valuable acquisition to the board
of trade, and to the city of Phoenix,
if arrangements could be made to Sc

ily also the collection of birds made

board that the local exhibit shall COW

will also show what land will be re-

The introduction of citrange. d new
variety of citrus fruit, has been Sc
cured through another committee of
the board of trade. The CO.
operation of the board was given in
the introduction of sugar cane into
the valley, and the efforts of the
board were exerted in securing favor
able rates for this experiment. The
board of trade assisted the organlz-
ing of cotton growers in the various
sections of the valley, and we have
under way movement to consolidate
4 number of these different local or
CARNATIONS into one central cotton
growers body, the advantage of which
will be obvious.
Your organization assisted in the
preparation of a constitutional amend
ment which would permit the state to
issue bonds for good roads. Inc
board believes that good roads IS one
of the most important features in the
development of the state. The board
sent an exhibit of views of the val
lev to the American road congress at
at various good roads congresses held
in the states during the board of
trade year just ended. The visit of
Engineer ]. NJ Eldridge, of the de-
partment of roads, was of great ben
eft to all Arizona and the visit was
brought to a very successful conclu-
sion by the lecture held in Phoenix
some few months ago when Mr.. Ed
ridge addressed a large gathering of
members of the Legislature and 9TH
ers at the Empress theater. At this
meeting views of roads in all parts of
the world were shown, as well as
views showing road building methods.
Mr. Eldridge stated that the road
from Phoenix to the Roosevelt dam
was in his opinion the finest scenic
road in the country, and superior to
most of the world famous roads.

been prompt to recognize the import
ance of furthering local industry, and
in all instances has FASTENED to endorse
any movement for the fostering Of

board of trade. "PatrOnize Home In
dustr1" there have been placed
throughout the town, during the past
few months, a number of boost posters
urging citizens to patrOnize home mer-
chants. and we believe that this ad-
vertising. while it is purely local, has
resulted in good. The board has al
ways endorsed the idea of trade at
home, but the constitution of the
board of trade will not permit it to
endorse any individual institution. The
organization can only endorse the gen
eral idea.
Your board has recommended to the
proper officials the consolidation of
different congresses: the dry farm con-
gress, the national irrigation con-
Egress, the country life congress, the
| farm womens' congress, the trans
Mississippi commercial congress and
| several others. The board believes that
by the union of these organizations in
to one big convention much good will
result to the congresses, as well as to
| the entire western community and the
| country at large.
The board has a membership in the
national chamber of commerce and
your organization had much to do in

board has made important recOmmen-
dations to Washington regarding the

considerable time on plans for park

.SMITES THIRD TERM
FOR GOEKE
And Points Out Sprinting Quail
ties of Darke County Man
for Congress.
bradford Morning Sentinel. ]

From present indications, Darke
county will have a formidable candidate
for Congress next spring, who will put
up a lively contest against Mr. Cooke for
third term. The two term rule has
obtained in the Fourth district and there
is no special reason we can see to change
it at this time. The present incumbent
has faithfully represented the district,
so far as our observation goes, but we
have no end of equally capable and eff
cient men in the district, who feel they
should at least have a chance. Former
Clerk Ed Williams seems to be practi-
cally the unanimous choice of Darke
County Democrats, and if he consents to
make the race it will be more than in
teresting. He served two terms as
Clerk of the Courts, and that he made
good is shown by his 1000 majority for
second term, when several Republicans
carried the county by substantial plural
tiles. Ed knows everybody throughout
Old Darke and his obliging, suave dis
position makes friends of all who come
in contact with him. He is an effective
campaigner, always putting 5000 ounces
of energy into what he goes after, the
organization is behind him and things
will be doing if his hat goes into the
ring. Darke County will have no cause
to regret his election to Congress, ex-
cept that it would take him away from
US during sessions.

CORN HUSKER FINDS
ANOTHER VICTIM

Lewis Dock, son of Henry Dock, of
the west end of this township, had his
hand horribly mutilated about noon last
Saturday, when his hand was caught in
a corn husker.
The unfortunate man and his brother
John own and operate corn husker and
other machinery and were working at
the Herman Gelhaus farm when the ac-
ciden occurred. The machine had not
been working as it should and Mr.. Dock
attempted to adjust it while running. A
glove he was wearing caught in the cogs
and pulled his hand through the wheel,
so mangling the first three fingers and
thumb that amputation was necessary.
Drs. Richardson and Cordier were called
and removed all but the little finger.
The injured hand is healing nicely and
further complications are not likely.
As a result of the accident the broth
ers will dispose of the husker and other
farm devices at public sale ON November
20, notice of which will be found on page
of this edition.

CAPTURES PLUM

EX-Auditor J. l.. Morrow was last Sat
urday appointed Deputy Tax Commits
sioner of Mercer County, the new office
created by the last general assembly,
which will have full jurisdiction over the
taxing machinery of the county.
While the selection of Mr.. Morrow
came on short notice, it was generally
conceded that the plum would tall to him
after S. J. Vining got out of the race
last week.
Mr. Morrow had secured the recon-
mendation of almost every business man
of this city, who urged his claims, while
nothing more than the filing of the
application was heard from John An
dress, his opponent.
Mr.. Vining also favored Mr.. Morrow,
when it was given out he himself could
not secure the prize, but it seems he was
able to control the appointment.
Mr.. Morrow has not yet chosen his
deputies, which will very likely be two
in number, but in this it is also intimat-
ed he will follow the wishes of Mr. Vim
ing, and rumor has it that Miss MAZDA
Miller, daughter of Liveryman Frank
w. Miller, will be one of them.'
The new Tax Commissioner. elect does
not take his Office until the first of the
year, and it is probable he will withhold
his selection of deputies until that time.
The appointment of Mr.. Morrow gives
general satisfaction throughout the
county. No better selection could have
been made

Cleveland, o., Nov. 13.-This city
has partially recovered from the fierce
blizzard which paralyzed traffic and
industry and in three days caused q

Menace of the storm narrowed to
danger Of fever and pneumonia, dan
ger from snow falling from roofs, and
the possibility of floods.
Electric light service to many parts
of the city which have been dark for
three nights was partially restored.
Almost all the streetcars are running
and deliveries of the small amount of
mail which has reached the city have
commenced.
The menace of the icicles and
mounds of snow which festoon all
the downtown buildings caused police
to be stationed along the streets to
warn people to keep out near the
curb. Boy Scouts aided in this work
The bright sun started comparatively
rapid thaw Of the snow on roofs, but
small decrease in the depth of the
snow on the ground could be noticed.
The weather forecaster states that
the thawing will proceed slowly, and
without the assistance of rain, OBJ
waiting the danger of a flood in the

Columbus, o., Nov. 12.-Providing
the proper machinery for the national
movement looking to saloonless ma
tion through constitutional amend
ment, the national board of trustees
of the Anti-Saloon league set in mo-
tion work which will result in a COM
plete reorganization of the national
body.
The plan will make a coherent unit
instead of a federation A committee
is at work on a revision Of the consti-
tuition and bylaws, and these will be
amended before the present gather
ing adjourns According to one of the
workers, the purpose of the change is
to make it possible to get rid Of
drones and luke-warm workers with
in the organization
The principal change which the re-
organization of the national body will
effect will be to make the various
state superintendents appointive at
the hands of a national board of di-
rectors and responsible to the ma
tional superintendent Another fea-
ture will be a rearrangement of the
finances, whereby the Weather states
will be able to bear the burdens of
those with slenderer means. The
country will be divided into 16 dis
tricts, over each of which will be a
member of the national executive
committee.

Washington, Nov. 13.-Within few
days there will be issued a statement
setting forth the policy of the Unlted
States toward the Mexican republic.
Secretary of State Bryan made this
announcement
Whether or not the statement will
be in the form of communication TO
congress by President Wilson has not
been disclosed. but some of the diplo.
mats here believe twill be. The state.
ment has been under consideration
for several days, and in Secretary
Bryan's conferences with members OF
the diplomatic corps he had made il
plain that the forthcoming pronounce.
ment would define clearly the attitude
of the United States.
Such a statement, it is thought, not
onlywould reiterate the views that the
United States can never recognize a
government established by arbitrary
force, but will give it's reasons for re
fusing to recognize any acts of the
new congress either as to the validity
of loans or concessions, and point out
the steps necessary to a solution OF
the problem
1t was apparent that developments
in various foreign capitals brought
encouragement to administration of |
ficials, and there was feeling among
them that the desire of the United |
States to prevent interference by the
powers virtually has been accom-.
plished.
Evidence is accommodating that
policy of cooperation with Carranza
and his forces is likely to be the one
adopted in the event Of this govern

1t is believed here now that William
Bayard Hale the writer, is represent

capacity in communicating with Car
rama. Hale probably will report to

views on the strength of the Constitu
