WELL.MERITED RECOGNITION

Some of the papers that come to TIE NEWS exchange table-partic- ularly those of Tucson and King man-complain that Pima and Mo- have counties have been given the cold shoulder by dispensers of the federal and territorial offices. The only recognition accorded Pima in the matter of patronage is one dis trict judge, while Mohave, one of the oldest counties in the territory, has not a single federal or terri torial official at which to point with pride.
 We'll, Coconino county has no complaint to make on that score. We've got our share of good things in the way of offices, due, unques- tionably, to the fact that the stan- dard of ability, and requirements necessary to fill any position of honor, is higher in this county than in any other in the territory.
 Arizona had been secured, from Vermilion Cliffs on the north, to Nogales in the south, by the repub. licans for a man to defeat Mark Smith for delegate to congress. In nine campaigns he was successful Last year. when a Coconino county man was pitted against him, the redoubtable Mark was compelled te step aside to make room for Ralpt Cameron.
 Coconino also claims George Young, the newly appointed secre' tary, as her own. Twas here his budding genius first was nursed here those qualities which, in other environment, might have lain dor mant, found fruition, and, with the energy he possesses, will lead te higher honors.
 John H. Page the retiring secre tary, is a Coconino man, and wher he leaves the office he has has st ably administered. will return tt this county and assist in the devel'

Organize a Fire Company

The new water company will in very short time have everything in readiness to furnish the city with an abundant supply of water, and the subject of organizing fire company Is one that should at once engage the attention of the people of Williams. Negotiations are in progress by the town trustees for the required fire fighting apparatus, and when the hose, carts and other paraphernalIa arrives, q force of we'll drilled men should be ready to receive 1t. This can easily be accomplished by at once organizing a department, choosing officers and perfecting details. Even with the present limited facilities, a few weeks practice would develop an efficient fire brigade. Officials of the Santa Fe have promised to CO., operate, and if some of our hustling and enthusiastic young men wilt take the matter in hand, a we'll equipped and well-tirilled fire com pany for Williams will be cer- tainty of the near future.

GASOLINE MOTOR CAR

A gasoline motor car, the first one in use on the Santa Fe, and capable of making 60 miles an hour, passed through Williams last Sunday afternoon en route to Los Angeles, where it will be used to carry passengers between that city and San Bernardino. A large crowd was at the depot to witness it's ar rival, and advantage was taken by many during the short time the car was here to make an inspection of it's interior.
 The main compartment, which occupies the rear half of the car, resembles the ordinary observation car. It contains twelve leather up- holstered seats, each of which will comfortably accommodate three persons, and large circular seat occupies the extreme end of the compartment. Eight large gas lights furnish the illumination. The interior of the car greatly resem- bles the interior of a ship, the win dows being round in shape and many in number, there being about twenty five. A small compartment in the cent.r of the car, used as smoking room, has seating capac- of twenty, while the front half is occupied by the engine. From the outside the car resembles a torpedo boat Entrance is effected from either side by door reached by several steps. The car, it is said, rides as easy as the finest Pullman.
 T. B. Jones, from the Topeka shops, was in charge of the motor, and the party on board the car comprised E. J. Gibson, superin tendent; E. E. Ball, division engi- neer; R. T. O'Rourke, agent at Winslow; G. H. Reyes, chief clerk to MT. Gibson, and Chas. Johnson. roadmaster.

Base Ball Matters

A meeting will be held tomorrow afternoon for the purpose of taking steps to organize a base ball club. There is material here in Williams for the formation of a team equal to any in the territory. It is to be hoped that the citizens of the town will give their aid and encourage ment to the boys in this matter, and that arrangements will be per- fected to put a club in the field for the coming season.
 The attendance at games could be calculated on to more than pay expenses. No trouble would be ex- perienced in arranging matches with clubs along the line, as there will be strong teams at Gallup. Winslow, Flagstaff and Ash Fork. Let the boys get move on and give our town brand of base ball dope that we can let out "holler" occasion ally, anyway.
 Early in May the baseball team of the Knights of Columbus of Globe will make tour of the terri tory, the schedule embracing more than half a dozen towns. Games will be played at Tucson, Bisbee, Douglas, Cananea, Phoenix, Pres colt and Flagstaff and the team will play the different towns along the route. The Knights have a strong aggregation, and Williams should have team in readiness to do battle with them when they reach this city.

Parasites who live off the earnings of abandoned women -more degraded creatures, by far, than their female associates-have become alarmed at the action taken Iaately by the city council in regard to their class and. fearing arrest, decided to vacate the town.

opment of it's mineral resources. MT. Page has valuable interests in the Grand Canyon district, and when his official duties end, the time aud energy devoted heretofore to the service of the territory will be employed in active prosecution of work on his mining properties.
 In addition to the above-named officials, this county has representa- tion on the board of equalization. sheep and sanitary commission, fish and game commission, and on the board of medical examiners. The honor conferred upon Judge Sloan in his appointment as governor is appreciated as compliment by our people, although he is not a resident of the county, but his long and faithful service on the bench of this judicial district gives us a sort of proprietary interest in him.
 As remarked above, Coconino has ho complaint to make in the mat ter of the distribution of political plums. but when it is remem- rbered that large percentage of the intelligence, culture and refinement of the territory is embraced within the limits of this county, it is not at all surprising that the thoughts of men naturally turn hitherward when there are important offices | to fill.
