ID OPEN ON TIME
Panama-Pacific Has Not Been Postponed Because of War and Is Now Nearly Completed; Great Atten- dance Expected.

That the Panama Pacific exposition will open on schedule time in spite of rumors to the effect that it had been hard hit by the European war, is the statement of Charles c. Moore, president of the exposition, in let ter to Gov. Hunt. He declares that the war will, on the contrary increase attendance at San Francisco next year, and that the big exposition will be entirely completed in time for the opening, February 20, 1915, when the gates will swing open on schedule time. The letter follows:
 Hon. Geo. w. P Hunt,
 Governor of Arizona,
 Phoenix, Arizona.
 My Dear Governor Hunt:
 Notwithstanding the fact that the Panama Pacific International Exposi- tion is 95 per cent completed, that our exhibit space is over applied for, that participation arrangements by the states of the nation are the greatest ever known in exposition his tory. that notwithstanding the Euro pean war we shall still have with us as active participants as many for eign nations as have ever been rep resented at any exposition and not withstanding the fact that all trans portation experts agree that the war will actually increase attendance here in 1915, rumOrs are rife in your state that the exposition, because of the war, will be postponed
 These rumors are utterly without foundation. Our loss in exhibits by nations at war will be negligible in our aggregate. The standing Qf the exposition as a factor in the eco homie situation resulting from war and as a factor in securing new mar kets by American producers is being realized by the largest and most alert manufacturers in this country and from the commercial side the exposition becomes more important than ever. The honor and prestige of every state and of every city In this country and the pride of every American citizen are involved in the success of this great national cele- bration of the completion of the Panama canal
 The above considerations justify me in asking you to lend your vigorous assistance in our effort to silence these rumors by publishing the facts The exposition will open on schedule time, February 20th. 1915. It will be 100 per cent completed when opened It is sure of being the greatest and most important in history and pro misses today regardless of the war to have commercial influence beyond all precedent.
 Will you not as an American citi- zen and as one directly interested in the success of this enterprise take active measures to assure the public as above.
 Very truly yours,
 (Signed) CHAS. C. MOORE,
 President

ANOTHER FACE
 ID FACE V|C
Entering the Theatrical World Vic Steinneger AL most Decides Face to Face" Slogan Always Was Intended for Him.

In the first place everyone knows 'Vic" Hanny, but for all that matter nearly everyone has head of Vic" Steinneger, too. Several years ago "Vic" Hanny better known as Vic, Meet me Face to Face" entered the mercantile field in Phoenix and has since spent something less than S50.0O0 among newspapers, billboards window cards, dodgers, tree and fence signs. aeroplane tails, auto banners, street car cards and signs, baseball score boards, and every other legitimate and mostly illegitimate means of publicity, all of this to perpetuate his name to pos terity.
 Vic" Steinneger claims to have lived in Phoenix for a quarter of a century or more, and while he has not been so strong for fame he believes sometimes during the course of human events it becomes necessary to let people know you are alive, and do a little advertis ing While he prefers to remain the same modest and retiring individual and attend to his realty affairs in Phoenix, Vie Steinneger decided to
 
 which it is absolutely necessary to throw off the garb of retirement and enter the limeight of publicity. His ground of contention is that he has a perfect right, to use his own name, which he has been carrying harmlessly for some thirty years, and that he also has a perfect right to meet any one face to face or in any manner that he chooses.
 Neither party has vet taken out an injunction to deprive his opponent of the use of his birthright, but both are firm in their stand and unless some thng is done before Tuesday night, the date Set for the rec opening of the Co., lseum theater, anything and most ev- erything might happen. Vic Stein- neger says he did not intend to in fringe on Vic Hanny's niche in the hall of advertising fame. and that he was humming a strain of the famous ballad Face to Face" when it occurred to him to prefix his name to it and meet his patrons face to face at the Coliseum next Tuesday night
 Since writing the foregoing Vic Steinneger called up on the phone and said that he would put his manager, MT Howard at the door of his thealer and that he would positively respond only to curtain calls. thus leaving the settlement of the difficulty in the hands of the people as to whether he should change his name or not

 This is a fraternal beneficiary so- ciety organized in the state of Ohio at time when there was no state supervision. Later it was compelled to leave the state and removed to Kentucky.
 The lodge is composed mostly of negroes and one w. G. Critchow is president and his wife, J. H. Elliott, is secretary and treasurer.
 It's regulations prescribe that the board of trustees, or any committee appointed by them, may pay to mem- bers or beneficiaries, in good stand ing, such cash benefits as they may deem proper and just, not to exceed $100.00 rl
 It has recently been examined by the states of Alabama and Kentucky and has been given sixty days in which to make arrangements to dis pose of it's business in these states.
 You are warned not to become members of either the grand lodge or subordinate lodges in the belief that you are obtaining insurance, as the matter of paying benefits is purely optional with the board of trustees. The association is not licensed in 1 the state of Arizona and anyone working for it in this state lays him. self liable to fine and imprisonment and will be promptly prosecuted. l w. N.

FOOLISH TRADING

As producers and builders, the
American people excel all prey
ious civilization and we are a
present-day marvel in business
efficiency, but in dealing with
foreign countries we are a sorry
lot of traders. Even since VIM.
Penn traded the Indians a hand
full of trinkets for what is now
the State of Pennsylvania, the
American people have been SELL
ing their birthright to foreigners
for a mess of pottage, so to
speak.
We export over $5o,ooo,ooo of
cattle and their products per an
mum, which feeds the nations of
Europe. and our American heir
esses spend a similar sum in buy
ing and maintaining counts, dukes
and titled peerages. These foreign
noblemen are, as a rule, absolute
" worthless-in fact become a
perpetual liability-for it costs
more money to operate and keep
them in repair than it does to
run our cotton mills. European
royalty puts the black sheep of
it, families on the block and our
rich american girls buy them
and we virtually exchange rail-
roads, wheat fields and millions
OF dollars worth OF products of
farm, mine and factory for titled
pauperS who could not be resold
for any sum. 1t does not require
foreign treaties, feet of war
vessels or tariff revision to stop
this enormous loss. 1t needs only
common sense in the homes of
the rich.
We export SI8,ooo,ooo of lum-
Der and timber, and American
tourists spend a similar amount
in motoring over Europe and
in foreign lands al
though the most enchanting
scenes of the world are on the
american continent.

WINCHESTER WOMAN

Mrs. R. L. Bratton, who went
to Mayo Brothers hospital at
Rochester, Mimi, August 18th,
and who has been undergoing
treatment there since that time,
was operated on for appendicitis
and floating kidney, at 8 o'clock
Thursday morning. In a tele-
gram received by Mr.. Bratton,
Mrs. Brattop was reported to be
doing as we'll as could be ex-
pected, the operation being very
successful.
Mrs. Bratton was accompanied
by her own nurse, Miss Kate
CLANCY, who will remain with her
until she is well enough to return
to her Observation-Disclosures Sun.
Mrs. Bratton is a sister-in-law
of Mrs. w. A. Sutton, of this

encouraging and developing the
production from American soil Of
all the sugar required by the
American people so that we may
be independent of other nations
and our consumers may be as
sured of a permanent adequate
supply of cheap sugar"
The moral is to be found in
the closing paragraph. All of
the sugar required by the Amer
lean people must be produced
from American soil. The one
way in which that can be done is
by a return to prohibitive tariff:
At least we are to assume unless
the domestic sugar prducers have
changed the whole burden of
their song.
Sugar is now selling at double
the price that obtained three
weeks ago. The reason assigned
is that this country is cut off from
its outside supply and that the
sugar now on hand and soon to
be produced can be sold at high
prices abroad.
1t is not asserted that the sup
ply of sugar on hand has in any
wise been decreased. The sugar
is here, It's control is in the
hands of few men. Much of it
they hope to hn'd until transport
tation facilities will enable them
to dispose % i: abroad at Il high
figure. Meanwhile Americans
are paying two prices for Amer
lean sugar and the war is not yet
a month old.
Could a prohibitive tariff do
more for domestic producers, or
are they so well satisfied with
conditions as to desire the Gov
eminent to make them perpetual?
Somehow the prospect fails to
appeal.

ELK STORY THAT
WON A PRIZE

During the recent convention
of the Grand Lodge of Elks in
Denver one of the local papers
offered a handsome prize for the
best Elk story contributed t. its
columns during the reunion ses-
sion. This is the story that won
the prize:
Bill, the bridegroom of three
months, babe his elkette a fond
adieu and started on a busin ess
trip to a town forty-fve miles
distant.
The journey was to be made by
automobile, he promising to re-
turn in time for ! o'clock dinner.
But no husband appeared when
dinner was served, and the an
xious wife watched the hands of
the clock as they moved slowly
moved over the dial and showed
the hour of midnight, and still
the husband failed to appear.
The now frantic wife sent tel
cgrams to six brother Elks living
in the town where he had gone.
asking if Bill was spending the
night with them.
As dawn appeared a farm wag-
on came up, driven by a farmer
and furnishing motive power for
a broken-down automobile that
trailed behind, steered by the
husband Almost at the same
time came a messenger boy
with an answer to one of the tele-
grams followed at intervals by
five others, and all of the tele-
grams said: eyes, Bill is spend
ing the night with me-"

Elk maintains thy virtue?

DEMAND FOR VEAL

"The demand or veal has IN
creased rapidly, and not only are
the surplus dairy calves slaugh-
tered, but thousands of beef
calves as well, until calf will
now sell from So to $I2 when
only two or three months old"
This quotation from the Farm
er's Bulletin 588 of the u. S.
Department of Agriculture means
that unless the farmer has un-
limited cheap feeds, it is usually
more profitable to market the
dairy or dual-purpose calves than
to attempt to raise them, even
though some of them might make
good steers. While many deplore
this heavy Slaughter Of calves,
and legislation aaginst it has been
urged, the consumers demand
must be met.
While the number of cattle has
decreased, the demand for meat
has naturally grown until now not
only have the exports nearly
ceased, but the packers that they
may provide cheaper meat are
now buying cattle that were
formerly fed. The farmers who
formerly bought nearly finished
cattle as feeders have been COM
PEELED to pay higher prices for
such cattle or take thinned
animals.

Schools of Kentucky, there has
been a large ingathering of new
pupils, better teaching has been
done, more new Sunday School
buildings erected, many classes
for men and women organized,
and hundreds of teachers have
been taking special courses of
study preparing themselves to
become better teachers, all of
these things and many others
give promise of making the State
Convention to be held in I.exing-

WHY SUGAR is HIGH

to us regarding the advance in
sugar and so much interest is dis
played in this subject that we are
sending out the following state
ment of the cause of the rise in
the price of sugar"
The caption of the foregoing is
"Note To Editors" The sigma
ture is Domestic Sugar Produc-
ers,' 80 East Forty-second street,
New York.
The statement is as follows:
Europe and America are now
engaged in a battle royal for
sugar. That is the primary cause
of the high prices that now pre-
vail Cut off by the outbreak of
the war from her supply of
100000 tons of sugar ordinarily
secured from Germany and
Austria Hungary, England turn
ed to the nearest available sugar
market. which happened to be
New York. Backed by cash, as
Stunning all the war risk involved
in shipment and ready to pay
whatever prices might be neces-
sary to secure sugar, British buy
ers invaded the American market.
Within little more t an a week
they purchased almost 100000
tons of raw and refined sugar,
bidding up the market nearly 3
cents pound in the process of
getting it. Their buying sub
sided temporarily only when they
found it impossible to secure
As another war measure for Sc
curing a supply of sugar, orders
were issued in all the sugar
growing colonies of Great Brit
ion forbidding the sale of sugar
except for imperial use.
"At the outbreak of the war
the visible supply of sugar avail
able for the American market
was barely sufficient to last until
the new crop of American-grown
sugar shown begin to become
available in October. The with
drawal of 100000 tons from this
supply created serious shortage,
and inquiries received in the
New York market indicating that
England would seek to obtain
several hundred thousand tons
more sugar, and that other Eu-
ropean countries might endeavor
to purchase sugar here, threaten
ed to make this shortage much
more serious. AS a result Amer
lean purchasers in the sugar mar
ket, seeking to protect their own
trade, entered into actie compe-
tition with the foreign buyers in |
the scramble for sugar. To make
the situation more acute, con-
sumers in all parts of the country
rushed to lay in supplies far in
excess of their ordinary pur-
chases, thus accentuating the
scarcity.
"The prize for which the buy
ers of Great Britain and America
are contending is the Cuban
sugar crop. England and the
United States each import an
nually about 100000 long tons
of sugar. The Cuban crop is
about 100000 tons, enough to
supply one of these two big
customers, but entirely made
quate to met the needs of both.
The prospect, therefore, is for a
keen struggle on the part of
these two countries to secure the
bulk of the coming Cuban crop
in case the war continues for any
considerable length of time.

is relieved, it is probable
that Great Britain, and possibly

So far as we can see, the WELL
known white race has not suffered
any great indignity because Frank
Moran lost to Jack Johnson. 1t is the
popular thing nowadays for fighters
of the white hope class to declare
they are trying to wrest the title from
the smoke in order to redeem the
honor of the palefaces.
Bunk, pure and simple, and not too
pure. They want the honor of the
title, but most of all the money that
the title can be hooked for with the
theaters.
Moran simply wasn't there. He
lacked a punch. Johnson was an
easy mark to hit, but the Pitts
burgher's blows did no damage.
johnson, too, showed that he had
lost his woeful waIlop. Time after
time he smashed his mitts into
Moran's face, but failed to secure
even a knockdoWn as a reward. Six
times in one round he struck the
white man on the jaw, and Moran
wasn't groggy after collecting the
soaks.
1t wasn't a good fight. Not up to
the caliber of championship ARRAYS.
Johnson was bad, but clever and ex-
perienced enough to get by with what
he had. Moran was worse, and could
not cope with the cinder's guile.
