The players have demonstrated the true ball spirit and the material for a fast nine is available At the meeting held last Tuesday night a keen interest was manifested by the business men, and there is no question about their standing behind a proposition which will do so much towards putting Casa Grande on the baseball map Of the southwest. Their interest coupled with the fact that this rapid ly growing town throngs with en- thusiastic ball fans, means success in getting into the league.

THE POSTAL SERVICE OF CHINA

The report of the Chinese Postal administration for 1912, recently is sued, shows that steady and grati- flying progress has been made. The striking feature of the year is, per haps, the enormous development of the newspaper business. This is largely due, of course to the over throw of the Manchu dynasty. At the present time the courier lines are about 1900 miles long; the na- tive boat lines about 5000 miles; the steamer lines, 9,700 miles, and the railway lines 6,000. The native pos tai hongs, or agencies. still carry on operations. thing which is signifi- cant of the tenacity of institutions in China. Nevertheless, their acti- vities are being greatly curtailed and in all probability will disappear be- fore very long, One of the longest courier lines is 3,677 miles long, ex- tending from the Eastern railway base to the extreme western boun- dary of the republic.

OUR RAILROADS.

Ex-President Taft spoke good word at New Haven when he said that the prosperity of New England tests on the prosperity of it's prin Cipal railroad-that New England cannot hope to thrive if it's trans portation facilities decay
 The truth is a commonplace one, but there is too great a tendency to forget commonplace truths. No small par of recent comment con- cerning the New Haven is appar- ently based on the assumption that there is public profit in bounding a management which is doing what it can to rectify past mistakes.

ages were in Alabama, Georgia and
Mississippi, $4.30, $3.50 and $40. re-
spectively, compared with $3.50 in
Rhode Island, $3.50 In New Hamp-
shire and $3.50 in New Jersey, the
highest.
Other state averages were: Penn

Indiana, Illinois and Nebraska. $500;
Massachusetts,. Missouri. Wyoming
and Colorado. $500; Nevada, Wash

aged below $500.
The average hog price to producers

less than that on that date last year.
In all the important hog-producing
states from Ohio to Kansas the de-
cline was from 3Oc to 40c, but In some
Of the New England states and in
practically all the South except Texas
and Oklahoma, the prices were higher
than a year ago.

have made up my mind that it shall
