"% HE war against the fly is on
 again. It is war to the
 death on both sides Either
 A the man kills the fly or the fly kills the man. No compromise, no mediation. is possible. When the hand of the man is raised against the fly it should come down with a fatal whack else the foot of the fly will bring deadly disease to the man or his wife or child. Therefore for your own sake and for humanlty's sake SWAT THE FLY!
 This is the season of battle. the time for the waging of the war. In the spring the matching of the fly is his declaration of hosuities against man kind. In the summer he does most of his fell work In the fall he relapses into the state of comparative lnno- cence which makes mankind forget his sins. In the winter few flies are seen but in the spring they appear again in all their viciousness. Unless they are checked then the later months see them in overwhelming numbers, each one a potential carrier of death and disease. Therefore in spring. summer or fall, even in the winter. whenever opportunity offers itself, SWAT THE FLY!
 
 societies are carried out, next year will see us afflicted with fewer flies than this year. the year after will see a further reduction in the numbers of musca dOmestica, and so on, until the hyless millennium arrives. Every board of health and health society in the world is interested in exterminating the fly Probably the most active of a1i hCu iS Hxy RDht t{,ocr committee of the American Civic asso- ciation, which is sparing neither ex- pense nor time in the effort to elimi- nate the obnoxious insect. The head of the committee is Edward Hatch. Jr., of New York, whose portrait is reproduced here. together with an enlarged picture of a fly. -Four years ago." said Mir Hatch recently, when we began this campaign, it was hard to push because the disease bearing habits of the house. fly were little understood, and the facts. even when comprehended, were thought too disagreeable for discus sion. but now the campaign Is push ing itself and us to supply the demand for ammunition"
 By ammunition Mir Hatch meant the pamphlets. booklets. circulars, letters to newspapers, etc, with which the war on the insect disease bearer is con- ducted One of the latest shots in the campaign Is the issue of the Fly Fight CT. four page tract in newspaper form. the official organ of the anti-fy movement. Some ot the time of the committee and it's head has been de- voted recently to the discovery of a poison for killing flies. The most ap- proved method seems to be the use of formalin mixed in the proportion of one ounce to si@t csr ounces of equal parts of milk ana irat2-.

The Americans of the United States of America have been accused, with good reason, of not realizing the boom in trade which the opening of the ca nal will inaugurate. It has even been asserted that there is apathy in regard to the matter of providing a sufficient and able working force for the water way itself II is certain that the coun- tries lying near the canal and south Of it are not sleeping Chile for example. has just inaugurated extensive works for the new port of San Antonio, south of Valparaiso The port will afford fla cilities for opening up a great wheat region. Chileans are foresighted enough to anticipate the time when there will be a continuous procession of ships through the Panama canal, taking this route to the marts Of the world instead of the perilOus old ones through the strait of Magellan or around Cape Horn.

Example after example might be given of the wide awakeness" of South and Central Americans. Shrewd Mexicans look to a boom of trade in the products of their rich country when it's political troubles shall have been relegated 10 the background. Pana- ma or an influential party in Panama, wants the United States of America 10 supervise it's elections. holding wisely that a fair election. with tranquility Of trade and security of life. is pref erable to the uncertain delights of an election of the old style. Cuba also seems to have quieted down. rendering idle the recent talk of another and final intervention. Secretary of State Sanguily of the island republic recently called a conference to consider ways and means of continuing the reciproc- ity treaty between Cuba and the United States. It may be said generally that from the Rio Grande to the canal zone

and from the zone south to the south ernmcst point of South America. Cen tral and South America are looking forward to the continuance of friendly relations with the United States and to a rapid augmentation of their. com- merce with their big northern neigh bor. The consuls general in New York of the countries affected have formed an association to promote trade.

what penitentiary life was like. so he committed himself-for a very brief term howeYer-to the state prison and peered through the iron bars of q cell, heard the measured tread of the war ders and ate the prison fare. But 1t may be doubted whether he really en- tered into the spirit of the thing, so to speak There's a radical difference be-
 tween the convict in his stripes and man who has the power to remove
 the badges of shame. Another governor
 who recently imprisoned himself over
 night is Hunt of Arizona. It seems to
 run in the Hunt family to do things of
 that sort.
 Probably the forerunner of the Amer
 jeans in office who did and do things to
 get into touch with the people was the
 late Hagen $. Pingree, one time mayor
 of Detroit and later governor or Mich |igan In a time of scarcity Mayor Pin
 gree looked at his city's empty lots and decided that as they were not needed immediately as the sites of houses they might as well be put to some other use,
 so he had them converted into potato patches for the poor. As""Potato Patch
 Pingree he gained F-eat renown ana the tubers helped to plant him in the governors chair.
 Potatoes enter prominently also in the career of the present mayor of In Idianapolis, Samuel Lewis Shank, who lhas been doing his best to down the Imiddleman by having the farmer deal directly with the people in potatoes, apples and other forms of provender lone of Mayor Shank's interesting ana lpopuIar stunts is the supervision of sales in the public market of his city. In one of his former terms of office lCarter H. Harrison of Chicago, the present mayor, instituted system or lpopular hearings by the city executive Every afternoon at about or O'CLOCK he left his private office for the outer Ichamber. There, unmindfui of the fate of his assassinated father. he received Iall who wanted the ear of their mayor.

 | There are many other officials who have done out of the way things in
 order to learn for themselves how things were going. Mayor Seidel or Milwaukee, the Socialist defeated for Ire election, sitting in his shirt sleeves | in his office, may be mentioned.

 The moment is very opportune for the senate to make a declaration in Iregard to the statement in MT Mon- roe's message that the American con- ltinents are not to be considered as Ifurther objects of colonization. to make it clear that that is not confined to government action. but that by the word Colonization we also cover ac- ton by companies or corporations of foreign states which. whether subsi- Gized or not by the foreign govern ment, might do at place, for instance. like Magdaeua bay [MeXicol. precise ly what the doctrine was intended to prevent"

 "All houses and stores where food is exposed for sale should be thoroughly protected by screens, and any stray flies should be caught upon sticky fly paper, trapped or poisoned.

In thus getting in touch with the people and with municipal conditions
 Mayor Hunt of Cincinnati may have been inspired by the precedent of Mayor Gaynor of New York, to say nothing of the ancient Calf Haroun al Raschid. the burgomaster Of Bagdad who snooped around in order to see how his people were faring under the grand viZier when he himself was not "on the job" Mayor Gaynor doesn't [

So he set to work immediately to serve the city as a policeman. in blouse and cap; as a fireman in red flannel un- dershirt presumably, as a street cleaner with brush and broom.
Arizona republican., 1912-05-26

Being an extremely energetic and purposeful young man, Mir. Hunt found no difficulty in persuading his family and his official associates that it was the proper thing to do And as he is mayor of one of the largest of Ameri- can cities and as he has a record for efficiency, acquired before he conceived the idea of his latest stunt" it is pos sible that the mayors of other cities will be moved to follow his example.
