The Tep le Extension.

It is reported that the Southern Pacific of Mexico has completed ifs roadbed to within few kilometers of the City of Topic and that the end of the track is about forty.6ve kilometers distant. A deep cut near the present terminus is delay ing tracklaying at present, but it is expected to finish it so track laying can resume and the rails reach Topic early in October. Probably train service to that city will be inaugurated about the first of November.

A Busy Farmer.

Monday THE OASIS man visited at the Balch place, short distance south of Magdalena, MT. A. c. Dominguez, the Californian who was at Nogales some months ago with some fine breeding stock, awaiting the settlement of the troubles in Mexico, and found him very busily engaged in pushing the work on the place of which he took possession about the first of June. In that time he has plowed and planted eighty acres of land seed ing thirty to barley for hay and fifty in beans; and both crops have got a fine start. Unless something untoward happens Mir. Dominguez will do well from the eighty acres. And he has gone at it right. The ground he cut up with a disk culti. vator, blowing, crossplowing and narrowing, thoroughly pulverizing

Pursuant to adjournment a week before the Nogales Town Board met Wednesday evening of the present week to receive and act upon a resolution that at the pre- ceding meeting Town Attorney Frank J. Duffy had been instruct ed to prepare calling an election for an issue of bonds to provide municipal water system and sewer system.
 With the exception of Trustee Van Mourick there were present all the members of the board, and Mayor A. H. Noon presided. Be- side the board there were present quite a number of interested citi- zens and taxpayers.
 The resolution as drawn by the town attorney was presented and read by the Clerk, Mir. Carl M. Rathbun. As drawn it provided for an election on the twenty-frst day of August, and an issue of $150,000 in bonds for a water sys- tenn, $50,000 for sewer system. After the resolution had been read the Mayor asked for a discussion of the proposition and the provis. ions set forth in the resolution, calling first from expressions from the board, and afterward from citizens present. In response to direct request for his views in the matter Mir. k. Titcomb, of Roy < Titcomb, spoke substantially as follows:
 Mir. Mayor and Members of the NOgales Town Board: l think that we are all pretty well agreed that municipal water system and a sewer system would be of great benefit to the town, and both should be provided if they can be estab- Iished successfully and at not too great cost. 1 find the greatest fear among taxpayers to a bond issue at this time is that the earn lngs of such municipal system would not be sufficient to meet the interest on the bonds, and other fixed charges, leaving a deficit which with redemption of the bonds at maturity will have to be borne by the taxable property of the town; particularly if there is to be maintained an active competition against the system already estab. lShed and in operation. Such a competition is bound to result in aeayy loss to the town, heavy loss to the present water company, and Ia the end to it's ruin and complete animation. For one l do not 0elleve that the town is sufficient y wealthy to stand any such loss: Qo not believe that 1t should be 'uOIected to the loss which would result from elimination of the water company without adequate VOmpensation. l believe that the water company and its present ssyS'em can be bought out by the town and made a part of the 1@unlclpal system at less cost nish IS proposed to put into a new "a'er system to compete with it. ana l think that some effort anooId be made to frame up a p'oIect upon those lines before oI ooIIu'mlttlng the town to anything 0'se' In fact I fear that unless

BOND ELECTION CALLED.

mand the votes necessary to ensure adoption of the system and sale of the bonds. And even were the bonds voted l believe they could be sold to better advantage were provision made to take over the present system.
 Mr. Archer, the engineer who submitted to the board estimates of the cost of a water system evil dently is we'll posted in his line, and he has given the board no doubt valuable information; but with all due regard to his superior knowledge l do not consider it necessary to install system so ex- pensive. And, as 1 understand it, the proposition is to adopt and in- stal the most expensive and costly of the several systems that he gave in his report, at an estimated cost of $135, 900 or $145,000. Without doubt that most expensive system would be more economical in the long run; but sometimes people and even municipalities are pro- hibited from adopting the most economical proposition in the end on account of their poverty prevent ing their meeting the larger in- itial cost. NOgales 1 consider in much the same situation. With the present tax roll the burden of the cheaper plant will not be so great as would be that of the most costly plant, even though at the end of thirty or forty years the latter would take less money from the pockets of the people. The greatest concern is what will have to be paid right now, and in the next ten or twelve years, not what will have to be paid within thirty or forty years.
 MT. Archer's plans and estimates, 1 understand call for ten-inch cast iron pipe the entire distance. Now were Nogales close to the source of supply of cast iron pipe, with a cheap freight rate, the cast iron pipe would, perhaps, be far more desirable, even at a cost consider ably greater than steel pipe; but that cast iron pipe will have to be transported a long distance, at heavy freight rate, and that will make its cost much greater than would be that of steel pipe, which is much lighter per running foot. Mir. Archer's figures 1 understand were $90,000 for the cast iron pipe. We have made some figures on these things, and 1 find that the steel pipe would cost about half that sum. Then there is no need for 10-inch pipe the entire dis tance. A reservoir with a capacity of one million gallons can be put at some convenient place on the top of the divide, with a ten-inch pipe to that, and the pump at the river need not have to work all the time to fill it. When it is filled the pump can be stopped for part of the day or night. And the water, flowing by gravity through a smaller pipe, say six-inch, costing a great deal less than a 10-inch one, would be drawing water all the entire twenty-four hours, into the reservoir just above town, from which it could flow into the service mains. With such a pumping plant as would be installed both reservoirs could be filled within

FORWARD MOVEMENT On
Active Campaign of Special
Work in the First Methodist
Episcopal Church

The forward movement campaign
| in the First Methodist Episcopal
church is going on with great inter
est, the few nights OF meeting cul-
minating with a big family gathering
| in which every interest Of the church
was gone over as relates to the spirit
ual work and TO the financial plans
| Of the church
| Great interest was manifest in the
matter CT the building fund Of the
church. A report was made as to
the status OF the subscription, show
ing that the debt of the church has
been reduced to $24, 900 The sub
g." ipti0n taken at the time of dedica-
tion has been carefully handled, but
....e s4l such subscriptions, there
have been the items Of interest, tAe
natural shrinkage and the other eX-
penses which come in the carrying
on OF an enterprise like thls 80 that
looking the matter in the face from 4
business standpC int the trustees felt
that some methCd must be devised to
establish a sinking fund to take care
OF the bonded Indebtedness and in
terest Such plan was proposed
ana started at the meeting Wednes-
day night--a plan similar TO II build
and loan association being suggested
with shares running one hundred
months, with the payment of one dot
lar per month on the share This
plan was enthusiastically endorsed
by the meeting and one hundred
shares were subscribed for by those
nrescnt at the meeting. such great
interest was taken in the matter that
the trustees feel sure that it will be
possible to secure subscrip
tons for at least one hundred and fit
tv more shares. which will place the
church on very solid ground finan
cially.
The entire community is deeply in
terested in work Of the First church
f6r in the light Of recent movements
in the bringing Of the university and
other interests here, Guthrie recog
nizes that to the First Methodist |
church she owes great hope Of com
mercial revival II will no doubt be |
a privilege TO many to join with the |
church in providing for the payment
Of the bonded Indebtedness thus as
suring the continued success OF this |
splendid institution.
The pastor OF the church, on ac- |
count Of many announced events be-
twenn this and the Christmas holt |
days, announced last night that the
s1ecial meetings for revival would be
scontinued until the first of Janu-
ary, at which time a great campaign
will be conducted in the spiritual in
terest OF Guthrie.

Simple Economies Sometimes Overlooked

In her anxiety TO set good table,
many housewife often incurs needless
expense. For example: in the making
OF pastry, butter will often be used,
which, at its cheapest, IS expensive and
gives TO better results than can be OBJ
tained by the use of Cottolene-the
vegetable-oil cooking fat; yet Cottolene
costs about the same as lard, and one
third less is required than either but
ter or lard Lard Is still more expcn-
sive because It contains hog fat and
leads to indigestion. You can save on
your doctors bills, as we'll as on your
cooking fat, BY using Cottolene in all
your shortening and frying.
