ELEVATOR PROJECT
MET OPPOSITION
Efforts Of First Ward Residents
to Force Change Of Site
Were Resented.

The Willmar Farmers Union Eleva-
tor Company has under way the erec-
tion of a new up-to-date grain house
on the site of the old farmers ele-
vator. It will have facilities for
cleaning the grain and handling the
same in the most approved fashion.
The Improvements will cost the Com
pany round sum of money, but the
members felt that they needed and
wanted the better facilities to proper
ly care for the large amount of grain
that they handle each year.
Unfortunately this rebuilding has
country and some of our city peo-
pie. People living in First ward were
opposed to the rebuilding of the ele-
vator on the old site because it OBJ
structs the view of the tracks near
the Seventh Street crossing, render
ing it more dangerous. A petition
was presented to the city council last
Monday evening demanding that the
building be prevented. The country
people were prepared, however, and
came in their autos about seventy
five strong, including all Of the in
fluential farmers of the neighborhood,
and thru spokesman, Hon. P. H. Frye
and others, INDUCED in some very
plain talk. They saw in the movement
only a disposition to harass the far
mers. The First Warders were there,
and Mr.. K. T. Rykken spoke for them.
A farmer himself, and thoroly in SYM
pathy with the farming interests, he
felt that there was a regrettable mis-
understanding. It developed finally
that there was not so much oppo-
sition to the elevator as to the coal
! sheds which are built out to the
crossing, and these sheds are not
owned by the elevator company at
all.
Both parties had negotiated with
the railroad company, but the farmers
had secured the permission of the
company to go ahead and rebuild

right-of-way as they had planned.
From their point of view the farmers
cannot see why new up-to-date
building will not be preferable on the
site to the old dilapidated one. There
was no protests from any source as
to any added fire risk by reason of
the new building. The matter will
no doubt be adjusted to the satisfac-
tion of all concerned, and it is to be
regretted that the clash occurred.
AS to the safety of the crossing,
that is matter to take up with the
railroad company. With the growth
and increasing traffic of the city this
crossing needs to be safe-guarded in
some way, and it is much better that
it be done now instead of waiting
for some tragedy to awaken the au-
thorities to the necessity for the
same. Some sort of warning signals
Of approaching engines should be in
stalled or watchmen be employed.

The Strength of the Armies.
Germany, with 316 ships in her navy
and an estimated war strength Of land
forces amounting to 2,25O,O00 men,
leads the nations involved In military
power Russia IS next, with 166 ships
and an estimated fighting force Of
1,845,000 men. Austria has ia ships
and can probably put 100000 men in
the field If necessary.
OF the sea fighters Germany has SO
battleships to Russia's 8 and Austria's q
13; 103 torpedo boats Of all classes to
Russia's 203 and Austria's r.; % sub
marines to Russia's 20 and Austria's 6.
The rest Of the naval strength is con-
fined to cruisers, eliminating the non.
fighting craft In the three navies.
Russia's standing army in peace is
not much less in numbers than her wal
strength, being 100000 men. Germa-
ny supports 872,OOO men In her army
at all times, Austria has 425,881 and
Servia 3O,O38. All require continuous
military service, Russia's demands be-
ing the greatest, with term of from
three to four and one-third years.
During the last few years Russia'a
entire army has been reorganized, re
armed and reclothed, and new navy
is in course of construction.
While Austria can put an army Of
100000 In the field, there are also
available for duty 100000 unor'
ganized men.
Servia has a field army Of only about
10000, with reserve imperfectly or
ganized Of 10000 more Of total
population of 100000. These figures
however. do not tell the whole story
Servia belongs to race of fighters
All the men and nearly all the women
know how to shoot and to defend
themselves.

room S25 per year, total of $213 Books. stationery and other necessary college expenses would bring this amount to $250 or s275 per year Many students pursue their college studies at a cost not to exceed $400 per year and others do it very com fortably on $500. The sentiment of the campus is against free eXpendi ture of money. Most students do not have liberal amounts to spend. About 50 per cent of the young men are earning their way and some of the young women. The self-supporting student is moral support to any institution with which he is connect ed. Ordinarily he does good work making the most of his time and energy, and in an institution like the University of Arizona the one who earns his way has no loss of social standing. Several self-suppOrting students have been entrusted by their fellow students with the most respon- sible offices.

JOHNSON SAYS

misguided as to believe that if prog
 ressives within the republican party
 should make contest and win at
 the ensuing primary, this black horse
 cavalry will support the successful
 candidates. If these things are so
 why should we pretend an alliance
 under one party name that cannot
 exist in reality between these ex-
 ploiters of the public on the one
 hand and the progressives on the
 other.
 'Progressives would arouse all who are living in the past or acting in bygone age or voting from habit or tradition to the glorious work of car rying to final fruition in the wond-
 rous empire of the west all that for which Abraham Lincoln struggled and died.
 And how have We of California ressive? Let the record speak. Progressives took a government which had been merely a part of a ! stupendous corporation and its politi- cal machine and gave it back to the

ONE WAS GOOD ENOUGH.

Robert Bridges, the new English pOet-laureate, is fastidious critic, and seeks little to admire in com monplace verse.
 A poet once brought to MT Bridges two very long odes that he proposed to submit to the English Review.
 "Fll read them both aloud" the young man said, "and afterward you will tell me which is in your opinion the more likely to be accept ed by the English Review"
 Poor MT. Bridges sighed and set tied himself in his chair, and the ether in his loud, harsh voice. read the first ode. It was very long, and at it's conclusion MT. Bridges leaped to his feet and said briskly:
 Now, my young friend, I can ad- wise you. Send the other ode to the Review"

RICE CONCERT SUCCESS
 WILL BE REPEATED

The Leon Rice concert last night at Central Methodist church was such hit that another of the same sort will be held tonight at the same place Both MT. Rice and his wife Jennie Cesare Rice created a wonderful impression with the audi ence that packed the auditorium Of Central church to the doors.
 MT Rice was, as had been pre- dicted generous with his audience. Not only was he pleased to charm them with a beautiful exposition or American song, but he seemed will ing to sing for them in answer to their vociferous cheers. with as great q pleasure as the large audience had in hearing him sing.
 Without doubt the young man showed himself an artist from the opening effort He held his audi ence spellbound with his ability to interpret the gems of song he chose for the evenings program, and when he would complete number, the applause would break forth in per feet ovation, and when he would complete number. the applause would break forth in perfect ova- tion With such an effect from his first performance it was compara- lively easy to persuade him to stop over another day and repeat the per formance this evening.

ASYLUM SEWER
 ID BE ABA1EO
Board of Control Decides to Take Immediate Action to Clean Up Cause of Re cent Complaint = State Occulist to Be Employed

The sensitive nostrils of the farm CTS about the state asylum will have to stand the smells of the open sewer south of the asylum but a lit tie longer. The gentle winds of the desert will blow across their former wastes from the asylum and go on to oppress the traveller on the roads thereabout no longer There will be mo more visits by one neighbor to another for the purpose of framing and signing petitions and for hold ing indignation meets when the smell has been particularly strong during the twenty-four hours pre- rlous. The state board of control ordered yesterday that the petition of the farmers asking that the nuisance be done away with. be at tended to at once, and that ar engagements whereby the sewer could be closed up be completed
 The petition was served on the board some two weeks past. It was the second of the same sort of com plaints to be filed in a year. and came to the boards attention imme diately on that account, the former petition having been acted on but not sufficiently satisfactory to the several farmers in the district The complaint of the farmers alleges that the sewer from the asylum running into an open field south of the in stitution is not alone a danger to health but is noxious and disagree able when the wind is blowing or when the weather happens to be little chilly and clowdy.
 That an occulist shall be supplied the industrial school who shall be at the institution at all times and at the service of the inmates was the unanimous decision of the board yes terday and the matter of securing one was given to the sec retary for his immediate attention Desks and other schools supplies needed at the institution were order cd on the standing contract
 The plans for the auditorium to be constructed at the state asylum were approved, and it was decided to advertise for bids on galvanized pipe and salvarsan for the asylum, on supplies of many sorts, and on printing the state officials reports. The bids and contract of the Arizona Hardware company were approved. and other routine matters settled The calendar was cleared of all hear ings when the members of the board finished their work.

THE ANNUAL COST
 OF COLLEGE COURSE
Remarkably Small Expense of Resi-
 dence at University of Arizona

The New York Sun is interested to ascertain the expenses of attending various colleges in the country. The presidents of Harvard, Princeton Dartmouth, Brown and Hamilton concur in an estimate of $700 a year. President Lowel of Harvard states that the unavoidable expenses at his institution are tuition, $50; board, $50; room, s54, making a total of S354. At least s46 more would be re- quired for books, stationery and la boratory fees, making the sum $4O0 per year for unavoidable expenses. He believes $500 would be a com fortabe margin for clothing, wash ing and other necessary expenses and for d reasonable amount of recrea- ton.
 President Hibben, of Princeton, shows from his college records, that the actual expenses at Princeton range from $10O to $900 per year, and presents the following table of amounts spent by groups of students:
