"WE ORIGINATE --- OTHERS IMITATE" Phoenix Tribune key to Happiness ARIZONA'S LEADING NEWSPAPER In 10,000 Homes TENNESSEE PASTOR CONDUCTS RAFFLE TO RAISE FUNDS (Special to The Tribune) Knoxville, Tenn., March 3. — The general comment of the conscientious membership of the Mt. Zion Baptist church, of which the so-called Rev. John H. "ohenzollern" Henderson is pastor, during the past week was the gambling game being conducted by the pastor and certain of the deacons of the church in which they are selling chances on a cow and calf to be raffled off, is the most ridiculous scheme that has ever been put over in a Christian church. Hundreds of members have visited The News office and expressed themselves as thoroughly grateful for the exposure of the deplorable condition and an evidence of the fear on the part of certain of the conscientious Christian women who go to make up the membership toward the domineering pastor "Kaiser John," in each instance is that they ask that their names be not mentioned. One woman came into the office of The News and stated: "There are several members of the church, like myself, who oppose such methods as are employed by Preacher Henderson, but we are fearful to oppose his plans, for we love our church and want to stay there, and the preacher and his small crowd of henchmen would throw us out." The lady told further of discrimination employed by "Kaiser John," toward the membership. "Why don't you know," she stated, "Rev. Henderson goes so far as to hold the funeral services of some of the poorer class of members in the basement of the church and those of his friends are taken in the main auditorium. Last week a poor woman died and greatly to the surprise of the relatives, when they got to the church Rev. Henderson ordered that the services be held in the basement of the church. Another funeral held later in the week was held in the auditorium." The deacon who is chief salesman for the chances on the "fine Jersey cow and calf," the prize in the raffling game, stated to a News man "me" and Rev. Henderson are using this means of raising money to build a flat and store on Patton street. I'm tired of working now, and I am going to open a grocery store in the flat when it is built. We connected the church with the raffling game so as to get the support of the member ship." Another lady, a member of the church stated to a representative of The News: "You didn't hear that they raffled off a hen up at the church not long ago, did you? Well, they certainly did and I was asked to buy one of the chances. We are grateful to you for exposing this deplorable condition. Rev. Henderson may get with such unlawful and ridiculous schemes in the wilds of Louisiana, from whence he came, but the intelligent and Christian citizenship of Knoxville will not tolerate such infamous tactics." To Our Readers No person is in a better position to know the attitude of the business concerns of a community than the one who solicits the advertisements and comes in personal contact with the heads of the business concern. When the advertisement of a business firm is carried in the Tribune, it not only serves as an announcement of the special prices or the line of goods handled by that concern, but it is a Direct Invitation to members of the race to patronize the business place; further, it is assurance of fair and courteous treatment. Go Where You Are Invited AUTOCRATIC PASTOR ISSUES "BULL"ETIN MISLEADS PUBLIC (Special To The Tribune- Washington, D. C., Marce 3.—Bus- ness meetings are held each night at the Mt. Zion Baptist church, of which the "Rev." John H. Taylor is pastor, following the killing of William Bush, prominent officer of the chuech, who opposed the tyrannical methods of the pastor. Says Jabez Lee, another of the officers who resides at 1600 Vermont Ave., N. W., "all of these business meetings are opened with prayer and closed with the police casualty list to date: 'One dead and many wounded.'" In an effort to mislead the public the domineering pastor has issued a "Bull'etin in which he states that there is perfect peace and harmony at his church. Officer Lee writes to the local press: "No person's life is safe at the church, who is opposed to Rev. Taylor and his methods and many of his opposers are staying away until the court passes on the issues now before it, effecting the church." H. L. Derricote, another member of Rev. Taylor's church and leading the opposition to his infamous acts, expresses determination to oust the preacher from his moorings, and voices the sentiment of the majority of the membership in stating that nothing in the way of good can be accomplished until that type of pastor is removed. MIND NOT EMOTION MUST RULE BLACKS IF THEYWOULD RISE MIND NOT EMOTION MUST RULE BLACKS IF THEYWOULD RISE (Associated Negro Press) Hampton, Va., March 3.—That General Samuel Chapman Armstrong's ideal for Negroes was the kind of education which would enable Colored men and women to live successfully in the same world of mind and spirit that the white man inhabits, was the opinion expressed by Mrs. Edith Armstrong Talbot, daughter of General Armstrong, in a recent address on "Armstrong and His Ideals," delivered here. Among other things, Mrs. Talbot declared that the white man's world is ruled by mind, not by feelings and emotions, and that the people who allow themselves to be governed by their feelings can never succeed in it. "Negroes should become a hard race—not hard like a rock, but hard like the sugar maple tree, which is wounded every year and loses its life blood, but heals its wounds overnight and is too busy growing to dwell on them. "Certain kinds of education help a man to gain the rule of mind over feeling. Industrial and technical education, artistic and business training, which require both practical application and abstract knowledge, help most. Classical education eplarges the scope of action of the man who has learned how to rule himself with his own mind, but does not help him gain such rule. WOODROW WILSON IS TOO CROSS TO REPLY TO HUMOROUS QUERY WOODROW WILSON IS TOO CROSS TO REPLY TO HUMOROUS QUERY (Associated Negro Press) New York City, N. Y., March 3.—A national humorous weekly tonight made public several statements from men of national prominence in response to its request for messages stating "why you believe the United States should smile at this time," for use in connection with the celebration of "national smile week," February 5 to 12. Among those who replied with words of cheer were Postmaster General Hays, Secretary of Labor Davis, Theodore Roosevelt and William J. Bryan. Woodrow Wilson replied: "I have no message to send on so silly a subject." PHOENIX, ARIZONA, SATURDAY, MARCH 4, 1922 GARVEY ARRESTED SECOND CHARGE USING MAILS TO DEFRAUD (Associated Negro Press) New York City, N. Y., March 3.—Charged with using the mails to defraud investors in the Black Star line, capitalized at $10,000,000, Marcus Garvey, president, was indicted here last week by the federal grand jury. Three other officers and directors of the line were indicted with Garvey, Garvey and the other defendants, according to the indictment, are alleged to have falsely represented to investors that the company intended to purchase one or more steamships and an excursion boat and to operate them at a profit. The bill also charges that the defendants represented that the Black Star line expected by means of a dollar drive to obtain an immense vessel for carrying to Africa workmen and materials for the building up of the "Great Republic of Liberia," for the Colored race. Mr. Garvey states that whatever basis exists for the charge came about through the unauthorized actions of a subordinate while he was out of the country recently. LOS ANGELES, CAL.

Little Albert Chism, Jr., age 6 1-2 years, was highly honored last week when he received a certificate for penmanship. He is the youngest student in the city schools of Los Angeles to receive a certificate. One of the most delightful affairs of the season was the dinner given Sunday by Mr. and Mrs. S. Poole at their palatial home in this city. The table was beautifully decorated and place card covers were laid for twelve. Mr. Poole proved that he was master of the art of carving, and the roast duck, which was the piece de resistance was served in generous portion to all. Those present were, Mrs. Danbridge, the honor guest, Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Shackleford, Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Moore, Attorney and Mrs. E. C. Jennings, Mr. and Mrs. Walton, Mrs. Dr. Ball, the host and hostess. Miss O. L. Freeman is a recent arrival from Englewood, N. J. She is staying at the home of her brother, Police Officer J. T.

Roberts, the accomplished wife of the editor of The New Age, shared honor with Mrs. White in entertaining this popular guest. Covers were laid for ten and a tempting five course luncheon was served. Mrs. Walthall assisted in serving. The color scheme of red, green and white was effectively carried out. The dining room was darkened, lighted only by means of tiny candles at each plate, which together with the place card of dainty red hearts, served to direct the ladies to their respective seats. Besides the guest of honor those present were Mesdames A. Hill Lewis, E. Patton, L. Moore, G. A. McCullough, E. Sanders and Dr. Somerville. Mr. James P.

POLITICAL MEETING BY COLORED PEOPLE WAS WELL ATTENDED A mass meeting of the Colored citizens of the city of Phoenix was held last Friday night at Dorris hall and it was very encouraging to note the number who presented themselves and the spirit with which they took hold of the meeting. The hall was filled with women and men who had the best interest of the race at heart. Attorney William E. Watkins called the house to order and stated the object of the meeting. His remarks seemed to have met a responsive cord in the bosom of his hearers. After listening to Attorney Watkins, the body proceeded to organize and elected Mr. Watkins as permanent chairman; S. W. Ford, vice chairman; Mrs. A. Stewart, recording secretary; G. S. Rodgers, corresponding secretary, and Mrs. L. A. Walker, treasurer. The name seleced was, "Progressive League," then the meeting was opened for general discussion. The meeting was political in its nature and the object as outlined by Attorneys Watkins and Fortune was to try and secure better recognition for the Colored people of Phoenix. It was a kind of a tree for all meeting and some warm campaign speeches were made. Had it been possible for the candidates themselves to hear the arguments pro and con, it would have proved quite interesting. Friends of both sides were present and some cutting remarks were let loose by several speakers. Frank Smith, veteran politician of the state, made a fiery speech in support of his favored candidates and was answered by Attorney Robt. L. Fortune in language that was more forceful than eloquent. Henry Davis made a sensible talk that was well received as also did several others. Resolutions were adopted condemning individuals of our group who attempt to sell the race for a mess of porrage. The final meeting of this league will be held this Friday evening in the Monroe school auditorium when several candidates from both sides will address the meeting. You are urged to attend the meeting tonight and hear from the candidates' own lips what they plan to give in the way of a business administration. Attend the meeting tonight and hear for yourself. GREAT RACE WAR IS IMMINENT SHOULD GARVEYISM PREVAH GREAT RACE WAR IS IMMINENT SHOULD GARVEYISM PREVAH (Associated Negro Press) Port of Spain, Trinidad, March 3.—It is not likely that the British government will consent to a further experiment in self government in this predominantly Colored colony. There are about 100 pure whites in this city of 65,000 polyglot peoples. The government is doing its best to keep agitators out and has prohibited the circulation of the Negro World, Marcus Garvey's paper which is alleged to be setting a slow fire in the West Indies and starting a movement which the authorities think eventually will lead to trouble. This movement preaches that the white man must stand in fear of the Colored man and predicts a race war. So far there has not been any trouble here but the Colored people want to elect more of their race to the legislative council. Race consciousness is growing and the natives are feeling their power. Returns To Albuquerque The Rev. W. T. Greene of Albuquerque, N. M., who was in the city several days last week assisting his brother, Dr. E. D. Greene of the Second Baptist church in conducting the revival, left Friday for his home in New Mexico. While in the city he was royally entertained by Phoenix society matrons. One of the most delightful affairs given in his honor was the dinner served by Mrs. H. H. Moore of 911 North Central avenue, when Dr. W. T. Greene, his brother, Rev. E. D. Greene and the Rev. T. J. Sanford were guests. GEN. PERSHING WILL WRITE TRIBUTE TO LIFE OF COL. YOUNG (Wassociated Negro Press) Washington, D. C., March 3.—National interest has been aroused in the movement to hold a country wide memorial for Colonel Charles Young, military hero, on March 12, the date of his birth. General John J. Pershing, commanding general of the American army, under whom Colonel Young served in Mexico and who recommended him as brigadier general, has consented to write a tribute to the life and career of this intrepid black soldier. The N. A. A. C. P. has endorsed this effort to honor the only Negro who graduated from West Point and will urge its branches to co-operate in their several communities. Captain Harry O. Atwood aide de camp to Colonel Young has just arrived in Washington from Africa. He described the last days of the famous soldier. Colonel Otis Duncan of the 8th Illinois, and officers of the 15th New York, are taking the lead in their respective communities. FLAGSTAFF The Willing Workers Club met last week at the home of Mrs. Mary Davis and held a very delightful meeting. We are very glad to have one of our old members back with us again in the person of Mrs. Beris. Mrs. Beris favored us with a speech and made some very encouraging remarks concerning the progress of the club. The questions brought in by Mrs. Polk were very interesting and were as follows: Q. Where is Hell Gate? A. Entrance to New York harbor. Q. Why was it so named? A. Because navigation was formerly dangerous on account of the eddies produced under certain conditions of the tide and hence the Dutch name of Horll Gall, from which the present term is derived. Q. Name two independent governments existing in Africa? A. Liberia and Abyssinia. The stork has made his annual visit to the home of Mr. and Mrs. Sam White and left a nine-pound baby boy, which has filled the home with joy. Mother and son doing fine.

Me for the diamond ring. Excellent Services Splendid services were held Sunday at the C. M. E. church and the pastor, Rev. M. Thompson, was at his best. In the morning he delivered the sixth of a series of sermons he is preaching on John's vision of the seven churches. In the evening he preached a plain practical sermon and his remarks were well received. On next Sunday evening he will preach the seventh and last of this series of sermons and all Phoenix invited to come out Sunday night and hear this great sermon. MINISTER DEMANDS INCREASE IN SALARY OUSTED FROM CHURCH (Special To The Tribune) Baltimore, Md., March 3.—An injunction of the trustees of the Israel Baptist church, No. 2; secured by the trustees and members of the church restraining Rev. E. E. Haskins from entering the church and denying him further rights and privileges as pastor was granted by Judge Stein in circuit court yesterday. The effort of the pastor to have an injunction issued restraining the deacons and trustees from locking him out of the church and seeking to compel them to pay him five hundred dollars in addition to his enormous salary, was denied by the court. The law suit resulted from the efforts of the Rev. Haskins to have his salary increased and at a meeting of the church, when a very few of the members were present, he had a salary raise voted him and when news of the action was spread among the general membership, much opposition resulted. The salary that had been promised prior to the voted raise was paid, but the additional amount was denied and that was what the domineering pastor was contending for and which resulted in his being ousted from the church pastorate by the court. U. S. SENATE IS NOW TAKING UP DYER ANTI-LYNCH BILL U. S. SENATE IS NOW TAKING UP DYER ANTI-LYNCH BILL (Associated Negro Press) Washington, D. C., March 3.—The senate has moved into action on the Dyer bill. The judiciary committee has referred the measure to a sub committee which after investigation will render a report. Senator Wm. Borair of Idaho is chairman of the committee and the other members are Wm. P. Dillingham, Lebaron B. Colt, Rhode Island, Lee S. Overman, North Carolina, and John K. Shields, Tennessee. Every church, club, lodge or organization of every description as well as every individual is urged to write each of these senators at once, addressing him at Washington. D. C., as well as the senator from their home states, urging favorable action upon the Dyer anti-lynching bill. The house has passed the measure which spells the death of lynching. It had active supporters there. The senate is dangerous ground and leaders here are certain that only a concerted effort which will make the senators realize that every one of ten million Negroes are watching their action, will cause the passage of the *bill*. This is the big opportunity for Colored people to sow the power of public opinion among our group. There is influential opposition to the bill. The south is solid against it and such important organs as the New York World and Chicago Tribune have carried editorials doubting its efficiency and constitutionality. Race leaders, however, council every liberty loving Negro to do his part. LOAN OF $5,000,000 TO LIBERIA HAS NOT YET BEEN ALLOWED LOAN OF $5,000,000 TO LIBERIA HAS NOT YET BEEN ALLOWED (Associated Negro Press) Washington, D. C. March 3.—In spite of former reports regarding the successful mission of President King of Liberia to this country, the Liberian loan of $5,000,000 has not been allowed. It is understood that the administration and treasury departments have O. K.'d the loan and that prospects are reasonably favorable for its passing congress in time. It will be remembered that President C. D. B. King spent some months here last year, endeavoring to arrange for the loan. 5 Cents a Copy; $2.50 a Year SEC. IRA T. BRYANT TO LOSE OFFICE FOR SCORING BISHOPS (Special to The Tribune) Montgomery, Ala., March 3.—Resolutions signed by Bishops B. F. Lee and J. S. Flipper, and adopted by the members of the African Methodist Episcopal Connection, in attendance at the Bishop's Council held here last week, were addressed to the bishops of the Zion Methodist and Colored Methodist Connections and apologized for the publication of an editorial in the "Young Allenite," edited by Ira T. Bryant, secretary of the Sunday School Union of the A. M. E. church, and editor of that publication. Secretary Bryant's editorial was the most scatching arraignment of the bishops that has been noted and attracted nation wide comment. The resolution follows: Montgomery, Ala., February 10, 1922. To the Bishops of the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church, and the Colored Methodist Episcopal Church: Whereas, in the month of January 1922, an editorial appeared in one of the publications of the Sunday School Union of the African Methodist Episcopal church, known as the "Young Allenite," containing incriminating statements, vicious inuendoes and slanderous inferences, the same being conceived, written and expressed in unchristian and malicious spirit, and Whereas, the contents of said editorial were directed against the two denominations heretofore named, and with which the African Methodist Episcopal church enjoys fraternal and friendly relations, therefore be it Resolved, That the Bishops of the African Methodist Episcopal church, for themselves, ministers and laity of the African Methodist Episcopal church do solemnly and unreservedly disavow and repudiate the acts and utterances of the editor of the "Young Allenite," in his untimely, ill-founded and reprehensible criticism and attack on Negro bishops. Resolved: That we humply apologize to the bishops, ministers and laity of the African Methodist Episcopal Zion church and the Colored Methodist Episcopal church for the insult and humiliation imposed upon you by Ira T. Bryant, the editor of the "Young Allenite." Resolved, That as further evidence of our sincerity, that the immediate resignation of Mr. Ira T. Bryant, as secretary-treasurer of the Sunday School Union of the African Methodist Episcopal church, be and the same is hereby demanded, and in case of his refusal to comply with this demand, that we request the board of managers of said Sunday School Union to suspend him from all functions of his office until the meeting of our general conference in 1924.

U talk to a man, look him straight in criminals permit their glances to wav Did you ever figure the loss of time in waiting for somebody, either at a railway station, a doctor's office or in some other place of appointment? You have no doubt been sorely vexed upon many occasion, but you made no account of the time so lost. Many times it may have put you to considerable inconvenience; perhaps the loss of a train, the loss of another appointment or the loss of a business deal. All this might have been avoided had certain parties kept their appointment, or had not the train been late, or had not some other cause prevented you from doing that which you had planned to do. It matters not whether a person's time is worth a dollar a minute or a dollar an hour, the loss is serious. We like to do business upon schedule time. The late train causes a monotonous wait, the haggler at the theatre window holds up a long line of persons who often lose their tempers. Prompt service is the motto of the successful business man. Delays irritate and lose customers. No man or woman wants to wait. It matters not whether they have the time to spare or not. They want to finish their business and go their way. If the dealy has caused them to lose other appointments it takes time to smooth the wrinkles out of a bad temper, and often a much longer time to recover what was lost by not keeping an appointment. Remember that promptness wins not only in business transactions, but in the commonplace matters of the day. Keep your appointments and you will always be in favor. Neglect them and you will soon find yourself outside the circle in which you wish to remain—Ex. Somebody is going to be disappointed when they awake Sunday morning. One thing the colored people need to learn is to forget their political differences after election and work together for the common good of all. We usually carry our differences to the grave. This should not be. We must learn to differ and still be friends. That's the manly way. We stamp our values upon ourselves and cannot expect to pass for more. What you are speaks so loud I can't hear you. We have faith in the banks of Phoenix. We deposit every day every dollar we take in. Go thou and do likewise. Phoenix is growing by leaps and bounds and a great future is before it. Some day soon this will be the liveliest city in the southwest. We predict 100,000 population by 1925. Watch Phoenix Grow. When you talk to a man, look him straight in the eye; only cowards and criminals permit their glances to waver.

Watch Phoe- look him straight in the eye; only their glances to waver. management, incompetency and insinuations of dishonesty of the present city administration. During my term as city commissioner, the first under Mayor Corpstein, in which the plans were made and the contract let for the redwood pipe line, and the second under Mayor Plunkett, in which the Verde pipe line was built, the whole purpose and endeavor of the city manager and the city commission was to execute this work as cheaply and economically as possible, consistent with good business, our first consideration being always to have all work done well and done right. Charges were freely and openly votes, is based on the alleged mismade in the election campaign two years ago that there was a "redwood pipe steal." But the insincerity of the accusers was apparent, for at no time, either during the campaign or afterwards, did they attempt to make any investigation, or in any way to prove those charges, thus making it plain that their allegations of graft were made only for the purposes of getting votes. This apparently is the policy of the "Taxpayers' Ticket," for while they do not directly charge us with graft in connection with the Vere water project, they allege gross mismanagement and extravagance in connection with this work. I want to say here that the city administration did nothing in secret or under a bushel, but from time to time, as the plans and the work progressed, we have published all the facts and figures in connection with this work, and on behalf of the mayor, the city manager, the city engineer and the commission I want to say that we will welcome any investigation by and reputable civic organization or body of taxpayers, and that we will place at their disposal any records or data in possession of the city and give them all the assistance possible in making such an investigation. The "Taxpayers' Ticket" in a signed statement published in both the daily papers, charged that the city administration, by a policy, of indifference and petty politics, delayed and retarded the construction of the Cave Creek flood control dam. This statement is absolutely false, for the city commission and the city manager did everything in their power to promote and expedite that work. The question is frequently asked "Why was the cost of the Verde water project so much more than the original estimate?" As I said before all these facts were given due publicity as the work progressed, but it appears that many people either neglected or were too busy to read them at the time, therefore a statement of them is very pertinent at this time. The facts are that we were caught in that great whirlwind of soaring prices of labor and material brought about by war conditions, as were hundreds of others one concrete example of which is the Arizona Deaconess hospital, which was estimated to be completed at a cost of $75,000. Since then we have spent that much and it will take at least $75,000 more to finish it. Our engineers' estimate of the cost of installing the Verde water project to Twelfth street and McDowell road, made on May 10, 1919, was $1,300,000. The time necessary for the calling of the bond election, advertising for the sale of the bonds, and the advertising for bids on the work took us up to March 19, 1920, when the contract was finally let, during which time the increase in the cost of the lumber necessary to build the pipe line alone amounted to $250,000 more than it was selling for at the time the estimate was made. This I think satisfactorily explains the increased cost of the Verde water project. The candidates on the "Taxpayers' Ticket" come out plainly on the issue of firing the present city manager and cleaning out the present city administration. I certainly admire their honesty but seriously question their judgment in this matter. Mr. Thompson has been in the service of the city for 15 years, serving as chief engineer of the water works, superintendent of streets and city manager. He is familiar with the requirements and detail of all the departments of the city, and he has under him a competent and efficient staff of department heads, who are honestly and faithfully carrying on the business of the city in the several departments, and to step in and fire the whole administration would be bad business for GOOD PLUMBING THEY SAY - KEEPS THE DOCTOR AWAY!

NEW ENGLAND JURY ACQUITS MAN WHO STABBED OFFICER (Associated Negro Press) Boston, Mass., March 3.—A jury in the superior court today returned a verdict of not guilty in the case of James A. Duncan of Columbia, S. C., a graduate student and instructor at Harvard University, charged with assault last May on David K. Blair a Colored policeman. In the lower court Duncan was sentenced to 3 months imprisonment. The charge grew out of an early morning incident in a south end doorway, when Duncan and his fiancee, Miss Frances Shannon of Franklin, Tenn., now his wife, were interrupted by the policeman while kissing good by. The officer claimed they were in a compromising and disorderly position. The policeman's request to move on was resented by Duncan. The word "Nigger" was used by Miss Shannon, there was a clash in which Duncan drew a knife, and the two then were arrested by Blair, who had been stabbed by the Southerner.

It was a battle royal and the fans were given a run for their money. It took the full nine innings to decide the winner and it was anybody's game until the last half of the ninth inning when the Sox, accidentally or incidentally, put over the winning score. The final score was 5 to 4 in favor of the White Sox. Next time it will be a different story to tell. *** Making His Mark Jim Roberts, the Colored painter and decorator who has been engaged in painting the interior of the new hotel now being built at 5th and Washington street, has closed a contract with Mrs. Sarah Stevens of 205 North 9th street and will tint, finish and repaint her home from cellar to garret.

He may be found at 728 East Washington street. Slightly Indisposed Bert McDonald, son of Mr. and Mrs. J. J. McDonald of Ray, who is staying at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Chas.

Fish entertained last week with a candy pulling at her home 909 East Jefferson street, in honor of Frank O'Neal and George Brown, it being the occasion of their anniversary. Many of their little friends were invited and all had the time of their lives pulling candy. The children will never forget Mrs. Fish and the other ladies who assisted her in entertaining them. Each child was given a generous portion of candy to take home with him and it was some happy bunch, believe me. Epworth League An enthusiastic, well attended and interesting meeting of the Epworth League was held last Sunday evening at the C. M. E. church when the subject, "Books and A Better Life," was discussed. The subject was opened by Mrs. C. C. Credille who read a very creditable paper.

MOORE BUTTON HOTCHKISS For a Clean, Efficient Business Administration LURED BY THE HIGH PRICES The animals of the farm should be regarded as living factories that are continuously converting their feed into products useful to man. A fact of great economic importance is that a large part of the food they consume is of such character that humans can not directly utilize it themselevs. Among the products yielded by the farm animals are not only articles of human diet, such as meat, milk, and eggs, but also such materials as wool, mohair, and hides, which are needed for clothing and other purposes. Another product of greater aggregate money value than any one of these is the work performed by horses and other draft animals. Altogether, the farm animals of the United States yield each year products worth over $5,000,000, a sum nearly as great as the value of all the crops annually harvested on our farms. As the population of our country becomes more dense, most naturally and property a smaller portion of the crops raised will be fed to animals and a larger part consumed directly by humans. This change must come with the increased demand for human food, since even high-producing animals are able to convert only a part of the feed they eat into food for our consumption. Accordingly, with our increasing population, we should expect the census statistics to show that the number of animals on our farms was falling in some small degree to keep pace with the increase in people. The actual decrease in farm animals compared with population is, however, surprising. While the population of the United States increased 21 per cent during the decade 1900 to 1910, the number of cattle and sheep decreased, and the number of swine increased but slightly. This indicates that if animal products are to hold their present important place in the diet of our people, American farmers must more thoroughly appreciate the basic advantages of stock farming and better Men who are sincere and honest in their motives do not have to resort to cartoons, anonymous and scurrilous literature or any other medium that is designed to cloud the real issues upon which they are making their stand. We have every confidence in the intelligence and judgement of the citizens of Phoenix and feel certain that they will not permit their reason to be influenced or swayed by methods that no self-respecting person would care to be identified with. We have kept our hands clean and no political trickery, that our opposition may stoop to, will cause us to swerve in the smallest degree from the open and above-board policy that we have maintained throughout this campaign. We have plainly told the voters of Phoenix the names of the men who persuaded us to accept the nominations for municipal offices; we have published our platform and the principles for which we stand---all of our cards are laid squarely on the table where all may see. undehstand the principles and methods which are essential to its success. Lured by the high prices which have ruled for grain and other crops in recent years, many farmers all over the country have sold their crops for cash, rather than following the wiser plan of marketing a portion through the feeding of live stock, and thereby maintaining a balanced agriculture. Seldom have they realized that with every ton of grain thus sold they are removing from their farms $7 to $8 worth of fertility. The loss through such mining of the soil is gradual but in a comparatively few years there will result none the less surely wormout fields, lacking in plant food and humus, which must ever aterwards be fed with fertilizers to secure fair crops. On the other hand, if a part of the crops are fed to live stock and proper care is taken of the resulting manure most of the fertility may be retained on the farm, and the need of commercial fertilizers long delayed. Under intensive stock farming, where more or less milling by-products rich in fertilizing constituents are usually purchased and fed on the farm, the land will even become richer and more productive year by year. Mr. Fletcher (in Congressional Record)—The item of printing and binding in these days has become of very great consequence. It is costing the government today $14,000,000 to do the printing and binding here in Washington. It is costing $2,000,000 a year under private contracts to do government printing in Washington. It is costing $2,000,000 a year more in plants outside of Washington; so that we are actually spending today $18,000,000 to do the printing for the government. Mr. Warren—And, if the senator will permit me, we rise here every morning and ask for the printing of every kind or material and stuff in the Record and in documents, and forget, for the time being, that there is any such thing as economy in printing.

GREEN PEA PIRATES but the fourth carried away the cabin, leaving the wreck of the pilot house with the helmsman unscathed, sticking up like a sore thumb. "Turn her around and head straight for them," the gallant Gibney roared. "She's a smaller target comin' bows on. We're broadside to her now." "Gib, will you ever sink that Greaser?" Captain Scraggs sobbed hysterically. "Don't want to sink her," the super-cargo retorted. "She's a nice little schooner. I'd rather capture her. May be we can use her in our business, Scraggsy," and he continued to shower the enemy with high bursting shrap THE CANNON "My Maggie's Tail Is Shot Away." nel. When the two vessels were less than two miles apart the one-pounders came into action. It was pretty shooting and the wicked little shells ripped through the old Maggie like buckshot through a roll of butter. Mr. Gibney sild flat on the deck beside his gun and Captain Scraggs sprawled beside him. "A feller," Mr. Gibney announced, "has got to take a beatin' while lookin' for an openin' to put over the knockout blow. If the old Maggie holds together till we're within a cable length o' that schooner an' we ain't all killed by that time, I bet I'll make them skunks soft an' low." "How?" Captain Scraggs chattered, "With muzzle bursts," Mr. Gibney replied. "I'll set my fuse at zero, an at point-blank range I just rake everything off that schooner's decks. Guess I'll get half a dozen cartridges set an' ready for the big scene. Up with you, Admiral Scraggs, an' hold the fuse setter steady." "I'm agin war," Scraggs quavered, "Gib, it's sure h—ll." "Rats! It's invigoratin', Scraggsy, There ain't nothin' wrong with war, Scraggsy, unless you happen to get killed. Then it's like cholera. You can cure every case except the first one." They have come inside the minimum range of the Mexican's long gun now, so that only the one-pounders continued to peck at the Maggie. Evidently the Mexican was as eager to get to close quarters as Mr. Gibney, for he held steadily on his course. "Well, it's time to put over the big stuff," Mr. Gibney remarked presently. "Here's hopin' they don't pot me with rifle fire while I'm extendin' my compliments." As the first muzzle burst raked the Mexican Captain Scraggs saw that most of the terrible blast of lead had gone too high. Nevertheless, it was effective, for to a man the crews of the one-pounders deserted their posts and tumbled below; seeing which the individual in command lost his nerve. He was satisfied now that the infernal Maggie purposed ramming him; he had marveled that the filibuster should use shrapnel, after she had ranged with shell (he did not know it was percussion shrapnel) and in sudden panic he decided that the Maggie, mortally wounded, purposed getting close enough to sink him with shell-fire if she failed to ram him; whereupon the yellow streak came through and he waved his arms frantically above his head in token of surrender. "She's hauled down her img. shurfeked Scraggs. "Be merciful, Gib. There's men dyn' on that boat." "Lay alongside that craft," Mr. Gibney shouted to the helmsman. The schooner had hove to and when the Maggie also hove to some thirty yards to windward of her Mr. Gibney informed the Mexican, in *atrocious Spanish* well mixed with English, that if the latter so much as lifted his little finger he might expect to be sunk like a dog. "Down below, everybody but the helmsman, or I'll sweep your decks with another muzzle burst," he thundered. The Mexican obeyed and Captain Scraggs went up in the pilot house and laid the terribly battered Maggie alongside the schooner. The instant she touched, Mr. Gibney sprang aboard, quickly followed by Captain Scraggs, who had relinquished the helm to his first mate. Suddenly Captain Scraggs shouted, "Look, Gib, for the love of the Lord, look!" and pointed with his finger. At the head of the little iron-ralled com- panion-way leading down into the engine room a man was standing. He had a monkey wrench in one hand and a greasy rag in the other. Mr. Gibney turned and looked at the man. "McGuffey, for a thousand!" he bel- (Continued Next Issue) THE PHOENIX TRIBUNE—ALWAYS IMPROVING PHOENIX TRIBUNE Subscription Contest $100.00 DIAMOND RING FREE Diamond on Display in Window FUNK JEWELRY CO. 44 West Washington Street To the Tribune representative that sends in the largest amount in subscriptions before March 15, 1922, the Management of The Phoenix Tribune will give a $100.00 diamond ring ABSOLUTELY F R E E Help the lady of your choice win this dazzling beauty by subscribing for The Tribune direct or through agent.

HUNDREDS WITNESS KU KLUX CEREMONY AT GRAVE OF MEMBER (Associated Negro Press) Charlottesville, Va., March 3.—The hundreds who gathered at Oakwood cemetry this afternoon to witness the burial of Sheriff Camm M. Thomas, victim of the Lexington hotel fire, stood amazed following the Mason ceremonies when six white robbed members of the Ku Klux Klan silently scaled a high rock wall and forming in the figure of a cross marched to the newly made grave bearing a large cross of red flowers. After placing the wreath on the grave, the klansmen gave the sign of the cross, retraced their steps, leaped over the wall and entered a closed auto which had been stripped of its license number. The machine made a quick getaway headed toward the cemetery. Watch.
