Stranger things have happened

Rsessman from Alabama and chair.

mittee Of the house of representa-
tives. should receive the Democratic
nomination for president next year.
The idea which has prevailed for
many years That n southern man car
riea a handicap on account OF his
place of residence has happily dis
appeared Everybody now realizes
that the war is over, aud people sen.
crafty are ready TO judge u man ON
hls merits. regardless Of the acci-
dental circumstance Of HE ancestry

dates go--too young TO have imbibed
any OF the bitterness OF the great
sectional struggle ~ the sixties. and

Mr.. t'nderwoOd's congressional ca
recr has been good Vt had. according
10 the point OF view. J, must he nd
mitted. however. that he has shown
a decided talent for leadership since
he has occupied the position Of chair

tee Of tho house. which 60 all insents
and purposes carries with u the post
of first In command Of his party in
that body. And long felt want Of
the Democratic party IL a real leader
Perhaps the most encouraging
thing about the Underwood cnadidacy
is the fact that he denies being a
candidate and disclaims his intention
OF becoming one. He has played the
game long enough 20 realize the dan
gers OF Song campaign, ana TO
know that II In very easy thing for
an oyer-auxlous candidate To wear
out his popularity with fsckie puo-
Tic. Also. he knows his southern
constituency. 81 thss really want him
as the Democratic candidate. they
want him bad. and will listen to no
acnials Of bis desire for the nomi-
nation. II they are half.hcarted or
weak-knced In their support Of him
his candidacy would NOT be worth
while. In the last analysis. the nom
inatlon OF Nj. Underwood depends
on whether the southern people have
gotten over the Idea that southern
man can not be elected president and
whether the Alabama congressman
measures up 20 their ideal OF what a
presidential candidate should be.
or course. Mr.. Bryan IL aSways 20

and he win have no Underwood In

that the Bryan opposition will pre-
vent the possibility OF undarwood's
election. II may insure his nomination
at the hands OF his convention. for
the Democrats have ever been fond
OF flying IN the face 81 consequences,
and large element OF the party has
grown exceedingly weary of Mr.. Bry-

Construction Work at Supai

Supai is again the busy center for contract work and will be for several months to come. Sharp &
 Fellows have moved their shovel camp from Fairview and are cut ting off the north side of the old main line and will lower the grade at the hill top about IS feet, using the dirt thus removed to fill in crossings over the big Supai and other canyons north of Mcclellan. About 250.000 yards of dirt will be taken from top of the hill at Supai, making even a larger cut than was made by the L. J. Smith Go. last year. But with two big steam shovels, and five engines to haul, it : is thought the work can be com pleted in five months, and possibly sooner.

WORK ON BALL PARK :
 NEARING COMPLETION

Been over to the ball park lately
 If not, you wouldn't know it since
 last Sunday. There was a whole
 lot of work done Sunday. Mayor Stark was on the job. He assisted Frank Boulin and "Kid" Thomp- son, our expert carpenters, in put ting up the grand stand. Boulin and Thompson contributed their labor free, and they took as much pains in their work as if it were 8 mansion for Teddy Roosevelt. Ed Johnson and Cowboy" Bonistch showed up the scantlings to Thomp- son, who was suspended in the air like a money in a cocoanut tree. Roy Watson and Bill" Kitten. house dug post holes, while "Jim" Brophy and Ole Preysz lifted out the dirt. Far out in center field Oom Paul and "Curly" were busy removing all the debris of the old shack, which was consigned to the flames by Martin Buggeln to get it out of the way.
 About 1:30 p. ID. the L. J. Smith Construction company sent over two teams. with "Boss" Schmidt to see that the dirt was evenly dis tributed and the larger stones re- moved. Manager Sweetwood was the busiest man in the crowd. He had everybody working and all doing their level best. Charlie Brooks and Captain Cline were on hand with their instruments to stake of the bases and see how much dirt should be filled in at various low places.
 On Monday two teams from the Smith Construction company's out fit and more blowing and scraping was done; Wednesday Ritter & Wade loaned one of their teams and with two heavy steel rails the diamond was made as level as a dollar. Thursday Manager Sweet wood was busy removing the peb- bles from the diamond; tomorrow it will be "rolled" and the finishing touches put on.
 Everybody is invited out tomor- row to inspect the work. The joyous sound of "play ball" will soon be heard in Williams.

That Boasted Land of Sunshine

T. Jeff Evans, the Ash Fork mer- chant, was a business visitor in Williams last Saturday. Mir. Evans had just returned from trip to Los Angeles, and stated that he was glad to get back to, Arizona to see what sunshine looked like. The next time Jeff has business in the Angel City he will take with him rain coat. umbrella and a pair of waders. And still there are some who think that Southern California is land of sunshine. Arizona has more sunshine way down in the cellar than five or six Califoruia's tied in a bunch.

Promise of a Prosperous Year

Promise of 8 Prosperous Tear
 Pat Grove came in from his ranch, eight miles northeast of Williams, this week. The onerous labors of feeding the pigs, milking the COWS, churning the butter and performing the multifarious other duties incident to farm life, had grown monotonous, and he con- cluded that the glare and glitter of a real live town was needful to relieve that tired feeling. and 90 he hiked hitherward. w. A. Mccoy, his partner, and who owns 16O acres adjoining MT. Crowe's, has gone out to the ranch. He will seed the two tracts of land to oats this year. Last season barley was sown and bounteous crop har- vested. MT. Grove says that every indication points to an exception. ally prosperous year for all sections of the county tributary to Williams.
