise true that by the stroke the price of labor would be approximately denated. the problem is to reach sound and permanent basis without encoun- tering the revolutionary effects which must come defaton production and limitation of de- mand and consumption
 This, it will be perceived is contrary to all the ahviee have had the subject of high prices and MT. Garden the only outspoken advo- of high and still higher prices only advocate of imitation for the imitation, something that everybody else has deprecated though regarded as to some extent, unavoidable.
 But Mir. Garden would go still further He ad- vises the remonetzation of silver. a step toward the solution of the problem Tt is worthy of consd- eration." he argues. that sufficient basis for a proper fotation of currency could be found in the remonetization of silver desired results &C., cornplished without any great shock countrys the worlds economic position.
 This suggestion to keep d cheap dollar circuat- ing until the worlds debts paid naturally appeals 10. debtors and just naturally. does appeal to creditors numbering millions government bond holders. It is the idea made the silver popular in the and the middle west which had been for years borrowing gold from east, and wanted to it back in the form of cheaper money.
 If cheap dollar may a good thing a cheaper ore is certainly better one We have now 50-cent
 dollar; if should substitute dollar the worlds debts could be paid more quickly And know a still quicker way that. That is repudation which is end Of the road pointed by Mir. Garden. and not far in ad- of the point to which he directs to so for relief
 Any dollar less than 1oo-cont dollar is not an honest dollar and those of who a cheaper -,sr to give n exchange for the honest dollars we
