DRY FARMING.

What is called the Campbell method" of cultivating the soil in thls territory without irrigation, and which | some of the territorial papers are now booming as something new under the sun, has been practiced by the people of Torreon, Cedro. Tijeras and various other settlements in the vicinity for time out of mind aud while it is not as reliable as farming by irrigation, experience has demonstrated that the "dry" farmer can count with certainty upon as many good crops in a given number of years as the rain" farmer in any of the states But those pa pers which are pushing this method are doing a good work. and rendering valuable services to the entire "arid region" by calling the attention of the public to the fact that a considerable part of the area of this region can be made to produce good crops without irrigation if cultivated carefully and thoroughly y.-Albuquerque Journal.
 The same question of dry farming can be carried on in nearly every sec ton in Arizona to a greater or less degree.
 Before the coming of the whites to this section the Indians did a large amount of farming dependent entirely ,,,o, -a;ufou ap5 ;p Faot r,apr. of the | small tribes of the Papagoes continue this same system of farming in the western part of Pima county and with more than ordinary success. The Star has many times called attention to the fact of fall planting of barley | and wheat and the success which has obtained not far from Tucson, where it has been tried. is obvious. Some I times the crops have failed to mature, but good wheat and barley hay has | been made where it was discovered theer was not sufficient moisture to insure the grain crop. Northern Ari

 southern Arizona can be cultivated and gardened and fruit raising made a success on the dry farming system. This is an important matter for the consideration of our farming commu nifty and should be investigated and

GRAHAM COUNTY MUST HANG HER HEAD.

The pardon Of Walter Trimble, who was found guilty of one of the most horrible crimes ever committed in this territory, has come ss such 6 shock to the people of this county that they hardly realize what it means. All there is left for them to do Is to hang their heads in shame to think that such a man could gain his liberty after committing so hid
 eous an Offense. This demonstrates beyond the question of a doubt the necessity of legislative action for the appointment of a board of pardons, and this appointment must be made through the legislature and not by the governor The facts surrounding this pardon should be made public. Governor Kibbey owes it to this county and this county demands it. If the penitentiary is not the place for criminals of the Trimble- type the galloTs ought to be, instead of allow
 ing such a man his liberty. This is an outrage we cannot in any way sanction or understand, and We await anxiously the facts which brought forth the pardOn.-Morenci Standard.

administrationists

The administrationists in New Mexico, or rather the three big guns of the territorial administration, Gov
 ernor Otero, Delegate Andrews and Max Frost, the veteran editor of the Santa Fe New Mexican, were in
 Washington together for several days during the present month Colonel Frost gave it as his opinion on re turning to New Mexico that Speaker Cannon was as firmly in favor of joint statehood for New Mexico and Arizona as ever he was, and went farther and stated that President Roosevelt favored the joint statehood scheme. If the President should rec. ommend joint statehood in his mess age, thereby giving to the measure the active support of his administra- tion. we believe that the doom of Arizona is sealed, so far as the hopes of the people of this territory for sin. gle statehood are concerned. But even if the bill passes there will yet be a chance to fight the constitution, but we believe there would be little chance to win such a fight, unless the territories were given the right to vote separately on the proposition

CANAL BY CONTRACT
Government Will Invite Bids
For Construction of the
Big Ditch
WILL. BE DIVIDED IN SECTIONS
Contractors Will be Asked to Submit
Propositions for the Work of Exca-
vatins-Taft Has Strong Preference
For the Contract PIan-Easier to
Deal With Contractors.

Washington, Oct "a The Panama
canal will be built by contract and not
by day labor, as originally planned. 1t
will be divided into sections, each
section to be a mile or more in length
and contractors invited to submit bids
for the work of eXcavating.
This is the method that was employ
ed with such phenomenal success in
the construction of the Chicago dram
age canal. John. +. Wallace urgently
recommend its adoption ver.f soon
after he became chief engineer and
presented so many arguments in its
favor that he convinced both President
Roosevelt and Secretary Taft OF the
advisability OF adopting it.
The old canal commission organized
upon the principle that lit was bound
present commission has been working
in harmony with that theory. 1t has
expended vast amounts for machinery,
tools, costly supplies that are required
in construction enterprises. 1t mas
bought dredges, steam shovels drills
and millions of feet OF timber all of
which has cost the government a large
sum Of money.
Secretary Taft is of the opinion that
in the end these expenditures will be
regarded as justifiable economy be-
cause they have enabled the commits
sion and its engineers to ascertain
facts; concerning the canal which other
wise they could not have known. They
are now Informed as to the nature OF
the soil along the route Of the canal
and can form reasonably accurate esi-
mates upon which to base the unit
prices for contract work. Moreover,
they can draw specifications with In
tellit,ence upon which contractors may
base estimates for work to be perform
ed.
Secretary Taft issued a statement
last night in which he said that no
definite understanding regarding the
method Of building the canal has been
reached. He indicates. however, so
strong preference for the contr let plan
that there does not seem he much
doubt about it's ultimate adoption.
Nearly all the members Of til e inter-
national commission of consul ing en-
gine,ers strongly favor the contract
plan. Isbam Randolph OF tfis COM
mission, who has been chief engineer
of the drainage canal, seems to have
convinced most of his colleag les that
not only time and money but infinite
worry and friction may be saved by
dealing with responsible contractors.

SUNDAY SCHOOL REFORM.
Doomed to Deseneracy Unless More
Modern Methods Are Adopted.

Special to Times Republican.
Des NIoines, Oct. 24.-Rev. Edward
A. Horton, D. D.. of Boston. who came
here to attend the convention OF the
Unitarian Sunday School Society, in
an effort to accomplish something IN
the line Of reform, makes the state
ment that unless Use churches OF the
United States adopt more modern
methods in their Sunday schools these
schools are doomed to degeneracy.
People will quit sending their children
to Sunday school in any of the
churches unless they are given actual
training in religious living. Modern
pedagogy must be applied. The Sun
day schools must have kindergartens
and trained and salaried teachers II
they want to keep abreast Of the
times said DR.. Horton.
At the convention, Rev. D. j. III.
Ward, Of Iowa City, gave an account
of his studies of the religion Of the
Musquakie Indians Of Tana county.
These studies were made under the d.
rection of tho Iowa Historical Society.
The business of the conference was
transacted today and the national
Sunday school meeting will be held on
Wednesday.
