trcts and wineries in the northern states While the north produces great volume of distilled liquor, whisky producing is commonly regarded as of the great industries of the south.
 We have heard of objecting to the pro- posed beer and wine suggesting that it should be made lower. But it has been suggested that there is valid reason why the whisky should not be made correspondingly. .higher Beer, wine and whisky the best producers, for two reasons. A tax them is real burden upon the consumer of them, and it is the consumer who always pays the tax The people who want these commodities will have them regardless of price. In the cases of some men, the higher the price the less the consumption, but just much money will be spent for them in the end. The higher the tax the greater the contribution to the government and the fewer headaches for the whose money does not go as Tar as it would if prices lower The producers and distributors alone would suffer- but a war tax presumes that somebod. shall suffer.

MISS WHITFIELD SEES
 PARENT TEACHERS
Progressive Candidate Appears Before
 Osborn Association

Miss Sarah M. Whitfield, nominee for the office of superintendent of schools. presented her candidacy be- fore the osborn Parent Teacher As sociation at its first meeting of the school year yesterday afternoon. In a clever address, Miss Whitfield clearly defined the duties of the of- flee and her own experiences m the public schools of this and other states. Women she argued were more in touch with children than men and their very understanding better fitted them to solve the prob lens of the girls and boys. While her name appears on the progressive ticket, Miss Whitfield is conducting a non-partisan campaign and has been warmly received whenever she has addressed the different womens organizations. No official action was taken by the Osborn circle al though she was heartily endorsed by the individual members.
 Seventy five were present at the gathering and of this number twen- ty were registered as new members. Ii was decided to continue the noon- day luncheons inaugurated last spring and for this purpose Mrs C. B. Woods, president, appointed the following committee to confer with the school trustees: Mrs. McQuesten, Mrs. Claud Bergman, Mrs. Barnes, Mrs. I. V. Stewart and Mrs. Me DOnold

PROGRESSIVELY
 IN 0LD FINAL
Assurance is Given to Mem bers of the Party There of a Heavy Vote for the State and the County Tickets

Pinal is all right from the point of view of the progressives. The members of that party are in earnest over there and they have given as surance that there will be progress sive majorities to be counted on the night of November B.
 Chairman MacBean of the progress sive state committee returned yester- day from a tour of the county in the company of Dr. Nelson the progress sive candidate for United States senator. In some sections they 1 found some dissatisfaction with the adoption by the party council of the dry amendment plank but they were assured that the enthusiasm for the ticket was unabated.
 l At Florence and Casa Grande pro- gressivism is particularly strong and Chairman MacBean was informed that of the 150 voters at Superior all but twelve would vote the progress sive ticket.
 Frank H. Parker, candidate for tax commissioner, and P. H. Hayes for the supreme court returned from Florence yesterday. They saw many of the voters of the county, for the county court is now in session. They were assured that they would be well
 supported in all parts of the county. | H. G. Richardson the progressive candidate for county attorney added considerably to his strength this week
 by winning verdict for the defense
 in the hard fought O'Neill Burns
 murder case at Florence.

0RME |S BACK FROM MEETING . 0F COMMISSION
Water Users Organize h. terstate Irrigation Com mission With Many Wise Provisions i'll Platform Cooperation Urged

A uniform administrative policy for all reclamation projects, the continual tion of the reclamation service as a great feature of national work, the completion of projects now started and the immediate construction of others, the substitution of a continu- ous cultivation clause for the resi- dence clause in the reclamation law and many other very progressive measures are outlined in the platform adopted by the Interstate Irrigation Commission. formed at Helena, Mon tana, last week. President John P. Orme of Phoenix, returned yesterday from the session, at which he helped organize the commission.
 The commission will be composed of two members appointed by the governors of each state, one by the secretary of agriculture, and two by the secretary of the interior. Ira P. Engehart of Washington is presi- dent under the present organization.
 MT. Orme reports a hearty spirit of
  and seemingly intense desire to harmoniZe the work of the associa- tions with that of the government. He also brings word of extremely cold and stormy weather all through out the north.
 The Resolutions
 Be it resolved, That We endorse the broad and comprehensive policies or Secretary Lane in his effort to develop the national resources of the west and also the prompt and efficient manner in which the business of the interior department is being dispatched. Be it further resolved, That we commend the reclamation service for it's excellent and efficient work in the construction of the reclamation pro- jects and recognizing in it the possi- bility of future reclamation, we recon = mend that it be made the agency through which future irrigation works l be constructed.
 Endorse Proposed Loans Be it further resolved, That we en- dorse the suggestion of Secretary Lane that congress authorize an additional loan of 00,000,0O0 to the reclamation fund in order, that the reclamation ser vice may complete the projects now un- l finished and other meritorious ones land that said funds draw interest at ] the rate not exceeding per centum
Arizona republican., 1914-10-08

per annum and that a project in which said funds shall be used shall be charged an additional l per centum per annum during such period as may be necessary for said l per centum to liouidate the portion of said loan used in the construction of said project.
 That said payments shall not be re- quired until three years after the com pleticn of the works and that the inter est during said period shall be added to the construction costs of the works.
 Be it resolved, That the federal gov ernment and the arid land states of the west cooperate in the reclamation, and with that end in view, We recommend:
 "First-A uniform district irrigation law in the various states to facilitate federal loans, and to this end that a committee of one member from each state be appointed to draft such law to be considered at the next meeting of this commission. to be held in Wash ington. D. C., about December first next. That this special committee con- fer with the proper federal officers in the preparation of a law to be sub mitted to the various state legislatures.
 "Second-That all state and govern ment lands included within the boun- daries of districts organized under such uniform law shall be subject to the same rules, regulations and changes as lands in private ownership.
 Government Should Build
 Be it resolved. That all water rights in the arid states are most advantage ously and properly conserved and de- veloped by the federal government. and that all storage reservoirs shall be constructed and perpetually owned by the government, which shall make such charges against the stored water as are equitable, but the construction cost of such works shall be classed and consid- cred as national work.
 For Speedy Improvement
 Be it resolved, That we believe the speedy improvement of lands under all irrigation projects to be a matter of vital importance, and that under pres ent conditions a rigid improvement and continuous cultivation condition should be substituted for the residence re- quirement in the United States recla- nation law.
 Be it resolved, That suitable laws

A Suggestion

1t has been suggested in con-
nection with the matter of per-
manent quarters for the Board
of Trade of Roanoke Rapids
Township that the growth of the
organization would be furthered
and its scope expanded by having
permanent quarters fitted up
somewhat like a reading room or
library and open to members
several nights in the week.
The above idea is a splendid
one, but we believe to confine it
to the membership of the Board
of Trade is too narrow a scope.
Roanoke Rapids needs and needs
badly a Reading Room and
Library Association along the
lines of the Rosemary Reading
Room & Library Association,
Although it is probable that
only a few of the citizens of
Roanoke Rapids proper are aware
of the fact, Rosemary has a
reading room and library that
would do credit to a town many
times its size. This organization
has a library of about seven
hundred volumes, we'll selected,
takes about fifteen of the best
magazines and periodicals, four
or five weekly newspapers, two
daily newspapers, and is open to
its members six times a week.
The membership fee is merely
a nominal one ($1.00 per year,
the deficit being borne by the
Rosemary Manufacturing Com
pany. The Reading Room is
handsomely furnished, equipped
with writing desks, arm chairs,
is well lighted and screened, has
electric fans and offers to its
members a greater amount of
reading matter under more COM
Portable circumstances than any
private library in this community.
Such an organization could be
and should be started in Roanoke
Rapids for the benefit of the
citizens of this town. 1t probab-
ly could not start off as fully
equipped as the Rosemary AS

TYPHOID FEVER MUST GO
So Decreed by Whole Time county
Health Officers

The eleven counties in North
Carolina employing wholetime
health officers are now feeling
the forces of the anti" COM
paigns at work in their borders.
Typhoid is preventable disease
and typhoid must go, they say.
DR.. H. H. Utley, of Johnston
County, breaks the record by
vaccinating $50 people in 300
minutes. DR.. B. E. Washburn,
of Nash County, during the month
Of July gave 2,5S2 NEGOTIATIONS
for typhoid fever while DR. E. F.
Strickland, of Forsyth, has ad-
ministered 1923 doses. DR.. B.
w. Page, of Robson County,
says: Il could use 5000 to 1000
doses within the next three or
four weeks if the serum is avail
able" From DR.. G. M. Cooper,
Of Sampson County, comes this
statement: Il have engage
ments for every day for three
weeks ahead, with two or three
exceptions, and all on request of
the people themselves for the
treatment. Vaccination against
smallpox, free, more than 1,500
persons to date since January"
At the hands of these and
other wide-awake health officials,
the chance for having typhoid
will be reduced to the minimum.
Its doom is inevitable, and with
typhoid are going hookworm and
smallpox. What these officials
are doing for community health
improvement is just beginning
to be known and felt. Not yet
have they come fully into their
own.

sociation, as it required some
time to bring that organization
to its present state, but a start
could be made in that direction.
Now that building operations are
in progress in Roanoke Rapids,
suitable rooms for such an organi-
cation could be easily secured and
there is noreason why an organi-
cation of this kind should not be
started in the near future. In
fact this is the most advantage
Gus time for a start, Two hun
dred and fifty dollars would pro-
baby cover the cost of enough
equipment to start with, although
the full value of the equipment
now in use in the Rosemary
Reading Room is several times
this amount, exclusive of the
cost of the building:
A Reading Room and Library
Association for Roanoke Rapids
would bring the people together
more closely, would provide a
pleasant and beneficial recreation
for the young people of the town
and would provide an opportunity
for ambitious young people OF
limited means to broaden their
minds and increase their educa
ton by judicious reading.
The effectiveness of the organi-
cation, of course, would depend
a great deal upon the plan of
organization, the funds available
and the choice Of a librarian.
Properly organized and support
ed it would undoubtedly prove of
immense benefit to the people of
the town along social and educa-
tional lines.
