MESA MELON GROWER
 IN ANOTHER CONTRACT
Correction of Statement Regarding the Seasons Arrangements.
 Mesa, Ariz., Mar. F, 1911.

To the Editor of The Republican.
 Sir:-I note in your paper of to- day that in an article entitled Can taloupe Growers Close Contract" you make the statement that the Gib- son Fruit company. and Clutchfield X WoOlfolk will handle the melon crop, or rather the cantalOupe crop for the Salt River Valley this sea son.
 This statement is incorrect and your valuable paper has been i'm posed on by some one who is not posted on the cantalOupe acreage of the Salt River Valley, and the ar engagements made for the marketing of the crop.
 We of the Mesa district are very jealous of our reputation in the can taloupe business. For years We were the only car lot shippers of Arizona cantaloupes, and since the beginning of the industry We have always been considered a factor in the eastern market during the month of July. We seriously object to being counted out of the Salt River Valley. for this year is no exception to the rule Mesa will again have the heavy acre age.
 The Mesa Melon Growers associa- tiOn have signed a contract for their seasons output with the Mutual Dis tributors Of Los Angeles, and the Mesa Fancy Canttaloupe Growers as- sociatiOn have signed theirs with John Nix & Co, of New York
 Your informant is again mistaken in thinking that the failure of our growers to receive big prices for their crop in 1908. was due to their not knowing how to care for the crop. for Mesa has some of the best can taloupe growers on earth. The real cause of that years partial failure was the fact of over production of melons in all sections of the United States. Colorado and California were overstocked and Mesa showed her supremacy by making the highest average per crate of any district in the western melon deal, on 19S cars shipped.
 Yours truly,
 B. VINEGAR

THE COMING VISIT OF COL. ROOSEVELT
Extensive Preparations Are Being
 Made for the Occasion.

A week from yesterday will be a big day for the people of Tempe for on that date they will be given the op- portunity to see and hear Theodore Roosevelt. The arrangements for his appearance here are pretty well per fected and the details are thus related by The Student:
 We are assured that Colonel Roose- welt has given final consent t0 the re- quest of MT. Matthews to speak to the students of the normal and the people on the normal campus on his return from the dedication of the big dam that bears his name According to schedule he will arrive at the school by automobile about o'clock, Monday. MarcfS20th. The plan is to have him address the students and people from the north steps of the main building IL is expected that he will speak ten or fifteen minutes and then go tO Phoe- nix He stipulated at first that the speaking must be done from the auto mobile and that there should be no hand shaking. IL is thought that he vii! readily acCede to the request to ascend the steps as this can be ar
 
 way through the crowd and SD lose so much time The dedication of the Roosevelt dam, which is the occasion of his coming to the valley, will take place on Saturday. The colonel and his party will return on Saturday to Mesa and remain with his son Archie at the Evans school until Monday The party will then stop at the normal on the way to Phoenix where they are to be given a reception by the water users association and the people Of Phoe- nix"
 President Matthews of the normal was asked yesterday for further in formation on the subject. He stated that within the next day or two he will be able to announce as near as possible the exact hour at which the colonel will arrive at the normal in order that he public may govern itself accordingly. IL has been arranged that the school children shall occupy the space directly in front of the steps where they will be able to see and hear well. They will be protected from the crowd by rope or wire fence. It is estimated that the colonel, speaking from the front steps. will be able to address not less than four thousand people and it is figured that there will he pretty close to that number on hand. Additional details will be published from time to time this week as they develop.

BOOSTERS PLAN
ANOTHER TOUR.
Back From Thousand-Milc Trip
Full of Enthusiasm Over
What They Did.
CHAMBER TO HEAR ABOUT 1T
Dabney Suggests Smoker Sc
That Business Men May
Be Told Of Results.

Completing a tour of moro than 1000
miles through North Carolina and Nir-
ginia, the Richmond Boosters arrived
home at 1880 O'Clock yesterday morning.
and Immediately detrained for their
homes or their Offices.
w. T. Dabney, bun.neas manager, re-
paired to his offices in the Chamber
OF Commerce. end later In the day
stated that he would ask the chamber
to give u public smoker, so that all
the merchants of the city COULD he told.
In the words Of the Boosters themselves,
u graphic story OF the surprising sue
cess of the trip. Both Mr. Dabney and
o. Herbert Funston. who accompanied
the Boosters as acting president OF the
Chamber OF Commerce. were emphatic
In declaring this gigantic excursion
into tho hearts of two States to have
been the greatest advertising scheme
ever undertaken TO promote the inter-
ests of the city and to promul8ate the
fact that Il is the gateway OF the
South, being. as Il Is, a grcatetranspor-
tatton centre. the home OF great bank
ing houEes and sourcc of manufac-
tured supplies.
Turned Over 10 Chamber.
The tour WAS trst planned by The
Times dispatch. which at nrst had de-
rided personally to conduct tho tour
But II grew to such proportions that
II was decided to turn the management
of the boosting excursion over TO the
Chamber of Commerce, and Mr.. Dab
ney took official charge.
More than 100 business men. all OF
them representatives of the biggest
business firms In the city. participated.
and carried with them tons of adver
tisins matter, which was distributed
ali along the route. The special Pull
man train stopped in q score of towns.
and in every town and in every city.
in every hamlet, the Boosters were re-
ceived by delegation from the bus
mess organizations. Mayors and other
city officials.
Mayor d. C. Richardson accompanied
the Boosters. and. with Mr.. Dabney.
MIR. Funston and others, was the prin.
cipal speaker on all occasions where
speeches were demanded and were in
order. Welcome In both States could
not have been more cordial nor more
sincare. Richmond has always been
known as a great city of the South.
but interest has generally centred
mainly around i, because OF ITS historic
position in the making of the new.
South and because of the sentiment
which naturally is attracted to the
one-time capital city OF the Confed>r-
acy. But now II Is known, and is be-
coming to be better known, as leading
marketing piacc OF the south. as bus
mess centre and as a central source OF
supply. Preaching "a gospel of reel
procity and pleading for the trade much
OF which has hitherto gone TO the
marketing places OF the North and
West. the Richmond Boosters, as was
frequently said OF them, builded better
than they knew when they undertook
and finished this trip TO boost tho In
terests of their city.

In train OF the Seaboard Air line
Railway. in which the service was per-
rect. and 1t is estimated that they
came In contact with more than 10000
people whom they would probably have
not heard of otherwise. and who would
have remembered Richmond only for
Its traditions OF the past. But on the
tour there was little reference to this
historic past. The talk was on the
present and the prospects Of the flu
ture, and chief reference was to what
Richmond Mas done as commercial
centre and OF what she expects to 10
as she gradually comes into her own
and fulfils the promises of her found
er.
All Get Acquainted.
Another important feature of the
tour was the bringing together OF
Richmond merchants who before were
not acquainted with each other. They
had heard of each other, and knew
that they were engaged in this ousl-
ness or that but they had never met
before and did not know each other.
This feature is especially Important"
said Mr.. Funston. ''In becoming ac-
quatnted with our moro distant neigh
bors we have become acquainted with
each other, and hereafter the spirit of
cooperation will be frner and more
lasting. This trip Will help us to pull
together as we never pulled before, for
we know that what IS for the benefit
OF one Is for the good OF ALL" And
ne voiced very general sentiment
The tour was business one from
the beginning to the end, and Il re-
suited in a success of which the pro-
motors did not dream when they head
ed for the South. They went to teach.
but they learned as much as they
taught They found surprising activ-
ity and development in the oities and
towns OF North Carolina They found
that the Tarheel State liz already taxi
Ing front rank as manufacturing
state. and that its agricultural output
Is increasing every year. They found
cotton mills and tobacco factories as
large as any they had ever seen, and
they saw that the North Carolinlans
are as alive arr hustllng as they them
selves. And what the Tarheel people
learned from the Boosters has heen
told. They accomplished all that they
had expected. and more. The results
VIII come. for the ties which already
bound the two peoples now bind them
tighter still. and the mutual co-opera
ton and the pulling together so much
sought after will come. The results
Will show that the Boosters tour will
bring to Richmond their own reward.
Already there Is talk of a tour of the
same kind next year and the deleea-
ton which leaves Richmond then will
be double, or triple, the delega ton
which left Richmond early in tho
morning of October

Leaving here on the morning OF oc-

stop in Henderson. n. C.. and from there
proceeded through dozen other small
towns of the Old North State, spending
tho night In Charlotte Everywhere
the people were ready for them. Every
where the business representatives OF
Richmond met and became acquainted
with the business men OF other cities
They found that they had much com
mon ground on which to stand: that
their interests were mutual: that Rich
mond. in helping to build up herself
and her own trade, would help build
up cities OF North Carolina, and that
they, In aiding Richmond, would also
be aiding themselves. So 1t turned out
TO be not merely IL boosting tour for

and dozens OF other cities. They look
to Richmond to take the lead in reviv-
flying Southern productivity and ma n
ufacturing. as she once took the lf,\

They look for a marketing place in
which to dispose of their products and
they look TO neighboring city to
supply them with the things they need
