 This resolution passed with no op

 ] Then came the naming of the party | Many names were suggested anC
 many speeches were made. The pri
 mary purpose was the organization o a party whose existence should term

It seemed ot be best
 set forth in The Labor Party" and 1 that name was chosen without divi- | sion.
 The evening session was devoted to
 the beginning of a campaign organiZa-
 tion. The ways and means committee
 and the organization committee of the
 convention were merged into one com
 mittee to be known as the territorial committee of the Labor Party. It ,n- sists of three members each from Co., chise and Maricopa counties, and two members from each of the other coun- ties in Arizona. Not all members thus selected were present, but will be noti fled. The senior member, that is the one first named.' from each county, was designated as the chairman of the country committees which are to be organized under the authority of the territorial committee and which com ufittees are to call for the nomination of candidates in each county, for dele gates to the constitutional convention.
 The sub committee of the territorial committee. appointed on ways and means to conduct the campaign. at the conclusion of the evening session reported flattering progress in provid- ing the sinews of war It reported that one member of the convention who was not named had volunteered a donation of $500 and altogether dona- tions had been promised, aggregating s32OO
 In the morning the convention had been addressed by Mrs. Munds. chair man of the territorial equal suffrage association and Miss Laura Gregg. or ganiZer of the national womans suf- frage association. In the evening Miss Gregg pledged the support of the or ganiZation she represented and Mrs. Munds pledged the support of the 2000 women of the territorial association as a woman n'sauXiliary committee. The socialist delegates in the convention pledged the support of the socialist party in the campaign saving it would not put a ticket in the field. The ways and means committee announced its intention of appealing to the national organization of the labor party for a donation of not to exceed S10 from each union by which means it hopes to have fun of s50,00O for the sup port of orators during the campaign.

nishes some interesting data for those to whom the cleaning up of the streets 1 is a iov. His report is complete in all detail. showing the work done by his l department on every business day oi the month It shows just how many men were employed on each job and -whether they were employees of the city or members of the chain gang
 In regard to the chain gang the re- port shows that 97, full days of labor were obtained from city prisoners dur ing the month of June MT. Christy estimates the value of their labor at S1.75 a day. or a little less than is paid to an able bodied laborer. At this rate the value of their labor amounts to $!6975 From this must be deducted the pay of a guard for sixteen days at g. a day, and an extra meal for each prisoner for every day he works. Meals cost the city 15 cents, and the total is S14O5. leaving a profit in free labor of Sf23. "a, or very nearly the salary att tached to the office of street superin- tendent.
 During the month fourteen new rhmes for carrying irrigation water
 
 Numerous head gates were also made and adjusted. But the constant and ceaseless work of the department has been the cleaning of the ditches. The gangs have moved from one addition to another and when they are through it will be time to begin all over again.
 Another duty that has devolved on the street department is the hosing If the streets at night. Ordinary sprink ling has been kept up night and day, but is not sufficient to obliterate the dhst in the business portion of the city. Nothing but the use of the fire hose fpom the hydrants has been found ade- quate to lay the dust. This is done every night and requires separate gang of men, who work till a. m.
 In closing his report. MT. Christy says:
 We would recommend that there by fire hydrants placed at Twentieth, Twenty first and Twenty second ave nues and Adams street. and also the same avenues and Jefferson street. in the West Capitol addition, to be con- nected with large water mains for the protection of people in that district from fire. At the present time there is no fire hydrant on the west side of the Santa Fe road that can be at tached to the fire hose. We recom- mend that they be given a hose cart with $50 feet of hose on condition that they organize a volunteer fire company. We would recommend also that there be stand pipes near Twenty first and Twenty second avenues on Jefferson, as soon as the main line is placed in the Capitol addition. so that sprinllers can secure water for wet ting the streets there. It is also essen tial that there be good heavy pipe lines

CITY STREETS NOW
 IN BETTER CONDITION
Superintendent christy's Report to the Council Shows What a Job 1t Is to
 Keep the City spick and Span.

That the streets of Phoenix and the ditches are in better condition now than they have been In a number of years is the general opinion of those who have noted the gradual improve ment under the administration of Su- perintendent O. Fl. Christy uangs of men have been kept constantly at work cleaning up brush, digging out the ditches and renewing the fumes all over the city. Another gang, consist ing of the prisoners in the city jail have been utilized without expense to the city.

 We have cleared the brush from the streets in Capitol addition and have done considerable work in the east end of town entirely with the chain gang; also work in the ditches. We have been flooding the streets according to the request of the city council Tn the center of town. where the streets were filled with chuck holes, we have had them filled in so that the streets are now in pretty good condition.
 We would recommend that the city make some provision for securing Q lot on which to store hay and thus no.

run a needless risk of burning up all the horses, sprinklers, etc, which are at the city corral.
 We have taken up the Brill addition irrigation and also the Collins, and are getting along successfully.
 Tt is the opinion of the street de- partment that a liberal amount of in surance on all horses. harness, sprink- lers. wagons. etc, in the corral should be carried. We have ordered a fire plug at either end of the corral and propose to attach a fiftyfOot hose so that in case of fire in the corral, one or two men can handle-it. We have taken out insurance on our grain in the Valley and Phoenix mills.'

A New World Record.

1t remained for the Missouri
College Of Agriculture at Column
bia, Missouri, to raise and de
velop the Champion Dairy Cow
of all the world. Missouri Chief
Josephine, a Holstein-Friesian
COW finished her six months test
on July 18th, producing l7,00S.S
pounds, an average of 1874 pounds
of milk daily for lS2 days. This
is equivalent to 46.7 quarts, or
1l.6 gallons every day. Her
highest record for one day was
l10.2 pounds. This record Is
the more remarkable because no
special preparation had been
made for this test and
Josephine has done her full duty
in the regular dairy herd of the
University, having had five calves
in five and one-half years.
Not only has this record smash
ed all previous worlds records fol
milk production, but the per cent
of butter fat is increasing daily.
so that, barring accidents, this
COW will undoubtedly produce
more butter during a period OF
twelve months than any Other
cow that has ever been tested IL
the world.
This COW is but one of a mum
Der of remarkable cows owned b,
the University of Missouri ant
maintained solely for the in
struction of its students in AZ
riculture and for Investigations
purposes. Only twenty Jerse.
cows in the history Of the worl
have produced more than 10
pounds of butter in one year. Fly
of these cows, or % per cent
the total number are owned an
were bred by the Missouri inst
tuition. The college owns MOI
than 300 pure bred and register'
animals, belonging to II oil
tinct breeds,
Josephine's record exceeds IL
present worlds record for S
months by 1853 pounds.

Railroad Men in Public Service

One of the nations present
troubles is that too few railroad
men are holding jobs in our city,
state, and national governments.
The railroads, being not only
our largest, but in many
ways our most romantic and mteyHI
esting business, naturally attract
a large portion of our best young
talent. Thousands of fathers are
irving to secure positions for
their sons in railroad offices. En-
ergetic, able, young men can be-
gin at the beginning in railroad
ing-which means in car SHOPS
in offices, or on trains-and work
their ways to the top.
For every thousand fathers VIII
, want to place their sons in rail
reading as a life work, probably
not one is starting his boys IN
politics. The government can
not compete with the railroads fol
j.. talent, and there are many good
reasons for this. First Of all.
, politics is regarded-we say Il
with regret-as a dirty business
Second, it does not pay well, un
! less a man is a CRATER. Third
hard, honest work does not bring
n advancement.
p Plainly this is bad business TO.

are sure to realize that whateye
o is bad for the government IS BAT
n for the people individually a
u well as collectively.
