ALDERMEN HEAR ARGUMENTS
FROM PROPERTY OWNERS
DISCUSSION STARTS OVER THE
SIZE OF THE cULvERT TO BE
USED IN DITCH ON SECOND
AVENUE,

That an adequate storm sewer is
now an absolute necessity and that
there is no other possible way to
properly drain the territory west of
Ridgewood avenue, was the fact
brought out at the meeting of the
city council last evening as a result
of the discussion on the size of the
culvert to be placed in the Fever
Hollow ditch across Second avenue
west of Ridgewood. a. -
G. H. Hulett, who owns property
north of Second avenue, appeared be-
fore the council with a request that
two culverts be installed in place OF
the one five-foot opening which has
just been put in place, to keep the
water from backing up and damaging
his property. Former Mayor E. w.
Greene gave a lengthy talk to the
aldermen opposing the proposition of
Mr.. Hulett because he declared that
would throw more water down
through the ditch to spread over
his property and cause damage to
him
President Schmidt called upon En-
gineer D. d. Rogers to give his
opinion OF the matter and the en-
gineer explained that the portion of
the city west of Ridgewood avenue
would never be properly drained until
the city installs an adequate storm
sewer system, with openings at least
every two blocks from the ditch to
the river.
The question as 10 aleth,r there
should be but O. slert opening in
the ditch across Second avenue. or
whether the request of MIR. Hulett
should be granted and the old culvert
be Installed beside the new one was
not decided at the meeting of the
council and the matter was lett to
the street committee, the members
of that committee to have the ser
vices Of Aldermen Conrad and o.
Brlen in coming to a decision on the
matter.
Mr.. Hulett contends that the new
five-foot culvert which has just been
put in place by Street Commissioner
Rix is too small to convey the water
at times of heavy rains and high
tides, and that if there is but this
one opening through Second avenue
the water will be backed up on his
property and cause him much dam
age. 1t was at his request that the
work of installing the new culvert
was stopped Saturday until he could
have an opportunity to place the mat
ter before the city council.
Last night Mr.. Hulett explained
that what he desires is that the new
culvert be left III place, just as it
has been installed, but that the old
culvert, which has just been re-
moved, be installed beside the new

 The meeting so well advertised and which from all indications will be of the kind that calls for over flow meetings is through the arrangement of good democrats at Douglas They have worked hard to make the affair signal success and their efforts should and no doubt will meet the hearty approval of residents of War ren district not by moral support but by actual attendance.
 Some of the best speakers in the state win address the meeting, which is not alone a Douglas affair but one for entire Cochise counly. Meetings Of this character are the beSt s..:.cc.srrs ever devised to bring the people to- gether and infuse patriotism, they stir the sluggard blood that has be- come almost stagnant from long in- activity and lead the people on to higher ideals for the government of the country to which they owe ale glance.
 Let every man, and the women too if possible. in the Warren district, that can possibly attend the meeting at Douglas go there tonight and make the event one long to be remembered and thus show the Shelter city that Warren district is for them and with them in every proposition. Let's make the ratification meeting there the big gest and best that will be held in the state during the coming campaign

 Something unusual and beautiful happened at our place this morning, '' said the plump little woman who | mas summer home in the country.
 T was IGSsing around in the gar den back of the house. when suddenly I heard some one singing. It was a rich bass voice and the tune seemed familiar I wondered who it could be, for we haven't any near neighbors. Besides, I didn't know any among them could sing like that.
 T hurried around to the front of the cottage, where the sound seemed to be And-will you believe it?- there I saw an old man, in overails and swinging his tin dinnerpail, trudging through the dust of the road His face was lifted to the heay- ems and out of his mouth was rolling the grand rhythm of a Bach choral,
 He sang 1t corr lctfy, too-and reverently, as if he were thankful for the wonderful morning and the boun- teous gifts Of nature about him.

KANSAS MODERN UTOPIA


 Tn the Gulliverian land of Laputa, where the industrious inhabitants sought to make sunshine rom cu- cumbers, there must have been a spir- it which has descended upon Kansas. For in that happy land the fly has been gwatted. the roller tcwei abol- ished. the common drinKhls cup banned. and now a campaign is on 10 rout the gourmand from the shad- ow of the Sunflower State.
 Under the direction of the indefati- gable pr Crumbine the state board of health is at worE on formulas to determine how much the Kansan should eat. These experiments. if fol lowed. will save the individual money, improve his health and add to his wisdom.
 ..One might as well take a i've dollar bill and light his pipe with it as to burn no that money by wrong eating" says Dr. Crumbine. Isn't it simpleg It requires a certain number of heat units to keep man going al normal gait. once that number IS found for the various occupations. all the Kansan will have 10 do is 10 Yisl' the store with his index in hisl hand pick out the food with the requisite sustaining power and go serenely or bis way.
 Bapished will be the fiend of inql ees$ion and the deadly grouch. We have long sought for Utopia in vain but now we are turning out fevered gaze toward the west, toward Dr Crumbine and Kansas.

AW0MANyO OBSERVATIONS


pregnated with our horrible American lack of sentiment.
 why do think he is a foreigner My dear, can you conceive of an American doing anything like that? Why. in the first place he'd consider it a waste of time to study Each choral. In the second place, he'd be scared to death to sing it right out loud even on a lonely country road. for fear somebody would hear him and guy him for it. The average American is so afraid of ridicule and what they say that he suppresses all his finest emotions. and only lets himself loose in a crowd"
 we've been horribly shocked in our neighborhood lately remarked the tall girl in one of those big pan amas with a black velvet ribbon adorning it.
 Do tell us about it, begged the girl whose white shoes smelled or recent cleaning with gasoline.
 We have some new neighbors, and they have two daughters and son. And-well you know how con ventional our neighbcrhood is-one of those cut.and-dried residence streets where everybody must do just so or it's a horrible scandal Why, mother doesn't dare go out on the back porch without her corset on! That's why we're going to move this fall either into a ten-acre lot or city fiat. where we can do as We please.
 But about the new neighbors-tha girls are about twelve and fifteen years old and not small fo" their age. And they go about most of the day dressed just like their brother in blue jean overalls and barefoot The only difference between the girls and the boy is that the girls hair is tied up with ribbons. Ana shey're the happiest, healthiest family you ever saw in your life.
 But the neighborhOod is holding conniption-fit meetings, and if the women get their way I expect the new family will be tarred and feath- eredl ,H QYever,t I'm with the new fam fly. and sSsr2I can get courage enough TmHsoing 10 bloom out in that garb myself one of these days

Colonel Roosevelt continues to ad- vertisc Arizona by his often repeated explanation of how the vote or ATi- zona was stolen for Taft in the re. publican national convention in Chi caGo. Roosevelt points to COchise county as the very hotbed of political brigandage in the state And a large majority of the republicans of Ari- zona are convinced that the colonel is telling the blessed truth about how the vote from the state of Arizona was manipulated for Taft in the Chi Cago convention.
