T os e states have spent millions trying to clean up tn ir groves from pests which they have imported. w ny isn's it right for Arizona to KEEP CL E A N and to m a in t in, her proud and envied position as the only absolutely clean citrus and olive district on earth?
 Helm will do his share to keep the valley clean by meeting all California prices on olives on all sizes up to l14 inches, on open rooted or palled trees, 12bc to 35c each, 5c extra for balling.
 If you set out Helm stock 1t need be out of the ground but a a few hours, even if open rooted, a great advantage over Cal ifornia stock, shipped from 400 to 700 miles. Helms nursery, formerly known as the Camelback) is located 5L2 miles east and 1I2 miles north of Phoenix. Wis tiers are always welcome, whether Democrats, Repub- licans or. progressives, for we arc proud of our stock and are glad to show it.
 We have 10000 olives, and about 30.000 citrus trees, in cIuding the best strains from pedigreed Washington Ma vel Oranges and Marsh Seed less Grapefruit, also from carefully selected buds from the best trees in the old Clayson Grapefruit grove.

Raymond Corbett is employed in

Tacoma. His sister, Ranelle, is about
to be married to John Wood of Ia

time before the hour set for the we'd
ding ceremony, it is discovered that
the brides brother has not been not

precious. Bride insists her brother

the mountain roads to the logging
camp, leaving In their wake a can,
nonade of deafening explosions from
their open muffler cut-out, tipping
by telegraph poles and pine trees
at speed which makes the passing

CRIME TO REFUSE TO

SAYS SENATOR BORAH WITH
REFERENCE TO BLACK CANYON
PROJECT. WILL COOPERATE IN
MATTER OF KING HILL PRO-
JECT.

| The Black Canyon project shoulo
be included among the several other
projects in Idaho which need feder'
al assistance. United States Senator
William e. Borah made this propos'
al in a telegram to Governor Alex
ander Saturday in which he pledges
his cooperation to the program to
get an appropriation through the next
congress for the King Hill project.
Congressman Addison I. Smith also
assures the governor that he favors
such a program.
The governor wired the members
of the Idaho congressional delegation,
following a conference here with rep
resentatives of the settlers ON the
King Hill project. asking them to
use their influence with the secre-
tary and department of the interior
to make an appropriation possible.
1t is in reply that Senator Borah
asks to include the Black Canyon
project. He says it is nothing less
than crime to refuse to take care
of the settlers on that project.
COOPERATION PLEDGED.
Congressman Smith wired the gov
ernor as follows:
'On my arrival here today / found
awaiting me your telegram regarding
King Hill and you can rest assured
that l will do everything l can to
influence the secretary of the inter-
ior and congress toward having the
take over the project.
Politics cuts no figure with me when
can be accomplished for
the upbuilding of the state and the
of the best interests of
our people,
United States Senator Borah's tele-
gram follows:
II shall be delighted to cooperate
with you in getting the administra-
lion interested in the King Hill pro-
iect. Politics can have nothing to do
With such things. l am sure that you
md l can work together upon the
FOR THE BLACK CANYON.
Let us also include in our efforts
he Black Canyon project. 1t is moth
ng less than crime for this gov
'rnment to refuse to take care Of
hese settlers and protect their
ZONES"
The governor expressed his appre-
iation at the ready responses from
he Republican members of the Idaho
delegation and their assurances Of
learty cooperation for and on be-
lalf of the King Hill project.

Those who have given a careful
perusal to the speech of acceptance of
President Wilson, made last Saturday
at once reach the conclusion that the
speech making campaign tour of Hon.
c. E. Hughes from coast to coast is
already so shot full of holes that it
may be consigned to the political junk
pile. In addition to having the best
side of the argument in every issue
of the day President Wilson has the
natural ability to present the facts
of the administrations case to the peo-
pie faster than the whole caboodle of
soap box orators on the republican
campaign a set up their bogies to
be knocked down and out by his plain

In the state political campaign of
this fall the center of interest no
doubt will be the senatorial fight be-
tween Ex-Governor John Burke and
the present incumbent U. S. Senator
P. j. McCumber. The battle of this
fall will be a big one, one that is big
ger than mere ~partisanship, involving
as it does the choice of the people of
North Dakota in the United States
senate. The forces lined up in the
encounter will represent the rights of
the people of the state and those rep
r%esenting the privileges of big in
terests. John Burke during a public
career in this state of long years
standing has stood at all times for
popular government and the interests
of the common people. Senator
McCumber is recognized in the
United States senate as one of the re.
p%ublicans who always go on record
for the corporate interests. His lat.
est record is his vote cast last Satur-

The enactment Of the eight hour
law by congress last Saturday places
another peaceful victory to the credit
of President Wilson. First he kept
this country from being drawn into
the worlds war. Now he has saved
1t from a railroad strike, which would
have been a calamity comparable only
to a war. A war certainly would not
have been much worse, so far as this
country is concerned. Some peo-
ple-not all of them politically OPP
posed the president-giving as a rea-
son that they do not like the means
that he used. But as usual nobody,
so far as we have been able to hear,
has suggested a better means. Would
those who do not like the means that
the president employed to stop the
strike have liked a strike any better?
The main thing was to stop the strike.
1t has been stopped. All fair-mind-
ed men will give President Wilson
full credit for it; the keener their

Among the few democrats of this
state who were able to see their way
clear to accept the invitation to the
home of President Woodrow Wilson
in New Jersey on the occasion of his
being formally notified of his nominal
ton, was John S. Gogin of Osnabrock.
Many others we know of would have
given a good deal to have been there
last Saturday and.heard the presidents
speech of acceptance, but it looks as
if Mr.. Gogin was the only one of the
faithful from Cavilier county, which
certainly puts Osnabrock and the
Nora farm on the map some more.
