MT. Bakers Army

In the present circumstances standing army of 3OOOOo notwithstanding that foremost of military strategist that incontrovertible authority war, Newton C. Baker thinks we ought to have at least 5oO,OOO. What MI. Baker would do with 5OOOOO is not clear. The country was never more farther re- moved from a prospect of except with Mexico. than it is and it is inconceivable that long he present administration is in power we could not become involved a with Mexico, unless Mexico should invade the United States in force. A mere nurderous raid like that Columbus N. N, or those which have taken place periodically in the Big Bend ountry would be sufficient provocaton. The administration could be affected only by Mexican invasion with d view territorial conquest and then we suppose we should propose to leave it to arbi- ration.
 The Mexicans are not likely to attempt that very soon, not until this administration will have become only an unpleasant American memory and then it will be too late for them if by that time the Xiii kenny fight has left any survivors among them Secretary Baker evidently does 5OOOoO sol diers for war but for continuance the European demonstration, share of the international army The Americans have not yet advanced that far toward jnternatonalism.
 If the country needed 5OO,OOO or 5,OOOOOO for It's protection, the people would gladly endorse such army but they would hardly consent to the maintenance of a corporals guard for the purpose of keeping up a European parade.
 We have found out that it does not take as long to raise army thought it would. It could not of course, be done over night. It also turned out that lost many precious months in preparation in training but we lost much time in equipping our men after they were trained. For the next few years, could meet any emergency with an ample force of trained men and if they were not equipped that would be the fault of the war department As 10 the future may have something better than standing army-universal military training and service
 That, of course would not afford us facilities for parades and demonstrations abroad-t would afford places for swivel chair officers-those doughty warriors of the desk, warmers and winders of red tape but it would keep us in constant readiness fo- war.

I concluded that the lock was controlled by a secret button, or some contrivance which would respond quickly to the slightest touch.
 It would not be on the hinge side of the door, It would be placed so that a person might slip through the instant the the door moved. Thus I limited the field of my investigation. 1 felt along the top and down the right-h hand side of the door frame and along the ad- jacent wall for some bit of smooth sur face which would yield to pressure.

 At last 1 found a nail head project ing slightly from the end of the thick wooden threshold I pressed this loose nail carelessly with the edge of the sole of my shoe-and the door flew wide so suddenly that it almost knocked me down.

 Mystery Tunnel

The sudden glare of white light blinded me I shut my eyes, winked furiously, and just managed to catch glimpse of Hamilton Certeis before he closed the alley door, 1 had vision enough to observe that he gave the door only a careless push to swing it into place. Evidently he could trustft to lock itself. It must be a fine piece of mechanism, 1 reasoned.
 Certeis stood still for what seemed to me a very long time. Probably it was to accustom his own eyes to the darkness, nevertheless, I wondered if he could feel the presence of another human being close to him, or if he could hear the sound of my heart which was humping so loudly.
 That obstinate organ continued to pound like a drum long after Certeis had turned down the passage which led away from me and toward his se- eret ladder His retreating footsteps were firm and even, and I decided that he felt sure of his path through the black tunnnel.
 I leaned against the wall in utter weakness long after the echo of his steps had died. At last 1 moved up to the door and concentrated my mind upon it.

Phoenix Now

Phoenx was never before such an eve of de- 'elopment. It was never in the midst of so great developments Improvements are so numerous fol- lowing upon the heels of another that it is diff fcut if not impossible to follow them all. Road building street improvement, construction of business houses and private residences are going forward with such uniformity that attention is divided among them so that it all to be within the ordinary few years ago the construction of a single building or the improvement of single section of the street would have attracted greater attention.
 Phoenix got off to good start It was one of he first localities to awaken from dream of lower prices for building material and labor That might come sometime but Phoenix could not afford to wait for it, Opportunity was passing which must be seized then or never and Phoenix put out it's hand and grasped the forelock. It is now moving along with opportunity.
 Its judgment has been justified by the course the prices of building materials have since taken Instead of going down after the war, as many expected they have gone up and any prediction that they will be lower must be based something which no man can see. They will certainly not be lower while the de- mand for them continues and that demand will con- .inue as long as progressive and forward looking communities in rivalry and that will continue for a long time to The end of it cannot be predicted The man or the community that waits for it will be entirely out of the running
 In spite of high prices Phoenix and we suppose every other community never so financially well prepared to go on making improvements Either financially or psychoogicaIy we are stronger than we have ever been better able meet the high prices now than were to meet the lower prices before the war.

DROPPING A HINT

A temperance orator was in the habit of holding forth in a workman's hall, and was constantly being interrupted.
 The next time he lectured in that hall he e1- gagged prize fighter to sit in the gallery and keep order He contrasting the clean content of home life with the squaIor of drunkenness.
 What do we want when return home from our daily to?" he asked What do we desire to ease our burdens, to gladden. hearts, to bring smiles to our lips, and joy to eyes?"
 As the orator paused for breath the prize fighter shook his fist at the unruly members of the gallery and whispered in a loud undertone:

One Days Circulation Work

A circulation stunt pulled off by The Re pubican's boys the other day which those familiar with newspaper making must regard as remarkable. It is known that this paper though leading all south western papers in circulation, does indulge in cir culation revivas which usually produce only cent results. It offers premiums. It believes that if paper cannot be sold its merits it worth very much readers advertisers The principal business of The Republicans circulation department is keep track it's circulation; see that it's subscribers well served and to keep them satisfied and the subscription list There is greater joy in the RepubDcan office over one sub scriber kept the list than over two added to the list You all know how that is; you would rather hold to old friend than to take on a dozen new We to say that a dozen new subscribers would not assuage grief at the loss of old one.
 The circulation department. though the other day decided make of it's organization to test it's efficiency circulation getter well circu- lation keeper. The carriers were interviewed and told that there would be day drive; that drive stakes had been set at 100 brand new subscribers; that any falling short of that number would be re- garded failure
 The department that it was setting the boys hard task. This is supposed not to be a good time of the year for circulation building, when many people leaving town. It aware that the town and vicinity already pretty wel-cov- cred by The Republicans subscription list There would have to be some intimate scratching done if there were to be 100 new subscribers added to the list in single day, and it had to be done in day last Tuesday. Wednesdays work would noe count
 The boys were offered some slight inducement a small commission and three small prizes In the event that 100 were secured, there was to be outing at Riverside But the strongest appeal was made to the boys interest in the work and about thirty of them undertook it. The result was that 127 new names added at the regular subscription rate a percentage record that perhaps never before attained
 That of course, was not all the new subscribers There is pretty steady stream of subscriptions coming in over the counter through the regular channels in spite of the hot and the outward summer movement of residents. But the big thing was the experimental drive.

well known by all the voters that the proposal to build 2721, miles of road.
 But the figures in the story went out; they have been copied in every technical journal in the United States devoted remotely to the subject of good roads, even official road journals have accepted them. Even 1721a miles of good roads is a consid- erabe stretch but should have credit for the other 100 miles S'e are going build and ask all readers to assist in rectifying this mistake
 We do not suppose there is another county in the United States with such ambitious road building program and we want the whole world to know it.
