The Training Period Reains

We're in for dry spell, after tonight at midnight. By I've" i've the people of the whole United States" the people of Arizona it will be theor- etically nothing But practically, with the aid and activities of the booteggers many of have suffered only inconvenience and actual privation We suppose the people of the United States will find that dark angel of relief fluttering about them in their drouthy misery
 But the closed saloons will be something new and the wine and the gay places where wine mingled with song and dance, will be sad and gloomy for a time The country will go into training for real prohibition The period of training will not be long.

They have had suf- fcient warning against having surplus stocks on hand Beside the prices which they have been able to sell within the last year have recouped them many times over for any losses they may sustain from unsold goods remaining hand tonight.

Tommy Gives Certeis a Knockout Blow and We Run Away With
 "The Papers"


 The long stiffness after the struggle in the dark was terrible More than once 1 started to leave my hiding place, and then put the impulse aside and obeyed Tommy's order, Keep still" Suddenly it broke upon my excited brain that Tommy had had his own good reason for that command. He had made it for my own protection. He wanted me to remain concealed in case he should lose the fight And he preferred to fight in the dark, at tremendous disadvantage, when he knew the electric switch was in the door frame at his elbow, in order that Certeis might not, through any mis- chance, discover me in the cellar.
 Tommy is always guarding you, Jane Lorimer-and now you're too big coward to help him." said my re- proachful conscience. 'If he's down and out, he certainly needs you. And he needs you, far more, if he has kept his vow-if he has killed Hamilton | Certeis,"

An Incident of the War

We have not for a long time been deeply moved have been lately by C. G. HIS latest petition to the state corporation commission with reference to his two-year-old effort to the installation of a telephone at his country house. few hundred feet outside the corporate limits of Phoenix but yet well within the confines of civiza- ton.
 c. G. H. will be recognized the editor of our contemporary the "Camels Back and that fact probably accentuates interest in the matter. It is sad story mates and may be regarded at least collateral to American participation in the to make the world safe for democracy, aim that C. G. H. thinks has not been wholly attained for he is a democrat and he has not yet been given tele- phone. The war has prevented him from having telephone. Therefore he feels that he enjoys a peculiar and separate right to damn the kaiser the man who started it at Sarejevo Burleson. the tee- phone company and the corporation commission His is more comprehensive than any other we know of
 C. Gn HIS application for telephone back to time when being kept out of the war. Then suddenly the declaration and the mind of the telephone company was distracted from the application, but c. G. HIS was not. He took it up with the corporation commission but found that it merely another point on the circumference of the circle around which he running and which led him back through the telephone office again.
 Before he could stop himself the government had taken over the telephone wires. As enthusiastic admirer of the government it looked to C. G. H. as if he would land somewhere. He opened a cor respondence with MT, Bureson regarding his tele- phone. All the various assistant postmaster generals down the "steenh" spelled" Mir Burleson in car rying on his correspondence with c. G. H. who only learned that rules and regulations prevented an easy extension of the telephone service Everything was subservient to the needs of the nation war. Even good democrats must make sacrifices suf- fer prvations for democracy.
 Then came the armistce. c. G. H. on No- vember 12 the day following took up the matter with Burleson again and wanted know what was holding him At length he was directed to re- open the affair with the telephone company which to some extent was again managing it's own affairs. The government control, it explained was onry supervisory and did not extend to such intimate the installation of telephones on party lines not yet established.
 The telephone company was doubtful as to the power and authority which had been restored to it.. It still groping about in the wierd and uncer- newed his acquaintance with the corporation com mission through a touching petition which is a reci- tation of his adventures during the last and a half years.
 Unless the commission should afford relief, it is understood that c. G. H. will let the matter un- til after the ratification of the peace treaty the League of Nations has been organized and is ready for business.

 The taking away of that privilege does not justify revolt by either action words. If the sale the drinking of booze were right-that is vital right, and it had been taken away by tyrannical majority, then a revolution and revolu- tionary talk would be justified.
 MT Gompers has his remedy If the war time prohibition legislation please him and is good for labor, there is congress which promptly repeal it if it be shown that a majority of the people want it repealed By the same process if the people willing. that is very large majority them would now be required, to overturn what other very large majority decreed MT.

PHGEN|X YOUNG MEN
 AUTHORS IF SONGS

Two of the latest songs on the mar ket-and both of them seem destined for popularity-are the work of two Phoenix young men, Raymond Egan and Ray K. Marsh. This interesting fact developed a few days ago, when copies of the songs were received here.
 The songs are Dreams ana There's a Garden Down in Dixie Called Alabam, both published by R. A Stapleton and company of Los An geles Both are tuneful catchy melo- dies of the popular type. Sixteen hundred copies of them are just out, and more will probably follow.
 Both songs, as well as three others already placed with Charles K. Harris of Los Angeles, are the sole work of the two Phoenix young men. Ray mond Egan, who lives at 515 North | Fifth street, composed the lyrics for the songs, while his partner, Ray K, Marsh, of 1901 West Washington street, wrote the music.

NEW ARIZONA WATER
 COMMISSIONER WILL
 DO HIS BEST ON JOB

The new Arizona water commission CT, w. S. Norviel, is very much in earnest in the matter of his new job; at least that is the impression gath cred by a representative of The Re publican who called upon him yester- day to ask his plans for the organiza tion and operation of this department department and a position absolutely new to the state of Arizona.
 T have no plan as yet for the organ ization of the new department" said MT Norviel, flor the obvious reason hat I did not know of the appointment until about the same time the papers | told the public.
 T shall undertake to do the very best I can with the limited funds avail able until the department gets under way, securing the most competent help possible. and organizing the depart ment and getting to work at the earliest possible date, probably by the middle of August.
 Before that time I shall make a | trip to neighboring states that have sr ch departments, and make a careful study of their methods of operation, and learn as much as I can from the l experiences of the water officials In states where a similar department has | been. in operation for years.
 Tt is my intention to so organize | and conduct the office of the water | commissioner as to be of every pos sible assistance in the development of water in Arizona, and in the work of i flood control, water conservation and | use, and general development, and shall be glad to cooperate with any l and all organizations bent on doing something for the public good"

 T would suggest that all growers and dealers interested in the shipment of fruits and vegetables communicate with the corporation commission and file here at once all the information they have that has any bearing on the subject, so that we may be able to present the strongest possible case against the unfair and unjust ratss that the administration proposes to put into effect"

RAISE IN |C|NG
 RATES|SUN A|R TO THIS VALLEY
Phoenix Perishable Produce Shippers Victims of Rank Discrimination Pay Very Highest Rates

Another case of rank discrimination against Arizona, and particularly against the Salt River Valley" said F. A. Jones of the corporation commits sion. 'is the proposed raise in icing rates on perishable products proposed bv the railroad administration.
 The proposed raise and changes 1ii rates are unfair and discriminatory, and the commission, in behalf of the growers of perishable food products h' Arizona, will oppose the changes.
 "The railroad administration has is sued a book of 61S pages, containing the proposed changes and new rulings, and the matter is to be heard by the interstate commerce commission and it's recommendation in the matter made to the railroad administration.
 "There will be a series of hearings before c. R. Marshall, attorney exam iner for the commission, the first of which will be held for the Arizona Nevada California district at Los An geles on July '. I will be there to file the objections of this department in behalf of the growers and shippers ! of perishables in this state.
 Examples of the rates for icing pro- posed are raises from S92.50 to $120 per car from Phoenix to Kansas City; from | $97.50 up to $125 to St. Louis; from | S110 to $150 to Philadelphia, where many of our cantaloupes go. The rate from Yuma to Philadelphia proposed Is $11O, S30 less than the proposed Phoenix rate, and requiring the same number of icings as from Phoenix.
 This Valley Pays Highest Rates
 Right now this valley is paying a higher rate for icing than Yuma and the Imperial valley. and Imperial re quires an extra icing over both. l believe the perishable fruit and vege- table industry is still in its infancy III Arizona, particularly in this section, and considering the costs of production I do not believe the industries can stand the proposed raises and continue to exist
 we have letter here from Will liam Thompson of Glendale, for the | United Produce Growers association that gives me some very interesting figures in this matter. The valley vii ship this year about 5000 cars of frun and vegetables, according to MT Thompson. the average rate on tho icing being s1OO a car or $S00,000 1T all. The freight will be nearly S700,00( l the products for transportation an( icing alone, not considering the cost ol production, of nearly a million dollars
 This will include 2600 cars Of Can. taloupes, 200 of lettuce, and the re mainder other fruits and vegetables Cost accounts in the industry show that these products cannot stand thu raise.
 
 ''J. F. Barker, one of the local pro duce men, states that it is his belle that we are on the eve of an immens, and increasing production of fruit: throughout the season, and all sort: of vegetables, particularly late winter vegetables for the eastern and nor thern markets.

pendable service afterwards.
Chevrolet cars are built to
stand up under the strain and

are built to serve economically
and efficiently and to last long.
Chevrolet service is based
upon the principle that the
only kind of Chevrolet owners
worth having are pleased
ones. In it's operation true ap-
probation is given to the needs
of those who must use their
car with minimum operating
costs day in and day out every
month of the year.

BUILD WAREHOUSES; APPLY
ADMISSION STATE SYSTEM

Columbia, June 23.-Fully alive to
protection State Warehouses afford
against loss on their cotton by wealth
er damage or by fire, number of
farmers are planning to build plan
|tation of community warehouses
which will be taken in the State sys-
ITEM. w. G. Smith, State Warehouse
; Commissioner, who in anxious to see
enough warehouses built and put in
the State warehouse system to take
care of at least an additional 500,-
900 bales of cotton, said yesterday
that he would send from his office
in Columbia the necessary plans and
specification free of charge to farm
ers who would build warehouses this
summer to be units in the State sys-
tenn.
According to one estimate, "coun-
| try damage" alone cost the farmers
of South Carolina $14,175,000 on
the 1918 crop Of cotton. For this
sum, the States entire 1918 crop
could have been housed for over Is
months in the State warehouse sys-
tenn had warehouses been available.
Commissioner Smith said yester-
day that there was no "red tape"
about getting properly built ware
lhouse into the State system.
"First, build the warehouse" said
Commissioner Smith, "then apply
for it's admission into the State sys-
tenn. Then the State warehouse COM
missioner will lease the warehouse
for $1.0O a year and issue to the
owner or owners a license to operate
it as unit in the State system on
payment of fee of 50. Next the
law authorizes the commissioner to
name suitable person as warehouse
man and to bond him for from $1,000
to $4,000, according to the size of the
warehouse. AS soon as the ware
house is ready for business the COM
missioner keeps it's contents fully
covered by insurance against fire.
The warehouseman issues receipts
for each bale of cotton stored, which
receipts after being recorded in the
commissioners office and sealed
with the State seal, are negotiable
as security for loans at all banks"
A cotton warehouse with capac-
ity Of 200 to 500 bales can be built
at a cost of a little over dollar a
bale and 1000 bale warehouse can
be built for less than a dollar bale,
if farmers will adopt Commissioner
Smiths suggestion and use their
field hands on the construction dur
ing wet spells.
The fire underwriters have laid
down the following directions for
warehouse building which must be
followed:
For warehouse to hold 500 bales,
the building must be 100 feet long
by 45 feet wide by II feet high at
caves. The roof may be Of compost
ton material or metal, the sides and
ends Of boards or metal and the floor
of cement or dirt. There must be
one door in each end of the building
and three on each side (for 500
bale warehouse.) "No smoking"
signs must be displayed and bar
rel of water and two buckets pro-
vided for each 100 bales of cotton to
be stored. No cotton can be stored
in the warehouse until four days af-
ter it is ginned.
