Demijohn and Living Out of
Doors a Little

Sleeping out of doors has great
merit. The stars are the ceiling
You can imagine you feel the swing
or the world as it wheels its under
side on top to be exposed once more
TO its diurnal bath of sunshine. There
come cool ripping breezes at night.
even when there is no wind, and your
rest is so sound that the pale streak
ings of dawn seem to have reached
over to kiss the last fading traces of
the belated twilight of midsummer.
All night there will come twittering
OF birds as some robbin or hedge
sparrow nestles a little nearer its
mate and threatens to crowd it off
the perch. There is no dark brown
fiaor in your mouth when you sleep
out. The undertone of silence is
penetrated by the chirping of crick-
cts, the droning of. cicadae and the
thrilling of an occasional frog in
some water hole. The night has
many surprises, and enhances the
sweetness of the faintest and most
rudimentary music. l have listened
to a couple of boys tramp by few
blocks away, accompanying each
other on mouth organs that came
across the cooling stiffness of the
night with the effect of the choicest
orchestral music. The same is true
of the discordant ocal intercourse
of bunch of house cats. Their acri-
monious howlings interspersed with
yells of fiendish triumph get mel
lowed down by the atmospheric per-
spective of the night until they are
quite musical and take on some of
the qualities of lullaby mixed with
infant squalls.
While l was working in my hay
field and thinking on some of the
social problems of the day one of my
neighbors, who is a Socialist, got
over the fence and went to work on
the other side of the field. He called
in a CHEEKY way that. he wanted to
show what a good neighbor he was
in helping me to save my crop. Pret-
ty soon our winrows brought us
near enough for general conversa-
tion, and found his talk very enter
tanning. He told me how a great
Socialist lecturer was at Salem be-
fore the primaries, and some of the
most active political aspirants at
tended and gave all manner of en-
couragement to the cause he was
presenting. One who was a candi-
date for a state office, and has been
prominent Republican politician,
told the lecturer that the Socialist
reform was sure to come about.
Nothing can stop it," said the office
seeker of the other party. Powder
and bullets cannot stop it," he
added, and then led my friend and
neighbor out to one side and wanted
to hire him to work for him on
promise of an office. But he was not
to be hired, and had to decline the
proffer of Republican money. An
other reform aspirant offered my

THE CIVIC PROBLEM.
From the Improvement Point of
View-Address by j. Horace
Mcfarland, Harrisburg, Pa.
President of the American Civic
Association.

The civic problem, 1t seems to me,
is peculiarly a matter of improve
ment, and therefore the improve
ment point of view would seem to
cover all the problems.
Looking at this subject from the
standpoint of the American Civic
association, l cannot but put 1t
against the correspondence and the
occurrences of the three years dur
ing which l have held an executive
relation to the association and its
predecessors.
Considered thus, it seems to me
that the problem is largely one of
demand and desire on the part of
those who would gladly do the civic
duty presented to them If they could
be advised of its needs and its ex-
tent.
There is no doubt that a great
arousing could be made where there
is as yet no feeling for civic inn
provement If the agencies most of us
know of could be efficiently used;
but speaking from the experience
alluded to l am strongly convinced
that all present resources and activi-
ties used to be directed primarily to
the coordination and use of the OBJ
viously strong desire to do right in
a civic way being expressed by
many communities all the time.
The civic problem dealing with
home affairs had hardly been
esteemed as one purely philan-
thropic. l present, however, and
maintain, that it is a purely philan-
thropic problem, taking rank with
missionary efforts of all kinds, and
therefore to be sustained just as any
missionary effort is sustained.
1t would be as reasonable to ex-
pect the South Sea Islander to come
with cash in his hands to pay the
missionary who is to turn him to-
ward ways of right thinking and
right doing as to expect the COM
munities that show an awakening
toward civic righteousness to thus
pay for the propaganda to uplift.
| Nevertheless, they do it more than
occasionally, and this is only another
showing of the strength of the de-
sire and of necessity for conserving
the forces for civic uplift toward
meeting the present opportunities
before undertaking to foster new ap-
plications or to create new needs.
/ have no hesitation in saying that
as l look at it the civic problem from
the improvement point of view pre-
sents features of great encourage
ment. The whole public is awake
to the need of improvement. 1t is
manifested in little and in large
| ways. A woman in little southern
town will write about cleaning up
her own backyard; a town official of
a northern city will ask how to take
care of garbage, and numberless
other applications for information
and for aid come from all parts Of
the country. The encouragement is
not so much in the amount of good
work being done as 1t Is in the an
xiety of the people to be worked with
and to be directed.
There is, however, the further en-
couragement of much actual accom-.
plishment. Cities and towns all over
the country are doing better, are
cleaning up; are making their
streets, and houses, and parks and

will not be robbed and where one of
her plants is cut off by the reaper
she will make desperate effort to
bring a second crop for seed and her
species are to be perpetuated at all
hazards. So while rake the harvest
off the dry stubble and the dust
rises from the dry clods, another
crop of the tender green young
shoots are coming on, and some of
them are already heading for the
next years volunteer crop.
Neighbor Truelove was in almost
as bad fix as /. with respect TO
harvesting a field of wheat and oats
across the road from mine. 1t stood
until dead ripe and then he had to
get in and do something. He bor-
rowed an old-fashioned cradle from
an old-fashioned neighbor and
swinging it right Justify for a man
of his age, in few days had the
field down. Underneath his fine
crop of grain came a grand stand of
red clover. so he left the stubble
about a foot high to shelter the
young clover, really showing that he
was a far-sighted farmer. He laid off
a straight winrow of grain and then
with rake in hand proceeded to bind
| it up after the old style. Truelove
did good job and will have nearly
a hundred bushels of grain off his
two acres and clover crop besides.
1t was real pleasure to stand and
lean over the fence and see my
neighbor work, and yet it was an
honester pleasure than working my
neighbor. He has his grain all
bound up and shocked and the green
oak and fir trees on all the elevations
form beautiful background to the
golden sheen of the stubble fields,
while in the air there is glimmering
the mist of autumn like a golden
halo over the finished work of nature
Alas, there be many who cannot see
these beauties of summer.
Avast, ye dwellers in the polluted
cities. Get behind me, Satan, with
they golden crown beckoning me to
become a plutocrat and abide in the
Icounting-rooms of wealth. / would
rather set my lipe to that remijohn
of cooling liquid in the corner of the
bayfield,, or get a long and satisfac-
tory swig of buttermilk fresh from
the stone churn, handed to me by a
plump woman with sleeves rolled up
and face red with honest thought
homely domestic duty well-perform-
ed, than quaff apolinaris or sip high
balls paid for with tainted coin
among the so-called great men of the
earth. To love ones neighbors, to
live in amity and concord with all
about one, to have no designs of a
selfish nature at any living human
being, to love them all and wish them
well and be ready at all times to give
them life along the road of life If
it be for their good and the good of
the community, and then go your
own way along the highest concep-
tion of your own development, re-
| lligiously keeping out of everybody s
way, is surely heaven on earth. Then
to lie down in the shade of tree and
steal a nap when nobody is watching
and know that you are not going to
be docked on the payroll, is a little
chunk of satisfaction that cannot be
expressed in the impoverished con-
dition of the English language, and
as far as estimating its value in cold
cash, all the money in Wall Street
can't purchase it for those who are
not prepared for 1t.

TUCSON entertained
ARIZONA SHRINERS

After three days of the most success
full meetings ever held by the Shriners,
the meetings closed at Tucson last Fri
day with banquet at the Santa Rita
hotel. The afternoon was taken up
with receptions to the officers of the
order and distinguished members. This
reception was given by the Daughters
of Is;s and their friends. Five hundred
plates were laid at the banquet.
After the conclusion of the banquet
all retired to the Elks' hall, where q
reception was rendered by the Elks to
the Shriners and Daughters of Isis and
their friends. Chairs were cleared
away and the evening was spent in
dan ling. Most of the visitors will
leave for their homes tomorrow.
That the Shriners have been enter
tanned highly while visiting in Tucson
they have no hesitancy to say. Busi-
ness men, assisted by the Commercial
Club, had prepared an elegant program
for the visitors and extended to them
whole-souled hospitality. The city has
been a mass Of flags and streamers
during the convention, and Tucson was
beautiful to a degree she has never
known before.

SCARCITY OF ALUMINIUM
PREVENTS COMPETITION

There has been considerable talk OF
aluminium being used extensively as a
substitute for copper on account of the
high price of copper. But there seems
little danger from this, if for no other
reason than that aluminium is even
scarce than copper and the price is
from 35 cents per pound for ingots to
40 cents per pound for drawn wire.
While aluminium is at its highest point
of production the manufacturers are
far behind in their orders, with no i'm
mediate prospect of getting even. The
Pittsburg Reduction company, the
largest manufacturer of aluminium in
the world, is sold year ahead for its
wire products. Ingot aluminium could
not be obtained in less than 80 days,
while sheet aluminium is not deliverable
under six months.

industry by the Shannon company is
another long stride by the management
towards the permanent success of the
company. 1t is also a matter of some

creased payroll for the company. The
Shannon can now be considered as q
full-fedged mining company, as it now
manufactures its output and is on q
solid and paying basis.

A SPLENDID HOTEL
FOR CITY OF DOUGLAS

The Douglas Dispatch says that funds
had been subscribed for the erection of
hotel building in the business center
Of Douglas that will compare favorably
with any hostelry in the southwest.
and will be probably the finest and
best equipped in the territory. Ar
rangemckts were begun some time last
December toward this end and at q
meeting of local and out-of- town capi-
talists in this city Tuesday evening,
prospective stockholders in the venture
guaranteed sufficient amount of mon.
ey to insure the fulfllment of the
plans.
The new hotel building will cost in
the neighborEood, when completed, Of
$50, 900, and will be placed under the
supervision of one of the best hotel
men in the country. 1t will be four
stories high and pressed brick will be
used exclusively in the construction of
it. The exterior style Of the structure
has not finally been agreed upon, but
Architect Holden has been instructed
to draw plans and specifications along
the lines laid down by the promoters.
1t is expected that active work may
begin within thirty or forty days. The
site which has been selected is at the
southwest corner Of G avenue and
Eleventh street, the lots adjoining the
Copper Queen store on the north.

THE GlLA VALLEY
Gist Of the News from the Guardian
journal and Bulletin


The Smithville and Montezuma canal
companies have given notice of appeal
to the supreme court of Arizona from
the decision or Judge Doan in the
water cases.
Prof. Forbes, of the University of
Arizona, in his lecture delivered at Sol
omonville conveyed the impression that
damage to crops from Clifton tailings
dumped into the river was not serious,
but that injury resulted from fine silt
accumulating upon the soil surface
where cultivation is neglected or i'm
practicable-as in the case of alfalfa
fields-the silt forming an impervious
blanket which kills vegetation.
More than 600 tons of alfalfa hay
was shipped from Solomonville in ten
days.
The Stafford city council has assessed
tax of $40 per year on boarding
houses, and reduced the gambling
licenses from $50 per month to $40.
The death of Mrs. Maud Platt Wish
occurred in Stafford February 21. The
funeral occurred from the church in
Thatcher, last Sunday afternoon. Mrs.
Wish was popular lady and her death
is greatly regretted in the valley.
Miss Katherine Tuttle, who has
served as postmistress in Stafford for
the past eight years, has gone to
Los Angeles, where she will make her
home in the future.
Thomas H. Morrow was arrested
Monday on complaint sworn to by M.
E. Brenner, charging him with crimi-
nal relations with his step-daughter,
Sadie Ross. He was given prelimi-
nary hearing before Justice Fonda and
bound over to await the action of the
grand jury under bond of $1,000, in
default of which he has been placed in
Jail at Solomonville. The girl is about
fifteen years old and sweals positively
to Morrow's guilt.
o. W. Banta. of Stafford, has discov-
cred valuable marble at the base of
Graham mountains, not far from the
line of the G. V. G. & N. railroad, and
accessible by wagon. Mr.. Banta

in slabs of any size desired and, with a
little development, marble could be
taken out to supply the whole terri
tory. l. N. Robinson and son Newt.

out the fact that the city has one
saloon to every 243 inhabitants, and

the proportion more nearly equal by

and using the extra money thus
obtained to pay for more policemen
