 The particularly harmful thing in the above quo- tation, harmful because it is gross misrepresenta- tion, and is readily recognized by the dulest citizen such, is the statement, We have made money out of it (the war), but are giving it back-all that have made and billions more" Who has made money out of the and who is giving it back?

Heard and other prominent speakers were present and delivered addresses, and short talks The object of the meeting was to make a survey of the crops planted, and about to be planted There is no more important work undertaken at any time than that of conservation of food stuffs. All farmers who were unable to attend last evening are urged to be out and on hand tonight when a simi- lar meeting will be held at the Rural school Charts from the various dis tricts will be on hand, and any reports from farmers on the Southside will be received. and noted thereon.
 The meeting last evening was a very notable success and the thanks of those in charge was extended to the many citizens and ranchers who CO., operated in making it such and to the members of the Merchants band, who furnished music The band was spok- en of by the visitors as worthy of such an enterprising place as Tempe and it's managers P O. Porfiro and F. D. Or viedo, were congratulated upon their work.

Too Much Froth

Orators and newspaper writers who appeal to the sentiment of people in high sounding Fourth July, spread-eagle terms making blunder. The American people have got beyond that It is only humorous disgustingly ridiculous to them ac- cordng to the state of their temper the they hear it.

 Their country is at and that is sufficient. Why it is at war is matter indifference to them. Though they may doubt the righteousness or morality of Decaturs famous ultra patriotic utterance they find themselves accepting it and that is enough.

MANY PAY TRIBUTE
 ID BELOVED DEAD

MESA, June 23-The Alma Ward chapel was filled to it's doors yester- day morning with hundreds of friends Of Miss Ada Standage, one of the most popular young women of Mesa, who departed this life on Friday, June 15, at Virgin, Utah. to which place she had been taken by her mother in an effort to overcome a rundown condition pro- duced by too close attention to her du- ties at the local telephone exchange. Miss Standage had been in the employ of the Mountain States Telephone company for the last five years and there was no year of the five that she could not have taken her vacation, but
 so great was her devotion to her work
 and so many were her plans for using
 her salary in unselfish giving, that she
 cared all too little for rest. Finally her
 parents almost forced her to go to
 Utah and visit relatives, the mother
 going along with the beloved daughter,
 but typhoid fever developed and in the
 little town of Virgin, 90 miles from a railroad, one of earth's sweetest spirits
 went home to its Maker.
 Ada Standage was of exceptional disposition in one particular As one woman said yesterday, she was never known to say a harsh word about any one. The speaker told how that Occa- sionally while in charge of the toll lines. some impatient person would say
 mean cutting things: Miss Standage
 would afterWard tell her about the re-
 mark and though the lovely eyes would fill, there was never an unkind word. { This spirit together with her splendid
 devotion to her church and to whatev- CT object of mercy came her way. won for her the close and abiding love of ! the people in Mesa the place of her { birth and where her life was spent The funeral services were in charge
 of Bishop Ed. Hunsaker President Stapley spoke briefly and President , Lesueur and Jos Stewart offered pray 1 CT. There was special music. Flowers there were in profusion, the telephone girls bringing beautiful wreath stand ing on a pedestal and shoulder high. i The Telephone company sent a spray
 fastened on an arch and large enough in itself to cover the handsome casket. Besides these there were floral tributes innumerable.

TEMPE DOES WELL
 BY THE RED CROSS

TEMPE, June 23.-Reports from the different committees late last evening show that the Red Cross subscriptions will exceed the amount allotted to this district. The amount in the hands of the committee exceeds $2,930, and it is estimated when a full report is compiled and all subscriptions in. that it will touch the $3,000 mark.
 The features of the campaign is the thorough manner in which it was car ried on. All committee captains, with their full pro rata of volunteers, were out early, and continued the work until it was fully completed. A most thor ough canvass of every house in town was made. and every farm house vis- ited. and much credit is due the var ious committees. and volunteers. An other feature was the scarcity of pledges, or notes, probably not more than s100 was thusly gotten. It was practically all cash" Tempe has thus again proven that when some worthy cause is presented it's people get right in and push. Many of the busiest bus mess men just up and left their places of business and joined the small corps of workers.

THE POLITICS OF H. G. WELLS

to figure as writer and thinker he showed that healthy discomfort that alone leads progress and very drifed into the socialist and Fabian England. For number of years he active socialist until, gradually. he began to perceive shortcomings in that program Finally his political creed came into rule by aristocracy.
 By this, however, he did not mean to that the descendants of, say Nell Gwynne, must of sity be peers and rule England from the house of Lords, did he pin his faith to plutocracy. He meant aristocracy in the true sense of the word, namely the best and highest minds of the nation should make the laws for the nation. Under the highest kind of republican government, both Lloyd George the of poor Welshman, and A. J. Bal four, of the house of Cecil would find their places in the country's government by virtue of the merit and ability that is theirs That is the highest sort of republicanism. So far as I know, that is still Wells belief today.-Colliers Weekly.

TO PATRONS OF THE ALAMO AND
OPERA HOUSE.

The war has hit the motion pict-
ure theatres very hard, and a large
percentage of the smaller houses
will no doubt be driven out of bust
ness. There is the tax on seating
capacity of $4,000. There is the
new tax on admissions, lie on sc
ticket, lie on 10c ticket and &c on
a 15c ticket. There is the war in
come tax and the surtaX on profits.
Then the State, county and city
taxes. In addition to these extraor-
binary burdens of taxation every
single thing needed for the motion
picture entertainment has gone up
in price. The cost of raw stock has
increased. The cost Of production
has increased and the Government
has added another tax which means
15c on every reel of film we show.
The operating expenses have increas-
ed. Labor costs more than ever.
The management of this threatre
proposes to meet it's obligations to
the government cheerfully and con-
scientiously. The increase in the
price of admission has been as slight
as possible and was decided on after
a long hesitation and only when 1T
became absolutely necessary If we
wanted to stay in business.
The prices at Alamo will remain
the same, sc and 10c, and the Opera
House sc, 10c and 15c.
