MONTHLY MEETING
 BOARD OF GOVERNORS
It Was Devoted to Johnson Grass, Answers to Senatorial Questions and Arrangements for Meeting the President.

The regular monthly meeting of the board of governors of the Water Users association, held yesterday, was. outside of routine matters. de- voted chiefly to discussion and &C., ton on three matters-the formula ton of replies to the questions asked by the senate committee on irriga- ton, the replies to be made when the committee visits Phoenix; the formal representation of the associa- ton on the occasion of the visit of the president, and the growing evil of Johnson grass.
 In respect to the senatorial ques- tions, yesterday was the date origi- nalIy set for the formulation of answers. to facilitate which the board some weeks ago sent circular let ter to each member of the associa- tion, requesting an expression of his views. Since that time the visit of the committee to Phoenix has been postponed to some time in Novem- Der. Moreover, while there have been quite a number of responses to the, circular letter. by individual members of the association. the num- pNA iiVSs 7Dtth ec dS CA pected, not a sufficient number, in fact, to- express the views of the entire association. The board, there fore. decided yesterday to alter it's plan of action little and appoint a committee of three to have hear ings with the farmers in all the districts, either private or public. as the committee deems best, and from information thus gathered to formu- late a series of answers to the ques- tions, to be presented to the board at it's November meeting. for ratifi- cation or amendment. as it sees fit The committee named is John P Orme, Joseph Cope and Judge J. H. Kibbey.
 The question of the Water Users association being represented official ly on the occasion of the visit of seemed to be the sense of all that in view of the reclamation project being one of the principal things the president will be interested in here. the association should be officially represented by some sort of a com mittee. A motion carried that a of five should be appoint ed for that office. after which it was recalled that several members of the board are already on other commit tees representing the city. It was then decided that all the members of the board not on the general com mittee of arrangements appointed by the mayor, should serve as a special committee from the board of gov ernors. A motion was also made suggesting to the chairman of the council. l.. J. Rice, that he appoint a similar committee to act in con-

junction. This motion was made as the council will probably have no meeting before that time. and the chairman would probably not like to act on his own initiative alone
 The matter of Johnson grass. the farmers dearest enemy. was brought before the board by J. P. Orme. It is unfortunately true that this nox- ious plant spreads easily in an irri- gated country. by the seed being carried through canals and laterals. and one careless farmer suffering from the pest may make a deal of trouble for his neighbors. It was suggested that the fight against the spread of Johnson grass might be effectively carried on by seeing that the canals and laterals are cleaned two or three times a year. or suf- ficiently often to keep the grass on the banks from going to seed. In this way it's spread could be prevent ed and eventually it may be eradi- cated from places where it now has a foothold. It was decided to ap- point a committee of three to take up the matter with the reclamation service and see what measures can be practically employed. The com mittee named is composed of Messrs. J. P Orme. Joseph Cope and W. w Dobson. all of whom have made themselves competent to serve by long years of warfare against John- son grass. They know it's tricks and peculiarities. and its weak points. if it has any.

THE S|MMs ESTATE
 TO THE FORE AGAIN
HEIRS MOVE AGAINST THE Ap-
 MiNIsTRAToR.
An Order From the Probate Court to Show Cause to Be Heard
 on Friday.

That there is Simms estate has again been brought back to the public mind. The local memory of it has just been logged by a motion filed in pro- bate by Paul Ingles acting for E. E. Sanford of California, one of the heirs asking for the removal of administra- tor J. w. Crenshaw on the ground of misconduct and mismanagement in ap- pealing from an order of the district court in favor of the estate. Judge Phillips issued an order of suspension and an order to the administrator to show cause. The matter will be heard next Friday.
 The Simms estate has been in the probate court for the last twelve years and four or five years ago nearly everybody interested in it believed that the estate was all gone. Even the heirs manifested very little interest in it from the beginning. The will of the late Col. J. T. Simms named his son Charles J. Simms and his son-in law. Edward Brosius joint administrators of the estate. Neither lived in the ter ritory. nor did either of them ever come here to qualify.
 Some years Arthur J. Edwards act ing for the Hayden estate brought suit against the Simms estate to recover on a note for s10.000 given by Col. Simms several years before. There was no resistance of the suit and in due time judgment was rendered for the amount of the note. It was remarked by attorneys at the time that there was an irregularity in the proceedings in that the service was defective. How ever, it was no body's business and beside. it was not believed that any judgment could be of any value.
 Sometime later the judgment was of fered at public auction and was brought by W. T. Smith. for. it is said. the sum of s25 and not long after that it was learned that there was really Simms estate after all. It consisted of a strip of ground fifty feet wide running the entire length of Portland Place on the north side of it and a strip of greater width running along the west side of Westmoreland Place.
 It was now necessary to have an active administrator and as Simms and Brosius had not yet appeared MT. Smith petitioned for their removal and the petition was granted Captain Crenshaw was then appointed.
 With the permission of the probate court the administrator sold a part of of the newly discovered estate. It was bought by MT. smith for s3.000 and the sale was confirmed. Then the admin istrator moved for permission to apply the purchase price to part payment of the assigned Hayden judgment Though, no objection had been raised to this time by any body, the court hesitated at this step but the permission was subsequently given.
 Application was then made to sell the rest of the estate but before that sale could be effected, or at least before it could be consummated. several Phoenix attorneys came to the front with ob- jections. The administrator in all this had been proceeding according to the
