HIGHS GROCERY
DRAWS RECORD
DEBUT CROWD
New Pure Food Department Of
Store, Hardly Able to Handle
Rush at Opening.

When an advertisement draws sc
many customers to the new depart
ment of a well-known department
store that that new department has
to close its doors every few minutes
and beseech 'one at "a time, please,
at the top of its voice. it seems fairly
evident that the new department Is
being thoroughly introduced.
That was precisely the case Mon
day with the pure food grocery de-
partment at the ]. M. High Compa
nys store, announced in an eight :
page section of The Sunday Ameri-
can. An enormous crowd packed the
new department, and looked it over
and purchased lavish1y of its goods
and went on its way rejoicing
The opening, while most successful
began under difficulties. The difficult
ties arose when 1t came time to open
the doors. There were people stand :
Ing against he doors, waiting to gs:
in. Furthermore, they reached well
out into the street, and a good many
of them had market baskets.
Crowds Swarm In.
But after the doors had yielded. all
was plain sailing. The opening then
evolved itself into contest of expert
clerks, which should serve the great
est number of shoppers in the short
est time.
At noon the contest still was in
progress, and several clerks had given
way to reinforcements. The attack
ing party, on the other hand, seemed
to be gathering in force.
The scene Of this activity was a
we'll Lighted. immaculate, airy, great
room in the High Store Annex, open
ing principally on Hunter street.
There would have been plenty of room
for few hundred customers at a
time.
The tall shelves were packed with
beautifully fresh-looking cans and
jars and boxes, spick and span from
the original cartons. All the exposed
glass cases shielded them against the
slightest, chance Of dust--an appar-
emily superfuous precaution, but one
insisted on in the pure food grocery.
Specialize on Service.
There really isn't much use in
talking about how much business we
expect to do said the manager of
the new department. Just take a
look at that crowd. That's the an
swer. And that isn't all of 1t. We
are going to specialize on delivery

A Proposed Political Investment

The Bisbee Review believes that while this
government without disregard of proprety, may
pay the government of Colombia $4,000 O0O it
should not apologize to that government for the
revolt of Panama and the loss of the territory
which includes the canal zone owned by us
or, as some think, held in trust by for Great
Britain The Review proceeds ably to show that
Colombia invited the Panamanian revolt and that
it deserved the loss of what it is complaining of
having lost No mention is made by the Review of any
act by us connecting with the revolt. Only our
futile effort to deal fairly and generously with
resulting in the acquisition of the canal zone were
with Panama.
Plainly, on this showing Colombia no
apology. Nor is there showing of anything else
that grasping government Why. therefore,
should we pay it s25,0OOOOO or any other sum? If
we owe it money it apology also.
An apology would be humiliang, thinks the
to Colombia in consequence of the Panama revolt
be in itself acknowledgment that still owed
apology? We owe Colombia nothing Any sum
might pay it would be political investment
by the present administration, an investment of
the nations honor as well as its money 1t would
be very foolish investment

Some Necessary Legislation

In states, California among them it is a
crime for drunken man to run automobile 1t
ought to be regarded felony in every state,
punishable by nothing less than term in the pen
itentiary. We believe that the laws of this state
are silent the subject but trust that the next
legislature will amend them that those who
menace life and limb in this manner may be
properly punished Meanwhile, We who live in the
towns have a partial remedy hand. We may
enact an ordinance defining the offense as a mis-
demeanor. punishable by the stiffest penalty that
may be imposed under the charter And, until
such an ordinance is passed in Phoenix, offenders
may be taken up for drunkenness and confined in
misdemeanor. term the chain gang or in the
ock-breaking enclosure would have deterrent
effect
The other day two automobile drivers were
arrested, following accidents In one case boy
was hurt and in the other. city property was
damaged. The first arrested claimed that he
was not drunk and that the accident that preceded
his arrest might have happened in any event.
But, whether either of these drivers
admit intoxicaton, the suspicion that one was
drunk and the certainty that the other was, en-

ticise the city commission for its action in the
enactment of the liquor license ordinance
This has not been a general and ndiscrimnate
tack upon the commission for whose members
have the highest regard citizens and whose gen.

will be indiscriminate than its criticism of it

In the of the liquor license ordinance,
believe that the majority of the commission

self to be sampeded by what it conceived to be a
public clamor but which turned out to be only
artificial created by the very interests which
have succeeded in securing from it such IA

harm will result.

out by The Republican at the time that the real

All Mexico is divided parts,
than there were in Gaul before Caesar began the
work of cementing them into We have what

ritory and Villa territory, both pretty well defined

Zapata declares that his war against Huerta
will be continued without intermssion against Car

ton of his war against Madero just as that was
a continuation of his against Diaz.
Carranza is so establishing himself that he can
better handicap Villa and at the same time allow
himself easy avenue of escape into the United
States if Villa should succeed in overcoming his
handicaps Because of the quarrel between these
two leaders prompted by the jealousy of Carranza,
his fear of villa and his consciousness of his own
weakness, the movement against Mexico City has
been suspended. Villa, the only revolutionary lead

the revolution has been deprived of ammunition
