AN APPALLING DISASTER

The earthquake that practically wiped out of existence many towns of Southern Italy last Monday, is one of the most frightful disasters in the history of the world. Latest reports estimate the number oi lives lost at not less than 15O,OOO while the list of deaths may be greater.
 In Messina, of the 9O,O0O popu- lation, it is believed that fully TO- 900 perished. In Reggie, 40 GOO were killed. Ship loads of fugitives have arrived at Naples and other Italian ports. Many are injured and all destitute.
 The forces that overwhelmed the cities also destroyed the means of sustenancc, and the suffering of those who escaped with their lives is extreme. There is little food and
  less water in the stricken towns. The distress has been increased by an icy wind that followed the dis aster. Fire added to the horrors Tn Messina troops and sailors were compelled to shoot down robbers who persisted in footing. The local prison at Monteoleone collapsed and all the convicts. 1900 in num- Der, were crushed to death.
 Anxiety is felt at Washington as to the fate of many Americas who were known to be in the earthquake zone. At this season of the year many American tourists visit the southern part of Italy and it is feared that the disaster may have overtaken some of them.
 Arthur S. Cheney, American con. sul at Messina. and his wife, died under the debris of the consulate

WEDDING BELLS

TIE NEWS is in receipt of cards announcing the marriage of Mir. Charles Carroll Hutchinson and Mrs. Ella St. Clair The ceremony took place at Caldwell, Idaho. on December 23.
 The bride, who is a sister to Mrs. c. O Robinson of Flagstaff. has made occasional visits with rela lives in Coconino county, and has formed many acquaintances among our people. She is highly educated and endowed with 8 grace of person and charm of manner that is char acteristic of the best in America n womanhood.
 Charles Hutchinson is one of the the we'll known and most popular citizens of Coconino county. And deservedly so. He possesses all the attributes that combine to make perfect gentleman-truth, hon. esty, courage and generosity. He has large interests in Northern Ari- zona, being one of the territory's leading sheep men.
 MT. and Mrs. Hutchinson will return to Arizona about the 18th of January and will spend the win ter in Phoenix.
 THE NEWS joins with the many friends of the newly. welded couple in wishing them health, happiness and prosperity as they journey down life's pathway.

The Story of SaIazar

Dolores Salazar, who has in the past been content to follow the humble occupation of a Coconino county sheep herder. branched out. on arriving in Phoenix recently, as Napoleon Of finance on a limited scale. Becoming enamored of the charms of Mrs. Dora Wilson of the capital city, a somewhat ex- travagant female, Salazar began to cast about him for means to gratify her expensive tastes He had worked for Beasley Bros. of Flag staff and being familiar with the names of merchants of that place, issued checks on Rabbit Bros., claiming he had a large balance with that firm. He succeeded in raising over $500 from confiding Phoenix business men on worth less paper. Salazar is now in jail and his chances for doing a stunt in the penitentiary are exceedingly favorable.

The New County Officials

The men who will administer the affairs of Coconino county for the next two years are, with three ex- captions, the same officials who, during the past two years, have held down positions in the court house. The three new men who have joined the official family are District Attorney Doe and Super visors Dickinson and Yaeger The fact that all the county officials elected in 1906, and who submitted their claims to the people in 1908 were reelected. is pretty conclusive evidence that their services are ap- preciated.
 The new district attorney is a man of fine legal attachments. He is an old resident of the county, has always enjoyed large practice, and it is safe to say that Mir. Doe will ably fill.the office to which he has been elected.
 The newly installed supervisors Messrs. Dickinson and Yaeger, arc large property holders and thor ough business men. With Chair man Gregg as the other member of the board, it is confidently ex- pected that the affairs of Coconino will be conducted in a manner tha, will rebound to the advancement and prosperity of the county.

THE COMING YEAR.

With the advent of the new year it is confidently hoped and believed that the country will enter upon another era of prosperity. The clouds of depression are lifting slowly but surely. The hum of in- dustry, soon to break into roar, is again heard Tn the land. Busi- ness in almost every line is i'm proving. In the mining world all indications point to a most pros porous year. Arizona for the past two years has led all other states in copper production; this year it can safely be predicted that the output will be greatly increased, and the gold production doubled.
 In Geronimo county the future is bright with promise. The stock in- dustry is in prosperous condition, the mines, which through misman agement principally, suspended op- erations, will again resume work The Humboldt smelter, which is soon to be blown in, will be the signal for the starting up of the mines at Anita, giving employment to large number of men. Capital is looking toward the asbestos mines, said to be the most exten- sive, and the product the finest, of any similar mines in the world These properties are tributary to Williams, and their development would add greatly to the business prosperity not only of this imme- diate section, but to that of the en. tire territory.
 Fully believing that the end oi 1909 will see our most sanguine hopes of prosperity realized, THE NEWS wishes its readers a pleasant and profitable new year.

w. P. Bullock, a consulting en- gineer from Kansas City, Mo was an arrival in Williams this week. Thursday he called upon the city councilmen. and also upon the rep resentatives of the Grand Canyon Electric Light x Power company advocating the municipal owner ship of the electric lighting and water plants of Williams.
 Being a promoter of municipal ownership of public utilities of many years experience, MT. Bull locks argument was very con- vincing. He intended to hold a mass meeting tonight, but owing to the fact that the city tax rolls have not been made up for 1909, the meeting was postponed to some future time, ,whea-le#ill again visit the fityseat submieaTdefnite propdsI1i5jtie6p s1ij g i6r: ths atize9pls 9l {o le act

A negro named Jim Walker, who had recently served short sen- tence in the county jail at Flag staff, was so we'll pleased with the hospitality of Sheriff Francis that he dicided to return to that insti- tuition for the winter. Arriving in Williams Monday evening, the ne- gro proceeded to break into freight car loadel with mercha andise. He stole box of candy and other articles and was endeavoring to dispose of them when arrested by Marshal Patterson. He was tried before Judge Langin and bound Over to appear before the next grand jury in the sum of $500.

THE CASE OF THE CALVES

The all-a bsorbing topic of con- versation in Williams this week was the trial of the Territorial San itary Board against Minor Owen and Emmett James Readers of THE NEWS have been kept informed of the progress of the case since Cattle Inspector Holden seized 27 calves bearing the brands of Owen and James, but which the inspector claimed were illegally in their pos session. The next episode in the affair was the filing of a replevin bond by Owen and James and the recovery of the stock. Inspector Holden then furnished a re-delivery bond in the sum of 5000 and again obtained possession of the calves. This was the status of af- fairs up to this week.
 On Monday, the day appointed for the hearing. Attorney General Clark and J. E. Russell, of Pres colt, representing the Territory, reached Williams, and the contest for possession of the "dobies" be- gan. Attorney X. N. Sleeves ap, peared as counsel for Owen and James. Judge Langin's court was crowded. many from adjacent towns and ranches being in attend ance as witnesses or spectators, while several ladies graced the oc- casion with their presence.
 The attorneys for the Territorial Sanitary Board contended, Attor- ney General Clark making the ar gument, that the ruling made by Judge Langin in the Kay case should be followed in the present one-that is, that the stock must be sold and the money realized from such sale turned over to the territory MT Sleeves denied that there was any similarity between the two cases and demanded a jury trial. This move was opposed by counsel for the territory, but the judge decided that the defendants were entitled to that privilege.
 Then the work of summoning twelve good men and true to try the case was commenced. The highways and byways and places where men most do congregate were called on to furnish the necessary quota; but all to no avail. A dozen men could not be found who were qualified to sit as jurors, most of those summoned stating that they had formed an opinion which it would be difficult for any ordinary evidence to change.
 Then, Tn despair, Judge Langin, who undoubtedly felt that the wor- ries and troubles incident to the trial of the case were a greater burden than should be imposed upon the shoulders of any one man, turned the affair over to his suc- cessor MT. M. J. Rounseville, by appointing Tuesday, January 5, as the date for the next hearing.
 Since the above was in type, MT. Rounseville was called to his wife's bedside in Phoenix and it is hardly probable that he will return and qualify by the day appointed for the trial. In that event Judge Langin will hold over, according to the statutes, until MT. Rounse- ville's return, but he will hardly tackle the calf case again, as he claims it is not within his jurisdic- tion, the amount involved being nnore than SS0O

Home Rule for ireland.

After the lapse of centuries Ireland
seems about to have home rule. If
Ireland's people prove as adept in poll
tics at home as they have in the United
States, it should not take them long to
get upon their feet, politically, at least.
But naturally conditions are different.
for there are Irish and Irish. The
country has been no doubt over-ruled
and its poor people many of them are
uneducated. This may leave them tenn
porarily so great prey to the politi-
cal elements as to leave them in doubt
as to any benefits which change to
home rule should bring.
In America the Irish citizen is ac
cepted as an element in politics, where
his enthusiasm and impetuosity are tell
ing factors in his party, but there is
always string to him, check or
safety-guage, as there must be to all
politicians and political factors. Their
work is mapped out, and beyond GER
tain lines they are admonished not to
go, lest more harm than benefit re-
suits.
The political game, like all others,
must be learned by trial lessons, and
Ireland, under home rule, will yet be
compelled to undergo the hard expert
ence of the political school of practice.

Says Zelaya Is Fiend Incarnate.

Senator Raynor has held up Zelaya
before Congress as all that is despica-
ble-tyrant, murderer, brute in public
and private life, demanding his arrest
and punishment.
Zelaya is now said to be starving
hundreds of people to death in chains,
refusing interference from cnurcn or
public.
1t is pleasure to know thatl indica-
tions are good for him to very soon get
what is coming to him. 1t is also graf
flying to see our own nation among the
first of the civilized ones to interfere.
The murder of our own citizens was,
however, ample cause for making a
start.

1.-THE Prince of Peace. "

All the old troublesome questions of
the origin aid destination of the Cali
lee Carpenter have passed, says a
writer in Collier s. Ali the mediaeval
worriment in discriminating between
human and divine has gone, all the
puzzled inquiry into the miraculous. No
longer is mankind stirred over the nom
essential. Theories of him fade away,
dogmas of his nature lose their charm.
His gentleness has conquered. His in
tiuence continues and widens. Slowly
Frightening, the CLEAN that touched
him spreads through the world. His
spirit moves on the face of civilization,
and makes it kindlier every generation.
The touch of his hand is on the grief
stricken. Nurse, physician, and nun
are the messengers of his teaching.
The vestal fires burned out, but never
the fires OF his spirit. which answer
each other from mountain-top to noun
tain-top across the continents. And
deep In the heart of the people they
make family life sweeter and ease the
bitterness of failure and Ignorance and
all life's incompleteness. That wonoer-
working personality was never SO po-
tent as today so insistent and tenderiy
sure Under thousand forms, creeds
and names, men serve him. And how
ever far we go in the conquest of
nature, Identifying the north pole,
climbing the sky, prying open electrical
forces, mapping out the subliminal, di-
minishing sin, disease, war, poverty,
always in the ADVANCE will
be that gracious figure of the Sinless
One, who showed Love as the rule of
life. One Perfect Man ardent and
gentle the race will never tire of him.
