NAVAL EXTRA NUMBERS
Congress Causes Injustice To Certain
Officers OF The Nsyy-ReIiei Sug.
gested

There are at present upon the ac-
tive list of the Navy sixteen captains
and eight commanders. formerly en-
gineer officers, who were transferred
to the line to perform engineering
duty only on shore only.
Last year at this time there were
ten captains and seventeen command
ers and there are now three less in
the total, the change in the numbers
in the two grades being due. of
course, to promotions. When Con-
gress adjourned this year there was
left pending before the House and
Senate naval committees bill
which aimed to make these former
engineer officers extra numbers and
originally it was intended they
should, in that status, have the priv
ilege of voluntary retirement.
The measure which provided for
that was withdrawn, leaving only
the bill which would make them ex-
ira numbers, without the ahance of
voluntary retirement they now pos
sess. 1t is probable the Navy De-
partment will seek to adjust this
difference in an equitable way, and
it may be that Recommendation will
be made to extend the privilege of
voluntary retirement TO the'' heroes. =
With the increase of the Navy
there is an insufficient number of
captains and commanders to perform
all the necessary duty to which Off
GERS of these grades are, by regula-
tion, eligible for assignment.
Through the operation of existing
law these former engineer officers
will eventually attain flag rank, but
will not be eligible to perform any
duty to which officers of that rank
are now assigned. This will cause a
shortage of officers of flag rank for
duty both afioat and ashore. The
situation would be greatly relieved
If the twenty -four engineer officers
were made additional numbers in
their grades. The effect of this leg
isIation would be to prevent officers
who are not eligible for sea duty
from occupying the authorized num-
bers intended By Congress to perform
sea duty and would give about one
years promotion to the junior COM
manders and lieutenant commanders
and thus bring officers into com
mand rank at an earlier age.
it will probably be recommended
that all officers who are carried as
additional numbers, be accorded the
privilege of voluntary retirement
given their brother officers under
Section s of the said act. This
would correct an existing injustice
to this class of officers, which must
have been unintentional or the part
of Congress.

NO BARTER OF TICKETS
Navy Athletic Association FOrbids Sell.
ing Navy Tickets

The Navy Athletic Association
will not stand for any barter of foot
bali tickets. To this end the associa-
tion has sent circulars offering to pay
$l5 for every ticket known to be sold,
and the return of same.
Notwithstanding this fact there
has been talk in some quarters of
buying and selling Navy football
tickets. Every ticket is registered
and II can be pretty well traced If
the one to whom the courtesy has
heen extended should sell it.
Unpleasantness is sure TO arise
from the sale of Navy tickets and to
avoid this, the possessors of same are
warned. Verbum sat sapienti.

FURTHER FACTS OF
 OSTRICH FARMING
Observations of Thomas w. Kemp in Discussing History of Ostrich
 Farming.

A few days ago The Republican printed a short story from facts fur nished by Harry Welch. secretary of the board of trade, concerning the ostrich industry in France. Thomas w Kemp, now residing in Mesa City. who has devoted the greater part of his life to the ostrich industry. read the article and has furnished some ad- ditional interesting facts, in the fol- lowing comment upon it:
 The information supplied in your issue of the 3rd inst by MT. Harry welch. the energetic secretary of the board of trade, in reference to the ostrich farm at Nice Is, am sure. of great interest to your readers. and per haps more especially to the ostrich
 farmers of the Salt river valley. The original birds on the farm in question came from California and were a troop sent over to an exhibition at Antwerp. Later they were exhibited at the Crys- tai Palace. London, England. where had the pleasure of seeing them. The company originally started as the Nice ostrich Farm company. but is now known as the South of France Ostrich Feather company. They have an inn portant store in Sloan street, London. and carry on mail order business of very considerable importance.
 "Ostrich farming is really no new thing. In the middle ages the native tribes of the province of Dara. in Nu- midia. raised ostriches for their feath- CTS. Today there are well-ordered farms in Egypt. Australia and New Zealand in addition to those in the United States and South Africa Aus tralia exports a small quantity of these goods. which are sold on the London feather sales. and New Zealand now produces all the plumes she requires for home consumption"

Possesses no more self-control than a rabbit If I thought I was injured in any degree By the smoking I do I should quit it this minute: The doctor has said smoke was poi son to me But that is all gammon: there's no logic in it.

If I thought I was smoking too much l should cease And never again have the least craving for if. If my pipe didn't bring me a sweet sense of peace I should have the good sense and the will to abhor it.

WHOLESALE LIQUOR LICENSES
 NOT ON THE INCREASE
County Commissioners Here Stated That There is But One More This Year-No Retail Business Under It.

We will have to pass rule to cut out these applications for wholesale liquor licenses" said County COmnIis- sioner Walter of New Haven when ap- plication had been made for another such license. They are coming in too fast"
 It seems that the last legislature passed a law restricting the number of retail licenses to one to each 500 inhabitants, but the law allowed the issuance of druggists and wholesale licenses indefinitely.
 The liquor men say the temperance people got a lemon on the law and all though the temperance people boasted of the good work they had done, soon after the law was passed, they are not plumlng themselves now much over it.
 Wholesale liquor licenses cost only $200 year, whereas retail licenses cost S450. In respect to many consid- erations there is an advantage to the dealer. But there is a restriction in the wholesale law limiting the sale to certain bulk quantities and not allow ing fntoxicants to be drunk on the premises But it is licensed place and whether they do sell below the quantity the law provides for is an- other story, as Kipling says.
 At any rate the New Haven com- missioners have been looking asl1ance at the recent applications for wholesale licenses and are getting ready to make rule to stop issuing more of them the same as they made a rule a few years ago to stop issuing any more retail licenses.
 The commissioners of New London county, who were in session here on Tuesday, said that it is a fact that wholesale licenses can be taken out for $20O, but there has been but one new one in the county this year and that is at New London Under the whole sale license no retail business can be done, and in order to combine the wholesale and retail business q license or G- sloners do not think that advantage has been taken of this wholesale li- cense and care would be taken in granting these licenses.
 The commissioners have granted a liquor license to John PIoupa of Wa ter street.
