WOMEN WANT LIGHT

Woman, ever since the beginning
 of the world, has been a help meet
 to the man. more or less. But. not
 until in the recent years has it been
 discovered that the feminine sense
 frequently out wits the man in
 seeing, both good and bad points
 in business, politics, town improv-
 ment, etc. Whenever a husband
 takes his wife in partnership in his
 business he is bound to succeed no matter what his business, trade or
 profession may be. This fact has been acknowledged by the worlds most successful men from time to time. That a woman has been instrumental in the city beautiful movement and accomplished won- ders from coast to coast in this land of the free and brave, is a. fact. we'll known to those who read or travel.
 That the good women of Will. Jams are not in the rear seat, when 1t comes to doing things for the city, has been proven to the con- plete satlsfa ction of those of the mankind who observe and appre, ciate. It was the fault of man that the street lights were cut out, but 1t was the keen sense of the woman to see that it is a "black eye" for a city of thIs size to dwell in dark ness. The women are not at all afraid to express their dissatisfac- ton of the authorities, who were bold enough to disgrace the city by cutting out the street lights. To demonstrate their dissatisfa ction, he good women. gathered all the lanterns and torches they could ind in town, and Monday evening marched the principal streets of he city. The women, it is under
 tood, will continue their protest lntil the lights are turned on. This paper admires the grit of these vomen, and opines that there will 'e light unless the authorities, who made the sad blunder, wish to lose heir popularity with the women. l.

MORE ABOUT MURDER MYSTERY

Among the latest stories regard
 ing the Swartz murder mystery is
 that the party who suggested to
 Sheriff Francis, last fall, that E. r.
 Swartz had been murdered, is Ex-
 territorial Ranger William A. Old.
 From a relia ble source THE NEWS has been informed that Old had furnished Francis with descriptive map of the exact location of the murdered mans shallow grave At the time Francis paid little or no attention to Old. From some cause or another several months later, or about three weeks before the body of Swartz was found by the Mexican sheep herder, Francis and his chief deputy, Thomas Pull liam, came to this city with the intention of trying to locate the grave according to the diagram in Francis possession. But on the day mentioned severe storm came up and Francis and Pulliam returned to the county seat with out trying to locate the grave on that day nor did they return to search for it until the body was found by the Mexican.
 The party who informed this paper as above was a close friend of Wood, who together with Neill, left for parts unknown Immediately Liter Swartz's body was found. He | lso stated that letters passed be- tween Wood and Old every few lays until Wood disappeared.
 Rangers Old and Wood were from here to Winslow ,bout the last of Septem Der, and | little later Wood was transferred pack to Williams. After the ran- ger law was abolished Old left Vinslow and for awhile stopped at Needles, from where he went to

an officer, relating to the murder of E. P. Swartz of Williams. This article says that made remark 10 Sheriff John Francis that if he would induce the governor to offer $500 reward I would find Swartz's body. 1 want to say that this as- sertion is 8 vile, malicious and wilful falsehood, as l never talked to Francis only in a casual way about the disappearance of Swartz. That was during the September term of court. I told Francis I be- lieved that Swartz had been mur- dered, as I had heard nearly all the store clerks and several railroad employees express very bitter feel ings against Swartz as a spotter on them and I knew the community disliked him very much. These were the reasons that caused me to believe Swartz had been murdered. Francis thought differently. so the matter was dropped by us and from that day to this we have nev- CT talked of the matter in any way The statements in the Gazette of May IA is false in toto, manufac. tured by some one for the sole purpose of injuring me.
 "Thanking you for the space to correct the slanderous article.

MIR. DRUM WRITES

MT. L. s. Drum, of the Grand Canyon hotel, hands THE NEWS the following with request to publish:
 II think that great deal that is not true has been printed concern ing R. s. Neill, who is my stepson. Of course he is accused of terrible crime but the accusation is not proof. I see from your paper that our Sheriff Francis is a good single handed worker. Knowing this mur- der or killing occurred sometime ago, also knowing parties were sus- poets. why did he not then arrest them? By so doing he would have saved the county much expense and also saved much trouble for Reuben, his mother and myself"

MISS PROSPERITY IS SMILING

Last Monday morning for the
 first time in months the whistle of the big saw. mill of the Saginaw and Manistee Lumber Company sounded a signal that it is time to go to work. IL was a familiar and joyful sound to those who have awaited, faithfully. for work to open up in the mill all these months.
 The daily capacity of the mill has been increased by 3O,OOO feet per day and as result of this a larger number of men is employed now than. before the shut down. The daily capacity now is about 160,000 feet per day and the man. agement says that it now has tim- Der enough cut to keep the mill in operation every day until April 1 of next year.
 All the idle men have gone to work and signs of prosperity are in evidence in every nook and corner of the city. The laboring man car rying full dinner pail and hap oily .whistling a tune in answer to the joyous sound of the mill whistle; the smile that never wears out of the groceryman as he fills the daily order of the busy lumber. man, and the contented look of the housewife as she is busily repairing a dainty hot meal, good enough for the kings, for her husba nd's evening meal is sight worthy of note, and something to which all Williams can point with pride.

EI-SuLTbN TRIES
TO MAKE ESCAPE
By CLEVER TRICK

BELGRADE. Servia, Oct. sl5.-It
- reported here that the young
Turk administration following the
attempt OF the deposed sultan, Alb
dul Hamid, to escape from his villa
at Salonika yesterday, has insti-
tuted a searching investigation
which it believes will show that the
attempt was backed by the reac-
tionary element.
The administration believes that
If the reactionaries could liberate
Abdul. the pacifying of the country,
whic hthe young Turks are finding
difficult as it is, would be almost
impossible.
Abdul Hamid is closely guarded
today, and the Salonika authorities
are putting the workman, in whose
clothing the sultan tried to leave
the villa, through rigid examina-
ton. The man maintains that
Abdul Hamid stole his clothes after
forcing him to take bath. He
says Abdul insisted that he could
not work on the repairs he had been
called to make i'm the sultan's pres.
ence, unless he bathed.
