Progressive Steadfastness

Members of the progressive party from various sections of the state. who attended the party conference yesterday, will return to their homes carrying the glad news that the party Is as vlrile and more earnest than ever. All rumors that there was a disposition anywhere among the pro- gressives to turn back were dispelled by the unanimous action of the coun- cll, declaring against a merger with any party and against any sacrifice of any principle of the arty to the political ambition of any man.
 It was further stated by delegates to the conference that the sentiment expressed in the resolution was the sentiment of the members of the party in their various communities.
 It would have been remarkable if any other sentiment had prevailed ill the conference; if there had been even a considerable volume of opposing sen timent, considering the falt that the progressive was the second party in the state two years ago and has since grown in strength In these circum- stances. 1t had only encouragement to steadfastness The conference could not have done otherwise than counsel stcadfastness

A Local Canning Factory.

We print communication this morning the subject of canning enterprise in this vicinity. One of the reasons advanced for the eneouraaement of that industry here is that it would take care of waste product; another is that it would stimulate the production of fruits and vegetables which. with d ready market for them, would yield d large profit A still more appealing argument is the contention that such enterprise established here would duce the of living in this community.
 The communication reminds of bulletin lately issued by the American Society for Thrift the of canning enterprises long established in Mississippi:
 Throughout the entire south the lack of thrift
 has been found particularly conspicuous failure to grow food supples-ve getables. fruits needed by the urban and rural population. There fore. the state-wide progress which demands market outlet for the surplus is radical step in advance, one promoting the thrift happiness and prosperity of hundreds of thousands uf people The Girls Tomato club, organized by counties and connected with the public school system of Mississippi raised vegetables tomatoes corn. cabbage, squashes-and canned them and labeled them with labels which guarantee to their quality. Deicacies appeared last year the farm tables unheard of in rural families before; empty shelves in the pantry laden with vegetables and fruits for years The proceeds from the surplus paid the cH- of of the girls through the agricultural high school others bought pianos and paid for music lessons and states that last fall she was aoc to buy pretty rousseau and get married and is prepared be a good housekeeper.
 We have before mentioned the of a ming enterprise. co-operative factory conducted at McNea in Cochise county It is now in it's second year. under enlarged facilities. Many vaIie ties of vegetables canned there. but specially is made of tomatoes whose superiority over those of any other brand quickly recognized that the output was taken by the Phelps, Dodge X to. stores at Douglas and Bishee. The demand for the enlarge the plant.
 It is a fact. though generally known. that tomatoes raised by irrigation much superior in flavor those produced under other conditions. That is largely of all vegetables, though it is not necessarily fruits It would be in the raising of vegetables in this valley that there would be the quickest, if the greatest profit.
 A factory for handling them should he so equipped as to be able take advantage of of saving small things for instance, the cost of cans and labels bought in small quantities from manufacturers at a distance. It is in the margin that the success of the enterprise must he found. and il Is in the same narrow margin that producers of will find their advantage in local factory

Reparation and Reprisal.

Every new, important situation brings into use unaccustomed words and expressions which We bring out dust and sometimes improperly until get used them. We have noticed, for instance. within the past week in dispatches and editorials. conjectures whether the Mexicans would make reprisal.'
 Now if had had many such situations to deal with, would know that the Mexicans would not could if they would 4 reprisal is unmak- able. Reprsas cannot be made. but they can be taken We may take reprsals the Mexcans may make reparaton though they seem to have restrained successfully far any wild desire they may have had to do But when were expecting them to make reprisals were expecting entirely too much

Now that have decided to seize the ports of Tampico and Vera Cruz and a section of the Vera Cruz Mexico City railway because of the affront offered the American flag Tampico. uraly wonder what will be the succeeding That enterprise is going be attended by great deal of though. probably. without blood shed. We may expect the resistance of the Huerta government be passive
 And afterward? Since this trouble not of making. but was precipitated by the Huerta government. and since its persistence in error has made these seizures necessary the costs should be assessed against somebody. but against whom? We cannot hold the ccnsttutonaliss responsible Hardly hold the country large sponsibe We hold the Huerta government responsible for have declared for than year that responsible government

 It is now apparently to stop proceedings by reparation, for there is offender whom regard capable making reparaton We had already strained point in negotiations with Huerta the matter of the salute.

 The development of the constitutionalist attitude f s evid hal the of the United States does not meet con- stitutionalist approval Such expressions as We have the revoutonist leaders and sym pathizers have been confined to statements that they are prevented joining Huerta in repelI ing American invasion. a conclusion that to have reached after consideration of the sub ject It is plain that they do not welcome the invasion.
