PHOENIX, Sept. 3.--When the Col orado river carved it's tortuous path down through the red sandstones of the north it cut off from the north west portion of Arizona virgin em- pire 180 miles in length and averag- ing 60 miles in width. This territory embracing as it does nearly 11,0OO square miles is larger than theNtwo states of New Jersey and Delaware or of Maryland and Rhode Island. It is nearly as large as Massachusetts and Connecticut combined; it is larger than either Vermont or New Hamp- shire and contains nearly as many square miles as Belgium.
 How to bring about the opening up of the Arizona strip, as it is called and make it an integral part of the state, has been one of the ambitions of Gov. Thomas F.. Campbell, since he first took office. For be it known that this great territory, except for wide ly separated settlements, is practical ly uninhabited. Here and there some hardy soul has staked out home stead but for the most part the coun- try is a mere wilderness of pictur- esuue mountains and fertile plains, but with very little done toward de- veloping the resources of either.
 True, the Arizona strip has for many years been used as a range for sheep and cowmen, but this is not enough for those anxious to see the upbuilding of the state through the es- tablishment of homes based on agri- cultural development.
 Anxious to see for himself some thing of the natural resources and latent richness of this country, Gov ernor Campbell recently made a trip of investigation by automobile, and re. turned to his office more determined than>ever that something must and should be done to develop this wonder land of natural resources if it lay within his powers to aid.
 As the first step in this direction the governor has written to the sec retary of the interior asking for an immediate survey of such lands as are suitable for homesteading with the further request that they be des- ignated for taking up under the en- larged homestead act which allows the settler to hold GAO acres.
 But first of all, and this is fully realized by the governor, the strip needs good roads, and as the first step he is vitally interested in the plans of the state highway department for building the highway north from King man to the Utah line, thus forming a southern extension of the famous Ar rowhead trail. This highway starts at the Glacier National park, trav- erses the Yellowstone and then pro ceeds southward through Salt Lake City to the southern borders of the Bee Hive state.
 The proposed extension of the Ar rowhead trail into Arizona will not only provide an avenue of intercourse with the neighboring state but will fofm a logical gateway to the strip

A clerk in the employ of Chicago business man, while fair worker, is yet an individual of pronounced eccen- tricity.
 One day wire basket fell on the top of the clerks desk and scratched his cheek. Not having any court plaster at hand, he slapped on three 2-cent postage stamps and continued his work.
 A few minutes later he had occasion to take some papers to his employers private office. When he entered the Told man" observing the postage stamps on the clerks cheek fixed him with an astonished stare.
 Cook here, Tom" he exclaimed. "You are carrying too much postage for second-class matter"

KANSAS CITY WEEKLY . LIVE STOCK LETTER 1
Kansas City Stock Yafds,
 August 30, 1920.
+++++*+++++++*++ | <

Sn"StsN wv A'-"' Cattle receipts today were about the same as a week ago, and the ad- vance that occurred late last week put grass steers in about the same posi- tion as a week ago, and fed steers slightly higher. Today's market was steady at that level. Hog prices came in for quarter advance, top $15.6O, pigs sold up to $15.25. Western lambs sold up to $13.90, or 15 cents above the extreme top paid last week.
 Today's Receipts.
 Receipts today were 24,000 cattle, 5000 hogs and 12,000 sheep, compared with 24 ,O0O cattle, 5000 hogs and 5000 sheen a week ago, and 2S,500 cattle, 10,30O hogs and 25,600 sheep year ago.
 Beef Cattle.
 Good to choice cattle held fully steady today at the advance reported late last week, and the medium to common kinds were weak. Chicago quoted 35 to 50 cent decline, on all classes, except grain fed sters. Here fed cattle were lacking and killers are using best grassers and wintered steers to meet the demand for best beef. Some short fed steers sold up to $15.50, and wintered steers up to s14.75. The best heavy grassers brought s13.75 and bulk of grass fat steers S9.OO to $1225. Cows and heif- CTS were stronger in spots, though most sales were no more than steady Veal calves were fully steady.
 Stockers and Feeders.
 Demand for stockers and feeders was fairly active at steady to strong prices. The better grades showed most of the strength. Receipts were liberal. Last week more than 19,OOO cattle went back to country points, and indications are that shipments this week will be larger than last week.
 Hogs.
 Hog prices today came in for 25 cent advance and the market is 50 to 70 cents above the low point last Wed nesday. The top today was S15.6O, and bulk of sales $14.90 to $15.5O. Pigs were 15 cents higher, top $15.25. Stock feeding grades were in active demand.
 Sheep and Lambs. Lambs in some cases today were 15 cents higher, and sheep generally steady. Trade ruled active. Fat western lambs sold up ti $13.90, or 10 cents above last weeks top, and the highest price paid in August. Ewes sold up to $700 and wethers, $8.25. Feeding lambs are quoted at $9.OO to r$1250.
 Horses and Mules.
 Demand for horses and mules is in creasing and likewise the supply. Prices are holding steady. Buyers want fat grades. Thin out of condi- tion grades should be held off the mar ket.

CAN YOU TALK POLYNESE,
 LANGUAGE OF POLITICS?

Sam Blythe, than whom as polit- ical writer there is no whomer, has compiled what he terms a Political Glossary"
 Having written millions upon mil lions of words touching upon political situations of the past 'steen years, MT. Blythe is generally considered the dean of writers having to do with na- tional politics.
 Blythe's Impressions.
 The other day he attacked his trusty typewriter and when he was through the following delightful humor was imprinted on the copy paper that he yanked from the roller:
 "Plutocrat - Vice presidential tim ber
 "Conservative-One who has his.
 "Radical-One who hasn't.
 "Uninstructed Delegate-See un- purchased.
 "Unpurchased - See uninstructed delegate.
 "Bourbon-Local designation for democrat; so called because he hasn't any.
 "Wet-An acknowledged thirst.
 "Dry-A camoufaged thirst.
 "White House-A telephone booth in Washington, D. c.
 ''Ireland-The political porcupine.
 Defines Platform.
 "Platform-An attempt to say what is meant without meaning what is said.
 Light wines-Something the vets talk about, but never drink.
 "Convention-Formerly 1042 hard boiled eggs; now 1042 hard-boiled eggf minus the lady delegates, who arg ys ysoft-boiled. ,r, "Two-thirds majority-The wreck CT of votes.
 "Alternate-A man with badge. "Delegate-A man with two badges.
 Keynote speech = An oratorical lightning-rod. Presidential possibility-Any man who can hire press agent.
 "Non-eligible candidate-Any per son, except himself, mentioned to w. J. Bryan as possibility

WAS THE WISE GINK.

The householder smothered his wrath and descended to the basement. "Are you the Denver plumber?" he asked of the grimy looking individual who was tinkering with the pipes. "Yes, guv-nor," replied the man. "Been long in the trade?'' "'Bout a year, guv-nor." "Ever make mis- takes" "Bless you, no, guv-nor." "Oh, then I suppose it's all right. l imagined you had connected up the wrong pipes, for the chandelier in the drawing room is spraying like foun- tain, and the bathroom taps on fire"
The Coconino sun., 1920-09-03
HE OBSERVED THE APPLAUSE

The notice of the meeting was so worded that a generous response was assured. At the appointed hour the hall was packed. The chairman called the meeting to order and introduced the speaker of the evening. He was a modestly dressed, unimpressive little man, but he was an earnest talker.
 "Ladies and gentlemen" he said. "this meeting was called for the pur- pose of starting a campaign to raise funds for the impoverished contribu- tors to innumerable other campaigns" "
 The rest of the speech was not heard because of the tremendous applause.

PREACHER VS. DOCTOR

Willie had swallowed a penny, and his mother was in a state of alarm.
 "Helen," she called to her sister in the next room, "send for a doctor; Willie has swallowed a penny!"
 The terrified and frightened boy looked up imploringly.
 "No, mamma" he interposed, "send for the minister"
 "The minister?" asked his mother, incredulously. "Why the minister ?"
 Because papa says he can get mon- ey out of anybody"

THE GOOD DONE BY
 THE COUNTRY PAPER
An exchange says:

An exchange says:
 "While the country paper is small, it is doing just as much, in its way, for the progress and development of the section it serves as any of the larger papers, and in some cases a great deal more, because, as rule, the bigger the paper the more its opin- ions are dominated from the counting room, something never thought of by the country weekly, which boosts it's locality all the time without thought of receiving pay for such service.
 "The people of country commun- ity swear by and not at their local pa- per. It carries far greater weight, politically and otherwise, with them than does the paper of metropolitan pretentions. The country weekly is closer to the hearts of it's readers than is the case with the larger newspa- pers."

 "Oh, that ?" said the orderly care lessly. "That don't mean nothing much. It just means, Many die, you shall also"

An Atlanta husband, having of tended, came home the evening of the quarrel with a parcel under his arm.

 She came forward with a shrug.
 "Humph. What is it?" she said "A box of stogies ?"

without the ability or the courage to
take3a job and keep it. Most large
cities have such homes founded by
charity and devoted to the work Of
helping those who are down. The
organization has now sold the build
ing for factory purposes. One of
the OFFICIALS of the league said:
