THE GOVERNORS JOURNEY
He Will Visit the Southern Insitu-
tions This Week.

Governor Brodie will leave tonight
for the southern part of the territory
to visit the public institutions there.
He will inspect the prison and also look
into the needs of the university and
will return to the city by the middle Of
the week. He may be accompanied by
Mrs. Brodie and their son.
The governors visit to the south has
been delayed by the illness of Mr..
Smalley. his private secretary, who has
been suffering from tonsilitis. He was
much improved yesterday and by Mon
day will no doubt be able to take up his
duties again. 1t is expected that on his
return the governor will announce the
official changes he intends to make.
He has SO far given out no intimation
of his intentions. There is belief
that there will shortly be a change in
the superintendent of the territorial
prison and that there will be a shifting
about in the board of regents of the
university. But, as has been said. not
word on this subject has come from
the governor.
He has visited the hospital for the in
sane and went over the institution
very thoroughly. The impression is
general that there will be no change
in the management of that institution.

that the business men would stand
ready to assume their share of any bur-
den that might be placed upon the
$3.50. 900 could be raised in Phoenix to-
ward paying the government what it
might require for furnishing water to
the farmers of the valley.
There was the expression of an OBJ
lection. though it was not very gen
eral. against the building of a reservoir
by the government at all, on the
ground that the people would thereby
lose control of the water.
Some little time was lost near the
close of the meeting in the discussion
of a question of parliamentary practice
and in the meantime the valley kept
getting dryer than ever. 1t was called
10 the attention Of the meeting that the
discussion was, for the most part, pre-
mature. 1t had not yet been ascer-
tanned that the secretary could be in
duced to construct Il reservoir at the
Tonic basin site. and it was suggested
that the best thing to do would be Ia
find out what the department could be
induced to do. This suggestion was
put in the form of a resolution. which.
after considerable debate. was adopted.
and the meeting was adjourned sine
die. in spite of an effort to continue Il
discussion of the subject to a meeting
to be held next Saturday.
Chairman Ford will shortly an
nounce the names of the members of
the committee.

THE RESERVOIR CAMPAIGN
The Plan to Procure a Dam at the
Tonic Site.

A meeting of the water users of the
Of the CITY was heli. at the courthouse
yesterday morning for the purpose of
taking some action V hich might induce
the secretary of the interior to order
the construction Lf d reservoir al the
Tonic basin site, as he is empowered
to do under the NeWlands-H ansbrough
law. 1t had been announced that the
secretary had said that there was So
100000 available this year for the pur-
pose cf carrying out the purposes of
that law, and that he had determined
that construction work would be begun
il four states and one territory. The
territory il, Arizona. and it is under
stood that the secretary had in mind

los site.

good attendance of business mon and
a reasonably full representation from
the south side. It was called to order
by ]. T. Priest. DR.. J. NJ. Ford was
made chairman and F. H. Parker sec

At first there was a dis3Csition il
the meeting to bring up the questions
upon which the different parts of the
valley have been divided whenever the

There was the matter of priority and
the prices that the users under the diff

THE HONEY CROP
Arizona and Southern California Will
Both Be Short.

Mr.. J.. j. Toilet of Chicago arrived
here yesterday for the purpose of meet
ing the honey producers of the valley
or the representatives of the two asso-
Citations engaged in the production of
honey in this valley. Mr. Follett is d
representative of the American Biscuit
company. which is ii large consumer Of
that product. and his business was spe-
cially to learn the available Supoly
here, and the price at which it could
be purchased.
1t is Il sad fact that the honey p, .
duct of the valley will be smaller this
year than in any year since beekeeping
became an important industry. This is
due to the dry weather. and consc-
quent lack of FEED for the bees. There
has never been failure here yet in
the honey business. and presumably
there never will he for it can certainly
never get any dryer. But this year is
nearer to failure tcan ever. for it is
| estimated that not over eight carloads
will be available tor shipment. VILE
last year the c3<rort by the Arizona
Honey Exchange and the Bee Keepers
association of Maricopa county was
four times as great.
-.
Keepers are III better shape than some
lines of industry are found during q
prolonged 'lrnuth. for the bees vii
make enough honey to keep themselves
even though there is no profit. In the
cattle business, for instance, when the
feed IS gone the owner has to buy feed
or let his stock die.
| But Arizona is not a lone sufferer ir
! the bee business. Southern Caiiforniz
i had an excellent outlook for d goc.
crop in the Sp' ing. but for some reason
the sage Cn which the bees feed liz
not ield. al there is almost a pro 10 =
tionately equal shrinkage in the sala bl,
product. Where 500 cars were shipped
last year the estimate is now place
( at SeVenty-fiVe.
These conditions seemingly ought Il
stiffen the price OF what honey ther
is for sale, and probably will eventu
ally, but the bee kce pers say that a.
yet there is 10 appreciable change.

and had received his peerage and =

of London. When it came his turn to
