r F|NAL SURVEY IF
 E.P. &S.W. T0MEsA


 MESA, April 16.-O. S.. Stapley, who has just returped from Tucson brings affirmation of the cheering news that the F. F. & s. W. will at once make final survey of the route from Tucson to Mesa. Similar information was con- tained in the Saturday evening issue of the Tucson Citizen. Mr. Stapleys information also was received from railroad men who know. It is under stood that the route now planned will come via Oracle, Mammoth, Hayden. Ray, Superior and Goldfield This will give a high-line grade and tap the great copper belt. There is every in- dication that the road will enter the valley at the earliest possible time, News comes from the north that con- tracts for grading has been let on the Mesa Clarkdale road and that work actually has commenced on the Clark dale end Thus it appears that ere long, the cherished dream of a main line for the valley will come true

 The company officers are busy now making their arrangements for the annual camp tour, scheduled to last seven days, starting next Saturday morning.

 Actual camp life is to be lived by the cadets and from cooking their own meals to drill on the skirmish line under fire, they will see ser vice as the regulars do.
 School is to be dismissed Friday and will resume after vacation week on April 30.

POSTAL INCREASE
EFFECTIVE THURSDAY
RAISE APPLIES TO ALL FIRST
CLASS MAIL MATTER EX-
CEPT DROP" LETTERS.

Postmaster Cheatham is preparing
for the increase of l cent in postage
on all frst-class matter as levied by
the new war tax. The additional 1
cent of postage will become effective
at 1901 a. m. November 2.
The postal authorities are caution
ing the public to remember the in
crease in rate in order to avoid delay
in the first-class mail, and to pre-
vent the office being swamped with
improperly stamped letters.
The officials also state that the
new rates will not affect what is
known as the drop" letter. That is
first-class matter mailed in Dawson
to be delivered by carriers, both city
or rural, working out of the local
postoffice.
This is particularly important to
the Dawson merchants. They can
continue mailing out their monthly
statements at the postal rate of 2
cents However, the additional l
cent will have to be placed on all
letters going into the county and not
delivered by rural carriers.
The new war tax will also affect
both the telegraph and telephone Of
fees.
Commencing November LIST there
will be an increase of 5 cents on
every telegraph message sent out of
Dawson, and the same increased rate
on all long distance calls. This is
the second time these companies have
had to collect war tax from their pa
torns. Shortly after the European
war was declared in 1914 1-cent
tax was imposed by the government
on these companies for every mes
sage and long distance call Dispatch
ed out of Dawson.

Old Kentucky Mfg Co., Paducah,
KY. Gentlemen: Please allow me
to state that | have sold your
hog cholera remedy for one sea-
son and have ordered more for
this season. Last year l sold it
to twelve or fifteen men who raise
hogs. l told each Of them to take
the remedy, feed it to their hogs
and if they lost a single hog from
disease of any kind not to pay me
a cent for the remedy, but when they
began to sell cotton every man came
in and paid me for the medicine and
every one of them told me that it
was the best hog medicine they ever
used. One man paid me for the small
package and bought S. worth more
and said it was the best that he had
ever tried Your very truly,

PROHI ORATOR HAD
A COLD RECEPTION
ONLY HANDFUL OF PEOPLE TO
HEAR TIRESOME AND UNI
INTERESTING SPEECH.

Mr.. John G. Woolley, who was her
aided as brilliant and versatile ma
tional figure, appeared before a
small audience at the Methodist
church Friday evening in behalf of
national prohibition.
The audience was unresponsive, and
the speaker seemed to grasp the sit
uation and his effort was entirely
lacking in pep" and inspiration.
There were, however, a faithful
few on hand to make the best posi-
BILE of an awkward and unfortunate
situation, but it is safe to say that
Mr.. Woolley was not much impressed
with the responsiveness of a Dawson
audience and certainly those who
made up the company were forced to
the conclusion that on this particular
occasion the widely advertised speak
er was cold proposition.
The people of Dawson consider the
prohibition question settled, as far as
Georgia is concerned, and further
agitation useless.
