lands Of its delta, so that part of them
are in Mexico and part in Arizona and
California While the Colorado over
flows its banks near its mouth and
sends destroying current through the
Imperial valley flooding California
farms, the permission Of Mexico must
be sought and obtained before the es-
cape Of the COlOrado's water can be
checked. The shifting Of the boundary
a little way southwark would cure
these Inconvenience, add a narrow but
desirable strip to Arizona and CalifOr-
mia and allow Arizona to have sea
port on the Gulf of California and not
be a wholly inland state.
such port would have a special
value after the opening OF the Panama
canal, and would develop an important
Mexican coast trade from Arizona
Mexico needs money more than it needs
this strip of land which is of little
real value, and it might at some time
be induced to make trade"
Water Complications.
Concerning the above comment the
Phoenix Republican says:
with the American government the
main reason for purchasing from Mex
leo the strip mentioned is suggested in
the complications surrounding the
water question on the lower Colorado.
In order to protect the interests Of the
El Paso herald. (El Paso, Tex.) 1901-1931, 1911-11-17

ranchers in the Imperial valley it is
necessary to cOnfine the river to a
selected channel and much of the work
heretofore done for this purpose was
necessarily on Mexican soil. The water
delivered to the Imperial country must
at all times be conveyed through Mex
lean territory; and, as the Philadelphia
paper points out it is desirable that
the whole canal system on the lower
Colorado shall be in American terri
tory.
''The proposed purchase Of the strip
in question would furnish the simplest
solution of the difficulties which con-
front the two governments. As a pure
" incidental feature of this plan Ari-
iona would acquire seaport on the
Gulf of California, but the value of the
port to this state would be just as
great as If that were the primary OBJ
ject OF the negotiations. Indeed. the
value Of a seaport within Arizona
reached by rail from Phoenix, Tucson.
or other Arizona cities would be inesti-
mable. Nothing would so effectually
and satisfactorily settle the question
of transcontinental freight rates for
Arizona,
Probably the only serious difficulty
to be overcome in negotiations with
Mexico for our requirement of the ter
ritOry mentioned is the provision in
the Mexican constitution which de-
clares that 1t shall be treason for any
citizen of Mexico to propose the alien
alton of any portion Of Mexican terri
tory. But the Mexican constitution can
be easily amended, as president Diaz
demonstrated on more than on Oeca-
zion.
Mr. Cameron's idea is entirely prac-
teal, and regardless OF the results Of
the coming election the plan should be
pressed upon the attention Of the gov
eminent at Washington by the people
of this state"

HOW TO CURE
POISON

Contagious Blood Poison is a viru-
lent germ, and like most other bacte-
rial organisms is very difficult to kill
or destroy within the system. It
would therefore be useless to endeavor
to cure the disease with some strong
medicine intended to destroy the dis
eased blood cells and virus. The
proper way-the only way-is to
REMOVE the germs and poisons from
theblood by purifying the circulation.
Thousands have cured themselves of
this powerful disease by the use of
S. s. S., the greatest of all vegetable
blood purifiers. This is a medicine
of unquestioned ability in the treat
ment of Contagious Blood Poison.
For more than forty years it has been
prepared and sold as a cure for this
trouble, and not only its efficacy, but
the fact that it does not contain a par
ticle of mineral, or other harmful
drug, should be an inducement to any
CONTIGUOUS Blood Poison sufferer to
begin its use. S. s. S. goes right
down into the circulation, and re-
moves every trace of the destructive
virus. It heals all sores, stops falling
hair, and by cleansing and enriching
the blood, soon clears the body Of
every symptom. S. S. S. cures to
stay cured; there is no future breaking
out Of the disease. Home Treatment
book and any medical advice free.
S. S. S. is sold at drug stores.

The plan Of Ralph Cameron and 10
val A. Smith to have the United States
buy enough Mexican territory to give
Arizona a harbor on the headwaters Of
the Gulf of Lower California is meet
ing with strong approval in all parts
of the United States. Eastern papers
are commenting upon the value of such
a project to the whole of the United
States and western papers are enthus-
iastic over the prospects Of great good
for the west and southwest. Concern
ing this project the Philadelphia Press
makes the following comment:
Arizona is not so much absorbed
with the idea of becoming a state at
an early day as to be inaccessible to
other ambitions. It's people are begin
ming to think that the southern bound
airy Of the territory is inconveniently
and unnaturally located and that IT
ought to be transposed to the south
ward so as to give Arizona a seaport

States as well as for Arizona
