as necessary or useful for a league to preserve peace.
 we have reached the conclusion that the true coiif<se to bring America into an effective league to preserve peace is not by insisting with MT. Cox upon the acceptance of such pro- vision as article 10. thus prolonging the unfortunate situation created by Mir. Wilson's insistence upon that ar- ticls but; by frankly calling upon the other nations to agree to changes in the proposed agreement which will obviate this vital objection and other objections less the subject of dispute.
 Look to Harding for Relief
 For this course. we can look only to the Republican party and its candi- dates: the Democratic party and Mir. Cox are bound not to follow it. The Republican party is bound by every consideration of good faith to pursue such a course until the declared object is attained.

This may have been due to the fact that the Demo cratic administration had paralyzed the service by removing from their posts in important places sub stantially every trained man and re- placing them by untrained men. some of whom had no other qualifications than that of being very large cam paign contributors.
 Seldom has any information come from the Democratic state department that did not first reach the American people through the reports of our news paper correspondents abroad. The consular service, built by Republican genius is excellent, but the lack of any organization to collect and digest in- formation about the current political affairs in other countries has been no- torious.

 That course Mir. Harding is willing to follow, for he said in his speech of Aug. 2S:
 e I would take and combine all that is good and excise all that Is bad from both organizations (the court and the league). This statement is broad enough to include the suggestion that if the league. which has heretofore riv- eted our considerations and apprehen- sion has been so entwined and inter- woven into the peace of Europe that it's good must be preserved in order to stabilize the peace of this continent. then it can De amended or revised so that We may still have a remnant of the worlds aspirations in 1918, built into the worlds highest conception of helpful cooperation in the ultimate realization.'

HALF OF lIARICOPA COUNTS
 $4,OOO, BOYD ISSUE IS TO. GO TOBUILD STATE HIGHWAYS.

More than half of the t4.OOO.oO0 bond issue of Maricopa county will be spent on 74 miles of road. which it would otherwise be necessary for the state to build in order to connect Mari copa with the counties of Yuma, Gila. Pinal and Yavapai." said W. K. Bowen, when questioned relative to the atti- tude of Maricopa county In the matter of state highways.
 Tt is time that people of the other counties of the state know just where Maricopa stands in the matter of state highways. Here Is the way that the county board of supervisors view the matter. Just consider these facts: First of all. Maricopa county has 1000 miles of graded roads in the irrigated districts to look after, besldes outside desert roads; and in addition has over f.S00 bridges and culverts. all of which are a big expense. maintained out of the county road fund. We also have almost half the auto travel of the state to wear out our roads. and soil that is hard to maintain under the heavy travel.
 'The statement that none of our bond issue will be spent on through roads for the benefit of the state sys- tenn of highways is not true. will also state that the "A miles of road will be of the highest type of concrete construction, from sixteen to eighteen feet wide. six inches thick. with a shoulder nine inches in thickness. All material to be thoroughly washed and the cement to come up to government test.
 Building Much State Highway
 "The 75 per cent road fund of 1920 fs now being used to build bridges across the Agua F'ria and the Hassa- ysmpa rivers. These bridges are or the Highway between Phoenix. Wick enburg and Prescott. going north; an- other bridge over the Hassayamps river near Palo Verde. going west on the Yuma road. win be built out of tho same fund.
 "Maricopa county has only nin' miles of road to build to make a con. uectlon with the Superior Globe high. way. This piece of road will be con strurted this year out of county funds
 Tn dollars and cents. Maricops county has spent s15,000 on the road from Agua F'ria river to Wickenburg
Arizona republican., 1920-10-15

and will spend S1OO,O0O on the same road for bridge purposes. As above noted. this is on a line of the state highway system north to Yavapai county. The county has spent S200,- 000 in the last two years on the Mesa Phoenix road, also part of the state highway plan.
 "In order that Maricopa county should connect with every adjoining county there remains only 90 miles on the Black Canyon road to connect with Yavapai county. At the present time Yuma county is prepared to come east as far as Welton. but there is still so miles between Welton and the Mari copa county line which must be pro- vided for by Yuma; and Maricopa will be ready to meet Yuma whenever Yuma is fully prepared to meet Mari copa. The 30 miles to connect with yavapai county can be taken care Of without great difficulty and will be by the time Yavapai reaches the Maricopa county border.
 No Other VIII Equal It
 After travelling over the Mesa Phoenix road. one can get an idea of what the road system of Maricopa county will be like in about two years. We think no other county will have spent as much on lines of state high way as Maricopa county when the present program is completed. Certain delays have been encountered in get ting to work. but now work has been started at several points.
 "Maricopa county is going to have the best system of roads in Arizona. Maricopa county wants to connect with every other county fin the state All that the county asks is for faiI treatment and little consideration No other county has the burden oi building and maintaining bridges tc anything like the extent which is nec- essary in this county, and these bridges are necessary in order thai all the people of the state may us' | them.
 "Maricopa, through the Water Users Association. has spent on the Roose welt road. s670.000, and the county ant the Water Users are willing to .Qp. fur ther in putting this road in shape t, serve the big area in northern Gils which is now waiting an outlet to as ' sist it's development"

ELECT HARDING, - JOHNSON URGES;
 ATTACKS LEAGUE

CLEVELAND, Oct. 14.-The cleo ton of Senator Harding as president cf the United States was urged tonight by Senator Hiram W. Johnson of Cali fornia in the second of his speeches under the auspices of the Republican national committee. He also attacked the league of nations and the treaty which embodies it.
 Eighteen months ago when Presi- dent Wilson called the league of na- tions the greatest Magma Charta hu- manity. was ever given" MT. Johnson said. "and when all of us, with the bloody war on our hands, were having a mental reflex. a psychological re- action that was necessary, we well comed 1t with relief.
 At that time 1t was treason to de- nounce it. or to preach Americanism and nationalism. but thank God. after a year and a half it is respectable to preach Americanism again.
 The great question before us is: Under which flag do we henceforth march, the polyglot banner of Europe and Asia, or the Stars and Stripes?"

 LONDON, Oct. 14.-The officials of the Irish elf-Determination league. which sends out reports regarding the condition of Lord Mayor MacSwiney in Brixton prison. have made no com ment on American press reports that some New York physicians regard a 6O-day fast as humanly impossible. Theyreiterate their denials, however, that he is receiving nourishment. The league officials declined today to spec ulate on the time the mayor may yet be able to hold out, merely saying: "He might die any minute. or on the other hand he might survive several days"
 Mrs. MacSwiney continues to make her customary three-hour visit each evening to her husbands bedside. The bulletin issued tonight by the Irish Self-Determination league says Mayor MacSwiney is very weak, but still conscious.

NASHUA, N. H.. Oct. 14.-Senator Borah of Idaho, speaking here tonight. renewed his attack on the league of nations. He declared that article II of the league covenant was more in famous than article TO-" adding that article 10 was a straight contract for the United States to furnish military force for any war by any nation in the league.
 Under article H." he said. we are compelled to furnish men and money for police purposes anywhere that may be determined upon by a supreme council sitting behind closed doors. While the United States would have a vote in the council. European diplo- mats would see to it that it's actions were unanimous.
