ship for Arizona.

You may depend upon me In ms
humble capacity, whether as a con
gresham or as a private citizen, to
exert every influence can to help yot
in securing statehood. to which you
are so eminently entitled.
Pearl harbor is the pivot of the
world. which faces the greatest crisis
since the history of civilization began.
and whoever controls il will control
the world. Pearl harbor is in Ameri
can territory and in its vicinity are
1000 white men OF all nations, while
in the same territory there are 100, 900
japanese II the yellow men secure
control of Pearl harbor they will not
only dominate the Pacific and our
western coast line. but they will dom

1t was the first OF these quotations
with which Capt. Richard p Hobson,
in his Introductory remarks at the
Central Methodist church last night,
ELECTED the initial applause OF the vast
audience that greeted him The testi-
monial was unanimous. but no more
sincere than the statement that in
duced it, for Captain Hobson has, be-
yond question. been greatly impressed
with what he has seen during the few
hours he has been in Phoenix. He
spoke of his pleasure at being per-
mitted to take this side excursion from
the main lines of railroad and to note
the wonderful progress that Arizona
has made since his former visit six
years ago. Reaching here yesterday
afternoon he listened to the latter part
of Governor Folks lecture, after which
both the governor and the captain
were taken for an automobile ride by
George Purdy Bullard. 1t was not a
long one to be sre. only to the Indian
school and back via Central avenue,
but it was enough for the visitors to
get a glimpse Of life in this valley as
it may be lived by people who care.
Returning from the ride the captain
exclaimed, Your country homes and
suburban residences would do credit
to any city"
The second quotation is the captains
word of warning to the American peo-
pie of the imminent peril in which
stands not only the nation, but the
supremacy of the white race on earth.
1t is the climax of a long recital in
which the whole history of the growth
of civilization is hastily reviewed.

tions have been brought about and
making clear from the speakers stand

his !colors and painted a startling
canvas he proceeded to tell how inn
pending danger may be forestalled, and
that, of course, is by the building of
an American navy that shall dominate
the western sea, asswell as to strength

peace in eastern waters

Boston, Sept. 26.-The definite de-

Quebec's position is quite simple.

leading part. The effort has been
crowned with success, and means real
reform that the country will applaud
Mr.. Foster is working hard to secure
the passage OF his bill establishing low
parcels postage rate limited to rural
routes and the delivery Offices from which
they emanate. There is at present an
evident injustice, which Mr.. Foster in a
speech the other day clearly pointed out
by the following Illustration
"Today one in San Francisco can send
through the mail a package weighing
four pounds to any patron on the rural
routes emanating from my postotfice in
Burlington for "a cents. But il desire
to send the same package weighing four
pounds to the same patron on the same
route emanating from the same postofi1ce
in Burlington, where the package will be
carried three miles instead of 5000
miles, have to pay the same "a cents. l
can send the same package to London for
As cents.
Mr.. Foster contends that a low parcels
rate good only for local patrons would be
q tlOhSy III bhC ROnNoA
to say nothing Of the tremendous conven-
fence OF the public served by it. Instead
of subjecting the country merchants to
the ruinoUs competition Of the mail order
houses, it would give them an advantage
over such houses, with no loss to their
customers.
Mr.. Foster has to contend, however,
with long established rule Of the postal
service-to which there are few excep-
tions-prescribing the same rate for the
"short haul'' Of mail matter as for the
''long haul rule that can only be jus
titled on the ground Of a uniform charge
and saving in trouble. He also has tC
meet the objection that the postal servic'
should not discriminate between patrons
in any way, and that such q change Al
proposed, with the extra labor involved t.
carriers, might lead to a large increase il
the salary roll, with little, il any, adder
revenues to meet it.
Mr.. Foster is making game fight TO
his bill, and it has strong backing.

There is some kick because the last leg
islature restricted the sales of second and
seventh class licenses so as to cut out the
express delivery adjunct. The objection
is based on the fact that the licensees,
having paid for the right to sell during
the current year under the rules prevail
ing at its beginning, are not treated fair
ly by a curtailment of those rights before
the close of the year, with no rebate in
the license fee. 1t is conceded that there
would be no ground for complaint had
the new act taken effect May /, 1909,
when the old licenses expire.

Burlington and Rutland have a cute
scheme for circumventing the new law
whereby all the liquor license fees are
turned over to the state, instead of half of
them as formerly. The local license COM
missioners have the fixing OF the license
fees, to a certain extent. 1t is proposed
that they name the minimum amounts, as
the state fees, and that then the city add
another license charge under its charter
right to impose such fees on places OF
public resort and amusement. Shrewd
folks live in those cities. and they don't
like to see a big bud of real hard money
walk out OF town for good.
