ESTIMATE FOR J. s. N 1918 OVER
 BILLION
Greatest Increases in Cost of Run ming Government in Connection With Carrying Out Policy of Ma tional Defense.

WASHINGTON, D. c. Dec. A. Estimates of the expense of all branches of the government for the fiscal year 1918, for which the ses- sion of congress assembling must appropriate funds, total $1,268, TIE, 1884
 This sum is exclusive of $325, 100000 to be appropriated for the postal ser. vice, which is expected to be re turned to the postal revenue and sink ing fund.
 An appropriation of $60,000,000, an increase of $84,000,000 over the cur rent year, representing the increased cost of government.
 Increases in compensation and num- bers of employees are found in the es- inmates of all branches of the govern ment and officials have attempted policy of pairing down proposals for new projects which, with the excep- tion of national defense expenditures, are to meet the growth of the coun- try and the burdens thrust upon the creases in the estimates carrying out the policy for national defense. The army estimate is 40 millions greater, and the navy estimate, 67 millions greater than before.
 Will Ask for $500, o,ooo,o 900.
 WASHINGTON, Dec. 4. = Esti- mates for maintaining and strengthen ing the army and navy during the fiscal year 1918 indicate that congress will be asked this winter to provide about $S00,O00,000 for that purpose. The total estimates are $757 7,5S4 ,562 for both departments, according to statements made by navy officials be- fore the house committee now consid- ering the bill. This foreshadowed large supplementary estimates later. A similar situation exists in the war department.

HANGMAN'S MOOSE NJ LONGER
 POTENT

PHOENIX, Dec. 13.-The board of parole and pardon will hold a meet ing this afternoon at 4:30 to consider the application of six condemned mur- derers for ccmmutation of sentences from death to life Imprisonment. The date for the execution of Robert Day ton Tally who was convicted of tue hui der of Jesse Danner at Miami, has heen set for next Friday, Dec. 15.
 All of the six were convicted and sentenced prior to the adoption of the amendment abolshing capital punishm ent, and there being some question as to its being retroactive, the beard has thought it best to con sider the applications and recommend the commutation, as this will be per fectiy legal, and in accordance with the will of the people in abolishing the death penalty.
 Of the other five under the death sentence. Henry and Willis Azbill were convicted of the murder of young man whom they had induced to travel with them and after killing him threw his body into a small lake near Williams and, weighted his body so that it would not rise to the sur face. c.sJ
 Charles Dingle and Ben Merriwether. two negro soldiers, were convicted of killing a chauffeur in Cochise county, for the purpose of stealing his auto. The sixth is Frank Garcia, convicted in Maricopa county of killing another Mexican

THE PUBLIC LAND.

The heyday of the pioneer is long past, but there's still considerable pioneering go- ing on The "homesteader' hasn't vanish ed, by any means. Last year his tribe took up more than Io,ooo,ooo acres of public land. And there's still enough left to last several years at the same rate.
 Secretary Lane says we have about 25o,- 100000 acres of public land yet unoccupied. Some of it never will be good for anything. Most of it Is in the ''arid region" the sort of land we used to call "desert" But the sec retary says the greater part of it can be irri- gated and water is all that's needed to make it as fruitful as any of the wonderful soil al- ready reclaimed
 The typical pioneer of today is setting up his homestead on the government irriga- ton projects. He is taking 40 or So acres instead of the quarter section of old. And he finds that with a water supply under his con trol. and with modern scientific, intensive methods of agriculture, he can often get more out of 40 acres than his grandfather got out of whole section.
 It is a common notion that "all the good land has been taken up.' It requires only little knowledge of government reclamation work to realize that lands even now regarded by old-fashioned farmers as utterly hopeless will yet yield a bountiful living to hundreds of thousands of Americans.

YOU CAN'T EAT COTTON.


 The high price of cotton has been life 7 saver to the south this year. Planters who were just about down and out have been able to pay longstanding debts and lay in sur plus. Negroes who scarcely ever had any thing but calico to wear are buying forty dol lar suits and six dollar shirts-and Ford cars. In the dry states, where they cannot put their easy earnings into drink, they are buying mahogany furniture
 All this is cheerful to hear, especially in contrast to the tales of distress told two years ago. But it has its dangerous aspect, and those who have the interest of the south at heart are becoming gravely concerned.S
 The trouble with the south heretofore has been that it put all its trust in cotton and tobacco, and did not raise enough food to live on. Then in bad year, 1t not only went short on its big money-mdking crop, but it didn't have anything to eat without going in debt for 1t. Of late movement towards diversified farming has met with gratifying results. If the south Is to have real and last ing prosperity, this must continue. If the high price of cotton this year should lead the farmer to plant cotton exclusively again, it would be a a,great calamity. In the first place, If he doesn't plant cotton to the fence corners, he stands a better chance of keeping the prices up than if he does. And in the sec ond place, if he is self-supporting because of his other crops, he can hold out for bet ter price than if he is utterly dependent upon one product. And in the third place, if he is self-supporting, i'll bad cotton year he can at least hold his own without mortgaging the future.

Opposition to the efforts of the suffra- gists to obtain from congress the passage of national woman suffrage amendment as stunned concrete form in Washington last week. when women from 25 states met at the convention of the National Association Op- posed to Woman Suffrage. The delegates made 1t clear that they considered the wo- man suffrage party to represent only a small minority of the women of the country The keynote speech of the convention was made by Mrs Arthur M. Dodge of New York, president of the national association. ''In this convention we do most earnestly pro- test against federal amendment for woman suffrage upon the demand of the minority of the wonen," said Mrs. Dodge After 6 years of organized effort woman suffrage is a minority movement. The assumption that minority has right to dictate to the un- willing or indifferent majority does not be- long to a democracy

The peace talk now reported from Ger many may amount to nothing, but it is en- couraging as an assurance that the matter of ending the terrible war is in the minds of the Germans. The greatest war in the worlds history has now been going on for two years and half without either side to the conflict making much headway in demon strating ability to dominate. The hope should be that the great war wi1l-be ended in such a manner as to insure the world against the recurrence of another one like it.
