insistence that the present county highway commits

The unanimity Of the people was made very plain
at the chamber of commerce meeting on Friday But
those who have talked with people on the streets
and business men were already aware Of that
sentiment Now and then a man is found who favors
a change But it will discovered that the objector
to the present commission falls into one of four
classes; who is directly or indirectly connected
with some contractor who a cinch one who has
some personal grievance against one or more mem

any public work being dissociated from politics. and
his hag-brother who regards it shame an enormity,
an unheard Of thing that the commission should have
spent 100000 for roads without permitting to
go for graft. For why do have public funds if
part of them is not be sequesered by those FORUM

After the glory of Napoleon, and

with the earth, he conquered the
earth, and he lost the earth in. the
battle of Waterloo.
What country or what man did not
feel sorry for France 80 years ago.
As seven years ago, when the Ger
mans Knocked at the gates of Paris;
all the nations large and small went
to help France not only to keep the
visitor out of the city. hut to send
him back where he came from.
And for reward, what did the world
get? Ingratitude! Who could imagine
that France would try to take Ger

could conceive that France would
help that unchristian Turk 70 destroy
the property and slaughter the Chris

they are Christians.
Millions of those unuclSy people

Many millions pray for death. For
only death can relieve them in avoid

Turk. Death is more merciful to
them than the Turk, death sweetens
their tender and innocent hearts, as
he did to the American mothers who
lost their beloved sons in France.

@. If hanging one for murder in

der why not?. N. w. Rigains. Mesa,
Ariz.
A. There is no such thing as legal
lied murder and there cannot be,
That is catch phrase devised by
the opponents of capitol punishment.
Murder is the unlawful taking of
human life. If the taking of human
life is made lawful as it is in those
states which have capital punish
ment it cannot be murder under the
definition OF murder.
@. Is there anything to prevent
one from transcribing a book to
photoplay form when one is not the
author? In case the author is dead,
what then? Thanking your for this
data, | remain-Subseriber Phoenix,
Ariz.
A. There is usually something
very serious in the way-the copy
right. All books worth while and we
suppose all that are not worth while
are copyrighted. Even If the author
is dead and the copyright has not
expired, the copyright is the prop
erty of his heirs. But if the author
has been dead long enough. as in
the case of one William Shakespeare,
it is safe enough to draw a scenario
from his works. But it would be
risky TO take such a liberty with the
book Of a modern author.

B0RAH FORSEES IMPERIALISM IN
 PACIFIC

WASHINGTON, April 3.-A taint of imperialism has been manifested in the foreign policy of the United States through it's constant partici- patton in the affairs of Pacific in sular dominions, according to Sen ator Borah, one of the Republican "irreconcilables.
 Senator Borah opposed American participation in control of the Isle of Yap and voted for the recent trea- ty placing it under Japanese man. date because he wanted, the United ed States to get rid of it." Senator Borah declared that American par ticipation in Pacific insular affairs was in direct contravention to the foreign policies outlined by George Washington.
 q have always thought that when we took the Philippines we repealed the Declaration of Independence" said Borah in discussing the Pacific dominions. "When we enter treaties covering the control of any other islands we disregard the teachings of Washington We had to have the treaty of Yap, according to it's ex- ponents, because it was necessary to insure peace in the Pacific.
 "COMPELLED TO ADOPT"
 Thus, step by step, after we en- tered upon this course of imperial ism, we are compelled to adopt all the methods and customs and pare tices of imperialists."
 Borah was utterly opposed to any sharing of responsibilities by the United States and other nations in the control of the Pacific islands. He declared that such "cotenancies" all ways led to wars.
 "You will find that the first con- troversy that ever took place on earth with reference to property was when Abraham and Lot had quar- rel over their cotenancy," Borah add ed.
 'T think there has sprung up in this day and age the idea that some superior nation ought to take upon itself the obligation and the duty of administering to all the dependent peoples of the earth. have observed how the idea takes root, particularly sources are discovered to be in the possession of the dependent people.

Someone in the House." a screen version of the famous stage play whose story of polished society crook and jewel robbery made it a Broadway success, tonight at the Empress theatre, with an all-star cast. The film version of this mys- tery drama is a Metro special produc- tion and is packed with thrills and full of action.
 It is the story of Jim Burke, known as "The Dancer" who by his sauve manners ingrates himself among the social elect. He becomes friendly with young society man and through him gains entre into the set which he is planning to rob.
 Through "pawnbroker fence" Burke makes arrangements to sub stitute a set of paste jewels for the original diamonds which he hopes to obtain by making love to the beautiful daughter of a wealthy fam fly. Just when success seems as- sured the dancer finds his carefully laid plans overturned by an event which he had always figured as ab- solutely impossible-the love of a good woman.
 Edmund Lowe, as Burke, gives to the difficult part all that dash and debonnair character which one eX- poets from a society crook. Vola Vale as the daughter of wealth who never loses her trust in the pseudo gentleman, is extremely realistic. William J. Irving playes the typical society -clubman and man-about town. Edward Connolly does some of his best work in his excellent portrayal of the "pawnbroker fence.' Others in the all-star cast are Lawrence Grant, Clara Lee, Howard Champion, Henry Miller, Jr., Edward Jobson, Thomas Mcclure and Jack Lowering. Also the comedy "Trotting through Fur key" and Kinogram.

 "DEPRIvING THEM OF WEALTH"
 "They are administering to them by depriving them of their natural wealth. You will find that whenever a dependent people are discovered to be in possession of vast natural re- sources immediately some nation feels a benevolent desire, to lift them up to the common level of civilization and give them a better form of government.
 Borah declared he was opposed to this doctrine.
 q think each people have in a measure got to work out their own salavtion," he continued q do not think that democracy and free gov ernment are things you can bestow upon a people over night. I think our United States can best serve hu- manity by showing the world a re- publican form of government can be adapted to the growing industrial conditions which now confront the world"
