I The demand for seats from out-of-

conceded that many people will come

the concert and trust TO pure luck to

contends that an artist should be al

a recognized artist, and while holding

WORSLEY's CROWD
 |S EDUCATIONAL

One who has ever had any experience with a Saturday night crowd at po- litical or other public meeting in Phoe- nix, seldom wants another Hon. A. A. Worsley had probably never had an experience with a Saturday night crowd in Phoenix or he would have chosen some other night to present his claims to the democratic nomination for congress. But it was after all fair audience, though by no stretch of the imagination could it be called an outpouring.
 Mir. worsley dealt in an eloquent and pleasing manner with the subjects of labor the rural credist system, rec lamation and equal suffrage. He took issue with the president on the equal suffrage question, believing that it should be a national rather than a state issue. He founded his belief on the accepted democratic doctrine that government derives its just powers from the consent of the governed. No government, he said, could be a just one whose powers had come to it with out the consent of half the governed. The postal savings system of this country he regarded as a farce. He held the same opinion of the rural credits law, which, by the way, the friends of President Wilson point to
 with pride as one of the accomplish ments of his administration.
 In the discussion of the rural credits | law MT. Worsley took occasion mildly to criticise Representative Hayder ] whom he accused of having beer asleep at the switch"

Indian Roads Were Destroyed State May Secure Federal Road Fund

New light is cast on the Indian res ervation roads situation by correspon- dence between the Chamber of Com merce and Washington, in which it is found that of s50,000 or thereabout, held in reserve by the redmen of Fort Apache reserve, practically the whole amount might be available for con- struction and repair of roads.
 Hard rains last winter and resulting floods, did far greater damage to the roads of the Indian reservations than has ever been told in print. In some cases, whole roads were wiped out, and several large and a number of little bridges were washed out. So, during the present season, the road funds, derived from receipts for grazing and other permits, have been heavily taxed for construction purposes.
 There are about eighty miles of roads, connecting state and national highways, and in general use by the

LOCAL INTEREST IN 4 MOTOR 0|L

That the motorists of Phoenix and Marlcopa County appreciate the value of really high grade lubricants is de- monstrated by the instaneous approv- al accorded PennZoil during the brief period it has been in the local market A few weeks ago, after making many tests and considering various oils. C. D. Messner came to the con- clusion that PennZoil was the one product that he could enthusiastically recommend and the wonderful demand that has been created for it since that time certainly verifies his claims.
 In the series of oil tests made by MT. Messner, he found that Pennzoil stood the highest fire and flash test in fact, much hioher than any oil he had ever came in contact with. This is due. no doubt, to the fact that Pennzoil is refined from the finest Pennsylvania paraffine base crude which is considered by world experts the most perfect lubricant for motors known
 By using a scientific process 1t Is said that all the vital lubricating es- |, sentials of the oil have been preserved. while 1t is filtered free from carbon and other ingredients which are the cause of engine trouble.
 PennZou has genuine natural color and no acid is used in treating it. | Quality and utmost care in refining, il is said. have created an envious repu- | tation for Pennzoil
 1 In addition to handling this motor oil, c. D. Messner will also carry other
 Pennzoil products. including transmits
 sion and differential greases. etc. It is | the intention of Dr. Messner to inau-
 gurate a novel publicity campaign 1T this vicinity featuring Billy Piston, in the interest of Pennzoil and leading garages and dealers in various towns

ARIZONA CHIC[E GUMCOMPANY
 TO START ERECTION OF PLANT

The Arizona Chicle Gum company Der l. It has received blue prints of the plant to be used in extraction. The plant, made in Buffalo, N. r., will cost $15,000 Experiments have shown that the gum produced from the ocotillo which abounds in this state, New Mex ico, Texas, Nevada, Southern Califor mia and northwestern Mexico is su perior to any other gum for the pur poses for which it has been used, in the manufacture of rubber. for chewing gum or for varnishes.
 As to the raw material. All over Arizona the ocotillo grows in so great abundance that as much as 400 tons may be taken from an acre. When it is cut a new growth at once springs up and will reach maturity in from three to five years. The plant, consisting of a grinding machine, a disintegrator and distilling tank will have a capacity of two tons q day. The raw material will yield fifteen per cent gum so that the plant run at capacity would turn out daily 600 tons of gum.
 The quoted price of the gum is now go cents. Allowing 10 cents a pound for operating expenses and dividing the remainder, to be conservative, there would be daily net proceeds of $2400 ] or s720,000 a year from a single plant The extent to which the business might be carried by the addition of other plants is almost limtless
 There would be some expense. though comparatively light, for the leasing of the desert lands on which the ocotillo grows. But the profits would be sc enormous that that expense would cut small figure. The demand for chicle is far greater than the supply which is furnished by comparatively few sources in the world. It is used in the manufacture of the finest French var nishes and in the growng manufacture of chewing gum. For the latter pur. | pose no other chicle is equal to that i produced from the ocotillo The or

dinary chewing gum after 1t has been masticated for long time crumbles while ocotillo gum dvcs not.
 There might be a limit to the pro- auction for the making of varnish and for chewing gum but there would be practically none to the demand for 1t for the manufacture of rubber. Ex- periments by the Goodyear company with gum sent to Akron, Ohio, by the Arizona Chicle Gum company have demonstrated that it produces rubber of the finest and strongest quality The price of the gum for the manu- fracture of rubber would be consider ably less than that for it's use in chew ing gum or varnish. but it would still be beyond the figure used by the con- pany in the foregoing description of the profits.
 There would be a revolutionizing of the rubber industry which now de- pends as it has from the beginning of it, on caoutchouc which is found in comparatively limiten areas in the tropical zone With the development of the automobile manufacture. the demand for rubber has so increased that long ago it was felt that there would have to be found another source of supply. Experiments have been made with the so- called Mexican rub Der plant, suayule. One of these ex- periments is now in progress at the Canoa ranch near Tucson and it is stated that the Intercontinental Rub Der company, which is directing opera tions there, has spent more than $400,- 900 in such experiments in various parts of the country where the guayule is found.
 But 1t is neither so widespread as the ocotillo, nor is 1t so easily handled nor does 1t reproduce itself as readily as the ocotillo. It may therefore be pre- dicted that the ocotillo will come to be the chief source of rubber supply for the world. Further information re- garding the project may be obtained from the office of the Arizona Chicle Cum cOmpanY al IS West Adams street

 The value of roads ana bridges de- stroyed in the floods, is estimated at about s25,0O0 to s30.000, although it would probably take somewhat more to replace them now.
 In 1914, the Fort Apache reservation used S5,000 on road work; in 1915, sS,0OO and for 1916, about s7,590 has been authorized.

THE ACID TEST

There has been much controversy,
pro and con, as to whether Minnesota,
on a popular vote, would favor county
option, prohibition and woman stuff
rage.
The matter will be put to an acid
test in the coming election.
Thomas Dwyer, the "boilermaker,"
who has been selected as the Demo-
cratic standard bearer and who will
make the run for Governor on the
Democratic ticket, is openly and
frankly opposed to county option, pro-
hibition and woman suffrage and
makes no bones of declaring that he
will recommend the repeal of the
county option law and that he will We
to any prohibitory or woman suffrage
legislation that may be passed.
Mr.. Dwyer is to be commended for
his frankness, if not for his good
judgment and moral sense.
He is also entitled to credit for his
courage in bringing these questions
squarely before the people, even in an
indirect way-something no other
candidate has had the nerve to do.
There are other candidates as "wet"
as Mr.. Dwyer, and as "anti" as he is
but none of them have the effrontery
to say so.
We welcome the acid test.

The Talmud.

The Talmud is the compendium of
ancient Jewish oral or unwritten law.
as distinguished from the Pentateuch.
or written law. its origin is coeval
with the return of the Jewish people
from the Babylonian captivity, 536 B.
Z. Its compilation in Hebrew was be-
gun by the scribes. and by their sue
cessors the work was carried on till
20 B. G. The Talmud is combination
of prose and poetry and contains two
elements. legal and legendary. Its
morality resembles that of the New
Testament. and it's philosophy reminds
US very forcibly Of that of the great
PlatO.-New York American.
