The Sewer PreposItlon
fCoMMUNICATED.1

[CoMMUNIcArED,l
 Only two weeks more and then something over 100 voters will pass upon the all important question of issuing bonds to build a sanitary sewer to serve our population of over three thousand. The small number of qualified voters is due to the laws which require every voter in a bond election to be also on the tax rolls, and considering this fact every one on the rolls and so fortunate to be qualified should take It upon themselves to weigh carefully this question and cast their vote accordingly.
 1t is an easy thing to allow con- ditions to remain as they are. It is easier to stand still than to ad- vance and easier to oppose than to approve any new plans or proposi- tions.
 In questions of this kind, we are often swayed by small, unimportant issues not akin to the main ques- tion, but which can be developed into such proportions that it eclipses all else.
 We are not justifying the sale oi 
 the bonds prior to the election, and 1t may be possible to sell them at a premium instead of at par but we are quite sure of the honesty of purpose on the part of the Board in accepting the 5 per cent rate, which is about one-half the interest charged by the Arizona banks, and if money Is really only worth 5 per cent in the East the Arizona banks are certainly making fine profit, and we are surprised that one of them should ever fail.
 Let Us have sewers. The cess pools are a menace to public health and decency, to say nothing of the open closets, and besides are a source of expense many times greater than the cost of the sewer.
 We shall receive a large rental from Nogales, Sonora, for allowing them to drain through our mains and this will, 1t is estimated, defray V one-half the interest to be paid on our bonds.
 We need new settlers and situ- ated at this port of entry We should hold out inducements for that class of citizenship acquainted with i'm proved conditions and who will add to our wealth and population.

dropped into Nogales, Sonora, and that he has scared witless all off cialdom upon that side of the line, so that none of them dare say their souls are their own, and all are Hooking both ways for Sunday"
 As the story goes the gentleman dropped into the town incognito- so to speak-divulging not his off cial relation. After idling around a few days with his eyes and ears open he dropped into the post office, produced credentials as a special agent, and straightway set about putting all hands in spasms of perturbation For numerous aE- leged shortcomings and glaring de. ficiencies everybody connected with the postal service was given a going over that will be remembered long
 Then the gentleman turned his attention to the custom house, giv- ing the entire institution most thorough shaking up-producing first his credentials as special agent in the treasury department, and then going down the line As a result there has been exercised the most unusual circumspection by all the force. Many little mat ters that had been passed un- needed, such as passing across the fine without duty small parcels, of little or no value, etc, have re- celved attention suddenly, and stopped. Every vehicle crossing the line, passing back and forth formerly at will without notice. is now held up at the qaritd and sub- iect to rigid scrutiny. Hacks which piled back and forth across the line without let or hindrance were held up and not permitted to go over into Mexico until their owners had paid duties. Small articles that were being carried over are re- ported to have been siezed, and 1t Is even stated that a small paper sack with little candy was taken away from asmall girl. Brokers go- ing 10 the custom house to pay duties and offering pesos, complain indignantly that they are subjected to what seems to them impudent Questioning with regard to their possession of the money. (By way of explanation 1t is stated here that when Mexican dollars have left the country once they are subject to duty upon return, and no one is permitted to cross the line with more than five pesos in his possession. Unless he declares at the custom house the number of pesos he has and pays the duty they are subject to seizure. It Is alleged that every dffer of pesos in payment of duty is regarded with suspicion and the broker rendering the money k asked flatly where he got it or if it has not come across the line.
 All the matters mentioned are Annoying grievances and cause much friction and feeling, yet no one can blame the officials and officers of the service for their rigid adherence to law and regulations. They have to protect themselves and their employment, and they know not what moment they may be called to an accounting if they relax their vigilance and attention for moment But the business men on the Sonora side of the line. and the public generally, are pour. inn forth poo ola1iotior. ,,l -

The class historian, Sam Parker, read
the first paper, in which he gave an in
teresting account and history of his
class, reciting it's record and recalling
tie many trials and tribulations it had
encountered. His paper was enjoyed
and received much applause.
Miss charllne Bonner next rendered
a violin solo, "Merdelssohn's Spring
Song" which was fully appreciated by
the audience.
Miss Lula Mae Upshur was the class
prophet, and the future she portrayed
for the various members of her class
were unique and interesting. She read
her paper with much expression and
whetted the attention Of her hearers.
Miss Lalla Rook Hughston made the
musical program more interesting with
her rendition of piano solo, II Troya-
tore.
The class jester of the 1910 class, Mr..
Harper Stoddard, then came forward
with his courtier respects. His anec-
dotes and witticisms that had been
CLEANED from the daily routine of their
work in the school proved most inter-
esting to those present.
The Dance From Faust, by Guonod,
was next sung by the members of the
Graduating Glass, who were accom-
panied on the piano by Mrs. r. A. Topp,
the capable music instructor of the JEFF
fersoa Davis School.
The audience was next treated to an
able criticism which was read by Miss
Irene Christensen, Her paper was
carefully prepared and we'll read, and
her crisitism was sparkled throu ghout
by its uniqueness.
The High School chorus again gave a
number, singing the song of the Triton,
from Molloy.
The class executor Maury Mcintyre,
advised the audience of the sound mind
and body of the graduating class and
read their last will and testament
which was ably prepared.

Delightful Program by the Craduatln9
Class Of 1910.

Tuesday evening was the big night
Greenwood Graded Schools. Ten grad
yates were present to receive tho diplo-
nia for which they had tugged for quite
number of years. Everyone is proud
of this graduating class as it is the larg-
est that has left our schools for a num-
Der OF years. Also because they have
for the past few sessions evidenced so
much interest in their class work and
worked SO faithfully in their desire to
reflect credit upon themselves, their
class and their institution.
The spacious auditorium was fittinglg
decorated for this important occasion,
and the colors Of the graduates were in
much evidence. Everywhere, on the
walls, railings, suspended from the arch,
were pennants and streamers which at
tested their class spirit. Seated to the
right of the rostrum were quite a num-
ber of the high school who added SO
much pleasure to the event by their
musical numbers. The ten graduates
occupied seats to the front of the ros-
trum. while Prof. G. E. Saunders, DR..
Vim. Irvine and the Board of Trustees
watched the proceedings from the rear.
Almost every seat in the large auditor
ium was occupied when the exercises
began and the parents of the graduates
and those participating in the program
were evidently greatly pleased with
their offsprings.
Promptly at eight thirty the exercises
of the evening were opened with "Sol-
dier's Chorus from Faust which was
rendered by the High School. 1t was
next that DIR. VIM. Irvine delivered the
invocation. Then the way was paved
for the interesting programmed that
was to be rendered by the graduates.
Mr.. Hannis Stoddard gave the intro
duction, and he handled his cue happily.
