Il was announced at Central High
School this morning that a captain
for the 1911 baseball nine had not
been elected, the report that Pitcher
Boteler had been chosen to the con-
trary notwithstanding.
Although the man who pitched the
team to victory in the high school
championship series, as well as in
many other notable battles, is said to
be the only logical candidate, the
choice has not been made. The cleo
ton will be held within the next few
days, possibly tomorrow, following
the exercises in honor of the track
team, which again captured the cham
piOnship among the high schools.
The championship cup, as well as
that won in the dual meet with Epis-
copal High School early last May, will
be turned over to the school at this
time. 'Cs" will be presented to the
members Of the team who have won
ten points during the past season. 1t

eRouNpCEss FEARS.

There is great good sense in the time ly warning issued by Henry c. Prick against the excited imagination and groundless fears" which have caused a hesitation in the business activities of this country It would be unfortu- nate in the extreme if the American people generally should allow them selves to be frightened by -imaginery evils into refusing to go ahead and en- - joy the prosperity which is really theirs. as they were two years ago. It turned out then that the industrial depression which extended like d miasma over the country was due to a state of mind. a realization of the old proverb. Tt is the troubles that never happen that chiefly make men wretched." The country is on sound basis of prosperity. The harvests have been great and they have sold at good prices. The products of the earth have been from time immemorial the real basis of peoples prosperity. No great calamity could possibly came to nation which furnishes the world with it's meat and bread. as the Amer ican people are doing and have been doing for years.
 While the fears of business disaster arc largely imaginary. there is no doubt that they have been mostly due to the sensational rawlings of a large section of the American press. Many newspapers have gained large circu- lation among the timid and credulous by persistently attacking what they are pleased to call the special inter ests." They have constructed an imag- [ mary flock of windmills., called the privileged few" and like Don Quix ote they charge them in every issue with lance at full tilt These persist ent attempts to arouse class prejudice and to inspire the belief that d few rich men are controlling the govern mcnt for their own benefit have un- doubtedly done more to arouse a spirit of unrest and discontent among the people than any other causes. The fact is. the American government is freer from control by special interests. and the American people enjoy greater measure of liberty in speech and ac- tiOn. in their social and business ac- tiyities. than is known anywhere else in the world. Every man is equal be- fore the law in this blessed land Of freedom. The law is enforced in our courts. state and federal. without re- gard to persons or property. The high est is treated exactly as the humblest in the dispensing of justice. The hon esty and impartiality of our courts is the prOudest boast of an American citizen. The same fact applies to our governments state and national. They arc chosen by the direct vote of the people and the chosen officials do their duty before the eyes of their constituents. openly and plainly. with out partiality or favoritism. In no state in the union can money buy favors from a governor or a judge. If it were otherwise, the guilty official would be summarily driven from his office by the force of outraged public sentiment

BULLARD WAS NOT
 ONE OF THE sPEEDERs IT WAS HIS CAR ONCE BUT HE SOLD IT TO ANOTHER MAN. Alleged "Speeders" Were Notified of Their Arrest Through the Even- ing Papers, But Only One
 Appeared.

It was stated in the afternoon papers yesterday that a number of motorists, some eight in all, had been caught speeding by the city police and were cited to appear before Judge Thomas Yesterday afternoon. The list was headed by George Purdy Bullard. presi- dent of the Maricopa. County Automo- bile association. The information was inaccurate and the story premature.
 No warrants mad been served last night on any of the supposed offend CTS. In fact the first information that the supposed speeders had that they were violators of the law was when they saw their names in the papers. and some of them probably do not know it yet.
 To say that .Mr. Bullard was sur prised to learn that he had violated the speed limit is putting it very mildly. indeed. He was amazed, flabbergast- ed and chagrinned. MT. Builard has been setting q good example in this fine. He believes, and practises his belief. that.cvery ownerof ear should respect the rights of7others and the city ordinances
 This is how it happened The off
