THE JOLLY HUNGER.

To the Editor of The Republican: Sir-I noticed in yesterdays issue the eXuberant effusion Of MT. Barr. who seems to be the only original Jolly Lunger." and have therefore moynted my Pegasus and I dedicate to him the following outbreak: oh. am Jolly Lunger
 And my heart is filled with glee. I don't give damn for any man Who don't give a damn for me. I despise the dyspeptic hunger. Whose stomach won't hold his grub. And because he is not as jolly as l, He's a pusillanimous dub. despise the man who coughs and
 spits;
 I loathe the man who'll complain At the turn of the Wheel of Fortune Which racks his body with pain. I've got the bugs and I'm proud of il; It makes no difference you see: It's the only great thing I have eyer
 done
 And it certainly looks good to me. What care for the lithcsome lad Who was once his mothers pride 9 His lonesome nights and suffering
 days
 Don't affect my calIous hide. For I am a Jolly Lunger
 And am welcome wherever l go. And the bugs that are eating my in = sides out
 Are the only pleasures I know. And the pain and the curse of the
 Great White Plague
 Are insignificant things; The paper has printed my letter you
 know
 Just think what joy that brings. l had no hopes that were blasted, My future had little in store: No children OF wife tO mourn me When I'm called to the farther shore. never have rushed into print before. For I didn't know what to say: Rlest he the bugs that are eating me. For they have shown me the way. For l am a Jolly Luneer
 And my life is filled with gIee: ! don't give a damn for any man Who don't gife a damn for me.

PUBLICITY CAMPAIGN
 THING MOST NEtDtD
1t Is Brought Forcibiy to the Atten- tion of Supervisor Hoghe.

Supervisor Hoghe is about to take steps to secure the better advertise. ment of this valley. The idea came to him in letter yesterday from Will liam Thumser a real estate man of Chicago who is now in Los Angeles.
 Mir. Hoghe met MT. Thumser in the course of his late eastern trip and he related to him at great length the ad- vantages of the Salt River valley for those who really want to enjoy life and make money. Mr. IIoghe had been doing the same thing wherever he happened to be and he had secured fl iluency and manner of telling his story which impressed MT. Thumser The latter gentleman was about to set out on a trip to the coast intend ing on his return to stop in Phoenix and verify what MT. Hoghe had told him.
 In his letter of yesterday. MT. Thum- Ser said he thought at the time that Mir. Hoghe was q booster. but since he had been in Los Angeles he had come to the conclusion that the Salt River valley had not really produced any boosters. Los Angeles he said was full
 
 were represented and every man from the east was assailed by them and in- formed of the glories of their respec- tive localities. But MT. Thumser had seen no representative from Phoenix: he had not heard q word there in favor of the Salt River valley He had gone tO the railroad offices and inquired for literature but there was none to be had. He had received some from MT. Hoghe when he was distributing il throughout the east and he wanted more to be sent to him at Los Angeles. Business, he said was running to waste there and again he urged MT. Hoghe to see if measures could not be taken by the people of Phoenix to divert some of it in this direction. He added that he would shortly be here himselr.
 Mir. Hoghe at once began work with members of the board of trade 10 see what could be done in the way of giv- ing the valley some healthy advertis- ing and he will bring the matter be- fore the board of supervisors at the
