how solid copper branding irons wear out; 49,

DAM BOULDER CANYON. !.

Frantic efforts are being made to secure stl1a'
immediate construction of the Boulder Canyon
dam on the Colorado and every pressure that can
possibly be exerted at Washington is being direct
ed to that end.
On the other hand, government engineers are
beginning to realize that while it would be perfect
" possible to build a dam at Boulder Canyon or,
for that matter, at any other point on the river,
it would be an economic mistake to do SO at this
time. AS one of them said last week, such meas
use would be but "spoiling the river at both
ends"
There is no politics in this question; it is pure
ly and simply an engineering and commercial
proposition. We have running through the state
a river which falls 3700 feet and which is capable
of developing a theoretical total of some 17,000-
900 horsepower. At the upper end of this fall
there is practicable damsite with natural storage
reservoirs behind it sufficient to impound 24,500-
900 acre feet of water-the flow of the river for
more than two years. With this dam built some
where in the neighborhood- of Lees Ferry or Glen
Canyon, every other dam below can be built in
controlled flow and without the least danger of
floods. This is the, whole situation in a nutshell,
and no amount of talk, political otherwise, can
alter it. 1t is still true that the average man of
common sense begins to build house at the foun-
dation, not at the roof.
And building a dam at the bottom of the fall
instead of at the top is doing that very little
thing.-Jerome News

PROUD OF AMERICAN PRESIDENTS

Some exchanges in commanding the innuendoes
implications and vituperative language of Senator
Hefflin against President Coolidge, endeavor to
make it appear that such attacks were made
against Woodrow Wilson while he was president.
There is a vast difference in dsagreeing with one
as to the best political course to pursue, and per-
sonal vilification. Senators Hefflin and Pat Har-
Tson were not debating any political issue, using
their immunity from the consequences of their
billingsgate, endeavored to besmrch the charac-
ter of President Coolidge by nsinuations and slurs
coarsely made. No true American would descend
to such old-time ward politics. The United States
has never had dishonest president Some were
greater than others, but their honesty of purpose
has never been questioned by honest, broad-Tnind-
ed, decent Americans, especially those who have
been elected to the United States Senate Even
decent democrats realize the vileness of the Heff
lin stunt and protest against it.

1t was fact. The outfit was going west. Wheth-
er the buTro was relief when gasoline gave out,
no one knows, but there was no bale of hay on so
instead of twisting the Ford the tourist probably
thought they could get power out of the burro just
by twisting his tail This is a great age of in
ventions for Arizona. When convertible force is
carried in this manner by tourists. II is probable
when the burro power was recuperating and let
ting gas do the work, the Arizona canary could
be used for broadcasting. Honest we dunno.

BILLIONS YES, BUT A GROCERY BILL?

Bonding the state of 81 70OO,OO for Phoenix
Ynna-Los Angeles highway, does not look good to
the average citizen. We are bonded to the limit
now, for all state purposes, and it is hoped that
the tax burden, piled on so heavily during and
since the war, can be lifted. 1t is fair enough
to bond ourselves to pay for immediate necessary
improvements and carry on for our children's
children, but the honest, business-like father of
today has no desire to put his children and his
chidren's children into Bondage" that will result
IN curses for his forebears. There is limit to
productivity and future possibilities Honest folk
will stop there, mortgaging only such of the fi-
ture as their generation visualize and feel GER
tain of accomplishment. Leave something for fu-
ture generation to work on from their view point

WHAT ACTUALLY COUNTS

1t isn't popular to suggest that rich man has
any particular rights when it comes to taxation.
For the last fifty years there has been a siren
uous attempt to.head off the rich fellow and we
are willing to admit freely that there were many
who became rich because of total lack of honest,
decent human principles Yet there are great
many big-brained men who made great fortunes
because they were great organizers and were not
50 much interested in the actual money as money,
but more interested in organizing and developing
given field of endeavor. 1t is rather a sad COM
mentary, but many men are jealous They have
not been successful in their own line They want
political npheaval Down in their hearts, this
class of unfortunates fully realize their limita-
tions, but they do not want the world to know it,
consequently feel it is great opportunity to stir
up less we-informed people to start something
Some day the great mass of honest hopeful peo-
pie are going to start out on crusade to put o9t
laws back on good, wholesome, honest basis, so
that friends and neighbors can live together as
man to man, as they did in the old days when
Arizona was young. There was only one defini-
tion of friend and neighbor then Politics didn't
count.

LET'S FINISH THE DISGUSTING JOB

The public is getting very much disgusted with
investigation after investigation going on in con-

every guilty person punished, but the mass of
irrelevant detail being lugged in with the hope of
splashing the opposition with rumor or gossip
which will affect him adversely in the political
game, is not tending to make those responsible
more popular. It would appear that many are
Jealous of the publicity gained by Senator Walsh
and desire some Of the linelight. It is doubtful
that Senator Walsh expected to find his party
mixed in, if he had he probably would not have
been SO anxious for the job However, regardless
of how disgusting it all is, the public should insist
on going through in spite of the petty side issues
and have the job thoroughly completed Tt should
