PRESCOTT NEEDS
 DAY CURRENT

The question of a continuance current for the city will be brought up at the meeting of the council this evening. This is something that should be consid. cred seriously by every member Of the council. That we will have this day current some time is a fact. It will have to be operated Tor some time at a loss is another fact. Hope, Philadelphia and many other towns, some smaller than Prescott, have them and we do not see any use at all in wait ing another year before day juice" is furnished permanent- ly.
 If it takes additional machine. ry for this current, will the city be in any better condition to in. stall it in one or two years hencef
 Motor power is the cheapest, cleanest and most convenient power that can be had, and we are sure that after the first sea son enough of the current will be used to pay operating expenses of the plant.

 A family has been disrupted on account of some doggoned meddlesome fool telling the truth.

 The old-faShioned sorghum molasses mill is now a scarce ar ticle throughout the country. There used to be a number of them in operation in every county years ago, but this gen. eration seems to have outgrown the taste for sorghum molas- ses.

Sen. Clarke Returns from Washington

Little Rock, Sept, 15.-U. s. Senator James P. Clarke has re turned from Washington for a few days to look after his politi- cal fences. He is indicating to his friends that he will make one of his characteriStically hard fights for the re-nomination and much interest attaches to it be- cause of the fact that this will be the first direct election of a Senator under the new federal law. For several years advisory primaries have been held in the state, meaning virtually the same thing, however. At this time it seems probable that Senator Clarke and Associate Justice w. F. Kirby will be the only candi dates for the office. although two or three members of the Con- gressional delegation persist in comming to the front as possibil- ities. It Is probable that the campaign will open vigorously after Jan. 1.

Not long ago a student at Cor

expenses for school books and

too high. He decided to shave

consistently Topping the corners

his weekly bill in the knife and

Here is the only bridge of its
kind in the world. 1t is probably
the most ambitious bridge ever
built BY Indians on the North
American continent. It is the
achievement of the AcauiIget

ful people,"
This bridge spans the Buckley
river near Hazelton, British Co
lumbia. 1t il a combination of

struction, and is guyed and prop

poles and telegraph wire. This
country is just beginning to be
settled by the whites. but the
bridge has been there long time.
In the '60's it was planned to
run a telegraph line to Europe by
way of the wflds of Canada and
Alaska and across Boring strait to
Siberia. then to Russia and finally
to London; the first attempt at an

AS a result of such interschoE

who wears the capital "Y"

be the undefeated half-back or
the captain of the college crew.
He will be the wan-eyed martyr
