Jack Johnson threatens to come 10 Phoenix as an attraction at the terri torial fair. It is doubtless true that the presence of the Hon. MT. Johnson would bring to Phoenix many people who would not come so far to see President Taft, but the crowd which would flock to see Johnson would be creditable neither to the fair nor to the territory. The fair can get along without Mistah Johnsing.

THE RAILROAD TO BUCKEYE.

We may congratulate the people of Buckeye on their prospect of securing a railroad. Of course, it is yet only a prospect. but a good one, the best they have ever had. Our congratu- lations extend also to Glendale on the prospect of becoming the terminus. and. to Phoenix. which would be brought into direct communication with the Buckeye region. as if it. itself. were to be. the northeastern terminus.
 It can not be said that plans for the construction of Glendale Buck eye railroad have taken definite shape But the fact that President F. M. Murphy of the s. F., P. & P. favorably considers such a project. and has been willing to give express sion to his views. must be regarded as a hopeful sign. MT. Murphy has done much railroad building in this territory within the last twenty years and it is characteristic of his opera tions that there has been scant pre- liminary talking. The people of this valley have observed that when he has begun speaking of a project it has not been long before the project has become a fact
 That the road should be built from Glendale rather than from Phoenix. would be to bring the rich Buckeye country nearer to the beet sugar fac tory. the one great industrial enter prise of the valley. from which it is completely cut off
 But so far as Phoenix is concerned it would be just the same as if the road should start from this city. and, as a matter of fact. if one consults a map of the county. he will find that as railroads run, Glendale is not so far off of a line from Phoenix to Buckeye.

A correspondent of the Los Angeles Times. writing from LaJolla, makes a curious mistake regarding the mar ried life of Anna Held. whom he has confounded with another actress. the wife of MT. Max Heinrichs, father of MT. Karl Heinrichs, of this city. Ac- cording to the understanding of the correspondent, Miss Held has a cot tage, the Green Dragon, at LaJolla. The correspondent errs also in de scribing her as of German birth. The fact is. Miss Held was married less than two years ago to F. Zeigfeld Jr. of Chicago, the well known theatrical manager. She was born in Paris, France, and not in Germany. Her
