their Waterloo Saturday afternoon, when they played the Fitchville team on the park and were defeated IS to Il. The game was lost to the locals by err TOTS. They outplayed their opponents. but their errors cost them runs every time and lost them the game. Shu- grue went in the box the first inning and was batted for five runs. Lazinsk went in to pitch in the second inning, but was unable to pitch but three in nings on account of his arm giving out. He had just settled down to good work, as the score shows, when he was obliged to retire.

A Strike Against War.

A strike of WorkinRmen aga in t war-that is the method advocated in The London Chronicle by Maurice Hewitt as effective to bring about in ternational disarmament In it's final meaning, this would be only an ap- peal to public opinion. Here is an other effort to induce organized labor to regard itself a class. to attempt republic such as the United States that effort could not succeed. It ig- nores the cardinal principle that Ill men are created equal, whatever SD . cial condition they may attain after wards. The interparliam entary union, for example, will not consider such q proposition.
 Such radicalism ignores the power of the franchise. It shuts it's eyes to the theory and the practice of repre- sentative government It is this spiri D that assumes that all the work of the world is performed by manual Ia ; bor. It forgets that to paralyze so- ciety would mean suicide and starva- tion- It is almost superfiuous to sug- gest that there are practical difficul- ties in the way of a strike agains; war. To be effective such a move ment must be international Again there must be some obvious force be- hind such a threat No joint com mittee of trades unions can be foun,. with souls dead to deny it's na tive land.-Washington Post.

THE BEsELAMA GRANT
Upon the Sinslos River Taken in Hand and Subdivided for a Great
 Colonization Enterprise.


 and Subdivded for Great
 Colonization Enterprise.
 A syndicate at the head of which are Doctor E. H. Conway of the City of Mexico and General Henry Ide Wiley of New York City, has acquired the Bebelama grant, on the Sinaloa river, in the state of Sinaloa, which property embraces 66,000 acres of the finest land any where on earth, Ia very rich and fertile alluvial soil) with an abun- dant supply of water, sufficient to irrigate every inch of the land em- braced, all of which is susceptible of the highest cultivation, with canal sixteen miles long now in operation, and laterals built al- ready to cover the greater part of the ground and every facility in hand for covering it all when necessary.
 The land lies fifteen miles west of the line of the Southern Pacific Railway of Mexico, and extends to the Gulf of California, where there are two good harbors, both skirted by the water front of the grant, which are ports of call for coasting vessels A good automobile road connects the railway station with the land and extends to the har- bors mentioned.
 As mentioned above the soil is rich alluvium, very fertile, suscep- tible of the highest cultivation, and raises heavy crops of all kinds cotton. corn, tobacco, chili, toma- toes, garbanzos, alfalfa, fruits of all kinds, etc., etc. From eight to ten crops of alfalfa can be cut each year.
 The tract has been Subdlvlded into lots of about sixty acres each, thatTare to be put upon the market and sold to actual cultivators at moderate prices and upon easy terms. The gentlemen having in hand the enterprise have projected an elaborate campaign of coloniza- ton. and will devote their energies to filling the tract with a working farmer upon each subdivision in the shortest possible time. They are men who have been successful in all undertakings, and they will put into the Bebelama enterprise an energy and experience that will add to the state of Sinaloa pros porous and thriving colony.

FROM ECUADOR.
M,. Patt R Sullivan, Formerly of "The Oasis" Sends Readable Letter
 From South America.

ica-"Ecuador, the Beautiful" So has this country been referred to
 by Americans who have visited here. And it is beautiful country. But those who have written des.
 criptive articles of Quito, the capi tai of Ecuador, and have asserted that a years residence in Quito is absolutely sure cure for con- sumption have made a mistake that is causing no little trouble Recently a number of people so afflicted have come to Ecuador from
 various sections of the United States, confident that in Quito they would find the Paradise they had been seeking, only to ind there climate that cannot in any way
 compare with the climate of a number of different states in their
 own country. And in comparison
 with the climate of Arizona and
 New Mexico, in the opinion of the
 writer, there is nothing in Ecuador
 worthy of mention. Quito has an
 elevation of 9150 feet and for months at time the climate is such es might be described as most beneficial to those afflicted with consumption. But it is mistake to say the cure is certain. It is not, and at such an elevation, with rain almost every day, the new conner must be very careful to avoid pneumonia, which is always dangerous at such an elevation. Even the natives will tell one that in Quito "it rains thirteen months in the year." With the exception of four months in the year the rains are not heavy, but during the months of January, February, March and April, the rains are tor rential and without cessation for days at time. Truly, that is not conducive to the we'll being of a consumptive. However, some people go there and get we'll. The lower country, along the coast, is very unhealthy, and natives broken down in health, many of them suffering from consumption, go to Quito to recuperate, and do recuperate, even as thousands go from the coast cities of the United States go to the western and south western states and recuperate so rapidly as to astonish friends and medical advisers. The natives of this country, too, go to their noun
 tain towns, and many get we'll, but by no means all of them. But the writer would advise Americans who have consumption to stay in the United States. This advice is not given on hearsay, nor in a fit of the blues. The writer has visited Quito and found it to be not what he was seeking, and certainly not what he was led to believe. Am bato, a town of about eight or ten thousand inhabitants, some seven. ty miles nearer the Pacific coast than Quito, has climate very favorable. Still, not so good as can be found in Arizona or New Mexico with the additional drawback oI filth and poor cooking. Riobamba, about midway between the coast and Quito, is also better than Quito, but not so good as Ambato Both of those towns have an eleva- ton of between eight and ninf
