WORLD WOULD &c CLEANER
Excellent Thing u the Profession Of
the "spy" Can % Altogether
Eliminated.

We pray God that the next big
thing the world will dO~ will be to
eliminate forever from the face of the
earth that unspeakable creature
known as the spy"
In war It has sometimes become
necessary for good man to be spy,
but It was the direst necessity and
nothing else that could induce him.
Nathan Hale was spy, but he was
such only to save the liberty Of his
country. His last words when he
died were that he regretted that he
had only one life to give in that holy
cause.
But, there are spies who are such by
profession as we'll as by nature. And
that kind Of man Is creature so low
in the scale Of humanity that pole.
cat is respectable compared to him.
The spy is person who will break
bread with you, eat your salt, accept
the kindly and hospitable shelter Of
your roof, worm himself into your af.
fections, and then betray you. He
will bite the hand that feeds him as
uuS WOutu w. ne Will SeIlu W ucdul
those who have taken him to the
household Of their hearts.
A sublime effort is being made in
the worlds affairs now to let the light
in on all the dark corners. The win
dows are to be flung open and the sun
light let in at the door. And, when
this is done. the spy will disappear.
He cannot endure in the light of day.
His world is the world Of the shadows.
| He must have the cover Of darkness
or he cannot work.
OF all crawling vermin that infest
the earth the spy is the most detesta-
BILE. He is the most poisonous Of rep
tiles. The rattlesnake and sidewinder
are scholars and gentlemen compared
to him.
Civilization will have taken almost
its longest stride forward when the spy
is removed from the scene of earth
which he testers by his c0rruptins

THREE CENTS |S. TO BE R. R. RATE IN THIS STATE
L. $. Railroad Commission
 Lowers Excessive Fares, Raises Rates Under Three Cents Mile Over Country

People are to ride on Arizona rail- roads for three cents mile.
 After paying from four to six cents a mile for transportation fin this state for years, passengers are to be privi- legged to ride for the same fare paid in other states.
 This welcome information came last night in an announcement by officers of the United States railroad admin istration at San Francisco which said that all passenger rates in excess or three cents per mile are to be de- creased to the three cent limit on ana after April 1 of this year.
 Flat increases to three cents a mile are also announced on roads on which lower rates were in effect. It also was announced that all special and excur- sion rates are to be discontinued
 Long Fight Ends Corporation Commissioner F. A. Jones when informed last night or tne order said: "It cuts to three cents a mile rates in this state which ran to l from four to six cents. We have been | ii-sNAAio o hA6hb oAiSt thN
 criminatory to Arizona for many months. and 8 memorial prepared by the commission on this subject ana passed by the legislature arrived Tn Washington before the order was is- sued. It will materially reduce trav- cling expenses to Los Angeles, Denver, Fl Paso and probably to Kansas City.
 Mir. Jones enumerated the different passenger fares which prevailed in the state against which the commission has been waging a steady battle. Sald he: out of Globe the rate is now 1lve cents mile. On the Grand Canyon line it is six cents. East of Tucson the general rate is four cents a mile and west of Tucson. Az cents.
 An idea or the saving which this will effect for Arizonans who trave may be judged by the fact that the present fare to Los Angeles is s17.s9 and under the new schedule this vii be reduced to $13.50. This is certainly the best news Arizona has had for long while"
 Hardly Believes it
 W. S. Goldworthy of the Santa Fe was inclined to believe that there wa. some error in the dispatch, and that correction will be made later. He sait that at this time when the roads arr running behind it hardly seemed req sonable that such a change would b' made. Only in the cases of long roa' to meet the rates of short lines ar the rates now below three cents mil so that the increase would not offse the reduction of rates of more thai three cents.
 MT. Goldsworthy recalled the frs announcement of the increase of rate ito three cents and the accompanyin

WARM WELCOME TOAR|zONAbOYS
 WILL BE GIVEN
With Home Coming Of Sold iers Of The 15Sth Infantry
 Near, Plans For Housing Reception Arc To Be Made

With the announcement that the 15Sth infantry. the all-Arizona regi- ment of the 10th division, would be demobilzed at Camp Kearny, Cal. by April 10. afficial Arizona and official Phoenix have begun preparations to make the boys welcome home a rous- ing ore. State. county. city and the public at large are determined to show Arizonas fighting men that they will he as well received home as they were sent away.
 Governor Thomas F. Campbell has announced what he will do toward the reception. City and county officials are also taking up the matter, and plans for the reception may be broach- ed this morning at the meeting of the city council. Civic organiza tions are also preparing to join in to make the 15Sth's reception the greatest soldiers ever had.
 Soldiers Club Prepares
 The Great War Veterans Associa ton. through it's commander in chief, Claude Decatur Jones, is also getting ready for the reception. The soldiers of the organization have not as yet completed their plans. but have gone so far as to say it will be some en- tertainment and welcome they give their comrades of the l5Sth when they arrive in Phoenix.
 Almost every person and every or eaniza,ion 10 whom the thought of a mammoth reception for the boys has occurred is getting ready 10 back it for all he. she or it is worth.
 Governor Campbell is backing. with all the executive power, the move ment 10 give 10 the Arizona boys of | the famous 15Sth a rousing and fitting welcome when they return. Governor Approves T am making every effort" said the governor last night. ito find out exactly when the boys are to arrive 1 at Camp Kearny, so that I can per sonally he there to welcome them home. It was my privilege to send them away and wish them God speed and I desire the greater privilege oi telling them welcome home
 Nothing that the people of Phoeni1 T and Arizona can do in the way of giv- ing the boys a rousing welcome vii be near enough-we cannot do enough for the boys from this state who have so nobly represented the common wealth in the great war.
 ''I sincerely hope that the city county, and state officials, the civi, bodies of the city and state. the Grea War Veterans association, Red Cross and everybody else, will all get to- gether and prepare a welcome for tn boys that will be remembered all thei lives as the bright spot in their mili tary experiences,-their welcom home"
 Meanwhile there has been no defin ite announcement of the date the 15StI may be expected in Arizona, dispatche merely saying it and the rest of tn 10th division would be demobiIized b April 70. But when the boys dt come they will find Arizona waitin for them with open arms.
