SAN SIMON VALLEY
 ALIVE TO ITS INTERESTS
Possibilities of That Section
 Are Becoming Evident.

That the people of the San Simon valley and elsewhere are becoming very much alive to the farming pos abilities of that section, is evident, says the Paradise Record, and as means to accomplish the desired re suit, there are many who are just now casting longing eyes toward Cave creek whose waters flow from ten to twelve months each year. J. A. Chenowth, the well known val ley farmer, Is the promoter of a sec ond irrigation scheme for the San Simon; and, as he is an old-time and successful southwestern farmer who knows as much as any one about the facts and possibilities of that valley, the outcome of his new scheme will be awaited by the general public with great deal of interest The Che nowth ranch is located about five miles east of Rodeo and twelve miles from Paradise.
 The following is from the Lords burg Liberal:
 The Cave Creek Irrigation com pany has been organized under the laws of Arizona by J. A. Chenowth, c. A. Chenowth, Hale Chenowth, Rob ert Martyr, B. B. Ownby and James s. Fielder. The object of the organ ization is to acquire the flood waters and under ground flow at Cave creek, which is in Arizona, at the box can yon, then take the water to the mouth of the canyon, thence south three or four miles, as far as possi- ble, owing to the lay of the country, then easterly into Grant county, New Mexico, some five miles, terminating three or four miles south of Rodeo There is a great deal of water in Cave creek which now goes to waste and which the company intends to conserve. The creek flows nearly all the year. The water they will have will irrigate great many acres of land and put 1t on a productive basis. Most of the land that will be irrigat- ed is in Grant county"

BOARDS OF HEALTH IN THE TERRITORY
Every County In Arizona Now Has an Active Organization
 and an Officer,

Every county in Arizona mas a Board of Health and an active health officer. They report that doctors are getting into the habit of reporting, also that the people are taking an active interest in the yitaI statistics of the Territory as well as in sanitary work. Three towns have made a gen. eral cleanup. The others ought to.

STRAY GH|NAMEN | CAUGHT AT Fl PASO
Eleven Nabbed By immigration Officers and Will Go Back
 to the Orient,

Eleven Chinese were caught late Saturday night in the G. H. yards st
 Gl Paso by immigration officers and seven of the number were yesterday morning ordered deported to China by Commissioner W. D. Howe.
 The eleven Chinks caught Satur- day night were first seen along the west side of Mount Franklin and were heading for the city when an inforn.- ant called up the immigration Beers and put them on the track. The bunch came down into the city ane reached Campbell street, where they separated into two bands. each mak- ing for the~G. H. yards by separate routes. By this time several inspect ors[had arrived on the scene, includ- ing Chief Harris of the immigration station. The two punches were shad- owed and when they reached the rail road yards and again joined forces, they were nabbed and taken to the Santa Fe detention station.
 The fact that the Chinese were first seen at the foot of Mount Frank lin makes the immigration officers believe that the bunch crossed the river at some place north of Fl Paso and then made their way here with the object of getting into a car, to be hauled to Colorado.
 It is believed there is a studied at- tempt at smuggling Chinese over the river at Fl Paso and the capture of several bands recently bears this theory out. The belief that there is an organized effort or foot among some railroad employees to aid the Chinese in getting out of Fl Paso into the interior Is strengthened by the capture of the bunch in a box car several days ago and the attempt of the eleven caught Saturday night to get into the G. H. yards after making a wide detour of the country about Mount Franklin to reach the city.
 At the trial the seven ordered de- ported admitted that they were born in China and were only desirous of getting into the United States.
 A large number of the Ceiestials arrived in Juarez recently and have been trying to get into the United States since. Another one was caught in the lower city. Some of the cases have been postponed for several days after which the commissioner will pass on them.

the Presidents recommendations as possible Tor Speaker Cannon and his dominant faction in the House and the group of ruling Senators as averse to enacting any of the pend ing measures for economic and labor legislation. But those Congressmen from close and doubtful districts who fear defeat are constantly bringing
 pressure for action, so 7they can be recorded as voting for the Roosevelt
 recommendations and thus prove to their constituents they are real simon pure reformers
 In the end there wiE probably be a compromise, but how much will De conceded by the Republican leauers to the President and the scared Con
 greSsmen will not be certain until near the close of the session. The Republican leaders are intent on fix- ing up a "clean record" for the Con gressmen to appeal to their voters to for reelection. The President de- mands more than this and has been aiding the Democrats fin delaying and possibly preventing a worthless com promise. His messages and his urg- ings have gone hand and glove with the Democratic plan of campaign to smoke out" the Republican major fly.
 There is this to be said about at tempting to pass all these important matters of legislation thus late in the session; it is hopeless to proper ly perfect those bills that verge towards unconstitutionality and re- quire the greatest care In their Ian. guage and scope to escape the veto oe the Supreme court. If the nscG-s sary time had been taken by the Com mittces in the early days of the ses- sion to perfect the proposed laws there would be 8 much better chance of uniting them, but with doubt and despondency uppermost in the minds of Republicans. it will now be alnost impossible to amend them so that they will pass muster.
 Out of all the buster about reform and remedial legislation only three bills seem to have any show of enact ment and these are comparatively worthless to the interests pretended to be served The anti-injunction bill is farce; the measure for the com pensation of employees injured in the public service may be of some value If properly administered, and the child labor law for the District of Co lumbia Is but similar to the statute oS most of the states. As far as cur rency legislation is concerned the Vreeland bill is worse than useless and no agreement may be reacheo vn even that worthless proposition, though it is undoubtedly of value to the Wall street interests. or their friends would not be fighting for it.

CONGRESS MUST GET BUSY SOON
 AND PASS LAWS
Speaker Cannon and Republi- can Leaders Are Almost Nervous Wrecks Over Prod ding of the Democrats Recently.
(Speciaa to Review.

WASHINGTON, D. C., May i2.- Congress has arrived at the stage where it must do something, bot the question Is to agree on a program and unite enough members to pass certain bills that are politically desirable So far tae Republican leaders have managed to kill time and yet appear to be busy, but really have done noCh- ing, but pass appropriation bills and private laws in the interest of taAUi ed constituents. The fact is our Re publican friends are not united on a program. The leaders expected to be able to carry out this do-nothing pro gram and adjourn early. but two ob- stacles have appeared and both are serious ones to overcome and still sp- pear to keep faith with the people. The Democratic program of insisting on the regular order under the Iulcs until certain bills based on the rec emmendation of President Roosevelt were reported from the committees and voted upon, has resulted in bring ing the attention of the voters to such reform legislation This is the first obstacle and the special rules adopceo by the Republicans to tie the hands of the Democrats, have had the eff feet of making the donothing policy of the Republican leaders more than ever apparent
 Speaker Cannon and the Republi- can leaders have become nervous wrecks through this prodding of the Democrats, but they would not have worried about it so much If obslacIe two fn the person of President Roose- welt had not reinforced the Democrat ic program. There Is no love lost between the Republican leaders and the President. Every fresh message sent to Congress instead of pouring oil on the troubled waters of the Re publican managers has had the more drastic effect of rubbing salt into their political sores. The President aas also threatened to veto the pork bill" as the public building measure is called, and has had it given out on the highest authority" that a special session might be expected unless my policies" are given consideration. The Republican leaders claim that Presi- dent Roosevelt agreed to abiGe by the program of legislation submitted to him, and not to stir up Congress ana the country with any more red not messages and has broken his word The Presidents policies include cur rency legislation; an anti-injunction law; amendments to the Sherman antitrust law; the tariff on wood pulp and print paper; an employer 5 liability bill to cover government em- ployees: a child labor bill for the Dls- trict of Columbia; a campaign public ity law. Nearly all of these measm es are endorsed by the Democrats. Then there is the Brownsville affray pend ing in the Senate, which must bs acted upon, so Senator Foraker says, before Congress will be allowed to adjourn, and is quite likely to be an important issue between the Admins tration and anti-Administration Sen atorS.
 The Republican leaders will con cede to their followers just as little of

HOMESTEAD FILINGS
 0N ARIZONA LANDS
Figures Show Last Years Acreage Almost Double
 That of Previous Year.

Secretary George W. Cowgirl of the Globe board of trade has secured fig ures from another source, the United States land office, which give testi- mony to the rapidity with which Ari- zona is settling up. The figures are for two years running from April 1 to April 1, and show that 4S,461 acres more land were filed upon under tho homestead laws in the year just end ed than in the year before. Here are the figures:
 1906-7 1907-S inc. Acreage ....65,153 113,614 4S,461 Entries .... 467 865 39S Fees .....s4,190 s7,se6 s3,676
 Prospective settlers in Arizona should understand, however, that this showing has nothing to do with the irrigated district to be watered by the Roosevelt reservoir. There may have been a few entries along the fringe of the desert, near the district, but no considerable acreage. me land in the reservoir district is all title land, under frrigating canals, and can be bought only of present private owners, not Uncle Sam, who has Iro lands for sale in the district The reason private owners have it for sale is that some of them have acquired larger holdings than the government will permit one owner to get water for and the land must be sold if cul- tivated. Others do not care to culti- vate their full holdings, even with the governments permission, for they can make living on a much smaller hold ing and start bank account by sell ing the surplus at modest price.
 The greater part ot the land en- tered by homestead has been in the Sulphur Springs and other large val leys where aTtesian water is avail able, and in the mountain valleys.

OF three to report on arrangements
for permanent auxiliary organization
of the accounting officers of the lea

Davenport is the best represented
city at the convention. Mayor Scott
is here with his entire force of city
fathers, fourteen in all.
If the size of the city is taken into
consideration, though, Eldon can
claim more than that, as Mayor d.

Sewerage and sewerage disposition
was the main topic of the discussion
at the committee meeting of the may.
ors and councilmen. In great many
cities where the sewerage finally
empties into streams pollution follows,
and to avoid this, septic tanks are
thought to be the only remedy. These
tanks can receive all the refuse and
sewerage matter from the largest Of
Iowa's cities and dispose of it in such
a way that harm to the purity of the
streams can be entirely eliminated,

; speakers. The committee meeting was
presided over by Dr. f. w. Daubney
