WILL DISCUSS HOTEL PLANS

Now that there no longer remains any doubt that the Southern Pacific railroad will route eastern people go- ing to the San Francisco exhibition via Globe to Phoenix, etc, passing through Mesa. there is something do- ing here and the Commercial Club is getting busy On Thursday night the members of the club intend to get together and stay together until provision is made in some way for the erection of a real hotel right here in Mesa. In order to get he' share of the business that is to be had through contact with the east ern tourist, a hotel will be necessary. Business men realize the need and the opportunity and grass will not again be allowed to grow before there is something doing and d good hotel is on the line.

GIVES PROHIBITION TALK

Mir. J. T. Lesueur, former state president, gave a lecture Monday night on Our Duty as Latter Day Saints to Work for Prohibition" The address was delivered at a meeting of the order of priesthood at the chapel and was attended by large number of the order. From the be- ginning to the end the discourse was listened to with closest attention and made telling mark for good. Thee is no doubt about the stand the Nor mons take on the question of prohi- = bition, but the purpose of the address was to arouse enthusiastic and az gressive activity on behalf of the cause. Mir. Lesueur proves his right to his reputation as an able and forceful speaker

MESA
CARLOADS
 MESA CANTAL0UPES
Shipped East Tuesday Morning Will
 Net Farmers $125,000.

It was three o'clock yesterday cantaloupes had been loaded on the refrigerator cars and the shipment for Monday made the largest ship ment of the season thus far There was special melon train that pulled out of Mesa yesterday morning con- taining twenty-five carloads of can taloupes consigned to eastern mar kets. This was the heaviest train load of the season. but the melon commission men hope to equal the shipment again before the close of the shipping season.
 Daily there come new surprises in the melon fields and people around Mesa are led to realize new facts about cantaloupes. There was some uncertainty as to just what the sea sons crop would measure up to and some even felt that the estimated $50 car loads would not materialize This seems to be no longer the sub ject of doubt and it is expected that this will prove d record season both
 
 the stock
 The eastern market has maintained a strong tone throughout and the prices have held up an average straight through that will net the farmers a clear profit of $1OO a crate. This means that the melon crop around Mesa will absolutely net the farmers around one hundred and twenty five thousand dollars clear cash. Some of the older heads esti- mate that there will be a clear pro- fit 10 the farmers of two hundred thousand dollars. Whichever figure is correct. there is no small amount of satisfaction being felt over the outcome of the shipping season Ranchers and others have express ed continually their pleasure with the manner in which the commission men have handled the crop and ! their relations have been most agree able. It is beyond question that all have co-operated for the genera good of everybody concerned

the least important of the lot being a fine grade of watermelons. This morning MT. Barnett sent to the Commercial club roms a fine speci- men of melon. weighing 31 pounds. It is not probable, however, that the secretary of the club will permit the melon to remain long on exhibition. He has too intimate knowledge of what use a large, juicy product of that kind can be best applied. MT. Barnett will be remembered even though the melon should disappear
