It's Tale of Two Cities, in Which
the Big Sister Got Too Fresh
When She Tried to Shove Little
Sister Off the Transcontinental
Road Map.

Ell CENTRIC, Imperial Valley,
CAL, Nov. THE whole Imperial
Valley is applauding the latest
game stand of the city of San Dr.
ego in her long struggle to pre-
vent her big sister, Los Angeles,
from cutting her off the map of
the proposed oceantto-ocean high
way.
This latest move by San Diego
centers in an OUTLAW" road race
Ga race not sanctioned by the
American Automobile Assn.), in
which the mayor of San Diego en-
tered, personally, as a contestant.
The maverick" race is in addi-
ton to an authorized race from
San Diego to Phoenix, Ariz. Back
of it is a pretty story of city
fighting against odds.
San Diego claims that the best
and quickest way by road from
Los Angeles to Phoenix is by way
of San Diego, and the city has
been demonstrating it for several
months.
When California. couple of
years ago, voted to bond itself for
$4,000, 600 for the construction
of a state highway, and when,
subsequently an ocean-to-oceam
highway association of California.
Arizona and New Mexico was
formed at Phoenix, Los Angeles at
once advanced the contention that
the proposed ocean-to-ocean
highway would be by way of Los
Angeles, through the desert coun-
try of Riverside county, along the
Salton sea to Brawley, at the
northern end of the Imperial VAL
ley, and thence, through more
desert county to Yuma and Phoe-
nix.
This route would cut San Diego
off the state highway. San Diego
began a campaign of publicity to
show that there was a far more
feasible route by way of San
Diego, through the heart OF the
Imperial Valley, and thence to
Yuma and Phoenix. San Diego

after the last word in dances Those who have seen it demonstrated say it Is deliriouS. When the United Pro- fessional Teachers of Dancing wit messed the premier performance of this slow glide as originated by a cO-dancer from Toledo they forgot they were in Indianapolis and set up a chorus of ''bravos" that shook the literary belt to it's very foundation.
 It was hot afternoon and the sug- gestion of December days on the old millpOnd gladdened their artistic hearts, not to mention their fevered broWs. To have voiced disapproval of the skating waltz could have been to court tersichOrean oblivion It vas accepted, stamped, sealed and tied with a pink ribbon to be deliver ed to dancers all over the country as soon as the thermometer stops trying for altitude records.
 There will be small opportunity for a furtive squeeze in the skating waltz, which takes its name from the position of the dancers. Partners stand exactly as if they were about to take a spin on the ice and they make the same movements. Doesn't it sound cool and refreshing after the bunny hug?-Janet Barry in the New York Evening Telegram

SOME SUFFRAG|SIS
 WILL BE ON HAND
They Want Place in the Ratified
 ton Meeting.

E If any one thinks the women of Arizona are not really and truly in- terested in politics he is respectfully referred to q telegram received yes terday by the committee having in charge the securing of speakers for the Wilson, Marshall ratification meeting Saturday night. This teie- gram is from J. l.. Munds, of Pres colt, one of the leaders in the equal suffrage movement in this state, who asks that places on the program be reserved for herself and Mrs. Virgil Parish of Phoenix. Whether room will be made for this pair of ora toresses the committee has not yet indicated
 It is possible. though, that they may be given places, IS some of the men have declined. Of this number is A A Worsley, the Pima county socialist, who writes that he will he engaged in the trial of d murder case so can't be here. Maybe, also, the Honorable Eugene s. Ives may not come, though there is large con tingent quite anxious to hear him. They say they would like first hand explanation of his switch from Clark to Wilson in the Baltimore con venticn and the consequent violation of the instructions which Ives re- ceived at the primaries.
 But there will be plenty of speak CTS There is no doubt about that. There is hardly a democrat in this baiiiWick who doesn't think himself an accomplished orator; and some or them have been democrats hardly long enough to get out of their poll tical swaddling clothes.
 Two new committees were appoint ed yesterday. One of these is the committee on noise and red fire. con- ssting of A. C. Bernal and as many assistants as he wishes to engage. The other is the committee on seats, which is composed of sam Barrett and W. H. Fadler.

LAST HOPE GONE
 0F EDWARD PEREZ
Supreme Court Affirms the Judqnen mt
 and Sentence of Death.

The supreme court yesterday hand ed down a decision in the case of Arizona vs. Eduardo Perez. which came into that tribunal on appeal from the territorial court of Yavapai county, in which the judgment of the trial court was affirmed. Perez was convicted of murder in the first de- gree for the killing of another Mex jean and the death penalty was inn Iosed. As the case now stands only the interpretation of the governor can save him from hanging.
 Another case, also from Yavapai county, that of Arizona vs. Joseph Hoyt, convicted of arson and sen tcnced to three years in the peniten- tiary. was also decided. The court affirmed the decision of the lower court also in this case.
 There are so many matters await ing decision that the court will hear no more arguments until September

THE MAXWELL MERMAID

Sporting wild and free
 In an inkWell sea Dwells a mermaid wondrous fair, And her hair is gold
 And her charms untold More sweet than the earth maids bear When by tickle grace
 l behold her face l shout and I fain would grasp, But she sinks in flight
 And is lost from sight When the inky deeps enclasp.
 Then 1 watch and wait
 Till the hour grows late In hopes she will come once more. But she keeps her cave
 Meath the black. black wave Away from the paper shore.
 She's the happy thought
 I have never caught. I glimpse but to lose-ah me,
 'Tis ic vain I strive,
 She would not survive Outside of her inkwell sea. -McLandburgh Wilson in the New York Times

POLITICAL ACTIVITY
 EARNED HIS REWARD
Frank De Souza Made Secretary of
 the Corporation Comm ssion.

Frank De Souza, one of the best known democrats of Maricopa coun- ty, has been appointed chief clerk of the corporation commission and yes terday entered upon the discharge of his duties.
 The appointment of De SouZa by the commission will doubtless receive popular approval And the fact that he won the place over several other applicants generally regarded as pret- ty strong men is an indication of his popularity.
 De Souzl has been in politics here for a number of years and has done great deal of work on behalf of his party. Furthermore, he is a newspaper man of long and success ful experience and for this reason the fraternity generally throughout the state win share in the approval with which the appointment will be regarded,

MERE MAN AND A HAT
Why Do Folks Laugh at New Hat?
 A Writer Asks

Of all earthly transactions. that one which Imost detest is buying a hat.
 don't mind getting new suit of clothes Nowadays it is real diver sion Not going to a tailor, of course, and makes you take what you don't want and charges you double; but going to the clothing store. where acres of counters are covered with cords of ready to-wear suits, and trying them on.
 Shoes are not so difficult to buy. and gloves, and even false teeth. and I enjoy buying neckties as much as l enjoy a bad habit; but hats!
 You get attached to your old hat. To cast it away is like casting away your old wife for new one, just because you happen to have money. It seems spiritually unclean.
 And the new one, when you finally shut your eyes. breathe a silent All is well-all is gOod-no pain-no evif' and take the blooming thing and put it on vour head and walk out into the street, the new one then seems as conspicuous as a flag. You are sure everybody is looking at it.
 Your friends meet you. gaze at your top and insultingly turn their gaze quickly away.
 When you go home the children laugh at you. What do they laugh for?
 Your wife criticizes your selection. Whatever you bought, you shouldn t have bought it.. That style doesn't suit you
