OUR CHIEF PORT OF COMMERCE

Although New York still holds tho | lead as the principal port of commerce | in the country. the annual report ot ] the Chamber of Commerce shows that the lead is not as big as it was q year ago. This city's share in the total foreign commerce Of the United States for 1911 was 46l2 per cent whereas in 1910 it was AS 45 per cent. In some of the leading imports, such as sugar. tea and cotton manufactures. New York did not maintain the pro- portiOnate share of the previous year.
 The report goes on to say:
 The total exports of the country increased s2l7,6s0.49l last year. while the imports increased sl.266.s3S The imports were. therefore, practically unchanged, while there was q notable increase in the volume of exports. New York usually makes the best showing in year of opposite condi- tiOn:, namely. when there is d great ircreas in imports. This explains why New York's gain in foreign com mercc during the fiscal year 1911 was not as large as in the preceding year. when its increase over 1909 amouuted to S2c5.0S9. .967. which was the biggest eNpcns.on in any one year since lSs0" New York Evening Post

FUNNY RANCHES Of
 FREAk|sA FOLKS
They Want Their Pictures Framed Tc Match The High Lights In
 Their Hair.

Did you ever hear about the man who went into the store of a local cu- rio dealer with picture of his best girl which he wanted to have framed, and asked tine proprietor Mir. Bake. to match the moulding to the young wo- mans hair which was red? Well. that's exactly what happened and it is no uncommon occurrence for the patrons or the store. to ask that the frame be made the shade of something in the picture. Forgetting that Mir Bake has had years of experience Tn framing all sorts Of pictures. both photographs anl paintings and has stock of moullings io choose from, that Till make his work certain success. Wouldn't it ba funny to have ones photo framel to suit the color of ones scarf pin or tint cd with gold leaf as a sort of compan- iCn piece to the filling in his teeth The booZer "ould have his touched with red lights. shaded to aCcumpdny the eIubescene 1f his nose. The man ir- clined to have the blues. could have hrs photograph framed to match his feelings, in dark cerulean. The pat rcns of the Big Curio, do sometimes think they want combinations as ab- surd as the foregoing foolishness. The people who know Bake and his shop leave their picture affairs to be fram- ed up" by the man who has helped nightly to make Phoenix a biz splotch on the map. Joking eliminated, there is no doubt but that appropriateness adds much to the beauty of d picture and that is exactly why you want a dealer of taste who has made framing q speciality. Bake knows how.

 way he likes to grow Not at all like proper children, which

 there's none of him at all. He hasn't got notion of how children

Tariff Revision Coming Along

Chairman Underwood is kept busy in his committee rooms. He has no time to give to politics while he is looking for items to make good a big reduction in the sugar duty. No doubt he would be glad to put sugar on the free list, but that cannot be done while no one can see how the loss of reve- nue could be replaced. To strike off $6O, 100000 in revenue calls for new items of taxation and these cannot readily be found. The committee is striving to make up sugar schedule that will meet the expectations of the caucus and of the country.
 And as soon as the Sugar problem is solved then will come revisions of the cotton and wool schedules. The tariff board will be ready next week to report the information it has gath cred concerning cotton. The report will fill but two volumes, whereas the wool report filled four, which no one has read or inwardly digested.

Politics Galore

we had lots of politics before Colonel Roosevelt threw his hat into the ring; now the country seems to be nothing but politics." said a democrat.
 'Tf I were a republican I would be in- clined to vote for ex-PreAdent Roosevelt. although that third term idea does not set very we'll on me. Still I would strain a point and vote for him and do all Gould for his nomination and election if it were not for the fact that the dem ocratic party has an opportunity of win ming a great victory on the tariff issue this year.
 "I am a Cleveland democrat and will vote for MT. Underwood for President with as much pleasure and enthusiasm as voted for Grover Cleveland, one of the greate& Presidents this country has ever had. But speaking of Roosevelt. he is one of the men who does things and with all His faults he is in my estimation big man.

In the Spring Time

While this is the last day of the almanac winter, real spring is three weeks off. In this latitude, however, gardeners and farmers may begin their spring work now with safety. Truck farming is very backward in the south, but warm, soft weather from now on will enable tillers of the soil to "catch up' quite fast.
 If March comes in like lion so much the better, for it will go out like lamb. If it comes in like lamb it will go out like lion. But even then there would be very little rough weather, for if the goose bone proph- cts are right, and they usually are, a rough and prolonged winter is almost sure to be followed by warm and fruitful spring.
 If there is any commercial loss to the south because of the backward trucking season, it will be made up by the abundant peach crop which is promised. Everything points now to record breaking orchard yields.

From the March Strand
 We all like our little joke, and eastern potentates have from time immemorial en- joyed the reputation of being the merriest of monarchs. The Moorish palace of Sui- tan Abu Yakub Yussuf at Seville, known today as the ''Alcazar," contains one of the most elaborate practical jokes extant. When in gay mood, some important merchant or notable of Seville would re- ceive pressing invitation summoning him to the presence. In fevep of de-
 lighted expectancy the fiattered guest would don his whitest raiment and hie him to the palace. There he would be tremendously conducted to the gardens and directed up the long avenue. But alas. Half way up it he would inevit- ably tread upon a moving flagstone rest ing upon spring, and immediately count less fine jets of water would gush out of the ground and from the surrounding shrubbery and drench him. Amid the jeers of the courtiers, the luckless and de- draggled wight would beat an undigni- fled retreat. Before he was allowed to leave the palace. however. he was sworn to secrecy on pain of death. At all costs nothing must make the joke fall flat when repeated. The treacherous fagstone has been removed, and today the visitor may pass with impunity: but peseta to the head gardener will usually cause the foun- tains to play. Not many people know of their existence. however. The water is sprayed through hundreds of tiny pipes, so small as to be almost invisible which are placed in the cracks between the flag stones.
