INTEREST I'M THE CONTEST.

INTEREST TN THE CONTEST.
 Even if the Mesa contestants do not stand at the head of the list against the others in all the other districts, they are far ahead of some of the Tempe competitors and others and it is a safe bet that when returns are made at our office again, they will still out rank our neighbors. We are proud Of our hustlers over here and interest is awakening on all sides in regard to their standing, and many who have not already assisted our boy or girl, will undoubtedly do so by a liberal paid in advance subscription to The Arizona Republican, the live, up-to- date morning paper with all the news.

The Sale of Stoves a Big Item in the
 Hardware Business.

The last few days here have been the coldest that this side of the river has experienced in a long time and is a little unexpected, so much so that few were prepared for it and either had no winter stoves or at least did not have them in place. Sunday, of course the hardware stores were closed, but yes terday they did a thriving business and sold stoves of all kinds right and left all day.
 Yesterday morning at day light there was a good frost on the ground and the alfalfa was badly nipped. One thermometer recorded but four degrees above freezing. So far as could be learned no damage was done crops unless it might be to what little corn there is here.

THE KANSAS REUNION.

The annual Kansas reunion and pie nic will be held one week from Satur- day that date being the first Saturday in November. on which day the reun- ion has been held for years past. Some have been under the impression that the reunion has been given up this year, but for their benefit it may be said that such is not at all the case; rather, it is planned to make the re- union a bigger and better one than ever before. It will be held on the public school grounds as usual.

Eva Young has already shown her ability when it comes to vote getting and good results are ex- pected from Joe LeBarron as he is sit uated in a manner which enables him to see many people who will boost him along Our Mesa people are certainly going to stand by their contestants and will lend them every aid to win one of The Republicans valuable prizes by giving their subscriptions and saving their coupons.

POST OFFICE INSPECTOR HERE.

Inspector Love of the Post Office de- partment was here yesterday making an inspection of the Tempe office which he found in it's usual good shape. He finished up his work in the fore noon in time to take the noon train east, his first stop being made at Kel- win. It is not thought that his visit here had any special significance at tached to it so far as the appointment of another postmaster is concerned.

great earthquake at San Francisco

of some of the older citizens OF

history almost forgotten.
Commencing ut Cotton Town,
six miles west of Gallatin, and ex-
tending to McMinnville through
the counties of Sumner, Wilson,
DeKalb and Warren, can he plain
ly seen the old marks of an earth
quake. The assures are plainly
discernible, and numerous sink
holes abound along the route.

Of Gallatin's leading citizens and
enterprising business men, who
conducted large foundry here,
who has long since passed to his
reward, organized company
about forty years ago to mine for
lead at Coles Ferry, seven miles
south of Gallatin where the assure
crosses the Cumberland River. A
shaft was sunk to a depth of sixty
feet. There was every evidence
of rich mineral deposits, but MIR.
Nicholson could not arouse suffi-
cient interest in the project and
the mine was abandoned. Mr..
Nicholson at that time spoke of
the volcanic origin of the soil, and
pointed out the surface indications,
but all to no purpose.
All along the line of this assure
wild peas grow n abundance,
which is a natural top surface in
dication, SO it is said, of galena.
A branch of this assure extends
from Coles Ferry to Rocky Creek,
in Trousdale County, and in many
places along the line great caves
are found.
1t is related by some of the older
inhabitants that many years ago
Capt. Jack Maddin, known at that
time all over the State as great
fox hunter, while out one night
ran fox into one of these caves,
and procuring q light, began q

THE NAKED TRUTH AS
TO SAN FRANCISCO

! Physically and morally San Fran
cisco was built on mud.
Much of the lower Market street
was on made ground-old cans,
refuse, muck lifted from the har-
Dor and dumped over behind piles.
The city hall was in what was once
swamps and later sand lots. Fine
roadways had taken the place of
creeks or estuaries of the swamps
and tide fats. The quaking earth
rocked and toppled buildings
erected on sponge.
Not owning her own water
works, the city burned when the
emergency came Under which she
must depend upon the equipment
and structural conscientiousness of
corporations.
Leaving the theologians to quar-
rel over the proposition that this
catastrophe was vengeful vista
ton of divine wrath, it is fact
that no modern city better de.
served the fate of Gomorrah than
beautiful San Francisco.
She was notorious for her har-
boring and laxity toward the social
evil-white, black, yellow and
brown.
She had more murders per 1000
than any other city in the nation.
Sheswas -the only big city wherein
a man could safely kill another in
the prize ring, and there had been
four such killings.
She was the only city where lot |
terry tickets were peddled from |
house to house, Office to Office.
She had one saloon for every $50

of the three grand divisions of the
State. 1t is also the intention tC
offer d set of prizes for corn judg
ing, to be competed for by the
farmers of the State.
Trucking products will also be
taken care of as far as possible at
this season of the year.
Special attention will be given
to live stock exhibits. As a pro
ducer of horse. mule and jack
stock, Tennessee is already in the
front ranks. The prizes in this
department will b Q sufficiently
large to attract not only the home
but the foreign exhibitor as well.
Tennessee has never realized its
possibilities as producer of beef
cattle. In this department the
management expects to secure for
exhibition the best herds in the
country. The South is a new and
promising market for this class of
stock, and in order that our people
may become better acquainted
with the merits of the best breeds
of beef cattle, a special set of
prizes will be offered for judging
beef cattle to be competed for by
the farmers of the State.
The interests of the breeder of
dairy cattle will in no way be over
looked. 1t is the purpose of the
Tennessee State Fair Association
to have a dairy building, where
the entire workings of modern
dairy may be seen in operation.
Tennessee and the South is Just |
waking up to the great Importance
of the pedigreed hog industry. |
The entire South is beginning to
purchase pedigreed hogs, and the
breeders of the North and West, AS
we'll as Tennessee, will find it to
their advantage to exhibit in this
department.
The premiums offered for pure
bred poultry will be in keeping
with the prizes in the other de- /
partments. /
