Announcement.

Having this week purchased
the plant and good will of The
NAIL from Mr.. G.. M. Funston,
we desire to say a few words to
the res ders in regard to the
policy of the paper in the future.
Politically. we have decided
to line up on the Democratic
side of the fence aud expect to
support the Territorial and
County tickets in the coming
election. However, we do not
intend publishing a rabid parti-
san paper. and at all times we
shall be tair and square with
those that differ from US politi-
cally. If we do not stick to
that rule you are at liberty to
call us down.
And as to Joint statehood, we
are going to fight that until the
last ditch is reached and the
victory is won for Arizona.
We expect to do our very best
to issue a newsy paper and have
ordered more printing material
to work with, and in a few
weeks an excellent job printing
department will be installed.
1t shall be our earnest desire
to help build up Navajo County
and Winslow in particular.
This county has great future
looming up before it. Its
strides in development are per-
ceptible every day.
Now, just word about our
self, or the editorial 1--WE, We
have made our home in North
ern Arizona for the past nine
vears-fve of which have been
devoted to newspaper work.

She rose and stood before him, the

hard, cruel things" she moaned.
Hard and cruel repeated her hus-

She thought he retired to her con

What made me do 1t? You will
only despise and hate me the more If
I tell you she replied.
Frankly speaking, Hildred, nothing
hat you can say to me will make the
matter worse, but it may certainly be
made better. Tell me the plain truth"
Yes, l will tell YOU" she replied.

at an end between US"

emphasis; with my consent. you shall

asked. sadly.

"No-and you may be thankful for

may speak quite frankly-no one knows
anything about it except myself. Now
tell me-"
What have l to tell you?" she said.

cursed money was all you wanted
that you would never like me. And I
fancied she would pity you, in that soft,
caressing voice of hers-pity you for be-

love. I believed that you would tell
her that 1 was jealous of her, that then
both of you would laugh at me-"
The passion of her words had dead
ened all sense of shame. She had for

prompted her to do, and remembered
only her great, bitter wrongs. The earl

GERS and manufacturers. It is the first
marine gas engine which ms at slow
speed, with a development of high power,
at a fuel consumption Of seven-tenths Of

CINE develops 300 horsepower, at 800 rev

but none of them were of her. She did
not want to listen to their conversa-
ton; she only wished to prevent the
story Of her marriage from being told.
| Sometimes the low, musical laughter OF
| Lady Hamilton reached her, and then
the rich ring of her husbands voice
would sound cheerily in the gathering
gloom and all the time she, his wife,
was slowly threading her IA after
him like the shadow of fate.
There had not been one Word Of her
yet-tbe conversation had all been
about people they had known years be-

Some of the crimson glow fell on the
white dress and on the silken veil.
She saw Lady Hamilton hold out her
little white hand n cry, gleefully:
Look. Lord Caraven-my hand is
dyed red"
They had not spoken Of her. The
red sun was fast descending.
That is what l wish you to see,'
said the earl. The moment in which
the sun seems to touch the water a red

moment it is quite dark"
They watched it in silence, while the

said Lord Caraven; and his wife re-
membered that the long avenu of trees
extended to the very gate. She could
therefore, walk almost side by side
with them, yet quite unseen.
They had not mentioned her name.
Could she have been wrong in her sus-
picion? Had she mistaken her hus-
bands words?
II cannot bear it," she thought.
The next moment there was the
sound of a shot-something seemed to
rattle through the alder branches
there was a loud cry, a startled ex-
clamation.
There are poachers In the wood"

A New AID to the bind.

DR.. George NJ. Gould, the Philadelphia
Eye specialist, writing to the New York
Science of the recently improved Rouls-
zen device for the reproduction of speech,
Know as the te~legaphone, suggests that
this be employed to take the place of the
cumbersome, expensive, slow and weary
ing embossed letters n points through
which books are now made available to
the blind. In this way a book could be
read to the sightless or to the invalid
while the patient lies in bed, and lectures,
concerts, Rotations, ETC., may be had at
will. Letters may be dictated or spoken
upon the thin sheets Of steel, and these,
after being sent by mail to a distant
friend, will reproduce the voice of the
sender exactly as to infection, pitch and
emphasis. The record may be used again
and again.

there discovered lands hitherto un-

Officers of the revenue cutter service
were able to explore on July 20 the new
volcanic island in the Bogoslof group Of
the Boring sea, although it was still very
hot from the action of the volcano which
threw it up ten days prior to that. A
great column of smoke and steam contin-
ued to rise over this newborn isle. At

INDIAN FIRST TO lRRlGATE.
American Desert Watered by Canal
When Columbus Came Over.

American Desert Watered by Canals
When Came Over.
American irrigation was old when
Rome was in the glory Of it's youth.
The ancient aqueducts and subterran-
can canals of South America, extend
ing for thousands Of miles, once sup
piled great cities and irrigated i'm
mense areas. Centuries before the ven
turous Norsemen landed upon the bleak
and inhospitable shores Of New Eng
land a large population dwelt in the
hot valleys Of the far southwest. From
the solid rock, with primitive tools Of
blocks for many chambered palaces,
which they erected in the desert or on
the limestone lodges of deep river can
yons.
These voiceless ruins, older than the
memory of many centuries, tell the
story of a thrifty, home loving and
semi-cnltured people. concerning whose
fate history brings US no word.
In these palaces and in many miles of
canals we may almost read the story
Of another Egypt-a people toiling UNI
der the burning SUI Of the desert,
YEARLY and painfully executing the
commands of an American Pharaoh.
Coming down to a period less remote
and only slightly less interesting is
the first page of modern American his
tory. Here IN the sixteenth century
Coronado. the first great American ex-
plorer, swept up the Rio Grande val
ley and %journeyed as far north as Kan
sas. In New Mexico he found a pas
toral race dwelling In pueblos and prac-
| ticing the gentle art Of irrigation as
had their fO%refathers, perhaps as far
back as In the days of Abraham. Ger
tainly their agricultural methods were
In no wise different from those which
prevailed in the days OF b prophets.
Even unto this day their grain is gath
cred In great willow baskets, is thrash
ed by the trampling OF sheep and goats
and winnowed by the winds. Fields
which were cultivated three centuries
ago are still producing crops each year.
Some OF these thoughts came to tho
government engineers as they ran their
lines OF levels IN the valley Of Salt riv-
er in Arizona, and it seemed to them
a proper task for the greatest nation on
earth to restore once more the oases Of
verdure which the desert had long ago
obliterated.
During the last quarter Of a century
a c~rop-producing area OF 100000
acres, or another state Of Massachu-
sets. has been wrested from the desert.
Irrigation canals long enough to span
the earth twice and representing an
outlay Of S%9O,OOO.OOO have been built.
Every year this area returns a harvest
valued at more than $15O,OOO,OOO and
100000 people dwell In prosperity and
contentment where only a short time
ago the wilderness reigned.
Uncle Sam is today the largest own
err of the great American desert, no
doubt because 1t was not considered
worth stealing. For many years the
sentiment has been growing that the
government should make habitable this
vast empire which is so great poten-
| TALLY.
