EDITOR VISITS PHOENIX.
Prescott Courier.D

T.
 Last Monday evening the Courier man rode the choo chCo cars to Phoenix and returned the next night. This was his second visit to Phoenix, the first having been soon after the Inauguration of the late Governor Franklin. as the governor of the then territory of Arizona. On the last trip he took his eyes down to have Dr
 Ancil Martin fit them with glasses. People who go to see Dr. Martin who may be suspicius of thse box trap looking elevators can find a stairway by looking closely. We took the stain
 way going and coming, to the evident disappointment of the cOlorCd boy who appeared to want to get the drop us by enticing us into the trap and then closing the barred door
 If there was ever a question about Phoenix being a city that question no longer exists, and we believe that this generation VII see it's population increase to fifty thousand souls. It is rapidly connecting with it's surround ing surburban towns and the latter are spreading over country where a combination of rich land, plenty Of wa
 ter and a salubrious climate need only . the cooperation of man to make the Salt river valley all empire in itself. ! The impressions one receives are very similar to those one gets upon visiting l Southern California cities The eli mate and surrounding conditions are l very similar, indeed, not forgetting the man who greets you on the stree uE, l der the impression that he has met ! you somewhere before and closes by
 handing you a real estate agent card
 And this suggests the thought. Why hot try a visit to Phoenix once, in | stead of CaliforTaa. X little more cul 1 tiNation of the Arizona for ATizOnans ! sentiment would soon place Arizona cities and resorts in a position where they would offer every attraction to the visitor that is tO be found in Cal ifornia or anywhere else. We met not a few former residents Of Prescott | each and all of whom said they were doing well and spoke with enthusiasm Of the present condition and future out look of their adopted home. Al
 the Phoenix people are particularly courteous to the stranger withiD tho i, gates.' and this not only helps | some" but il helps whole lot.

CURRENCY ( REFORM PROSPECTS.


 The dispatches from Washington stating that the prospects for a cur. rency reform measure are bright, and that action may be secured at the session of congress which con~enes next month. would be highly encour- aging if they could be taken as prob ably correct. It is true that tne lead CT of the democratic majority have expressed the opinion that currency reform is second only to tariff re, form, but there has been noting as yet on which to predicate the opinion that there is anything like unanIm- ity among the democratic leaders as to what is required or advisable, says the Boston News:
 It is encouraging. however, tO find that the conditions, as they as. feet the prospects of currency re form, are hopeful. The situati1r is described in a dispatch from Wash. ington as follows:
 "0 Congressional leaders arc ready to meet the issue frankly This is shown by the recently written let. ters of Chairman Underwood as well as by statements Of other leaders.
 "2) There is little or no disposition to attempt the passage of a bill in eith, CT house Of congress at the short ses. sion, owing to the difficulty of getting ready and of securing legislative ac, tion without more time
 "(3) But there is no inclination to waste time; on the contrary, the win, ter will be spent in securing, if pos sibie, all agreement on a bill for use at the beginning of the first session of the new congress. This is indicated by the action Of the legislative sub, committee of the banking and currea cy committee in determining 10 hold hearings in the near future.
 "(4) Very little has been heard Of demands for extreme action Of the kind advocated by some .progressives. The demand is for Q sane and Couser evils without going too Tar in playing into the hands of any selfish inter yative bill that will relieve exist.ns ests."

So she may do, but once arrived there she will buy only the fashions that have been created especially for Americans. What she likes is notifications of the Paris styles, and what the fashion business in this country consists of is making beautiful, con seryative costumes out of the extreme, for eign looking originals.
 In q big patternmaking establishment conference of the fashion committee is held at stated periods, and is as gravey con ducted as directors meeting of q La Sale street concern. Pictures are spread on long central table, around which the meeting is held.
 They are photographs of women, taken at the races the opera, at tea in the Bois, wear ing the newest most typical costumes fore shadowing styles-to-be

 This dispatch, bearing a Paris date line meant the making of new fashon-evoly- ing the pattern, getting out advance pictures that would present in visual form all the in formation the message contained, and others of the same importance which come at cer- tain seasons by the dozen from the leading dressmakers of Paris and staff correspond ents maintained there by the concern It represented the first step in the business of making fashions. The last step is to get q pattern on the market which shall go all over the country and make it possible for housewives in British Columbia to keep themselves in the same style as the women of Chicago and New York.
 The business of making fashions is one of the large industries of the day. Coat and suit houses do a great deal toward disscm-

Fashioned on q Liping Model.

Living models get themselves up in black, ierseylike bodices, to make themselves look as nearly as possible like the headless bust on a pedestal in a dressmaker's room. The first draft of what will one day be fashion, able costume is cut directly on them. The seams are sewed, and the markings for those seams are traced on the living model.
 She walks back and forth, back and forth across the room, while dozen eyes search out flaws in the canvas costume. When at last the lines in it are considered perfect, every row of stitching, every notch for match ing seams every dart, is traced for repro duction in the paper pattern. Each costume that the countrywoman makes in a remote home somewhere across the prairies is first made complete-perfect-to it's last stitch in the building where her pattern is manufac. tured.
 There is estimating or abstract cacula. ton used in making that highly abstrac. looking thing, the tissue paper pattern. It is all fashioned by human fingers on the human form.

 Sometimes a discussion of an hour is given to the matter of moving the waist line m inch or two below it's position at the time. The committee is organized for the purpose of considering what is becoming to the American woman, to have prepared for her a set of styles that she can choose from anl that will please her when she has chosen.

 The slash in the Paris dress will be bridged for the American woman with an underpiece of handsome material, perhaps studded with rhinestones and embroiderej with gold. Thus will the American idea of decorum be respected, while the charming effect of the slashed Parsian costume is pre- served. The pictures created are, when ap- proved by the fashion committee, circulated over the country by the thousands, carrying the message of what the coming style s to be.

 A fashion is not a thing that springs up spontaneously out of the soil of Paris an transplants easily to this environment It is carefully worked out in the foreign city tentatively introduced there, accepted de- clined by Frenchwomen, and transmitted by photographs, model garments, and descrip- ;ion 10 the places where the fashion business is conducted in this country.

It seldom gets abroad in the land in un- modified form. The American woman would not accept it if it was introduced. Still, she will scarcely accept fashion which does not have the stamp of Paris on it. Somebody in Paris said:

So far, so good. :" Then we ordinary mortals,' you continue, will see the imported models displayed in the shop windows and then we will buy a good pat tern, and - Then you hesitate, for after all you are as vague in your ideas of how fashions really are made as are ninety nine out of every hundred women.
 It was to set you right exactly on this point that visit was made recently to one of the big fashion designing concerns. The visitor was in conversation with a depart ment head when the arrival of a cablegram interrupted them.
 That must be a mighty important mes sage" thought the woman visitor. It was important from the designers standpoint, as we'll as to the thousands of women through out the country who would read the message when it had been incorporated in completed patterns
