daily. One meets so many stranger
these days until he begins to wonder.
What's it all about?" It's because
Phoenix is the biggest little town ir

in the U. S. A.

Distinguished Visitor
Dr. w. e. Rainwater, a practicing
physician of Ardmore, Okla, was o
business visitor in Phoenix this week
DR.. Rainwater has been visiting his
brother, Mr.. e. E. Rainwater of Yuma
md also his son, who is in that city
or the benefit of his health The doc
or was surprised to learn that 1900
colored people are living in Phoenix.
He spent all day Tuesday and a part
Of Wednesday looking over the city
and expressed his disappointment in
hndlng so few business enterprises op
rated by our people. with a colored
population of 1900 individuals" said
DR.. Rainwater, you should have at
least one drug store, an up-to-date res
taurant, an amusement park and sev
eral mercantile establishments owned
md operated by members of the race"
We assured him that on his next visit
to Phoenix he would find all these
things in operation among the enter
prising colored citizens of this great
city. DR.. Rainwater left Wednesday
evening over the Santa Fe for his
home in Ardmore. Incidentally, the
TRIBUNE will follow.
Rev. Herring Doing Nicely
Our California subscribers, who are
mostly former residents of Phoenix
or some other part of Arizona, have
made special request for news every
week that will inform them of the
condition of Rev. R. H Herring, pas.
or of the A. NJ E. church here They
suggest that we insert a small article
each week so that his California
friends may keep posted until he has
fully reyocered from the effects of
the broken leg. We, are pleased to
say that the reverend and wife are
both doing nicely. Rev. Herring per-
formed a marriage ceremony about
two weeks ago, so you may know he
is feeling pretty good. Personally, we
believe Rev. Herring and wife are in
the same boat with the editor of the
Tribune. The editor feels that he has
received his share of verbal aid and
what he would very much like to re-
ceive, right along through here is ma
.erial assistance. We want more sub
cribers to the Tribune so we can
yrow into a regular eight page paper.
Indications are that we shall have to
give you eight pages this week; if we
do, it will not be a regular thing, be-
cause we must have 1000 subscribers
before we can keep up an eight-page
paper Actions speak loudest. Place
your own Interpretation on this.

before been called on to treat such
peculiar disease. Later discoveries
disclosed the fact that this was influ-
enza. After that. the quarantine
camps were full, the quarantine yards
were full, and there were more on the
outside waiting for admission We
had to put upsabout 75 or more tents,
and even this was not enough, be-
cause they were still coming. Many
were forced to lie in the hot sun until
we could fix a place to receive them.
In order to accommodate all we were
compelled to use the old Vets Hall
as a hospital. We had fully $4,000
patients. 1t was at this time the Med
ical Department had to work day and
night in order to administer to all.
We were assigned to no particular
section, consequently we had to skip
from tent to tent in order to give each
man the same amount of attention.
When we made a second investigation
of the cases, we found quite few had
developed into pneumonia. Then
things began to grow worse. The.
death rate began TO add up on US.
You would look at your patient this
minute, and the next time you came
around he would be dead. We had
to take other steps to prevent the
death totals from piling up. On the
third examination we found a few
cases of meningitis, measles and
mumps and had to nurse them also.
We segregated these patients from
the others. So, you see, one can never
tell what's coming to him, if we allow
influenza to have its course in and
around our cities.
Symptoms of the Disease
What l want to impress upon the
reader is, that Spanish influenza does
not select it's victims. 1t attacks the
old as well as the young. So don't get
the idea that you are going to miss
catching it because you are too young
or too old. 1t viii get you if you are
only twelve years old the same as it
would a person seventy years old.
That is one reason why I so strongly
advise that every precaution be taken
to prevent the spread of this disease.

To Err Is Human

To Err is Human-
HE who makes no mistakes, does
nothing and he who makes too many
loses his job" This sign or one sim
liar, met our eyes the moment VIC
entered an elevator in a certain build
ing in Phoenix. We have had occa-
sion recently to reflect on that sign.
Two issues in succession we have
been guilty of making slight mis-
take in printing the advertisement for
the Black Diamond Barber Shop To-
Gated at SO South Second street. First
we said you would find the shop at
80 South Second street; we corrected
this by supplying the 3, and made
another mistake by writing MRS.
BRADY as owner Of the shop where
as, we should have written MR..
BRADY. The proprietor of this popu
lar tonsorial parlor said that he had
one awful time trying to convince his
wife that HE was still the boss of
that shop. Mrs Brady told her hus-
band that she had become to regard
the Tribune as a reliable newspaper
and when she read an article in it
she naturally took it for granted that
the statements contained therein were
true. She has finally consented to re-
linquish her claim Of ownership.

DANCE GIVEN IN HONOR OF
 GOVERNOR AND MRS. RIGGS

Cordova,-Laste evening Governor and Mrs. Thomas Riggs, Jr., were the guests of honor at dance giYeI given ly the Home Guards in Eagles hall, which was largely attended py town folk, who spent several hours very pleasantly. The best of music was provided, and the af- fair was most enjoyable.
 Upon invitation of Mayor Hillery the governor consented to make a short talk to the quests assembled, and in happy vein he pictured the greatness of Cordova and it's bright future insisting th"t all those who now left the territory would later be glad to come back and share In the prosperity that was surely In store for Alaska. He said that he liked the hospitablA and optimistic spirit of Cordovans, and hoped to make two more visits here this fall'
 Governor Riggs became very en- thusIastic in speaking of the Home Guards, which he thought was fine organization and should be maintained in the territory in time of peace as we'll ss war. That Its members could Oe depended upon to safeguard the interests of the ocal people he was quite assured and he hoped to see flourishing guard in every community, fostered under a new legislative act which he expected to see passed at the next session of the legislature.
 The governor and Mrs. Riggs eX- press ed thems elves as being high ly pleased with the cordial treat ment they rce5ved. in Cordova, be- fore they left on this mornings train for Chitina, or, their trip over the trail to Fairbanks.

EVERYBODY HAS IT IN
 FOR THE DOLLY WARDEN

If the Dolly Warden trout were destroyed, and the predatory birds, such as terms, saw-bill, and gulls, reduced sufficiently in numbers, the amount of salmon that would be available for food purposes would be double what 1t is at present, is the opinion of Jack Harrington, now captain of the cannery tender "Elsinore," operated by the Vend- syssel Packing company of Tyee. Tt means" he said, "that instead of being able to take 50 million dollars worth of salmon yearly, 100 million dollars worth might be taken if protection were given the salmon against these predatory crea tures."
 Captain Harrington has been fishing off and on for many years in Southeastern Alaska and has Deen a close observer at all times. As an effective method of attacking the Dolly Warden trout, he .adVo- cates the use of dynamite. "I have seen many, of these trout cut open in the spring when the salmon fry were coming out of the fresh water streams, he said and they, invariably contained hundreds of little sal mon fry about one inch long. One fish had oyer 1900 of salmon fry actual count. The trout lie in pools at the mouths of the streams awaiting the arrival of the fry It is just before the young salmon begin to come down that the dyna- miting should be done. 1 John N. Cobb, essistant general manager for the Alaska Packers association, denounced the Dolly Warden trout without reservation Fishermen usually disagree on methods for the protection of the fish, but there is lhis one point on which they all seem to agree, that the Dolly Warden trout is the worst enemy the young salmon has to contend with. Not only do the trout attack the fry shortly after matching, but they devour salmon eggs in even greater numbers than they do the fry. ....
 As a solution to the predatory bird problem, Captain Harrington believes in destroying the eggs and young wholesale at the rookeries' A vigorous campaign carried on for two or three years, would, in his opinion, so reduce their numbers that the harm done by the few left would be negligibla-Dispate
