 AcOrding to advices received in Prescott yesterday, Captain John T. Hogue, for nearly thirty years a resi- dent of Apache county, has passed away. his death taking place at Wash ington, D.

He left Arizona some time ago to nave surgical operation performed and never rallied He was buried at Ar hngton, the military cemetery of the nation, serving in the Civil war with an Ohio regiment and reaching the rank of captain of infantry.
 Captain Hogue was well known in Prescott and was a frequent visitor in late years. During his early resi- denee in Arizona, he came into prom thence as the paymaster of the fam Prescott and Santa Fe. After the collapse of that line, he located in Apache county, and acquired con siderable property. He was aften selected for political honors, filling the office of legislator, was appointed clerk of the district court, elected probate judge, and took a prominent part in the general affairs of the territory and his county. In every position he was highly regarded for his official integrity.
 Captain Hogue, until the breaking out of the Civil war was a practical printer, and an incident in his day as a craftsman, often recalled, was his association with Whitelaw Reid in the publication of weekly paper in the Ohio village. where he was employed as the foreman. He "jump- ed the position when the war slogan was sounded and not until the con fiet was over was he forgiven by his then struggling employer. Several times in later years, or after he came to Arizona, the old employer and his emplOye had frequent meet ings. and on each occasion, the journ- alistic past was referred to in pleas ant eerms.

 Herself With Cardui.

Belton, Tex.-In a letter written from this place. Mrs. Ethel Moncrief says: "I suffered with womanlY troubles ever since I first entered wo- manhood. The doctors failed to help, so began with Cardui. From the first, could see good results, and I kept on taking 1t. I was relieved of all my dreadful suffering. Cardui has built up my system, and my friends are all surprised to see the good results I obtained. Cardui Is as good a doctor as any woman needs. It can't be beat. cannot praise Cardui too highly"
 For more than half century, Cardui has been used successfully to prevent unnecessary pains caused by womanly troubles, such as headache, backache, side ache, dragging sensations. etc.

 Whether seriously sick, or simply weak and ailing. take Cardui.
 It helped a million others.
 It will help you, too.

USE ONLY DRY LAND
 SEED IN PLANTING
Declares Dr. Cooke to Irrigationists And Others at an Enthusiastic
 Meeting in Kirkland
(Erom Saturdays Daily.)

anee of using only seed that had been raised by the so-called dry farm sys- term. He said that this warning was directed at the irrigationists as well as the dry farmers and that thirty years experience had taught him, that, for lands such as those in Kirk land valley and other Yavapai dry lands that he had seen, seed so raised only should be utilized; that the re- suit in bulk and quality of crop would surprise the stoutest antagonist of the system.
 He begged the farmers to make the most of their soil possibilities, re- marking that a maximum crop once every two years, to be secured by deep blowing and conserving the moisture in the soil until renewed rains came, was well worth waiting for and would reward the farmer far more than Unit or miss' crop every year. When the soil had de- rived humus from the bearing of crops, he said, was time enough to commence yearly cropping.
 Tonight, at 7:3O o'clock at the High School auditorium. Dr. Cooke will give a lecture on the possibilities Yavapai possesses for dry farming on a large scale; and. while he would say nothing specific for publication, prior to this meeting, he intimated that conditions in this county, with view to that end, were no worse than he had been able to overcome in Wyoming. Although tonight s meeting will be held under the aus pices of the Chamber of Commerce, everyone interested in the subject is invited and efforts will be made to seat the larnest nnm her nnssihla

 most difficult feat of engineering con
 struction will be attempted in the
 Marshall canyon when the $1 ,000, 900
 contract, let by the North Coast Rail
 road company to Watson, Flagg &
 Standifer company of Portland, Ore,
 Is undertaken. It is proposed to build
 an entire new line through the can yon, involving great amount of rock work and a feature of the con tract is the stipulation that the pres ent Northern Pacific tracks and the Spokane, Portland Seattle rails which traverse the canyon, shall not be disturbed while the new work is under way.
 The contract calls for work through the Marshall canyon, including eight cen miles of rOadbed building from the west city limits of Spokane to Cheney, Washington.
 Robert E. Strahorn, viee-president of the Washington-Or Oregon Railroad and Navigation company, had many conferences with high officials of the Northern Pacific and Spokane, Port land & Seattle Railroad companies to gain the right-of-way through the Marshall canyon, which was well taken up by the two roads.
 G. M. Standifer, who negotiated the deal for his firm, said the contract called for most difficult work for the entire distance of eighteen miles, this being especially so through the Marshall pass, adding:
 "We will establish an office in Spokane at once and the entire work win be handled from here. We will lave five steam shovels at work be- tides many dinky trains and other equipment. Our company will es abhsh a shop somewhere along the inc of construction where all tool. ViA be sharpened, ears built and gen ral repairs made.

BIG FTNANCIER FAVORS
 FEDERAL SUPERVISION

CHICAGO, H., April 12.-George
 NJ. Reynolds, president of the Con
 tinental and Commercial National
 Bank, declares that public regulation
 of public service corporations has
 come to stay. MT. Reynolds regard,
 governmental supervision as inevit-
 able and necessary. Conservatism
 would be fostered, ne said, by the
 publicity necessary attending super
 vision of railroads and public utility
 corporations.
 Mr Reynolds views regarding
 railroad and industrial corporations
 went further into the problem of
 corporation control than did Presi- dent Theodore \. Vail of the Ameri- can Telephone Telegraph company in his declaration recently that public control of public utilities has come and come to stay. Experience also has demonstrated that this super vision should stop at control and . regulation and not manage 'oper- ate nor dictate what the manage ment of operation should be beyond the requirements of the greatest eff cieney and economy" said MT. Vail. This statement by President Vail re- ferred particularly to the class known as "public service corporations.
 MT. Reynolds said: "There is no doubt about the fact that capital has not always been handled cOnservat- i ively and economically in the past. | This must be remedied. The bank of | whien I am. president has under its control a quarter of a billion dollars, md five times a year must let the public know through its published statements just what it is doing. In lddition to these examinations by federal Bank Examiners there is an by the Chicago Clearing House and a voluntary public state nent by the bank itself
 Supervision necessarily insures ,reater conservatism. I am con -ineed that reasonable national su- 'ervisiOn is not far off; these state vide discussions, laws and theories 1hieh are interesting every thinking American today are a natural devel- pment in our financial history. Sent ment is slowly and surely forming 1 long that line, those of Us who have tudied the problem know that pub l ic utility corporations will be super ( ised by the government eventually. l
 "The fine dividing line between upervisiOn and control is where the ' est thinkers will have to get to- ! ether. It would not seem right for { he federal authorities to say to the l ailroads just what they can do year D and year out; that would be talk l az away from the railroads the very t ower which has made them the t reatest developers of America. If he railroads in the past had been starded through too stringent legis- V Ition in entering territory which was f barren, great sections of V ne West would not have been open ! and the stocks of those roads T.

 Despite the cold blasts that blew over the valleys, large crowd had gathered at the hotel when the ex- pert took the floor From II o'clock until train time question followed question and Dr. Cooke finally was obliged to take refuge in the train to escape the bewildering succession of interrOgations.
 Interesting testimonials were heard as to crops that had been raised in the neighborhOod, on lands, the dry est of the dry, and with little effort on the part of the growers to keep within the teachings of Dr. Cooke s system.
 One farmer said that he had raised over two tons of hay to the acre last year, one of the dryest. most dis heartening of recent agricultural years.
 Another embryo dry farmer in the Kirkland valley confessed to having raised a ton of corn on one acre, with only the trouble of planting.
