THE PEOPLE Of YUMA
 WANT THE PRESIDENT
A Wide Movement to Secure a Place
 on the Itinerary.

The Commercial club of Yuma is leaving no~ string unpUlled to secure a visit by President Taft on his return from the Pacific coast. At the insti- gation of the club. P T. Robertson, an attorney of Yuma, has written Gov ernor Sloan urging him to use his in flUence with the gentlemen who have charge of the presidents itinerary, to include Yuma in it. At the same time, MT. Robertson wrote Surveyor General Ingalls,. asking him, as a resident of Yuma, to use his influence with the governor.
 But the Commercial club is also moving of its own account. It has sent an invitation to the president in person. The invitation was forwarded to Harry Brownstetter, who is now in Chicago, and he will present it to the president at Beverly about the middle of next week.
 The invitation is described as a work of art. It is iniaid with mother of-pearl on an ironwOod slab. enclosed in an ironwood case ornamented with inlaid pieces of hardwood.
 Of course, pending favorable action on the invitation, no program has been prepared by the citizens of Yuma for the entertainment of the president. but if they can have their way about it they will take him for a view of the Laguna dam and for a drive about that fertile valley.

His commission has not yet been received but it will arrive within a few days as it has been designated that he shall enter upon his duties on Sep tember l.
 standing about this. The dispatches have variously stated that the ap- pointment would become effective on September l and September 30. but the official information he has re- ceived designates September l.
 Asked about what changes would be made in the office. MT Overlook said he was not yet prepared to say, but he spoke of one change that would not be made. Don N. Willetts, the present chief deputy of the office will be retained. Mir. Willetts is not only a competent official, familiar with the business of the office but he has been a consistent and loyal re- publican. s'~
 The appointment of Mir. Overlook itself was d recognition of good re- publicanism. He has been a resident of the territory for twenty-seven years, all the time d resident of Co.,
 Il, ~fh bed democratic period until the re- publicans gained a foothold in 1t. He has been a member of every re- publican convention that has been held there for twenty-five years and always contributed liberally to the cause when he had not as much money as he has now when he is regarded as millionaire.
 Mir. Overlook returned south last night.

DR. ]. f. PLATH WILL
 BUILD HOME IN LOS OL|VOS
Another New Resident in This Pretty
 Addition will be Mrs. A. N. Renau

Fall building operations in Phoenix have already begun, although the summer is still with us. There are a number of new homes that are now being rushed for occupation in the fall and others who have just made purchases of home sites are busy with architects plans
 One of the finest residences to be built in Los Olives was started Mon day. It will be the home of Dr. O.. E. Plath. Dr. Plath purchased a lot at the corner of Palm Lane and Beuna avenue from the Dwight B. Heard real estate company. It con tains five acres, and is as beautifully situated as any residence district in or near Phoenix. Dr. Plath will erect a magnificent home on this tract, a home that will hardly be surpassed in comfort and elegance by any of those in that district. It will cost $7,OOO. Harvey Patton has the contract for building it and the foundation work is now underway.
 Another home that is soon to be built in Los Olives and which will also be on Palm Lane is that of Mrs. Amelia N. Renau. Mrs. Renau has a two and a, half acre tract pur- chased recently from the Heard com pany. Her house will cost in the neighborhood of $4,000. It will be the fourth houee to be built on Palm lane winch is one of the cross streets of Los Olives. It will be next to the Winslow residence.
 It is announced that in the fall the five acre tracts into which Los Olives is how subdivided, will be cut into two and a half acre lots. This change will be effected by running two new streets parallel with Palm lane. The streets will have the same stone finish and improvements as that thoroughfare. They will run from Central avenue to. the Cave Creek road.

WEDDING IN SECRET
 BUT DECIDED ID TELL
Enoch Robart and Miss BurIey Isley
 Were Married Saturday.

Cupid's ways are singular ways. This fact was again demonstrated yesterday when Miss Burley Isley and EnOch Robart announced to the young brides mother, yesterday fore noon, that they had been married Saturday night and had kept the se- cret hidden ever since. principally be- cause of the illness of the girls mother.
 Although it was known that the young people are of age and know to each other, anything like serious ness had not been contemplated by the parents of either. Both of the young people ore of age and know their own minds.
 Though neither will admit it, the parents presume that the young peO- pie did the stunt on a dare. and to see how long it could be kept a secret Naturally the strain became too great and, so yesterday morning, hand in hand the two happy newly weds shamefacedly told their story to the folks of the girl, and after re- ceiving the blessings of both parents, took a train for Prescott where they will spend a few days on a honey moon.
 A supper was prepared at Bennitts' Glendale lodging house for the young people, after their marriage Saturday night.
 The young people not only have the best wishes of a host of friends, but the welcoming hand of every one in the city.
 They will soon return to Phoenix where MT. Robart will at once re- Sume his work.

The Wage Farmers Need Of
the Ballot
By MAUD YOUNGER

Il HE wage earning woman needs the ballot be-
cause her every gain in the past has come
through her effort, and every future victory
she must win for herself
She has two means through which to work, the
union and the ballot
The union is the more effective In organization

surer basis for fair conditions than the goodwill of

OF matrimony they look upon work temporary
affair They do not seek to better their craft.
They do realize the large percentage OF
married women who inevitably swept back into
the channels of industry.
1t is stated than in New York city $4,000 women
support their husbands. One-third OF all young
women in this country are engaged III industry

Women entered industrial life from necessity.
Forced to share with the hard work of the
world, they more than any other women-more
than any manned the ballots protection. wo-
mans work determines her health, life, home and
children She must work long hours at
night Her place of work must be sanitary, with
protection for life and limb Working women are
largely the mothers of the Their health con-
Germs the whole community. Yet today, when the
development OF business seems of greater import
than the development of men, fair conditions
for working rest solely upon their own
power to secure and maintain them
