been selected. and we feel that il
will have no opposition in the
coming election. The gentlemen
that compose the ticket are upright
and honorable, and we have the
highest respect for them, and
heartily endorse the action of the

Mayor Lewis has been in Office
for six years, while Messrs. C. N.
Frost and A. J. Delahoussaye have
served four years and Mr.. M. L.
Harrison two years, and we feel
they have represented the town of
Franklin, in all matters, as we'll as
any Mayor and Councilmen in the
past have done. AS to the two
new members nominated, Messrs.
j. F. Boudreaux and Marvin
Morris, both of these two GENTLE
men are Franklins' most honorable
and progressive citizens, having
the interests of the town at heart,
we know they will make a record
for themselves surpassed by no

men named for Mayor and
Councilmen by the Mass Meeting
on Wednesday night are as COM
petent and able to run the affairs
OF Franklin as any set of men that
could have been selected.

the great military success of the year.
When school opens next autumn the
number of companies will be increased
to eight or nine, but the regimental
organization of two battalions will still
be retained. The officers of the regi-
ment have formed a stock company
and viii! handle uniforms and military
goods for the cadets through a coop
erative store.
The regular army blue uniform will
be worn next year by the officers for a
dress uniform. but the cadet gray will
be retained another year for all enlisted
men. The third floor of the gymnas-
ium will be fitted up for the military
department, and transformed from a
large attic to an officers club room, a
target range for small arm firing, a
large store room for the cooperative
store, and a living room for the stu
dents who take care of the club room.
1t is expected that when these changes
are made, better work will be done,
and more interest taken; and next year
will find the military department con-
sisitently preparing for a great en-
campment at Seattle.

MESA
LEcruRE ON SNAKE DANCE.

Professor George Wharton James of Pasadena, California, will deliver an interesting talk this evening on the "Moki Snake Dance" at the Methodist church, at o'clock. Arrangements were previously made to have Profes- sor James speak in the rooms of the chamber of commerce, but it was de- cided later that those rooms were in- adequate. hence the Methodist church was decided upon as a more commodi- ous place.
 Professor James has spent many years among the Indians of the south- west, studying their customs, tradi- tions, and mode of living. In this re- search he has found no tribe of the Red Man whose traits and habits are of more universal interest to the stu dent and tourist alike than those of the Moki. The professor annually de- livers addresses of this character at Harvard and many other institutions of learning. He is also quite an author having written works treating of the characteristics of the American Indian, and also on the Grand Canyon.
 No admission fee will be charged at this evenings entertainment, or collec- tion taken.

TEMPE CANAL ENLARGEMENT.
The Work Will Commence Today and Will Be Completed in Less Than
 Two Weeks.

IL is expected that today will see the
 start made toward enlarging the Tenn pc canal from the double bridges to the head of the Hayden ditch, as was
 authorized at the last meeting of the stockholders. For the past ten days
 a large force of men and teams have
 been at work scraping the sand from
 the upper end of the canal. and this
 morning this crew with as many more
 as can he secured will start work
 widening the waterway. In the neigh
 borhood of seventy five men and teams
 will be employed, and the work will
 be pushed to completion as rapidly as
 possible. Work will be started at the
 double bridges. for at that point the
 main canal will branch into the three
 smaller ones, the southern and west
 ern branches and the Havden ditch.
 The main canal will be strengthened out little as it is enlarged, and when
 the work is finished # will be in bet ter shape than ever before. and will have capacity much greater than it has at present It is estimated that the work will require from a week to ten days or possibly less: it is diff cult to tell until everything is in oper- ation and the size of the crew ascer- tained.
 At the double bridges the building of the triple headgate will be started at once. so that by the time the canal is enlarged the gates will be completed and water will again be turned in. It is at such times as this that the value of the pumping plant is felt The av- ,f1,- need of irrigating water just now and the fact that water has been out of the canal for two weeks has worked no inconvenience on him. There are. however. a few who have grain that needs water and these have the priv ilege of using pumped water. The plant was started a couple Of days ago and is now running night and day
 To refer again. though. to the sub ject of canal enlargement and changes that are being made; the proposed change in the Hayden ditch will pos sibly not be made at once There is no urgent need. and it can be done at any time without the loss of water. The ditch from the double bridges to the present canal can be dug while the Hayden water users are being sup piled with water through the original head of the canal. Yesterday P. T. Hurley. owner of the Sachs ranch. and Attorney Armstrong of Phoenix spent part of the day looking over the lay of the land. It is proposed to run the Hayden cutoff along the north side of the NJ & P. track on the Hurley land. IL is understood that MT Hur- ley will offer no opposition to granting a right of way. For the time being no move will be made toward develop ing power by the fall in the new ditch, but that is a matter that will have the serious consideration of the canal com pany at 9 later date.

A party Of Tempe young ladies showed remarkable bravery Saturday by spending the entire day at the Hieroglyphic springs without the pro- lection of a single member of the stronger sex. Not that it was difficult to get young men to go along, for there were any number who would have jumped at the chance;i they were not only uninvited. but were also unwel- come, and were told to stay at home. Contrary to the expectations of the young men, the ladies returned safely and reported a most enjoyable day.
