DELAYS CHANCE
 IN FLOUR RATES
Important Reductions Or dered by Interstate Com merce Commission Will Not Take Effect Until October 1

The new flour rates, which were to have become effective August l, have been postponed for a period of sixty days, taking effect october l. Notice of modification of the order by the interstate commerce commission was received yesterday at the offices of the corporation commission.
 The case was taken before the inter state commerce commission by the cor poration commission in a complaint against the Arizona and New Mexico railroad company, last spring, with the result that on May F the commission issued an order reducing the rates on flour from producing points in Kansas. Nebraska, Colorado and Oklahoma to all points in Arizona. The reductions ordered amount on the average to fifty per cent.
 Because of the reduction ordered. a protest signed by over fifty business men of Tucson was filed with the com- mission several weeks ago. The pro- test attacked the policy of the con- mission and it's attitude toward the railroads. Beginning October l, the new rates will be effective for a period of two years. No reason for the delay was given in the notice sent out by the interstate commerce commission.

RECEPTION HELD FOR
 TEMPERANCE WORKERS

Upwards of 150 people gathered at the Y. NJ. C. A. plaza last evening to attend the reception given in honor of Eugene w. Chafin. independent nominee for United States senator from Arizona and Charles J. Hall, who is managing MT. Chafin's cam paign.
 After a brief address of welcome by B. w. Getsinger, MT. Chafin was called upon for a speech. In his re- marks he brought out the argument that an independent senator may of ten be very influential in the pass age of legislation. and stated that if elected to the senate he would use every effort to secure the adoption of bill prohibiting the liquor traf- fife in the United States. He was followed by Mir. Hall, who made one of his inimitable speeches, and was listened to with much interest
 After the speech making an in- formal reception was held in honor of the gentlemen. at which an op- pOrtunity was given those present to join the Phoenix Chafin club.

 Walter Montague. one of the best known playrights of the country, per-
 svhally presented it at the Auditor inm, Los Angeles, about ten weeks ago, and since that time it has been produced in twenty of the largest cities in America, and always with the same result-unlimited discussion by pulpit and press.
 Ir the two weeks the playIet was on in the City of Angels more than l20,o00 paid admission to see what it was all about. and the Los An geles Times devoted pages of space to a discussion of the social ele- .ments involved, and the other papers of that city gave it extended space and consideration.
 Some idea may be gained as to 1 the thesis from the dedicatory note ! from Mir. Montague. which, in part is as follows: '"The New Chief ot Police,' d story taken from life. is respectfully dedicated to the host of good fellows of both sexes, who while believing in majority rule feel that the minority have certain de- l finite rights, and who regret the lack of intelligence in these pseudo reformers, who will not admit a
 middle ground, but must rule or ruin"

 no brief for either side of the ques-
 tion, but merely place it before the public as a point of view-each to accept or condemn as each sees il
