ARizoNA'S WONDERFUL CAVE

Colossal Cave, located about
twenty two miles east of Tucson,
near Vail, will receive extensive
advertising as one of the major
attractions on the Sunset route
of the Southern Pacific company
in the near future, if plans now
in progress materialize, it was
announced yesterday by Preston
@. Dawson, chief clerk in the
Office of the traffic manager here,
says the Tucson Star of recent
date.
Mr.. Dawson indicated that the
decision of the Southern Pacific
company to exploit the caves
widely was largely the result of
a feature article in the Arizona
Daily Star a few weeks ago,
which attracted the attention of
the passenger traffic manager in
San Francisco to the pheno-
menon in this vicinity.
An exploration of the Colossal
Caves. one of the greatest won
ders of their kind in America, to
learn additional facts regarding
them, their probable extent,
character of formations and
most scenic features, will pre-
cede the initiation of the exten-
sive advertising, according to
Mr.. Dawson, who stated that
Charles Fee, passenger traffic
manager of the Southern Pacific
has taken an active interest in
the exploitation of the caves and
directed that inquiries be made
regarding them.
The traffic clerk declared that
the Southern Pacific has in pro.
cess of preparation a new book
upon the scenic features and
other advantages of Arizona and
New Mexico. and stated that q
portion of this publication will
be devoted to the Colossal Caves
"Wayside Notes." another ad-
vertising publication dealing
with the Sunset Route, will also
include a description of the caves
near here, while practically all
other advertising means adopted
by the railway line will contain
some articles or reference to
them.
Mr.. Dawson stated that the
fact that it has been ascertained
running water exists in the cave
is an important feature, and that
this will be exploited also.
Large photographs taken OF
the beautiful interior Of the caves
are now on exhibition in the
windows of the McCann Drug
Store, at Sixthyavenue and Con-
gress street, these typifyinR the
stalactites and stalagmites for
which the cave is noted.

PLAIN HORSE SENSE.

Trade at Home-Buy Arizona
Products Week. to be observed
March 10Th to Oath, will not be
devoted to an attempt to- make
people buy at home regardless
of valuables obtainable, but
rather to showing the people it
is good business forthem to give
their home merchants the first
chance when they need any.
thing - -
Local merchants who are par
ticipating in the week are not
asking anyone to buy from the m
without considering quality and
price, it was pointed out. But
they are asking everyone to see
what they before they send out
side the money which is needed
to improve home business, which
affects all the people, regardless
of occupation. &
Trade at home, it was empha
sized, is not patriotism SO much
as good business. Prosperity
operates in circle. The pros
perity of the individual is con
trolled mainly by the prosperity
of the community. The pros
perity of the community is reg
ulated by the business done
there. And business in turn de
pends on the individual. Thus
it is that everyone will help him
self, directly or indirectly, BY
keeping his money at home
whenever possible. .--Prospector

GOOD NEWS.
Construction of S. p. de M. r. r. to
Start Immediately.

E. 3. Sloan. chief engineer for
the Southern Pacific de Mexico
Railroad, passed through No
gales yesterday in his private
car Sonora, on his way to take
charge of active construction
work on the link between .Tepic
and La Quemada, Of the main
line OF that railroad, says Wed
nesday's Democrat.
In an interview with repre-
sentative of The Democrat, Mr..
Sloan stated that active con.
struc,ion work on the Tepic end
of the link would commence
within a very few days, and that
it is now already under way
north from La Quemada.
Mr.. Sloan is also authority for
the statement that new surveys
of the line are now being made,
and that instead of the heavy
grades, which were accepted in
the original plan for the road
over the mighty Sierra Madre
mountains, it had. now been
found possible to construct the
road with maximum of u %
grade, and this for only a short
| distance, the most of the road
being / per cent grade and un.
der.
The new line of the road over
and through the mountains will
have 26, 600 feet of tunnels ard
5000 feet of viaducts and steel
bridges. On account of the
mighty barrancas or canyons,
some Of these bridges will be
very high, and long.
The road when completed will
be one of the most scenic routes
in the world, traversing as it
does the wonderful West Coast
of Mexico, and over the mighty
Sierra Madres to the central pla.
teau of Mexico.
When completed tourists and
travellers will be enabled for in.
stance to board a Pullman OF
Seattle, Washington, or Port
land, Oregon, and travel in the
same car clear through to Mexi
co City. This will be the long.
est stretch of railroad under the
control Of one company in the
world, and will route thousands
of tourists through Nogales
yearly, besides adding greatly
to the already enormous freight
traffic through this port.
Mr.. Sloan also verified the re
port, printed in the. Democrat a
few days ago that reconstruction
work has already started on the
| Alamos branch from jNavojoa,
and stated that laborers are now
cutting brush Oh the Tonichi
branch out of Corral, and thai
active reconstruction of this line
| will also start in the very near
future.
After a couple of days in Em.
paine, Mr.. Sloan goes direct tc
[ Topic to take active charge OF
the construction work.

 The memorial points out that the First Division. as compared to other divisions, is fairly densely populated. while the most important town In it, Ju- neau, ia 600 miles distant from. CordoYa, its next nearest neighbor to the North in the Third Division. The memorial claims: the other three divi- sions of the Territory of Alaska are largely tributary to the Government Railroad extend- ing from Seward to Fairbanks and have resources and inter- ests separate widely divergent from the interests of the First Division.

BY JOE WILLIAMS

CLEV ELAND Oct. 16.-Step out
and grab the short holes and let
the long ones run for the esteem
ed Mr.. Sweeney.
We are speaking Of golf and the
supposedly simple par-three holes
as distinguished from the long, diff
ficult par-fve tests.
Your average golfer heaves a
sigh of prodigious relief when he
comes to a short hole, a simple
mashie pitch to a patch of velvety
green 155 yards away.
1t looks easy. And in point of
effort and energy it is. One shot
and you are on the green-maybe
If the shot is exceptionally well
played you are close to the hole
and putting for a birdie. Say just
does get on, you still have two
puts and an even chance for par.

The Simple, Short, One Shot /
Holes Won for Man M0rStOn
Beat Francis Ouimet at Flossmoor Because of His
Success on Short Holes Covering
Course

And your average player has no.
yet advanced to such point of in
difference that par means utterly
nothing in his life.
Now, are these short, simple, one
shot noles easy? Is the average
player always within whispering
distance of par? He is not. Nor.
for that matter, is his aloofish
brother the star. The fact is, the
short holes are usually hardest 10
play, the most stubborn in yielding
perfect scores. More champion
ships have been lost on badly play
ed short holes thfn on well-play-
ed long holes.
Marston of Philadelphia, Meth
odical Max, is the amateur cham
pion of the works today because
he played the short holes at the
long Flossmoor course better, G"
at least, with greater success, than
