WILLIAMS BLOCK.

To The Republican:
 I would like to make few correc- tions of statements made in the diff ferent newspapers of the city from time to time in regard to the Williams block at Five Points. It appears that the said papers have been misinformed, or some person is trying to mislead the public, or to get into publicity, or for the sake of holding public office. We always like to have facts stated as be- ing the truth, and the whole truth. The papers have stated that William vio- lated the building ordinance. and has been notified to stop work on said building, which is wholly untrue. On the 18th of October, l took out build ing permit to construct a tWo-story brick building located at Five Points. The building has been constructed and has been leased to different parties, who have occupied the building. don't wish to pick quarrel with anyone, and l do not intend to run for public office, but I only want a square deal
 c. H. Valentine, one of the best known contractors in the city of Phoe- nix, did all the brick work on the build ing. He completed his work about the goth of December He saw nothing of the building inspector while on the job thought the inspector was lost, as he

President A. H. Wilde of the State University has submitted to the Phoenix board of trade and r. Nj. C. A. the subjects of six lectures 10 be presented here under the joint aus pices of the three institutions, be- ginning February 25. This program of lectures has been accepted by the local organizations which will handle the Phoenix end.
 The title of the course is the Country Life Lectures" and the list is as follows:
 February 25-"How the Soil Was Made" Dr. Charles H. Clapp, prOfes sor of geology.
 March 4-"WOrders of the Soil" Professor S. F. Morse, agriculturist, Agricultural Experiment. Station
 March 11-"Thc Successful Home Garden" Professor J. j. Thornber. hotanist Agricultural Experiment Station

did not appear. so we went on with the building until it was nearing cOmple- ton. All at once, on or about the 20th day of January, he appeared on the scene, stating that certain brick piers in front of the building had to be re- moved and that the roof braces should be fixed, q let contract to carpenters to repair roof immediately, and that a row of posts should be set in the cen ter of each business room, on the lower floor. He also wanted some holes drilled into the reinforced lentil, and braced back to the joist. Now. these ioists are two by tWelves, nearly 23 feet span from wall to wall, with five rows of bridging. Now. how can any reasonable minded person conceive how that a just inspector could require posts under the center of such strong timbers. when each two by twelve is supposed to carry from two to four thousand pounds. breaking point five thousand pounds? l believe in city or dinances being obeyed as strongly as any man. I believe in city building inspectors. and building permits, but 1 believe the inspector should do his duty as well as draw pay He should also show reason in his demands, so as to make life and limb sure, and not to damage property. Anyone knows from reasonable points of view it would be a great damage to property to put rows of posts through the center of business room It is wholly uncalled for.
 I would invite the public to come visit the new building and businesses contained therein, and express their opinions on the subject Thanking you for giving me the space in your paper, I am.
 Very truly yours,

 But the great quality of Lincoln, said Dean Scarlett, the one to which he especially invited the attention of the audience, was his firm trust in God with whose power and presence he was overwhelmed when confronted with his great task. With Gods help he would discharge it and without Gods help he would fail. He prayed fervently for that help and when the news of that prayer was flashed over the country. there came to the nation, to the great common people, a realization of Gods power and a confidence in it that the country had never felt before
 Lincoln was no orthodox as Ortho doXy was then understood. He had been in early life without a belief in revealed religion: he had written against it. But he had a clearer vision now. when brought face to face with his great trial and he turned to God as fervently as Cromwell had done and recognized in him the Lord God of Hosts who should lead the armies to victory and restore integrity and tram guilty to the nation.
