The United States reclamation service, organized on June 17. 1902, has expended to date about $S1 1.OO0.- 600 derived from the proceeds of sales of public lands in sixteen arid states. The bureau has been active ly engaged upon the construction of twenty eight projects, three of which are on Indian reservations.
 In d period of ten years of actual construction the service has dug 5000 miles of canals many of which carry whole rivers like the Truckee river in Nevada. North Platte river in Wyoming and the Salt river in Arizona The seventy-seven tunnels excavated have an aggregate length of 22A miles. One of these in Colo rado passes through mountain 1000 feet high and six miles thick, and another in Utah penetrates the Wa satch range for four miles Both of these tunnels change physical geo. sraphy by transferring streams from one drainage area to another. It has thrown up eighty-tWo miles of IeVees and dikes to protect lowlands from overflow. Among its large structures are the highest dam in the world in Shoshone river, Wyoming, and the second largest storage dam in the world-the Roosevelt in Arizona. There have been built 697 miles of wagon road in mountainous and heretofore inaccessible regions. It has in operation 2331 miles of tele- phones, 351 miles of transmission lines carrying electricity for use in construction and for lighting and power service to a dozen cities.

Supreme Dictator Walter F.. Dorn of San Francisco. who took charge of the meeting declined to present any charg- es and further declined to allow Gre gier the privilege of the floor
 At this the meeting became pan demonium, and for nearly an hour there was confusion, in which demands for Cregier were made from every side. At the end of three hours of argument, Dorn and Dictator General J. J. Davis of Pttsburg left the hall. Really nothing was accomplished except to show that the local lodge was willing to divorce itself from the supreme body and go it alone.'
 There are 5000 members of the Loyal Order of Moose in Los Angeles. The local lodge pays S7000 annually to the supreme body. Recently the supreme body ordered the local lodge to open the charter and reduce the initiation fee from s100 to S5. This the local lodge refused to dO

It makes a reduction of 136 from the old Base rate. This applies to the first 1000 feet In the average residence gas is used in excess of 2,000 feet per month, so that a considerable reduction is effected by the Secondary rate of $140, which applies to all gas consumed in excess of 2,000 feet and under 5000 feet
 The most notable new rate is the S100 gas rate, which will apply to all gas in ex- cess of 10000 cubic feet. All fuel, including wood, coal and fuel oil has been steadily advancing in cost in Phoenix. The problem of heating large stores, of flee bui d d. s, hotels and resid ences is becoming an ever-increasing one Simul- taneously with the low gas rate, a new gas heating system---the Rector system---has been introduced in Phoenix, giving 10096 efficient, automatically controlled and ideal heating system. Several of these systems have been installed this winter, and it is certain that with the low rate of S1 % for gas to large consumers hundreds of homes and business houses will be heated with gas before next winter The heating problem Will be solved TOT all time, ana the adVanc- ing cost of fuel will hold no terrors for Phoenix
 Many establishments, such as bakeries, restaurants, hotels, candy manufacturers, blacksmith and machine shops will be able to use the $1.00 gas in large quantities in their industries, whereas they have not been able to use gas heretofore. This will mean saving of thousands of dollars to these in- dustries in Phoenix. It will mean that other similar industries will be attracted to Phoe- nix by the low gas rate. It will aid mate rially in the prosperity and p-building of our city. Cooperate with every movement to build Phoenix. Spread the knowledge that Phoenix has $l00 Commercial Gas and the Lowest Gas Rates in Arizona.

Mysteries of Everyday Life.

In recent interview Alexander Graham Bell was asked if he un- derstood precisely how telephone conveys the sound of hum6n voice. His answer was: No. only know what is done. do net know how it is accomplished"
 It will be recalled that Bell gave to Kelvin the instruments used in the first demonstration of teleera- phy at the Philadelphia centennial in 1876. It was many years later when Kelvin said that he knew no more as to the nature of electricity than he knew Whsn he first began to work with il.
 From Franklin to Edison master minds among us have done wonder ful things with cells and dynamos. generators and transformers. di- recting the interplay of dreadful elemental forces as inscrutable as they are majestic. And still we do not know what electricity is. A woman finds that tons and tons of certain ore produce a fraction of gram of radium and we go to work with it and behold the potent ous results it achieves, but we do not know what it is.

There seems to be growing in favor of emitting from business letters all such terms of salutation and respect as Dear Sir "Gentlemen," Yours truly" Very sincerely" etc. If we had leisure to figure it out we have no doubt we could show that enough time which is the same as money is wasted on these empty and meaningless forms in business cor respondence every day of the year to found college, finance a base ball club or do some other great public work. People are cutting the corners pretty fine nowadays. and wherever a fraction of a cent can be saved it is done. It will be a long time yet. however before the young lover omits any terms of endearment from his letters to his sweetheart. When love comes in, efficiency jumps out of the win dow and skedaddes for the tall timber. and we, for one, are glad this is so.
