(Continued) A KAN SAS MAN

Another late testimony from Judge Schoonover of Kansas, confirms the statements of the governor, he says: Prohibition is no longer a matter for debate in Kansas. The success of prohibition is recognized. No man in Kansas can be a candidate for public office unless he stands for a dry state The prohibition laws are now enforced in Kansas. It is just as easy now to convict a man for illegal liquor selling, as for stealing a horse. ..
 From a moral viewpoint it is true beyond question that prohibition has had beneficial effect on Kansas. Crime has been reduced tremendously Poverty has decreased. There are 24 counties in Kansas in which there are no poOrhouses and eight counties where there are no inmates for the poor houses.
 From a business viewpoint prohibi tion has been beneficial to Kansas Despite the fact that there was a dis astrous drought in Kansas in 1913, there was more money on deposit in the banks of that state at the close of the last year, per capita, than there was in any other state in the union"
 I have heard from good authority that they had 45 empty jails for rent in that state.

 SLUMBER ON THE TRAIN
Trade Board Wants Sleeping Car Hooked to No. at WinsIow to
 Carry Fair Visitors

Suggested as an immense improve ment over ordinary travel conditions in the north, the board of trades request that the Santa F'e take to hooking the Phoenix car on No. at Winslow, so it will not be necessary to lay over or change ears at Ash Fork. has received an added weight now that the board can point to the heavy fair and mine congress traffic that is due in Novem- Der and December.
 The car now lays over in Ash Fork from about noon to the middle of the night, when passengers from the east are compelled to arise and make their way to a new train. By leaving the car hundred miles further up the line, the Phoenix bound tourists could retire early in the evening, or as soon after No. passes the division point as the dusky porter could be prevailed upon to make up the berths, and from then on, nothing would disturb the Phoenician slumber until the trickling of water in the canals and the singing of birds in the tree tops aroused them n the deWy morn.

GREAT IMPROVEMENT
 IN FREIGHT SERVICE
Record of Nine Days Freight Shipment
 From New York

Many Phoenix merchants no doubt still remember the time when they waited thirty days and more for their merchandise from New York and vii cinty. commonly known as New Eng land and Seaboard territory. and while this length of time has been greatly reduced in recent years the service now accorded freight shipments from these points IS almost equal to passenger service.
 Quite a number of Phoenix mor chants now claim to have received shipments from New York in nine days via Morgan Line of steamers to Gal weston. thence via Southern Pacific package car direct to Phoenix, a car load consisting of approximately 2O,- 00G pounds of merchandise having been received here on october 11th which left the docks in New York on October Sth via that route. This is but two days longer time than is accorded pas sengers from the same section and three days less than the average time that has been accorded freight ship ments in the recent past.

OFFER 4 REFUGE FOR
 PEASANTS OF BELGIUM
Board of Trade Suggests Bringing Homeless Ones to This Broad
 Land as CoIonists

Offering an Arizona refuge for Bel gian peasants, rendered homeless by the destruction of their farm commun- ities during the German invasion, the Phoenix board of trade yesterday took the lead among all such organizations in the United States, when it started a movement for an international invita- ton to be extended to European un- fOrtunatcs.
 The matter was discussed at yester- days meeting of the directors, when it was suggested that special commit tee be appointed to take up with the state government inquiries into meth eds of conveying the invitation through the foreign relations department of the federal government to the afflicted ones in the war zone
 "Arizona's hospitality can be as boundless as it is interested" remarked Secretary Welch. We have a great deal of land, and few farmers Bel Sium, right at this time. appears to have no land at all, but plenty of good sturdy citizens who are dispossessed of every bit of their landed property by the invading armies. Let us regulate supply and demand, and see if there is not something in this colonization idea. We have brought colonies of discon- tented Russians and they are turning out to be valuable citizens There are Slavs, Germans, Italians. Greeks, and they all add somewhat to the wealth of this, their adopted country"

It was a killing for the newest state, and such killing as was never before accomplished at a national convention. Just how big and complete it was is best described by Prof A. M Mc'Omie of the University experiment station, who was in charge of the exhibit. Prof. McOmie returned yesterday morning, along with the baggage car full of the exhibits
 People who saw the exhibit say there Was never such a complete and varied show of farm products brought from one state before. l really forget just how many prizes we did take, but We brought back ribbon by the bolt, and then of course the big cup donated by the Chicago business men for the best state exhibit, and about $200 in cash
 Some of the things Arizona won prizes on are cotton, first and sweep stakes; broOmcorn, third prize; first on potatoes and the spud sweepst
 first on citrus fruits. first on pears, second for the best five box apple eX- hibit, first on grapes, ates and olives, first on cabbage turnips and cane. And so many more I don't remember them all right now.
 T want to say that this exhibit was worth everything it cost us And we got off pretty cheaply, at that, cOnsid ering the cash prizes We won. The turnstiles recorded the fact that 125, persons saw the show, fifteen thousand per day. All these people saw Arizo- mas exhibit, and it constituted the best advertisement we have ever had. As soon as we saw how well We classed up with the other states, we adopted slogan. Proving Arizona Isn't Desert, and it took great.
 Special gratitude is due the Santa F'e people for the way they took care of our car They did everything in their power to facilitate the moving Of the exhibits and some Of their big men from the Chicago office came and Vis- ited our booths Congratulations for the success of the show are due to but three out of the fourteen counties of the state. This is another thing we tried to bring out-namely that all this wonderful exhibit was the product of but three counties, Maricopa, Coconino and Yuma.
 Already the effect of our cleanup is becoming apparent. I noticed today that a family of five persons who saw our exhibit are even now on their way to locate near Buckeye, Wher~

 The advertising committee of the board of trade has taken up MT Earle's proposition, to consider his coming here for a second and much more pre- tentious job of filming the finishes of the auto and motorbike road races and the track contests in which those two classes of speed purveyors will be seen.

WANT BETTER METHOD
 0F DIVIDING BOXES

Difficulties over the apportioning of boxes at the state fair will be regulated this year, if the suggestion of the board of trade for an inquiry and revision of methods is followed by the fair commission. At the directors meeting yesterday, the subject was brought up in connection with the oth- CT fair matters, and discussed pretty fully.
 There has always been a sort of in- ability to find enough boxes for all who apply, and this trouble is said to have been aggravated by the poor method of chasing.

Besides the drought spoken of they had a great fire; but it was caused by the burning of a carload of mOrtg ages on the farms of Kansas.
 What do the members of the Arizona League think of that for an 'untried and untested" experiment?
 1 agree with the gentlemen that we should not experiment any longer. The license law has been proven here and elsewhere to be a dismal failure. But OF the other hand we should enact time tried and often tested, strict prohibitory law that will put us on the map with Kansas, and the other pro- gressive states. Will we do it?

Recipe Of Sage and Sulphur
and Nobody VIII Know.

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly compound.
ed. brings back the natural color and
lustre to the hair when faded, streaked
or gray; also ends dandruff, itching
scalp and stops falling hair. Years
ago the only way to get this mixture
was to mako 1t at home, which is
mussy and troublesome.
Nowadays we simply ask at any
drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sui
phur Hair Remedy" You will get a
large bottle for about SO cents. Every.
body uses this old, famous recipe, be-
cause, no one can possibly tell that
you darkened your hair as 1t does 1t
so naturally and evenly. You dampen
a sponge or soft brush with 1t and
draw this through your hair, taking
one small strand at time; by morn
ing the gray hair disappears, and
after another application or two, your
hair becomes beautifully dark, thick
and glossy and you look years younger.
