To the Editor OF The Times:
l have paid much attention TO the
retirement and pensions for superan-
nuated employees of the Government.
and always find that great stress Is laid
upon the statement that it will result
in the rapid promotion Of the younger
men and women. That appears to be
the milk in the cocOanut- There are
many old employees who should be re
tired and given pensions. but there
should be no age limit. The old ones
should be retained as long as they are
able to give satisfaction. I know OF
many who are seventy years of age and
over who are more capable. more act
i've. and can do more and better work
than many who are less Than half their
age The Government should not be
deprived of their services. There :,
also a large number of young persons
in the Government service who are not
worth the salt that goes in their bread
but they are retained therein by Con
gressional or other influence. Some OF
them should be retired, but not with
pensions.

If practicable. will some of your read
ers kindly inform me, through the
columns of your paper why Southern
| ladies take 50 little interest in the CUB
;s t OF woman's suffrage? They GER
tainly are the equals of their sisters
of the North in beauty, intelligence,
wealth and refinement Is It because
they desire to retain their charming
menners, the love of home and its sur
discussions of the subject, Southern
| ladies are severely absent at the va
rious conventions, meetings, etc, of the
adherents of suffrage The accounts OF
| the numerous contentious, bickerinss
and ordinations at these meetings that
are endeavori1G TO convince masculine
humanity that it is essential for the
preservation of the Government that
the women OF the nation should eXeT-
else the right uf suffrage, are simply
disgracefuL Is this lack of interest
by the Southern ladies because they
are more refined and less progressive
| than their Northern sisters, or Is IL
because they believe that their duties
are better performed by their remaining
ar the fireside. caring for the education
of their children and preparing them
for an honorable Christian life? This
mornings papers contain an account
of a bitter controversy at recent meet
ing which seems to do injustice to the
lady residents, who with few exceptions.
seldom participate in the discussion Of
woman suffrage. II education is one
of the reasons for Northern sisters be
coming so enthusiastic in the cause o.
suffrage and forgetting the duties Of
home and maternity. X would seem
that the sooner less attention Is given
to education the better. Give 2 glance
TO the foreign element, especially the
Hebrews, and notice their large fam
lilies in comparison to the American
women. Then take a walk on + street
during the afternoon and observe the
diminutive specimens of the feminine
sex promenading in all the glories OF
the butterfly. Are the American ladies
deterioratinS as a race? Thess re-
flecticns are simply the scintillatinE

WILD ANIMAL CIRCUS HERE AFTER ELECTION

General contracting agent w. K Peck of the Al G. Barnes Wild Animal circus, is here today arranging for the appearance of the Barnes show in Phoenix on Wednesday, November f.
 Wherein does the wild animal cir GUS differ from the old time regula- tion circus was asked?'
 "The Barnes circus is different be- cause the entire entertainment offered is given by trained animals-largely wild animals" replied MT. Peck.
 Al G. Barnes, the wild animal train ing wizard and proprietor of the Barnes shows, was the originator of the wild animal circus, launching the innova tion nine years ago. That the new from the public is attested by the fact his circus now ranks as the largest animal show in the world
 For thirty five years, Mir. Barnes has been trainer of wild animals, and early in his career decided that the public would welcome an exclusive, clean, wholesome entertainment given by educated animals, and to that pur- pose he bent his efforts" Every one of the 400 acting animals now with this great show, has been trained under his personal supervision-the greatest number ever assembled in one collec tiOn.'
 Big, thrilling, sensational wild ami nal features predominate on the pro- gran-lions, tigers. leopards, jaguars pumas and bears being shown in great ! groups. Twenty four African lions ap- | pear in the arena at one time under one trainers direction Elephants, camels zebras, seals, sea lions, kangaroos dogs. goats, monkeys and a troupe o1 | 800 beautiful horses and ponies are 2

 A leader of organized labor said last night that before election such action would probably be taken by most of the unions in the state. He said that the action of the convention rot only misrepresented the senti- ment of a majority of members of organized labor in Arizona but it had tended to bring organized labor into disrepute.
 Tt was effected" said he, "by the Rartenders' union, which ought not to belong to the federation. It is not a basic principle of unionism for it's members to be working for the inter est of the employer.

With Dick Heflin pitching superb ball, the Monroe school baseball team defeated the Braves yesterday at the Monroe field. The score was 13 to 3, and was mostly that way because of the twirling. Heflin was tapped for but five hits, while the men behind him hit terrifically, for fourteen solid safeties.
