MAY CONNECT SEWER SYSTEMS

A joint meeting of the City Councils of Nogales, Ariz, and Nogales. Son, was held last Wednesday, evening in the City Hall of this city. The object of the meeting was to discuss the sewer system between. the two !citities.
 There is a considera ble down grade from the Sonora side to this side of the international line and for this reason it would be to5the advantage of Nogales, Son, to have more complete system of sewerage than at present. This being recognized by both sides, the city engineers of the respective cities will co
 operate in the undertaking. rE
 At present the sewerage sys- tems of the two cities are con nected at Elias street and on Interna ational street east of Elias only. Itsis planned to build an other system connecting with one on this side running through Arroyo boulevard. <- The engineers were instructed to prepare an estimate of costs and other data, which will be presented to the two city coun : cils at their next meeting. when further action will be taken The Oasis.

N. E. L. AND p. COMPANY
Now Has One of the Best Equipped
 Plants in Arizona.

When the Nogales Electric Light and Power Go. completes the installation of second steam engine, which will be within a few days, the power plant of the company will be the best. equip. ped of it's size in the state of Arizona, says Wednesdays No gales Herald. t--...-..--...,'-
 The plant IS now approaching it's final development as origin ally planned. There are avaiIa- bfe 500 horsepower in steam en- zine capacity and 600 horse power in Diesel engine capacity, making a total of 1900 horse
 power, which is approximately 4o0 horsepower more than the present requirements of the company.
 The company officials feel that they should have 8 capacity enough, so as to enable the plant at any time, to take over the entire load of the town.
 The steam units which have recently been installed, are not quite as efficient as far as fuel consumption is concerned, as are the DiesSel units, but are much more reliab In lighting it is extremely important that the service be unlnterrup and the best practice at present demands that the power plant serving the public should have at least 50 per cent steam power in order to insure continuity of service.
 The judgment of the officials of the company in this respect has been fully justified. as dur, ing the last year, this company has not had serious shutdown; :; in fact, at no time has the light ing in the main business district, on the lines of this company, been interrupted during the last year.

Frederick c. Emery, president of the Aztec Consolidated Min ing Co.,, operating mines in So nora, has just returned from a six mouths trip to Europe. Dur ing most of this time he was in England and France, although he visited Germany, Belgium, Czecho- Slovakis and Poland. MT. Emery tells of the great difficulties these countries are having to get back to normal pre- war production. Ia England the mines are working far, more men than ever before and are unable to produce 80 per cent of normal pre- war output. Steel and textile plants are unable in many cases to produce even 60 per cent of the pre- war output. Every where in England you find the labor unrest; this, together with the Irish question, is giving the Government leaders plenty to think of.
 France is rapidly getting back to normal, but prices are high and labor is scarce. The people all seem to have money as shown by the over subscription to the recent war loan.
 Belgium is nearer normal pro duction than all the countries, but needs greater finances to carry her.
 Germany looks prosperous and shows less signs of the war than
 
 Poland produced large quant- ities of wheat and sugar the past year, which has helped 'fnan- cially in establishing her new republic. The extreme rich and the extreme poor of Poland are making it trather difficult for all factions to work together. -s.'<; @e The occupation of Poland by Germany was, in a way, great benefit. Germany expecting to keep Poland made great i'm provements. The old wide guage Russian railroads were all abandonedsand>i ind ustriaf works 2 were established.
 Czecho Slovakia has a wonder ful future if she can successfully market: her production. This little republic was given terri tory which took in about 80 per cent of all of Austria's indus trials and mines. The people are thrifty and hard working.
 MT. Emery, when asked in re- gard to the League of Nations, says emphatically that we should be represented, but not obligat ed. We must know all the in side workings of the other na tions of the world for our own protection. Our over prod uction will in the future go to the other nations as never before. No na tion in the world can compete with our cheap and moderate priced automobiles. Even after paying 25 per cent duty into England our cars are going over there by the thousand.
 The greatest difficulty the past year in marketing American pro, ducts has been the big auctua- tion of the exchange. With the exchange stabilized the Euro pean nations will take all Amer ica's over production. ..-...
 MT. Emery says that after all there is no place like the old U. S. A. and he is happy to be back home again.
 MT. Emery has been operating mines in Sonora for the past fifteen years and is now putting in mill at his Marivilla silver mine.

The move resulting in consolidated telephone service in
Grand Forks originated in the Commercial Club while Mr.. M. F.
and others were directors; on Saturday, July 22nd, 1916, Mr..
Graves, the Secretary of the Club consulted the City Attorney in
the matter of physical connection between the two systems; after
investigation, Mayor Dinnie, in his 1912 annual message recon-
Senator w S. Whitman, chairman; Aldermen Turner and Kleven
and Messrs. F. L. Goodman and Owen Young. @
In the spring Of 1918 after exhaustive Investigation, prepara-
tons were made to apply to the Railroad Commissioners for an
order compelling physical Connection.
Then the Minnesota Board of Railroad Commissioners
ordered the Tri7State and the Northwestern Companiss to divide
their territory, cease competition and consolidate their plants on
the plan subsequently adopted in this city; this action was taken
with the approval of the Federal authorities; it was an economic
measure, as well as as a war measure and the purpose was to save
useless and unnecessary Implications and expense.
Under this order the lr-State Company withdrew from the
northern portion and the Northwestern Co, withdrew from the
southern portion of Minnesota, leaving the Tri-State Exchange in
Grand Forks without any toll connection, save over the North
western lines; it was an entirely isolated and disconnected unit
situated more than 300 miles from the nearest Tri-State Exchange.
The Tri-State franchise expires in 1923 Gust 3 years more)
at which time the Company could Withdraw from the city, even if
it could not do so at an earlier date; when the Minnesota eonsoGda-
/tion was agreed upon, the Tri-State Co. applied to the City Council
Northwestern;i it was first considered at the meeting Of July 9Th,
1918; the special committee consisting Of Whitman, Kleven,
Turner, Goodman and Young, reported in favor of such action; the
matter was continued until July 29th, and public notice was given
in the newspapers asking all citizens interested to meet with the
Council to discuss the matter. a z1
The Directors of the Commercial Club met on July Goth, at
which there were present, Messrs. Stricken, Burchard, McNicol,
Barnes, Moore; Bartholomew and others, and a resolution was
adopted that "the Council grant the request Of the Tri-State Tee-
phone Co, and give permission for the sale Of their interests to the
Northwestern Co"
Gillette were absent but II members as follows, Kelsey, Davidson,
Lockrnan, Grifiths Whitman, Hulteng, Day, Bird, Turner, Keven
and Peterson voted in favor Of permitting the sale.
Prior thereto on July 22nd,5 the government had given notice
that on July 31st, it would take possession and control Of all eee-
phone lines and its policy had already been fore-shadowed to- the
effect that it intended to consolidate all competing systems;

Bulletin No. 8 August 9TH, 1918 % days after the Grand Forks a-
,ton) by the Postmaster General, said: N
W The Governmental operation and control of the telephone
systems of the country will undoubtedly cause the consolidation of
competing systems wherever possible W. 1%@.. @
By permitting the consolidation Of the two exchanges, more
than $l5OOW per month was saved to the people Of this city for
there were more than 500 duplicated phones; the saving exceeded
$40 100000 per year.
Notwithstanding the invitations, and notice given, there was
no opposition by.anyone tohthis action by the Council; it was
recognized as essential and proper and the necessarysand right
thing to do; the city gave nothing away; every right of tie city was
projected and, in any event. the Council merely anticipated a few
days; the action of the Government. ! III a.
Under the consolidation agreement the Northwestern Com
pany furnished the city with the same number OF tree telephones as
had been furnished by the Tri-State Company, j. e, q phones:
a committee consisting Of s.: Weestecn, M sehaberg; N: 2
FIR mayor satisfactory to alt factions and less than4 months there
after that same mayor so selectedby these gentlemen approved the
telephone consolidation; the negotiations had run through the
terms of two mayors and both had approved thereof.
In the spring of 1919, about s months after the telephone
consolidation, onehalf Of the Council including Aldermen Lock-
man; Bird and Kleven, who had voted for the TELEPHONE consoida7s
ton were reelected practically without opposition and in the spring
of 1920 the remaining half Of the Council consisting Of Aldermen
Kelsey Davidson, Grifiths, FIulteng, Day, Turner and Peterson,
who had voted for the telephone consolidation were elected prac-
ticany without opposition @ F IS.
And thus at least twice the people have ratified the telephone
consolidation by reeecting the aldermen who negotiated and car
red the matter through with their votes.
The foregoing is a brief statement Of the telephone facts;
anyone desiring 50 to do can examine the records and tiles in the
the members 81 the Council; every fair minded intelligent man will
agre that the Council acted for the best interest Ct the city and its
people. /,
