COMING OF RAILROAD
 MAKES VERDE HAPPY
Country About Jerome Is Pleased with New
 Prospects

General Manager Watson of the Arizona Power company was in Je. rome Tuesday looking after the in. terests Of his company in this dis, trict and in the Verde Valley, which are growing more extensive rapidly, and will be increased materially in a short time if the installing of pro, posed sub-station near Camp Verde for pumping water for Irrisation pur poses !s coasummated says the Je- rome News.
 Regarding the installing of a plant in the Verde, MT. Watson said 10 tine editor of The News, that there was every prospect that the plant would be ready for work in the very neal future, that thirty property owners, located in the immediate neighbOT. hood of Camp Verde. located from four miles south of that place to eight miles above, had subscribed for pow CT, and that many other ranchmen had signified their intention of sub scrIbing.
 MT. Watson also said that the in trOductioE of electricity for pumping purposes ill the valley would increase the acreage now under cultivation to the section named under above, three fold lie cited one case where the acres of a Tanchman would be IE. creased from 90 acres Eow under water to ZJO, and another rom 50 to 3yJ acres.
 While the prospects for the contlE- uing of the Verde Valley railway, which is now being built 10 point northeast Of Jerome, 10 the southern end of the valley is a matter yet in the future. yet from all sections ot the valley good roads with light grades now lead to the terminal point of the new railroad. In connec ton with this transportation prob lem MT. Watson said that an electric line was in the prospective, but that II the proposition did not materialize the ranchmen in the valley could du rlicate the gasolinC trucks that are now being used for transportation par noses by mining companies in the Bradshaw country. near Prescott, re citing one haul in that country, where the change from mule power to thdt of gasoline, had reduced the cost from SS.5O to 75 cents CT ton.
 Of course should any oi the com panles now drilling all along the val lev strike commercial oil, Tor which the prospects are now eAtreineN bright the transDortation problem would be settled al once. as then the Verde Valley Railway bGHders would at ohce continue the line down The valley

TOWN THAT DOES NOI
 EXIST IN NEW JERSEY
Ampere Has Station but Lacks Possessing a
 Separate Entitv

Although the town of Ampere, \. J. gives steady employment 10 over 1000 people, transacts millions of dol lars worth of business annually, and enjoys the distinction of a separate railroad station, where a memorial tablet was formally unveiled by Am bassador Jusserand of France four years ago, and has a United States government postofice exclusively for it's use. it has no existence in fact It lies upon the border lire between Newark and East Orange, \. J., but as there is no space between these two cities. it is partly included within both and under two municipal govern ments. The concrete evidences Of its existence quoted above are due 10 the presence there of the Crocker- Wheeler company, whose plant. occu- pying twenty-five acres, lustiiies its individual name. That the town is jealous of its exclusive name, given in honor of the great French discover CT Of the measure of electric current is shown by the fact that there is TO other Ampere in the world. \ town on the Northern Pacific railroad was given the name some years ago, but the Crocker-WheeleI company filed prompt objection, and the town sc lected another title. There are fifty or more Waterloos in the world. and Londons and Parises by the dozens, but only one Ampere-and that does not exist Our national capitol pre- sents a similar anomaly in that it does not exist as Q separate munich pality, but is under the control Ot the federal government through three commissioners appointed by the president and confirmed by the sen ate.

Special Correspondence Of The Re view, by Winfield Jones.)
 WASHINGTON, March 20.-Charles C. Abbott. director of the As'ropsy si- ell Observatory of the Smithsonian h. stitution, has just finished a brochure on the sun. It is intended for general distribution and is expected 10 eN- cite much interest in the subject among scientists as well as the gen Cral public Not since Professor Youngs book on the sun, published about twenty years ago, has anything as comprehensive been published on this subject.
 The study Of the sun has been the cbject of much research and study by scientists for years but only within recent years have they been able 10 learn much of the planet. New and powerful telescopes, specially con structed cameras with powerful lenses, electrical kites. and numerous other devices have been employed by scientists to aid them in prosecuting their duties.
 In 1873 $. P Langley, director Of the Allegheny Observatory began his investigations on the sun. He had not progressed far when ne realized the necessity of more delicate instru- ments for the measurement of the heat given off by solar rays and be gan working on a design for boo meter which he completed several years later This new instrument proved to be a great advance on all instruments previously used and through il, the science of sun study was called Astrophysics. meaning that

\ INTERNATIONAL RECON Nj ENDATION

In the first message of Governor Hunt to the legislature, there are many recommendations which will noc meet the approval of all thoughtful citizens. We will speak now, only Of that recommendation to put into the hands of the governor all the au- thority now resting in the board of control, including the power to make contracts for supplies, involving many thousands Of dollars annually. The governor does not seem to have taken account of a possible, and even a probable. contingency-th ad- ministration of governor who may not be a good business man; one who may not be an honest man, or one who may be neither an honest man or a business man
 Of the integrity of Governor Hum, his constituents have no doubt, and in the last quarter Of a century he has furnished indubitable proof Of his great business ability. The sweeping power he recommends, we believe, would be safely lodged in him. But even if he were elected to succeed himself until death, we must take into account that life IS uncertain, and, at the best, Is bu, brief
 In the nature of things there would be other governors. so that the means which Governor Hunt advises for tho purpose of securing to the state business administration, conducted on business principles. might give to us an unbusiness-like administration tne result of unwisdom if not Of absolute dishonesty.
 As We understand the recommen- dation, it does not contemplate that the governor shall directly exercise in detail the authority to be vested in him. but that it shall be exercised oy persons appointed by him without the consent of the legislature. in the man her he might suggest. His authority would be as absolute as that Of the Centurion
 In a measure. the responsibility for an improper transaction would be alr parertly removed from the governor and thrown upon the helpless crea- lures who would nave less power oi resistance than is now possessed by the board of control. the joint creation of the governor and the legislature.
 The power of the governor, in these circumstances, would be abso- lute. The legislature is called upon to divest itself of what little share il already has in the control of pub lie affairs, and how little control it has of even its own affairs was strik- ingly illustrated by the manner In which the house of representatives was organized last Monday. when a decided majority unwillingiy surren- dered 70 the governor.
 We trust that Governor Hunt will reconsider this recommendation and that he will not press it upon the legislature.

person who believes in prevention
rather than cure needs this first
warning and seeks simple rem

A corrective which will bring
almost immediate relief, is com
posed of the following mixture:
Juice of one orange, water and
lump of sugar to flavor; and in
proportion to the acidity of the
orange, about half teaspoonful
of baking soda. Dissolve the
sugar in the water, add the
orange juice. Then put in the

DISTRICT REVENUE COLLECTOR
SAYS REPORT THAT $50 HAD
BEEN ISSUED Is MISTAKE.

The News recently quoted a citi-
zen as saying that $50 revenue IL
censes had been issued by the gov
eminent for the sale of spirituous
and malt liquors in Terrell county.
The item attracted the attention
of Ed Richardson, the revenue col
lectCr for this district, and while in
Dawson Wednesday he called at The
News Office to say that the report is
erroneous.
According to Richardson there are
at this time not over dozen licenses
for the sale of whiskey in Terrell
county, and about half of this num-
Der are held in Dawson There is
not a license at PARROT, Sasser, Do
verel and Herod.
A majority of the licenses in effect
in the county were taken out by AL
bany and Americas people, who are
selling whiskey in Terrell county
through representatives and ped
dlers.
Richardson states that two or three
years ago there were perhaps $50
revenue licenses in this county, but
since then conditions here have con-
siderably improved, and Terrell now
has as good a record as any county in
his district as to the number of
whiskey licenses.
