LADIES AND GENTLEMEN OF
 ARIZONA.

At the beginning of last week we were hopeful that the pacing record of the world would be broken on the Phoenix race track. In our disappoint- ment We are apt to have missed the | fact that record much more remark able than Audubon Boys I:5S IA has been established. Something has been done on the territorial fair grounds that will be of much greater benefit to the whole territory. if it gains public i ity. than if a new worlds pacing rec ord had been established.
 In the six days of the fair. the at tendance ranging from 6C0O to 10000. there was not an accident. no instance of disorderly conduct was reported, not an arrest was made, there was no gam bling of any character, there was no liquor selling and no noticeable drunk ness.
 We do not believe there was ever such an instance of good conduct in any other crowd that ever before col lected anywhere in the United States for six days, excepting of course, relig- ious or educational assemblies.
 All this happened in Arizona. The people who thronged the fair grounds day after day were Arizonians who have been held up to the world by Sen ator Beverige and others as devoid of culture and refinement, the rakings to-. gether of the scum of the earth. given to wild drunkenness and quickness of trigger fingers; a gambling and who'll Iy despicable lot of AIkali Ike and Cur ly Bills. names chosen to blind inquis- itive sheriffs fin other parts of the country.
 Yet in the orderly crowds which were damned in the grand stand with discomfort. which struggled for place about the race track or the street cars. there was no unseemly conduct. There was at no time a picked crowd. It was made up of miners from the depths of the earth. cowboys from the far-off ranges. merchants from their stores, mechanics from their shops, profes- sional men. farmers and from all class es and from every part of Arizona.
 Whatever the constituent members of these crowds ordinarily are, they were gentlemen and ladies for at least six days that we know of, and from 5000 to 10000 of them. We do not believe there are more gentlemen and ladies in Indiana, including even Senator Beveridge.

A WATER PROOF PAINT
After Tackling Toughest Roof
in Town is Declared
Success.

The Protection Paint Company,
a local concern using Motifs Fire
and Water Proof Paint, contrac-
ted to paint the roofs of some
buildings here that seemed far
past repairing, except with new
roof. New roofing had been
ordered and was in Il depot here
to repair one of the buildings,
but the new roofing was not used,
the new paint proving to be a
dead shot against leaks. Roofs
that have been painted appear to
be even better than a new roof.
We are pleased to know that
one of our townsmen has secured
such a paint. which seems to be
all that paint could be, and one
that proves to be all that is
claimed for it. Our advice to all
who have shingle or paper roofs
on mills or other buildings that
leak is to see the Protection Paint
Company and get them repaired.

of Mrs. Davis.
ADDRESSES WERE MADE

ans and Daughters Of
the Confederacy.


United Confederate Veterans and
William Walker Chapter 97G
United Daughters of the Confed-
eracy held a joint memorial meet
ing at the court house last Satur
day, in response toa call issued
by Commander Kelly.
The meeting was called to
order by Commander Kelly. who
eeelingIy and appropriately an
nounced the object of the meet
ing and called upon Rev. w. M.
Mcintosh of Iuka, Miss, to open
the proceedings with prayer.
The Commander then appoIn-
ted committee on resolutions
composed of Comrades Will A.
Strong and J. &. Teagle of David
Person Camp and Mrs. NJ. j.
Nelson of William Walker Chap
ter, who Immediately retired to
draft suitable resolutions. Dur
ing the absence of the committee,
Rev. Mcintosh made Il very elo-
quent talk to the veterans,
sons and daughters, which was
listened to and appreciated by all
those present.
Chairman, Comrade Will A.
Strong, of the committee on res
olutions, read the following pre-
amble and resolutions:
Whereas. the Great Comman-
der of the Universe has seen fit
to remove from this earth Mrs.
Varina Davis. the widow of onr
beloved and only president and
1.-The Mother of the Confeder-
acy" and
Whereas, this fact causes pro-
found grief in the hearts of all
true Confederate veterans, wives,
widows, sons and daughters who
shared with Mrs. Davis the trials
and struggles of that stormy
period from 1861 to 1865, and who
have, since the close of that
struggle, admired her steady de-
votion to the principles for which
her martyred husband laid down
his life, and
Whereas, it is now fitting and
appropriate that the men and
women of the Confederacy, which
Mrs. Davis eulogized, should give
expression to their grief on the
death of this noble self sacrificing
woman,
Therefore, be it resolved by the
members of David Pierson Camp
1903 United Confederate Veter-
ans and William Walker Chapter
976 of the Daughters of the Con-
federacy: That we are deeply
grieved at the death of VarIna
Davis, the mother of the Confed-
eracy, and widow of our be-
loved and only President of the
Confederate States of America,
who died at Hotel Majestic in the
city of New York on the 10th day
of October, 1906.
Be it further resolved: That
we recognize in her that type of
Southern womanhood which the
world has never before eXcelled
and which will serve as a model
for succeeding generations as the
best of her sex.
That we pay her those tributes
of affection and profound respect
due her lofty and exalted charac-
ter.
Be it further resolved: That a
page on the minutes of both
David Pierson Camp and William
Walker Chapter, be set aside and
that these resolutions be in
scribed thereon and a copy be
sent the Adjutant General of the
Louisiana division of the United
Confederate Veterans and State
