 COLORADO SPRINGS. Colo, Oct 16.-The Sixth International dry farm congress put Yavapai' county on the map today when it awarded blue ribbon prizes to Thomas Brock for white Dent corn, D. M. Wynkoop for white Mexican bayou and Kentucky beans, Sam Boblett for Aztec beans, Walter Atkin for buckwheat and second prizes to James Davis for bayon beans and yellow Dent corn. Yavapai county has nine prizes to date and is certain to take firsts on peaches and apples as these fruit displays are conceded to be far su- perior to any here.
 Professor McOmie arrived Saturday and is one of the judges.
 The congress will go down to his tory as the finest and most eompre- hensive exhibition of retaining arid lands in the history of the world.
 Nearly every country possessing semi-arid acreages is represented. Canada has the best showing, her ex- hibits taking up nearly one-half of the entire ground space. Alberta and Saskatchewan have the most complete and interesting showing. Grains and grasses predominate, al though some excellent specimens of root crops, including potatoes, turn ips and beets are shown. They will be hard to beat by anything raised in the United States.
 New Mexico will have a represen- tative range of her dry farming pro-

of Governor.

In brief note to the governor the
state supreme court declined to act as
a board of arbitration in the contro'
versy between the governor and F. A.
Whittier, superintendent Of the state
training school for boys at Red Wing.
The note was signed by Chief Justice
Start and said:
your request of May 20 that the
justices of the supreme court act as
arbiters in the matter of charges to be
preferred against the superintendent
of the state training school for boys
at Red Wing, has been duly consid-
cred and the conclusion reached that
we cannot comply with the request.
We have no Jurisdiction of the matter
as court, and IL we should consent
to act as arbitrators It would estab-
lish an undesirable precedent which
would embarrass the court and d.
rectly tend to impair confidence in it.
We are, therefore, constrained by our
views of judicial duty and propriety
to decline to comply"

DESTRUCTIVE FIRE
At C0kEY ISLAND
Damage Of Three Millions at
Amusement Resort

New York, May 2S.-Coney Island,
the playground of New York, has suf-
fered the worst fire of its history.
reamland, the largest of the amuse:
ment parks, was wiped out and about
four blocks adjoining covered with
booths, restaurants, hotels, moving
picture theaters and resorts of vari-
Gus types, were destroyed.
The fire broke out at a. m. and
was not under control until three
hours and a half later. The loss will
amount to between S2,000,0O0 and
100000.
In all about 200 buildings were
burned down and perhaps 1000 per-
sons--concessionaire and employees
were turned into the streets home
less and penniess. No lives were lost.
The burned area represented nearly
a third of the entire amusement city.
all Of which would undoubtedly have
gone in the teeth of strong wind but
for the fact that Coney Island, with a
high pressure water system especially
designed for fire precaution, is better
guarded against disaster Of this kind
than any other similar resort in the
world.

WILSON VISITS TWIN CITIES
New Jersey Governor Discusses Mod.
ern Questions,

Minnesota had it's first acquaint'
ance with Woodrow Wilson, governor
of New Jersey and possible Democratic
presidential candidate. Its citizens
met the man and heard his views on
public questions.
The former president of Princeton
university was kept busy meeting the
people of the Twin Cities and at the
banquet at the Saint Paul he expound-
ed in detail his views on what is the
matter with American government and
what should be done to remedy things.
He expressed progressive and mod
ern views of public questions, but his
remedies for the country's ills were
constructive and not destructive. He
had no quarrel with corporate wealth
as such, but demanded that it be made
the servant and not the master OF the
PEOPLE and that what the corporations
do be done openly and publicly.

Minnesota Readers
DEPUTIES SHOOT 4 SETTLER
Northern Minnesota Tragedy Resem-
bIes the Deitz Affair at Cam
eron Dam, Wisconsin.

Peter Vorbanich. settler on Wa
terhen river, south Of Biwabik. played
the John Deitz role just four days
and he is now in hospital at Vir-
ginia dangerously wounded. He was
shot through the hand by Deputy
Sheriff John King and in the right
side by Deputy Sheriff Frank Magic.
Vorbanich demanded $1,000 of the
Northern Lumber company, a Weyer-
haeuser corporation, for the privilege
of running logs through the Waterhen
river on his land, which the company
refused. and for four days he held the
drivers at bay, firing few shots to
convince them that he was in earnest.
Deputy Sheriffs John King and
Frank Magic left Virginia in an auto
mobile with a warrant for the arrest
of Vorbanich for assault in the second
degree. They left their automobile
three miles from the Vorbanich home
stead and proceeded on foot.
Arriving in sight of the clearing
they found Mr. and Mrs. Vorbanich at
some distance from the house and
their fifteen-year-old son near the
building. The deputies were not mo-
Tested as they approached. When they
explained their mission Mrs. Vorban-
ich called to her son and talked to
him in Austrian, which the deputies
could not understand, but she. told the
lad in English to get the gun.
Son Goes After Rifle.
The lad started after it and the dep
uties proceeded to arrest the man and
his wife. .
Vorbanich then picked up a pitch
fork and some rocks Magic called to
King to 60 after the boy who had gone
for the gun, but turned back again
when, looking over his shoulder, he
saw that Magic was going to have his
troubles with the man and woman.
King fired at the feet of Vorbanich
as the man approached threateningly
with rocks and pitchfork, but the man
did not hesitate. He came right along
and then King shot him in the hand.
Still the settler. enraged by his hurt,
came forward, and then Magic shot
him in the side, and he fell. .
BY this time the boy appeared, run
hing toward the group with his rifle.
The deputies put on bold front to
the boy and ordered him to drop the
rifle. The lad was anxious to help
his parents, but was afraid, and after
nerve failed him and he turned and
ran away and later could not be found.
The deputies made a stretcher and
carried the wounded man three miles
to their auto. accompanied by Mrs.
VOrbanich.
