BOOSTING TELEPHONE RATES

Nc believe thlS the wrong tune for the Mountain States Telephone Telegraph Company to try to raise the telephone i'll Arizona. In view of the decline of practically every other commodity. well wages the telephone company has before the Arizona corpora ton commission proposal to raise the toll rates ranging from 10 to 20 per cent, contingent upon the distance.
 The telephone company claims losses ranging from $15.000 to $20000 last year business in Arizona and claims that the slight raise ill tolls will just about offset their loss Whether their claim justified will of
 have be decided by the commission. Hearings be- ing conducted Ill different parts of the state relative to the proposed which the Arizona manager of the company has been in attendance and introduced docue- tary testimony At few places the people have appear ed before the commission it is said. and entered protests but general rule. This is caused. believe. by the fact that the individual does consider his test- mOy of sufficient moment to be entered and the people have elected the corporation commission look for their interests take 1t that the lack of appearance be- fore the commission does that the people satisfied. and the increase. but merely leaving the matter the judgment of the corporation comns sion.
 If the commission deems 1t just that the raise should be granted will be well and good but the other hand should the commission representing the peoples inter- believe that in view of the lowering of all materials and wages the raise should be justified the telephone company should be satisfied The people not asking that rates be lowered and believe the telephone pany entitled fair percentage of profit. but until such time raise would be warranted by conditions the time will be ripe for raise i'll rates Already freight and express rates, boosted the limit, proving boomerang to transportation companies and bound to result ill loss of revenue.
 We hope the telephone and telegraph companies have the foresight not to get in the same category.

NEW RULING TO FREE
 MEXICO OF sLAckERs

DOUGLAS. May 0-Hundreds Of slackers and fugitives from justice will be returned to this country as 2 result of decision of the secretary of the interior in Mexico to enforce the passport laws to the letter. Ives C.. Leleyier announced yesterday morn ing. Taking effect immediately al; foreigners entering Mexico must have d passport issued by their respective government or they will be turned back at the border Likewise. all for eigners now residing in Mexico who cannot show that they entered the country on d passport and paid the government the head tax will be re turned to the port through which thes entered This will result in all slack CTS. most of whom went to Mexico without obtaining passports. being sent back to this country where the United States authorities can seize them
 Although the circular did not cx plain the reason for the sudden detar- imitation to enforce the passport laws to the letter. it was presumed at the Mexican consul's office that the action was the result of the recent disturb ances caused by radicals in Mexico For d number of years raiCals from America and other countries have Hooked 10 Mexico During the past few months the seeds of discontent which they have sown since their res idence in the southern republic have shown signs of sprouting, and the Mexican government is making every effort to deport the breeders of dis content from the country
 According to the new ruling. every foreigner in Mexico will be question ed concerning his right to remain there and if il is found that he has entered illegally will be immediately deported
 Consul Lelevier said yesterday that the new ruling would have little effect on the local situation The chamber of commerce tourist and resident card will be recognized by the consul as before Lelevier said that the only ef- feet it would have would be a closer scrutiny of the passports or identity cards by the immigration guards Many persons known to the Mexican officials who have been passing be- cause of this acquaintance will be compelled to get vised passports. Le- levier said.

 Probably no proverb has been more misquOted than this one, from has diverse meanings been extracted It has often been used argument against sickness against depression and various other things Maybe they all right-maybe they are all wrong.
 We believe, however, that anything which strength the will and increases the determination of to win, whether it be proverb medal an encouraging word what not, is worth while It is possible for man with determination to fabut is scarcely possible for without win Many times is the little extra de- termination that carries to victory The athlete almost spent who his last of strength and just touches tape the end of the before he falls has be- cause of determination and will to win.

ADVERTISEMENTS ENTIRE TIME

What is the meaning of this sudden agitation that would compel Congressen and Senators to give their tire time to the business for which they have been chos ens Will such demand find any considerable support anon gthe whom it will affect! Will Congressmen and Senators vote to cut off the greater part of their comes?
 It is we'll known that many Senators and Congress men earn much from other than their salary from the government. With their title Is much in the nature of advertisement that increases their law practice other business A law that would forbid them receiving any compensation outside their of fical salary would be sad blow to many of them
 Probably nothing will come of it, but when the mat ter is viewed calmly, why should receive salary and then attend half the sessions of congress saying nothing of failure to give any service outside! There have been cases where member did not half dozen roll calls during session. yet his salary paid regularly. There is other work in which can engage without giving his time and attention to it. Why should political office be an exception!

something must be the matter.
What happened, Billie?" he

"Oh, II had to-er-now-sorte
