A Sian of Growth

Many things point to the growth of Phoenix and the change of it's character from village a city. Of course, know this change long cured and that it was becoming and marked. Many evidences of the change had been pointed out and many had been assigned the transformation.
 Among the signs of change, believe, that has never been set in print-Phoenix has ceased be a "one-nigTit stand" Shows remain theaterswe speaking of road-not stock shows from three nights week-almost long they usually than they fill houses in of from 50.000 to 100000. Moving pictures formerly exhibited here only days. they are a week to good houses.
 There three things that lift towns out of the one-nght stand class. One of them population, per capita circula tion. and another a spirit appreciation of the theater something that acquired by whole community. Phoenix the people, has the money and has the appreciatve spirit.
 So, bring the shows. but they good A transforming party will last only it would survive New Yor<-the greatest show would only night

According Harry B. Hunt, a staff correspondent of the Newspaper Enterprise Association who has iatey completed a three weeks of eastern. midwestern states. there is prospect of shortened production food this year. The Hunt has thus summarized by him: Farm in farming when have to pay $50 s6o month sor regular help s4 s5 day harvest hands plus keep A. II. Snyder. editor of Successful Farming" confirms the impression made upon Mir. Hunt n statement that he has the viewpoint of very large percentage Of the s0oooo farmers who subscribe that publication
 the idea of the farmers that their receipts will be decreased under production. On the trary they expect to receive much for what they will raise this year they the large volume produced last year and the year before. They ap- pear to have taken a from the book of other business and learned under pro- auction less. the profits will be greater

SLIGHT CHANGE FOR
 STAY IF EXECUTION

With only a few days left before the date for the execution of Simplicio Torres, now in the state penitentiary convicted Of the murder a year ago of Town Marshal Vic E. Melik of Will Hams. the attorney generals office is extremely doubtful if any judge of the supreme court will grant q certificate Of probable cause for appeal, which would act as stay of the execution set for Friday, April 16.
 Isaac Earth and Mercer Aamperly, attorneys for Torres, appeared in the Flagstaff superior court a few days ago and presented an argument to Judge J. k. Jones to grant a certificate Of probable cause. and the court refused to grant the certificate
 Any such appeal will be resisted, t was said by the attorney general, on the grounds that it is strictly contrary to the application of the law as defined in section of the initiative measure to appeal from order directing and gix- ing the time for the execution of a present judgment as herein provided. from which there is no appeal.
 Torres cannot be executed after the filing Of the appeal, while judgment is pending and has been acted upon by the supreme court.

 The of living has played its part in this condition by causing persons open their houses to roomers additional of revenue.
 This isn't healthy normal condition o affairs It produces overcrowding, discontent reduced standards of living. Two families in one house can't be as independent and happy two families in two houses.
 People aren't cheerful when home condi- tons are unsa tfsfactory. Workers contented even under favorable conditions of employment when they can't find the kind of homes they desire.
 It is condition which calls for immediate gov ernment consderation- although it is one of the many things which calling, are u1heard by congress. The matter of homes a highly import ant part of the question of public welfare pub lie welfare should be the supreme law.
