Arrives

{ The largest crowd that ever
assembled at the Great Northern
station in Great Falls rendered Z
welcome Tuesday afternoon to
J a k Dempsey. heavyweight
champion Of the world. upon his
arrival here to begin training for
his bout with Tommy Gibbcns,
st. Paul challenger. at Shelby,
July 4. for the title. The crowd
packed the station platform to

tracks, while the occupants Of

after he decended, found them
selves too busy protecting their
machines from the crush to at
tempt. to snap the champion.
Dempsey stood on the rear Of
the platform Of the train for e
moment waving greetings to the
crowd, but for a moment he was
lost in the jam after he stepped
down to the station platform.
But he WAS lost for only i mo-
ment.
Head and shoulders he stood
above the average man in the
crowd and there were few who
could not follow his course as he
and his party worked their way
through the crush. His automo-
bile drove to the Park hotsj,
nearly two blocks, before space
could be found to set a camera.

Is it not about time that the people
wake up and take this vital matter

Ii this were a political question,
there might be some excuse for the

playing, but it Is not in any sense Of
the term political. Arrayed with
those republicans who favor immedi-

such action stand Governor Hunt and
his little coterie of close personal adj

GAME WARDEN FAVORS
KILLING DEER in STRIP

Surplus deer in the Kaibab National
forest north of the Grand Canyon will
have to go, in order to save the range
from total destruction. This is the
verdict of G. M. Willard, state game
warden, who has just returned from
an inspection trip, made partly in
company with Governor Hunt, and he
is prepared to recommend to the gov
ernor steps that will afford full state
cooperation in the aims and plans
of the federal officials of the forestry
service and biological survey.
Under the federal plans, according
to Willard, special licenses will be
sold, at SO each, permitting the slay-
ing Of one adult male deer on the gov
ernment game preserve, the bound
aries of which coincide practically
with those of the Kaibab National
forest. One-half of the funds collect
ed from the sale Of these special per-
mits would go to the miscellaneous
fund Of the forest department and the
other half to the state game protec-
tive fund.
In explaining his position on the
matter, the state game warden said:
'In the first place it must be un-
derstood that the federal authorities
have complete jurisdiction on the fed
efal lands and are not subject to the
state law. They would have right
to issue special permits now, but once
the hunter found himself outside the
boundaries of the reserve he would be
subject to arrest for having in his
possession the carcass OF al animal
Shot in violation of the state law. In
order to secure cooperation, there
fore, it would be necessary to pass an
amendment to the game law exempt
ing such hunters from the operation
of law in all cases where animals
were slain under special federal per-
mits on the federal game preserves.

RIVAL ROAD FACTIONS
HOLD ROW AT MIAMI

With representatives of seven coun-
ties in attendance, and with a spec
tally strong delegation from Phoenix,
the good roads meeting called for the
purpose of organizing an association
to get behind the Improvement of the
main east and west highway, opened
at 2 o'clock Friday afternoon at Mi
ami, with Mayor L. B. Whitney, of
Phoenix, presiding.
Delegates from Phoenix began ar
irving early in the morning and before
noon the presence of three rival
groups, each intent on dominating
the afternoons proceedings, was
brought to light by the holding of
numerous conferences and cancnses.
One Of these groups win insist upon
an Endorsement In tote Of the recently
announced road program of Governor
Hunt, calling for a $20,000,000 bond
issue
Another, representing the Maricopa
county board Of supervisors and d GER
tain faction Of Phoenix chamber Of
commerce, will oppose endorsement, it
is stated, on the grounds that Mari
copa, bysvirtue of paying the largest
share of the three-cent gasoline tax
would be compelled to shoulder the
burden of financing the governor 's
program, this argument being based
on the supposition that the gasoline
tax through legislative action would
be converted into a sinking fund to
retire the $2D,O00,000 bonds.
Still another faction, headed by
The Coconino sun., 1923-10-19

Senator H. B. Wilkinson, is intent
on forcing the Blythe route into the
state program in preference to the
Phoenix-1uma highway, now nearing
completion.
A number went into the meeting
with the determination to secure a
paved road from the Colorado river
to the New Mexico line, thus afford
ing a direct route for transcontinentaI
travel through the Miami-Glob dis
trict and the Salt River valley. As a
secondary matter they are anxious to
secure the immediate Improvement of
the Rice-S Spfingerville route as a
means Of diverting travel from the
National Old Trails highway, which
parallels the Santa Fe across thc
northern part Of the state.
Under the governors program the
construction of a graded but not a
surfaced highway is called for across
the Indian reservation and it is prob
able that an attempt will be made to
amend the plans to insure the con-
struction of high-class highway
from Rice to Springerville.
Yuma has wired the leaders of the
movement that it will stand back of
the proposed organization for a CEN
tral route, provided that the Phoe-
nix road is made a part of the sys-
tenn, otherwise the association will be
vigorously opposed.
Aside from the cleavage of the
Maricopa delegation on the point of
whether the Yuma or Blythe route
should be adopted, there is a wide dis
parity of views concerning that part
of the governors plan that calls for
the construction of a road between
Casa Grande and Gila Bend, connect
ing at that point with the main line
to Yuma. Such road, it is pointed
out, would allow all traffic entering
or originating in the southern part of
the state to follow the line of the
Southern Pacific, thereby missing the
wonders Of the Salt River valley.
That the real motive of today's
meeting, however, is to boost the cam
didacy of Mayor Louis B. Whitney for
governor, is the view taken by GER
tain politicians. Whitney Is secretary
of the democratic state central COM
naittee and as such is credited with
having put Hunt over as governor
He is in close touch with the state adj
ministration and on terms of great
est friendliness with the chief execu-
tive. All of which lends color to the
runIor that Governor Hunt is groom
ing Whitney to succeed himself to the
governorship, and to this end, it il
predicted, Whitney will be given q
high position in the proposed organi-
zation for a central route. in exchange
for an endorsement of the governors
entire program presented at today's
meeting. Miami Bulletin.

But They Really Do Care

Il don't give darn" says some
one when reproved for his actions
and told that they will not meet the
approval of his friends. q" don't
give darn what people think" said
a rather well-known actress when
she returned from Europe the other
day after her domestic affairs had
been given a rather thorough airing.
But they do care. We all care
what others thing of us. We live a
group life, and it is natural to want
the approval of those around us. If
we must part company with them
we can do it safely, for ourselves,
only when we are convinced that
we are right and they are wrong.
Now and then some spoiled
favorite, as in the case of the Young
actress, snaps her fingers in the face
of public approval. That is bravado
or the desire for more advertising,
suggests the Milwaukee Journal,
Usually those who do it are the ones
who have had the greatest favors
from the public. Now and then two
people, reckless in the attraction of
one for the other, defy public opinion.
And they pay.
But for most of us the standards
of conduct that have been set up are
a steadying influence. The desire not
to go counter to the approval of our
fellows often holds us to the path
when we are sorely tempted to step
aside. And it is we'll that IL does.
The give a darn policy is
dangerous ground.

Age of Revolution and Revolt

1t is evidence that we live in an
age, not only of revolution, but of
revolt. We have seen the rise of an
art. ignorant of line and color and
perspective, like and inferior to that
of the caveman: school of music.
innocent of harmony and beauty,
echoing the savagery of Central
African tom-toms, accompanied by
dancing which would have shamed
the bacchanals, and by words which
are adapted to an Intellectual ca
pacity a shade above that of the
moron.
We read fiction more subtly de-
cadent than the literature OF the cor
rupt Roman Empire declining to it's
fall: and a poetry inferior in form
and content to that OF our remote
Teutonic ancestors. We listen TO the
praises of moral code like that of
a herd Of wild cattle: and we hear
critics and so-ealled thinkers extol-
ling these manifestations as the last
word in artistic and philosophical
achievement. 1t is nothing less-in-
deed. it is SO acclaimed by many of
its devotees-than a return to the
primitive, a protest against "over-
civilization" an even more radical
return to nature" than was
preached by the prophets of revo-
luton in the 18th century.-Yale
