POSTAGE
 |S ID BE CHEAPER
The Rome Agreement Will Be Eff fective October l, when Foreign Rates Will Be Cut in Two-''Reply Cou- pons' to Be Furnished Patrons.

Postage on letters to and from for eign countries is to be cut just in half, according to the Universal Postal con vention agreement, signed in Rome, on May 26, 1906. This new rate is to take effect among all these countries in the combine on the first day of October of this year.
 According to the old postage rate to foreign lands, letters cost ten cents an ounce. However, under the change let ters can be sent for five cents for the first ounce and three cents for each ad- ditional ounce. Postage upon all arti- cles other than letters must be prepaid at least in part. Double the amount of the deficiency is to be collectible upon delivery of the articles if Ills not paid
 In connection with this lowering on the foreign rate, the convention pro vides for ''reply coupon, which may be purchased in any of the countries. The person presenting it will be enti- tied to receive without charge a postage stamp of that country equal in value to five-cent United States stamp. By this arrangement, person in the Unit ed States can furnish his correspondent in any of the foreign countries named with postage stamp with which to reply to his letter.
 This convenience will be greatly ap- preciated, as will also the change in rate. The changes will largely increase the number of foreign letters
 About twenty-five nations are in the agreement.

WINTER GARDENS
 NEW MESA FAD
Thirty Farmers Putting in Small Plats to Cabbages Onions and other Hardy Vegetables-Big Profit of the Canta- loupe Growers.

From present indications there will be no necessity for Mesa people to eat imported vegetables during the coming year. A Mesa correspondent to the Arizona Republican says:
 "Some thirty-odd different parties are putting in cabage, onions and other vegetables which can be grown during the winter months. From two to ten acres to the individual is the average. which means careful farming and the best results from the ground cultivated Vegetable growing has been neglected here to a great extent in the past, al though those who have followed it have made good money. The present plan is to form truck growers association in order to be able to handle the product in carload lots. By this means the Melon Growers association has been able to make a success of the cantaloupe industry. This season, just closed, the melon growers realized over $60,000 from l60 carloads of cantaloupes ship ped to one firm of distributors. The truck growers have offers from reliable commission men to receive and handle every carload that can be produced on the Mesa, paying a good price f. O. b. Mesa. This arrangement removes the element of chance from the enterpris, and places truck growing where it be- longs, as a legitimate and profitable business. '

day that Judge Landis, if he chooses, can undoubtedly proceed to the trial of any indictment the special grand jury may return. Even should the depart. ment check the district attorney from prosecuting, the judge could find way to secure a prosecuting attorney. The president, however, can annul any yer diet of the federal jury or sentence of n judge by exercising his pardoning pow. CT. 1t IS said that possibly the president could pardon the railroads if indicted before the case was brought to trial
 A few weeks ago the administration was in the gayest of moods because Judge Landis had "soaked" the Stand ard Oil company with fine of $29, ,0UO, 900, although Mir. Bonaparte was not very enthusiastic because the penalty was so severe. The big fine has not been received as well by the country as some administration supporters would like, and there are wry faces because Judge Landis, whose life tenure cannot be disturbed except by his own miscon- duet, is not obedient to the wishes of the president, who appointed him.

PUTS PRESIDENT
 IN THE NINE H0LE
Judge Landis Seems Disposed to Ig- nore the Immunity Bath and Prose cute the Alton-The President May Resort to the Pardoning Power.

WASHINGTON, D. C., September II. President Roosevelt may have fight ing judge on his hands and no weapon to fight him with except the pardoning power. Such a prospect was discussed yesterday at the department of justice, where there is great impatienee because District Judge Landis seems inclined to press the rebate cases against the Chi cago X Alton railroad, without regard 10 the immunity bath.
 Department officials fear the effect of the judge s attitude upon other corpora tions with whom the government may have to deal hereafter. Government promises of immunity may not be res pected if the Alton cases are brought to trial. Two telegrams were sent yes terday to Attorney General Bonaparte at Leuox, requesting authority to make public his letter to District Attorney Simms, but no reply had been received last evening when the department had closed.

Globe to Become Great City Despite Its
 Obstructing Mossbacks

The city of Globe is unfortunate in having in her midst non-progressive element who would prefer to again cross the plains in an OK cart rather than in a Pullman. The Twentieth century gait makes them dizzy. A few of these old fossils are now endeavoring to discover technicality whereby Globe may be forced to disineorporate. Every com munity has them, but fortunately their mouthings amount to but little. Globe is destined to be great city. Those who would obstruct her onward march will have opportunity to marvel at the transformations and will ask themselves how Such greatness came about without their assistance or approval.-Tomb stone Prospector.

Bouquet for McCarty

Professor Lawrence McCarty is to produce "Damon and Pythias" in Globe on the 11th inst. Speaking from personal observation, the Prospector can assure the brethren of Globe who par ticipate in the presentation of "Da- mon and Pythias" and the good people who attend the play, that they will have no cause to regret it. Professor Me Carty is an actor of the old school, and will give the Globe people show ex- celled by no professional aggregation on the road today. Were it not for the great distance, many of Professor Me Carty's Tombstone friends would go to Globe to again witness the superb rem dition. As it is, they can only hope that a crowded house may reward his exertions.- Tombstone Prospector.

ALL OVER THE TERRITORY

'A remarkable weed has appeared in the southern part of the county fol lowing the recent rains, and although it is apparently erowding out the grass, the cattle thrive on it and they have never been in better shape" remarked Colin Cameron, who had just returned from the Santa Rita mountains, where he has summer home, says the Tomb stone Prospeetor. Mir. Cameron stated further that the new weed which has appeared and which is mys- tery to the cattlemen, is from six inches to one foot in height and looks like a miniature tree.

A prosperous farmer of the artesian belt informed the Stafford Journal this week that he had two and a quarter acres of ground planted to sweet pota- toes. From this "patch" he expects to dig about twenty-four tons of sweet potatoes. The market price of this commodity is 3 cents per pound on the average, which means that the gross yield will bring the grower LAO, or a return of $64O per acre. Land that yields such profit is almost invaluable.

STOCK MARKET UP N AIR
ANOTHER VIOLENT SLUMP IN
PRICES WITHOUT NEWS TO
ACCOUNT ron IT.

New York, March 27.-There was a
violent slump in prices on the stock
exchange again yesterday, accompa-
MED by excited trading, but without
news to account for it other than de-
cline In the metal market in London
and higher rates for call money. The
monetary situation Gid not seem to at
tract much attention, however, and ae-
cordtng to brokers and members OF
banking firms there was nothing to ex-
plain the rapid melting away of prices
except that holders of stocks wanted
to sell them, apparently without re-
gard to the prices they got for their
shares. American Smelling was one
of the weakest features, falling an ex-
treme Ii Ia points, but the United
States Steel corporation shares and
the railroads also made wide declines.
1t was notable that throughout the day
there was an entire absence of the die
turbing rumors of a fortnight ago to
the effect that Important failures were
impending. Bankers here generally
said that no one was in difficulties;
that brokerage houses had protected
themselves with ample margins, and
whatever might be the underlying
cause Of the recent precipitate de-
clines in market quotations they did
not believe that it was fear of any one
failing to meet his liabilities.

Bucharest, March 27.-The situation
arising from the agrarian revolt has
become SO serious that the Roumanian
parliament is considering the advisa-
bility Of investing the government
with extraordinary powers.
Throughout most of the rural dis
tricts pillage and arson are running
riot, robber bands are growing holder,
fears of revolts are springing up to
lead the masses in their excuses and
bloodshed is common.
Killed by Hundreds.
Many towns are in danger of assault
by the rioting peasantry and troops at
these points are not In most cases suf-
ficiently numerous to defend the COM
munities.
Two hundred peasants were killed at
one place yesterday by volleys fired by
the soldiers, and heavy losses similar
in nature are reported from various
points.
The Roumanian government consid-
ers the trouble in Moldavia and Wal
lachia to be result of similar disturb
ance in the adjacent provinces OF Rus

ter.
Plundering on Large Scale.
The plundering continues on large
scale in the districts of Roman, PUMA
Jassay and Botosahni. The peasants
are setting fire. to everything within
reach, but they flee on the appearance

That the revolted peasants are at
least temporarily beyond the control

amply evidenced by the stories OF Pill
