ELECTION ORDINANCE
 CERTAINLY APPLIES
Believed That Gov. Sloan Was MiSQuoted by Phoenix
 Paper on Subject

A statement credited to Governor Sloan by the Arizona Democrat would indicate that the governor was in doubt as to whether Election Ordinance No. ?, provided by the constitutional convention. would ap- ply at the first state election or not
 It is barely possible that the governor was misquoted, as it would seem there could be no ques' ton of the application of the cleo ton ordinance provided by the con- yention under the resolution provid- ing for the admission of the terri tory. That resolution expressly pro vides that the election in Arizona shall be held under the constitu- tional election ordinance in the fol- lowing provision of the Flood-Smith resolution, which was received by the Daily International from Wash ington today:
 The president is authorized and directed to certify the adoption of this resolution to the governor of each territory as soon as practicable after the adoption hereof. and each of said governors shall issue his lproclamaticn for the holding of the | first general election as provided ! for in the constitution of New Mex Iico heretofore adopted and the elee- ! ton ordinance numbered two adopt led by the constitutional convention of Arizona respectively, and for the lsubmission 10 a vote of the electors ! of said territories of the amend ments of the constitutions of said proposed states. respectively. herein set forth in accordance with the terms and conditions of this join. resolution. The results Of said cleo tions shall he certified to the presi- dent by the governor of each oi said territories; and if the terms and conditions of this joint resolu- ton shall have been compiled with ] the proclamation shall immediately issue by the president announcing the result of said elections so ascer- tained, and upon the issuance oi said proclamation the proposed stats or states so complying shall bs deemed admitted by congress into

DRY FARMERS ERRORS
Many Failures Directly Traceable
 to Lack of Knowledge.
Flow, Packer and Harrow Must Be Used Often and Thoroughly to Catch and Retain Moisture
 Falls During Winter.

The great majority of failures from dry farming the past season and di- rectly traeeable to lack of knowl- edge as to the requirements of the crops. The greatest mistake was made in the preparation of the soil and until this part of the business becomes thoroughly understood the settlers might as we'll give up the idea of dry farming and go into the chicken business. says the Denver Field and Farm. A slipshod method in preparing the seed bed is the first step toward failure. The blow. the packer and harrow must be used oft en and thoroughly. Flow the land in summer or fall as conditions will per init and blow as deeply as possible. When We first break the virgin sod we can seldom blow deeper than two and one-half to three inches. but after that we can gradually increase this depth to eight or ten inches.
 The object of blowing deep in sum mer or fall is 10 catch and retain all the moisture possible that will fall during the winter and spring and thus have a large reservoir of loose soil to retain the water. If the precipi- tation Is heavy enough during this period to thoroughly i'll the soil with moisture, disk and harrow the land as soon as soil conditions win per nit in the spring. 4 crop may then be planted with some prospect of sue cess. In exceptionally dry years 1t will be found necessary to summer fallow the land and seed it a year later. On level land where the wind blows a great deal and is apt to carry the snow .off of the fields. a method often practised to great advantage is to blow deep furrows across the Held every ten or twelve feet in opposite direction to the prevailing winds The snow is driven and held in these furrows and lister can be used to burst out these rows.
 The roller and harrow all should be used freely. There are upon the market a number of corrugated roll. CTS. One with deep corrugation is preferable. Never use the roller when the ground Is too moist oS when 1t can not be followed by the harrow. Many tendeTfoot farmers work the soil when 1t has a tendency to stick and this is a bad policy wherever it is done. but it means ruin if done at all In the semi-arid region. After ev. cry rain, just as soon as the soil is in working condition. run over 1t with a harrow so as to break the crust
 Small grain can be narrowed to ad. vantage until it is four inches high When doing this set the teeth back ward at an angle of forty-flve degrees and run crosswise with the drill rows. All the work done upon the ! fields should be with the one end in 1 yiew-that of conserving moisture i The moisture lost from the soil through neglect means a proportion ate decrease in the crop. A practise ! that Is quite common is to follow the grain binder with a good sharp disc ] harrow, the object of this being to break up the hard surface of the soil and thus prevent evaporation. When small grain of spring seeding is to follow corn. thoroughly disc the ground as rapidly as the corn Is cut

 Following the receipt Of the com missloner's telegram, T. NJ. Gilmore president of the National Model Ii .eeEse League, issaed the following statement:
 "The commissioners figures con stituto terrific indictment of the prohibition movement as a failure and a farce. The movement that has spread prohibition over more than one-half of the map began in 1893. At that time the per capita consumption of liquor was about I6 1-2 gallons. and now after all the whitening of the map by the Antl-Saioon League it is 2229 gal lens. If the prohibition movemen, had not been checked m the pas. few months 1t would be difficult tc put an estimate on the increase thai would have been caused by addins 10 the territory in which people buy in wholesale lots and consume ae .eordingiy.

Garnet King Tells About Plans to Show Happiness Over
 Statehood
(p0uglas InternatIonall

kDousidS 1uteInatiOIldi.1
 Garnett King. assistant general freight and passenger agent of the Fl Paso & Southwestern system. and E. c. Mustain, travelling agent, passed thrc1gh this city this morn ling to Bisbee. returning here at noon. These gentlemen are making one of their regular business trips over the road and their presence here has no special significance.
 Both expressed their joy and qualification at the admission of Ari- zona and New Mexico az states and both predicted that the admission of the territories into the union would add to the prosperity not only of the new states. but to the entire Southwest. This is the sentiment. Mr. King said. that was behind the proposition to have a great state hood celebration in Fl Paso.
 "El Paso has been glad to see the initial demonstrations throughout the territories as an expression of their joy at admission as independ- eut states. I understand that other leelebrations are being planned in both New Mexico and Arizona, and Fl Paso will wish for the greatest 1 success on these occasions" said Mir. King, but as a neighbor El Paso has also determined to indulge ! in a publication of the glorious event which must mean so much 10 the advancement Of the very section to which our city must look in the future, as it has in the past, for a large portion of it's trade.
 El Paso has decided to promote Q grand celebration fin honor of the incoming new states, which will complete the galaxy which has been growing since the organization oi the government by the original thirteen colonies; complete so far as the contiguous territory of the United States is concerned. Five thousand dollars has already been subscribed to pay the expenses of this celebration and correspondence IS now being carried on with the 4 governors of the new states and of Texas to find what date would be convenient and least liable to inter- ifere with any event already set for other localities. The railroads will make special rates for this new state event in Fl Paso, as far east as Houston and perhaps as far west as Los Angeles; that matter is now being arranged by the proper com mittee
 Some Of us in Fl Paso have feared that the motives of El Paso in arranging for this celebration might be misconstrued, but from ex- pressions already received 1t is be- lieyed that all understand that Fl Paso is not seeking to do the eele- brating for the new states, but the event comes from a true sentiment of joy and best wishes for Arizona and New Mexico, and Fl Paso only seeks the opportunity to tender tC her friends in the new states a |, proper reception as an evidence oi good will"
 Messrs. King and Mustain will go
 from here tomorrow to Tucson ana . Phoenix on business in these cities
 Both expressed their qualification over the beginning of work on th, ! extension of the Southwestern tc Tucson. as that will materially en
 large their field of business.

cAMELs THRIVE IN ARIZONA
Desert-Brought Over to Make +.
Caravan Path.

Camels live in the African deserts
and in circus tents and-where else?
Where but in Arizona rather out-of-
the-way place, as far as most persons
are concerned, but nevertheless a part
OF the United States. There are about
sixty OF the circus beasts running
Wild, 1t Is said. and they keep pretty
we'll out of the way of mankind. That
Is not hard to do. There are great
plains in Arizona where men may
tramp or ride for days without find
ing water. 1t is desert place, with
no growing thing but hard, dry shrubs
that keep the earth from blowing into
mountains.
Sixty years ago herd of is camels
was brought to Arizona The United
States government brought them here
from Egypt to make caravan path
across the desert. This was before
the time of railroads. The camels
were good enough on the plains, but
as soon as they struck the rising
ground they were of no value. Rough
travel made their feet sore. Finally
they were all turned loose and forgot
ten. Nobody except a few frightened
Indians ever saw them, and they lived
quietly in the desert. Probably most
OF the original herd are dead now, but
their children are left in plenty. As
long as the camels stay in the desert
and do not come to inhabited regions
where there are horses to brighten,
there is no reason why they should
not live undisturbed.

MIsHAP TO "JAcK AND JILL"
Certain Familiar Mother Goose Rhyme
Is Revised by Copy Read In
Newspaper Office.

Good nonsense grows out of good
nonsense. A writer in the Chicago
Tribune imagines what "copy-read-
er" in a newspaper Office would do
with certain familiar Mother Goose
rhyme. The copy-reader, who has

Jack and Jill" somewhat as follows:
Jack, aged seven, son of Peter Jones,
298 Spring street. and Jill, aged six,
daughter of Mrs. Abigail Thompson,
296 Spring street, at eleven o'clock
yesterday morning walked up the hill
near the junction Of Blinker avenue
and Fordyce place.
For the purpose, as Jill afterward
explained, of procuring pail of water
although the improbability of their
finding water at the top of hill nat
urally suggests itself.
Jack, who was carrying the pail,
had started on the return trip, accom-
panied by the little girl, when he
stumbled, as is supposed, over some
obstacle in his path, and fell, his head
striking the ground with great VIC
lence. Doctor Slack, who was at once
summoned, pronounced the lads in
jury to be fracture of the anterior
portion of the Uranium, and ordered
his immediate removal to Blessington
hospital.
And Jill, who had fallen at the same
time, either through excessive fright
or In consequence of having stumbled
over the same obstacle, but had re-
ceived no serious injury. went home

TEACHES ART OF SWIMMING
Apparatus Invented by California
Man Makes Children Proficient
Without Aid of Water.


An apparatus to teach swimming
without water has been invented by
California man. The principle lies in
the fact that it will teach the proper
stroke because no other is possible,
and when this movement has become
habit the pupil will strike out in the
correct way as soon as he or she
hits the water. The novice lies on
padded support, which extends to her
knees. She grasps pair of pulleys
above her head, and attached to
these pulleys are cables. The cable
in her right hand is fastened to her
left ankle and that in her left hand
to her right ankle.
When the learners hands are
brought down to her sides in the arm
stroke her legs are made to kick
