GARFIELD WILL
 bE IN PHOENIX TOMORROW A. M,

By a change in the plans of Hon. James R. Garfield, he will arrive in Phoenix over the Southern Pacific in stead of the Santa Fe tomorrow morn ing. That will give him about one hour more time in this valley, which he will doubtless devote to rest before start ing. And he will need it for if he fol- lows out the program mapped out for him by his host, MT. Dwight B. Heard, Tuesday will be strenuous day for him. as indicated by his itinerary, pub lished elsewhere.
 It will end with the big mass meet
 ing at the r. NJ c. A. stadium. at 1880 o'clock in the evening. There is little doubt that the stadium will be filled to capacity for Mr Garfield is one speaker that almost everybody in this valley will want to hear, regardless of polit ical prejudices or the partisan ques tions that may be discussed, for above all, MT. Garfield like the people of Ar izona, is intensely American WhateV- CT views he may express will be his honest convictions regarding those things that every American places above political prestige or party fealty, good logical reasons that form the mo- tive of his party alignment.
 No mature reader needs enlightment as to the personality of MT Garfield who has been a conspicuous figure in national affairs for many years To younger readers it may be timely to explain that he is a son of former president James A. Garfield and in more recent years held the office of secretary of the interior in the cabinet of President Roosevelt. He was one of ! the latter's closest advisors and per sonal friends then and since then and | his loyal supporter in the progressive cause of four years ago.
 Though well known to all older res | idents, il is proper to call the attention | of all new corners, both old and young
 to the fact that MT Garfields admin | istraton of the office of secretary o1 | the interior occurred during the mos1 strenuous period of construction worl i on the Salt river reclamation project | that as the highest official in the recla-
 nation service as well as all other bu
 reaus of that department, Mir. Garfield in the natural order of things gave great deal of personal attention to thi!

 informed on Arizona matters, if no
 more so. than any other man of ma
 tional activities.
 Mir. Garfield is an entsftaining plat
 form speaker, in vigorous middle If
 and a man of wide business as well a political experience. His analysis o the issues that now confront the Amer

PENNSYLVANIA |. FREED AGAIN OF THE RUNAN|ANS
Republican A. p. Leased Wlre1

The European war has virtually been
 brought to the shores of the United States. In the vicinity of Nantucket off the Massachusetts coast, a German submarine-or possibly more than one Sunday, sent to the bottom of the
 Atlantic ocean at least four British steamers and two neutral vessels-one Dutch and the other Norwegian. The sunken boats were the Stephano,
 Strathdene, West Point and Kingston, flying the British flag, and the Bloom ersdi1k, Dutch and Christian Knudson, Norwegian. So far as is known there
 were no fatalities. The Stephano car
 ried S3 passengers, all of whom were saved.
 Probably the most important devel- opment in the European battle fronts
 is the forced withdrawal of Rumanian troops near Kronstadt Fogaras and Hermannstadt in the fact of superior forces. The Austro Germans have re- captured Kronstadt, the most important city in Pennsylvania. In the Dobrudja region, the Russians and Rumanians are advancing southward against the l Teutonic allies.
 l In Macedonia the contending sides | have been engaged for the most part in artillery duels. A like condition pre- vails op the Austro- Italian front On the western front in France the 1 British have captured all of the town
 of Le Sars, and also made gains north | and northeast of Courcellette and south 1 west of Guedecourt. The Germans have recaptured trenches that had been talk
 en from them north of Les Boeufs.
