Origin Of the Jazz Band.

The jazz band idea, according to a
French paper, originated in the time
Of the Directory. At the concerts of
the Cat orchestra were twenty cats,
heads in a row on the keyboard, of a
harpsichord. The performer by strik.
ing the keys pulled the cats tails,
causing caterwauling which sounded
like jazz baSd.

PROVE VALLEY CAN
CROW MANY THINGS

That the farmers of the Salt Riv-
err valley can raise other crops be-
sides cotton aad make those crops as
worth while as cotton ever dared to
be is shown by two exhibits which
were brought to the chamber of COM
merce by Phil Ensign and z. F. Van
Kirk.
Ensign, who is champion cotton
grower, according to a prize awarded
him at the last state fair, and who
also has won iaurels as dairyman
and a grower of apricots, having
had returns of as high as $500 an
acre from the fruit, brought to the
chamber of commerce samples of
White Pearmain apples grown on his
ranch on the Alhambra road, route
No. 3. The apples are large and are
smooth skinned and appear to be the
equal of any others in the market,
although it was not possible to as
certain their flavor because of the
fact that the sample contained only
enough apples for the secretary, the
assistant secretary and the infor-
nation secretary.
Van Kirk, who has weathered the
winter rains and the summer heats
of the Salt River valley for 33 years
and who has become well known as
a breeder of fine horses and splen-
did dairy cattle, Is exhibiting at the
chamber of commerce some Mexican

scores OF floral sets from the other
banks of the city and from various
individuals carried messages of con-
graduation and cooperation.
During the day it was estimated
that more than $500 visitors entered
the bank, and even with this the bust
ness conducted was said to have
marked the day as real work-day
for the officers and their assistants.
E. A. Tovrea, the new chairman of
the board of directors of the bank,
who has been in Bisbee, came to
Phoenix especially for the opening,
and spent the day in greeting his
friends. Among the many visitors
who called to express their good will
were officials of other banks.
Throughout the day hundreds of
congratulatory kilograms and letters
were received by the officers of the
bank, paralleling the expressions of
goodwill that came verbally from
hundreds of Phoenicians.
In speaking of the re-opening of
the bank. Arthur T. Esgate, cashier
Of the Valley bank, said:
Proof of Valley Spirit
"The reopening of the Bank of
Phoenix is a splendid proof of the
spirit of the Salt River valley. 1t is
impossible to estimate the amount of

opening OF the bank, not only as
business proposition but for the
community as a whole. 1t means in
creased stability, better business feel
ing and a firmer faith in this section
of the Southwest"
Charles F. Solomon, president of
the National Bank of Arizona, ex-
pressed his good wishes in the fol-
lowing words:
Il consider the reopening of the
Bank of Phoenix-the reorganized
Central bank-as one of the best in
dications of the stability of the Salt
River valley-an indication which
seems to emphasize what we know is
already the case, that conditions are
gradually getting better. The funda-
mentals of the valley. so to speak, are
in excellent condition. We have the
products, we have people showing the
right spirit. and we are coming back.
This is the spirit which helped to
open the bank and has made its
present good condition possible
Another expression of goodwill
came from William H. Thomson, vice
president of the Phoenix National
bank, who said:
The reopening of the bank means
much to the depositors and the COM
munity. 1t has our sincere good
wishes for the future"

WAYS TO PICK IMMIGRANTS

When a permanent immigration
measure is passed. il will no doubt con-
tain 4 restriction method based upon
the plan ~prop"S"d IN the Dillingham;
Till. the Sterling hill or tn" ~efy bill.
These plans are similar. Yet they have
certain distinctly" features.
In the Dillingham; bill 1t Is provided
that h" number uf aliens admitted in
any one year shall hc limited TO five per
cent Of the persons of such nationality
resident in the United States. said ma
,ionality To- hc determined by former
political allegiance.
This bill does not specify whether
nationality" shall include both those
who have been naturallzrd and those
who have not. or only the latter.
In the Sterling bill 1t is specified that
the percentages shall he determined
from naturalizcd citizens and native
born children Of 4 foreign born father
or mother only. The WcIty bill makes
the aumbcr Of naturalizcd citizens the
basis.
If the percentage be based ON the
Uu,nbcr of persons OF any nationality
here who have not been naturalizcd, il
is plain that the type of immigration
Of the most recent years will be con-
linucd. Those who have been found
hard to asSim!latc would also benefit
under this plan.
In other words. this plan would mean
that the majority Of our immigrants
would continue to ONE from southern
and eastern Europe.
IL the percentage be based upon natu-
rallied citizens of m nationality al
ready here. tho effect would be 10 admit
more Of the types who constituted the
bulk of our immigrants a number OF
years ago. and those who ave been
most readily asSimilated.
II is plain, then, that the Sterling or
the Wclty plan is better than the Dill
lingham plan. If the latter includes
those who have not been naturalizcd.
This is Il point that should DO spccitical-

this particular position as second to

The correspondent Of the 1nt~elligencer
sets forth the foregoing with absolute
guarantee OF its substantial verify.
Tic man that Senator Elkins has In
mind, who, he says hts the presidential
measurement, IS former Governor A. B.
White. Of Petersburg. 1t is well under
stood by Republican party leaders that
Senator Elkins is exceedingly desirous
of getting his friend and supporter, the
ex-governor. placed In a comfortable and
remunerative berth under the Harding
regime. Senator. Sutherland Is not quite
so anxious. but he has told all inquirers
thai he will join with his colleague in
urging the appointment OF Gov. White
to any job not on the States regular al
lotment of federal appointments. There
is no question in anybody's mind but
what Senator Sutherland genuinely

The obstacle Ito carrying out this

a temporary obstacle, Is that Gov. White
