ABE KORR|CK RETURNS
 FROM BUYING TRIP

Abe Korrick returned yesterday from two months buying trip for the New York Store. Though Mir. Korrick made New York his headquarters, buy ing operations took him to Philadelphia and Boston. The great volume of stock he purchased could not have been collected in less time. For days and days it has been arriving. case after case, more than could have been stored and displayed in the present store and it is not all here yet. MT Korrick found business improving in the east and in his opinion the improvement is steadily extending across the country. In making his purchases he evidently had faith that the coming season in Phoenix is going to be a good one.
 The business of moving into the New Korrick building is going on and it is expected that the present quarters will be abandoned and that business will be humming in the new and handsome building within the next ten days.

BOOZE AND BUSINESS

Not many months ago d distressing accident occurred in one of our big in- dustrial plants that, in respect to safe- ty, is regarded as model. The ma chinery in this plant is guarded with the most serviceable devices, the print cd rules are clear, the foreman vigilant
 Yet, suddenly, there were horrifying cries, and the shrieks of one in agony
 The machinery was stopped and a
 mangled body drawn forth. The vic
 tim was so horribly nangled that he
 died in a few minutes.
 Following their invariable rule, the
 managers of the establishment called
 for an unbiased report on the accident.
 scientific expert made an investiga-
 ton. He reported that the machinery
 was as safe as it could be made, that the discipline was good, that every thing within the factory was com
 mendable.
 His investigation did not end there. Finding no cause for the tragedy with in the factory, the engineer went out side in his inquiry. Nearby he found a saloon. Also he learned that during the noon hour, and just preceding the fatal accident, the dead man had vis- ited the saloon and indulged in several drinks. His eye had become just dim enough, his hand unsteady enough, to spell death for him. An unsteady lurch as his fellows testified, had thrown him into the whirling machinery.
 In another industrial establishment two men were killed and three badly
 maimed by slip 'on the part of the crane operator. He too was skilled and competent. But this time he start ed the machinery a few seconds too soon. The huge masses of metal about to be swung by the crane went crash ing down on the five men below. Again there was an expert inquiry, and once more the finding was that during the luncheon hour, the operator had slipped

out of the shop and across an alley to a saloon.
 To quote in this matter that staunch champion of human rights, the Phila- delphia North American:
 There was a time-and not so very long ago, either-When it was cheaper for the great industries to grind up human beings than to install safety devices and employ experts to find the causes of accidents and guard against further accidents. But that day is past. The damages assessed in the courts for deaths and injuries in in- dustry have laid new burden of ex- pense upon the owners This is true in spite of those useful but barbaric devices of legalsm, contributory neg ligence' and Fellow servant clause and in spite of torturous court proced- ure Once five thousand dollar yer
 dict for a slain worker would have
 startled the community; today awards
 of three and four times that amount
 create little comment.
 But a stronger reason for the solici- tude of industry for it's human raw
 material lies in the imminence of an effective workingman's compensation ' law which will sweep aside all the ob-
 structions of legal procedure and pro- vide automatically for fixed payments | in settlement for death or disablement. It is to prepare for the inevitable sys- tenn that the arrangements of big in-
 dustries are showing such zeal in pro-
 noting safety and seeking the causes of acidents.
 i That is why the saloon is going Machinery is guarded, safety devices | are installed, human ingenuity exerted
 to the utmost to guard the worker, and
 yet accidents continue. This campaign i of the manufacturers against alcohol 1 is one for safety first While the Sd i loon exists there can be no safety. Hence the saloon is doomed" LEWIS EDWIN THESIS.

 GREAT WAR PICTURE
Pictures of Activities of German Troops Both on French and
 Russian Frontier

Declaring that the picture which IS to be shown at the Plaza today con- tains the first actual scenes shown in America from the seat of the great war now waging in Europe, and also declaring d willingness to back this with a written guarantee of $10,000, a certain great feature film company of the United States is sending all over the country a series of films known as the "Kai- ser's Challenge;" Manager Cavaness given in the advance literature or the picture is very interesting and if correct will undoubtedly show the first scenes of not only the engage ments of the Germans and the French but also of the Germans and the Russians
 Of course the kaiser is the cente. of the picture nearly at all times, and many of the pictures in which he appears were not taken at the front but at Berlin while he was either reviewing the troops or con- ferring with the high military au- tnorities of his empire. Howeve. these pctures are also very interest ing as they show the troops that were since sent to the front and which have been engaged in heavy fighting the while. The pictures are actual of the German regiments leav ing for the French and Russian iron tiers.
 A picture is shown that pu-poTts to be that of the French aeroplane and the German Zeppelin when Garros drove his machine through the sides of the great airship, completely wrecking it, and giving his own life fantry on both French and Russian

 STATE WIDE PROHIBITION

The very important issue of state- wide prohibition has been raised. A campaign in favor of a constitutional amendment will be shortly instituted. This. like all other important ques- tions has two sides. on each of which are found honest and intelligent per- sons.
 The Republican has decided to pro- vide for reasonable discussion of this issue in it's pages, allowing to each side at least half column daily for signed articles, for which there will be no charge. No anonymous article will be published.

MOST NOTABLE OF THE
 RIVERSIDE NIGHTS

Two events of unusual interest are scheduled for Riverside park tonight. In the moving picture amphitheatre, in addition to the picture of 'Lu- cille Love, the Girl of Mystery the Marvellous Montecons will hold forth. This troupe of seven acrobatS, con- tortionists and slack wire walkers come with the highest recommenda- tions. They are said to be excep t;onally clever performers and the slack wire artist has been engaged for Barnum and Bailey's circus next season. On account of the lengthen- ing of the bill the movies will start promptly at 7:45 and the Montecon troupe will appear immediately after the two reels of Lucille Love-" only one performance will be given during the evening.
 In the dancing pavilion at 10 o'clock w. l.. King and a young lady who is known as one of the most artistic dancers in Phoenix will give a demonstration of the new Castle polka, the latest of the modern dances, which is causing so much comment and rapidly becoming one of the most popular dances in the east.
 On Sunday afternoon, after the ball game and bronco busting, there will be a slack wire exhibition over the big swimming pool that will intro duce the denizens of the Phoenix ocean to some new thrills In the evening the Marvellous Montecons will make their final appearance in the picture theatre, giving a differ ent program from that of this even ing. This engagement promises to ho one of the most notable in River sides season.

 It is suggested by The Republican that either side. desiring to avail it. self of this offer of space, name a committee through which all matter relating to the issue shall be trans mitted. In such case, all communica- uons received at this office from other sources will be rejected. We believe that this arrangement is ne- cessary to keep the discussion within reasonable lines.
