Corn From the Argentine.

Argentine Republic has begun
to export to The United States

ago. # the importations BE-
come permanent there is NO
reason why New Orleans with
it's deepwater gateway to the
Mississippi Valley should not
eventually control the bulk of
them.
According to dispatches from
New York 100000 bushels of
Argentine corn are now being
unloaded there and thirteen YES.

that port or loading with New
York as their destination. One

100000 bushels under contract

prepared to handle it. The
docking facilities are inadequate
and the railroads are confronted
with a new rate problem, mas

tains to the West. Importers,
however, eventually found that
the logical gateway was through
this port and a large portion Of
the New York trade was divert
ed to New Orleans, so that New
Orleans now rivals New York as
a coffee importing port, and the
bulk of the South American pro-
duct passes through the two
ports.
For the same reason that SO
much coffee passes through here
from South America, a large por-
ton of the Argentine corn may
be expected to seek the New
Orleans gateway. New York s
port facilities are congested and
the physical problem Of reliev-
ing the congestion is & difficult
one. But while New Orleans
trade is constantly growing, she
has ample facilities even DOW to
accommodate a large volume Of the
corn which the Argentine Re-
public can send the United
States; and, moreover, owning
and controlling miles OF unim
proved water frontage, she is in
a position to meet any additional
demands which increasing com
merce may make upon her.

WOODMAN IS
 LETTING PEOPLE KNOW HIM
Owner of Empress Theater, Pioneer Arizona Mining Man, Cand-
 date for Office

A friend of Parker L.. Woodman,
 the republican candidate for state
 mne inspector is circulating the fol-
 lowing letter in his behalf Mir
 Wocdman i;I well known to Phoe-
 niCians as the owner of the Empress
 theater and the lessee of the Elks
 His friends in this section will be
 glad to see so strong an endorse ment of him.
 Dear Friend:-
 Efficiency and honesty are the key notes of success in all enterprises, ard today people are demanding these requisites for honors conferred. Arizona is the richest state in the union in mineral wealth and it is a well known fact that her hills have only been scratched and that be- meath many goat trail may lie un ,old wealth. It is fitting, therefore, , that in the selection of state min | ing inspector some thought should be given to the aspirant for this of flee.
 Parker L. Woodman. a candidate for the above office, holds a record of thirty-fiVe years as a mining man. He migrated to Arizona in 1890, starting in Prescott for the Prescott Commercial Mining Company. His ability as a miner soon showed ltselI | and he was promoted to superintend- ent of the company, which position he held for three years, severing his connection with this company ia i ha | pected for one year; thence to Bis | bee, and under the supervision of C. | w. Clausen, worked ass a miner q few months. His integrity as well as Gh:ity again asserted itself He Gas then promoted to timber boss. | The position as shift boss quickly followed. therce to swing foreman, which he held for two years. MT. | Woodman then prospected the Low l ell district which was developed by | the Copper Queen Mining company at his suggestion, the transaction at | the time being an enigma to all mining men He became the super 1 intendent of all the Copper Queen property in the Warren district. | Through sheer force of character, ability and grim determination in
 days which tried mems souls,' MT. | Woodman has risen from the ranks 1 of a hard working miner to one of
 the largest tax payers in the state of Arizona. He is fifty-four years of age and the father of an interesting family, who take pride in their na- | tive state.
 Mining is not a hobby with MT l lWoodman, but a business. which he knows thoroughly. and there is no man better fitted for the office of state mining inspector, if ability, in tegrity and force of character count | for anything

NEW HOSE TESTS OUT
 MOST SATISFACTORILY
Is Subjected to High Pressure and
 Shows No Leaks

City Manager W. A. Parish and Fire Chief Peter Sullivan each wore broad smiles yesterday afternoon while the big fire engine stood aJ the corner of First and Jefferson streets and pumped water at high pressure into length after ltngth Of lev fire hose. There wasn't the sign of a leak at any coupling, notwith- standing more pressure was being applied than the hose was ever likely to be subjected to under ordinary circumstances.
 Out at the water plant earlier in the day half a dozen or more lengths, selected at random from the 5000 feet just received were subjected to a pressure of 400 pounds. This was in excess of the guarantee, but there Was no sign of the hose giving way either at the couplings or anywhere along any of the lengths.
 The new hose was purchased by Manager Parish after he and Chief Sullivan had examined many differ ent brands and had received bids from numerous concerns. The pur- chase price was 76 cents per foot and the brand selected was an Amer ican Rubber company product known as the "Crackerjack"

A KANSAS MAN

I lately noticed paid Ad from the Arizona Self Government League ask ing this question, Why experiment with drastic law, admitted to be partial failure in Kansas?'
 In answering the gentleman of the league I contend that the proposed law is not an experiment but has been thor oughly tried out and tested in Kansas, and proven to be a total success in stead of a partial failure, notwith- standing the unsupported claim of the league to the contrary.
 l admit that the violators of the law
 in Kansas agree with the Arizona league as a wise poet once said:
 No rogue ere felt the halter draw Who held a good opinion of the law.
 The strict conditions of the Kansas
 law Grom which our proposed law is copied) were adopted about five years ago, so that there should be no loop holes" left through which a boot leg ger or blind pig could escape.
 Before the adoption of this last drastic" amendment they only lauhed at attempted conviction. but since then the law has nterfered with their nefar ious business.
 The statement of Gov. Geo. H. Hodg- es, based on 30 years experience with prohibition in Kansas ought to have some weight against the biased opin- ions of the Arizona league, some of whose vice presidents are said to be wholesale and retail liquor dealers. Many of it's members, are said to be owners of stock in saloons and hotel bars: although they brazenly pretend in their printed advertisements that they are mot in the remotest manner connected with the liquor business.
 Gov. Hodges says in late letter to the dry federation of California: Pro hibition is fact in Kansas and the prohibitory law is more rigidly en- forced than ever before. Bounded on three sides by states where they have open saloons, we are subject to temp tations.
 Tt is significant fact, however, that in the first four months of the present fiscal year there were only 305 revenue stamps issued in Kansas and a 1 large part of these were taken out by our best druggists to guard against any | seeming violation of the federal stat | utes, when they sell patent medicines, whose compromising includes alcohol or | spirituous liquor.
 1 livery phase of our liquor law is intended to be covered and if there | should be an omission we have not yet l found it. We attribute our per capi-
 ta wealth of $1765.00 and an average of $132.00 on deposit in our banks for every person in the state to the fact ! that We are a prohibition state-tha

mony of unbiased persons who have watched the progress of statewide pro- hibitiOn and it's effects. Former Gov ernor Malcolm Patterson of Tennessee who is now in the pay of the Anti Saloon league said short time before taking his place on the league payroll.
 "Tennessee's prohibition law has re- suited in more saloons, more bootlegg- ing, more Whiskey sold and drunk than at any time in the history of the state, as well as increased lawlessness and growing disrespect for law. Prohibit tion. so far as that law affects Ten nessee, is a fraud
 The New York World referring edi- torially to the increase in crime in cities in states that had gone dry, says:
 The story is the same everywhere. When the lawful saloon is closed, tlh illicit sale of vile liquors and injurious drugs increases. Society loses more than it gains by the change"

POPE BACK
 FROM AKRON CONVENTION

Charles A. Pope, Whose middle name is not "FirestOne" like Smiths but who deserves such an appellation, returned yesterday from Akron, Ohio. Akron is a rubbery of q town, for it is there they make several thousand tires a day. They make Firestone tires there.
 The occasion of Pope's trip was a convention of salesmen, at which there were representatives of the Firestone factory from every section of the con tinent. It was highly successful con ventiOn.
 From this date until after the auto and motorcycle races are over, Pope will be busy attending to the speed game. His tires will equip a large number of benzine breeze splitters in all the big events that will attend the state fair

they have had statewide prohibition for a number of years as there were prior to such prohibition.
 Tennessee in the last five years has shown an increase of nearly 25 per cent and Maine has shown an increase of nearly 100 per cent. In Kansas more than 600 federal licenses were issued in 1913, more than there are saloons in Arizona. Georgia in 1908 had 1898 federal retail licenses and in 1913 after prohibition had been in effect for near ly four years she had 1,172.
 On the other hand Alamaba in 1908 had 1919 persons qualified to sell liquor under the federal law. In 1913 after having discarded prohibition for local option she had 996 federal lie enseS.
 Tennessee in 1908 had 1,5S9 and in 1913 2,110.
 These statistics are from the United States treasury department and may be easily verified.
 These statistics bear out the testi-

 The Republican has received many communications for this department from individuals and not from either of the bodies through which they must come If it should undertake to print all that comes to it in this way there would be little room for anything else. Those desiring to be heard on either side of the prohibit ton question must submit their mat ter to the proper bodies through which, if approved by them, they will reach these columns.
