The Business of Abstracting


 The business of abstracting titles is of comparatively re- cent growth.
 As lands increase in value the need of title security be- comes more and more impera- tive.
 Itis just as sensible to safe guard the title to a thousand dollar vacant lot as it is to keep your thousand dollar bond under lock and key. Protection in either case is the thing sought.
 Good titles make real estate as negotiable as stocks or bonds.
 There is no way of being sure about the title except by the help of an abstract.
 We have the only set ot abstract books in Coconino County and the only record of conveyances recorded in Yavapai County affecting property in Coconino County prior to its creation. Coconino County Abstract Co.

w. C. t. u. COLUMN

A T the recent meeting of the South
4 n ern Baptist convention at Hous-
ton, Texas, that great body adopted
strong prohibition resolutions. The
fight is now on. Let all use every eff
fort to further the cause. Read the
following extracts from speech by
Secretary Bryan, made in the Billy
Sunday tabernacle during last March:
"It is estimated that the people of
the United States spend almost two and
half billion dollars annually on intoxi-
eating liquors. 1t is difficult for the
mind to comprehend 50 large sum
unless we resort to comparisons.
THE cost of the Panama canal, the
most gigantic engineering feat in his
tory, was about $400. 200, 900. Is it not
appalling to think that we spend for
drink every year something like six
times the cost of the Panama canal?
81 have endeavored to secure an ac-
curate estimate of the amount of money
spent on education in this country, and
the figure given me is $3.50, 900, 0GO. This
pays all the teachers who instruct the
children from the kindergarten to the
university in this land of more than
ninety million. 1t provides salaries for
the great intellectual army whose ines
Unable service no figures can describe.
If we were to cease these expenditures
this nation, so conspicuous in all that
contributes to the civilization of the
world, would lapse into barbarism. AnC
yet we spend for drink more than three
| times as we spend for education.
"All the governmental agencies EN-
ployed in administering the Fedora
government of this great nation are
operated at an expense of less thar
s., 1,250, 100000. Think, if the mind car
comprehend it, of this nation spending
twice that amount for alcoholic liquors.
But there is an argument still more
easily understood, namely, the increas.
ing demand for total abstinence which
| is being made by employers. On boats
grog used to be furnished to sailors. 1t
is becoming more and more the rule to
deny it to them altogether. The
owner of a ship cannot afford to trust
passengers or cargo, or even the vessel,
to a man who allows his brain to be be-
fuddled by alcohol.
Our railroad managers are applying
more and more stringent rules against
drink. They cannot afford to take the
risk of either loss of life or damage to
property involved in the employment of
men who use liquor. And so on through
other industries; the more important
the employment the more rigidly the
use of liquor is forbidden
