TRUE INWARDNESS OF THE
VERA CRUZ INCIDENT.

red the capture of Vera Cruz.
Men from one Of our ships had
been arrested at Tampico and
had been discharged with an
apology. But our Admiral de-
manded a salute. which was re-
fused. Thereupon the President
went to Congress, asking au.
thority to use the armed forces
Of the United States. Without
waiting for the passage Of the
<esolution, Vera Cruz was SELF.
ed. 1t appeared that a shipload
Of ammunition for Huerta was
about to enter that port. There
was a natural opposition to this
invasion and a battle occurred
In which nineteen Americans
and over a hundred Mexicans
were killed. This, of course,
was war. Our dead soldiers
were praised for dying like
heroes In a war Of service.
Later, we retired from Vera
Cruz, giving up this noble war
fare. We had not obtained the
salute which was demanded.
We had not obtained repara-
ton for affronts. The ship with
ammunition which could not
land at Vera Cruz had. soon
landed at another port, and Its
cargo was delivered to Huerta
without interference. Recently
the naked truth was admitted
by a Cabinet officer. We are
now informed that I'VE did not

| The taxpayers who pay for the con
 struction of highways under the meas
 ure will know that the money will not
 have been spent in vain.
 Arizona, the youngest state of the Union. needs roads. am in favor oi having our next legislature pass an amount equal to that which the state
 shall receive from the federal govern. ment. viz, s7l,750.
 The total assessed valuation of the state of Arizona for taxation purposes, is $486, 1000, 900. Based on these fig ures for such an amount, as would be necessary to meet the federal require ments, levy of one and one half cents to every s100 valuation would be adequate. This would be equal to fifteen cents on every 5000 of valua- tion. Surely such a minimum assess ment against the taxpayers would more than return its dividend in the form of permanent improvements.
 In five years the state of Arizona, under the bill, will have received from the federal government S1,076.250. The value to the state. however, is not so much to be calculated according to the amount of money given to it by the federal government but in the ob- ject lesson of active cooperation on the part of the nation as a whole with its integral parts. It means that Ari- zona will start right; that the young est state will adopt a policy of scienti- fic road building, instead of the hit and-miss method which has prevailed and it also means that millions of dollars will be saved to the taxpayers through these very facts of business efficiency as applied to public works.
 In Cochise county. there are now five mail routes. One of the five is a rural free delivery route and another is in contemplation through the Sul phur Springs Valley. a wide, fertile expanse which extends for many miles

 believe that the various counties of the state, their needs and wishes investigated. should have a post road started and that road work should be made to conform to a general standard that established in the construction of the post road In this manner a net work of good roads would gradual ly, like spiders web, spread itself over the entire state of Arizona and would place this, the premier common wealth in many lines. in the leading rank of states which are building and maintaining good roads

 r The young people of the cast are working hard to make the production of this very difficult play the best which the high school has ever given. An enjoyable evening is promised to those who appreciate a really good play.
 The play is full of action and inter- est. Its sentimental story. It's strongly drawn characters and its dramatic pos abilities made it favorite play of the latter part of the past century. It is splendid example of the development from melodrama to the modern pie blem-play. The play will always re- main a model of its kind It is terse: we'll constructed, full of movement and human interest

BOWEN TELLS MANY ADVANTAGES FROM
 RURAL POST ROADS

In response to a request from the Studebaker Magazine, published by the manufacturers of the Studebaker automobile and very widely read in the auto trade channels, John ]. Bow. en, of the Bisbee Auto company, has written the following letter. which, for its expression on the value of the pro- posed post road construction, is hese printed.
 It follows:
 In reply to your request for an ex- precision of opinion on the Rural Post Road measure, passer by the last ses- sion of Congress. I will first state that I am unqualifiedly in favor of the bill. It is. in my opinion, an effort along the proper lines and one which will react to the lasting benefit of the en- tire country.
 I feel that all thinking taxpayers s should endorse the movement and use every honorable means, at their dis posal, to induce their respective states to take advantage of the provisions in the bill and start the construction of roads as soon as possible.
 The trouble with the great propor- tion of road building in the past has been in the neglect of the builders the people-to provide for its mainten- ance. I am of the opinion that the federal measure takes this into con sideratfon as much as it does the in- itial work and is, therefore. an excep- tionally good feature on the bill. Even the most permanent of improvements necessitate maintenance and this is particularly so of the best made road.
