TRANSATLANTIC WIRELESS

Two three weeks ago wireless operator on the roof Of the Wanamaker building in New York stepped up to telephone transmiter of a new type and saio quietly: Hello, Philadelphia! This is the New York store. Send over some stationery" A moment later came reply fin the Morse code The operator at the "other end of the ether" supplied with a receiver but no ransmitter had caught the words perfectly For the first time had talked through the air from New York to Philadelphia
 Now comes assurance that within a year we shah be able to talk by wireless the Atlantic Testify ing the other day before the wireless commission of the Canadian government. Godfrey Isaacs managing director of the Marconi company declared that appar atus in hand demonstrated that the distance of communication depends entirely on the power of the machine and in a few months Mr. Marconi will have the equipment and power to telephone from Maine to New York He predicts that wireless telephony be just easy talk between London and Buenos Aires between Paris Boston as to send the usual dots and dasbes.
 This announcement is particularly impressive be cause ol attempts to use transatlantic cables as toe prone wires have failed
 IT within the present year man not only flies across the Atlantic, but talks across it. 1914 will indeed be notable in history

 While it seems unlikely that Ulster will take the field o stop Irish parliament from sitting in Dublin is quite possible that Irish National volunteers would start hoslites if anything robbed them of their parliament The course of the home rule bin through the house of lords is therefore attended with more in. terestthan any other piece legislation has been for decades.

 The present fashions are to some extent extreme. Because they and unusual they have caused much comment The only serious objection is to the marrow skirt which prevents woman from walking safely or comfortably. only the pessimistic condemn the styles as whole And why the modern dress which recognizes frankly that is bped is any worse than the decolletage worn for years evening dress is hard to

 Dr. Richardson has also word to say for Feminism!

Believing that the name of Little Neck is too suggestive of certain species of clan, resident Of a com munity of that name over on Long Island have started an agitation to have 1t changed. One of the leaders in the movement sets forth the senti- ments of the Little Neckers as fol- lows "Tne principal reason that We are urging the change of name is that whenever we go to the city the people ask us the price of clans. Then there is a place called Great Neck beyond us. and strangers at once con- cludo that the place is greater than ours. Any other name would be ac- ceptable to us. We don't care what we are rechristened A rose by any other name will smell as sweet But we people of Little Neck strenuously object to having our community as- sociated with a popular brand of clam"

ARIZONA RAILROADS ASSESSED AT VALUE
 OF $9Oj j256,923
State Tax Commission Increases Appraisal on All Roads in
 State By $6,000,000.

PHOENIX. July .13-Adding over S6.OOO,OoO to the- assessed valuation of the railroad property of the state. the tax commission yesterday an- nounced the total appraisement at S9O .256, ,923.5O. for a tatal mileage of 2.243.5 miles of railway
 The most noticeable increase is in the case of the Ray and Gila Valley railroad, the property value of which is fixed at S114500 per mile, against valuation of $55,0O0 for 1913. The property was appraised at S65.00O per mile last year, but this figure was afterward reduced by the com mission sitting as a board of equaliz- ation. The Ray short line which runs from Kelvin to Ray is 9.34 miles 1 in length, and is one of the heaviest earning roads in the state.
 The main lines of the Southern Pa cihc and the Santa Fe railroad are a5- sessed at Che same figure, $6A0Jo per mile. and the Arizona and New Mex Iico. and main line of the El Paso 1 and Southwestern are fixed at s5o- l 900 per mile. From these figures the rates of valuation diminish the lowest being S2.5OO per mile. lthe value fixed for the Congress Consolidated Mines property)
 As usual Cochise leads the list of counties with a mileage of il2.8 and an assessed valuation Of $16.356,7lO Yayapai is second with 35O1 miles and Sl0.637215 valuation with Mari copa third, the mileage in this county being 27409. valued at S10,250,75500
 The total increase over last year S6.126.O13.OO, is due more to increas ed earnings Of the railroads than tc new construction the latter item hay ling added only 1A25 miles to ths Hines in the state Most of this in crease was in Yavapai county where . the construction of the Verde Tun mel and Shelter road from Jerome tC Clarkdale added approximately Il miles to the mileage in Yavapa county

VOTERS
SHOULD beware
Party Should Be Represented
on National Committee
BY a Republican

The Republicans of Oregon are en-
titled to have a Republican named as
the National Republican Committee
man from this State. C. W. Ackerson,
who claims to be a Republican, is a
candidate. He registered as Progress
sive January s, 1914. Then signed petit
ton of H. w. Coe to be Progressive
National Committeeman. Then can
celled his registration as Progress
sive and registered as Republican
and Immediately filed his candidacy
for membership on Republican Nation
al Committee. Has been an intimate
and convenient understudy of the Pro
gressive National Committeeman and
seems now to be in combination with
him in an attempt to shanghai the
Republican organization. His candi-
dacy is being actively backed by par
ties hostile to the Republican party
and having personal interests and pri-
vate personal grudges to serve. His
erratic and excitable temperament has
frequently led him to flood the col
umns of the press with violent attacks
upon the Republican party and vicious
personal abuse Of prominent Republi-
cans and lifelong residents of the
State.
1t is a grave abuse for parties who
are not Republican to register as SUCH
1t is a graver abuse for outsiders to
attempt the capture Of political par
ty to crafty personal grudge and
to promote party discord. 1t is an
abuse against which fair-minded men
of all parties will rise in protest. We
can never have a reunited party by
pushing to the front political hotheads
and men who are political reformers
simply for the sake of office. Having
been a Republican only twenty-four
hours when he announced his candi-
dacy for the highest honorary position
in the gift of the party, is some indi-
cation of what Mr.. Ackerson's motive
was in registering as a Republican.
As Hon. Ralph E. Williams is the only
Republican who Is a candidate for
Republican National Committeeman,
we feel warranted in urging all loyal
Republicans in the state to give him
their earnest and enthusiastic support.
