C. H. oAvIosoN's WATER WORKS
 RECORD

Editor Arizona Republican:
 Sir: A great deal d publicity hal been given to the fact that MIDDAY idson made a great effort to secur' municipal ownership of the watel works for the city. There were hun dreds of citizens who took an activ' interest in this matter. scores of whom were just as active as MT. Davidson although I regret to say that the Ari zona Gazette and it's present proprie tor, c. H. Akers. were using their bes efforts to aid Moses H. Sherman tf defeat municipal ownership of watel works.
 After the voting of bonds there wa, a commission appointed composed o Simon Oberfelder, Charles DeMund, F NJ Mognett. Geo. II. N. Luhrs and Yer non Clark. The duties of this com mission was to investigate the water works plant, find out what property the company owned. ascertain the size and value of the mains and make 2 detailed report of all, of the property owned by the water company Mir Davidson took very active part ir getting the council to rescind its ac- tion in appointing this commission
 The water company had been de- feated in every court in Arizons. in cluding the supreme court The city was in position to make practically it's own terms for the purchase of the water company's property. At this time c. H. Davidson took the lead in movement to get the city council without investigation of the property to be purchased to pay Moses H. Sher- man the great sum of $150.000 of the taxpayers money for their plant.
 What did the city secure for Its s150.000 spent with the approval of MT. Davidson? A lot of old junk. All of the mains purchased have since been abandoned. all of the machinery has. since been discarded as useless and all that remains today to show for the price paid is little plot of ground and an old worn out stand pipe. both together worth not to ex- ceed s25.000. The taxpayers are pay ing interest and v.ill pay interest how ever. on the $15O.O00 for fifty years
 An inquiry at the city water depart ment will secure for any citizen that information that all the old mains and purchased from Sher- man have been abandoned and that the sl50.000 paid for the plant was thrown away.

 With two propositions on hand by the city calling for the expenditure of $700.000, part for a sewerage system and part for a municipal light plant, and the possible purchase of the pres- ent systems Qight and sewer) from their present owners. private corpora tions. would like to ask all citizens of the second ward if it is wise to elect to the council a man who aided Moses H. Sherman to unload upon the city without appraisement or investi- gation the old and worthless water works plant for sl50.00O.
 In the Sherman transaction the city lost $125.000 on the advice of David son. How much of the s70O,00O to be expended by the city council of Phoe- nix at an early day will be lost ii Mir. Davidson makes the transaction? :?

OUTLOOK IS GOOD
Prospects for Winning High
School Team Get Better
Every Day.
BENSON BACK IN GAME
Was Star Reserve Man Last Year
Team Goes to Monmouth
Saturday.

Despite Saturdays defeat at the
hands of the Iowa City team the
prospects of the local high school
football team are brighter today
than they have been before this sea-
son. Saturdays game showed the
local boys that they were the equal
of their opponents and they are de-
termined that no more games shall
be lost after they have them safely
tucked away as was the case Satur-
day. Bert Benson, who was the
start of the second team backfieTd
last season, has returned to school
and he will probably get a place on
the team.
1t is probable that several other
"R. l." men will be back in the
squad before long, in which case the
prospects for the remainder of the
season will be frightened consider
ably.
To Watch Davenport Game.
Next Saturday the team goes to
Monmouth to play and a good dele
cation of rooters is planning to ac-
company the boys from here. The
majority of the high school football
followers, however, are planning on
seeing the game in Davenport be-
tween the high school and st. Am
brose college. AS st. Ambrose plays
the locals later on, the game Satur-
day will aid in determining the rela-
tive merits of the Davenport and
Rock Island high school teams re-
gardless of the fact that they do
not play this year. st. Ambrose
will make an effort to defeat the
high school. something the colleg-
ians have never accomplished. In
asmuch as a former Rock Island
high school player is coaching ST.
Ambrose, more than ordinary inter-
est for Rock Islanders attaches to
the result.

LIQUID CURES ECZEMA
WHERE SALVES FAIL

In regard to skin diseases, med
ical authorities are now agreed on
this:
Don't imprison the disease germs
In your skin by the use of greasy
salves, and thus encourage them to
multiply. A true cure of all eczema
tous diseases can be brought about
only by using the healing. agents in
the form of a liquid.
WASH THE GERMS OUT.
A simple wash: A compound of
Oil of Wintergreen, Thymol, and
other ingredients as combined in the
d. D. D. Prescription. This pene-
trates to the disease germs and de-
stroys them, then soothes and heals
the skin as nothing else has ever
done.
A % cent trial bottle will start
the cure and give you instant re-
lief.

the benefit of a Sunday game, the
commission put a provision in the
rules that if none of the first four
games receipts equals those of the
Sunday game in Chicago, in case the
latter game is played, that the play
ers' proportionate share shall be
made on the basis of the Sunday
game in Chicago.
The commission also called atten-
ton to the rules of the series, which
forbid the teams to give any part of
the worlds series proceeds to for
mer teammates who have been re-
leased to clubs in the same league
this season and prohibits the giving
of bonuses by the owners to the
players of the two clubs.
In case any of the games are post
poned by weather conditions, the
succeeding games are to be moved
ahead, except that in any event the
game scheduled for Sunday, Oct. %,
is to be played in Chicago.
