10000 IN RESERVE FORCE IN
ROCKY MOUNTAIN DISTRICT

Word has just been received by
Lieutenant Commander P. s. Theiss.
in charge of the Denver navy recruit
ing station that 10000 men are to be
enrolled in the naval reserve force.
1000 men from the Rocky Mountain
district for service with the fleet.
The reserves are to be enrolled for
four years, but will only serve one
year to eighteen months, after which
they are placed on inactive duty and
may return home if confirmed in rat.
ing will receive two months pay per
year.
1t is desired. insofar as practicable
these men be new men without prev
ious service, but in order to obtain
the required 10000 men at once, com
mandants are authorized to approve
requests for active duty in the navy
from any enrolled enlisted man, ex.
cept fleet naval reserves.

How England Grow,

A great deal of interest is taken
in England in the question Of coas,
protection. The ocean, assailing the
cliffs, gradually tears them away, but
this very process furnishes a defense
for the land by building up long
beaches of sand and shingle which ar
rest the waves before they can attack
the cliffs. An effort is making to pre-
vent. or better regulate. the removal OF
this material for construction and road
building, because in many places Its
removal has permitted the sea free
ly to exert Its power of erosion.
The ordnance survey has ascertained
that in the last half century England
has lost 6,640 acres by sea erosion
and gained $4,000 acres through re
claiming land the existence of which
is mainly due to material brought
down by the rivers.

STANDS FOR STATE
SovEREiGNTY-H

Washington, July 5.-The Republi-
can Publicity association, through its
president, Hon. Jonathan Bourne, Jr.,
today gave out the following state
ment from its Washington headauar-
ters:
There should be universal and
hearty commendation Of the attitude
taken by Warren G. Harding, tcWlb-
lican nominee for the presidency, on
the question of federal executive in
reference in the affairs of the sov-
ereign states.
when approached by leaders of the
suffrage movement as to his attitude
toward the suffrage question, Sena-
tor Harding called attention to the
fact that his own vote as a senator
had been recorded in favor of the
suffrage amendment. He also said
that nothing would please him more
than to have ratification made effec-
tive in time to give American wom-
anhood full participation in the cleo
tion next November. But he also in
formed the suffrage leaders that If
he were vested with executive author
ity he would not deem it proper for
him to trespass on the rights of states
by exercising his influence as pres
| ident to determine the action of a
state executive. AS Senator Harding
expressed it, his desire for the ratifi-
cation of the suffrage amendment
does not conflict with my determi-
nation that l could not with propriety
attempt to force any state executive
to hasten action in violation of his
own sense of duty. There is a point
at which full executive authority may
approach and trespess on the right of
states, and l should not want to tres
pass if bore the commission of au-
thority.'
During the past seven years we
have had in the White House man
who has not only endeavored to exer.
else all the powers of the executive
single handed, ignoring and overriding
even the members of his cabinet, but
he also has undertaken to dictate the
course of procedure of the Legislative
department of the government and
some of the Independent commissions
of a quasi-judicial character. He has
gone even farther than that and has
undertaken to tell the governors o.
states what they should do. His as
sumption of the divine right TO rule
is in absolute -controvention OF bott
the letter and the spirit of American
institutions.
1t will be a relief to the American
people to have in the White Hous,
a man who is content to center hi.
energies and abilities upon the per
formance of the duties entrusted Il
him. and to manifest confidence il
the ability and integrity of other Off
cials, national and state. who hav,
been selected by their peoples to rep
resent them in an official capacity.
