Now Mary, whose pleasant smile beams daily in the circulation de- partment down stairs, brought up copy of the valued Gazette. And while she was laying it on our desk her roaming eye fell on the Jingle we had just written about the girl named Teresa.
 "oh." she exclaimed. "did you do that?''
 "No." we said. T never knew a girl named Teresa.''
 Really, didn't you? I did, A note of sadness crept into her voice as she added, but she died.''
 And don't you know. one never can tell what memories. what associations one is apt to bring to the mind of the reader by the most innocent, harm less writing. It hadn't been our in tention to make Mary unhappy. And while we were framing a suitable ex- planation. she sat on the table and read more of our copy. Say. did you do that-about the tequilla?

 Dear Sir:
 I note your comment on my letter of the 24th inst. and thank you for your careful and exhaustive consider ation of the same. If 1 may presume d little further on your generosity Tn the matter of space, 1 should like to offer a correction and explanations By typographical error was made to say, No one can give any assur- ance as to whom the second bond issue can be sold" What l think wrote was. No one can give any as- surance as to when the second bond issue can be sold.'' and it was on this premise-the possibility that the sale of the second bond issue and conse- quently the completion of the paving program, would be delayed indefi- nitely by financial conditions or pos sible legal obstacles. that l based my objections to the manner in which the paving is being done.
 The highway commission itself seems to have answered my complaint in a measure by it's announcement in Sundays Republican that the pave ment will at once be constructed from Cashion to Buckeye. 1 had been told short time ago by d county official in position to know. that no paving would be laiu west or 1aSHioh out Of the first bond issue. Knowing the importance and also the condition of the road from Cashion to Buckeye. it seemed almost criminal to me to leave it unpaved and turn back to- ward Phoenix with a second or third line of paving
 If. now, the commission could squeeze out of the first bond issue pavement which would give the Washington district an outlet to Gen. ter street or Grand avenue, and a similar one tapping the country northeast of Phoenix, and perhaps g | pavement for Grand avenue from Pe- l oria to Glendale. I would be willing to let the Fowler frame -e-r- -setup' | rest in peace, and 1t was in the hope l of starting discussion which nigh | result in such a modification of the | commissions plans that l was moved to break into print.
 am inclined to take issue with vol on your assertion that "A stretch Co paving) here and another there wouit have brought little immediate bene 1 fit to any locality" My belief is tha
 when pavement gives the people c a locality access to a town or marke | it becomes of great and immediat
 benefit as soon as laid. and that if
 radius of usefulness is increase
 rather than diminished by its lack 0 proximity to other paved roads.
 Yours truly.

 Although The Republican printed at least five cartoons. more or less dis paraging to the 18th amendment and to law enforcement, in the first five days of June, and although its pages have not been altogether uncontam- mated by the same kind of alleged humor and-as The Republican re- gently termed it-".faithful portrayal of human nature yet the improve ment has been so noticeable that the members of the Epworth League have commented upon it, and it's officers take this opportunity to express their appreciation of the fact.------.

Local Produce Growing


 We received a letter from reader advocat- ing open market where farmers and truck garden may bring their produce and sell directly to the consumers We think the suggestion is good one. Such . market would be well patronized if 1t could be supplied with the things the public wants.
 So 50 far as the main thing advocated by the writer Is concerned. in accord. It is charged by the writer that produce dealers profteer- ing and mention is made the circumstance that a day when farmer had to sell tomatoes at cents pound dealers charging 171z cents pound for them.
 That surely looks like profiteerng and maybe there some profiteering but will have to look further for proof We cannot accept cents a pound the wholesale market value of tomatoes that day or any day. No one can profitably raise tomatoes at 3 cents pound.
 As a matter of fact. the wholesale market value produce Phoenix is fixed here but in Cali fornia and it has always been fixed. We do not know what tomatoes in California worth the day in question. but certainly the price paid. for fugitive lot of homegrown tomatoes could not be the basis for selling price of large shipment of brought by express from California. Those tomatoes had been picked by hired hands; they had been crated at and then there were the high express charges.
 There is always loss be counted in perishable products That must be where by the difference between the and the
  exorbitant prices of dealers do not know that their prices not exorbitant only explain ing phase of produce situation many take into account.
 It is fact that dealers cannot depend upon local produce. The volume of it is negligible They could get along just well better without it con sidering the irregularity which them. They must order from California regard They order much they think they will need for certain day. Thus they buy unexpected quan- titles the same day, they buying | than they had intended buy and perhaps than they need

statements were expected today. and
the union chiefs were expected also to

of which ended the strike controversy.
Railroad brotherhood chiefs said
their resolution adopted last night
calling off the strike emphasized two
points as evidence of a victory for the

These points were, first, that action

wage cuts that the railroads may ask
will receive consideration after pend
ing questions before the board are
cleared, thereby deferring immediate
actions on further reductions, and pos
sibly postponing the question of a new
wage revision for nearly a year
The second point was that action
of the rules which the mems organ
ization wish to maintain will likewise
take its place on the regular calendar
of the board so that it will not be
likely to become an immediate issue.
