entirely liberal minded men are quite ready to educate the people in letting them see for themselves what the properties mean.
 Remarkable Scenery
 Leaving the mines the traveller comes to the cactus gardens and on to Roosevelt lake. Here they enjoy a rest. At the lake the traveller can have a good bed, good food, fine bass and perch fishing as well as excellent swimming and boating. In season the game bird hunting is unsurpassed. Al ter a period of rest, the length of which individual preference may sug- gest, the trip is continued through the most impressive mountain and river scenery in the world.
 Out ofprimeval nature he will emerge into the highly civilized com munity of the Mormon colony at Mesa. A few miles further he will pass into a district giving an excellent example of what irrigation will do for the des- ert. This is the Salt River valley, with Phoenix as its capitol and the growing place of all products of the south temperate or semi-tropic zone. The products include palms, dates, cotton and oranges, while fiocks and herds are seen in the fields.
 The faith of the Southern Pacific company is shown in this district through our plans for an entirely mod ern hotel and play place located about 50 miles from the railroad. Here we will build for the convenience of mod ern man a dwelling place as suited his needs as were the homes of prehistoric man for protection of races gone be- fore. These wonderful cliff dwellers are still standing in the district and they comprise not the least of the at fractions of the district for both stu dent and pleasure seeker. They afford a part of the interesting side trips from the great dam.

SOUTHERN PACIFIC PLANS TO MAKE
 APACHE TRAIL AND ROOSEVELT LAKE
 POPULAR WITH WORLDS TRAVELLERS

LAKE TAHOE, Aug. 1S = Sitting on the veranda of Tahoe Tavern, look ing out across the largest high lake in the United States, William Sproule, president of the Southern Pacific, this morning gave out information of keen interest concerning the largest lake oI fresh water in the world, to be contain ed in an artificial basin.
 Roosevelt lake, above the great dam, and the Apache trail were the sub jects of MT. Sproule's comments. The announcement was made that the Southern Pacific is to proceed with ali haste to make the Roosevelt-Apache trail country one of the great play places of the world To the folk who travel, and that class includes the rank and file of America as well as the vast number of foreign visitors now here, the discovery and development of a new play place is of interest
 We are going to make the Apache trail one of the widely known wonder places" said MT. Sproule. Tt is to be one of the most accessible of the spec tacular places of the continent When we. are g0ihg to spend hundreds of thousands in bringing comfort ro places of natural interest like to see for myself. l made the trip with Wes- ley Hill, veteran of the Apache trail, and was convinced that this place should be brought to the people.
 View Is Praised
 T consider the view from the top of the mountain, when you first come into view of Roosevelt lake on the road from Globe, one of the worlds fost impressive views. The stupen- dous mountain chain in the back ground, the cliff dwellings to the left and the great body of water below combine to present thrill often read about but seldom felt. Here is seen one of the great examples of co-opera- tion of man and nature, working to- gether on a tremendous scale ro pro duce an effect unsurpassed.
 The Apache trail stands alone in attraction of unusual character. The greatest places, heretofore, brought to the people do not surpass this district in novelty, grandeur and beauty when convenience and accessibility are con sidered, for variety of unusual attrac- tions the Apache trail stands alone in America or elsewhere.
 "The improving of the Apache trail, a task now before the Arizona people, will encourage travel to Globe, where two of the worlds greatest , copper mines are located. Few people have an idea of how copper is produced. One of the great smelters is also in the Globe-Miami district. Fhe owners of these important institutions being

The barracks will be two-story structures. They will all be electric ally lighted. The officers quarters will be only one storied. Although nothing definite has been decided, local stock company will be organized to construct portable cottages for the married officers and their families.
 There will be nine Y. M. c. A. build ings. These will be run on regular army plan. They will have libraries, billiard rooms and picture shows. At present temporary Y. M. C. A. work is being conducted for the benefit of the seven companies stationed here for guard and other duties.
 Besides the recreation which will be afforded at the camp, plans are being made by the citizens along this line. Every possible means will be used to entertain the soldiers and their wis itors.
 From now on the daily percentage of increase in construction will average three per cent. The work will not be impeded by lack of material, as there are fifty carloads coming in daily. Most Of this is lumber and sewer ma terial All excavating is done by huge trench diggers. which are dupli- cates of those used in the war The carpenter force consists of four thous-

CHILLICOTHE, Ohio, August 1S- Camp Sherman, cantonment for the Ohio and West Virginia draft army. is now 50 per cent completed. A force of 6,0O0 men are working day and night in order that the canton ment will be ready for the reception of the 30,O00 troops at the contemplat- ed time, September the first.
 The camp site is most picturesque one. The level land is bounded on the east and west by historic hills, the most eminent being Mount Logan, which is represented on the seal of Ohio.
 Every precaution is being taken against unsanitary conditions. The natural drainage of the land Is good. There will be thirty-fve- miles Of sewer pipes. Work is now being rush. ed on one of the largest sewage dis posal plants in the country. Six hundred yards Of excavation were necessary for this. The septic plant will be 5 by 127 feet and will be di- vided into ten compartments. The wall will be about ten feet high, thir- teen inches thick and of reinforced concrete The water wells will be of the most modern kind and pure drink ing water will be an assurance.

and men. A barracks building is com pleted in two days work.
 Work has been started no the hos pital unit. An expenditure of S1,00O,- 900 has been issued for this. The ten store houses are being rushed so as to be ready for the supplies which will start coming in the fifteenth of this month.
 It is remarkable to note that there has not been one fatality during the time of construction. The many min or injuries received by the work men are treated at an emergency hos pital. Sickness is treated at a gen. eral hospital which is equipped in first class style.
 Eating and sleeping is provided for those workmen who desire to stay on the grounds. There are two commits saries for the workmen and one for the office force. Three thousand pounds of meat, 2.500 pounds of bread and 2.000 pounds of sugar are neces- sary daily for the feeding of the men, The meals are served at cost of 27 cents. They are served for 30 cents. The narrow margin of profit is put in a fund to pay for the utensils and oth- CT miscellaneous expenses.
 The pay roll last week amounted to s15O,O0O.

Introductory Note
By WILL CROOKS, p. c., M. P.

The life story of Will Crooks is one of the Iomances of modern England. Born in a one-roomed house in East London, he was fa- miliar from infancy with poverty and hunger. For a short spell he was in a wOrkhouse school. When II, he started life of hard toll.
 Such an experience would have soured and embittered many men. It broadened and deepened and created an infinite pitifulness in Will Crooks. When his fellow work men, understanding his grasp of public affairs and his sound com mon sense, elected hm as their leader he used his power for the benefit of the poor. As London county councillor. guardian of the poor, mayor of Poplar, member of parliament and member of the kings privy council, his life work has been consistent.
 Today, as t he Right Hon. W. Crooks, P. C., M F.. he remains un- spoiled by success. He lives among his own people in little two-stor- led house in Poplar. His home is a center to which those in distress flock all day long.
 His wit. his homely simplicity and his genuine kindliness of heart have made the world his friend. When in the spring of 1917 he was struck down by serious illness, the king sent to enquire after his prog ress, peers and bishops waited for news of him, and in many a back room and workhouse ward there were heavy hearts until he was out of danger.
 In the accompanying article Mir. Crooks, the democrat, worker for peace and advocate of international amity. explains why he has thrown all his energies and enthusiasm in to advocating and aiding the cause of the allies in this war.

THE BRITISH WORKMAN DEFENDS HIS HOME

am a Poplar man. I was born in Poplar in poverty in little one-room- ed house in 1852. As lad I was ap- prenticed near by to cooper. Nearly thirty years ago, the working men of Poplar chose me for the first public office, as member of the Board of Trus- tees. live in Poplar today.
 Poplar is part of the great working class quarter of East London, which starts at Whitechapel and stretches to Canning Town. the largest solely in dustrial quarter in the world. Here we have no leisure class, no middle class, none but working men and the tradesmen who supply them. East London is a natural reservoir for casual and shifting labour In pre- war days, advertisements of factories to let here added as an attraction the words, Abundant supplies of casual labour to be had
 Before the war, our people were the fioatsam and jetsam of industry. The docks, the factories and the workshops employed a great deal of unskilled labour The out-of-work and the half employed naturally came here 10 be near what work was going. The famil- jar local phrase expressed the condi- ton of most. They were in and out of work regular" Our population changed every three years.
 Casual labour means low wages, and East London is the home of poverty. We have many families living in one or two rooms; few families have whole house to themselves. Cough street, Poplar. where I live, is as good a street as is to be found within a radius of a mile. Yet l do not know a family save my own. that has a whole house to itself, and think know every family in the street. The houses in Cough street are not large teen shillings a week. But when thir- teen shillings represents thirty-three percent of a working mans wages, he cannot afford as much for rent.
 In Poplar the organized democratic movement is very strong We have our fierce political controversies. Our efforts 10 improve the conditions Of the very poor. to human.ze the work house. to care for the child and to pro- teets the rights of labour, have often

the war with Germany began. We were so strongly for peace that we were willing to fight any man for it.. In the Boer war we were outspokenly pro-Boer. At a time when national feeling ran very high. ours was the only district where not a single anti war meeting was broken up. = We not only held meeting in Poplar itself; we had demonstrations in Trafalgar Square, in the parks and in the streets Three times at least during these dem on strations the opposition to me was so fearce that it seemed as though ened to drive me out of public life be- cause of my stand for the Boers. 9th CTS. like man with club, backed up a dense crowd who faced me one af- ternoon after a demonstration on Parliament Hill Fields. and threatened to brain me. were ready to adopt shorter way.

We laughed at the Algiers and Berties of Piccadilly We opposed in every way we could any men who sought to promote war or to do anything likely to provoke war.
 Today Poplar. for many years the center of anti-war propaganda. is ac- lively supporting the government in it's conduct of the war against Ger many. The men who stood by me the peace demonstrations in Hyde Park and Trafalgar Square in the days of the BOed War. have sent their sons to fight for England.

WUr Horses Suffer
 From Soul Sickness

and mud, without color or ensemble, is not at all to the horses taste. The loneliness and awful noises punctuat- ing silence get on his nerves. Ger tain elements, of course, enjoy good moments. Cavalry reserves in repose, say, well behind the front in the Somme, delight in gregarious river swims and gallops. The horse is gre agrious and enjoys hustle and fra ternizing in leisure.
 The veterinarians cannot touch the ~malady," which they call 'melan- choly." Of course, the horse is typical ly a creature of habit, built up for countless generations on regular hours for sleep, digestion and w0rk. In mod ern war he gets lost in ''soul sickness.
 Regularly they do not die of it. But, regularly, it is worse than sorrow. In the year 1916 it is calculated there were as many army horses inyalided in France by war neurasthenia" as nothing like the same proportion came back to the armies from "recup- erating" in the high meadows of Savoy and Dauphiny-

 The Mule Is Soldier
 Mules, The great American army mule is enjoying his vindication. For the past year he has steadily forged ahead in French and British army es- teem, proving his merits. Already it is being said that, next to men and guns, he is coming to be the most val uable asset of the allied armies and with the arrival of the American troops his triumph will be perfect The mule, the humble American mule, has inscribed his name on the scarlet page of Verdun and the Somme, and Brit ish tanks" and French '75s" salute him.
 From California alone. they say, eight thousand head of mules have been shipped to the war. and who knows how much greater contingents from Georgia, Missouri and Texas |? French army buyers seek, by prefer ence. Missouri mules from the best and largest mares bred to the best Kentucky jacks. A mule weighing from 1000 10 l4OO pounds will bring twice as much money as a mule weighing from 1000 to HOO pounds.

Editor Gazetts:
 have just returned from a trip to Bisbee, Ariz., and feel that the gen. eral public might not only be inter- ested but profited by few things that came to me while there.
 In the first place, let me make it clear that l did not go to Bisbee ito investigate the deportation situation, !" nor to assist those who are making in- vestigations. My visit had no relation to that of Governor Campbell or that of Attorney General Jones.
 was there looking after the work of the Arizona State Sunday School association and the Arizona Children's home, the two institutions l represent.
 have been keenly interested in the business situation ever since the his toric July 12th event, because am interested in the welfare of my fellow men and in the ideals that 1 think our country should nave. l was also inter ested in the situation because lived in Bisbee for two years and am ac- quainted with hundreds of its citizens. l am quite sure that there are not bet ter people anywhere in the state of Arizona. They are as cultured, as well educated and as law abiding as any people I have ever met in my life. was therefore well acquainted with the mental and fibre that gave backbone n Nn1f .1a 1r from the beginning of trouble that Dis bee had counted the cost and knew ex- actly what she wanted, and the best thing for the rest of us was to let her alone.
 I want also to say that I went into Bisbee with an open mind and without prejudice one way or the other. l was and am quite clear that the 1. w. w. were a menace to Bisbee and will be a menace to any community in this country and that every hour we permit them to propagate their principles the greater our sins as a people. There seems to be no good thing that can come from them"
 W Hdl Sudll SlNS lOu VIII Dt mtTelN quotations from laboring men of Bis bee. The statements were given to me voluntarily and they were given to me in very emphatic tones and with an apparent conviction behind them.
 Some of them are as follows Wheel CT is the greatest man in the state" l" Tt was great day" Tt was all done as orderly and quietly as a church funeral, We are all sure proud of Bisbee.

They came here fo rho other purpose than to make trouble for the honest work ing man and for the company. l know because they tried to get me. They threatened me three times. They in- suited the women on the streets. They called the men who were on their way to work vile names. They are a lot of human degenerates. Our mistake
