Dakota, the, inadequate methods that
have retarded this. industry are being,
replaced by processes which make for
the highest economy n efficiency.
Necessary Cost of Material.
An architect Of Fargo, N, D., says
that IS per cent of the buildings of the
state are being erected of lumber,
with IS per cent Of the material used,
in a house combustible. The extern
sive use Of lumber Is surely q matter
OF grave concern when we consider
that not a single foot Of lumber is or,
can be produced in the state, with the
producer Of lumber products out on
the a getting a high profit on the
production. the railroad company get
ting an enormous freight rate. ana the
local lumber dealer receiving a profit
on all the other costs. profits. etc.
When the consumer has paid all OF
these costs and erected his house, IL
will only be a n added source or ex-
pense. He. must pay q high rate OF
insurance for the protection he must
have, without which the banks will
not lend him money; he must paint. 1t
every four years or 1t will disinte-
CRATE; his asset valuation is low, de-
probation high and in a few years its
total value as. q real asset has disap-
peaFed.
Fire-Proof Structures Possible.
The remedy for this unfortunate
condition is found in the abundance
of North Dakota's valuable clay from
which every article used in a fire.
proof structure can be made.
Since lumber has advanced SO rapid
ly, a hre-proof house composed OF
vitrified brick foundations, vitrified
brick basement floors and piers. fancy
face brick outside walls, lined with
hollow tile. hollow tile partitions, hol-
low tile floors faced with the finest
of glazed surface. hollow tile ceilings.
and shingle, or Spanish tile roof, can
be erected within 15 per cent OF the
cost Of a wooden structure.
BY the modern tried-out methods
| developed by Professor Babcock and
his efficient corps at the university the
articles mentioned above can be pro-
lduced in the state at a remarkably low
| cost, all profits OF the manufacture. all
labor and all freights being retained in
the state, thereby building up a profit
able industry which an only be ex-
celled by agriculture.
Superiority of North Dakota CIays.
The writer was greatly impressed by
his observation at the school of mines
ployed for fuel economy and the pro-
cesses developed in the ceramics de-
apartment where only North Dakota
tclays are used.
In regard to these he says: sAfter
travelling all over the United States
and visiting clay product plants Of ali
kinds, I have had the pleasure
of seeing finer working clays. or q
finer product being made, than that
produced at the University Of North
Dakota, under the direction OF Prof.

operated on q commercial basis, be-
sides producing or giving off free an
average of 11,000 cubic feet Of gas per
ton Of briquettes, producing sufficient
heat to burn $4,000 bricks to a temper
ature of 5000 degrees F. and generate
5000 horse power for plant operation.
This is a saving Of 1925 per day on fuel
alone, besides the labor cost Of dis
tribution.
Industry Of State Developed.
In the western portion of North
Dakota aud other western states are
found ~inexhaustable Ignite coal fields
and often we find manufacturing
plants located in the Ignite fields
shipping in bituminous Goals. But
ultimately, scientific methods will
eliminate all the Objectionable feat
GOALS in q most efficient and profitable
manner.
Mr.. Kirkpatrick says: "Too much
credit cannot be given Dean Babcock
for the great results accomplished in
the School Of Mines along scientific
lines in developing this efficient meth
cd of accomplishing the greatest re-
suit from Ignite"
The system as worked out at the
University Of North Dakota will re-
suit in great economy in the produc-
ton Of clay products and should bring
about the erection of plants equipped
with all of the devices for labor saw
ing. fuel economy, etc, and finally
give to the people of the state an al
most indestructible building material
produced entirely within their own
boundaries with their own material
and labor, thus building up a most
profitable and permanent industry in
the state. ..

MYSTERIOUS FIRE DAMAGES BUILDING

PHOENIX, June 10.-Fire of the most mysterious origin discovered shortly before o'clock Sunday morn ing ill the mems furnishing establish ment of Reed & Skipper at 30 west Adams street, resulted in the practi- cal destruction of the entire inter- for of that store, the running of the entire stosk and threatened to con- municate to the Smart shop on the west and a real estate office and the Bake Curio store on the east.
 But for the efficient work of the fire department which quickly had several lines of hose playing streams of water from the front and rear, the blaze would have communicated to the other establishments and result ed in much greater damage.

.PROCRESS|vES DO NOT

The Cleveland Leader, owned by Dan R. Hanna, son of the late Mark Hanna, wants the Progressives and Republicans to fuse. Shades of Mark Hannal What is there remarkable about that? Dan R. Hanna was Bull Mooser like Hadley, Borah, La Fol lette and the rest of the bunch that favored nothing but staying with the Republican party at any cost.
 The Republican party was great uplifter for many years, but it died in 1912 and it is now too dead to res greet and no one wants it brought back to life but the politicians.
 The Republican party is dead, but the people still live and though the Progressive party will be heard in tones that will be listened to all over this nation:
 'Dan R. Hanna, son of the famous Mark stay with the party of your dad; the people can spare you; and when all of your kind have been sifted out of the Progressive ranks, it will be will ,"

YUMA COUNTY VOTERS
 DESIRE INFORMATION

For the edification of the people it might be well for the county attorney to publish the correspondence he re ceived from the attorney general, 10 which he recently referred, relative to the registration of voters at the polls.
 One hundred and forty-two persons not on the Great Register voted at Yuma, Crane and Somerton at the re- cent recall election, May 91.
 Yuma citizens were plainly advised by the county attorney that in order to vote they must register. If the at torney general has changed all this the people ought to know it in order that all parties in an election may make use of it.
 Let's be on the square even in poll tics. The Examiner believes in the recall of public officials; but where such recall means so much to an of ficial, nothing but an absolutely square deal and fair count of the voters can be tolerated.
 If registration is unnecessary in or der to vote in Arizona, give the voters the dope on it.

COLONEL ROOSEVELT OUTLINES
 CONDITIONS IF PARTY FUSION

CHARLESTON, w. Va. June 10.- Colonel Theodore Roosevelt, after a long silence, has announced to per sonal friends his willingness to with draw his opposition to an amalgama- ton of the Republican and Progressive parties under certain conditions, ac- cording to a report given out tonight by leading Progressives of this state. A close friend of the colonel, one who has known him intimately for many years, after a conference with Roose- welt, brought back the Roosevelt terms, given out by the Progressives here as follows:
 Colonel Roosevelt will withdraw the Bull Moose from the political menag- erie upon:
 First, the retirement of the present leardership of the Republican party from the control of the national cont mittee of that party.
 Second, the indorsement of the en- tire Progressive propaganda by the Republican party.
 ''I have no objection to an amalga- nation of Progressives and Republi cans" the colonel is reported as say ing, provided the politics of the Pro- greSsive party is carried out We who are progressives, stand for cer- tain principles, which are of vital in- terest of every man, woman and child who is desirous of improving social and economic conditions in this coun- try; we cannot surrender these prin- ciples.
 There can be no amalgamation as long as the Republican party is con- trolled by the sinister forces which wrecked the political organization last year. If the Progressives, should con- sent to such amalgamation, under the present leadership, and we were rob bed again, then it would be our mis take !"
 Colonel Roosevelt, however, accord ing to the information received here does not believe in a reconciliation is practicable, because he is of the orinion that the "Old guard" does not intend to surrender control of the Republican organization at the request of Governor Hadley, Senator Cum mins, Senator Borah and others.

PUBLIC LIBRARY |S HE NEXT
 IMPORTANT M0VE FUR YUMA

Councilman A. l.. 'Verdugo stated to a reporter of The Examiner this morning, in discussing the efforts be- ing made toward a library:
 'I will write to Carnegie today for a contribution, and I feel confident we will get it."
 All of this shows earnestness, which is the key to success, and, when it's coupled with application, it is the un- raveler of all the mystery and diff culties, however hard they may be.
 We have big tract of land, deeded to the city of Yuma by the IT. s. gov ernment to be used for public build ings only, so why not proceed to build thereon? First a public library, then an armory, then-well we will let it to the enterprising citizens of Yuma to supply the list.
 A public library, good roads, pub lie building put through by our stren- uous representatives in Congress are no longer mere shadows, but will be realized in the near future.

 BOND ISSUE FOR ROADS

Eight petitions are being circulated asking for bond issue of $30O,OO.OO. This is the limit under the present law
 The Board of Supervisors is being urged to employ a competent engineer to survey and make plans and speci- fications of the roads to be improved, and to call an election when the vot- CTS may vote on the bond issue
 The roads mentioned are:
 Yuma to the International boundary line, through the center of Yuma val ley.
 From Yuma to the Maricopa county line, by way of Dome.
 From Yuma to Laguna Dam, and a bridge across the Gila river near the mouth.
 From Yuma to Castle Dome, thence to some point on the Arizona & Cali fornia railroad in the northern part of the county
 From the Maricopa county line in the northern part of Yuma county, to Parker on the Colorado river-making connection of all points of interest with the north and south Yuma roads
 LET THE GOOD WORK CON TINUE UNTIL OUR ROADS ARE ALL IN A CONDITION TO BE PROJTD OF
 Nothing can be done toward com mendable progress without good roads you can often judge the people by the company they keep. and a com munity, from business standpoint, is judged by the roads they have.

GOOD ROADS NEEDED
 ID DEVELOP COUNTRY

No state, no county, section or even neighborhood can be developed with out good roads. If all people would advocate and act as one man, and at the same time realize the great inn portanc of good roads, we would soon have them, or at least part of them made good.
 When the work starts, the people seeing the difference in the good and the bad, the work will go on with a lightning-like speed, and in less than two years real estate would double in value; business would likewise be increased.
 If men with capital come to see the country with view to locating they may admit your climate, your flowers, your fruit and sunshine; but bad roads knocks him out entirely-nothing do- ing.

Yuma is enjoying the usual pleas ant summer weather. It was some cold last night especially for those who sleep on high places outdoors. Yuma's January and June weather are as near the same of recent years that ffttle difference can be noticed by people who live here Most of Yuma supposed hot weather is confined to the immagination of the knockers and people who have never been in Yuma and base their criticism on ancient writings about the Arizona desert 70 years ago when a soldier Ghe same one we have all heard about went from Yuma to very hot place and immediately sent back for his blank cts.

 The company in reply to the com- plaint sets out the present system is altogether adequate to the demands of the city of Phoenix, that the busi- ness on West Washington street is not of sufficient volume to warrant such an action on the part of the company Further, the company says it has not funds enough to do the work the commission requires.
 Upon the receipt of the answer to the complaint the commission set June 18th as the date for the hearing upon the answer At this time evi- dence will be taken both for and against the company.
