TO. BUY COAL LANDS.

Vancouver, B. c., Oct. 25.-Negoti-
atoms are pending between a syndi-
cate representing the British ad-
miralty and the owners of the Ground
Hog coal properties, in the Ground
Hog district, $50 miles north of
Hazelton. B. c., for the purchase of
nearly 1000 square miles of coal
lands, forming, what is claimed to be
the largest smokeless steam coal de-
post in the world.
The syndicate opened negotiations
in 1912 with the British government
through the Duke of Argyle. This
deal was pending until 1914 when
Lord Rhondda came to Canada and
after looking over the property, de-
cided to take it providing his engi-
neers were satisfied. After an exami-
nation by the engineers plans for a
railway were laid and a provisional
charter secured. Lord Rhondda was
then called to the post Of food con-
troller tor Great Britain and before
he could resume negotiations he died.
The matter then lay in suspense until
Lord Jellicoe visited Canada last
year, when it was again opened and
has been under investigation ever
since.

PHOENIX RAPIDLY .|S BECOMING CITY .OF HOME OWNERS
Never Before Have So Many People In This City Quit
 Paying Rent By Purchas-
 ing Homes; Give Reasons

Home owning is becoming the rule in Phoenix.
 Just how many people have bought or are buying homes is impossible to say, but real estate men yesterday agreed that more people than ever are buying homes this year. The fact that there are more people in Phoenix than ever before, of course, is largely re- sponsible for the larger number of homes being bought here, but at that, buying of homes has increased more than in proportion to the increase in population.
 The large number of people who are buying homes here is due in great part to the general prosperity of the city and valley, real estate men said yes terday. High rents are also Q factor of importance, however, in the view of many just as other cities have found that the higher rents go, the more people buy their homes. Be your own landlord is a slogan that appeals to many
 Just how many homes have been ! bought by people who wish to live in them, dn the last year or the last few years, cannot be stated, as no records are available. Without statistics. no one can prove that in proportion to population more people own their homes today then two or three or five years ago, but that is the opinion of many men familiar with local con- ditions.
 Give Many Reasons Neither are figures available to show what proportion of home buyers buy because rents have become so high 1 but the men who are in constant touch with the buyers of houses declare large part of the purchasers want to 1 buy homes because they will not pay i high rents.
 ] People see rents going higher and higher. and they decide they might as well be putting their rent money into a home instead of paying it to a land i lord, realty salesman declared | When you sit down and figure up that l you are paying from $500 to $500 d why you don't start buying a house with it and be sure of a home" ! One realtor yesterday summerized 1 the reason why Phoenicians are buying homes as follows:
 l Because they want to have a place of their own.
 Because they want to stop paying | high rent
 Because they consider a home of their 1 own the safest way they can invest their money.
 | Because they have found how scarce i accommodations are here during most 1 Of the year. and know they can be sure of a place to live if they buy a 1 home of their own Because they know owning a home ] here leaves them as free as ever. be- cause houses are easy to rent or sell l If the owner leaves the city.
 They Are Encouraged
 But regardless of why people are | buying homes. it is a mighty good thing ! for all concerned that they are, realty men agree. for a city of home owners is the best kind of a city. Home own

convention, not only to select the presidential candidate. but to construct the platform and policies that will re- store real Americanism to our coun- try-a government of the people, for the people by the people. The sight of the countless American flags hung throughout the great Coliseum seemed to me q beautiful symbol of the com mon cause that had brought us to- gether there
 "One of the Chicago newspapers paid a striking tribute to the women who participated in the convention in an article entitled The Women-God Bless 'Emi'
 AS you know. nominations for president were made by men. each nomina ton being seconded by man and a woman. Although this was a new experience, the women were more than equal to it. The Chicago Tribune, in commenting on this, said:
 ''The women, God bless em, made the best speeches that were made. They knew what they wanted to say; they said it and sat down. They were earnest. self possessed and calm and could be heard throughout the Coli scum. These women did more that day for the cause of suffrage than the militant suffragettes had been able to do in many, many years. They proved themselves qualified in every way to take an equal share with men in po- litical affairs.
 Tt was my general impression that the women of the West have gone fur ther iR political life and come nearer to being mans political equal than the women of the East and it is because the women of the West have been given a square deal by the men, be- cause of that something we call the western spirit which is more than mere phrase. Therefore, l feel that the women of the West owe it to the men to take an active, intelligent part in political affairs. And because the Republican party has made possible this cooperation in the political wei fare of the nation I feel that we owe q great loyalty to that party"
 Harding Another Mckinley
 In speaking of the nomination of Senator Harding. Mrs. Guild said:
 T am greatly pleased with the out come of the convention. Senator Hard ing is neither ultra progressive nor
Arizona republican., 1920-07-08

ultra conservative. but rather I would say, of the big hearted. broad minded, constructive type, and is ideally fitted by natural ability and experience to be the chief executive of our country.
 T feel satisfied because I think that in the re-convention campaign and during the convention the people of America have shown General Wood their love and admiration for him and their appreciation of his great service to the country. Although the generals supporters were naturally disappointed because he was not nomi- mated, they welcome Senator Harding as another Mckinley, just the type Of man the country so sorely needs today to insure normal. efficient business administration and a restoration of the constitutional rights of congress and the people.
 T was more than gratified to see the work that the Arizona delegation. though small, performed in the con- vention," said Mrs. Guild. and partic- uIarIy the admiration and appreciation that other states have for our Governor Campbell. Arizona is no longer a small pink spot on the United States map to the people of other states, and a great share of credit for this is due to the activities of the Arizona governor.
 Praise for Governor Campbell
 "At a dinner given by the Pennsyl- vania delegation at Chicago, when in troduced to Governor Sproule of that state, he said: I know your Governor Campbell. You people of the West should be very proud of Governor Campbell
 "Governor Harding of Iowa, on heing introduced said immediately: And you are from Arizona? I know your Governor Campbell. He is a very fine man..
 Members of the resolutions commit tee before whom Governor Campbell spoke on behalf of the reclamation plank, were enthusiastic in their ad- miration of our Arizona executive. as were all with whom he came in touch. and we from Arizona were very proud to claim him as our own"
 At the close of the convention Mrs. Guild went to Des Moines to attend the biennial of the General Federation of Women's Clubs. Here a signal hon. or was conferred upon her, as she was elected auditor of the general fedora ton, the first office in the general fed eration to be held by an Arizona woman.

ing is deserving of much encourage ment. and is a good thing for the home owner. the neighborhood and the com munity at large as was stressed at the recent national realty convention 3t Kansas City, and also by members of the Chicago Association of Commerce party who visited this city not long ago. The advantages of home owning were summed up by Webb Griffin. ot F. J. Bennitt and company, in the following:
 When man owns a home he takes pride in it and works hard to keep il looking it's best and in perfect condi- tion When he owns his home he's go- ing to try to keep the neighborho0H as good as his home. As home owner, hell feel he's something in civic life and work for the improvement Of the city his home is in"
 The average renter" Mr. Griffen pointed out, isn't going to take an interest in keeping the landlords house up It isn't his house and he isn't going to keep it in perfect repair and looking new. That's up to the land lord. But when a man lives in his own house he'll be making little i'm provements about the place all the tIme making 1t look better, working on the yard. planning future Improvements.
 Men who wouldn't think of working on places they had reuted-and you can't blame them for tito make then i look better or suit them better, spend
 all their time improving their owI homes when they buy them It's human nature. And when they take pride il l their homes they take pride in theil neighborhoods, their schools, their
