ENDORSEMENT OF THE
 NATIONAL FARMER
AN EXPRESSION CONCERNING '- THE SUGAR BEET BUSINESS.
History Recital That Reflects Credit
 On he Gentlemen Managing the
 Southwestern Sugar and Land Go.

The vital question with the farmers of this valley this fall, in respect of the sugar beet business, has been, can the factory management make good and will it do so? The Republican has presented all kinds of testimony and it was all good. Here is another item worth reading, clipped from The Ma tional Farmer a well known and relia- ble farm journal. The reader is es- pecially requested to note the last end of the article which refers to the rec ord Of this same arrangement. The National Farmer says:
 Another enterprise carried by a De- troit financial concern through a re- ceivership period and sold as a going concern is on its feet again and ready for operations on an extended scale. This incident recalls the fact that the development of the beet sugar indus try in the Arizona valley near Phoenix, has encountered unexpected disap- pointments and discOuragements. It resulted, however, in showing there is nowhere a better region for the culture of the sugar beet. The enterprise of certain capitalists resulted in the con- structiOn near Phoenix of a factory. installation of machinery at a cost of perhaps a million dollars, an ex- penditure so great that somebody must carry it out to success.
 Then the company fell through and the splendid plant lapsed into innocu Ous desuetude. Last March a Detroit banking company sold out the Eastern Sugar Co. of Arizona, to syndicate of bondholders and other creditors for something less than $1 1,o00, 900.
 The Arizona Sugar company was or ganized to take over the property, and Thursday it was reported that the large amount of additional capitaliza- ton needed to do business on an ade- quate scale had been secured. The capitalization is now S1.500.000. and a good percentage is held in Detroit.
 The company has contracted for be- tween 1000 and 5000 acres of beets and will put 1000 acres to beets as a company work.
 One of the causes of previous fail ures was the lack of the necessary capital for so mammoth an Undertak- ing Under the arrangement recently completed. by which activity is to be resumed. there will be no lack of cap ital. The men now behind it have il in abundance. What is equally as inn pCrtant, they have the experience and

HOME CURE FOR ECZEMA.
Oil of Wintergreen, Thymol, Glycerine,
 Etc, Used as a Simple Wash.

It really seems strange that so many people suffer year in and year out with eczema, when it is now no longer a secret that oil of winter green mixed with thymol, glycerine, etc, makes a wash that is bound to cure.
 Old, obstinate cases. it is true. can not be cured in few days, but there is absolutely no sufferer from eczema who ever used this simple wash and did not find immediately that won derfully soothing, calm, cool sensa- tion that comes when the itch is taken away. Instantly upon apply ing a few drops of the wash the rem -edy takes effect, the itch is allayed. There is no need of experiment-the patient knows at once.
 Instead of trying to compound the oil of wintergreen, thymol, glycerine. etc, in the right proportions our selves we are using a prescription selves We are using a prescription which is universally found the most effective. It is known as the D. D. D. Prescription, or Oil of Wintergreen Compound. It is made by the D. D. D. Co. of Chicago, and our long ex- perience with this remedy has given us great confidence in it's merits. Elvey & Hulett.

FUNERAL SERVICES
 OF MRS. JAMESON

The funeral of Mrs. J. NJ. Jamison was held yesterday afternoon at ? o'clock from the undertaking parlors of Mohn & Driscon. The service. which was conducted by Rev. J. w Atwood. rector of Trinity church. was simple and impressive.

batiste embroidery. The skirt and bodice were joined at the sides by narrow strap belt of the satin, which met the princesse panel in the front and back.
 Two other frecks, made on this one piece semi-princesse plan, are Illustrated among the cuts. Both of these gowns w-e planned for street wear. and were made with short skirts. although In light colored materials of a more dressy char acter the designs would serve as well for theater or reception gowns, n trained skirt being se.,c,ed In place Of the walk Ing length.
 One Of ihe gowns illustrated was Of dark blue chiffon panama, trimmed with black satin and rather elaborately braided with narrow black silk soutache. The side of the bodice over the shoulder was cut in one. piece with the sleeve. this portion having the allover braided design. Such braidlng really Is not as difficult as an inexperienced sewer would imagine, ard in copying the gown 1t would be simple mater to have the Tarts 10 be braided stamped and braided before the gown IS made up.
 little braidlng was also used on the middle front Of the bodice, and the but tons used could he made of the gown material. The yoke of this model was of washable tgcked net. as were tue under sleeves
 The other gown illustrated was of dark smoke grey crepe de chine, and was made with the nep' tight fitting wrinkled sleeve of dotted net. with a line of white em- brodery hut,oDs down the outer arm. Buttons also trimmed the gown itself and were of satin to match the material Satin scarfs 1rlshed b. drop ornaments and silk tassels to match were slipped through sashes or each side of the bodice front and little braiding done in cord tO match was applied on these straps under which the scarfs were passed and on the band across the front of the waist.
 It win he seen hy a study Of the draw ings that the plaited skirt still holds its owu especially in models of tho-yalking skirt length. An attractive novelty Is shown in some of the new cloth street suits in the form of a skirt so plaiteG that the upper part is of solid color matching the cont, while 1t flares out below the hip line to show 2 wide stripe of plaid or narrower stripes. These cOm- bination cloths for suits are among the new fall importations. and are particular ly liked for young girls costumes. These Dlaited skirts must, to be really smart, fit very snugly and flatly about the hips, and should be worn over cloSely-ltted gOred petticoat or else over knickers of black satin or pongee. All the new skirts fall in Imply about the feet. and many of the gowns arel of the modified sheath order adapted to American wearers.

J. OF A. ACQUISITION
 4 FORMER SPRINTER
ONCE THE CHAMPION RUNNER
 OF ALL ENGLAND.
A Record of the Remarkable Per- formance of George kerby Who Had It in Him to Run.

Tucson, Nov. 1-(Special Corres- pOndence of The Republican )-Track men at the University of Arizona are just now much interested in a man who came to that institution few days ago. He is George Kerby, for merly of Gcrnal, England, once the holder of the English Sprinting championship.
 Kerby was born in England in 1884. As a boy he was convinced of his natural ability as a runner. At % years he went on the professional track The highest honor track could bestow was the winning of Peats All England e100 Handicap. The boy started out to win that far away ambition. Gradually he gained fame as The Pedestrian of the Mid lands" Then he began to take sec ond honors with the best men on the track. Just then a prodigy of the track sprang into prominence, one Ali Cotton. and was backed by turf men. Kerby's trainers challenged Cotton and the boy beat the sup posed invincible badly. Next he twice took second place in Wager & Coop CTS All England 13O yard meet at Ashton Cross, Birmingham, during 1872 and early 1873. At last, five years from the time he donned spikes. the persistent lad realized his hopes by winning in April. 1873, Peats All England Handicap at Sheffield, in q 205 yard dash, against 103 entries. His triumph was watched by 36,000 people, the largest crowd ever pres ent at a Sheffield meet. He made over e1,0OO ($5,O0O) for winning the race.
 Kerby kept his place on the track for several years. winning hundreds of races. Perhaps no runner on the English track ever took so many firsts and seconds, and so few thirds as the Gornal sprinter. He trained himself in secret and came out with unlocked for bursts of speed He was never a long distance man, though he ran a few hurdle races. His distance was 100 to 205 yards. Under train ing he carried 140 pounds.
 He left the track in 1875 and came to California in 1886. Since that time he has worked in both Americas in various capacities and was employed recently by the university as a car penter. He has many newspaper clippings and records in proof of his success on the track in his better days.

THREE CONTESTANTS
 HAVE POSTED MONEY
IN THE RACE FOR THE ARIZONA
 REPUBLICANS TROPHY.
F. C. Fenner, Leon T. s. ShettIer and Andy Smith Will Compete For in the Desert Race.

With three positive entries and the excellent probability of a fourth the great Los Angeles Phoenix automobile race has ceased to be nebulous en- certainty and has also become a real ity. It will be the greatest long dis tance endurance run in the history of automobiling.
 The race, which was promoted by The Arizona Republican, will be for the silver cup offered by this paper and for the Los Angeles Phoenix rec ord. The contestants will start at mid night Saturday from the Hollenbeck hotel and citizens of Phoenix may be- gin to look for the first auto to poke its nose into the city about II am. Monday. This Is based 'on the estimate made by Bert Latham who will drive Shelters Kisselkar Latham expects to make the trip in 8 hours or under which means an average speed of 15 miles an hour over the worst roads in the country. A. J. Smith, who has en- tered the race with his Elmore says the winner will not arrive in Phoenix under 50 hours which would bring him here Tuesday morning at o'clock.
 Another contestant who has posted his entry fee of $500 with John s. Mitchell of the Hollenbeck who repre- sents the Maricopa County AutOmO- bile club in Los Angeles, is F. C. Fen ner who will enter his White Steamer Black Bess. Nothing has yet been heard from Leavitt who will probably enter his Locomobile in case it is in good condition after the 24 hour race at Ascot park.
 Andy Smith. who visited Phoenix last week in a test trip over the course wired the Fillmore Garage to post his entry fee as soon as he found out how bad the roads were. His car, the Bull dog. is especially adapted for rough work and when he started from Los Angeles on the trial trip he had no in tention of entering if he found the roads in such good condition that high speeding would result. He looks on the race as the greatest test of auto mobile construction that has ever oc- cured and entered on that basis. Many men are putting their faith in Andy and a few dollars are being cir culated which will enrich some of the

For any gown to be worn on the street overtrlmmlng must be carefully avoided, and some of the most desirable and becoming frOcks seen have no trim ming at sl, except possibly bias bands and buttons of the same material, or a little self-colored braidlng or embroidery.
 For instance, one smart-looklng frock of black messaline. which could be worn on the street during the late summer and AS a house dress later on. was made with a princesse panel fin the middle of the back and front, on either side of which were placed, as far as the hip line, row O. satin-covered buttons.

 I have endeavOred during my term of office to help conduct the business of the county in a businesslille manner not neglecting the county's business to attend to my own affairs.
 I have personally examined each and every itemized bill at the itime it was filed in the office, in that way having time to audit same more carefully than to wait until time of payment. the first of each month. I have also personally examined all of the reports of the county officers filed in our office the first of each month so as to be sure that they were correct before their salaries were paid.
 I have enumerated here only a few of the duties of the office, but in the transaction of all other business con- nected with the office I have been equally as careful, and T believe this is a proper time to make a report of my work while in the office. I hope that my past record has met with your approval, and hope you may deem it to vOur best interest to re- elect me. If reelected, I will give Maricopa county the same honest and careful administration as in the past.
 Yours very truly,
