noted the influence of the Franciscan
Fathers. who have several missions
among the Indians of that section. The
fathers are well educated, highly in
telligent Germans, who, with true
Christian fortitude are contending with
frontier conditions and making the best
of them. At one mission. thirty miles
from any railroad, they have print
ing plant, equipped only with hand
press. So great is the care they exer-
else, however. that they do some beau
tiful work. Their most ambitious at
tempt was the printing of an ethno-
logical dictionary of the Navajo
language. which is really a complete
history Of the tribe. The fathers them
selves compiled the dictionary and 200
copies were printed for persons who
subscribed in advance. In this diction
airy is information never before printed
and consequently copies of the book
are highly priced by their owners. A
great many more copies could have
been disposed of had they been printed.
At present the fathers are compiling
and preparing to publish smaller Ma
vajo dictionary, without the ethno-
logical references.
Miss Hall has made arrangements to
secure a copy of the chronological die
tionary for the territorial library. I'm
doubtedly it will be one of the mast
interesting books in the library. 1t is
unique in that it was written. printed
and published in Arizona.
A number of Mormon villages were
visited by Miss Hall AMI she spoke in
all the schools she could reach. The
children seemed to be even more inter
ested in her work than their elders and
became quite enthusiastic over what
she told them of Arizona history Miss
Hall has only the highest praise for
the Mormon schools, including the
academies at Snowflake and Springer
vile, in which she also spoke. She ex
amined the course of study and found
it excellent.
In speaking of the Mormon settle
ments, Miss Hall likened them to the
villages in he south of France Lom-
hardy poplars and trees of many other
varieties are planted in profusion along
the streets. Each home is surrounded
by spacious garden and orchard.
In Miss Halls opinion, this is the
best and richest section of Arizona
Grass covers the ranges and all kinds
of stock are fine. Prosperity is evident
on every hand in the Mormon country,
while in the White mountains the Indi-
ans. are ideally situated Fish are in
every stream and there is an abund-
ance of game. The natural resources
are almost untouched. According to
a recent estimate of the forestry de-
partment, there is three billion feet of
uncut timber in the White mountain
national forest There is a broad coal
belt beginning about Keam's canyon
and extending fifty miles down into the
Navajo country. A short spur of rail-
road is being built out from Gallup to
tap these coal fields. Miss Hall saw
places where the residents were dig
Hging coal out of the hillsides for their
own use.
The Globe Durango railroad. which is
now certainty, will do great deal to
open up this country and Miss Hall
expects in very few years to see
thousands Of people where there are
scores now.

to obtain vast amount Of historical
data.
During the course of her travels Miss
Hall happened to see two Moqui snake
dances and also the MoQui Dance OF
the Flute" The latter Is little known
So far as Miss Hall was able TO learn
no white person had ever before seer
il, excepting a few who live right in
that section. 1t is a religious ceremony
and as different from the snake dance
as it could possibly be. Young girls
take part as well as the men, and al
are dressed in most beautiful costumes
The dance is as intricate and beautiful
as the most carefully planned fancy
dance.
Another interesting affair which Miss
Hall had the opportunity of observing
was a Navajo chicken pulling. Al
least 1000 people took part in the sport
which was impressive If barbaric. All
members of the tribe who were present
were decked out in their richest finery
The women as a rule, wore velvet
dresses and the men wore velvet shirts
When the chicken pullers, mounted up
on their fat ponies, swept down the
open course the scene was indeed one
of picturesque grandeur.
Miss Hall visited for time with
Lorenzo Hubbell, who maintains a
trading post at Canada. Mr.. Hubbell
did every thing in his power to enter
tain the historian and obtain data for
her In fact everyone whom she met
on the trip seemed to be deeply inter
ested in the work she was doing and to
be extremely anxious to give her every
assistance possible.
From Canada Miss Hall wept to ST
Michaels, where the trading post of S
E Day, twice a member of the terri
torial legislature from Navajo county
is located. From Mr.. Day. who has
lived among the Navajos a number OF
years, Miss Hall secured much in
formation that will be of inestimable
value to her in compiling a history of
Arizona.
stayed any length of time was Gallup
New Mexico. She went over into the
eastern territory especially to see some
Arizona people who have moved into
the Gallup district and made homes for
themselves. They were able to give
her still more information about the
early history of northeast Arizona
Swinging back into Arizona. Miss
Hall went to Holbrook and from there
on to Cooley's ranch. where she visited
some days with Colonel Cooley, an old
comrade of General Crook, who knows
more stories of early days than can
ever be printed. Going on to Fort
Apache. Miss Hall spent some time
looking over old records 1t was from
these records that she secured some of
the most valuable data she obtained
on the trip. The records of the past
from the time of its establishment
were opened to her inspection Near
Fort Apache she met such famous In
dian scouts as Mickey Free and Loco,
as well as many other White Mountain
Apache who fought with and against
Crook Most of the old scouts are now
quite willing to talk about the days
that are past.
The old log cabin in which General
Crook made his headquarters for a
number of years is near Fort Apache,

SIBLEY REFUSES TO RUN
Republican Nominee for Con-
qress WithdraWs.
Now Believed Campaign Expense Suit
Will Be Dropped-Spent $4,000
in Contest for Nomination.

Sharon, Pa Aug. 23.-Joseph c. Sib-
ley, Republican nominee for congress
in the Twenty Eighth district, has an
nounced his withdrawal from the race
In brief statement Sibley states that
when he went into the campaign his
eyesight was troubling him, but since
that time he had suffered a general
breakdown, with heart trouble as one
of the principal causes of his failing
health. He says that his wife's health
is poor. For these two reasons he
says it is impossible for him to under
go the vigors of another campaign.
What effect his withdrawal will have
on the audit of Sibley's campaign ex-
penses account which was to have
been made before Judge Criswell of
Franklin on Aug. 20, is a matter of
speculation, but it is believed the pro-
ceedings will be dropped. -.
In his sworn statement of expenses
incurred during the campaign it was
shown that Sibley spent $4,000, or
$3.50 for every vote he received. Men
toned as a possible successor to Sib-
ley are James p Whitla, of kidnapping
fame; Col w. N. Hulings, of Oil City,
and Nelson P. Wheeler, of Endeavor.

ROOSEVELT PLEASED
Will Not Attend State Convention Un.
less Forced to Do So.

Oyster Bay, Aug. 23.-In a statement
which Col. Roosevelt issued upon hear
ing of the letter which President Taft
sent to Lloyd C. Griscom, repudiating
Vice President Sherman, Mr. Roose-
welt said that his position in regard
to the state situation is definite, and
that he has nothing to change In It,
The colonel declared that since the
meeting there has been more reason
why he should meet the state leaders,
and that their action at the meeting
has made the situation such that It al
lows no compromise.
From what the colonel said 1t Is un-
likely that he will attend the conven-
ton unless he is forced to do so. He
has told his friends right along that
he wanted to keep out because he did
not desire to get mixed up in fac
tional fight. He considered that Sher-
man as temporary chairman would
make that stand necessary, but he may
change his mind later. Whatever ac-
ton he does take will not be an
nounced until after his return from his
western trip, which will begin today.
After hearing President Taft's letter
read, Col Roosevelt said: 81 am very
glad to see President Taft's statement
and am pleased with it
