IMPARTIAL RAIN VETS
 TIE JUST AND MUST

The rail fell on the banners of the republican and those of the democrat is candidates. 1t bedraggled the ViS- ages of the seekers for office, pictured on many a telephone pole and fence.
 PhoenM was the wettest dry town in many counties. Flat. slopeless, the townsite kept most of the moisture as 1t fell for the run off was slow. An early morning soaking had the effect of mulching the surfaces of the streets and except where much traf- fife ground up the mud the water stayed on top and made pools.
 Down on South Central avenue, where they have recently laid some paving" there was an oceon. It filled in a low place in the street, that material and formed a menace for automobiles that hadn't been equipped with armored magnetos and water proof carburetors. One small little car was observed stalled in the mid dle Of the puddle, while its owner endeavored to dry out some of the works.
 Like last winters. yesterdays rain gave Phoenix an object lesson in the need of more and better paving It stopped all riding for the mere joy of it. and haZed all traffic except that of an utilitarian character to t..e garage, the stable and the fireside. There were no fires to have sides, but the temperature Was not so intrusive, at that
 Rivers of doubt formed in tke un- even places in the paving along the street ear tracks, and the low, Ma chiayelian canyon through which the Monroe streets tracks meander, be- came a bayou
 Phoenix admitted that the downpOur was fine for the crops, and was a blessing so long as it knocked Old Man Fahrenheit in the eye, but it wasn't such a much for footwear and comfort. especially out in the suburbs, where the sidewalks are not as con- tinuous as they might be.

INDIANA SOCIETY TO CELEBRATE ADMISSION


 Because of the incomparahle climate of the Salt River valley, the Indiana society will celebrate its hundredth anniversary on the day of it's admis- sion, December II. Throughout the country the Hoosiers have been hold ing inbilees at this season fearing that in December 1t will be too cold and dreary to celebrate in fitting man. ner. President Clyde M Candy, of the local society, stated yesterday that he saw no reason why the date should not 'he observed here.
 There is absolutely nothing to pre- vent our celebrating on admission day. We can bank on splendid weather and no matter what form of entertainment We give. December will be as timely as any month in the year This could not be true in any state in the union but Arizona.
 In Indiana the past month the Hoosiers have been holding great get together meetings with short pro grams of appropriate exercises. The details of the local fete have nol been determined and will be left largely to the committee which Mr Candy will shortly appoint.

Having had. the honor recently to
attend meeting of Local No. IS, OF
Washington D. c., and when / thought
of the remarkable way the Firemen,
Engineers and Brewery workmen are
standing together there could not
help making comparison with the
situation In Wheeling. These men
were locked out ON April LIST, 1915.
The brewery workers could not get a
settlement of their controversy with
the brewery owners. And non-union
men were placed on their Jobs. And
just as soon. as that happened the
Firemen and Engineers came out to a
man. Showing the true union spirit
by refusing to work with scabs. Just
as 1t happened In Wheeling. These
men after having been out eleven
months are just as determined to win
as they were the firsA day they came
out. saw these men standing in
front of unfair places day after day
working In S-hour shifts with the rain
and wind blowing In their faces, but
always on the job, from z a. m. to
IL p. m. These men have been. getting
the paltry sum Of six dollars per
week. This lockout no doubt could
have been settled long ago If one or.
ganization would have deserted the
other, but the motto Of thesemea, is
An injury to one Is the concern Of
ak I could not help thinking of
what could have been gained In the
