Editor, The Republicans:
 I am writing in the hope of sscur- ing popular attention to a matter that affects very vitally the appearance and weIl-being of this city You per- sonally remember when Phoenix was called the Garden City. In evid ' ce were a Garden City drug store and a Garden City restaurant For years this designation has not been used. Before our slIyscrapers had been reared, Phoenix, from the hilltops, was to be located only by reason of the density of it's verdure It was notable as the only city in Arizona in which every street was bordered by rows of cottonwood, ash and euca- lyptus trees and by palms, these watered by ditches, in which, on some thoroughfares, water ran al- most continually.
 Phoenix now is being paved, and, one of the penalties of metropolitan greatness, a large proportion of the trees along her thirty miles of pave ments are dying, the root growth stifled by the bitulithic earth cover ing. or for lack of moisture, for most of the ditches have been eliminated or the water is being conducted through earthen piping.
 One of the most expensive items of our city government, and one of the most troublesome, is the handling of ditch water. Possibly, under our new Verde supply system there will be enough water to irrigate the trees from fire hydrants. But, whatever the means, I am writing to urge upon individual householders the impor- tance of maintaining the growth of the trees and palms that border the streets and roads. for a treele7s Phoe- nix would be a Phoenix shorn of beauty and Phoenix devoid of comfort in summertime I am sure that the city government will CO., operate, for evidence already is plain on every hand that trees will not grow without water.

Coach Dinglebury says the penalty was a outrage as none of his men was ever offside in their life. He had learned them diff ferent.
 Well friends when a man is a foot ball reporter he gets acquainted with the different coaches and asst coaches and they's a few of them that is as good fellows as you want the different coaches and assist coaches and some of my best friends Is asst. coaches and a few head ones too. And if any of the last named is reading this article I want them to understand that they are not the ones I am talking mean about. It's the ones that ain't reading this ar ticle that I refer to when I say that they's no class of people that com pares with head coaches when it comes to fair mindness unless it's the boys that wrote the official com muniques dureing the war.
 During my turn of services as a  occasions when different head coach es spent the sabbath writeing a let ter to my sporting editor asking him to give me the air as a special favor to them. And they was also 2 occa- sions when coaches wrote to him and said that my write up of their game the day before was the best football report they had ever read and lest my readers should think l am bragging I will hasten to ex- claim that in each of these 2 cases the teams who these gents coached had win close game and my articles was nothing but hymns of praise for how well the teams was coached.
 THE COACHES RECEPTION
 AFTER GAME
 One of a football reporters little chores is generally to look up both coaches after the game and see what they have got to say for themself. The coach of the winning team pret- ty near kisses you but you don't no sooner than lty eyes on the other guy when you realize for the first time that the result of the game was your fault. I won't repeat none of the alibis that these birds have thought up as you would think I was copying out of Joe Miller's joke book but in- stead of that will tell you about the time I got the surprise of my young life and that was up to Ann Arbor Mich. Cornell and Michigan had just had a alleged contest and the score was something like 35 to 10 in favor of Cornell, So afterwards

 Well friends here it is the middle of the football season and maybe your favorite team looks like it will win the championship. and I don't want to be no kill joy but I can't resist from telling you what a treat you missed this fall namely l was going to write up some of the big games down east but at the last minute the boss said no. He didn't state no reasons but I wouldn't be surprised if I knew what they was and 1 guess he is right for once. I don't know nothing about the game but that don't seem to stop a few of the other boys that is writeing it up and 1 doubt if my mgr. took that part of it into considerations but I guess he felt like my write ups would be kind of silly and I might get smart and introduce a spirit of levity into my write ups which would be out of keeping with game which is almost sacred you might say and the coaches and aluminium of all the different colleges would be off of me for life. Then in the 2d. place maybe he ask ed the different newspapers if they wanted the stuff and they all said no. If that is the case it may of Lad something to do with his deci sion as he is funny that way.
 Well anyway I ain't going to write up no football games but vile we are on the subject would like to say a <cw wds in regards to this gre t Sa- tumu complaint and firstly I beg to assure my readers that when inform cd that my services as football re- porter was neither required or de-

LOOK FOR new TERMS
Dali Eireann Will Make No Coun-
ter Proposals.
Sim Fein Leaders Convinced English
Offer Was Not Last Word of
Lloyd George.

Dublin, Aug. 24--Dail Eireann will
reject the English peace proposals and
will not make counter offer. it was
learned from a prominent republican
leader.
The reason for this proposed action
is that the Sim Fein leaders are con-
v1nced that the English offer was not
the last word of Premier Lloyd George
and that further concessions may be
expected.
1t is understood that canon De
Valera's reply to the English peace
offer now is in the hands of the Sim
Fein parliamentarians, but that it will
not be forwarded to London until the
end of the week.
London, Aug. 24-Dail Eireann,
which has been sitting at Dublin, is
united on the Irish peace question and
there is little likelihood of a split, said
dispatch from Dublin.
The London morning newspapers
which are supporting the Irish policy
of the British cabinet again expressed
optimism and urged the public to be
patient in view of the prolonged dis
cuSSiOnS
The Dublin correspondent of the
Daily Telegraph says that while a
strong faction of Dali Eireann clings
to the idea of a republic, there is an
other important body that is willing to
see how far the dominion status of
Ireland will carry.
The CORRESPONDENT warned tha nnh-
lie that the republican parliament will
not split and that whatever answer is
made to Premier Lloyd George will
give the united opinion of the parlia-

CHAMP ION ESCAPER LEAVES BALI
 CAME AT PRISON YARD; TNO PALS
 SHUT AS THEY HURDLE THE FENCE
Associated Press Night wire)

TACOMA, Wash, Sept. 5.-Roy Gardner, California mail bandit, es- capped from McNeil Island federal penitentiary late today during a jail break in which Everett Impyn, a fed eral life prisoner, was shot and killed. Lawardus Bogart, another life pris- oner; was shot and possibly fatally wounded.
 First reports said that Gardner was wounded. Officers started the chase for him at once. Warden Ma loney and his deputies said they were confident Gardner had not es- caped from the island unless he had confederates waiting.
 The jail break came during a ball game when more than 25O prisoners were standing around the prison yard watching the game Gardner was playing on the team. The three pris- oners are said to have made a rush tor the fence. Impyn was shot and killed almost instantly by the guards Gardner got over the fense. Bogart was recaptured and taken to the prison hospital
