EQISON,S VACATION

The reported breakdown of Thomas A. Edison while touring in an auto mobile through Maine has caused the friends of the celebrated inventor much anxiety. This is the first time, to the public knowledge, that MT Edison has taken what is con ventionally called a vacation; that is, has put aside his work and essayed a period of idleness. Few men have devoted themselves so constantly and unremittingly to their work as has the wizard of electricity. Unlike Nicola Tesla, who achieved a com fortable fortune through his alternat- ing current inventions and retired to life of comparative ease. MT Edi- son has never considered his work as finished. It is to be hoped that his illness is only the result of un- wonted idleness, and that he will soon again be engaged in his health giv- ing work.-Rochester Democrat and Chronicle.

MESES CONTRIBUTION
 ID THE NEWS OF THE DAY
THE INDIAN AS AN ASSET.

There was time on the frontier an Indian was to swap him colOred cloth and a few trinkets for his pro- ducts, at an enormous profit to the aforesaid whites, but the present day wise as the salesman with whom he trades and when he is not treated right he is well aware of the fact and takes his trade elsewhere. Mesa is sur rounded by a large Indian population, hundreds of whom are now picking our cotton, or bringing their own staple here for market, this means a large and increasing trade for the merchants of Mesa provided we treat these people as we would anyone else. It is said that certain Indians have been forced to buy things that they did not want here, before the merchant would cash their checks, this is causing trade to be taken from our city to other towns where they can cash their checks without be- ing forced to buy anything. This would be unWiSe if followed by all of our business men. The cotton industry is in it's infancy, to do anything now that would tend to check it's production or restrict it's trade would be like killing the goose that laid the golden eggs. The Indian trade at Mesa can be made big asset, as they become more and more familiar with the cotton industry and the natives should be encouraged to go more and more into the busi- ness instead of being held in check The same thing applies to the new corners who are coming into our country to rent land and plant the fIeecy staple These men with their families will need help, and for a while will be at a dis advantage financially, and the mer- chant or town that is broad enough to treat these people right and not take advantage of either their ignorance or their poverty will be the ones that in the long run will win out and prosper If an Indian brings his cotton to this market. he should be paid in checks that he can get the cash on at any bank, and should not be made to buy dollars worth of anything that he does not want. This is not only just but 1t is good business.

PRACTICE PREDICTS EXCELLENCE

Tempe high is expecting to carry off the banner for local talent productions when it stages "The Merchant of Ven ice, up to Date" at the Goodwin opera house next Friday evening. The play is funny from start to finish, to some who have witnessed the rehearsals it has apeared to be even more than this
 At all events, they predict big hit when the production is made. The var ious athletic teams in their work on the stage are improving with every re- hearsal so that while they are in some respects new to the stage work they will have the at home feeling with their field togs on. The athletic association of Tempe high under whose auspices the production is being made is doing everything in it's power to make the play success. But so much is as sured The modern style of production local settings and local characters. al- most in themselves spell success when ''The Merchant of Venice, up to Date" is played to a Tempe audience.

REPAIR WORK ON
 STREETS OF TEMPE
Approaches to New Bridge Will be put
 in First Glass Shape. Lights
Also Assured.

Six blocks Of Tempe's thOrOughfares in the northern part of town are to be sraveled this week. A half dozen teams and wagons were set to work by the street committee of the common coun- ciI yesterday morning at hauling gravel from the north side of the river. Yet not alone will these six blocks of road be treated to a coat of gravel, the coun- cil also hopes at an early date to con- meet the south approach of the new bridge by way of First street and Mill avenue with string of electric lights, thus making a lighted thoroughfare from one extremity of the city limits to the other.
 The streets graded and graveled by the council are the north two blocks of Ash avenue connecting with the south approach of the state highway bridge, two blocks on First street be- tween Mill and Ash avenues, also con- meeting with the bridge and two blocks on Second street between Mill and Ash avenues.
 At an early date it is very probable that the council Will order lights in stalled on north Mill avenue and First street Thus when the lights on the bridge are in order the Mesa Phoenix road through Tempe will be lighted from the north side of Salt River, the northwestern limit of the town, to the east city limit line, a distance of nearly two miles.
 The street committee still has in view other repair work on the local streets which will likely be carried out at an early date

The display of exhibits this year has been materially increased in every depart ment as has also the program of speak CTS been changed and improved upon. To those who are interested in farm work and saw the cars here last year the date of arrival this year will be looked forward to with eagerness. The display of farm produce and the lec- lures are well worth the time of every one.
