the issue We must take the necessary
action even though it does bring dis
comfort to the few. 1t seems to me
that the federal government, owing to
its control through the interstate om-
merce act, should take the initiative
in making laws to protect railroad
r~ights-of-way, railroad property, and
cities from the worthless tramp class.
When any body of men can commit
de%predations with apparent impunity
the effect on others through influence
of association or suggestion becomes a
matter of grave concern to us. For
our immediate and future good we
should do all in our power to make
things as uncomfortable for the GRIM
inal tramp element in their evil pur-
suits as possible. Many boys attract
ed by the nearby camp fire outside the
village, town or city have been
brought in touch with the criminal
tramp and as a result have become
hopelessly incorrigible criminals. So
ciety must take some step in self--pro-
lection. People who see the need Of
measures to protect not only the rail
roads but themselves as we'll hesitate
about giving their approval to sending
tramps to Jail. The reason is that in
Jail such offenders become a burden
upon the taxpayers. Police officials
understanding the attitude Of the peo-
pie they serve have fallen into the
practice Of dealing with the tramp ele-
ment by telling them to "move on"
get out of town." It is a case of
"Pass my orchard by and purloin my
neighbours fruit at will". This shift
ing process in whatever way it is &C.
complished, is selfish and wrong, but
from the taxpayers viewpoint, entire
ly human. The futility and the in
justice Of such a system is readily ap-
parent to anyone who stops to give it
a moments thought. Under this sys.
tenn matters are rapidly reaching the
point where a national constabulary
will be needed. The tramp, the root
of the trespass evil, has become a co.
lossus too big to be handled by any
county or state; the evil can only be
controlled by the powerful, far-reach'
ing arm of the federal government.
In considering the necessity of g
federal trespass law it should be made
clear to society that there is a funda'
mental issue at stake in the threats Of
T soap-box speakers and other classes Of
a criminal intent. We now have ar
unusual need for a vigorously acting
7 department of justice to meet the
{ growing lawlessness of predatory
| gangs. Unless something is done
soon the near future will bring US face
2 to face with even a graver problem
namely, the rule Of cities by mobs. A
: vigorous policy should be undertaken
of making persons and property saf'

t rantly open. When men organize TO

ton wide and the application OF the
remedy must be nation wide. The
necessity of a remedy for the evil is
reaching the point OF an emergency,
and there is a pressing iced for the
enactment of a federal trespass law
which will be an effective aid to peace
officials in putting an end to the tres
pass evil. Such a law would be of as
much benefit to the numerous persons
upon whom the tramps prey as it
would be to the railroads. Both ship
per and consignee are annoyed when a
shipment reaches it's destination in a
pilfered condition, though the loss may
be so small as not to justify a claim.
Many shipments that are not actually
robbed are tempered with and soiled
and rendered unstable. 1t is the per
son who uses the railroads whom the
t~respess law would benefit. 1t would
also benefit the farmers and the small
villages and towns, as they would not
be so liable to raids from this preying,
thieving element.
Railroads are in business to sell
transportation. Their business is a
legitimate one and they have a right
to ask and to receive the protection
that is afforded to every other bust
ness, which, a taxpayers, is due to
them. The public looks approvingly
at the theft Of transportation, but
were the things which other business
institutions have for sale stolen as op-
emily, and as extensively as transpor-
tation is stolen from the railroads a
mighty cry for protection would go up
from the very PURGE which look on
complacently at the losses of the rail-
roads. And not only does the Grimm.
al tramp exact a heavy toll from the
railroads in the way of transpor'
tation, but he is also the cause of thei,
having to pay out many hundred thou.
sands Of dollars each year in claims
No other business interest is subjected
to the depredations, losses and drains
that the railroad companies suffer. Il
is the clear duty of congress to enact
law which will give the railroads re-
lief and at the same, time benefit al
those persons doing business will

through which they pass as well. W.

What's Developing

of a young tree with plenty of room is to straighten itself.
 That part of the valley, north of the city and northeast as far as Scottsdale is dotted with young olive orchards and they add much to the beauty of the landscape, as they will little later to the bank ac counts of their owners. Many have been set out on the Leppla ranch and there is beautiful and large young orchard on the Keets ranch, directly east of it.
 On the Security Acres" property near Scottsdale, 40 acres of olives have been planted this year. The trees are planted between rows of apricot and other deciduous trees, though in one section of the tract the owner has given the ground over entirely to olives. These are only a few of the tracts, the others are smaller, which will soon be covered with that soft gray green foliage which will delight the eyes of generations to come.
 There is another development in progress in that part of the valley of which little is known It is the realization of the dream of many years of w. J. Murphy. It is Citrus Homes'' Three hundred acres north of the Arizona canal and northwest of Ingleside are being cleared and leveled to be subdivided into ten and twenty acre tracts, which will be planted to citrus trees It is under the protection of Camel Back so that it is be- , 1f tropical fruits and plants will flourish here without any other protection than that afforded by the Crouch ing Camel The temperature of that region, which stretches for near ly a mile along the base of the mountain, has been taken for several years. During the cold weather of two years ago when the mercury descended to 16 degrees above zero at the Helm nurseries and through out the orange growing district self recording thermometers in the Citrus Homes" tract regist tered 34 above. For this season it is de sired that the tract be planted to lemons rather than to the hardier or ange and grapefruit.
 The citrus trees throughout that whole region have made a remark able growth this year, and the trees are generally well laden, much heavi- CT than for several years. The old Trotter or ClasOn grapefruit orchard is worth going many miles to sec There was never before the prospect of such a crop of the golden fruit which is already taking on color and already has that delightful flavor which has made Salt River valley grapefruit famous from the Atlantic to the Pacific. One could not be- lieve without seeing that one tree could bear so many of those golden

The State Fair

With the Arizona only little more than three weeks distant, the prospects that it will be better than It that the pro gram will be better, and it that the ex- hbits will be varied, and, believed will be generally of a higher quality.
 Because the legislature did make as liberal appropriation for the fair had been made in for lner years, an impression that would be curtailed and that. in consequence there would be reduced attendance. The fair not be in any way affected by the lack of q sufficient appro- priation. Money enough will be available for all needs so that visitor to the that the legislature treated that in niggardly manner.
 Some have thought that because of prohibition the attendance would be reduced. Such supposi- ton IS libel upon the citizenship of Arizona. No doubt in times past, some persons it an oc- caslon to come to Phoenix for a dehauch and who will now have to to point outside the state. But we think that one such person in thousand is high estimate, so that if all them should absent themselves from the fair this year. they would not be missed at all. At the most, :here would not be more than such absentees
 Now and then croaker has been heard to say that on account of hard times many who have at tended the earlier fairs will not be able to come The fact is, times The late northern Arizona fair at Prescott had a record attendance and we believe that with the attractions to be offered the Fair the record will be broken here.
 It is not to be forgotten that previous to every territorial or State Fair held in Arizona pess mlsts have been found who reason why IL was going to fall below the previous fair Yet every fair has surpassed it's predecessor

 For some reason the orange trees in the orchard are not bearing heavi- ly this year, but seeing what a grapefruit crop there is, that is not material.
 This will be a good year for the citrus growers, orange and grape fruit, in this valley. They will have the early, the cream of the mar ket of the United States, all to themselves. Their reputation has beeu already made. California need not be taken into account. It is not a competitor of the Salt River valley m the early and the best market. Its fruit even in competition lacks the color and flavor of the local fruit and always commands a lower price.
 Hitherto Florida grapefruit and or anges have been in competition, but will not be so this year. Florida shippers made a mistake last year by shipping inferior and insect in Tested fruit, so that it is said ban has been placed upon it. It is in quarantine

Spread of Olive Orchards in Valley North of the City-Promising Outlook This Fall for Growers of Citrus Fruits

If one spends all his time in town he will not find out much about the Salt River valley To get an idea of it's greatness. it's beauty and it's opportu- mites he must make his way among it's broad fields and it's laden orchards. The only orchards by the way which are now laden are the orange, the grape fruit and the olive. These orchards are for the most part found along the foot hills north of the city and the foot hills of the mountains on the south side. The greater development, be- cause the industry is older there, is in the north.
 But this article has more to do with the olive industry which is undergoing more rapid development than any other just now hundreds of acres having been planted within the last two years, the greater area this year.
 The writer made tour the other day of a part of the olive growing district under the direction of C. I. Helm, the nurseryman whose business keeps him in close touch with the citrus and olive development. It may be an exaggeration, but not much of a one. to say that while he may not note the fall of every sparrow, he notes the setting out of every olive orange, grapefruit, lemon and date palm tree in the valley. The trees GO not, of course, all come from his nursery, but he is none the less interested in them.
 He entered into the nursery busi- ness just this side of the Sleeping Camel'' mountain. about seven years ago, so that by this time he is only in full swing. As this story relates mainly to olive growing de- velopment. it is unnecessary here to speak of his acres of orange and lemon trees from the smallest seed lingS to the grafted trees of sever al varieties ready for planting: of the acres of lath covering to pro- tect growing plants from frost;; of the process of grating and balling It is the olive tree department that engages attention.

 The olive has the reputation of being a crooked tree. That reputa- tion is pretty generally sustained, but it is less the fault of the tree than of the man who cares for it. At the Helm nursery the straight trees are selected, leaving the crooked ones which are then straighteEed by me- chanical means, though the tendency

WASHlNGTON.-Steam turbines may be sub stituted for gasoline oil engines cruis- Ing in future American submarines.

As yet no definite decision has been reached but the of internal combustion engines for submarine work has been difficult to overcome that navy sgners are seriously seeking a substitute
 A steam propelled submarine was built for the navy more than decade ago, but proved so hot when the fires lighted she was not ac- cepted, and never left her dock. Many French submarines employ steam engines successfully. and it is understood that scheme, details which have not been made public, has been evolved by American navy engineers which promises better results.
 Engine difficulties of both submarines and aero planes led to the recent visit of Henry Ford, the automobile manufacturer. to Secretary Daniels. A statement of the problems encountered being prepared Mr. Ford's information.
