A SULTAN WANTS TO FLY.

Mley Hafid, sultan of Morocco, yearns to fly in an aeroplane. See ing the aeroplanes maneuver so smoothly in the air at Rabat he concluded that it was an ideal mode of locomotion.
 Where is the captain of the birds 2" he asked the astonished Gen era Ditte one morning.
 General Ditte was partly respon- sible for the sultans desire He had allowed aerop1ane sheds to be erected near the sultans residence. and every morning Muley Hafid was awakened by the noise of the mo- tors. He was eager to see the flying machines and to touch them and the flying ground.
 T want to- fly in one of these machines said the sultan. The gen eral was embarrassed. as he had no wish to allow the sultan to risk his life. He soon found an excuse for to the sultan that the machines which were there were only for one person The suItans wish could be satisfide only when the new ma chimes. with a. seat for d passenger arrived from France.

There are nearly 30,000 such acci- dents a month-at least that has been the record of the past few months and it is pointed out that number of persons equal to the population of a gOod-sized town are killed every year by being struck by automobiles, street cars and horses or in other avoidable ways The majority of the victims are childlen and it is proposed there fore to give all he youngsters of school age systematic instructi,.l as t, how to protect themselves from injury on the c;tvs thoroughfares This training will inclde instructions as to crossing the streets in accord ance with traffic rules what to do when Q motor car or runaway horse is rapidly bearing down on a pedestrian and various other points important in the preservation of life and limb The work of instruction is to begin within the next few days under the supervision of representa- tives of the Board of Education and of various philanthropis organiza . tions. As a result it is hoped to bring about decided reduction in New York's appalling death list from street accidents.

Apparently. the department has changed front on this matter; every one will remember the stand taken by Secretary Wilson a year or so ago when he had report on one of the Florida land schemes suppressed; l; bis theory then was that the depart ment had no business to pass upon such. matters.
 Few investors would be taken in f it were generally known that the promoters of the unowrthy proposi- tions had to pass under the scrutiny of d government official. It would become difficult for men to buy tracts of submerged sand in Florida for $4 an acre and peddle orchard plots of five and ten acres each at from $30 to $50 an. acre to buyers in Ohio, Indiana, Illionis and the west. It would prevent very largely the exploitation of desert land in Wy

FROM Fl PAS0
 ID PHOENIX
The Probability of Securing Added Automobile At traction Only Less in I'm portance Than Famous Desert Race.

Secretary Wood of the fair com
 mission is hopeful of securing an automobile race from Fl Paso for fair week. The autmobilists of tha Pass City are favorable to it so that the thing hangs on the abili- ty to finance it. There is a proba- bilty that the towns enroute would assist to some extent so that a purse similar, though not quite so large as the prize for the Los Angeles to Phoenix race may be hung up The latter race has become an in- stitution and the price of it has in creased with the years, since it was first known as The Republican Cup Race.
 Secretary Wood has received a let ter from Secretary E. P Grindell of the Douglas chamber of commerce saving that he believed that a good deal of financial encouragement would be given the Fl Paso to Phoe- nix race by the towns in the south east as it would tend to advertise them and the Borderland route. Mir Grlndell had not had an opportunity to take the matter up with his cham
 Der of commerce.
 The Los Angeles to Phoenix race will terminate at the fair grounds on Monday afternoon, the first day of the fair and it has been pro- posed by some that if the Fl Paso to Phoenix race can be instituted that t be made a race with the
 Los Angeles racers. But it has been , pointed out that that is impractica- ble for the reason that the course from Fl Paso is not only a little shorter but much less difficult. ] So, # it is possible to arrange the contest it will be fixed so that it may be ended at the fair grounds
 on the second day of the fair. It is quite certain that in addi- 1 tion to the desert race, there will | be races from Prescott, Tucson. 1 Globe and from Bisbee and Douglas.

LOWER LEVEL
 LIVING COST
New York's Plan to Re duce Prices of Food and at the Same Time to I'm prove the Quality of It.

NEW YORK, Aug. 4-The newest end most elaborate plan ever pro- posed to reduce the cost of living public through corners in food sup plies is being worked out here by the combined action of state and city officials aided to some extent by the cooperation of private interests For several months a Food Investigation commission created by the state has been studying conditions here to determine the factors which con tribute to the high cost of living and to work out methods of se- curing more reliable supply of toodstuffs for the five million in habitants of the city at more req sonable rates. The commission has not yet completed it's work but re- ports have been prepared that in- oicate the general lines to be fol- lowed in it's recommendations. These will provide for sweeping changes in the methods of handling and dis tributing the city's food supply one part of the plan will be the creation of d permanent food commission
 
 prevent attempts to corner supplies or to increase prices artificially in other ways. This, however, is only one small part of the revolutionary change proposed. It's most import ant provision will be the esta ablish- ment of wholesale terminal market to which food supplies will be brought direct in the railway cars in which they are shipped from the producing point This will avoid the expense and waste of renandling and carting which at present adds greatly to the cost of nearly all food brought into the city and at the same time causes serious deteri- oration in the case of perishable goods which are taken from refrig orator cars and hauled through the streets In the proposed great food terminal space will be provided for cooperation associations both of producers and consumers and if any attempt to initiate prices is made by those occupying space their li cenSes will be revoked and they will be unable to do business. Above the floors on which the selling Is conducted will be vast cold storage chambers so that food can be kept under perfect conditions. It is es- timated that this plan will save to the people of the city millions of dollars a year that are now lost in charges for unnecessary trucking and rehandling and through the boosting of prices whenever there iS a tpmnorarv shortage of any mar ticular food product.

The answer to the question, When is restaurant not a restaurant? according to no less an athority than MT. John Owens of Catham Square and the Bowery, is when it does not serve beef and" Beef and in the language of Park Row and the lower East Side invariably means a plate of corned beef and beans, the staple price of which in the fashionable refectories of that part of the city is fifteen cents al though in less pretentious establish ments it is served for dime. MT. Owens is considered man of parts in his own vicinage where muscle rather than wealth guages mans standing Yielding to the desire for a change of scene which comes to most persons at this vacation sea son, MT. owens a few evenings since wandered northward as far as Fifth Avenue and Thirtyfourth street. Just as he was passing the most gilded of the fashionable uptown hotels the bangs of hunger assailed him and entering the restaurant which was crowded with diners in
 
 dish. The walters education evil dently had been neglected for he. never heard of beef and and refer red the worthy MT. owens to the menu, an appurtenance of dining with which that gentleman was wholly unfamiliar. To John. how ever. it was inconceivable that any place called restaurant should fail to provide the most staple of all dishes and he proceeded to demand his rights emphasizing his remarks by piling several walters. tables and chairs in an impressive heap in the center of the room. When he told the magistrate in the police court the following morning of the error that had led to his appearance in the dock. the judge was sympathet- ic and explained that while res taurant was restaurant the world over it was only on the East Side that it was necessarily beanery That instruction in the art of

 Such d promise of national good is in the movement from the crowd ed cities back to the land that we cannot afford to check the flow by letting the swindlers alone. So much splendid help is offered free by the department of agriculture to the man who wants it, after he goes to the land. that the first step -and the most important one-ought to be guided.

Just at present, al though all the various headquarters are extremely busy, it is chiefly work of a preliminary sort and it is not expected that the full swing of ac- tivty will begin before the middle of August. One striking fact about the party capitals this year is that the old familiar faces of former cam paigns are missing New men are at the helm and the old timers who drop in for chat in the old time way are likely to feel decidedly lone some.

WHERE THEY GET TT

Arizona republican., 1912-08-05

It will surprise the average Ameri- can accustomed to consider that his country's claim to supremacy as food growing nation is based on it's yield of wheat and corn to be told that the United tates will soon lead the world in the output of another great food crop, namely sugar Yet this is the prediction of no less an authority than Herr Paasche. former vice chairman of the German Reichs
 tag and prominently identified with the development of the German beet sugar industry who is now in this country on tour of inspection. The United States has every con
 dition necessary to great and rapid development as sugar producer.
 said Herr Paasche here this week. Tt is the only country, so far as I know. that can grow both beet ana cane sugar within it's borders. You have hundreds of millions of acres of land adapted to the growing of sugar beets. You have thoroughly up-to- date beet sugar factories man ned by experts, and you have here at home the greatest sugar market
 in the world. In d few years l eX- pect to see you growing all the sugar required for your own use and pos sibIy more besides" It was pointed out to the German leader that con- gress might decide that it would be wiser to purchase our sugar supply abroad instead of growing it at home and might pass a free sugar bill 10 bring about this effect. but he de clined to take this possibility seri- cusIy. From selfish motives we would be glad to see that happen. ?" he explained, but you Americans arc tco clever voluntarily to give up the advant5ges you will enjoy from the building up of this industry The use of root crops. particularly lre sugar beet, in iotation with cere- als is at the foundation of the eat imDr ,, fment in az cultural cor ditions tE1t h;., taken place in Germany am. the adoption ,'t the same plan here will result in a vast increase in your output of all your principal farm crops"
 For the next three months Broad way is to be the political maelstrom of the country. The national head quarters of all three political par ties are located on New York's main street. each one occupying the want age point afforded by one of the three squares that mark the mid- town course of the great White Way. At the lower end of this po- ltical White Light district is the stamping ground of the Progressive or more familarly the Bull Moose party, overlooking Madison quare from the lofty Metropolitan Tower. Half mile further uptown, facing Greedy Square, the democratic head quarters are being outfitted By a curious coincidence-or perhaps it is irtentional-the democrats are to conduct their fight from the Wilson building. Another half mile up street is the republican citadel occupying a floor of the Times building in Longacre Square. As Broadway is never slow to catch on to any in-
