IA VICTORY
 BY DEFEAT The Mesa Base Ball Team
 Saved Its Honor THOUGH II LOST THE CUP Series Has Also Proved the Loyalty and Confidence of the Business Men and Citizens of the Commu- nity
THOUGH II LOST THE CUP

The Mesa Union high school base ball team has suffered defeat and has lost the right To possess the beautiful loving cup presented by this paper to the winning team of the series. The winning of the cup is q thing of which the normal team may be proud, and the losing of the cup is a thing which naturally brings relative amount of humiliation upon the members of the Mesa team and the Mesa school and the city of Mesa. The winning of the series after all is only incidental. In the sturdy fight for the goal toward which all the valley teams had their eyes fixed. the Mesa team has won and kept the respect uf their home town First. last and all the time throughout this series the business men. the ranch CTS. the tourists and in fact practical
 y every citizen has felt an interest in the outcome of the contest that has been so valiantly lost There is not another team in the valley that has had half the support from outside the school circle as the Mesa team. Mass meetings of importance have been post ppned, business houses-and by this is meant firms whose sales run well up into the quarter million dollars annual ly-hdVe closed their doors during the games. the mayor has issued procla- nation declaring a holiday-and all to one end that the Mesa team might have the support of the town As time goes along the fact that Mesa lost The Republican cup in the series of 1910 will be forgotten. But the important feature that will live for q long time is the manner in which Mesa as whole. supports clean sportsmanlike baseball. And today the Mesa team shorn of the honors so nearly won. temporarily humilated by the crush ing defeat. possesses that for which any team should well be prOud-the unprejudiced solid support of the town and the school from which it came. Ask any man who has his finger on the throbbing pulse of a growing town if the action and interest of Mesa in support of her team means anything to him Behind all the incidents usual ly accompanying the excitement of a close contest he will see the stuff from which cities are made.

4 NUCLEUS FORMED
 FOR 4 COUNTRY CLUB
Its Headquarters to Be at the lapham
 Resort.

\ nucleus was formed yesterday for
 what may probably result in the or ganization of country club when the Lapham resort, mile west of Mesa, was formerly opened with an elaborate turkey dinner served in courses fol lowed by an afternoon exhibition of different games and amusemcnts.
 It will be remembered that the Lap hams came here from Chicago and pur- chased the old Spainhouer ranch. Since that time they have converted it into q veritable play ground with tennis court, golf links, croquet grounds and paraphernalia for fencing, archery and multitude of other sports and amuse- ments. The grounds have been beauti- fled and an automobile and motor car as well as a string of thoroughbred horses have been added to assist in the entertainment of the> guests of the Laphams.
 Mir Lapham has spent upwards of three thousand dollars in the beauti- lying of the grounds alone and he has done SD with one idel-that of making a resort where his guests may enjoy themselves and where rest may be se- Eult0- II lS Ilbl lllt itS4If bl MI Lap ham to have the word resort miscOn- strued to mean sanitarium. for the place is for the use of those who are able to appreciate the sports and to enjoy the change naturally occasioned by getting from the city into the cOun- try.
 Since the completion of the grounds or rather since the completion of part of the grounds. for it is the idea of Mr Lapham to keep adding new ideas from time to time. there has been a move on foot to make a country club out of the proposition. The idea has appealed to a number of the business men, and the proposition is very logical one.
 Among those who were present yes terday were: Mir. and Mrs. w. T. Payne. MT. and Mrs. w. x. Stevenson. Victor Core. Twain Clement, MT. and Mrs. l.. w. COombs, Miss Adelle BOsworth. Miss Mable Pomeroy, Miss Hilda Els worth. Miss Grace Peterson, Miss Bull lock, Erastus LeBarOn, FlOOyd Jenkins and Mir FOlett. This is of course only a partial list there being twenty-five present at dinner. and the number was probably swelled to thirtyfivc during the afternoon.

 Mir. J. w WOOlf. Tempe. Ariz.
 Dear Sir: In your recent letter you expressed in a way most gratifying tn me your interest in the conservation movement.

 This association offers to you and every other man and woman who stands for it's principles the best and nearest opportunity for united and effective work. believe no other organization has so large an Oppor- tunity tO serve the nation today. Of course. it's usefulness depends directly on the patriotic men and women who work together as it's members. It needs the help of every friend of con- servation in united effort to make sure that the natural resources which belong to the people shall be con served and used for the benefit of Us all, and not merely for the profit of a few.
 on behalf of the association. I ask for your membership and your indi- vidual help. The association is trying to get the principles of conservation put into practical effect. It will keep it's members informed upon measures framed to promote conservation ar to impede it. and will suggest how its members can best help to get good conservation laws passed and to keep bad laws from passing.
 The National Conservation assOcia- tion is a fighting organization. It is for the prompt and orderly of our natural resources. for the protection of these resources as the springs of prosperity for the welfare of ourselves and our children, and for the rights of the plain peO- pie.
 Will you give me your help and ask for me the help of your friends? Can you get ten members. for the aSsocia- tion? I shall greatly appreciate your
