Iemporary OpenIns ot Reseryes.

Some time since the stockmen of the northern part of Arizona petitioned the interior department, praying for the opening up of the San Francisco Mountains Forest Reserve, and the Black Mesa Forest Reserve, pending rain that was badly needed, that the stock might not die of starvation. Governor Brodie interested himself in the matter, and accordingly an order was made to that effect on July l5, leaving the discretionary power, how ever, in the hands of Captain F. $. Breen. who has the superintendent of the two reserves. Since the order has been made, copious showers have fallen all over Arizona, and it is question whether Captain Breen will now permit stock to graze on the re- serves, since the impending danger has passed. The San Francisco Noun tainS Reserve lies wholly within Co coninO county, while the Black Mesa Reserve stretches along the water sheds of the Salt and Gila rivers and lies within the counties of Geronimo, favapai, Navajo, Apache, Gila and Graham.

A tremendous effort is being made
by the paving contractors to whip the
city councilmen into line who refused
to vote for the Twelfth street paving
resolutions last Monday night.
Unless the contractors can persuade
either Councilman Kutz, Nellis, Howe
or Hughes to flop" from his position
on the West Twelfth pavement, that
piece of pavement will be vetoed by
the mayor. Without the vote of one
Of the above men, the measure can not
be carried over the mayors veto.
On the proposed East Twelfth pave
ment, it will be necessary for the con-
tractors to get two councilmen to
flop" The five who voted against it
Monday night were Kutz, Green, Nellis,
Rice and Hughes.
1t is q beautiful chance for some of
these above mentioned councilmen to
do some log rolling That is, they
might exchange their support for some
other councilman's support For in
stance. Mr. Howe is in favor of the
East Twelfth pavement and opposed
to the West Twelfth; Mr.. Green is in
favor of the West Twelfth and OPP
posed to the East Twelfth These two
gentlemen might, if they would, agree
to support each others measure.
One of the councilJnen upon whom
the contractors have been centering
to change lis vote, said today They
have been after US hot and heavy to-
day. I expect to stand by my original
vote and I do not believe that the

If those who are fighting for the

Twelfth find that they are unable to
get the necessary nine votes to carry
their projects over the mayors veto,
it is likely that the council viii at its
next meeting vote to reconsider the
paving resolutions, and knock out the
pavement altogether. Under the law

doing this. As it is the mayor can not
veto the proposed pavement until it

ordinance. 1t will not come up as an
ordinance until after the surveys.

praisement completed and the or

great deal of money, which the city
would have to pay. If the friends OF

all this expense. It would be the decent
thing for them to do.
Mayor Bergundthal said today in

meeting of the Great Bend city council

Southern railway recently obtained a
charter in this state capitalized at $25. 900
to construct railroad from this point
south to Medicine Lodge. making its head
quarters and general offices here.
This meeting being an open one, consid-
cradle interest was shown by property
owners. The proposed road wishes to run
its track on one of the principal residence
streets in the city, and this plan was met
by strong opposition from the property
owners along the surveyed route, who APP
peared before the city council stating
their objections which were the cause of
the franchise not being granted.

RACED FOR a BARRED.
Tracklayers Worked All Night for
Reward of Whisky.

The following story is from Dem
yer: A barrel of whisky was prom
ised if the construction men of the
Denver. Northwestern & Pacific rail-
road pulled the tracks of the line into
ROllinsville six hours ahead of the
sch edule Saturday. When the barrel
was emptied patriotic citizens threw
open their doors and 125 track layers
had more liquid reward. The cele-
bration was not quite so extensive
today, but the same brand of enthu-
siasm was gushing forth literally and
the Fourth of July will never see any
thing better. When the track was still
six miles away, a committee of citi-
zens went out to invite the workers to
a liquid feast when the road entered
the town limits. Their offer was ac-
cepted, and, in spite of protests from
the foreman, the track gang worked
"a hours at a stretch until they
reached the barrel.
