7. w. HOGAN SPEAKS
TO THE TILDEN CLUB

John w. Hogan, Edward NJ. Sullivan
and Representative Thomas p. Haven
were the speakers at the rally In Column
bia hall, Putnam street, Tenth ward. Mr..
Hogan discussed a wide range or topics.
the keynote OF his talk being the necessity
OF sending the sort OF men to the legisl1-
ture to bring about the enactment or tho
measures which will give the city better
representation In proportion to the amount
OF tax her 10000 citizens pay into the
state treasury.
Last year" he said. I'VE were but pre-
pairing the ground for the seed The po-
litical soil OF the state was like one OF
those barren and rocky fields out In Scit-
uate. IL was rank and overgrown from
wears OF neglect. There was need OF much
| labor TO prepare IL for the seed time. ana
we gave the labor: now feel certain that
seed time has come. and that this year
we will plant the seed
A need OF proper representation was
sadly evident. he said. when the city
OF Providence had but IL representatives
I'm the house and one I'm the senate at the
same time she paid into the treasury OF
the state 60 per cent of the entire state
tax. That proper representation, he said.
was the chief aim OF the Democrats. after
which they were fighting to secure the
aboIishment OF the property qualification
and a consequent doing away wfh the evil
OF the board Of canvasserS alb registra-
non, IN whose place might se substituted
an election commissioner for each ward.
Mr.. Hogan also paid his respects to the
element In the Democratic party which he
said had betrayed and was betraying the
party and who had. when entrusted with
the reins OF leadership, turned those reins
over TO the Republicans. Democrats who
could not and did not think for themselves
but who went down TO newspaper Of
fce TO set their orders for the work OF
trying to wreck the Democratic party"

irapidly.
4 One hundred cars are being ship
ped out of Phoenix" said Mr.. Crump
yesterday. we got the first oranges
into New York City by Thanksgiving,
and will keep on shipping until after
Christmas. The first boxes to reach
New York brought eight dollars at
wholesale and the Phoenix orange is
much more in demand and always
brings a better price in the east than
/ the California and Florida varieties.
Half boxes sell as high as $4l5. The
oranges ripen earlier than the Califor-
MIA oranges. are seedless. are sweeter
! and have better color. In fact, they
are without a peer in the world.
There is an immense acreage in
oranges in the Salt River valley now
but with the completion of the Roose
Welt reclamation project il will become
vastly greater. The groves at present
average between ten and forty acres
apiece. Lemons and tangerines are
also raised in quantity. The carload is
selling well in Albuquerque. and l be-
lieve after the oranges have once
been introduced there will be a big
demand for them here
TIE the Albuquerque Mr.. Crump said
regarding the orange business here:
The growers around Phoenix re-
alize from S15O.O TO 100000 from
the orange crop this year. believe"
continued Mr.. Crump. Between fifty
and sixty cars have been shipped and
more than a hundred carloads will
be shipped before the season is over.
The bulk of the crop goes to New
York and Boston because il COM
mands a higher price there. Early in
the season Phoenix oranges netted
IS box in New York and now they
are selling as high as s7.75. We get
our oranges on the market before
Thanksgiving.
When the Roosevelt dam is COM
pleted the Salt River valley will bios
som out as a great orange growing
and fruit raising country. Growers
can get their oranges on the market
sooner than the California growers
and Arizona oranges command a
much higher price"

The patrons of district %, Chum-
stick valley, may we'll feel proud of the
work being accomplished by the pupils
and teachers. We find in Mrs. Ida
J. Maher a teacher of exceptional
ability. If the scholars do not make
the progress in their school work that
they should, it will not be on account
of lack of enthusiasm or that their
teacher has not given them her best
efforts. The writer had the pleasure
of being one OF the many friends OF the
school that enjoyed an excellent
Thanksgiving program by the school.
The boys and girls did nobly, and in
my estimation they all have a great
future and that some day they will
make their mark in the world. The
program included songs, Rotations,
dialogues, select readings and remarks
by the patrons. The school room was
decorated tastefully for the occasion.
There was one little incident that
should not have happened, but was no
fault of the school or teacher. Thru
the kindness of one good old gentle
man we had to be reminded Of some
thing our fathers tried to learn US when
we were boys, never mingle business
with pleasure. Every one went home
feeling well repaid for the visit and the
many lessons taught US by the little
ones. A Friend of the School.
