PHOENIX CHAUTAuQuA
TERMINATED YESTERDAY
Some Boquets and Some Criticism OF
the Bill of Fare

The farewell program Of the Phoe-
nix Chautauqua was Nicola. who per-
formed more of his clever tricks of
magic last night. II was his last
appearance in this part of the world
before leaving on his tour of the
globe He was greeted with a very
fair attendance for last nights per-
Torrance.
The entertainments given by the
Associated Chautauquas revealed one
thing at least, and that is that Arl-
iona appreciates that sort OF thing'
The aggregate attendance at all OF
the lectures and entertainments must
have been enormous; and now that
the series is over it should he said
that in general, the lectures were
up to the mark expected. There
were one or two perhaps. that might
he termed filters but they were off
set by the brilliant oratorical efforts
of Colonel Bryan, Folk and Buechtel'
Those who purchased season tickets
could hardly complain of not getting
the value of the price paid. Railroad
fares are higher in the southwest
than they are i'm the east and conse-
quently the management of the assoc
citation had to cut a rather fine mar
gin for his profits on the series OF
Chautauquas through Texas, New
Mexico and Arizona. All things con-
sidered. Mr.. Stewart is to be COM
plimented on the class Of entertain
ment he delivered.
And now that the bouquets and vio-
lets have been passed around, there

Mr.. Packard's other ranch, or rather
the other 800 acres of this ranch. Mr..
Hirst said yesterday that he did not
believe il would go begging more than
a few days. or a month at the out
side. 1t is Mr.. Packard's purpose to
quit the stock business and devote
himself exclusively to his banking in

PACKARD DESERTS
RANCH FOR BANK

G. T. Hirst, who Tor the Dwight b.
Heard Real Estate company closed
up the deal by which r. \. Packard
sold one-half of his south side ranch
on Tuesday To a. J. Peters and
George Taylor. gave out further de-
tails of the transaction yesterday. He
said that the selling price of the 800
acres was practically $4,000, but that
some other property was sold with
the ranch that makes the total price
very nearly $4,000. The ranch, which
is about two and a half miles south
east of Tempe, is one of the finest in
the valley, and in some respects is the
best improved. y large horse barn
where Mr.. Packard has kept his fine
horses was erected at a cost of
about $4,000. and is undoubtedly the
finest barn in Arizona 'Other build
ings on the ranch are a residence, a
house for the employees and an office
and bunk houses. The ranch is
fenced and cross-fenced with WOW
en- wire and is in a high state Of
cultivation.
Messrs. Peters and Taylor, how
ever. have bought none of the ranch
stock. They expect to confine them
selves strictly to ranching. to the hay
and grain business chiefly. that
having been their speciality for years.
They have also rented the Franken-
burg ranch adjoining and will oper-
ate both of the big farms together.
The sale is not only one of the larg-
est ever made here, but the fact f
the property being bought by home
people. and the purpose for which it
is to be used. makes il a particular
" important one. Some people have
acquired the idea that the days of
profit taking in hay and grain in this
valley are over. A. J. Peters has a
different idea, and he has been deal
ing in those commodities here for a
quarter of a century. Some people
think land is too high in this valley.
but Mr. Peters thinks differently, and
he has lived here since the time when
he could have had all the land he
wanted at five or ten dollars an acre.
Another feature Of the deal is that
it is a cash transaction. A large
payment was made in cash on Tues
day. the rest to be paid as soon as
the papers were ready for transfer.
and Mr. Packard wired yesterday
that he will be here today with the
papers ready to complete the transac-
ton.

The Worlds Naval Burden

japanese statesman, Baron Den
thus expressed himself to a news agen-
cy few days ago:
The Panama Canal is to be COM
pletely constructed by 1920, and Amer
lea has undertaken the building OF
three large men Of war which are each
equipped with twelve of the new IL
inch guns and will be 10000 in ton
mage. Japan cannot be content with
her present men-of-war of the old
dreadnOught style; on the contrary
she has to build more powerful navy
consisting of large men-Of-war of the
latest style. All international ques-
tions have their solution depending
upon the real strength of the dispu-
ting powers; thus a power with full
strength can overcome another power
that may not be equipped with such
full strength when both are involved
in dispute Japan must not expert
ence again such a humiliation caused
upon her by the interference of the
three powers after her war with
China"
When the japanese government
asks for increased appropriations for
warships, it points to the naval pro-
gram of the United States our con-
gress is urged to provide more and
bigger warships. because Japan, and
Germany, are feverishly increasing
their navies. The German people,
staggering under the burden of war
taxes in a time of peace, are told to
cheer up; that the sacrifice is de-
manded of them in order that the faith
erland may have a navy equal to the
navies of the other powers. The Brit
ish government is put to its wits end
to find new methods of taxation, in or
der that England may have a more
powerful navy-because Germany is
building a navy that will soon take the
first rank. French tax payers are told
that their naval burden is necessary,
because of the menace of Germany.
Sober statesmen in all countries are
beginning to ask what the logical end
must be. but they answer in the same
breath-the end will be universal
bankruptcy within a few years, wheth-
er the world has peace or war The only
alternative is an international linn
itation of ornaments, and that solu-
ton is out of the question so long as
Germany refuses to listen to the pro-
posal
The improvement in battleship con-
struction has been such that the mag
nificent fleet sent around the world by
President Roosevelt is already pro-
nounced so obsolete by experts, when
compared with the type Of dread
nought developed by England at thS
close of the Russo japanese war,
that practically all but our very
newest ships are fit only for the
scrap heap. And as Baron Den sug-
gests in the foregoing quotation the
dreadnought itself is becoming obso-
lete. 1t is to be succeeded by ships
of 10000 tonnage, each carrying twelve
14-inch guns. Such ships can, without
danger TO themselves, sink the exist
ing navies of the world
The projected battleships may prove
10 be the limit in design, but there
is no limit to the number which may
be constructed by each government
except the limitation imposed by an
empty treasury.
Americans may console themselves
by rejecting that Uncle Sans purse is
the longest, but what commentary it
is on our civilization that the world
is facing bankruptcy in preparation
for war.

The Cheerful Deserter

That orthodox democratic organ, the
Tucson star, delivers itself of this
proclamation:
IF the Democratic party tolerates
democratic deserters' it will have no
more chance in 1910 and 1912 than a
snowfall in Hades or a hot waffle in
the knapsack of DR.. Cook"
But how is the party to prevent de-
sertions. 1t is only practicable to
punish deserters after they are cap
tured, and we have yet to hear of
a deserter wishing to return to the
