Never before in the history of the

for relief as was stirred up in the

Attorney General Bryan has an
nounced himself as being opposed to
the calling of constitutional conyen-
ton, which question will be submit
ted to the voters of the State in the
fall Of 1907. A constitutional con
vention, he says, could proclaim a
new constitution without submitting
1t to the vote of the people for ratif
cation, and there is no telling what
wrongs might be forced upon the
people in this way. 1t would be i'm
possible to tell what kind of delegates
would constitute the convention or
what paly or faction would be in
control and Mr.. Bryan thinks the
safest thing for the people Of the
State will be to vote down the pro-
posed call and prevent the conven-
ton from meeting.

Rev. Father Cyp. Vabre, of this parish, has a we'll written article in the June Pioneer. on the great Yucca forest, between Yucca and Bill Williams Fork. This forest is one of the most remarkable in Ari- zona, extending over an area of 600 square miles. In March one year ago the forest was mass of bloom and later bore so much fruit that the trees broke down under its weight. This fruit is a sugary mass which the Indians in years gone by used to press into cakes and lay away for winter use. A number of years ago representatives of English paper mills examined the forest with the view of putting in a pulp mill and using the wood in making paper pulp. but they gave it up on account of the lack of water in that locality. -Kingman Miner.
