GRAPE CROP PROMISES
TO EXCEL LAST YEAR
IN SOME INSTANCES EVEN
GREATER IN QUANTITY BY
TWENTY PER CENT.
A New Variety on the E. Jones Ranch
Ripe Within Two Weeks.

The Thompson Seediess grape grow
ers have every reason to feel proud
over the prospects for a splendid grape
crop again this season. Since the
dangers from late spring frosts have
passed there is practically no more
chances on the grape crop to be taken.
Several of the growers have been in
terviewed in regard to the coming crop
and they each give out the opinion that
this years crop will greatly excel that
of last year which was an excellent
producer. In some instances it is said
that fully twenty per cent more grapes
will be produced on some of the vine
yards than last season.
Ed Jones has a black grape in his
vineyard which has already begun to
turn and he is of the opinion that it
will be ripe within two weeks. I'm
fortunately he has but one vine and
is unable to name the variety. Last
year the vine produced but a few
punches but it gives promise of being
more generous this season. A grape
that could be shipped east during the
first part of June would without a
doubt have a splendid chance to have
the market to itself

ONE IN THREE.
Every Third Person Poisoned By
Coffee.

1t is difficult to MAKE people believe
that coffee is a absolute poison to al
least one person out of every three
but people are slowly finding 1t out
although thousands of them suffer ter
tibly before they discover the fact
A New York hotel man says:
Each time after drinking coffee,
became restless, nervous and excited
so that l was unable to sit five min
utes in one place, was also inclined tc
vomit and suffered from loss of sleep
which got worse and worse.
"a lady said that perhaps coffee was
the cause of my trouble, and suggested
that / try Postum. l laughed at the
thought that coffee hurt me, but she in
sisted so hard that 1 finally had some
Postum made. / have been using ii
in place of coffee ever since, for / no
ticed that all my former nervousness
and irritation disappeared. I began to
sleep perfectly, and the Postum tasted
as good or better than the old coffee
so what was the use of sticking to a
beverage that was running me?
zone day on an excursion up the
country l remarked to a young lady
friend on her greatly improved appear
ance. She explained that some time
before she had quit using coffee and
taken Postum.
She had gaineed a number of pounds
and her former palpitation of the heart
humming in the ears trembling of the
hands and legs, and other disagreeable
feelings had disappeared
"She recommended me to quit coffee
and take Postum, and was very much
surprised 70 find that l had already
made the change.
"She said her brother had also re-
ceived great benefits from leaving off
coffee and taking on Postum" There's
a Reason

pkgs.
Ever read the above letter? A new
one appears from time to time. They
are genuine, true, and full of human
interest.

The Cost, Convenience and
Construction Facilities
THE TEMPE COMMITTEE
Offers a Suggestion Where
by a Bridge at That Point
May Be Utilized by an
Electric Line Which Would
Seek That Route.

To the Editor of The Republican, Sir:
The bridge at Tempe will cost for a
wagon bridge about $4,000 for a
street car. bridge about s65,O00. A
bridge at Tempe will be 1850 feet long.
will be on the main travelled road. can
be built on rock, and will be located
at a point where the river has good
banks. 1t will also be located at a point
where it will accommodate the great
est number of people of the south side,
who are compelled to use a bridge or
else drive the extra three miles and
ford the river at Heard's ranch
If the board of supervisors decide
to build a bridge heavy enough to &C
commodate a street car, the street car
company can be expected to pay at
least $4,000 towards the cost of the
bridge. Two companies now have
franchises from Phoenix to Tempe and
the only thing that has so far kept
them from building has been the cost
of crossing Salt river. The citizens of
Tempe stand ready to grant a fran
chise through the town to any re-
spOnsible company.
The bridge at Heard's ranch is to be
5000 feet long and will cost $125.000.
1t would be built at place where the
river has no well defined banks, where
the only foundation is sand and river
gravel. and is off the main Travelled
road A road would have to be built
through this country at a cost of not
less than $4,000. It would be little
used by the taxpayers. Any person
II |,
ford the river at Tempe than drive the
extra distance. In flood time the south
side residents would of necessity have
to use the bridge, providing of course
that a bridge was built at that point
If Mr.. Heard's plans were carried out
and the two-thirds bridge constructed.
in time of flood the residents Of the
south side could not drive to Phoenix
anyway However il is hardly possible
that the board of supervisors would
consider the proposition of the two
thirds bridge as a new bridge practi-
cally the same length as the original
would have to be built to connect with
the first bridge the first time that we
have a decent raise in the river and it
sweeps around and over the dirt fill
and makes a new channel for itself.
If the county is to spend $4,000 on
a new road through the county it
might much better be spent in con-
structing a good road down to the
Buckeye country where there is large
number of people to use the road and
where it would be of some benefit to
the taxpayers of the county The
Buckeye road is probably the heaviest
Travelled road in the county is the main
travelled road to that part of the coun-
try. and is the most direct route. For
the people of the south side the Tempe
road is the shortest. is the heaviest
travelled and is one of the best roads
in the county.
1t is not reasonable to suppose that
any capitalist is going to put his
money into street car line that runs
through district where there are not
Arizona republican. [volume] (Phoenix, Ariz.) 1890-1930, 1909-05-21

two inhabitants to the mile and expect
it to pay II is not reasonable to sup
pose that anybody is going to build
a line that they do not expect to pay.
If there is a street car line built to
the south side it will run through
Mesa and Tempe. Is anyone going to
build three extra miles of line at a
cost of $4,000 a mile to run through
an unpopulated country?
Three things the Center street COM
mittee are trying to explain to the peo-
pie of the county. How much trade
they will get from the tract of land
south of Phoenix. saying You will get
the south side trade anyway" We will
be pardOned for repeating You will
get the south side trade anyway" and
in the south side we include the tract
of land Just south of Phoenix. How
much trade do the merchants of Phoe-
nix get from the Bartlett Heard Land
and Cattle company?
The second is that the only type of
bridge to be built is the one selected
by Mr. Heard. Who made Mr.. Heard
the Judge of what is best for Mari
copa county?
The third is that they should vote
in the interests of the few promoters
who wish to have a bridge at Center
street.
They say that there is a place hot
ter than the Salt River valley that is
paved with good intentions, the walls
must be lined with promoters. There
has never been a swindle that has not
been well promoted from the time of
John Laws's Mississippi Bubble to the
present day. When progress demands
that improvements should be made, the
people are always alive to their oppor-
tunities, and the people of the Salt
River valley are always willing to aid
deserving enterprise. For example,
how long did it take to raise thousands

MATERIAL ARRIVES SLOWLY.
Waterworks' Contractor Is Compelled
to Quit Work For Several Days.

On account of the non arrival of
pipe. the waterworks' contractor has
been compelled to discontinue oper
atoms until its arrival. The work has
been progressing spIendidly since the
first relay which was occasioned also
on account of the non arrival of ma
terial. The ditch digging machine has
especially come in for a considerable
amount of praise on account of the
rapidly and efficiency demonstrated
by it. The work has just about been
completed as far as the bitches are
concerned. there only being about five
more blocks. The pipe laying gang
has kept up with the digger in sys-
tematic order and on very few occa-
sions have the streets been blocked for
any length of time.

and Tied For the Night.

Officer Peterson yesterday arrested
Juan Morago on a charge of cruelty

al least that he forgot about his horse
which he had left tied in the street

The cruelty to animals charge is one
that is not kept in practice half
enough. There seems to be a tendency
among the Spanish American element
toward this that should be stopped.
