LOSS IN EGGS IS GIGANTIC.
Almost 7 Per Cent of All Packed In
 Crates Are Damaged.

Crates Are Damaged.
 Nearly per cent of all eggs packed ill crates and shipped arrive at their destination in bad order. according to figures obtained by the food research laboratory of the department of agri- culture. This means that on an aver age 24.96 eggs out of every thirty dozen packed and shipped arrive at the marked either as ''cracks." dents. "leakers' or ''mashers"
 These figures were obtained by an individual examination of 5000 dozen eggs before and after shipment and a further general study of the condition of aeventy-one carloads, or more than 5O0,0OO dozen eggs, shipped from th1r- ty six packing houses in the corn belt to ten different markets on the eastern coast.
 As a result of this examination of packed cases egg by egg it was found that 1922 eggs per case on an average, or 5.34 per cent. had cracked shells be- fore they were put on the railroad cars. These eggs were then repacked and shipped to distant points and again examined egg by egg on their arrival. 1t was found that during the transfer to the car. slowing, hauling. railroad trip and unloading there was an additional breakage of 5.75 eggs per case on an average. which made a to- tai of 24.9G eggs in bad; order out of every thirty dozen that arrived.

by the highest in the state look for revolution
city affairs In the first place the dry question has
been eliminated Rockford will be dry for all time Therefore
the liquor interests will take part in the election of alder
legislators 1t will make difference to them that
the legislature county option bill they
again win in this city
Instead of the question: rs he dry" the question
PROFOUND is rs he honest is he capable is he in favor of
forcing the laws This will give the chance select
the best regardless of past views. The township will
hereafter be kept dry by The persons selected for
office will be law enforcers.
We believe with the Star that the saloon is
thing of the past for the city of Rockford, if the
women continue to hold the privilege OF voting; but
do believe that the liquor interests will take
further part in the elections. The question OF law
enforcement is of vital interest to the fellows who
making Intoxicating liquor. No community in its
opposition to the saloon is fighting local saoonkeep-
ers alone, but the moment city or village finds itself
in a contest against the saloon, it finds itself against
the whole liquor fraternity. Rockford and every 9th
dry city in the state will have to be constantly
the alert prevent the local liquor interests backed
by the liquor from electing officials who will
fail to do their duty in law enforcement We have
no fears that Rockford will fail in this. The
can vote for city officials as we'll vote against the
saloon and already in municipal elections elsewhere
they have proven that they believe in dry admins
raton to enforce dry laws The liquor interests will
continue in their efforts keep foothold Rock
ford, or they will not be true to form.
Legislative Fight Not Ended.
The above editorial suggests that the liquor ques-
ton so far Rockford concerned is out of the leg
slative fight. Nothing could be farther from the
truth than that. The liquor question will be the big
issue in the next legislature. To get this question
out of the Illinois legislature county option bill to-
gether with the other legislation asked for in the
Ant-Saloon League program must be passed This
only will free the Illinois legislature from the dom
nation of the United Societes-the most dangerous
organization to good government in the state of Hi
nos. If Rockford ceases to elect to the legisa-
ture who are for this program they will be making
contribution to the efforts the part of the liquor
interests to place the United Societies in control of
the legislature This will quickly result in the return
of the saloons to Rockford
Womans Suffrage made it possible to keep Rock
ford dry this spring. Seventyseven votes will repeal

Repeal of Local Option Law.

Repeal of Local Option Law
1t is we'll known fact that greater effort than
before is being put forth by the united liquor
interests of the state of Illinois to repeal the present
local option law The fact that have the vote
is additional reason for the vets desire weaken
o repeal this law. AS at no other time they will
make this part of their present program. Drop the
county option question out of the legislative cam
pagns of dry cities like Rockford and dry districts
like the Tenth senatorial district and will aid the
wet districts of the state in gaining such control Of the
next legislature that this will be accomplished
DON'T FORGET THAT THIS IS A POSSIBLE
ITY and don't fail to appreciate that it is for this
very reason that Anton Cermak is temporarily
pending action-only openly however-in his fight
against the Womans Suffrage law. He realizes that
he must just keep quiet in his fight against
suffrage in order that he may aid wet in
their candidacy for the legislature. Once he secures
their election, however, and with it the control of the
legislature the repeal of amendment of the Woman's
Suffrage law is certainty.
Rockford Needs County Option
The county option law will the oft
repeated local elections which disturb the peace and
business in cities like Rockford and take the time of
the temperance people as we'll the enemies of tenn
perance The county option law will determine this
question for all time. Also, Wnnebago county pays
big this year, larger because of the Of the
representation County option will close the sa-
looms in nney-6ve counties in the state and will
this extra tax. The taxpayers of Winnebago
county still county option the great issue in the
legislative campaign for these reasons.
Rockford Needs Law Enforcement Measures.
The who will vote for county option bill
the who will vote to pass legislation making
it easy avoid violation of the local option law in
Rockford and other dry cities These same votes will
pass ant-shpping bill preventing the shipping of
liquor into dry Rockford for illegal purposes These
facts make it imperative that Rockford and other like
cities in the state realize that the big wet and dry
fight in 1914 has not been in the spring elections but
will be in the primary September 9 and the election
November 3 looking toward the election of the
legislature If the dry districts drop of the fight
this critical stage of the battle it will be long
until the last of these dry cities will be worse
than the first. The editor of the Star is loyal friend

campaign in the Tenth district and other dry districts
and one OF these two things will happen in the next
legislature. 1t is only because the supreme court
sustained the Woman's Suffrage in every partc-
ular that Rockford remains in the dry column this
time. Get this amendment to the Womans Suffrage
act and Rockford will be in danger OF going wet

civil SERVICE WORKERS NEED
PENSION SYSTEM"
Oscar Nelson.


After twelve years of work in the
postal service, Charles Siegel, 81,
was fired recently. Siegel was less
than 80 per cent efficient, accord
ing to the records. 1t was up to
Postmaster Campbell to get rid of
him.
But the salary which he has re-
ceived for the twelve years he
worked has not allowed savings and
the old man is dumped out of work
in midwinter.
His tale aroused Oscar Nelson,
former head of the National Fedora
ton of Postal Clerks.
Something should be DONE" he
declared. ct is very wrong to put
him out at this time of year. His
will be bitter Christmas.
"Of course, the lesson to be
learned from this is that a pension
system is needed for the civil service
workers. There is absolutely no pro-
vision for these old men,"

HEAVY FLOODS
mission by Cloudburst Which Fell Above MetcaIf.

Heavy rains which fell in this vi cinity on Wednesday night, amount ing to regular cloudburst above Metcalf, converted Chase Creek in to a roaring river Wednesday night and Thursday morning.
 The Coronado Railway was the worst sufferer and was put out of commission for three days, ore and passenger trains being transfer red between Metcalf and Clifton over the Shannon railway tracks. Between Longfellow and Metcalf several hundred feet of track was washed away together with four bridges. The flood swept over the lumber and timber yard of the Shannon company at Metcalf and washed away thousands of feet of mining timbers.
 The newly constructed Clifton Metcalf highway, built by Wander cook & Black, was partially washed away at the point where the road crosses the railway tracks of the Coronado railway just north of the long tunnel. That portion of the in course of construction by O. J. Cotey also suffered serious damage by the undermining of retaining walls. It is estimated that the loss will amount to several thousand dol lars. o.,
 In Clifton two wagon bridges were washed away, one in Chase Creek, near the little depot and another on the street leading past the concen- trator to north Clifton. At this point another railroad bridge on the North Clifton siding was washed out.
 Tt is claimed Inv come that as much water came down Chase Creek on Wednesday night as during the big flood several years ago but that the retaining walls protected the town. As it was the channel over-fowed and ran through the Texas saloon and across the street and flooded to depth of a. foot saloon and restau- rant building along the west side of the street.

A. c. co. NEW STORE.
Formal Opening of New Establish ment on Tuesday Evening.

The Arizona Copper Co. has con- pleted their new store building on Hills Flat and on the night of June 30th held formal opening.
 The several departments were in complete order and the goods dis played were shown to the best ad- vantage, not only. as result of ways and means of displaying them, but the head of each department and their assistants had brought into play their sense of the artistic and it was with the keenest pleasure that the genral public viwed the ensem- ble.
 All departments deserve sep arate mention but it was noticeable, particularly, that the grocery depar- ment, in different displays, had made an exceptional showing.
 The lighting of the new store is credit to the builders. The lights are so arranged and are of such char acter that the feeling of strain so of ten noticed under the full glare of electricity was entirely lacking.
 The different departments are under the care the Allowing persons, MT. R. U. Adams, recently from Steinfeldt's of Tucson, is the general manager of the store. MT. Goode has charge of the Dry Goods, MT. Hutchinson of the Mems Furnishing, Messrs Harris & Walthall of the Grocery, MT. Han sen of the Hardware, Mrs. Cherry and MT. Humphrey of the Drugs, MT. Simpson of the Butcher Shop, and upstairs Mrs Smith has charge of the Women's Furnishings and ready to wear. The reserve stock in the basement is in charge of MT. Cham bers. It will be observed from the list of heads of departments that the new store is in capable hands and that every effort will be put forth to cater to the public.
 MT. E. M. Williams who has had charge of the several stores of the Arizona Copper Company for years was the host of the evening and made short address from the balcony in the rear of the store. His remarks were we'll received and applauded.
 During the evening the Royal Thea tre orchestra rendered a pleasing pro gramme, and the soda fountain was the scene of wonderful activity, every person present being served with anything they desired from the foun- tain not to mention ices dan creams of several varieties.
 The opening was well attended, a number of out of town neoN!e pelng present from Mornci and l--tc9f.
 General Manager Carmt- hact was interviewed during the e~enin~ and expressed himself as pleas au WI the appearance of the new stHre ana the complimentary attitude Of pubic as evidenced by their enthusiastic at- tendance at the opening.

JARRETT'DIEs.
Weeks Ago Finally Succumbs to Injuries.

As the final result of an automo- bile accident which occurred on the Clifton-Morenci highway on the night of June 5th, W. M. Jarrett, familarly known among his friends as Shorty Jarrett, died at the A. c. hospital on Thursday night of this week shortly after six o'clock.
 It was the belief of the hospital physicians that MT. Jarrett was on his way to recovery and the patient was in the best of spirits and ap- peared to be rapidly improving, but on Thursday hemmorrage of the in- testines set in and the end came shortly afterwards.
 In the accident Jarrett was caught underneath the machine as it turned over and he was terribly mangIed in the lower portion of his body.
 The funeral will be held from the Presbyterian church on Sunday morning. His sister and brother-in- law arrived in Clifton soon after the accident and have been with him con- stantly ever since.

Mrs. John Anderson, widow of the late John Anderson, who died at Phoenix last October, was on board the Steamer California which was wrecked off of the English coast on June 26th, and was among the pas sengers who were taken off in the life boats. Not a single life was lost.
 Mrs. Anderson and children left Clifton the early part of June for her old home in Glasgow, Scotland She sailed from New York on June 10th on board the California which was stranded on an island six days later.
