FRUITS AND
 VEGETABLES Many Counties Represented In Agricultural Display MARICOPA GETS FIRST Yuma is Second In Excellence of Exhibit Oranges and Alfalfa, Pumpkins and Pea nuts and All Other Vege- tables and Fruits.

What Arizona sunshine and soil can do is exemplified in the big agricultural exhibit at the fair. Big as it is, there is still not room enough for all of the exhibits. C.. w. Cowgirl. who has charge of the Maricopa county exhibit, said yester- day that he got only about half as much space apportiOned to his as he really needed for a good showing. That the display of this county is most excellent as it stands is shown by the fact that yesterday it was awarded first prize, while Yavapai got second. Great credit for the dis play is due the chamber of com merce of Mesa and the board of trade of Tempe. who aided material ly in the exhibit. The Maricopa county commissioners are Cowgirl chairman; Spangler of Mesa and Cook of Tempe. F. w Wilson is superintendent of the agricultural exhibits.
 The judges: Fruits, Dr. J. E. Colt; grains, hay. etc, Prof. R. w. Cloth fer; floral display. Prof. J. J. Thorn Der of the University of Arizona, The floral exhibits will be held to- day and prizes awarded. The flow CTS must be in position early in the day and the process of judging will be begun at once. By an oversight this department was left out of the catalog, but valuable premiums will be awarded.
 In the Maricopa exhibit there are sixty-three varieties of fruits and vegetables. While all of the pre- miums have not yet been awarded. as the judges. are still at work on them. some of them are given here:
 Alfalfa hay, A. J. Chandler; al falfa seed, Fred Tate; oranges, first and second, Munger Bros. A fine

The commissioner in charge of the Yuma exhibit is E. l.. Crane. The agricultural display sent by Yavapai county is under the super vision of A. A. Jctlns, county com missioner Yavapai gets thirteen firsts on twenty-seven varieties of vegetables and fruits. These eX- hibits were shipped down from Je rome at considerable expense and Yavapai deserves credit for taking such an interest in the fair. Nearly all of the first premiums were cap tured by O. J. Adams. The fruits and vegetables that won firsts for Mir. Ames are Rome Beauty apples, Newtown Pippin, general collection of vegetables, collection of apples, Cans apple, Black Ben Davis apple, collection of fruits and vegetables, moutnain vegetables, sweet potatoes, cabbage, lettuce, celery, onions, pep pers, pie pumpkin, and second for corn. He also got first for the largest and best collection of fruits and vegetables.
 w G. Wingfield got first for a collection of twelve varieties of ap- ples, and w. A Jordan a first for Jonathan apples, and also a first for the largest collection of apples.
 Graham county's exhibit was some what depleted by the loss of about half of the display on the road down. At any rate, they have not yet ar rived. Luther Green has charge of this exhibit.
 Graham county won eight firsts on apples and three seconds. Some of the other premiums awarded were sorghum, first to c. H. Smithson; ear corn, first to H. D. Hartzler; ear corn, special premium to Austin Ev ans; sweet potatoes. second to H. D. Hartzler; pears. first to Oscar Ole son, who also won four of the firts on apples.
 In the center of the agricultural room is an exhibition of dates from the Tempe date orchard and eXperi mental station farm. Here dates are shown from the sucker in proper size for transplanting to the date already packed in neat boxes for shipment and consumption. A pyra mid in the center is ornamented with huge punches of the fruit in different stages of development This display received one of the special premi ums Right beside the date display is an exhibit of bananas growing on the stalk in two big punches. These were grown at the experimental sta tion at Phoenix by George Acuff. They received a first premium.
 Another first rate exhibit is Cor don Tweed's display of millet, oats, barley corn and other cereals.
 Pinal county comes to the front with apples grown without irrigation. These apples took second prize against apples cultivated under irri- gation.
Arizona republican., 1908-11-14

exhibit of candy glass that that closely resembles the famous Tiffany glassware received a first. This candy ware is manufactured by the Donofrio -Zunkel company. F. w Wilson's exhibit of wool grown at the experimental station received seven first premiums. This was one of the finest displays in the Mari copa county exhibit.
 Another interesting feature of this department is a collection of twenty four bottles of wheat showing each individual stage in the process of changing wheat into flour from the first break in the mills to the refined product. This was put on exhibition by the Valley flour mills.
 A collection of fine photographs, some six feet long, made with a panorama camera, adorn the walls in this department. They represent scenes in the Salt River Valley and were obtained for the fair by MT. Cowgirl. They took first prize.
 George Gam of Phoenix has a col lection of Winter Nellis pears that are hard to beat, any anyone who thinks that apples can not be suc- cessfully raised in the Salt River Valley should take a look at the White Winter Permain apples grown by Hall Bros. They took first and second on Belleflowers.
 An interesting exhibit, especially to out of town visitors, is a group of young orange trees. growing in pots. The citrus fruit exhibit is where Maricopa county is strong and Mir. Cowgirl is endeavoring to get the board of trade to give such an ex- hibition some time in January
 Yuma county comes in first as far as pumpkins are concerned. The prize for the biggest one was award ed to J. E. Garvin. MT. Garvin carried off one of the yellow special premiums for a fine exhibit of Mex ican June corn. This corn produced over fifty bushels to the acre and was uncultivated after the first planting. First prize for cantaloupes went to Joe Mcclellan. and for egg to E. L. Crane; second to K S lONtI. AlldlAd Sttus StCOIlu ID ". A. Lawler. Pecans, second to Capt. F. s. Ingalls,. Peanuts. first to F.

Poland cotton and Egyptian cotton. two firsts to W A Patterson and also another first pre- mium for cotton on the plant
 The particular feature of the Yuma exhibit is the cotton display. Besides the cotton grown in the county. there is an exhibit by the United States of agriculture showing cotton grown from Egyptian seed at the Indian agency at SacatOn Yuma county received two special prizes, one for cotton and one for the whole exhibit.

Abita Lutheran Church.

The Lutheran Church of Abita
Springs, while of recent estab-
lishment, has been built up by
the efforts of Pastor Kaub to a
position of prosperity and infiu-
ence, numbering among it's con-
gregation not only residents in
Abita but many living in the
surrounding country.
In the course Of a sermon de-
livered by him January 26, Pas
tor Kaub made the following
remarks:
What Christ has done and is
still doing for his followers in
administering comfort and con-
ISOLATION to weary and, broken
hearted souls, the Church is, in
obedience to Christ's will, doing
unto the world at large. A great
question which is being extern
sively agitated by Socialists and
others: rs the Church, and are
the clergy, doing anything for
the welfare of the masses, espe-
cially for the toilers, for the
poor, for the weak, inefficient
and helpless and for the fallen
and vicious 2 The accusation
is made repeatedly, on the plat
form and in the press, that they
are not. The Church is charged
with absolute indifference to the
great social and economic prob
lens of the day."
Pastor Kaub denounced these
biased and undiscriminating at
tacks as scurrilously false and
unjust, and maintained that the
Church has done, and is still
doing, more for the improvement
of the ethical and sociological
conditions, for the uplifting and
publication Of society, than all
other agencies combined. He
called attention to the erection
of hospitals for the diseased,
asylums and orphanages; the
relief for suffering in general.
| He said that, all criticisms to the
contrary Notwithstanding, the
| Church has not proven remiss in
this duty imposed upon her; but
the most important work of the
IChurch still continues to be the
preaching of the gospel and the
saving Of souls, and this duty
must not be sidetracked while
endeavoring to supply relief fol-
Iman's physical wants.

HONESTY IN BUSINESS.

The business" which is hurt by
the movement for honesty is the kind
of business which, in the long run, it
pays the country to have hurt. It is
the kind of business which has tended
to make the very name thigh fan
ance" term of scandal to which all
honest American men of business
should join in putting an end. The
special pleaders for business dishon-
esty, in denouncing the present admin
istration for enforcing the law, also
denounce it for endeavoring to
secure sadly needed labor legislation,
such as a far-reaching law making
employers liable for injuries to
their employees. It is meet and
fit that the apologists for corrupt
wealth SHOULD oppose every effort to
relieve weak and helpless people from
crushing misfortune brought upon
them by injury in the business from
which they gain bare livelihood,
The burden should be distributed, It
is hypocritical baseness to speak Of
girl who works in a factory whore
the dangerous machinery is unprotect-
ed as having the fright" freely to
contract to expose herself to dangers
| to life and limb. She has no alterna-
| tive but to suffer want or else to ex-
pose herself to such dangers, and
when she loses hand or is otherwise
manned or disfgured for life, it is a
moral wrong that the whole burden OF
the risk necessarily incidental to the
business should be placed with crush
ing weight upon her weak shoulders,
and all who profit by her work escape
scot-free. Tvs is what opponents 81
a just empl5 gers liability law adyo-
cate; and lis consistent that they
should usually also advocate immunity
for those most dangerous members d
the criminal class the criminals d
great wealth.

Peninsula enterprise. [volume] (Accomac, Va.) 1881-1965, 1908-03-14

Prominent Virginia Republicans are
authority for the statement that I.
Bascomb Slemp, the Virginia Congress
man from the Ninth district, has been
offered a position in the Cabinet Of VIII
liam H. Taft, of Ohio, in the event that
he is elected to the Presidency. The
Republicans in the State are highly
elated over the fact, that Virginia Is
thus to be honored, and profess to be-
lieve that Virginians generally will feel
so highly complmented by this attitude
of Taft toward Virginia, that the time
will not be very remote when the Re
publican party will be predominant III
the State. Senator Noel, who intro
duced the resolution in the Senate OF Vlr'
ginia for the investigation Of Judge
Rhea, and who is slated as the RepuDh
can nominee for Governor, encouraged
by the support given him by the Demo
Gratis in that contest, already boasts
that he will poll the biggest vote polle(
by a nominee of his party in the las
twenty years, and one R. f. Chase
slated as Slemps successor, even pre-
diets that his party will sweep tn
State in the next election. Their boasts
of course, are idle ones, but in then
there are lessons which may be learne'
with profit by some Democrats in tn
future, when they spread political net
with which to ensnare them.

Saturday, March IA, 1908

The tenth annual meeting of the
Accomac Educational Association to be
held on Chincoteague, April 10th and
18th, promises to be full of interest and
instruction to all in attendance. Inc
program is an elaborate one, embrac-
ing many practical subjects for discus
sion in regard to school work of inter
est to every teacher, parent and pupil
That every teacher should be present
during the entire meeting of course goes
without saying. Everything in the pro-
gram looks to the promotion of their
efficiency and contains lessons, to be
learned by an interchange OF views
which will enable them to discharge
their duties better in the future. 1t Is
not only important that they be pres
ent but bring with them samples OF
work of their pupils in every branch OF
study, to the end that practical de-
monstration be given of the work being
done by their respective schools. The
distinguished educators, who will take
part in the proceedings, will add greatly
not only to the success of the meeting
but in their addresses an opportunity
will be given real source Of pleasure
which rarely falls to us in a lifetime
Everyone in Accomac who can ought t.
be present.
