T.R. Can't See Dedication of Dam.

Some time ago President Orme and
Secretary Van der Veer of the
Water Users association wrote to
ex-President Roosevelt inviting him
to be present at the dedication of
the Roosevelt reservoir on February
% next. The following reply was re-
ceived:
August II, 1910
My Dear Sir:-Mr. Roosevelt re-
quests me to say that he regrets very
much that he will not be in Arizona
at the time you mention, though
hopes to visit that state the follow
ing month. Yours sincerely,

Mr.. Orme Immediately wrote. the
ex- president asking him to name a
date some time between February
% and May Is of next year when it
would be possible for him to be pres
ent, and that they would set the time
for the dedication of the big dam for
that date.
The reservoir was named after the
famous rough rider and it is hoped by
everyone that it will be possible for
him to be present and take part in
the ceremonies attending the open

Strong RumOr of Combining BiSbee
Mines.

(By Frank ]. Graf, member Duluth Stock Elk
Trading in the New York list was
less, sales not reaching the 500, 900
mark for the day. Southern Pacific,
and Union Pacific were sold off rath-
er freely closing at the low mark for
the day. The copper shares list was
firm and prices we're well supported
through the greater part of the day.
Calumet and Arizona sold off closing
at SCI Superior and Pittsburg closed
at 12s. There is still persistent
rumor regarding the consolidation.
and the only drawback to make the
consolidation complete is terms.
From all indications it looks as
though it will be FIVE shares for one,
while others are inclined to believe
four to one. North Butte, Isle
Royale, Utah Copper and Amalga-
mated sold off closing at about the
low mark for the day. Total New
York sales, 1856, 900.

Prefers HANGING,

Frank Spence, the man who killed
Edgar Sullivan in Yavapai county,
passed through Phoenix on his way
to the penitentiary. Sheriff Smith
had him in charge.
He will remain in the penitentiary
the rest of his life, but this does not
seem to be for any great length of
time. He is physical wreck, with
nerves shattered, constitution weak
and body emaciated. He is gloomy
in spirit, and his 90 years weight him
down.
"All my life," he said, 81 have
been in turmoil and strife and [ am
sorry that Governor Sloan commuted
my sentence. l would rather hang
and end the thing, than to be in the
peniteutia-y for life"
1t will be remembered that Gov
ernor Sloan committed him only last
week.

Wants Pensions For Alaska Army DOGS.

Portland, Oregon.-Pensions for
Alaska dogs are to be recommended
to the war department by Brigadier
General Marion P. Maus command
ing the department of the Columbia.
General Maus has returned from a
tour of Alaska military posts and he
said he was so distressed by the pres
ent practice of turning old and dis
abled dogs adrift.
"These dogs have done worthy
service on the trails for years." said
the general. "They afford the only
means of communication between
many of the army posts and are used
to take through supplies. There are
300 of the dogs constantly in the
service.
GAS soon as a dog is disabled or
superannuated, it is turned adrift.
There should be some provision for
these faithful ANIMALS and 1 shall
earnestly recommend the creation of
fund for properly caring for them
when their term of service is ended. "

How the Editor Exists.

We stand sponsor for most of this;
perhaps Brother Halsted has over
drawn the situation a trifle but he
speaks right out in meaning and from
his heart. If you don't believe him,
come in and we'll let you try the job
day for exercise:
The country editor of today has to
get his nose down to the grind stone
and keep it there sixteen hours out
of the day and 365 days in the year,
or he falls by the wayside. There
are men who quit work Saturday night
and rest until Monday morning.
They lay aside business cares at
five or six O'Clock every evening and
do not resume them until seven or
eight next morning. Not so with the
editor. He has no elegant leisure.
He knows no hours, no Sunday, no
night. When he goes to a party or
to church, or on an alleged pleasure
trip, it is all in the line of duty.
Withal, your editor man is a cheerful
long suffering soul, going about doing
good in his humble way. He returns
good for evil. He writes long puffs of
church sociables and in return there
for he accepts a. chunk of cake that
would sink an iron clad. He notes
the arrival of all the babies in his
neigh borhood and externally perfumes
his soul in telling how pretty they
are. He rejoices with the gay and
mourns with those who are sad. He
booms every enterprise which make
his community rich and goes about,
himself clothed in gunny sack and
one suspender. He glories over the
fortune of his neighbor and meekly
eats his own repast of boiled corn
cobs and colored labels off tomato
cans. He can write a sermon, an ac-
count of a prize fight, a political
speech, an obituary notice, poetry,
split wood, pitch hay, wash dishes,
preside at d camp meeting, curry
horses, quote law or gospel, or any
thing else at a moments notice.

France Accepts Virginia's Gift.

Seldom has the famous Palace of
Versailles, which has been the scene
of many historynaking events, includ-
ing the signing of the treaty ending
the American Revolutionary war,
witnessed a more brilliant and dis
tiuguished assemblage than was
gathered in the Marble Hall of the
palace today, when, with ceremonies
BETTING the occasion, the bronze
statue of George Washington, pre-
sented to the French people by the
State of Virginia, was UNVEILED by a
lineal descendant of the Marquis de
Lafayette.
Grouped about the speakers stand,
which was completely covered in red,
white and blue bunting and decorated
with French and American flags, sat
many high officials of France, mem
bers of the diplomatic corps, repres-
entatives of patriotic societies and
other invited guests. Included
among the latter were many promi-
nent members of the American colony
in Paris.
The official program began with an
inyocation, followed by the address
of presentation, which was made by
Col. James Mann, heading the COM
mission representing the State of
Virginia. The other members of the
commission, Messrs. King and
Halsey, also made brief addresses.
The statue was accepted in behalf of
France by NJ. Pichon, the Minister of
Foreign Affairs. The formal exercises
concluded with an address by M.
Jusserand, the French Ambassador to
the United States.
The statue is a replica of Houdon' s
famous statue of Washington, Houdon
went to American in 1856, spent two
weeks as Washingtou's guest at Mt.
Vernon and made mould of his face.
He returned to France and the statue
was made in Paris of marble. 1t was
sent to America and has since reposed
in the Virginia capitol at Richmond.
The gift of the replica to France was
made under a law passed by the Cen
eral Assembly of Virginia "as an ex-
preston of Virginia's admiration and
loving regard"

ElamOn Asked Me TO Silence GOre-COn.
ereSSman Carter.

McAlester, Okla.-Charles Carter,
representative in congress from this
district, was the star witness last
week in the Gore-McMurray inquiry.
His testimony, to some extent, went
to uphold some portions of Senator
Cores story.
Carter testified that Senator Gore
told him about "Jake" lannon's eff
fort to bride him the day after it
was said to have occurred, and limited
at it the same day over the tele-
phone. Carter also told of Hamon
coming to see him, and asking him to
see if he could silence Gore.
Congressman Creager was cross
questioned in detail by "Jake"
Hamon as to his effort to borrow
money from E. c. Million, banker
of McAlester, Okla, who was in
Washington trying to secure the sale
of the surface of the segregated In
dian lands. Hamon also tried to
bring out that Creager had tried to
get McMurray to contribute 800 to
his (Creager's) campaign fund.
Hamon then asked Creager if he
did not have a deal with Gore by
which the latter was to help in his
campaign for reelection in exchange
for his testimony.
Turning to Chairman Burke,
Creager said:
'Mr. Burke, L never make political
deals with Democrats"
Congressman Carter testified that
Dick Adams, the Delaware Indian
lobbyist told him that he had an in
terest of 5 per cent. in the McMur-
ray contracts, contingent on their
being approved.

Ice Chest is a Vertiable Death Trap Says
Wiley.

Without the best care, any refrig-
orator becomes a menace to health.
The famous Or. Wiley, of the United
States bureau of chemistry, has just
gone so far as to declare the average
family refrigerator Yeritable death
trap.
One part of womankind resents
this criticism because it washes up
refrigerators regularly with cold
water; another party leaves all care
of refrigerator and food, together
with the health of the family, to
some unframed maid, imported from
foreign land where refrigerators
are unknown, or to some supposedly
well-trained maid, who believes that
dirt does not exist if it cannot be
seen.
But it is in the unseen uncleanness
of refrigerators where greatest
danger turks. Any disagreeable odor
is sure evidence of the presence of
bacteria, the tiny organisms which
accompany decomposition and decay,
and which breed disease.
Ii is, therefore, not sufficient that
the refrigerator protect food from
flies and mice, or that it should
merely delay decay.
1t should be kept so clean and dry
that it is practically odorless. Even
tiny bit of moldy food will, in an
incredibly short time, cover refrig-
orator full of good food with a growth
of minute bacteria; and these, in the
digestive tracts of human beings, be-
come poisons and cause acute suffer
ing.
Therefore, the woman who keeps
posted on kitchen sanitation looks
personally to the care of her ice
chest, at least once a week. She
sees that all food is taken from the
shelves, and stored under cover in a
cool cupboard.
Then all movable parts of the re-
frigerator, including shelves, pipes
and valves, are transferred to the
sink, and scrubbed with soap suds
containing sal soda. Next they are
scalded with clean boiling water and
set in the sunlight to dry. Shelves
are scrubbed on both sides and clog
ged pipes are freed from slime with
long wire, perhaps an umbrella rod
to which a mop of Irvine is tied.
Any frigerator with a leaky ice
box deserves the extreme condemna-
ton which DR.. Wiley makes Bacter-
ial growth increases rapidly in damp
ness; when in perfect sanitary condi-
ton, the refrigerator is as dry as it
is cold and clean.
Watch out in using ice these hot
days. Be very sure you know the
source of your ice supply before you
use it in water, tea, lemonade and
other summer drinks.
The doctor has some definite ideas
about ice. Some time ago he had a
criminal information brought
against the American Ice company
of Washington, charging it with
selling adulterated ice.
According to DR.. Wiley, ice, even
manufactured ice, isn't always what
it is cracked up to be, which was a
first-class pun when first sprung in
1878. But listen to the doctor:
"The proper way to get cold drinks
is to use coolers in which the ice
does not come in contact with the
liquid.
Even manufactured ice may be
impure, for not all manufacturers
distill the water to be frozen.
'Freezing does not kill germs.
Some of the most dangerous bacteria
thrive in ice, some of them even
growing in size and number. By ex-
pertinent we haYe found that tenn
peratures as low as zero will not kill
dangerous germs"

PheIpS-DOdee Have Not Secured the

ProeressiVeS In Ascendancy.

Des Moines, Iowa.-Republican
Iowa wrote herself as vigorously pro-
gressive August 3 at a convention
which was in an uproar most of the
time. Senators Cummins and Dolli-
yer and the insurgeut delegation at
Washington were enthusiastically
endorsed. The new tariff law is
branded as a failure in the light of
the party pledge of 1908, and Presi-
dent Taft received the most tepid of
lukewarm endorsements. A sop to
harmony was flung out in an endorse
ment of Governor Carroll. An at
tempt to use the "steam roller' to
make the state central committee
overwhelmingly progressive was call
ed off presumably at a hint from
Senator Cummins. Senator Cummins
was temporary chairman and Senator
Dolliver permanent chairman.
The progressive majority was close
to 300 on every question, and the
resolutions committee was progress
i've six to five. The foregoing is
synopsis of the days events, to which
may be added cheers jeers, applause,
music and bowls of discord.
1t came about through the insist
ance of standpatter members of the
platform committee in demanding
unqualified endorsement of the Taft
administration, the legislative acts
of the regular republicans and hos
tility to Cummins and Dollfver. 1t
was determined to exert a little
pressure just to show who is inning
republican politics in Iowa.
The primary law, which provides
that members of the state central
committee be chosen by the couven-
ton, was fastened upon as a means
to this end. 1t was proposed to dis
regard the caucus selections in the
first and ninth districts which are
standpat, and have the convention
substitute progressives in their
places. Attorney General Byers,
chauffeur of the "steam roller"
brought the engine into view with a
motion that the convention proceed
to the selection of state committees.
He was opposed by S. F. Price, who
demanded that the convention pro-
coed in the old fashioned way. A
motion to postpone act options until
after the report of the resolutions
committee had been received, how
eyer carried on roll call.
1t was growing dark when this
item has been disposed of. Then to
the surprise of everyone, Chairman
Dolliver ordered Chauffeur Byers
back to the garage and caucus nomi-
nees were confirmed.
What may have been an attempt
to stampede the delegates in favor
of stalwart republicans was made
when for Congressman Ellsworth
Rominger hoisted portrait of the
president amid standpatter cheers.
The other side answered with silence,
or with jeers.
Later another delegate among the
progressives exposed the picture of
Col. Roosevelt, occasioning demon
stration. The Taft portrait was
again hoisted, and the two likenesses
placed to confront each other. The
demonstration interrupted the roll
call for some minutes.
The staudpat delegation went
down in defeat with the colors rivet-
ed to the mast. They fought in every
committee where fight was possible,
and insisted on roll calls and battled
every inch for their principles.
