 To the Editor of The Republican:
 The residents of Phoenix note the frequent capture by our valiant po- lice and sheriff (names are always published In the newspapers) of the fierce and terrible moonshiners oper- ating teakettle and milk can stills on their kitchen stoves in and about this city. We appreciate the fact that these officers have no time to devote to the burglars and thieves who daily break and enter our dwellings, seem ingly with perfect immunity from capture or recovery of goods stolen. But may we not be allowed to sug- gest to our city and county officers that since the United States is main. taining in our city prohibition en- forcement officer with a staff of as- : sistants, together with the United States marshal and his assistants, whose duty it is to enforce the pro- hibition law, that our local peace of ficers might be allowed to devote a portion of their time to the protection of the lives and property of our people.
 In one residence district in this city there have been six burglaries within three blocks in the last few weeks Not a thief has been apprehended nor a stolen article found. Are we not paying a greatly increased force oi police and sheriff's deputies to de- vote themselves to the capture oi moonshiners and bootleggers. whc harm no one but the foolish consum- CTS of their illicit product, while thieves and burglars rob and break open our houses with impunity?

init that am old fashioned. cautious and conservative. I trust, neverthe- less. that there are still a few old fashioned folks in Phoenix who prefer Anglo Saxon ideas to those new fangled Russian ones of yours, folks to whose ears the sound of such phrases as Magma Charta" or ''The Constitution of the United States sound more homelike somehow than that of the application of police power" folks who still stick to the old notion that the safest judges ot mans criminality, even in speech. is
 not police captain but "a jury of his peers"
 It may be even that some of then

Price: Tutl Tut!

All of us, at one time or another fall to wondering whence comes the creature Man and whither is he go- ing It is this wonder, perhaps, which is the raisop d'etre of religion
 And along this line of thought Vernon Kellogg, well known biolo- gist, talks in this months Atlantic Monthly on life. It's yarn to the taste of any man or woman.
 "As to human origin" Mir. Kellogg says. "the biologist finds no tangible evidence to support any other eXpla- nation than the now familiar and widely accepted one of evolution from pre- existing lower animal kinds. For this explanation he does find what is to him practically convincing evidence It is of no very great in terest-certainly of no very great im- portance-to most of 1t, if we once accept the evolutionary explanation of origin, whether man is traced back to this or that particular kind of an- thropoid ape or other less anthropoid ancestor.
 However, when we watch chim- panzee for some time, we come to have a hope that he is not the par ticular anthropoid that the anthro- pologist would ask us to recognize with any filial admiration or affec- tion. The feeling is even more marked when the orangoutan or the gorilla is the object of our curiosity. It Is true, though. that if we watch the chimpanzee long enough. a rather unsettled feeling Is likely to grow on us that there Is something alto gether too familiar about him.
