A BIG SHIPMENT

The raising of cantaloupes in Ari-
IONA and the Imperial Valley, Cali
ifornia, is rapidly becoming a big
business for the farmers, and one
that is paying good profits.
We learn that one day last week.
a train of 100 cars, containing over
], 100000 pounds of cantaloupes.
was shipped East from the Imperial
Valley. And the big feature of
this large shipment was the fact
that the entire load was the result
of one days work picking the
melons.
Here is something for the farm
ers Of the ella valley to consider.
We know we can raise cantaloupes
and can make good crop, and that
our melons can be shipped in good
season to secure the best prices in
the Eastern markets.
Why not make cantaloupes a reg
ular crop of the ella valley?
Graham guardian. [volume] (Safford, Ariz.) 1895-1923, 1911-06-30
CANTALoUPE MOVEMENT
Shipments from Imperial Valley
Will Exceed 1000 Cars

The big cantaloupe crop in I'm.
perial valley is rapidly being cleaned
up. The first estimates were for
1000 cars. Railroad men think
now 1900 cars or more may be
shipped before the season closes.
The average is running 80 or 80
cars day at present. The biggest
day was Thursday, June 18th, when
l4l cars were sent out.
The service for handling the crop
is perfect. The Pacific Fruit Ex-
press, through E. A. Coons, district
agent. Fred Howard, assistant, and
the Southern Pacific, through C. F.
Donnatin, trainmaster, have handled
the big crop, which on account of
being three weeks late was rushed,
to the perfect satisfaction of ship
pers. Total shipments up to Fri
day. June 23d, have been 1850 cars.
Two-thirds of the crop has been
shipped from Brawley, the balance
from FL Centre and Heber.
W. G. Faucet and the Edmund
Peyeke Co. are operating from
Heber. Gibson Fruit Co.. Ferd-
helm and George Middendorf Co..
of Chicago; Mutual Distributing.
Los Angeles; Lyon Bros. Co., New
York, and Sam Hall, of Chicago,
who is handling H. Woods account,
are shippers from Brawley and
Crutchfcld & Voolfolk and Ameri-
can Nile Co.. from FL Centre.

Although the Southern Pacific
Company pays more than half of
the total railroad taxes of the State
of California, the figures given out
by the board of equalization of Cal
ifornia do not include all of the taxes
paid by the Southern Pacific Com
pany. The major part of the South
ern Pacific mileage is in California,
but good many hundred miles are
located in other States. According
to the last annual report of the
Southern Pacific its taxes was little
more than four and one half million
dollars a year, more than SIP, 900 a
day. Judging from the new meth
DDS recently adopted for the taxing
of corporations, the Southern Pa
cific taxes will reach figure close
to $5,000,o00 in 1911.

CAMERON, THE TRAITOR

The Senate Committee on Terri
tories decided at its meeting Satur-
day to report favorably the Flood
resolution admitting Arizona and
New Mexico to Statehood.
This action by the republican CON-
mittee of the republican Senate
must have been very Disappointing
to Ralph Cameron, whom the peo-
pie of Arizona were fooled into
electing delegate to Congress in the
belief that he would work honestly
in favor Of Statehood.
Instead of using every effort to
secure Statehood for Arizona. Cam
eron has devoted his time in the
House and before the Senate Com
mittee on Territories to defeat the
will of the people of Arizona, even
going so far as to say that Presi-
dent Taft would not sign the bill on
account of his opposition to the re-
call. When pressed by the mem
bers of the committee to state how
he knew so positively that President
Taft would not sign the bill, Cam
eron remained silent. ! He could not
tell.
The committee allowed Cameron
to proceed to a conclusion in his
argument in opposition to the con-
stitution adopted by the people of
Arizona, and when he finished. sew
eral members of the committee pro-
ceeded to show up Cameron in his
true colors. When they got through
with Cameron he was a sorry look
ing dog, and is now the laughing
stock of the people of Washington.
Dear Ralph may continue his fight
against Statehood by trying to in
fiuence senator's to vote against the
Flood resolution, but it is hardly
possible that any attention will be
paid to him by senators or repre-
sentatives for the remainder of the
time he spends in Washington draw
ing a salary he does not earn.
Cameron has proved horrible
and the people of Arizona
realize how unfortunate it was for
them to send him as a representa-
tive to Washington. They can only
hope now that he will do nothing
more to disgrace himself. He is a
sorry spectacle. indeed, and has lost
all prestige and influence in Con-
gress by his traitorous acts in trying
to defeat the constitution adopted
by the people of Arizona.
