Einstein says that everything is relative.
 And long before Einstein came along we all knew that all things approximate.

 One of the common credulities of modern times Is belief in the omnipotence and nfabity of Science.
 If it announced tomorrow that cele- brated scientist had talked to the of Mars that expert of the Rockefeller Institute had discovered how to make cocktails out of chewing gum, we should all believe it.

lust? Nothing at all. In each of those worthy citizens is buried subliminal self that longs for just those things, and the preposterous books and pictures give him sort of vicarious satisfaction.
 These books and plays and pie lures. then. are above all diagnosis of civilized life in America. They show what it lacks by showing what the man who is living it instinctively craves. And the things which he craves invariably are less work, less restraint. more adventure, more free dom, and especially more freedom in the matter of love.
 The instinct of the average man as to what is the matter with his life is probably right. Most people doubtless do work too hard. and above all they work too monoton- ously They do the same things over and over again until those things become meaningless. There is not enough change and excite ment in their lives. There is not enough to feed their imaginations and develop their emotions. Most people. too. are not satisfied in love.
 So far the average man is right. He knows what he wants. even if he wont admit it, or at least he feels what he wants even if he doesn't know it. The books he reads, the pictures and plays he goes to see are his confession of longing and as piration
 Where he is wrong is in supposing that if he could just go to some far away place all would be different. As matter of fact. life is amazingly similar wherever you go. You can anywhere if ycu are strong and clever enough. and if you are not. the odds are against you on a South Sea Island no less than on the Island of Manhattan.
 Salvation for any man is not flight to some far-away place where the game is easier but in a careful study of the environment about him.

Falls From Train

TUCSON-County authorities and railroad officials were investigating Sunday and Monday the conditions surrounding the fall of Mrs Trinidad Gonzales from a Southern Pacific train at an early hour Sunday morn ing
 Mrs. Gonzales was attended, fol- lowing the discovery of the accident four miles east of Tucson, in St. Marys hospital by the railroad phy- sician, Dr. C. A. Thomas, and was said late Monday to be in a. critical condition Recovery from serious bruises and crushing about the head and face was said to be possible but by no means assured
 A complete mystery is said to sur- round the injuries sustained by Mrs. Gonzales and it is not even certain what passenger train she fell from. although it is considered from cir cumstances that she was probably riding upon train 109 and fell at about 3 o'clock Sunday morning.-Citizen.
 Commits Suicide
 LAGSTAFF-Ralph Shocks young man of Doney Park, died very suddenly Thursday night and it is thought he may have killed himself by taking poison.
 .1AbCaNS anu Jesse DeGfOat came here together last August from Kan sas and have been running the Dod- gen ranch, a half mile east of Donev Park school house. Shocks was in Flagstaff yesterday. About dark last night walking home he was overtak- en by Frank Pendergrass. Fender grass took him to his gate. little later DeGroat came to Pendergrass for help. He said Snooks had come home complained of feeling bad. had mixed some vinegar and water and something DeGroat supposed was quinine and drank it. Getting worse. he started out but collapsed in the road near the school house. He died during the evening. in such severe spasms that it took four men to hold him.
 DeGroat says Snooks often had bad spells with his heart: also that he had separated from his wife and had. in speaking of if. expressed a wish that it was all over" He was only 22 or 23.-Coconino Sun

The Waning Power of the People

Gradually and insdiously the reins of govern neut are being taken of the hands people acspise the which placed all the power sa their hands with a hurrah short decade ago. An this -s coming about quietly that we are not aware os it until some new portion of the power hss been sbStracted It did occur to us last spring that assault made upon popular rule nhea the legislature enacted a law providing that in Of a vacancy the legislature, it should slicd by appointment by board of supervisors of she county in which the vacancy occurs. This repealed the statute providing the filling vacancies special election by governor.
 The constitution places first the direct legis- 1asve power of the people Legislation by legis- lature is given secondary place. The legislature could be dispensed with entirely. work could se set naught by the people except emergency sesislztiOn and other of its legislation complete until 90 days after its adjournment within which, ss the people protested. they deemed by thcir silence to have given their approval
 Thus the legislature by the constitution under the thumb of the people The constitution must therefore have contemplated that the legis- iature should be directly chosen by the people
 We have often how the power of the people has been brazeniy defied by legislature in the making Of emergency measures those which plainly met emergency but which were palpaby so nearly unpopular that the referendum was almost certain be invoked against them. Now we have legislation which is designed to put members the legislature without the voice of the people, If should he enough vacancies by death resignation, might have legislature chosen entirely inde- renaensis of the sovereign people.
 To make aggravating this raid upon popu- lar government. have the provision that even she supervisors who indirectly represent the people a choice Of a successor. themselves given a free hand in the making of the appointment They Aound to appoint a of the same po- cal complexion the member who al vacated the ogfsce. notwithstanding he may elected by a scratch and in represents the majority resignation expulsion.
 may be doubted whether the new law vii stand a constitutional test first place it robs zlr legislature of a power which been held un- sessoned by every deliberative body-that deter- mining the qualification of membership.

THE ONCE OVER
Wherein a BelIhop Sees a Grave Menace in the Irish Peace Treaty
By H. I. PHILLIPS

Wherein BelIhop Sees Grave Menace in the Irish Peace Treaty To the English and Irish Peace
 Treaty Signers:
 Messrs. and Gents;-Tve been looking over copy of the treaty freeing Ireland and nothing has thrown such a scare into me in my life All the other bellhops is fright ened stiff, too. Not that We ain't glad to see the Irish get their liberty There is little enough liberty these days, and them that can get any of it deserves it. I don't know nobody I'd rather see get liberty than the Irish. Some of the best people in this hotel is Irish and the Irish guests always tip a guy with less of a struggle than any other nationality. I've some Irish blood in me, myself, for that matter, so the freer the Irish the better.
 But it's when I gets finished read ing the terms and gets down to the signatures that l gets the big scare. 1 lamps the signatures and sees among others these representing Ire land
 MICHAEL o. O. SILEAEN,
 ART OF GRIOBTHA,

 HAIGH.
 Now what I want to know is what this means. if anything. If it's a typographical error all well and good Red Casey, who is head bell hop at this joint, says of course it's a typo graphical error and that some print CT fell on his face while carrying a front page full of type just as the paper was going to press. But 1 notice that the signatures is the same in all the papers. And I'm asking you is it likely that all the printers fell on their faces the same night? They might fall the same night but they wouldn't all be carrying front pages
 Now the night clerk here who is bright guy and an Irishman. tells me it aint no accident at all and that thess names is the names of

the signers as they would be spelled in Old Irish.
 He says it's Gaelic spelling and that Art of Griobtha is the same as Arthur Griffith, and that Michael O. O. Sileaen is plain Michael Collins, the two o's being pronounced loudly like a call for help. And he tells me that this Seorsa Ghalgain ri Dhubhthaigh is George Gavan Duffy.
 It don't seem right to me and I think he's a liar. but I wouldn't call hint that now to his face of all times because he is pretty cocl1y over the freeing of Ireland. But it don't seem reasonable that there would be a name like Ii in the middle of Ghab- gain Rhubhthaigh because the Ii is French for yes and no Irish man would be named yes" any more than he'd be named mo- or perhaps 'Irefusetoanswer
 However. maybe I'm wrong. and that's what I want to know. If it's true that the Irish delegates went back to spelling their names the old Gaelic way it is a sure thing, I'm afraid. that all the Irish will be do- ing the same thing. now that they are free to do as they please. The Irish Americans will be following suit and you can see what a fix bell hop will be in
 l don't mind yelling George Cavan Duffy, but can you imagine me or any other bellhop running around a hotel lobby paging:
 Mister Seorsa Ghabhthgain Ii Dhubhthaigh, Call for Mrs Seorsa Ghabgain Ii Dhubhthaigh!" So you can see it's a serious prop osition and the hellhops of the world are all het up. Cont you get together and put something in the treaty making the Irish stick 10 simple l spelling? If you can't, I'm off the l hotel business for life. 1 Anyhow, do what you can and i obliGc. Very truly yours. l THOMAS K. BOYLE Ritz-Plaza Hotel, New York City

fications insist that only timber cut
from live trees will be acceptable. AS

there is no method known to the U1it-

by which the lumber can be distin-
guished from that cut from live trees,
