C[ObE-M|AM| ROAD
 BUSIEST IN STATE


 Something will have to be done to relieve the traffic congestion on the roads in the Globe Miami district. The road between Globe and Miami is more dcnsely thronged than any other thoroughfare in the state There is not a city street so congested. There arc about 100 automobiles engaged in car rying passengers between the two towns, to say nothing of the private automobiles which rush back and forth between the towns. One stage line carries between 500 and 700 pas sengers every twelve hours Some time ago Mir. Ferguson, the engineer of the state corporation commission, had oc- casiOn to make an estimate of the traffic and found that a large number of machines passed a given point every minute.
 Valentine and Wilson are putting in d system Of busses. There are four of them carrying each from 16 to 36 pas sengers. They have applied to the corporation commission to put in a fare for busses, somewhat lower than the regular stage fare, and the matter has been set by the board for hearing at 10 o'clock next Tuesday morning. The stage fare between the two points is 35 cents; the proposed bus fare is 20 cents.

 call himself baron. But in Germany
 he could not do so.
 These noble families in the central
 empires, by the system of majorats
 which I have described. hold large
 landed estates, and naturally exert a
 great influence upon their laborers.
 As a rule. the system of tenant farm
 ing does not exist, that is. estates are
 not leased to small farmers--as was
 the custom in Ireland and is still in
 England-but estates are worked as
 great agricultural enterprises under
 superintendents appointed by the pro- prietor This system, impossible in
 America or even in England, is possi-
 ble in the central empires. where the
 villages are full of peasants, who not so many generations ago were serfs, attached to the land, and who lived in wholesome fear of the landed pro- prietors.
 This is the first method by which i influence is exercised on the popula-
 tion There is also the restricted fran cl1ise or circle voting, which gives the control of the franchise to few rich proprietors.
 AS q rule, the oldest son enters the army as an officer and may continue there: but, if he has not displayed any special aptitude for the military pro- fession he retires and manages his estate. These estates are calculated by their proprietor to give at least 1 ger cent interest income on the value of the land. Many younger sons, after
 short term of service in the army, usually as officers and not as "ein 5airieer." leave the army and enter eirlcmacy or some other branch of the government service. The offices of jGdge, district attorney, and so on. not being elective. this career-as well as that leading to the position of landrat ana oyer president of province-is open to those who, because they be- long to old Prussian landed families,

landrats and other officials of the in terior department how effectively to use this machinery in order to gull the people to the advantage of the govern- ment and to keep them in ignorance of anything which might tend to turn them against the system
 Countless Orders and Decorations
 Besides the rat system there is, of course. the system of decorations. Countless orders and decorations are given in Germany. At the head is the order of the Black Eagle: there is the order of the Red Eagle, the Prussian order of the Crown, the orders Pour le Merite," the order of the House of Hohenzolern and many others. In each of the twenty five states there are also orders, distinctions and dec orations.
 These orders, in turn, are divided into numerous classes. For instance, d man can have the Red Eagle order of the first. second, third or fourth class, and these may be complicated with q laurel crown. with an oak crown, with swords, and with stars, and so on Even domestic servants who have served long time in one family re- ceive ordees; faithful postmen and other officials who have never ap- peared on the police books for having made statements against the govern

ment or the army are sure if receiv- ing some sort of order
 Once d year in Berlin a great fes- tival is held called the ~ordensfest.' 7 when all who hold orders or decora- tons of any kind are invited to a great banquet. The butler who has served for twenty-five years there rubs shoulders with the diplomat who has received Black Eagle for adding a colony to the German empire, and the faithful cook may be seated near an officer who has obtained Pour le Marite" for sinking an enemy Warship. All this in one sense is democratic, but in it's effect it tends to induce the plain people to be satisfied with a piece of ribbon instead of the right to vote, and to make them upholders of system by which they are deprived of any opportunity to make Q real ad- vance in life

 All the newspapers are subject to control as in no other country. h the first place, their proprietors are subject to the influence of the rat system, as is every other German. and the news paper proprietor whose sons, perhaps, enter the army whose daughters may be married to naval officers or offic- ials, and who seeks for his sons pro- motion as judge, states attorney or the like has to be very careful that the utterances of his newspaper do not prevent his promotion in the social scale or interfere with the career of his family and relations.
 Since the war, while a preventive censure does not exist in Germany, nevertheless a newspaper may be sur pressed at villa fearful punishment for newspaper, which. by being sup pressed for, say, five days or a week, , has it's business affairs thrown into the utmost confusion and suffers an enormous direct loss.
 Germany's Reptile" Press
 Many Of the larger newspapers are either owner of influenced by concerns like the Krupps. For instance, during this war, all news coming from Ger many to other countries has been fur nished by either the Overseas or Transocean service, both news agencies in which the Krupps are large stock holders. The smaller newspapers are Influenced directly by the government
 In the middle ages there was often declared a sort of truce to prevent fighting in a city, which was called the 'burgfrieden,' or peace of the city 9 and at the beginning of this war all political parties were supposed to de- clare sort of -burgfrieden'' and net try to obtain any political advantage.
 There was, therefore intense indig- nation among the social democrats of Germany when it was discovered, in the spring of 1916, that the minister of the interior was making arrange ments to send out news service to be furnished free to the smaller news paper. It was learned further that he was engaged in instructing the various

 Besides the rat system and the mili- tary system there exists the enormous mass of Prussian officials. In coun- try where so many things are under government control these officials are almost immeasurably more numerous than in other countries. In Prussia for example. all the railways are gov crnment-oWned,w with the exception of one road about sixty miles long and a few small branch roads This army of officials are retainers of the govern ment, and not only, of course, them selves refrain from criticizing the sys- tenn, but use their influence upon the members of their own family and all with whom they come in contact. They are subject to trial in special secret courts, and one of them who dared in any way to criticize the existing sys tenn would not for long remain a mem Der of it. Of course, the members of
