Villa Vicosa, Portugal, Feb 14.-The
visit of King Alfonso of Spain to King
Manuel came to a close this afternoon.
King Alfonso left for Madrid on spe-
clal train. The only incident to mar the
pleasant stay was the arrest by the po-
lice of two suspects. However, the au-
thorities declare that this was merely
precautionary and that no importance
attaches to it.
Before his departure King Alfonso re-

XanderbiIt,s Great Trick.

The name of Vanderbilt is one of the greatest in the role Of financial giants that the world has ever seen. The "COmmodOre," who founded the great house, a man of surpassing power in commerce, must have been, one would imagine. a gentleman with a well balanced mind and, at the height of his success, a man of su- preme dignity. Gould is another name to cOnjure with in finance. The founder of that gigantic fortune. one would think, must have been such another as the founder of the Wander bilt - dignified. unimaginative. a pill lar Of the great commercial world. Yet nothing could better illustrate the lighter side of finance than a scene enacted between these two giants, which I will now describe.
 One night Vanderbilt and Gould met on most important business in the formers parlOr, when both were in the zenith of their fame In the eyes of the public they were bitter enemies, and matters had come to a. climax. No sooner had the great ri rivals exchanged courtesies and start cd their private conversation on question in relation to which many millians were at stake, than the An

Now, I have a right to assume that the manager of the library has selected. ordered and paid for The Daily Republican as he had to the others Thus he classed The Republican as metropolitan and Phoe- nix as a metropolis; and the library manager knows his job.
 For a few days, or until I got my own copy of The Republican, 1 shared the library copy with another old veteran and Arizonian-Harry s. Me Kinney. who is a pioneer of pioneers. for he came to Arizona nearly forty years ago, and since then must be known to all the noted mining camps of the territory as an expert mining and mill man. Mir. Mac deserves the commiseration of all who ever knew him well, for his yet strong. agile mind is confined in a body ir- remediably crippled by one hip dis located several months ago by. an accident He feels his condition too keenly; frets over it too much, for mentally he is virile and active as in his. prime. He spends hours of every day in the library. He is a gentle man, a scholar and judge of good lit erature. for he reads such works as these only: Meditation sOf Marcus Aurelius, Roosevelt. the Amicitia ct de Lenectute. Cicero on the Strenu- ous Life. and War of 1912, Harvey D. Lees Pastorals. Georgico and Aeneid, Virgil on Shoeing Mules. George A. Mintz' Anabasis and Calven. on Stud horse Poker. He may jump me for thus mentioning him, for his modesty is equal to his ability and my cheek. My special purpose in this extended mention is to disclose him to many friends unaWares of where he is now, so that they may write him and cheer him up His only hope is to attain ere long to such repairing as may enable him to leave this place and get a job of bookkeeping in Arizona.

 ed and no key in it. This,'' continues an authentic account of the historic scene, increased his alarm, and he be- came greatly agitated. Vanderbilt lay limp and mOtionless.

wood and cottonwood trees, and in
 easy reach as pure water as ever
 passed human lips. And all up the
 creek, at and past the Phoenix mine l to Ash Grove, are fine camping sites
 with pure water at hand and yet
 clearer air. The altitude at the station is about 1000 feet above sea level and the rise Is rapid until an elevation of over 5000 feet is reached at Ash Grove. Furthermore, the southwest winds often bear the modified Gulf of California breeze over that mountain region. the same passing above Phoe
 nix. The dry atmosphere is the spe- cial beneficence; the thorns of the saguaros and chollas draw the mois- cure of heavy summer storms out of the air as the points of lightning rods the electricity from overhanging clouds. Leave the thermometer at home. One can sit or be in the shade and easily endure a temperature of 110 degrees or more, but if the ther- mometer is consulted imagination gets in it's work I have noticed a crowd of men happy and comfortable in the shade when the mercury stood at 115 degrees until someone glanced at my thermometer, and then even such old timers as Charley Philes lifted up howls and Help Lord" Don't read MT.

 However, if a family is nervous as to hydrophobia skunks and rattlers,

i of six figures of her annual gain? Now. since the Roosevelt dam is practically completed. and dearth of 1 irrigating water need not any more be expected, if Phoenix conserves
 her annual gains she can. within five years, attain to population of at least 100, ,000. Is such a consumma- tion possible if during all the coming
 five years she blows in at Los Angeles
 the greater part of six figures? I will
 not answer this question; I put it to
 the moneyed men and elite of your
 city. As I walked through the busi-
 ness streets of Los Angeles. felt that
 trod on Phoenix dollars glued to
 her pavements and which ought to
 have been left circulating through
 MaricOpa county
 But the worn out wife and jaded
 school children of a family will need release from the steam heated atmOs- phere of your mid summers. But when such families fix themselves for the summer in the rooms of hotels or lodging houses of Los Angeles, or of the beach towns, it seems to me
 that they leap out of a Phoenix skillet into steam heated air, and too often the mitigating sea breeze is laden with coughs and colds for Arizonians and all that an enormous price.
 Now, in perfect good faith, rec ommend. in place of this region the mountain regions north of Phoenix in which perfect relief can be had at an expense of about one cent to the dollar or more which these sea coast resorts exact of rich Phoenicians. But if a wealthy family must spend lav- ishly, 1t can go to the Hot Springs on Castle Creek, where there are ho- tel accommodations, with hotel, ac- cessories, tent houses and cottages, and in an absolutely dry atmosphere which surely is far more beneficial than any sea breeze. There also are fountains of as pure water as there is on earth. As to the medicinal waters of the place, I say nothing. because I know nothing. There is nothing lacking there for reasonable comfort and the prices demanded are reasonable, and within the means of the burgeoise, as well as of the rich. That resort Is practically in Mari copa county and it's money drifts back to the markets and banks of Phoenix.
 In such localities as Cave Creek (which I mention at length because it is the best on earth( the poor can make a dollar afford more com fort than anywhere else, and the rich also can procure for their greater means whatsoever they wish at nominal expense: and to them as to the poor. the regions pure fountain water and perfectly dry air are free. There are at Houck's Station a well stocked store. d postoffice with a tri- weekly mail route and a stage route1 that can as often carry back and forth passengers, and take up any luxury or extra ordered.

state that Maricopa county in its va | rying attitudes, affords every month of the year more perfect comfort
 than any other such area on earth. | Since early times the press of Phoe-
 nix has so proclaimed to the world,
 but the summer exodus of the Phoe-
 nix elite to this coast has been a
 most unfortunate contradiction. When sooner or later I come to pass my
 card in to St Peter. under my name

 I concede that the plentiful irriga-
 tion of the valley around Phoenix has
 put into that atmosphere a moisture
 which makes the high temperature of midsummer very hard to endure and insufferable to some wives, mothers, young women and children
 I hesitate to question the right of rich families who elsewhere have enc joyed in summer a sea breeze to spend their money how, where, or to what extent they wish. Really, l do not intend to criticise, advise or con- demn, but to suggest to Phoenix business men some things they should hereafter most seriously consider. Re member that long ago Phoenix busi- ness men combined in compact to make reasonable sacrifices to insure the rapid growth of their city, and to avoid extravagant expenditure abroad They should also realize that to some extent they must reckon with the ranchers of the valley, the values of whose lands can advancei only as Phoenix grows in wealth and population, and with the miners and herdsmen of the mountains who have long desired the board of trade to- take a greater interest in their enter prises. From now on for five years the dollars of annual gain should be held circulating within Maricopa county, for seldom does a dollar spent in Los Angeles or on the coast any where, ever find its may back. There is a tide in the affairs of such cities as Phoenix, when closeness and ap- parent consciousness must obtain to lav LID resources against such calami- ties as fires. or worse yet, hard times.
 A year or more ago I read eitheU in The Republican or in paper of Los Angeles, q thing the Times) an esti- mate of the amount which AriZonians spend every summer in Los Angeles and beach tours. The amount was denominated by six figures and the left hand one a high one Now cer- tainly three-fourths of that enormous sum came out of Phoenix, and how long can she stand such depletions?
 Next, consider two or three follow ing propositions. Recently congress gave it out that Arizona standing alone ought to be admitted at once; under present conditions that can not be unless Arizona carries in also New Mexico on her back. Now, Phoenix is the backbone of Arizona and it takes so much money to stiffen a 1, backbone. Can Phoenix, at | any time this winter come to the | scratch after blowing in three-fourths |
