have gagged in a rough way the pro-
ductive life of the Appalachian field.
Not q Pleasing Prospect,

ductive life of the Appalachian field.
Not a Pleasing Prospect.
The prospect is not a pleasing one
to contemplate. That celebrated
word picture of Lord Macaulay in
which he describes future traveller
as standing on a broken arch of Lon
don bridge. In the midst of a vast SOL
ftude, sketching the ruins of St.
Pauls. may find its substantial coun-
terpart much nearer home than we
could wish. True the natural wealth
OF our beloved union is so great and
varied; our riches of soil, of forest,
and stream are so vast il preserved,
and their boundIess possibilities thor
oughly utilized, that We would prob
ably have the advantage of all other
nations in the struggle for existence
even after our fuel resources have
been exhausted, but this is no reason
why we should not do everything pos
sible to conserve them so that we
may retain to a remote future the
great benefits which their possession
assures.
states, the questions involved in this
discussion are those in which you and
your constituents are most vitality in
tereSted. Our patriotic president, ever
watchful of the nations welfare, and
of the peoples interests. ever alert to
6QdIQ against QduSSIS lIOI1 WllAOut,
or the more insidious foes that would
betray the peoples liberties from
within, has summoned you to a con-
ference more important to the future
Of our great republic than any coun-
ell that has ever before met in the
history Of our country. Our honored
president would protect this nation
not alone from perils on the ocean.
but from the graver ones On land.
Appeals to States.
Whatever is possible in the shape
OF legislation for the protection OF our
fuel resources should be done by the
individual states which you represent.
Twenty-Five Of the 46 states of the
union produce coal and "a of these
produce more than a million tons an
nually, while practically the same
number produce vast quantities Of
both petroleum and natural gas.
But as you love your states and
country I adjure you to take up this
fight for the conservation of our fuel
resources with the determination new
er to surrender until the forces Of
greed and avarice which are so rap
idly sapping the very foundations Of
our country's greatness, capitulate,
and agree to end the wild riot of de-
struction that has characterized the
past

Church Can Help is1 War
 Against Consumption

Whatever relieves suffering belongs to Christianity The terrible ravages of consumption can be checked through concerted action People should realize the necessity for sup porting the societies engaged in the humane warflre against the dread scourge, and to awaken them to this need there is no more feasible way than for the churches to direct their generous enthusiasm toward the hu- -mane work.
 Consumption is a most insidious dis ease. often securing a firm hold before the victim is at all conscious of dan ger. No precaution to guard against the deadly germ should he overlooked.
 Neglect of an ordinary cough has been known to result-in consumption. To break up a cold quickly and cure any cough that is curable. there is nothing SO effective as the mixture of two ounces of glycerine with eight ounces of whisky and a half ounce Virgin oil of Pine Use in teaspoon ful doses every four hours. Five ounces of tincture Cinchona compound can be used instead of whisky with the same effect
Arizona republican., 1908-02-19

The ingredients are inexpensive and can be purchased without trouble at any good drug store. To avoid substi- tuition of some inferior pine product for the Virgin oil of Pine. it is better to purchase each separately and mix them at home
 The genuine Virgin Oil of Pine is put up for dispensing. only in ls ounce vials. each vial securely sealed in a round wooden case with an en- graved wrapper showing plainly the name-Virgin Oil of Pine compound pure. guaranteed under the Food and Drugs Act of June 90. 1906. Serial No. 451. prepared only by Leach Chemical Co.,. Cincinnati, Ohio Be sure to get the genuine.a the oil sold in bulk and cheap limitations put out to resemble Virgin oil of Pine in name and style of package are ineffective. being large ly composed of a distillation of pine needles. or leaves, instead of from the pine tree proper.
 These pine needle oils are not in tended for internal use. and when taken internally usually cause nau- sea. Their use is mainly confined to the manufacture of soap and similar purposes.

for advertising the valley. The com miItee appointed for that purpose last fall did some good work. securing just about enough to assure the proper maintainence of the board for the coming year if all who subscribe pay up as they should. But the board de- sires now nice advertising fund and feels that if it can secure iU it can be expended to great advantage at this time special committee for this work was appointed, a committee that 1t is expected can get out and rustic the amount needed in a very short time. Several of the merchants and others present believed il could be done very easily if q proper effort was put forth. This committee is compos- ed of Dwight B. Heard. Ezra w. Thay- CT. $. J. Tribolet, C. w. Mckee and Aaron Goldberg.
 Another project that may mean d great deal 10 the valley was presented by Messrs. W. P. Whitney and 4. T.. EgIey. They propose to canvass the farming districts and secure member ships to the board of trade at the reg ular price, Sl0 per year in advance. tilFA Ap ltAtANt llllN Afl itl4l AplllAlAhs- sion on this basis: fifteen per cent ta be paid at the time of enrolment, r 1-2 per cent sixty or ninety days af- ter they leave Phoenix. All this i'm plies something of a correlative pro ject. They propose to secure while cauvassing. photographs Of ranches and accurate data to use In the east Then they propose 10 go east as mis- sionaries for the valley and send out new settlers. taking along board liter ature, set of the panoramic pictures and whatever else they can get for de- sirable advertising.
 They desire 10 utilize whatever com missions they can get on board mem berships to help pay expenses and will rely for profits on a percentage on each sale made by a Phoenix real es- tate agent to one of their new colon ists who shall be identified by crede,.- tials with which they will supply him when he starts west. The directors Of the board believing it was a project that will cost them no money and may be benefit to all concerned, decided to accept the proposition and left the matter with J. Fl. McClintock and c. w. Cowgirl to close up with the gentle men named.

NEW PR0JECIS OF
 THE BOARD OF TRADE
Three Honorary Memberships For Farmers-New Campaign For Money and New Advertising Plan.

At the meeting of the board of trade yesterday two or three matters of con- siderable importance Were discussed and a lot of minor matters attended to. One thing done is of special inter est to The Republican and to the far mers of the valley who propose to en- ter The Republicans Farmers contest. The proposed contest was brought be- fore the board and the directors de- Cided that it was a good thing and ought to be pushed along as the result Of a good contest will be gathering of valuable data that may later be used in advertising and will be a great help to the work of the board. The directors therefore made a supple mental offer to the farmers of three honorary membership for one year, in the board of trade, to be given to the three farmers securing the silver prizes offered by The Republican. That equals twelve dollars each in money if the farmer desires member ship, and every enterprising farmer should.
 The matter of most general impOr- tance. acted upon was a reviving of the campaign for the raising of money
