AsQU|TH READY
TO CREATE MANY PEERS
England Is Perturbed Over the
Prospect of Custom Made
Lords in Parliament
fBx Associated Press,

LONDON, July I8-There is much curi-
osity on the part of parlimanet over the
cabinet list of potential peers There is
no doubt that such a list has been made
up.
The governments spokesman have said
repeatedly within the past week that
Premier Asquith was prepared to meet
all conditions of the situation in all de-
tails, which is taken to mean that he
has hidden up his sleeve two leading
sources of supply. this being the eldest
sons of liberal peers and members of par
lament.
The proposal to ennoble the eldest sons
presents an amusing phase of the revo-
luton. Peers of baronial rank think that
If their sons are ennobled they themselves
should be promoted to be viscounts when
their sons are made barons
Some of the more prominent members
of parlinent, who are not averse to join

that If host of barons are to be poured
into the upper house. of which a large
proportion must be commonplace persons.

distinction of viscountships

and the country and politicians alike
have been tired to death by elections with
the consequent turmoil. expense and dis
turbance to both. Moreover, the govern

eral constituencies.
The exact social status of the new
peers, If Matched, is the subject of no lit

TESS to believe that they will be looked
upon with amusement and contempt. One
writer says that American heiresses are
far too shrewd to find such quasi noble
men as objects of their ambition.
Another suggests the addition of the
title of count to the British peerage for
the purpose of Asquith's peers" in order
to distinguish them from regular lords
and as noblemen created for a special
political purpose.

There is no reason why the brush and

district and covers about 100 acres.
A New York man offered him $4,000
for his crop at the early part of the
season, but his thorough knowledge of
the peach industry and the scarcity of
the fruit this year caused him to refuse
the offer.
Yesterday he declared that he received

to Boston after paying the freight and
all other outlaying charges. From all re-

NOT MANY MORE DAYS
 UNTIL EASTER COMES
Hint to Those Intending to Buy Os- trieh Piumes at BsIke's Big
 Curio Store

: It will not be long now until Easter comes. Those who are considering the giving of Easter presents will have to bestir themselves. This warning is for those who have been thinking of giving that most appro- priate of all Easter presents. an os- trich plume. such as are found at Balke's Big Curio Store
 There is a great demand for those plumes. The demand grows in the first place out of the wonderfully low prices charged for them and in the next place out of the excellence of the plumes. Orders are coming rapidly by mali. Only yesterday an order was received from Winslow for two, a willow and straight plume. This is only one of many outside orders. The senders have seen the various ostrich plumes advertisements in The Re publican and they have sent sma, orders to see whether the advertise ments set forth the real state of facts. These trial orders have gen. erally been followed by larger ones which in turn have been followed by letters saying that the plumes were better than the purchasers had ex- pected.
 But it is the desire of the man agement of the Bake Big Curio Store that the home people avail them selves of the opportunity offered. These plufnes are bargains. As has frequently been stated. they are in tended forsan advertising feature of the store rather than as source of profit. The management therefore would like-to have as many of them as possible distributed here in Phoe- nix e. -,
