Dubuque liquor men are find
ing themselves up against the
real thing They appear to be
making a loosing fight in the con-
flict with Archbishop Keane, his
co-workers of the Catholic faith
and his able supporters of other
denominations. A few months ago
saloons at Dubuque were
run without any regard for the
provisions Of the mulct law. No
attention was paid to Sunday
closing, to the hour for closing at
night, TO the prohibition Of screens
or the serving of lunches in saloons.
Keane found condition of affairs
which could not be tolerated,
that ought not be tolerated in a
law-abiding state. He began an
agitation in favor Of law enforce
ment. lie created public sentiment
He found active and hearty
supporters in such men as Rev.
George L. Cady. When the re-
formers started out to reform Du-
buque, they had at once the active
support of large part OF the
state. The majority of Iowa people
cannot see why a law THAT is
good enough for Cedar Rapids
and for nine-tenths of Iowa should
not be obeyed in Dubuque. And
yet a large part of the people of
Iowa would have been pretty we'll
satisfied if, as starter, the mulct
laws were partially enforced in
the state of Dubuque. Even Du-
buque reformers might have been
satisfied with partial enforce
ment. But some Of the liquor men
were inclined to resist, and now
Archbishop Keane is leading the
fight in dead earnest for the proper
enforcement of the law, the same
kind Of enforcement that applies
to Cedar Rapids. And he will
win. AT least he ought to win.
Cedar Rapids Liquor dealers SO
far as is generally known,
live up to the provisions
of the law. Dubuque liquor men
should do the same thing. Cedar

OF these people took some of the
nice land found here, and in all
about $500 acres were taken.
These men were brought in
through the efforts of the Min.

assured fact this land will soon
all be gone and we feel that
great credit must be given the
ABOVE company for the solid
work done, We wish TO say
most Of the land taken by these
men has been homestead claims.
This insures people in the valley

The steamer Larchmont, carry
ing many passengers, bound from
Boston to New York, sank of
the northwest side of Block Is
land early today after a collision
with the schooner Harry Know
Teton. 1t is estimated that in the
neighborhood of 200 people lost
their lives,a great many of whom
perished from the intense cold
after getting in the life boats, the
temperature having been below
zero. One vessel sank below the
waves and the other made land

BY middle Of March there will
be something doing at Hondale.
By that time three mercantile
houses will be unier course of
construction in what will doubt
less soon be a sprightly little town.
Several residences will also soon
be shooting skyward. In addi-
ton to the growth of the town
the farming country contiguous
to Hondale will soon be dotted
with pretty residences with green
growing fields of alfalfa, beau
tiful vineyards of California
grapes, fine orchards and the
numerous other crops to which
this country is so admirably
adapted.
The E. P. & S. w. Ry., on
which the new town is located,

town and Uncle Sam will be
asked to establish a postofice

There is also some talk of put
ting in a natatorium in the new
town and making it a pleasure
resort. The promoters of the
town would do we'll to see that
the road between their town and
Deming is put in first-class
shape.
Deming is pleased to see the new
town established, as she realizes
it will be but one more feather
in her cap toward a greater

and always will be The hub of
the universe, as it were, in this

THE NEED OF A HIGH SCHOOL.
While it May Not come This Year, it
 is Almost Certain to, Next.

The question of instituting a Union High School in Tempe has been advo- Catcd from time to time of late and the more the matter is considered. the more necessary does it appear that such a school must eventually be started here Prof. Alexander of Tucson. who will have charge of the Public School next year. is at present spending some time here arranging school matters in anticipation of the opening in September. and at the same time talking up the matter of the High School. IL has been decided to add another grade to the Public School course this year. a ninth grade. which, when the High School Is started, will make the first grade or year of its work. IL is proposed to devote much of the work of this higher grade tO com mercial and business training. the idea being that many young men and wo- men who may never have the oppor- unity to get higher. will. after having completed the work of this grade. be farily well equipped with an ordinary business education. MT. Alexander will have charge of the work in the ninth grade and an additional teacher "il be employed to take some one of rhe other Trades of the school

The first car of cantaloupes ever shipped out of Tempe went out last night It was shipped by the Tempe Melon Growers Association and is un- der the care of the H. Woods commis- sion firm of Chicago. The growing of cantaloupes in Tempe is as yet an in fant industry. but it gives promise of in few years being one of the lead ing ones. The south side production of cantaloupes in carload lots has heretofore been confined to Mesa, but it will not he so any longer. It is an ticipated that another car will be shipped today and there will probab- + be car a day now for some time 10 come.

COMMERCIAL GROWTH
 OF A SCORE OF YEARS

It is almost impossible to realize how much has been accomplished in Phoenix in a commercial way within a few years. It can only be realized by comparisons and comparisons are not frequently made. Below is Brad streets description of the business life of Phoenix in 1887. Those mer- chants of today who have copies of Bradstreet for the current year may easily see how surprisingly the town has grown not only in the volume but in the character of its commercial

The matter of the High School will be considered this year and just as soon as possible. it is proposed to call a meeting of all the trustees of the different districts that will be includ- ed in the union. IL is well known fact that after this year. the Normal as well as the University, will not ad- init students who have not completed the equivalent of the tenth grade work. It is therefore very evident that un- less the High School is organized here, after the coming years school Tempe children will be placed in the position of being obliged to either stop going to school. or attend either the Mesa or Phoenix High School or some other institution.

According to Inspector Fear. representing the Woods company. who is supervising the loading here. the car shipped yesterday was the finest he has ever seen. as the re- suit of the first days picking in his fifteen years experience in cantaloupe fields. The car contained fewer pony crates and the average quality of the melons was superior to anything he has ever seen elsewhere as the first shipment of the season.
