 It pays to advertise. The Repubii- can believes in advertising not only the territory and the Salt River valley in particular, but believes in advertls- ing itself It advertises itself better and more thoroughly than does any other institution in the territory. This is an age of advertising and If any wish to know who or what succeeds IT this world they can be laconloally ln- formed, the best advertiser. As only one business enterprise out Of five sue ceeds but one out of five is good ad- yertiser. There are some individuals who refuse to advertise who even en- deayor to stem the tide of modern ad- vertising, but these, when the. up-tc- date man happens along and sets h1s ad against the suns rays, pale into comparative insignifcance or are crushed entirely by he rush to get into the reflected light of the strangers display. As with indlvld- uals, so with town or community A district possessed with the right spirit will advertise itself. It has been the object of the south side department O. The Republican to give the news and at the same time advertise that DOT tion of the Salt River valley south of the river and show what it's real re- sources were more especially than what it's prospects were. Too many people are dreaming of the Hudson reservoir. of enormous water power, of ranching with electricity, of trans porting grain on canal boats, of beau tiful little cities dotting the vast eX- panse that is now burning desert. The people in this valley are not wealthy enough to build the founda- ton of the Hudson dam, so therefore they willhave tow ait on some outsider to become interested enough to in vest. The immediately practical thing that the south side wants is i'm migration. New settlers to fill up what is really a sparseiy settled dis trict-a district capable of supporting much larger population with the amount of water at hand than 1t does. The way to capture these new settlers is to tell that what there is on the south side. If that district has been so remote heretofore as to be unfa- miliar with the county board of super visors. and if after months of contin- ued talk Of it's resources and products, has finally convinced the supervisors Of the importance Of that community to the ex ent of raising it's property valuation in certain districts, it is a satisfaction to know that one step has been gained in the right direction in that the south side is no longer re- mcte part of the Salt River valley. Some grieve that this step has been made because of the slightly heavier drain On their pocketbooks. They should not grieve, however, for the money will all be spent in the valley fer Improvements, which is the best inducement for others 10 come and help them bear their burdens.
