IL against The vote means that a
large area of land which is now per-
fectly good, but the future of which
was threatened, will be preserved and
that a smaller area which has become
damaged will be reclaimed. The mat
ter is one of vital interest, not only
to the residents but to "a large number
of nonresident property owners who
are all in favor of a plan of drainage.
The Mckee valley is recognized as one
of the prettiest and most fruitful Of
the sub-valleys of the Yakima and
the vote of Saturday means that 1t is
to be kept in front in progressive de-
velopment plans. 1t will be remem-
bered that some months ago federal
experts were here and went over the
conditions to be encountered, gave the
benefit of their advice and experience
and recommended the improvement.
Drainage on Reservation.
Engineer Martin, who is carrying on
the drainage canal work on the Yak
ina reservation, was in North Yakima
Saturday. He is elected with the sue
cess which has so far been encounter
ed. Two miles of the 25 or 80 miles
Of drainage canal to be dug have al
ready been scooped out and the results
are already much in evidence. Work
was commenced about twelve miles
west of Toppenish at a point on Top
penish creek from which it was pos
sible to dig in such a way that the
canal would begin to render a benefit
almost from the outset This benefit,
Mr.. Martin says is plain, as there is
water now running in considerable
quantities from the land through
which the ditch has been carried. 1t
is the intention to keep the work 60
ing all through the winter and in a
very short time now it is expected,
the dredge will be in service.

KNAPP Says VOTE
OUT the SALOONS
Thinks "Dry" Towns Have Shown
Biggest Improvement Since
He Visited Here.

E. c. Knapp, Sunday school spec
ialist. in speaking to the large mass
meeting of church workers last Sun
day afternoon in the Baptist church
said: Last year when 1 visited this
section many of the towns I visited
were just in the midst Of local OPP
ton campaign. The saloons were
eliminated soon after in some of the
these places and they are as different
as light and darkness" Mr.. Knapp
stated that one could hardly realize
that such a great change could take
place in a few months. but the in
habitants of these places were re-
joicing and very much happier. He
expressed the wish that North Yaki-
ma would follow this example and
vote the saloon out by such a ma.
jority that the liquor element would
feel the emphatic disapproval and
move out.
Another significant statement was
made by Mr.. Knapp. That the vi
cious and criminally inclined resi-
dents Of these towns always left for
saloons were voted out. and many 81
them hoped that North Yakima
, would be under the license system
for some time to come and were
making arrangements to move over
if the vote here on November 9Th
resulted in a saloon victory. Every
man who votes for the saloon, just
to that extent invites the gamblers
, and low class of other sections to the
city.
The fear that grass may grow in
the streets Of your city is the pro-
phecy made by men who wish to
retain the saloon. This is meres
bosh-the only path that will b.
grass grown is the way leading te

True, these and similar exhortations
have been made by the Lords people
from time immemorial. And yet the
present proclamation is different from
all others in that it proclaims, 1.-The
time is at hand" "The Kingdom Of
Heaven is at hand"' Not an earthly
kingdom with an earthly king; not a
papal kingdom eXhorting the world to
righteousness in the name of the Lord.
eXhorting to godliness! But the real
Kingdom of Gods dear Son so long
promised, so long prayed for, is at
hand! 1t will be Spiritual Empire,

earthly agency Israel restored to Di-
vine favor. Men will not say, Lo. here,

to bless and empowered to punish.
The Great Prince of Light, the King
in his glory, with the elect as his
Bride on the heavenly, spiritual, in

glorious majesty of his righteous rule
will be manifest in the judgments

 THE sAcAToA PLANTS
Government Canal for Indians ls
 Lengthening Steadily.

J. D. Stannard. one of the staff of engineers connected with the local branch of the reclamation service. came over from Phoenix yesterday morning for the purpose of visiting the pumping plants and canal project at Sacaton. After spending yesterday and today inspecting the plants. he will return to Phoenix this evening.
 This is the first visit of Engineer Stannard to the Sacston country since November. and as a matter of course great progress has been made by the reclamation forces in the field since that time. The completed pumping plants are fully meeting all .xpects i. tions and delivering heavy streams of water constantly. The underground supply seems inexhaustible.
 The government canal for the In- dians is lengthening steadily. and its completion will be matter of a short time only. The canal heads into the Giia river. It Is being built to sup piement the pumping plants by de- fivering flood water to the land lying under it.
 Mir Stannard returned recently from Denver with his son. who had suffered such severe injuries in football game as to make years rest obli- gatory

THE GREAT DIVIDE.

'The Great Divide" William Vaughn Moody's virile American play. which is to be presented at the Vance opera house Saturda" night, January 15. un- der the direction of Henry Miller. is generally acknowledged to be the greatest drama of western life yet written in the history of the Ameri- can stage. It tells of the strange woo ing of an eastern woman and an Ari- zona prospector. representing the con- fliot between the free and untram- melled spirit of the west and the rigid conventionality and uncompro- missing traditions of the east. The play possesses great literary quality as well as a wealth of clever dialogue. replete with scintillating epigram, and is intensely dramatic withal. a rare combination indeed. Critics have been unprecedentedly unanimous in accord ing The Great Divide" the unstinted praise as being the best American TO- nance ever staged. After run of over 600 nights in New York, Mir Miller has at last been able to ar range a road tour for the play which has several times been booked for presentation here. but the dates had to be cancelled owing to the long continued success in the metropolis Prices s1.50 and s1.

MESA DEPARTMENT

 Exc|TEs INHABITANTS
AS It Flies Over Mesa With Lights
 All Cleaning.

An airship passed over Mesa Tues ing suddenly overhead with lights gleaming fore and aft and motor pur- ring softly. Because of the darkness of the night and the conflicting glare of the street lamps. it was impossi- ble to tell whether the ship was of the aeroplane or dirigible type. only a black bulk was outlined against the sky. moving swiftly and steadily southeastward toward the coast. The tail lights were visible for at least ten minutes. They finally disappeared behind clump of trees in the dis tance.
 The airship is believed to be the one which passed over Mesa Saturday night going toward the northeast. Dr. Drane and w. x. Stevenson saw 1t then. but the incident was so unusual that little general credence was at tached to it.
 On this latter occasion, however. numbers of people along Main street saw the strange spectacle. comment ed eXcitedly thereon. and accosted ut ter strangers to know if they. too. had seen the dark ship floating through the airwa-s
 Strangely enough. after the airship went over Saturday night travelling like the limited express behind time. nothing further was heard of it. No one outside of Mesa saw 1t, apparently.
 Varied eonjectures have been made concerning the night prowler An air ship bound for Los Angeles and avia- ton week. some say; others Told that it is the product of some local inventor unknown to fame. testing his machine quietly in the darkness of the night.

QUESTIONS pERlc|TY
 OF MISS RH0OA BEEBE
Dan MecauIey Denies Connection With
 the Daley Affair.

Miss Rhoda Beebe, of elopement fame is. to put it mildly. an ardent prevaricator in the opinion of one Dan McCauley. whopn she drew into prom inence in relating the story of her travels after her recent return to Mesa. MT. McCauley denies singly and severally all the statements which Miss Beebe made in connection with him and, further. takes a pot shot at an afternoon paper for printing the same.
 The above information. and more in the same tenor. came to Mesa yester- day in letter written by McCauley from Cutter. New Mexico. to w. N. Stevenson. He says he knew nothing of the elOpement of the couple until he reached the station at Tempe and saw them there. He knew of Daley's contemplated departure previously. and in order to avoid his companion ship had said that he himself would not start until the day following.
 T wrote from Maricopa. you re- member" says McCauley. saying that the couple were on their way to Fl Paso. Martin was with me when I posted the letter Daley and the girl were together all the way to Fl Paso and from there they took hack to Juarez. I saw them no more after that until the following Sunday.
 '1 don't know what the girl meant by saving enticed her to Ei Paso. There is absolutely no truth fin 1t. and I'll come back to Mesa and prove 1t if necessary"
 McCauley further stated that Daley had said he was going ,o Mexico to meet a man by the name of Pomeroy and go with him to South America.
 In connection with the foregoing. it Is stated. although not quite au- thentically. that Mss Beebe has left Mesa and gone to Fish Creek.

Mrs. O. P. Dawley died yesterday morning about o'clock after a pro- tracted illness. Her sister. Mrs. Au- brey. had arrived from California and was present at the end, and Mrs. Cap tain Baird arrived on the morning train. Although it was known that Mrs. Dawley was seriously i'll, hopes were entertained for her ultimate re- covery.
 Mrs. Dawley was a daughter of c. A. Tweed, one of the pioneer judges of the district court, who died a nnm- Der of years ago. The funeral will be held at the residence at 1 o'clock to- day and interment will be in Phoe- nix.
