"Along the Kennebec"

Along the. Kennebeck," a New England comedy drama, now in it's third successful season, will be produced at Williams opera house Sunday Jan 18th.
 The play is moulded along the same idea as The Old Homestead. , "Shore Acres," and "York State Foiks," and deals entirely with country life. Plays of this nature are deservedly popular, inasmuch as they are clean and wholesome and leave good taste in the mouth. They usually illustrate some good moral principle without descending to the oftimes morbid sensa tional ism of the melodrama.
 "Along the Kennebec" is said to have met with great favor wherever produced All special scenery is carried for the production and also fine band.

TERRIBLE DEATH OF
 BRAKEMAN BART

L J. Bart, brakeman for Con- ductor Carl Wilkins. was instantly killed at Canyon Diablo Monday night, by his foot slipping from the board on the COW catcher. Bart was in the act of jumping of the cow-catcher to throw the switch to head in on the side track to clear the main track for No. 10. As his foot slipped off the running board he gradually rolled directly across the track, his head falling on the rail and his feet almost on the other rail. As the engine rolled him beneath it's heavy weight, his neck was placed upon the rail and his head completely severed from the trunk as if cut by a euillotine. His right leg was also cut off and his body crushed Death must have been instantaneous after the great wheels ran over his neck, but az the cold wheels touched his skin, he must have realized the terrible death in store for him.
 When the engineer noticed that Bart had failed to perform his duty he reversed his engine and called to him; not receiving an answer, he got off his engine to throw the switch himself. As he stepped from the engine to the ground. he took a backward glance and dis covered Bart lying under the train, dead.
 Bart's home was in Flagstaff, where he leaves mother and three sisters. Misses Florence, Mary and Irene. two married sisters ir Cali. fornia, Mrs. Schlosser and Mrs. Gates to mourn his untimely death. Miss Mary Bart is employed in Babbitt Bros. large store as cashier, and is favorite with the public and all employees.
 The funeral was held Thursday at Flagstaff at 10:30 a. m.

DASTARDLY ATTEMPT
 AT TRAIN ,WRECKING


 Tuesday morning th@ ction foreman at Supai discovered that an attempt at train wrecking had been made the night before. Just east of the east switch at Supai two sections of cattle guard had been placed across the track near the switch and several rails lengths further along tie had been placed across the track, but luckily these obstacles were all scattered and torn up without doing any damage to trains 20 far as known. The east switch light was also shot out few nights before.
 It is supposed that drunken hobos who follow. up the grading camps are responsible for all this vands- lism. and it is to be hoped that they can be caught at some such work and sent over the road for several years.

APPROVES THE
 CONSTITUTION
Williams, Jan. 25. 1911

Williams, Jan. 25. 1911.
 MT. Editor News:
 Who is it that objects so strongly and persistently to the adoption of Arizona's constitution as it stands? Let me answer the question. Pres ent office holders, newspapers con- trolled by state and county officials and possibly 8 few who want to become office holders through the machine politics of one or the other of the old parties. Why? For personal advantage in holding office for longer period in case of it's rejection and for a chance of giving the ring men a longer lease of life, for with the adoption of the constitution as it stands ring poli- tics is 8 back number and our people must rule. The principal objection coming, from the opposi- ton seems to be the recall applying to the judiciary, and yet the judges themselves in the majority of cases see no objection to it, in fact no man with an honest purpose and a determination to do his duty as an official and citizen, could object to the referendum and recall as all such men should be willing to adopt any measure that would serve to keep officials in check whether he be constable or judge. Arizona needs statehood and God bless her she needs it and deserves | it, but she cannot afford to accept it with dishonor. We sent our citizens duly elected by the people to convention for the purpose of fra ming laws for the government of the people, and they have done the work faithfully and we'll, giving us constitution that every ma n should be proud of Then we turn them. down and say to them be cause of some objection at Wash lington and numerous kicks from the soreheads at home. we cannot endorse your good work, but will have you do it over again, and leave out those things we need the most to make us a good govern ment and then we can be admitted as a corrupt state and we will take chances on getting our laws im' approved later on.
 No, thousand times no. On the 9th day of February we will say to our constitution makers we'll done thou good and faithful servants, we endorse your work ter to one, and to the president anc senate we will offer a bright anG untarnished state that the nation should be proud to add among the cluster over the national ban ner. They cannot. they dare no reject it. Then come to the pole on election day. show to the world that we know 8 good thing wheI we gee it, and cannot be induced by conscience to throw it away

A NEW AWAKENING.

The prospect for general revival in
mining in the states is exceedingly
good. The present trouble in Mexico
will undoubtedly turn very large sum
of money from that section of the min
ing world. The instruction is becom-
ing more serious every day, notwith-
standing the reports sent out by the
government to the contrary. At the
present time there are several we'll
known mining engineers stopping
across the Mexican border, at Ell Paso
and other cities, waiting for the trouble
to pass over, and a recent report pub
lished in one Of the eastern mining
Journals is to the effect that one very
large mining deal, calling for $40, 0O0,-
900, has been called off entirely, owing
to the present internal strife. Large
capital will not enter country under
conditions such as prevail in Mexico.
The newspapers, in Colorado and other
western mining states are taking up
their home cry and are bidding in strong
terms for the capital that has been
flowing INTO the southern country. The
Black Hills itself is entering a new era
of mining. The several new enter
prises that are now on are sure to pay
out. When we have twenty instead of
few paying mining companies, large
capital will be more ant to come our
way.
