 Is Appreciated

Prior rights of lands was the ob- ject of the survey boards study at it's session yesterday in the Water Users building. The land water ser vice rights of certain shares in the association were investigated, and a good impression made on the mass of " orl before the commission.
 In a short interview on the situa- tion, Chairman Hanna said:
 This work is bound to take long time-perhaps longer than any of us thought at first There is such a pile of work, and it is in such shape we must devote a great deal of time to our preparations. The assistance giV- en us by the water users and the reclamation people here has cleared away q lot of difficulties. But the work is going to be interesting. too"
 In defining the rights of lands un- der the Salt River project. the long experience of Frank II.

Secretary of Board of Trade Has Raft
 Of Ideas on the Subject.
CRv Harry WelchO

Our oWr Uni+ed States has again vindicated the claim of being absolute lv selr-contained War without the country would have no effect on our prosperity. Our food supplies are se- cure and raw material for the bulk of our manufactures can always be had. The latest addition to crops grown on a lsrge scale is Egyptian cotton.
 An area has been developed where this valuable crop can be grown sue cessfuIly and prOfitably. The quality of the Americanized Egyptian cotton is splendid. There remains one problem only for the growers to solve. The Salt River valley in Arizona has the ideal kind of soil and with the comple- ton of the immense Roosevelt dam the supply of irrigation water is now very plentiful and more than sufficient for all needs. Labor is the problem now before the farmers and cotton grow CTS in the country surrounding Phoe nix, around which city 5000 acres of Egyptian cotton are growing.
 A novel plan of inducing the right kind of labor to come to the valley has been used. The farmers are offering to those who will pick cotton and who show they have the right spirit and energy an opportunity to lease small tracts on very favorable terms. Cotton pickers are invited to come to the Salt River valley and when the season of picking is over or before. if necessary they are given the opportunity to select 10 or 20 acres on which to grow cotton for themselves. Arrangements for seed and machinery are so convenient that all energetic persons can avail them selves of the offer. The cotton picking season over, there is to be work in oth- CT lines of agriculture. The climate of the valley enables the farmers to have green things the year round and it is

as. charged in certain press reports, to influence Provisional President Huerta to appoint Pedro Lascurain, minister of foreign relations, with a view of Huertas possible retirement
 in his favor He expressed doubt, however, of the accuracy of the report, when questioned regarding what his position would be in such an event.
 Ut is impossible to believe that President Wilson intends to act in the manner attributed to him by. the press. This action would be equiva- lent to approving the abOminable political proceedings of Huerta. Huerta attempted to hide his trea- son and assassination by forcing the resignatiOns of MaderO and Suarez and then eleVating the more easily controlled Lascurain to the presi- dencY for a few brief minutes so he. Huerta. could be named minister of gObernaciOn. In this position he could usurp the power of Lascurain and eject him from the presidency.
 If we believe the press, President Wilson now intends to commit the same crime through the person of Lascurain. The only difference be- tween this contemplated act and that of Huerta is that Huerta, who to our disgrace is a Mexican, acted within the realm of internal politics. while Wilson would make the affair one of international politics.

"The Girl From Mumms."

"The Girl From Mumms" belongs to the new form of musical comedy, which is superior to the old musical comedy or light opera, consequently it contains both kinds of musical entertainment and is the most pretentious musical offering of the season. The book is by J. A. Lacy, young author With up to-the-m minute ideas, who has written a story that is pleasing to the eyes, as well as to the ear and keeps the au- dience in a happy frame of mind from start to finish, the narrative being en- tertaining and the dialogue crisp and snappy. The score is by Fred A. Bohn horst, young composer who has writ ten more real classy and nifty popu lar musical hits for The Girl From Mumms' than have been heard in any musical comedy or light opera in years
 Among the musical numbers scat tered like pearls along the action of the play are Captivating Cleo, The Girl of Mumms and Mine, The Road to Philadelphia, There's A Reason, Teach Me- and others. The attraction is booked at the Elks for Nov 22, which is tonight.

ADJUSTMENTS
The Empress


 The Suffragettes' is perhaps one of the most interesting little farces offered at the Empress in many moons, and the Dancing Dolls made the biggest hit yet. For novelty mu- sical numbers they would be hard to beat, and often times the audience demands as many as a half dozen cncores at each appearance, which of course bespeaks much popularity for the girls, The show gives both Fritz Fields and Miss Wainwright a good opportunity to display their pleasing ability. The bill will be repeated to- night and Sunday.
 On Monday evening the company will offer Hi links" another of MT. Fields comedy successes. Particular attention has been directed to a spe- cial feature movie on this bill which is both interesting and educational. Everyone has seen Driar pipes. And all smokers are interested in their manufac cture. The film shows the making of the pipes from the gath ering of briarwood stumps to their finishing touches. The picture is a recent product of the well known C. G. P. c. company. The first part of it is devoted to the life of the centi- pcde. showing the birth and growth Of that insect as seen under a power flu! magnifying glass.

DEAD BEAT WHO WANTED
 NOTHING BUT A SHAVE

In the American Magazine Stephen Leacock, known as the Canadian Mark Twain. writes an amusing piece en- titled Under the Barber's Knife" The following is an extract:
 " Who's been doing your work? ne asked. This question, from a bar Ter, has no reference to ones daily occupation. It means. Who has been shaving you?'
 T knew it was best to own up I'd been in the wrong, and I meant to acknowledge it with perfect frank ness.
 :" I've been shaving myself l said
 My barber stood back from me in contempt. There was a distinct sen satiOn all down the line of barbers. One of them threw T wet rag in a corner with a thud, and another sent q sudden squirt from an atomizer into i.ls customers eyes as d mark of disgust
 My barber continued to look at me narrowly.
 ' What razor do vou use?' he said
 '' A safety razor,' I answered
 The barber had begun to dash soap over my face; but he stopped a8hast a what I had said.
 A safety razor to a barber is like red rag to a bull.
 If il was me he went on. beat ing lather into me as he spoke. I wouldn't let one of them things near my face! No, sir. There ain't no safety in them. They tear the hide clean off Non-just raHe the hair right out by the follicles.'- he said this he was Illustrating his meaning with i"bs of his razor,-them things just cut mans face dll to pieces he Jabbed stick of alum against an open cut that he had made-'and as for cleanliness, for sanitation. for this here hygiene. and for germs, why. I Vouldn't have em around me for d fortune
 T said nothing. I knew I had de served 1t. and l kept quiet
 The barber gradually subside,I Under other circumstances he would have told me something of the spring training of the baseball clubs. or the last items from the Jacksonville track CT any of those things which a culti- vated man loves to hear discussed between breakfast and business. But was not worth it As he neared the end of the shaving he spoke again this time in a confidential. almost yearning tone.
 ." Massage? he said
 " No: thank you
 Shampoo the scalp?' he whis- pered.
 No; thanks
 'Singe the hair?' he coaxed.
 No; thanks
 The barber made one more effort.
 Say, he said in my ear. as a thing concerning himself and me alone, your hairs pretty well all falling out. You'd better let me just shampoo up the scalp bit and stop Up them follicles or pretty soon you won't
 No, thank you I said not today
 This was all the barber could stand He saw that I was just one Of those miserable dead beats who come to a barber shop merely for a shave, and who carry away the scalp and the follicles and all the barber's perquisites as if they be- lOnged to them"

ASSOCIATED PRESS nTsPATcHT


 CHICAGO, Nov. 21.-Further infor- nation as to the activities in 1912 of the American Telephone and Telegraph company for the purpose of absorbing 10000 independent telephone concerns, was given today by B. c. Hubbeu of Buffalo, a government witness at the hearing in connection with the prose- cution of the American company for violation Of the Sherman anti-trus law. The witness told of the effort the American company made to obtain control of the Stromberg Carlson com pany of Rochester. N. Y said to be the second largest manufacturer of telephone supplies in this country at the price of $5,OOO,00O. Hubbell said if negotiations had been successful the independents would have had to pay more for supplies.
 Hubbell said there was no objection among the independents to the sugges- tion of Theodore N. Vail for a division of territory, the plan to result ultimate ly in consolidation. Hubbell was asked if the plan had not been to effect a saving in the operation of telephone systems of the nation
 Partially he said. but back of the idea l don't think there was any par ticular intention of reducing the teIe- phone cost to the public There was no discussion of cheapening the service to the public at the meeting at which territorial division was discussed. In word. Vail's idea was that competi- tion in some districts was too severe and he was desirOus of eliminating competition"

Fletcher is under orders to take such steps as are necessary to protect foreign lives and property. This led to the talk of the possibility of landing marines and bluejackets from the American battleships and developments in the situation have been awaited with intense interest.
 Aguilar's message in reply to Fletcher's demand that no harm come to foreigners and their prop erty. said:
 Governing on constitutional basis my attitude will be to guard the interests of all foreign and do- mestic oil corporations, fulfilling the demands of civilization and not gov erned by caprice or vengeance" Officials here think that no trou- blesome complications will ensue as result of Aguilars occupation of
 
 tanks would have endangered the ives of many Americans and for elgners. Two British cruisers have been ordered to the scene. and in the meantime the United State has been asked to guard the British interests.
 Frequent conferences between bryan, Counsellor John Bassett Moore and Acting Secretary Roose- welt and two visits by the secretar1, or the state to the White House. ac- companied by Roosevelt were the outward marks of the deep interest felt in official circles on the Mexi- can situation.
