WILL JOURNEY TO BOULDER CANYON

Tomorrow morning a large party of Mohave county people will leave for Boulder Canyon damsite to give that wonderful site the once-over. Many photographs of the country will be taken on the trip. The visit to the site is for the purpose of giving our citizens an insight into the wonderful gorge and to cruize out road to a point where access may be had to the camp that will soon be erected there. As many of the visitors will attend the meeting of the League of the Southwest at Riverside and San Diego, they believe that first hand knowledge of the project would be far more interesting than hearsay.

 attention of Congress.
 On the one hand is arrayed the organ

 United States, not only those of the
 south And on the other, the fertilizer trusts, the water power trusts and the Chilean interests which now have a mo-
 nopoly on nitrate sales in the United States.
 Because the project is in the south, and because in it's construction during the war extravaganza was practiced. certain
 members of Congress would scrap it, and suffer to go to waste the nearly slOo,-
 coo 900 already expended, this despite their knowledge that an additional relatively
 small appropriation would complete it., make the government independent of for eign governments for the basis of ex- plosives, and enable the farmers of the
 country to secure high grade fertilizer at minimum cost.

THE NEWRERRY CASE

While the Telegram is not what one would call
infatuated with Senator Newberry's method of
breaking into the senate it is glad that the supreme
court Of the United States has discovered limit
to the control of congress over state affairs. The
full text of the decision setting aside the conviction
of the senator has not yet been received here. but
from the press reports it appears that majority
of the justices decided the regulation of state pri
mary elections is not proper function Of the fed
eral government.
In that view the south generally will gladly con-
cur. Many times in the past there have been
threats of force blls" with drastic enforcement
agencies, usually federal troops. to see that the
south ran things as the party in power in the nation
wanted them run. Such laws have always been
bitterly resented as interferences with the rights Of
the states If the act under which Newberry was
indicted and convicted is unconstitutional 1t stands
to reason that the various regulative measures now
happily defunct, by which the south ives to have
been controlled, arc also beyond the scope OF fed
eral authority,
Members of the senate and house Of represen-
atives arc Just as much officers of the state as the
governor and his cabinet and there is no more
reason why federal courts should interfere in The
election Of one than another.

HOW TO MOVE THE CAPITOL

The little furry about moving the state capitol
which Jack Worthington. who is watching the
legislature at Tallahassee, thinks is not likely to
amount to anything. has at least demonstrated two
things which should be accepted as the basis of
further efforts. Those are, CD that the people
want the capitol removed but, (2) they not
agreed as to where it should go.
So long as every suggestion Of moving the cap
ito is followed by a scramble for preference among
half dozen cities the legislature has good excuse
for passing the buck" The moment all those who
favor removal can agree upon new site, the
project will be assured
But cities like Ocala. Orlando. Lakeland and
ether points. any of which would BE- desirable
locations, can not and will not voluntarily relin-
quish their claims without a showdown 1t is
unreasonable to expect them to do SO. But if
there were a genuine cfcrt made to get them TO-
sether-if each were given its day in court and its
case passed upon BY authority which It could
respect-lhcrc would he no further argument
They would all pull together. This can be ac-
compished by voluntary association, including
the business men Of all the leading claimants and
south Florida generally. Such an organization
could be formed at once. 1t could canvass and
cultivate sentiment for removing the capitol at the
next session. II could consider impartiaty the
grounds upon which each city is asking for its
location. 1t could work out general agreement
which would unite the sentiment of the whole
peninsula upon one point, so that when the matter
came up again it would be a straight two-sided
fight tallahassee against the place chosen by the
association.
This strikes the Telegram as the only way by
which actual progress can be made This paper
would be glad to line up fer any city which had
been duly selected by representative body Of
business men. after giving Lakeland. in common
with other applicants, chance TO be heard but it
does not feel like abandoning its own town. which
has good strong grounds upon which to base bid
for the capital, and push the case of some other
place with no better grounds for its choice. Pre-
sumably the people of the rest of the peninsula
feel the same way about it, which accounts for the
variety of views on locations.
But why not get together in a fair business-like
way and have tangible proposition ready for the
next legislature9

While the press may be charged with having
its own interest in view in working for this measure
it clearly in the interest Of the public, and so
vitality necessary at time when taxation and the
spending Of public funds is running riot, that the
Telegram ventures sincerely to hope il will be-
come the law.
'Pitiless publicity is the only safeguard the
taxpayer can have. That publicity must be COM
pulsory, if he would watch his cash, paid out to
the collector to its final destination, and see that
it does its duty. Governor Hardee is said to be
favorable TO this in principle. Most states
have such law. Florida needs it, Next to the
budget system, there is no possible addition to our
fiscal safeguards which would do so much toward
conserving the money of the people.
