Dr. Traprock and the Opening of the
 Shah SpaSDu

"1t is a great pity that the develop ment of navigation, particularly by means of the gas engine, is working such havoc among the natural feed- ing grounds of our fish," our friend Dr. Walter l.. Traprock was telling us. "fhoy naturally dislike the flavor Of gasoline in their food"
 "l remember when it was not un- usual 10 catch shad five feet long and weighing two hundred pounds. It used to be figures that a hcn-shad's roe would contain about one hundred and eighty million eggs, so that the danger of race suicide seemed remote.
 Well do remember tho last bis one 1 got hold of. My brother Rod ney and l were together in small sharpic, he rowing while l trolled. We were in mid-stroam, opposite the landing of a ferry where the fish al- ways came in on May 2s at exactly si23 D. m. They never varied from this time schedule by more than a second, and on the stroke of 2:23 my rod bent sharply and the fight was on.
 Prom the way in which the fish hauled us through the water l knew he was a giant. The jab of my hook had evidently discouraged him from his intention Of proceeding upstItam to tho spawning grounds, for he now turned and made straight for the open sound which Is some twenty miles wide at this point. Making my line fast 1 joined brother in trying 10 force our course onto Saybrook Point, lest we founder in the rough water be- yond.
 "Wc were so successful that we finally managed to beach the shad at kenwick Point. where we killed him with our boathook. The copper bot- tom of our boat was heated to such an extent by the speed we had made through the water that we had only to lay the fish on it. and in five min- utcs WIG had the most delicious plank cd shad I have ever tasted. Rodney and I tried 10 count up the roc, but ] we were ncvcr able to agree on the l exact figure: 1t was somewhere be- l tween two and three hundred mil- lion.'

tspringiieId1 today" reads a news
 dispatch of yesterday.
 There was minority report. rep | reeCn,ng the views Of those who be-
 lieve, for instance, that dancing Is one
 of the greatest cal+sas of divorce. | There will be minority expressions J everywhere. as people differ in their l views. Ii is not the purpose here to | comment on the step taken other than
 Dr. George Elliott, who favored ruch 1 removal Of said ban. when he stated that "R2hgion must appeal 10 the con science, and fl is the conscience of | men that must ba trustel.'
 The point which interests especially
 is that portion Of Dr. EIiott'o re- marks which pointed out that there is a vision of. time when flaw snail be no more because written in the hearts Of men" In other words the speaker saw the period dreamed Of by ideal ists when men and women will live rightly and fairly and dcccntly. not because there is law against theft, murder and other crimes, but because they will feel the urge to follow their own c0nscinnces.
 You who read this, stopping to think, are quite sure that your neigh bor's property is safe as you are con- cerned, not because you know he could have you arrested and impris- oned were you 10 steal, but rather because you have no desire to take that which Is not yours. You know i the lives Of others are perfectly safe, l rot because of your fear Of the pris- on or of death but because you have l no desire to kill. The thought re- ! volts you. But, you say, it is neces- | sary to have law against theft and | murder. merely because other people, 1 in their need or thcit greed or their anger, do steal and do kill.
 And you are probably right, The laws are not needed to protect society because everyone would be a thief or a murderer. The laws are needed be- cause of some who are restrained only because Of their existence.
 Probably the millennium will never come to this earth, but the nearest approach to it will be that time when gradually the laws cease 10 exist be- cause there will be no need of them. Religion is the means through which this improvement in men will come if it comes at all. and all religion needs a conscience to work upon. Many have it; many have not The pessi- mists believe the former class is grow ing, The optimists believe the world Is influenced by conscience more than ever before.
 If we cant he optimists, we may at least try to bolster up tho optimist's in our own lives

A DEMOCRATIC IDEA OF HEARD

On Tuesday evening the editor of the Messen-
ger and other democrats went to Glendale to hear
and see Dwight B. Heard, fellow publisher,
launch his campaign for nomination in the re-
publican primary for governor of Arizona.
The speaker was well known to his audience,
having for 20 years led an active life in this COM
munity.
An audience of some 1000 greeted him and no
one left during the meeting.
With stereopticon views of various dam sites
on the Colorado river an illustrated lecture de-
velopnent Of the river followed
Mr.. Heard has the correct idea that the people
desire action and that flood control dam, to be
built by the government, comes first on the list.
With 14-rnlon acre feet wasting annually, he
thought our people should cease damning each
other and proceed to dam the mighty river.
His entire address was clean, able and the talk
of good citizen rather than partisan. AS a
maiden effort Mr.. Heard was success in pleas
ing, interesting and entertaining his audience
Phoenix Messenger,
This from Editor Mills, who always has been a
steadfast democrat in his political beliefs, and
man big enough to have many of his friends in
sist on his running for governor on the demo-
cratic ticket, is a high compliment to Heard
Not only a compliment to Mr. Heard, bat reacts as
a broad-ninded compliment to Editor Mills, a
pioneer whose aim in the mellowing years of life
is not for what he can get out Of it, but more
how much can we get out of tfor Arizona.
The Coconino sun., 1924-08-15
HIDING THE OsTRICH's HEAD

Again we rise to remark that under the terms
of the Colorado river compact authority for rati-
fication is vested solely with the legislatures of
the respective states. The governor is not even
clothed with the veto power in this matter. The
several candidates for governor in Arizona seem
pact is proposition to be disposed of by them.
How do they get that way ?-Clifton Copper Era.
Editor Bill Kelly states legal fact, but
neglects to say that the influence of Governor
Hunt during the last session of the legislature re-
suited in the defeat of the pact, even though he
claims to be neutral. Now that he is tooth and
toe nail against "that damnable pact" as he.
terms it, what chance would it have If he was re-
elected? No man for the pact can consistently or
conscientiously support Hunt.
