SAMMY DOESN'T LIKE
 FRENCH TOBACCO
Milwaukee JournaD

These French cigars are awful, likewise the smoking tobacco. Oh. for a decent cigarette" So groanS Sam my and it's just like him. A thou sand dscomforts to endure, thou sand hardships a thousand dangers facing him-and he pleads only for real American smoke. Surely he's right. For if there is one standard which has no canons it is one state in smokes. Here at last. the Philis- tines ready phrase is the true criter- ion, T don't know much about art but I do know what I like.' There are lots of things Sammy likes, there will be a lot more he doesn't like, but when it comes to smokes, the business is important.
 Why not? The hardship? He's a man: that's what he's looking for. The trenches and the shrapnel and i,he bombs? He's an American soldier; that's what he enlisted for. But when there comes lull, as lulls must come even hl the somber business of fight ing: when he takes out the worn let ter from home to read again or stops to crack a joke in the face of death then he wants such a solace as Will let him think for a moment that all is we'll He needs to imagine for few minutes that he is where ne faln would be and war is where all who know it wish it were. But a whifI of French tobacco and the illusion IS destroyed Let life and limb be in

MAJOR LEAGUE LEADERS STILL
 RETAIN PLACES
FueputIican A. p. Leased Wire1


 NEW YORK, Aug. 26.-The lead of New York in the National League de- creased twenty points last week be- cause the Giants continued to play in different baseball while Philadelphia won six of it's eight contests. The league leaders won four games, lost three and played a five inning tie. In the American, Chicago retains the lead by slightly better margin than at the end of the previous week.
 The series at Chicago between the American League leaders and Boston was the most important of the week but the three games between the Brooklyn and Pittsburg Nationals were equally as interesting. In all the Suburbas and Pirates played 45 in- nings enough for five full games The league record for the longest game was broken Wednesday when the Suburbas triumphed over Pittsburg by six to five in P innings. Pittsburg also set a new major record by playing fifty nine innings in four consecutive extra in"ir" contests.
 The play on McGraw's men con- tinues cratic and is not as finished as during July and early August Philadelphia, on the other hand, has shown marked improvement in the last two weeks due especially to stea v pitching and opportune, al though not extremely heavy hitting
 The four game series between Chi cago ard Boston for possession of the AmNricap Leaoua lead ended in fit with each team winning two games Cleveland gained OF the leaders b, winning five out of six, it's orly defea being on Saturday at the hands Q New York.

 EIGHTH INNING
(Special to The Republican,

HAYDEN, Ariz., Aug. 26-A pitchers battle between Johnson and Leverett was broken up in an eighth inning rally by the Mill after two were out, netting three runs and icing the game. The Shelter men came back in the ninth but fell two short of even tieing the score. Leverett's generosity with bases on balls frequently had him in trouble, the two earned runs resulting from passes. DuGdy's fielding at third was exceptionally high class and Burch, catcher by trade, did equally well a. the same corner for the Mill Umpire Anderson had on his dark glasses and frequently missed strikes and balls Score:

TEMPE NEEDS HOUsES;. NEW SETTLERS COME

TEMPE, Aug. 27.-That many new settlers are daily coming into town is evident from the number of strange faces seen. It is estimated that 30 new families during the past two weeks would be a low estimate. Many of these people are looking for ranches and are experienced in raising cotton Houses in town are all taken and the problem of places to live for the many who will come in to take advantage of the schools is confronting the local real estate men. That Tempe needs a number of substantial houses to rent is evident

Toggery Proprietor Home

Geo. A. Johnson of the Mesa Tog- gery is at home after an absence of several weeks. most of which was spent in the eastern markets buying for the Mesa and Hayden Toggery stores. He is quite enthusiastic over the purchases made this trip, though he states that with the constantly ris- ing prices of all kinds of merchandise, it keeps the buyer constantly hunting and searching out the bargains that yet can be found.
 Mr Johnson says that everywhere through the east there is prosperity, and that while all the talk is about war, the note of confidence in the country's financial condition rings out loud and clear Like all other returning trav- elers, he finds that a trip to the east brings one into much more vivid re- alization that the United States is at war. Everywhere is preparation and marshalling of the assets in men and supplies for the great struggle into which the nation has entered. The Toggery proprietor is enthusiastic over the business outlook. and passing his prediction on conditions elsewhere, expects a most prosperous season in the Salt River Valley.

Cotton Prizes

A classified list of prizes for various cotton features has been announced by Secretary Evans of the Commercial club. As will be seen from studying the list some of the premiums will have to be held until the crop is en- tirely in. but those relating to the first bale will be delivered as soon as earned or at any rate on definite day following the earning. The premiums are as follows:
 For first bale of cotton ginned at Mesa, $40 in cash and merchandise.
 For second bale ginned at Mesa s26 in cash and merchandise.
 'ro wife of winner of first premium, $5 cash.
 To wife of winner of second prem inm--s5 cash.
 For best cotton picker-sl0 mer- chandise.
 For second best picker-s4.50 in merchandise
 To farmer cultivating not more than ten acres, best cotton-$5. To farmer ginning largest number of bales at Mesa gin-$5. Other prizes may be added later. It has been rumored that $500 was the price to be paid in cash and prem iums for the first bale of cotton to be paid in cash and premiums for the first bale of cotton to be brought to Mesa. This is an error since the above premiums are all that have been ar | ranged for.
