POLITICAL NOTICES

To the voters of the 57th Legis-
lative District.
In order that may be re nominal
ed as your Representative in the next
legislature, Il solicit your active sup
port and, at the September primary
election, your votes.
It is quite likely that the next ses-
sion will be more important than any
session held during the last twenty
years. ""@
Among other weighty ma tiers, leg
islative valuation of the railroad pro-
perties of Minnesota, to accomplish
which fifty thousand dollars were APP
propriated by the last legisla ture to
defray the expense necessarily con-
nected with the work of gathering
the information needed for intelligent
legislative action, will be one of the
leading subjects, if not the leading
subject, for legislative consideration.
How much shall be appropriated,
and what administrative plan shall be
adopted, for the construction of the
new prison plant at Saltwater, and
whether it shall be large enough to
contain the present binding Irvine
manufacturing plant, considerably
enlarged, and the harvester factory
in which, of course, you are deeply
interested, in addition to all Of the APP
pointments and requirements of the
prison proper, built adequate for all
the future needs of the state, and in
conformity with the scientific rules
and regulations relative to prisons
which are approved by the ablest
penologists of the present day and
age, among whom the present warden
of our prison is a leader whom others
follow, abandoning to other uses the
old and out-of- date prison, will be
another leading subject for legislative
action.
can not, this year, take the time
away from home to make a personal
canvas of the district to learn your
wishes; for, in order to be able to SO
arrange my own personal affairs as
to enable me to serve you at st. Paul
next winter, it will be actually nee
essary that I meanwhile, remaining
at home for the purpose, give my at
tention to my own affairs; and yet
will hold myself ready to come to any
point or place in the district to at
tend any meeting held for the purpose
where I am desired to be to explain |
Or discuss either what is above re-
Ferred to or any act of the last legis-
allure in which I had any part.
I want the support, and the vote at
,he September primary election, of
avery elector who believes that in the
asst legislative session, served the
people to the best of my ability.
I also desire to thank you for the
oval and generous support and votes
.iven me in 1906; and also to add
hat it will be pleasure to me to
rear from you by letter, or postal
ard or in person, telling me of the
eminent of your several localities,
md offering your own suggestions as
o the work of the last, or of the next
legislative session.

It practically insures the completion at a rapid rate of the short line between this city and the capital. which will be but few kilo- meters longer than t.le road between Mexico City and Vera Cruz. and with it's much better construction and the omission of the heavy grades which characterize the Mexican railway to Vera Cruz, will bring Tampico closer in time to the City of Mexico than Very Cruz is now When it is fin ished. Tampico with it's superb har- bor will become what it is destined to be. the greatest part of the republic. with steamers touching here daily from every country in the world. and developing the port with the country. after the manner of its manifest des- tiny.

 Following is a comparison of the orange growing industry of Mexico with that of California:
 In Mexico it is not necessary to irri- gate. Wages are from 37lac to 621sc. U. s. money, per day. No charges for irrigation. It costs 31c duty and roc freight per box. a total of S1.01 from Tampico to New York. Trees mature much earlier than in California and fruit longer. especially navals. and have a sweeter tropical flavor.
 In California irrigation is required seven months of the year. Average cost of irrigation about $50 per acre per year. Wages from s2.50 to $500 per day. Freight from California is $I29. w. H. GREENE.

Does your back ache? Do you get up lame in the morning? Do you feel dull and tired? Does it hurt you to bend over. to lift anything, to get up from a chair? Do you have sudden "catches." or stitches of pain in the back? Does a dull. throbbing ache settle in the small of your back and bother you day and night? Do you sometimes feel that you simply can not straighten up?
 If you do have backache, be careful not to make the very common mistake of treating it as a muscular trouble. Do not rub the sore place with lini- meni, nor put on plasters, for the seat of the trouble is inside-in the kid neys. which lie just beneath the small of the back, on either side of the spine.

THE RAILROAD MERGER
 IN SOUTHERN REPUBLIC
The Mexican Government Takes Over
 tie Mexican Central.

Tampico Mexico March 17.-(Spe- cial Correspondence of The Republi- can. Tropical Mexico" of March 15 contains the following regarding gov ernment ownership of railroads:
 The merger of the Mexican Central with the National Lines of Mexico un- der big $500. .OOO. 900 holding company has gone through at last. The papers were signed last Saturday in Mexico and the transfer of the stock of the Mexican. Central has been made to the Mexican government. This finishes one of the greatest financial operations in the history of Mexico, and places the Mexican government in a position to float the great company of which it will hold the controlling interest. By
 it's provisions the largest railway sys
 tenn of the republic with mileage of 194 miles becomes part of the gov ernment system. which thus assumes the proportions of 6,515 miles of road in operation and about 1000 miles un- der construction. The capital stock of the company will be s23O, 100000 gold. and its bond issue will be $417.- OOO, 900, also in gold. This will be an increase in capital stock over the total capital of all the old systems of S7O.- 093.250 gold. and of bonded indebted ness of s204, 4,9S5,SS7 gold. The increas- ed bond issue and capital will be used in the improvement of the roads and the completion of the instruction now under way. and also in the pushing of other proposed branches. Under it's provisions the railroads of Mexico will become, within q few years, models of the world in efficiency and perfec- ton of roadbed and rolling stock. and will be pushed to the very corners of the republic into sections where roads will open up the country. which pri- vate companies did not care to invest money in, but which will ultimately become great paying propositions

The Jannoyitch variety Of Egyptian cotton sells for the highest prices. The yield of this variety nas been much below the best varieties of upland cot ton in Arizona thus far The Mita feefy variety which yielded on a sixth of an acre plat test this year nearly as much lint as the best varieties of upland cotton usually sells at about l-2 cents lower than Jannovitch. where imported. but samples of this variety grown at Yuma this year have been pronounced by expert cotton buyers as fully equal to the imported Jannoyitch.
 There has rot been enough work done ret in Arizona to determine whether any variety of cotton can be grown with commercial success. and almost nothing has been done to de- terinine in an experimental way which varieties wi!l be most successful and in ~iew oc these facts. I believe that men who have already expended near ly 5300 for seed and implements and who have thoroughly fumigated their seed. shOrld he encouraged to con- thine the experiment with upland cot ton, begun noon their own volitiOn, through the present season and any effort to prevent the planting Of one kind o. seed instead Of another for the present season. at least. are radi cally wrong and may prevent a fair commercial test that will determine the best procedure for the future.

 To the Editor of The Republican: Sir-I have just returned from a trip among the prospective cotton grow CTS at Arlington and your readers may he Interested in the following state nents: There will be about 1S0 acres of upland cotton of the varieties Rog- CTS Big Boil and Rowden planted this spring at Arlington. besides about 40 acres of Egyptian cotton from seed grown b. the [. S. Dept of Agricul- ture. h addition 10 this. a request has been received for enough Egyptian cotton seed to plant about 40 acres about ten miles west of Phoenix. The upland cotton seed was obtained from west Texas in a locality said to be free from boil weevil but nevertheless the most careful precautions are being taken to prevent any importation of stray beetles and all seed is being thoroughly fumigated The soil is certainly excellent cotton land and if labor conditions and marketing facil- ities ara found favorable the cotton industry in this locality may be sue cessfully established It is my opin- ion that eventually this section of the country will be identified with the growing of Egyptian cotton if the in dustry can be successfully established, but TO possible harm can come from making a fair test Of both American upland and Egyptian varieties if prop CT precautions are taken against the boil weevil In the American markets. Sea Island cotton ranks first. upland long staple second, Egyptian third. and upland short staple fourth.

 The city has five or six good stores. two lumber yards. SS5, 000 court house. good school building and other proper ties. There is an abundance of inter- esting local color with it's adobe build inss. some of them passing into dsuse and will be graudally supplanted by nice brick structures as the city pro- gresses.
