JORDAN AND THE SEA LIONS.
Will Discuss the Project to Extermi-
nate the Beasts

The Fish and Game Commissioners are
receiving quite a number of letters ac-
cepting the invitation to attend the meet
ing at which will be discussed the propo-
sition to thin out the large sea lion herds
that are found along the coast. Nearly
all are in favor of the project, believing
that If something of the kind is not done
before very long the salmon and other
fish interests will suffer much from the de-
structive beasts. Those interested in
commercial way present valuable data as
to the destructive habits of the sea lions
and express the hope that the work of de-
creasing the herds will not be deferred to
another season. Some opposition was eX-
pected from Professor David Starr Jor-
dan. who it was believed would be in op-
position from a sentimental standpoint
fessor to be present at the meeting, the
learned gentleman sends the following:

On receipt of the report the tenn
porary organization was made perma-
nent and the following gentlemen were
elected directors by the votes of the
shares represented: E. B. Gage. w.
NJ AdamsOn, Con O'Keefe, a Mel
garejo and ]. Henry Wood. The chair
announced the election of the directors
who had received a majority of the
200, 900 shares of stock. The meeting
then adjourned until o'clock, when
the minutes were read, accepted and
approved. If any other, business was
transacted it has not been made pub
lie.
In the meantime the other meeting
was organized at the office of Col.

elected. The names of the directors

the Cananea stockholders on the
theory that the $4,000 shares voted by
Costello was not properly represented.
since he had not paid for them, but
were treasury shares.
Two questions We're asked concern
ing these meetings. One was what
the Wood meeting expected to gain by
keeping up its organization since the
property upon which the stock is based
IS in the hands of the Cananea men.
The other was why the Cananea stock
holders should have gone through the
formality of holding a Cobre Grande
meeting a all. Neither question was
answered by anybody in authority but
it was conjectured regarding the first,
that the Costello people were putting
themselves in shape to institute legal
proceedings in Mexico for the recovery
of the property. Regarding the second
inquiry, it was surmised that the Can
anea people were DESTROYS of preserv-
ing their Cobre Grande relation for the
purpose Of negotiating with the share
holders of the company for their stock.
either exchanging Cananea consoli-
dated stock for it or in some way dis
posing of it for the protection Of the
holders and to remove one cause of fu-
ture litigation.
It was said in the Hotel Adams cor
ridors last night where the Cananea
men were assembled that they had just
had encouraging word from New York.
Messrs. Greene and Mitchell left last
night for the south 1t was observed
that two of the directors elected at the
White meeting. Messrs. Saxhang and
bort were identified with the other
faction and that their stock was rep
resented at the Wood meeting.

THE TAX PAYERS MEETING
Board of Trade Calls Oae for Next
Friday Night

a meeting of the executiv commit
tee of the board of trade was held last
night to take the initiative in the
matter of calling taxpayers meeting
at which a committee will be selected
for the purpose of making an estimate
on a public'water works system as re
quested by the council at the meeting
of last Saturday night. Major Evans
moved that the board issue a call.
There was a division in the committee
regarding the propriety of any action
by the board. Mr.. Heyman objected to
any action by the board. Mr.. Clark
moved that the matter be referred back
to the council to make the call, but
President Adams and Messrs. Talbot.
Doris and Hall urged that there could
be no improperly in a call by the
board, since there was 40 other or
ganizatiOn of taxpayers or representa-
tive citizens to take the first step.
They agreed that the boards connec-
ton with the meeting should end with
its assembling and it should be stated
that the board, as a body, was not
committed to any policy and should
not attempt to direct the deliberations
of the meeting. 1t was agreed that if
the meeting were attempted to be
called in any other way confusion
would likely result and the whole
thing would end in the accomplishment
of nothing. 1t was further urged that
the board had been organized in the
interest of Phoenix, and the subject Of
water works was certainly a matter of
interest
Major Evans motion was adopted
with n single dissenting vote.
Next Friday night was named as the
time of the meeting and the Patton
Grand opera house as the place.

EXAGGERATED STORIES
Governor Murphy says There All Is
Quiet Among the NavsjOs

Governor Murphy returned last night
from Flagstaff, where he went to in
vestigate the reports of disorder among
the Navajos. The sensational stories
sent out from the north and from
Phoenix We're not only greatly exag-
gerated, but many of the most serious
ones were without foundation. There
was never any danger of an uprising
on account of the bloody ARRAY at
Walnut canyon, last Saturday night. IN
which w. H. Montgomery and two In
dams were killed. Montgomerys BODY
was not mutilated, as had been re-
ported, nor was there any indications
that the Indians had returned to the
battlefield after the sheriff's posse had
left it.
Regarding the story that Fred Voltz
of Canyon Diablo had seen a large
party of Indians from the reservation
going toward the scene of the trouble.
Governor Murphy saw Voltz in Flag
staff yesterday and Voltz told him that
he had seen no Indians at all and was
not at Canyon Diablo at the time the
Indians were reported to have crossed.
The governor ascertained that every
thing was quiet on the reservation.
There is absolutely no trouble appre-
hended.

partially in favor of Arizona. \ day
or two ago a letter was received from
the editor of that paper saying that the
oranges were now nicely colored and
that having dissected and eaten them
he was prepared to give his testimony
that they We're as sweet as could be de-
sired.
About the same time Messrs. Barley
Bros. sent a sample box to a Cincin-
natl commission house and a very sim
liar answer was received. The fruit
was satisfactory in every respect. Those
samples referred to were not subjected
to any artificial process to force an
early ripening.
1t is a well known fact that in other
localities where great efforts are made
to get fruit into the market early or
anges are often picked weeks before
thy have matured and are ripened and
colored artificially. The result is that
they reach the market looking faire
well, but soft. stringy and to an ex-
tent. tasteless or sour. Arizona could
gain still another month by these meth

mending the purchase of the Linville
property on which an option was held

was decided to purchase this property
and the proper representatives of the
society were so instructed.
1t was reported that subscriptions
amounting to several hundred dollars
have already been pledged and a
finance committee was appointed to
continue the work of soliciting.

OF the currency shows that the total

sound of the racket and said to his CON
gregation:
Brothers and sisters, it seems that
they are playing baseball over at
Squan Creek on this holy day. Not
only that, but the hull population has
probably turned out to mob and muir

When the squire and the congrega-
ton had finished its hymn both sides
sat down. The preacher was awfully
upset, and the best he could do was
to preach a sermon about is min
utes long. There ought to hev bin
more singin', but there wasn't. He was
about to close with the "Doxology,"
but he looked up and saw that the Wild
der Scott had her jaw sot, and he
looked down and saw Deacon Spooner
with his tunin' fork all ready, and so
he calmly said:
MAY the Lord bless Squan Creek
and make it a good fshin' season.; and
now amen, and we'll all go home!"
The quire went all to pieces after
that day, and there was nobody left to
oppose congregational singin'; but the
town had been upset and couldn't
git yer it in a day. Even to this date,
which is over five years, if one of them
quire folks asks one of the congrega-
tional singers fur a chaw of terbacker,
he meets with a prompt refusal and is
told to go to grass IN top o. that.
