NOT ORv|LLE OR WILBUR
 BUT WRONG MR. WRIGHT
Rumor That Ore of the Wright Broth CTS Was in Phoenix Is
 Not Verified.

There was considerable atmospheric disturbance at aviation headquar tcrs yesterday. when q young man entered and announced authoritatively that one of the Wright brothers-"the" Wright brothers-was actually in Phoenix. Later information would tend to show that the man referred to was the wrong Mir. Wright.
 Anyway, the rumor started at Cen ter and Adams streets late in the af- tcrnoon. Specifically, it was in the Santa Fc offices. A commercial gen tleman who said he knew most of the aviators of the country, and was chummy with the Wright boys. an nounced that he had just ridden down from Ash Fork with Wright. and that the latter got off at Phoenix, pre- sumably to watch the progress of the aviation meet. to take notes on the climate. and also to see that none of his patents were infringed on. w. $. Goldsworthy could not quite remcm Der the man that knew the Wright brothers. but he thought it was some thing like Wurzburg. w l.. Carver said he thought the mans name was BudWeiser.

VAN HORN AGAIN
 COMES TO THE FRONT
The Man Who Posed as Proprietor of Dolls Saloon Is Now Implicated
 In the Gold Hotel Robbery.

For thc third time within the week C. M Van Horn. an elderly, prosper ous- looking man. has attained notori- cty by his actions. He first stepped before the footlights by representing himself as the proprietor of Dolls sa- loon, and conducted it until the pro- prietor learned of the affair. Then he ate dinner at the depot restaurant and tried to hypnotize the proprietor into imagining he had paid for it. Yesterday he was identified by Henry Lawson as one of the men who had stolen liquor from the Gold hotel.
 Lawson and Fred Bryan were ar rested by the night police and charged with the crime of breaking into the hotel and stealing numerous bottles Of whisky. Three bottles of it were given to Loretta Garcia. woman friend of Lawson's. The girl said she saw Lawson in company with an cid erly man with grey hair. She was brought to the police station. and Van Horn. who happened to have been ar- rested on an intoXication charge. was brought before her. She failed to identify him as the man she saw with Lawson.
 Lawson's confession. however. i'm plicates Van Horn.
 When pressed by the marshal, he admitted the theft. or burglary. He said:
 Sunday afternoon stoop-shOul dered old man came to me and asked where he could get a drink. We went to the Gold hotel and tried the back door. We got in and took several bot ties of whisky. Later we came back and took lot more-perhaps twenty bottles-and hid them in Walkers stables. Afterward I went to the sta bles and removed the stuff without letting the old man know. ! distribu ted it around and gave it to my friends"
 Van Horn was then brought in and Lawson identified him as the man who asked him for a drink. and who helped to rob the Gold hotel
 Lawson. Van Horn and Bryan were taken to the county jail yesterday af- ternoon and will have to face felony charges

CHIEF JEFF GATHERS
 HIS APACHE HOSTS
The Indians From Mcdowell Began
 Pouring in Last Night.

Chief Jeff, as he is known among the Mcdowell Apaches. but called in civilization Deputy Sheriff Jeff Adams. returned yesterday morning from marshaling his warriors. who began arriving last night with their women. children and dogs. More of them were expected to arrive throughout the night. and the rear guard of the blood thirsty band will be here this morn ing
 The carly corners were bivouackcd about the court house last night. un- der the windows of the big chief.
 Chief Jeff carried the fiery cross among them on Saturday night and when they asked when they were to rally he held up one finger; that Is, m one day they must bc in Phoenix. The sub-c chiefs shook their heads and held up two fingers. saying, "man-taka- nuther.' an Indian adaptation Of the Spanish meaning our horses are no fat" and consequently were not able to make the journey so quickly. Chief Jeff glanced over the equine array of Skl1l anu DOiltS anu ifH'ht'N Ds hpA' ing up two fingers. That will bring the man taka -nuther" horses here to- day
 There was one Indian in particular whom the Big Chief wished to see. and he asked Big Mike. the principal of the sub-c chiefs. where he had gone. Big Mikes hearing is defective. and he made known his disability to the Big Chief by sticking a finger into each ear. shutting his eyes and yell ing. ''I no see him
 The Indians are wanted as witnesses at the preliminary examination Of Carl Williams, the educated Apache. who is to appear before Justice John stone today on the charge of having committed an outrageous assault upon his little 9-year-old orphaned niece.
 The deputy sheriff found the Indians divided into two camps on that issue. Carl Williams has some friends in the tribe who believe that he is not guilty, but the preponderant opinion is against him. He is not very well liked amoug the Indians anyhow. for ever since he has returned from Car lisle with the polished manners of the east he has seemed to them of an- other tribe

THE ALARMING GROWTH
 or THE OSBORN SCHOOL
TO BE CONSIDERED AT MEETING
 NEXT MONDAY NIGHT.
Also a Proposition for Bond Issue to
 Core With the Development.

An important school meeting of the Osborn district has been called for next Friday night, at which it is de sired that all patrons of the school and all taxpayers of the district be present. The meeting is to be held for the discussion of q proposed bond issue for the purpose of making ad ditions to the school house and to re- ceive the recommendations of the board of trustees on that subject.
 The discussion. or the business fea ture of the meeting. will be preceded by a thirty-minutc program, consist ing of songs and recitations by the younger pupils of the school. The la dies of the district; that is. those who are interested in the school as either taxpayers or patrons, are requested to attend the meeting.
 Notwithstanding the additions and improvements which have recently been made, the school is now occu- pied to its fullest capacity and beyond it. Every seat is filled, and yesterday il became necessary to send to town for seven more seats. So congcsted has the school become that there are only two rooms in which the extra seats could be placed.
 The school now has five grade teachers. a manual training teacher. and a superintendent of drawing. It is conceded that next year two more grade teachers will have to be added.
 The growth Of the Osborn district in the last year has been unexpected and even phenomenal. and it promises to break the record next year, with the new additions and subdivisions which are being laid out there. It is rapidly becoming suburb of Phoenix. and it is recognized that the time is coming when the district will become part of the city. and its excellent schools unit of the Phoenix school system.
 While the present plans contemplate only the making of more room in the school by a symmetrical enlargement of the building. the residents of the district are looking forward to tce time when the present building shall be used only as a grammar school. and when there will he lower grade schools established in both the eastern and western ends of the district
 It is not very long since the trustees of that district opposed the efforts of residents of the southern part of it. to have themselves set off into the Phoe nix district. It is different now. con nection with the Phoenix schools is encouraged
 The osborn school house was built seventeen years ago; that is. it was remodeled into two-story structure that long ago, but for a long time the second story was not occupied. and there was some criticism of the trustees for having looked so far into the future. IL is now agreed that they had a clearer vision than their neigh bOrs. and that even they could not foresee fully the development which q few years would bring. or they would have made the school house bigger for il cost far less to build then than it does now.

 Must I follow him to every place he gOes?"'
 Yes" said the clergyman: you must follow him everywhere until death doth you part

The actual experience of many cities proves the force of these statements. On this subject Professor B. H. Meyer. chair man of the Wisconsin state utilities com mission, maintained by the people for the regulation of public service corporations, after many years study ill this country and abroad, says:
 If there is one thing above all others which the history of the utility business has established, it is that competition as a gualantOr of good service and regulator of rates has failed.
 THE NERIFICATION OF THIS SIMPLE TRUTH HAS COST THE PEO- PEE OF THIS AND OTHER COMMON WEALTHS UNTOLD MILLIONS OF DOLLARS
 ''The spirit of the utilities law is that wasteful competition and useless duplica- ton of plants shall cease. ..
 Ut would be nothing less than an eco- homie crime to attempt to reopen the door to competition in the utility business. with a mistaken notion that through such ac- tiOn the public will secure better service at lower rates.
 We have quoted from Professor Meyer because he is an authority representing the people.
 Public utilities are ''mOnOpOlieS' sim ply because they cant be anything else and give the best service at the lowest prices.
 The older settled states and cities have tried competition in public utilities and found that it is worthless, failing to accom- plish any of the objects for which it was designed.
 In this connection it should be noted that the attempt to fasten municipal electric plant upon Phoenix is in reality move toward .wasteful competition in electric service.

Monopoly" in Public Utilities

The prejudice against utility companies on the ground of monopoly IS a mistake, and thinking people everywhere are real izing the fact.
 If the city of Phoenix should actually construct a municipal electric plant, its first effort would be toward trying to get rid of competition.
 The condition of nOn-cOmpetition i'll utilitieS-fOund in the great bulk of cities is due entirely to NATURAL LAWS.
 A single company can serve cOmmun- ity much better and cheaper than two or more companies can perform the same ser vice.
 One local distributing system usually by far the heaviest part of the total invest ment-iS sufficient to meet all demands. The other represents the useless duplica tiOn of property.
 Two electric systems in city are like two irrigating canals side by side, each car rvng sufficient water for the entire tribu- tarv territory.
 Each competing company can obtain only part of the business. The legitimate cheapening of rates to the lowest possible point by increasing the volume of sales to the highest point is rendered impossible.
 The investment charges-including in- terest, depreciation. maintenance, taxes etc-are twice what they should be. This is barrier standing in the way of reduced rates. h&
 Cutting prices in order to get business results in selling service below cost. The weaker organization is compelled to sell out to avoid ruin
 When the consolidation is made, the duplicate investment cannot be wiped out Both consolidated company and city are burdened with financial load which has no good excuse for existence.
