Recall Blanks
Soon to Be Out

The rush of citizens to sign the
recall petitions against Mayor
Fawcett has practically put his
case up to the people already, and
tonight the committee of fifteen
will arrange to put the other
in the same boat.
The demand of the people seems
to be for chance at the whole
bunch.
AS Fawcett already will be put
up to an election by the action of
the Royal Arch, the committee of
fifteen will not need to take any
steps to get petitions for his recall,
and it will only need to go after
the other four.
Members of the committee gen.
erally express themselves as con-
fident of the action of the body
tonight. 1t is expected that recall
blanks for the other four COM
missioners will be out before the
end of this week. Then it will be
for the people to say whether they
want a new deal all around or
what commissioners they want to
save, If ssny.
The people adopted the new
charter with the recall provision
that they might be in position to
compel their officials to obey
their oaths of office. With evil
dences of incompetency rife, and
with Commissioner Roys at least
declaring openly that he did not
intend to observe his oath of Of
flee and enforce the law. the situa-
tion got to the point where the
citizens believed the time had
come to show what they meant

WASHINGTON, d. c., Feb. g.
An attack on the resolution to SUBJ
NIT to the states a constitutional
amendment for the popular cleo
ton of senators was made by Sem
ator Lodge (Mass.) in the senate
today.
Reduced to its simplest form, :"
he said, an amendment providing
for the choice of senator's by di-
rect popular election is merely a
proposition to convert the senate
into-a second house of representa-
tives, with two congressmen-at-
large to be called senators and
hold office for six years."

s HUACHUCA, Ariz., FEB. G.
The crisis in Mexican revolutions
ary activities on the border is ex-
pected this week, according to
Diaz' government officials and
rebel leaders today. The in
surgents have been stirring up the
Indians in the vicinity of Ton-chi,

WHAT DID PETERSON DO WITH THAT $4,000? !?
Rock Crusher Scheme
Looks Queer
NO END TO TANGLEs THAT APPEAR IN MANIPULATION
PUBLIC MONEY ON COUNTY
TO GET MOUNTS OFF WITH CLEAN SKIRTS.

Did Me and Mettler" spend
$27, 900 of the peoples money for
a rock crushing plant and road
machinery just to give Peterson s
brother a job as boss of the rock
crushing plant, to permit road ma
chine agents to sell goods, or was
1T because "Me and Mettler" had
something else up their sleeves.
Deputy Prosecutor Lyle says
the county cannot operate the
crusher plant legally and could
not even If there were money on
hand to do it, which there is not.
So it appears that Commissioner
Peterson and Mettler simply
bought rock crushing plant il
legally and spent the people s
money to operate it Illegally un-
til the road and bridge fund is a
couple of hundred thousand dol
lars in the hole. Then the people
refused to issue bonds to get them
out, and now they are up against
1t.
This whole rock crushe, deal
looks queer.
In the first place Commissions
er Dickson wanted the plant p1ac-
ed at the Nisqually canyon, where
the county could have had a site
for nothing. The rock there is bet
ter than the Kapowsin rock for
roads.
But "Me and Mettler" had some
reason that appealed to them and
instead of taking the best rock
and the free site, they paid $1,000
of the peoples money for site
at Kapowsin. They then proceed
ed to squander thousands of dol
lars more to make the site they
bought available to work.

Where's the $4,000

Then they called for bids for
crushers.
Where's the $4,000
The bids did not suit. Dickson
kicked and there was some manip-
ulation and then the same crush
er that had been offered for
$4,000 was offered for 5000 less
and it was bought. But machin-
cry men say there was a bonus of
500 even at that over the price
that the crusher can be purchased
for.
The whole crusher plant was
patched up in about the same way
and it never did look good.
A machinery man who looked it
over this last week SAYS that II
could be duplicated for Just about
SIS, 900.
The question is. where did that
extra $4,000 go?
No wonder that Peterson, who
engineered this deal, thinks that
Mounts, who is charged with pad
ding payrolls, in afidavits filed
with the commissioners, is all
fright.
TO anyone who would pay s27,-
1000 for 1000 rock crushing
plant that cannot be used at all
legally, little matter like pad
ding a payroll would naturally
seem to be small cause for oojec-
'tion on the part of the taXpay ers.5
"The county really has no J. Sc
for it's road machinery and rock
|crusher because of the present
law forbidding day work by
counties says Commissioner Har-
ry Ne rtin.
But that law never cut any fig-
ure with Torgy Peterson.

the siege of Juarez is likely soon
to be raised, perhaps permanently.
Robago's escape from the in
