past month, and he expects to leave
there December II in the Manchuria.
In the meantime work OF clearing
the drydock site has been commenced
at Pearl Harbor with a comparatively
small working force. " 49,.
Although a large amount of the
debris was cleared away after the big
blow up at the dock" said r. w. At.
kinson, secretary or the Hawaiian
Dredging Co., 1T is necessary to do a
great deal of clearing and dredging
before what might be termed perma-
nent construction work can be started.
We are dredging the inboard end of.
the dock and 1t will probably be six
or eight months before pen manent
work on the ship basin Is started

REMOVING THE SALOON TAINT.

- 4 - - ? . -
It is highly significant of the rapid growth
Of temperance sentiment on the coast that the
grape growing interests of California are plan
ming to get away from the saloon faint" that
clings to their business.
According to the California papers, far
reaching measures framed with the intention of
divorcing the grape growing industry from the
saloon win be brought before the next legisla-
ture for passage BY the California Grape Grow
ers' Association. sps
The enactment of an anti-treat law will be
asked. Midnight and Sunday closing also will
be sought, but perhaps the most drastic of the
measures framed is one which seeks to make it
illegal for any wine maker, brewer, distiller or
wholesaler to have any financial interest in a
saloon.
Other legislation which will be sought by the
grape growers to stem the tide of prohibition
in the state is !. n
County option except in cities OF 5000 or
more population, and one saloon for each thou
sand inhabitants in licensed territory.

CARRIERS ASK
 COOPERATION
Early Morning Deliverers of Republican Address Communication to Circu- lation Manager Relative
 to Kicks on Non-Delivery

Look for your paper every morning. It maybe that the carrier boy is not able to place it in just the same place every morning, and it may be also that the wind has come up and blown it few feet away. The carrier boys do not Intentionally miss you. They feel badly when a kick comes into the of flee. They feel the need of co-opera- tion in making the Republican service to it's patrons the best and SureSt that it is possible to make it.
 Recently the wind has Whiffed little severe in the early morning hours, and in consequence, the morning paper that should be reposing in. it's accus- toned place when you get up in the morning is not there, Result, a tele- phone call to the Republican office, and bunch of chiding from the circu- lation manager to the carrier boy on that route.
 The boys have been debating the matter for the past week and finally decided what to do. The following let ter to the circulation manager is the earnest of their meeting.
 Mr E. R. Powell, Circulation Manager, Arizona Republican,
 Phoenix, Arizona.
 Dear Sir
 We, the undersigned, carrier boys of the Arizona Republican herewith re- quest you to have this published to en- courage all subscribers of the Repub lican to kindly look earnestly for their paper every morning, before they reg ister complaint
 We boys are held responsible for all complaints and irregularities in deliv cry We have recently received com plaints from subscribers and when we called upon them personally to find out the reason the paper we had left was not received, We were able to pick the paper up and show that if a search had been made just few feet or so out of the regular spot, where we try to throw it every morning, they would not have had to telephone the office to have an other copy sent out.
 We do not try to miss any sub scriber Intentionally and no matter how hard we try we cannot always get the paper in exactly the same spot every day, but subscribers could make kick until they are sure they have missed their paper.
 Your ever faithful carriers, (Signed.)
