Efforts are being made by Kansas
City snake fancier to have snakes in.
stalled in houses to catch mice and
vermin. He says snakes are much
better than cats. We don't know
much about the ability of snakes as
little helpers around the cellar, but
1t can at least be said for them that
they are not likely to disturb people
by wailing and screeching in back
yards at night.

THE FUTURE PHOENIX
CITY OF 100000
\ PREDICTION MADE BY J. W..
DORRIS
Why He Thinks 1t Will Not be Long
Coming

J. w. Doris faith in the future of
Phoenix increases with the growth
of the city and the development of
the valley. There was Il time when
not many believed i'm the outcome of
this region. There had been appar-
emily good starts which had been
suddenly checked. 1t turned out AT
terward however that the starts had
been made i'm tho wrong way.
But Mr. Doris believed that ulti-
mately things would come out right
and he backed his belief by his in
vestments. That was a good many
years ago. Later, say half dozen
years ago when the Roosevelt project
gave promise of supplying what the
valley lacked To insure its prosperity
Mr.. Doris made other and heavier
He believed they were
good. for u big part of his eXpecta-
ton had already been realized and
he naturally felt justified in extend
ing his faith. just as a merchant feels
justified in extending credit To a
debtor who has met his obligation.
Mr.. Doris bought more land and
made other investments. By this
time he began To figure on the maxi
mum size of the city. that is the
size of a city that the surrounding
country would support and he plac-
ed it at between 10000 and 10000.
Since then things have moved fast
er i'm that direction than he expected.
Many things have developed earlier
than schedule time and other develop
ments are promised that were not

Mr.. McDermott says that there is
no more politics in the situation now
than there has always been and that
is none at all So far as he knows He
says he doubts very much if the
members of the present council are
even now aware of the politics Of the
present chief. Politics has never
been discussed with the CHIEF nor
in the council concerning him or his
office. Mr. McDermott's ~a,ltul Of
the present situation is as follows:
Something less than year ago
Phoenix suffered a number o. very
disastrous fires. There was III
versal deband for better oreunlza-
ton and more fire protection. The
city lacked means for needed equip
ment. which it is now IN fair

Judge Thomas r. Graham of the
superior court of California recently
called a case for hearing in which a
woman had secured a divorce from
her husband and the control of her
son and wanted the control of her
daughter also. When Judge era
ham saw there were enough women
in the court room To constitute a
jury he said: Il wish L Of YOU
women would come forward and

gave unanimous verdict for the
mother and it only took them 20

like To be quoted on the subject Of

answer to the structures of an after

with throwing the fire department
into politics.
The charge is that the city council
has arrogated To itself the appoint
ment of the fire chief that it may
make a political office of what has
heretofore been most important
part of the city administration and
one that was never regarded as q
political institution, the members of
