TOLERABlE PRICES.

Our retail prices for food products according to the federal department of labor the beginning of the until last April 126 per cent The rise is still greater now. We might put it at much 15 or 16 per cent.
 But considered in comparison with the experience of other nations that is trivial In every neutral country in Europe prices have risen much higher. In Norway for instance the increase is 69 cent Most of the bel hgerent countries still unfortunate. British food prices said to be 55 cent higher than before the In Germany, prices 100 per cent higher, and in Austria, 500 per cent higher.
 Moreover, the secretary of labor says that in the United States wages have risen than prices Thus while food is cheaper here than anywhere else the world, we have more to buy with. Never were high prices SC tolerabe in America today.

 FIRST WORK UPON
 NEW ARIZONA ROAD
Establish two Camps Between Jerome and Mesa - Third Camp Soon to Be Made Near Granite Reef.

PRESCOTT, Oct. 16.- An arrival yesterday from Verde valley reported that two camps of engineers had been established and are now locating the line of the new Mesa and Clarkdale railway, the first party being in the Middle Verde and the other in the can yon below Camp Verde
 It was also stated that third camp has been established at Granite Reef, north of Mesa, and all are working north toward Clarkdale. Over 100 men are in the three camps, their movements indicating a purpose from which it was believed the final sur veys are being made, from which grad ing of the roadbed will follow.
 It was also learned that as long ago as last April a reconnoitering of the route was made on a preliminary sur vey, but the real intent was strictly shielded from the public under pre-
 
 consideration. Every engineer, it is said, was strictly warned not to dis close the motive for this character of field work, but few months later the filing of certain articles of intention with the corporation commission of the state was interpreted as but the forerunner of a railroad being under consideration. Actual construction, however, is contemplated. In fact, it was given out at one of the camps that the final survey is being made, and in few months actual construc- tion will be under headway. Other important developments in opening up new country to railroad traffic, it is intimated, will affect the region north of Verde valley, and may ex- tend as far north as Navajo county, where the big timber belt and new coal fields are waiting to be tapped

KEEPING OUT SUBMARINES.

There probably nothing for the United States to do as serespectng neutral but to refuse compli ance with the Allies request that deny harborage submarines of belgerent powers.
 The Allies are willing to have their submarines barred as we'll as their foes' technical neutrality be satisfied But the principle they advocate would in practice be onesided directed against Germany neutrality requires refuse it, just we have refused plea to stop shipping munitions to belligerents because acquescence in that would really benefit only Germany therefore be unneural in spirit.
 The example of Holland is urged in favor of such general barring of submarines by neurals Holland has yielded but her acceptance of the principle is merely nominal She still maintains the right to shelter beger submarines when damaged driven by bad weather and to receive and provision them in her colonies when they their bases Those exceptions practically nulify the principle England France seek establish. The attitude would justify us in harborng Uboats Deutschland and the U-5S at any time
 There is yelled threat in the proposal made by the Allies. They point out the danger to our own sub marines if admit others to territorial waters. Attacking craft, the allied warsps may destroy by mistake recognition of such vessels is diff fcut To that only give the answer that Germany when she warned merchant shipping away from British the ground that her warships might unwittingly sink vessels instead of the enemys We told Germany that the duty of her commanders not to make mistakes British and French have the same duty as regards submarines.
 This reasoning sound matters stand. And yet looking the future, it be admitted that the policy repudiate may appear desirable hereafter spite of all international lawyers may say sub like other warships and act like them be treated like them. There many problems yet be solved regarding the legal of this type of sea fighter.
 Nothing would suit the American people better than be able keep all alien submarines forever from shores. If future time gain such aim by agreement of all the powers bar belligerent submarines from neutral waters. shall probably do The trouble simply that the time is not opportune.
