The Sooner You Join the San Carlos Association and Send Your Check the Sooner You Get Results

Absolute agreement. positive and universal determination to get results, and entire willingness to Ego the limit" in subscribing to the fund to pay for the campaign of organization, pub licity and personal work necessary to get the desired result-the apropri- ation of enough money to build the San Carlos dam--this is the attitude of the people of Florence-Casa Grande valley.
 Without a dissenting vote the meet ing adopted a form of agreement to bind themselves together into a con- crete and workable association, and to pledge the funds needed to do the work Here is the form, if you own land under the project, and have not signed up, the committee suggests that you cut this form out of The Republican, fill it in, and mail it to the San Carlos association at Florence, together with your check to cover your assessment.
 Following the unanimous acceptance by the meeting of landowners of this agreement, the Casa Grande section met in one side of the gymnasium and the Florence section on the other, to select the three members of the com nittee, and in five minutes came in and reported that they had unanimous ly selected the same members of the 2 committee who mad so well served the community in putting over' the diver . sion dam, which has now been assured,

QUEER TRADES IN PARIS
fNew York Sun

All manner of queer trades flourish in Paris. Some Parisians devote them selves to the raising of bird food. Al one time the inhabitants of a certain quarter were attacked by an inexpllca- ble irritation Of the skin. All up and down one street people were scratching themselves from morning to night, and this lasted till the dwellers in that quarter looked almost like colony of lepes. Finally the authorities looked into the matter and discovered that the doings of a certain m'selle Marie were the cause of the difficulty.
 She was a breeder of ants. or. more strictly speaking. a raiser of ants eggs

BULLETIN STORY IF SAN CARLOS DAY
 BY TED HEALy

In his own inimitable style, in the Casa Grande Bulletin, "Ted" Hetley tells the story of the big day at Flor ence when the people of the twin val leyagot together and determined to put ovH the San Carlos dam project
 The Republican stoff takes consid- erable pride in Healy and his doings, for Ted was a member of the staff for many years, and before that, as bare foot boy. sold Republicans to the cit izens of the "Old Puebla.'
 But that was long before he reached the dignity of being one of the chief boosters for the San Carlos, the editor and publisher of a perfectly good news paper, and the county immigration commissioner of Pinal county. He may have some more jobs. but these are all we have been abole to ferrit out Part of his interesting review of the 1 day, which appeared in the Bulletin August Is, is herewith reproduced: Never in it's history has Florence ever seen such a day. Before the morning sun had tinted the fringe of fleecy clouds on the eastern horizon a rosy hue, automobiles from every direction, and on all roads, began to arrive at Pinal county's seat of gov ernment Casa Grande was deserted city.
 First among the arrivals were the press cars of the big state papers, loaded with reporters and moving pie | ture operators and their work started with the dawning of the new day. Pic l lures were taken of the Gila river showing that wanton waste of flood water flowing across country uselessly and destructively sabtracting instead of adding to the nations wealth, then came the motion views of the rieh | fertile lands under cultivation por- | traying scenes of wealth and content | ment gained by the diverting of a small quantity of the Gila's life giving waters, while surrounding the patches of green stretched acres and acres of as lequally rich soil, thickly covered with
 semi desert growth of mesquite, igreasewood, sage brush and native grasses. An agricultural empire, awaiting the waters of the San Car los. Over 220,000 acres of the finest
 land on earth ready to produce abund- antly at the magic touch of the water now flowing uncontrolled to the sea.
 The moving pictures will carry direct
 to the people and to Congress argu-
 ments that in the construction of the
 San Carlos dam the government is
 transacting good business, creating
 homes fer the people, and taxable
 wealth for the nation, and losing
 nothing.
 Shortly after sunrise the historica
 little city on the banks of the Gila
 was packed with an immense throng
 and they kept coming Off to the
 north in the sky a tiny speck an

county, and a consistent worker for the advancement of the community; W. L Davidson, a prominent rancher of Flor ence district, who has never been known to spare time or personal ex- pense in working for the advancement of his community; and E. c. Clements, cattleman and rancher, a progressive booster for everything of interest to the community.
 The Casa Grande members are A. A. Jayne, formerly noted Oregon purist, a man well beloved in his own com munity for his consistent helpfulness in all civic and patriotic movements; w. S. Prouty, formerly an Eastern at torney, who came to the valley in 1912 with his family, and has ever since been a strong worker for the recla- nation movement; Judge F. D. Over field, formerly a federal court judge in Alaska, who in the past few years has put in a big cotton plantation in the Casa Grande district, and is re- garded as one of the most aggressive and best business men in the com- munity.
 The seventh member has not yet been selected by the committee, and it has not been decided just who he will be or what his qualifications ar' to be. It is generally conceded by the two districts that the seventh mar should not be from either Casa Grande or Florence, but from the outside, and that he should be either an irrigation and reclamation enthusiast who under stands publicity or a big man from some other part of the state who is willing to devote his own time and money and influence to the cause fol the sake of progress.

- - LOSSES WOULD FEED ARMY
Philadelphia Public Ledger

Philadelphia Public Ledger)
 The meat ration for an American army of three million men could be fur nished from the animals lost through exposure in a single year, exposure meaning starvation in most cases.
 These figures are taken from the government reports for the last record ed year. 1917-1S. Most of this wastage is preventable, and the American Red Star Animal Relief branch of the Women's Pennsylvania Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, which has just celebrated it's fiftieth anniversary will. during the coming year, stress it's efforts in this direction.
 In such states as Maine, where a1- most all stock is farm fed, only two in a thousand of the cattle are lost through exposure, though it is as cold as Colorado. where the loss is 27 in each thousand. because so many cattle are on the open range throughout the year. In Montana, the loss runs as high as 34 while for sheep the figures reach 5S in Wyoming.

SPECIAL ROADS FOR MOTORISTS
(Manchester Guardian)

But it is hard and dusty world for the mere pedestrian, not to .say q perilous one. The quiet, leafy lanes of Old England are gone for ever, it would seem. Yet there are surely sufficient admirers of 'Shank's pony to form some sort of society for the protection of the pedestrians ancient rights on the road. Why should it not be put to the army of motorists that they now need roads of their own, as exclusive as the railways, on which they could set at defiance the limita- tions of time and place to their hearts content, with no risk to anybody's s lives and limbs but their own?

JEWISH MONITOR, THE EX-
elusive JEWISH PAPER OF
THE GREAT SOUTHWEST. /:
The Jewish monitor. (Fort Worth-Dallas, Tex.) 191?-1921, 1919-06-20

As the Germans dwindled away
through the trees into the night, the
men Of the 307th came up on the right,
with food and ammunition in abund-
ance. A half hour later, patrols Of the
3O6th were reported coming in from
the south The relief was complete.
The fight of the "Lost Battalion"
battalion that was never "lost"-
over. On the morning Of the 9th, the
252 survivors Of the 679 that had en-
tered 1.-THE Pocket, with their sick
and wounded, marched south through
the deep ravine to rest.
Their hill side is now quiet. The
dead lie sleeping in a little enclosure
near the western border of the valley
The crash of minenwerfers and the
whine Of the bullets is stilled. But if
the trees on the torn slope of France
could ever break the silence, they
would say "By these splintered wounds
you see upon US, we will live to mark
the valor of the Americans"

coming from THE rear and right flank.
Beyond the fraction Of doubt. it
was the long-hoped for, despaired of
relief. 1t was brother Americans of
the 77th Division furiously fighting
their way through. Sheer exhaustion
forced the tears from the eyes of men
to whom the hope of life was return
ing. The Boche, however, was not
quite Through. In one last desperate
effort to impress his humane senti-
ments" on the survivors in "The Pock-
et," he descended with all his forces
on the right flank. For this attack, he
had reserved his liquid fire, and
scorching flames shot into our ranks.
But our men were revived. They
sprang into the fight to the tune of
every choice oath in the English Ian
guage. Our one remaining machine
gun at last was firing at target point
blank. In word and deed, the Huns got
hell, and back they crumbled never to
come on again.

will, believing that he is doing wrong
to his country, to carry forward this
present letter to the officer in charge
of the battalion of the 18th Division,
with the purpose to recommend this
commander to surrender with his
forces, as it would be quite useless to
resist any more, in view of the pres
ent conditions.
"The suffering of your wounded
men can be heard over here in the
German lines, and we are appealing
to your humane sentiments to stop. A
white flag shown by one of your men
will tell US that you agree with these
conditions. Please treat Private
as an honorable man. He is quite a
soldier. We envy you.

FICER."
Major Whittlessey read the note and
passed it over to Captain McMurtry.
He read it and handed it to Captain
Holderman. The three officers looked
at one another and a grim smile
wrinkled their features. 1--WE are ap-
pealing to your humane sentimerls
to STOP" This, after six days of the
most inhuman warfare conceivable
hurled at them by THE Boche in at
tempts to annihilate, that had failed.
1t was almost funny.
The fact of the receipt of the note
soon spread over the hill. Men too
weak to stand on their feet raised
themselves up on their elbows and
cried: "You Dutch come
over and get u.s." That was the only
response.
Another answer was on it's way to
the Boche. That very evening the
crackle of musketry and the rat-tat-tat

on the ears of the beleaguered men,
