ing the valley that they are on the map. Basket at first is fast as is Betts at short. The whole team is good and it will make it hot for the Coyotes this afternoon. The Sugarkings are encour- aged by the knowledge that they have defeated the Phoenix boys and with this in their minds. they will try again. But they will find it quite different playing on the fast Indian grounds than on their own slow grounds at Glendale
 The Coyotes are improving and are ready for the fray. They intend to wallop the Sugarkings this afternoon The main reason for their defeat at Glendale was because the grounds were so slow that a ball that would have been a single or an out on any half way decent grounds was homer or at least a three bagger. However, the game this afternoon will be a good one. The game starts at three o'clock.

Attempt on Part of South to Pit Phoenix Against Yuma in Highway Squab- ble - Ketcherside's Nice Letter
BY SCOOP

That Phoenix and Yuma are at each others threats over the at titude of the capital city in endors- ing transcontinental highway routes, js the contention of some much in terviewed individuals in the south of the state, and the matter is be- ing given great publicity there. Phoe- nix is accused of trying to sit on the fence-favQr both the southern or Borderland route, and still keep the cities of the north of Arizona on the guest list.
 It is practically threatened that if Phoenix does not at once drop ne- gotiations with the north, Tucson and Yuma will be connected by a direct line, leaving the capital city dangling up here in the desert some place, forty miles from road, and only about forty inches from the hot place,
 This is exciting.
 Dr. J. A. Ketcherside, president of the Ocean to Ocean Highway Asso- citations writes us a cordial letter in which he outlines splendid plan for continuing the good publicity work jnaugurated last year by Col. Sel- lers of Albuquerque. Says the new president:
 As weather conditions have i'm proved on such an extent that tra- vel across the ocean to Ocean High way is more feasible I will resume the publication of the weekly bull letins of road conditions.
 q am pleased to say that the bridge across the Colorado river at this point is now being completed, and will be open for travel about April 1st
 The residents of Imperial and San Diego counties, through private sub scriptions, have built plank road across the sand hills between Holt vile and Yuma, making it possible to cut out the Mammoth wash. A stage is making three round trips a week over this route, and the driver tells me that he makes the trip ir three and one-half to four hours.
 Yuma county is doing some worE on the road between Yuma and Dome which has been considered one oi the worst stretches in the entire length of the Ocean to Ocean high. way. The work being done now vii put the road in good condition fol summer travel
 Yuma county has just sold hel half million dollar road bonds, anC permanent work will be commenced just as soon as the money is avail able which will probably be within sitxy days. and the road should b, completed by the first of next year

WHITE S0X ARE
 GOING STRONG
Big Leaguers Will Play in Yuma Tuesday and Day Following Against Mesa at Riverside Park-Col- lins Same Old Demon
{ Special to The Republican,

{ Special to The Republican,
 MESA, March 26.-Manager Lan gowskl received wire today from the Chicago White Sox stating that the team is in first class condition and will leave San Francisco Mon day and play in Yuma Tuesday. Make arrangements for hotel and meals while team is in Phoenix" the telegram continues, "The White Sox going at top speed. Eddie Collins going the best of his life" The ar engagements have been perfected for meeting the big league men upon Pacific station and for their trans portation to the grounds.
 | Manager Langowski is leaving no stone unturned to get his men in /, first class condition for the event and he is promising first class ex- hibition with the big leaguers. The game will be started with Faber and Cicotte and Schalk for the Mesa team. However, before the game is finished full local team will be placed in the field against the vii sitors
 Last year, when the team ap- peared at this place, it will be re- called that there was some criticism for the reason that a big league bat tery was not placed in the lineup with the locals. However, Langow- ski. who had four pitchers on the staff of the locals had promised each of his men that they would be given Q tryout and this was done There was not a complaint after the game for the reason that while the score stood I5 to 3 in favor of the Chicago team it was a clean brand of base ball and throughout the nine innings there was no semblance of horse play on the part of the big leaguers. It is a well demonstrated fact that the time is too near the opening of the league season for the players to in- stunned to venture that the local team is match for the Chicago team yet the exhibition here last seasor produced good brand of baseball and the same thing will undoubtedly hold good this year.
 The appearance of the celebrated Eddie Collins in the game at second will be an opportunity of a lifetim, to see the man who is acclaimed a. the greatest star in baseball. Collin! first came into prominence as ; baseball player at Columbia uni 1. versity where he also played football He excelled in both branches O athletics and finally was persuade, to play with the Athletics in 1906 , For a couple of years he was kept ol the bench, but six seasons ago re ceived a chance to play on the te gular team and at once made good

LAST NIGHT 0f
 AUTO EXHIBIT
Throttles Down to Ninety Before the Final Spurt - Live Prospects Numerous--Some Changes in Booths

The auto show slowed up to ninety the final spurt tonight, when every thing will be running in full blast again. Only a fair crowd was in attendance last evening, and the lights were dimmed early The hall will be well cleaned out today, the decorations adjusted. and the cars given an added polish for the last night of the display.
 Thousands have filed through the hall in the four nights it has been open, but tonights attendance will probably be equal to that of any two evenings so far At least, that lis the expectation, and preparations theory.
 The records in the little note books the. salesmen carry are growing apace. One dealer said last night he hadn't realized the number of prospects that there might be con cealed in the ordinary citizen. The | interest in motor cars-always am- OuIltlnS tO SOIl Ol IdSClndtloIl- was never so keen as now. Reduc- tons in prices have popularized au- tomobiles beyond the widest dreams of the makers. Light. economical models are very well represented at the Phoenix show-although there is a sprinkling of cars that are the absolute height of class.
 Some changes occurred in the line up yesterday. The Chalmers Master Six was taken off the floor for its new owner, Joe Lobit, and a light six was substituted. One of the Hupmobiles' has disappeared. Ed Rudolph has placed a Ford Sedan his most luxurious car model in the booth along with a model T that has been his only exhibit thus far.

TOAST TO LAUGHTER

Here's to laughter, the sunshine of
the soul, the happiness of the heart,
the leaven of youth, the privilege of
purity, the echo of innocence, the treas
ure of the humble, the wealth of the
poor, the bead of the cup Of pleasure; ;
it dispels detection, banishes blues
and mangles. melancholy; for it's the
foe of woe, the destroyer of depres-
sion, the enemy Of grief; it is what
kings envy peasants, plutocrats envy
the poor, the guilty envy the innocent;
it's the sheen on the silver of smiles,
the ripple on the waters delight; the
CLINT of the gold of gladness; without
it humor would be dumb, wit would
wither dimples would disappear and
smiles would shrivel, for it's a glow of
clean conscience, the voice of a pure
soul, the birth cry of mirth, the swan
song Of sadness.

HE'S ALL RIGHT

A Madison correspondent in writing
to the Leader in speaking of Gov.
| Philip says:
SLOWLY but none the less surely.
politicians and people generally, who
are keeping in close touch with affairs
at the state capitol, are revising their
opinions of Gov. E. L. Philip. This
statement applies particularly to two
persons interested. The first is that
group of ultra-progressives, who saw
in the election of Philip the complete
downfall of the State of Wisconsin.
The second is comprised of various in
terests, who believed that with the
election of the present governor,
things would be easy sailing for them
that they would be able to put
across" anything they desired.
The first group have found, much to
their surprise, that Gov. Philip is a
progressive; that he believes in sane
progress along practical lines; that he
intends no revolution of state affairs,
but rather a REIMBURSEMENT of the
business side of the state government.
Some are somewhat chagrined over
chance to shout TORY" or reaction
ary" For so long a time it was
dinned into the ears of all, who would
listen, that Philip was a representa-
tive of 'big business and that if elect
ed he would Immediately reorganize
fnr hn al @f+
called vested interests that many
persons actually believed just that 1t
is needless to say that already his &C
tlons as governor have won for him
the confidence and support of many
who have heretofore regarded him as
an enemy of the state.
After the election, the second group,
who also believed much that has been
said about Philip, sat back with a
smile on their respective faces and
breathed a sigh of relief. Their next
act was to get their ears to the
ground. They were waiting for "the
word They wanted to get the as
surance that NOW everything is all
right" They are perhaps more sur
prlsed than any one elese for they too
have found that the accusations hurl-
ed at the governor during the cam
palgn are not true and they are not
altogether pleased. They have learn
ed from experience that it is the in
tention of the new governor to give to
the people of this state the "best sane
ly progressive government that it is
possible for them to have" and that
where the interests of the people and
the interests of private individuals or
business conflict, the decision will be
made in favor of the former and not
the latter.

PARCEL POST FOR
RURAL ROUTES

According to a recent amendment
of the parcel post laws the insurance
and G. o. d. service is to be extended
to patrons on rural routes the same
as to the patrons of the postoffice.
Notice of the passing of this law was
recently received in the form of a
bulletin at the local postoffice. The
new law states that postmasters hav-
ing rural delivery service shall see
that the rural carriers are equipped
with the rural post scales, maps and
guides, and also furnish them with a
supply of insurance and c. 0. d. tags
These tags are to be given to any
rural patron who wishes to send a
parcel. The consignor will fill out the
card and the carrier will then detach
the stub, which will be retained by
the shipper as a receipt.
