Will Give Huge Supply of Power.
 The plans call for one power plant about 60 miles north of Williams, where a dam 400 feet high will be built. The second plant is to be locat- cd about so miles northwest of King man. where d dam 300 feet high will be built. These two plants will develop 5000 k. W. or sufficient power to supply every demand in Arizona for the next 25 years.
 That these two giant generators Of electrical power will furnish the stim ulus to make Arizona one of the great est producing states in the union is the opinion of MT. Cameron, who pointed out the great resources which only await development here.
 When I made a statistical survey of the state in 1909 I found that the mines furnished S4 per cent of the total revenue of the state, Agriculture fur pished only one per cent. There has been little change in the ratio since then. The foundation of all countries is agriculture. and to get on the map, Arizona. must develop its farm lands. There are nearly four million acres of land which cannot be irrigated by stored water. But these barren lands nay be made productive by the use OF bumped water, and the two power plants in the northern part of the state will Do the means of redeemin6 these lands.-
 WfiI Help irriqate $500 900 Acres.
 Mfr. Cameron said that high officials of the Southern Pacific railroad and prominent engineers had made a care ful study of the land in the southern part of the state and ascertained that in that section sufficient water can be pumped to irrigate about 3,50o,00O acres of land. The water ranges in depth from 35 to 80 feet
 The opening of these lands to prac- tical development would furnish farms for about 10000 families. This power could be furnished by the two big plants at a very low cost. The ranchers would get his current direct from main lines. He would also have the advan- tage of directing his energies entirely to his own lands instead of assisting in the upkeep of an extensive irriga- ton system
 An encouraging indication that the project will soon go through is the interest that the Santa Fe railroad is taking in its realization, according to Mr Cameron. Officials of this railroad have been considering the plan for several years. They contemplate cleo trifying the main line of the Santa Fe railroad from Gallup, N. M. to Bar stow. Cal and the branch lines from the Grand Canyon to Phoenix and from Phoenix to Cadiz- The present shortage of oil and coal is tending to make other railroads throughout the country turn to electrical power.
 Will Use Private Capital
 By the use of current from the two power plants the mines can not only obtain power to bring ore to the sur face but they will be enabled to snelt the minerals at a low cost.
 Mir. Cameron said he had assurances that the railroads and mines would subscribe for enough power to care for the interest on the bonds. He said it would not be necessary to ask for federal aid in carrying out the pro feet. as there was sufficient private capital interested to assure it's success.

President and Mime. Deschanel PARIS-There is a determined move on foot in political circles to elect successor to President Paul Deschanel. The president has not been in good health and three months leave of ab- sence appears to have done him no good. He has a great dread of crowds and public functions and this is a large part of a French executives public life.
 Some say he suffers from loss of memory and the hallucination that the whole world is prosecuting him.

Ancient Rome Had Strike.

On the word of declpherer Of an
cient records there was, In the year
300 Il. c., strike of the musicians
union In Rome. The officials of Rome.
1t appears, thought that the musicians
should play without pay at forthcom-
ing festival In honor Of Jupiter The
musicians thought otherwise, and al-
though Rome, then engaged In one of
the Samnlte wars, had little money to
spend for music, declined not to "do
their bit" by performing without pay.
Apparently the argument that they
were really playing for Jupiter himself
was tried without effect. So the city
officials decided on an appeal to public
opinion; they evolved stratagem by
which they decoyed the striking mu.
siCians to the scene Of the festival, and,
with all Rome looking eXrectantIy at
them the musicians changed their
minds and there was music WS usual.
