 '"The result has been that while we have stretches of improved high ways in every State, these have been constructed not with a view tc facilitating national transportation but to caring for local needs.
 No one will deny that improved roads whatever constructed are of val ue but this important fact must al ways be borne in mind: The present Federal Aid Act not only does not consider interstate needs but it pro- vides specifically that States must care for maintenance. The result is that the further the road programme is extended the more State funds must funds become available for construc- tion in partnership with the Govern ment
 If State funds are not used, then the entire investment is wasted in the course of few years.

 No State departmen is equipped to care for these needs first. The road problem is so large that they have more than they can attend to in intrastate problems. A na- tional highway system such as that provided for in the Townsend bill is seriously needed, and not until such a plan is in operation under Federal highway commission will our road programme be fully rounded out"

an uncertain unstable basis to be discarded and generally that has been accomplished. Labor no longer to be regarded a commodity. The idea has not quite been carried out Like commodities labor is still affected by the of supply and de- mand, yet generally there is minimum wage based on standard of living Profits accommodate themselves to wages but they still not stable but are dependent upon the whim greed of the ployer. Profit may be whatever the public be made to pay This is where the interest of the public in the industrial situation comes in
 But the present footing of wages seems to be a pretty secure one. We can think of forward one. Any other. it would seem, would be possible only by an entire change of industrial system. under which the remuneration of workers will cease to be wages; under which the relation between employer and employe will be dssolved when the labor of the workman shall be merged with the capital of the ployer and upon both dividend will be That is the only another footing imagine.

Phoenix Labor

There good many ways of knowing that Phoenix is growing with great rapidity We know it by the school population which has increased 2S5 per cent in nine years We know it by the growing number of telephone boxes and by the growth of the city directory
 But another remarkable illustration of it is the steadily and rapidly lengthening of the Labor Day parade The parade of yesterday imposing showing wonderful growth in every trade with in the last year. The Typographical Union has grown about fifteen per cent within the last year. Obviously it's growth is much slower than that of other trades for the printing susceptible of expansion than almost any other. The number of newspaper plants has not increased; the job shops well the newspapers though growing
 A much greater increase has taken place in the building trades than in any other, but in all of them there has been growth in which is fairly curately reflected the growth of Phoenix.
 This is not an industrial town, but there is none in the country except industrial town that could have made such demonstration as Phoenix made yesterday. There is no other town of 40,0o0, indus trial otherwise that could have turned out so long a procession of prosperous and intelligent working men and women

There is nothing would do for brethren of the press when we are asked in gentemanly to do it.

 That seemed to him to be too narrow, especially for a mine named the Abe Lincoln The reporter said that he had been reared by gody parents of the republican faith the fear and worship of the great war president so he resolved the doubt in his favor and made it feet" instead of inches" He confessed that at one time he the point of declaring that the vein 60 miles wide. but on second thought he feared that such vein would fit into the topography conformation and general geological conditions of the country He then decided to keep the side walls of the vein within the limits of the Wickenburg mining district.

PETER PLAYS POSSUM By the Story Lady

Peter was lying in the hammock when he heard papa and mama com ing out on the porch So he shut his eyes and lay very still and pretended to be sound asleep. He often picked up interesting bits of news this way. How sound asleep Peter is" said papa.
 T wonder" said mama minute late, If Peter realizes how selfish he is with the twins. If I give them all cookies he gulps his down and then begs the twins out of theirs.
 'How do you know?" asked papa. Did you catch him at it?"
 This morning when I gave them some, Prissy asked me to give Peter two. I thought her very sweet and generous and asked her why. She said that if Peter had two, perhaps they could get theirs eaten by the time he did and they wouldn't have to divide with him"
 Well. shall thrash him for it? I won't have those girls of mine abused.
 "No, but I wish you would explain to him how selfish and ungentlemanly it is"
 T wonder said papa a few mo- ments later if we ought to kill that spider above Peters head?"
 Peter jumped about ten feet and looked in vain for the spider. When he turned around papa and mama were laughing at him.
 Why, hello, son. Are you awake ?' said papa.

THE OWLS BOOST


 Sam Blythe once said that Tn Cali fornia everything is political, except politics, and politics is personal"
 It is barely possible that if Sam had studied Arizona politics as much as he had the California type, ne would have considered that he had picked the wrong state.
 Politics in Arizona is personal, in a large measure. Witness the personal following that used to trail around aft CT George W. P. Hunt It was, to be sure, partly a patronage following, but the personal element was there, and still is there. The present governor has large personal following, as has Congressman Hayden, and others who might be mentioned.
 All of which brings us down to q consideration of the gossip that is going about in political circles regard ing the possible candidates for the democratic nomination for governor rext year.
 Politics are ticking right merrily in some sections, it is the favorite indoor sport for many people in the capital city, and even those in the remote fast nesses of the outer reaches of the state are already sitting up and taking notice of the fact that only a few months hence the game will warm up, and that early backfires sometimes nos only make lot of smoke but have the result of stopping bigger conflagra- tions.
 There is Tony Jones, for instance who is getting back from business trip to pay Paris, France) to look into the wool market, and all cooked and primed to look into the gubern1- torial market when he arrives. But Tony, so many of both his friends and ] others say. is no longer in the spot light, the famous mule deal seems ic have sort of switched the light. Then there is Hugh Campbell. Hugh | is big man, physically and so far as | the party is concerned. but he has been in the legislature a long time | Then he comes from a small commun- l ity, and besides, he has announced 1 that in his opinion it will be Tony Johns upon whom the lightning will strike

The association rightly believes that such difficulties as exist may best be overcome by those who are confronted by them A considerable part of the trouble in this world has been caused by misdirected hepfulness-- by outside uplifters and reformers.
