CLOUD BURST
Bainvlloe Flooded with Wates
Sunday Afternoon by Enor.
nous Downpour

The thunder storm east of Cul-
bertson last Sunday, which could
plainly be seen from here, came to
climax about mile west Of Balm
Vile. Tons and tons of water fell
in this vicinity washing out fields
and overflow,ng the railroad track.
Rev. r. T. Cookingham, who
was at Lanark holding services at
the time OF the downpour, returned
to Bainville in his automobile after
the worst was over. He gives a
very vivid description Of the action
Of the storm. When he arrived at
the place indicated above, about
mile west OF Bainville he found the
railroad track undermined, the ties
loose and the track shifted and un-
even. The rain had washed the
gravel from the trackbed.
The fields in the vicinity also
appeared to have been swept with
a tornado, the top layer Of dirt re.
moved and deep gullies plowed
here and there.
Rev. Cookingham says that the
place had every appearance OF he
ing the point where two great
storm clouds met, coming up from
different directions, and at their
meeting dropping their contents
upon limited area OF ground.
When he arrived in Bainville a
short time later part Of the town
was under two feet Of water. He
staid in BainvIlle until the railroad
track had been repaired and then
came home on No. ; which was
several hours late.
His experiences during the storm
will long be remembered.
While this storm was raging at
Lanark and Bainville, from eight
to fifteen miles east OF Culbertson,
this town only received few big
drops OF rain, net enough to inter
fere with the ball game which was
then in progress.
There must have been more
than one Of these cloud bursts in
the vicinity east OF Culbertson.
S. E. Waterman, who has a claim
about two miles southeast Of Lam
ark, was IN town Tuesday and he
had a drawing OF a water spout or
cloud burst that happened less
than half mile from his house.
Mr.. Waterman was looking out
OF his window at the dark mass Of
clouds coming up from the south
east when he discovered a dark
column running from the clouds
down towards the ground. He
followed It down with his eye and
says that where it struck the
ground there was cloud OF foam
arose like that at the bottom OF a
waterfall 1t was not a straight
column, but made two turns, one
to the west and again straight
down, before striking the ground.
The column or spout (it was not a
large one) was travelling slowly in
a northwesterly direction.
AS Mr.. Waterman was gazing at
this peculiar phenomenon the
spout broke between the two turns,
the lower part falling to the ground
and the upper part being drawn
up into the clouds. There was
very little rain falling at the time
this occurred. most of the rain be-
ing over, and besides this was in
the extreme western edge Of the
rainfall that afternoon.
Mr.. Waterman sat right down
and made a neat drawing Of the
clouds. the water spout and the
fields in which it occurred and
this he showed to a number of
people Of Culbertson, among whom
was the Searchlipht editor.

BOARD SUPERVISORS AWARD CONTRACTS
 FOR YEAR
w. O. Wheatley Receives Ap- pointment as Clerk and Pete Riley Appointed COmmis-
 siOner of Immigration to
 Succeed Ben Crawford.
BIDS ASKED ON DUNCAN BRIDGE
Board of Supervisors Will Meet Again on January 18th and Receive
 Bids Again.

The Board of Supervisors of Green. lee County met for the last time in 1911 at the court house Saturday morning December 3Oth with all mem, bers of the Board present. Most of the time on Saturday was spent in clear ing up routine matters connected with the administration during the past year. The assessor made his final settlement with the Board, the Treas urer turned in his quarterly report and most of the day was spent in aud, iting demands for the past year.
 At the meeting on Saturday two new appointments were made by the Board. w. O. Wheatley, who has been the clerk for the past year, was re- appointed by the Board for the year 1912. Pete Riley received, the appoint ment as Commissioner of Immigration the Board taking the position that Hon. B.M. Crawford had been appoint ed for one year, and delaring his ap- pointment terminated on January !, 1912, proceeded to give the appoint ment to Mr. Riley
 The Board adjourned Saturday ev- ening until Tuesday morning when bids were received fer the annual cun- tract work for the year 1912.
 Sam Abraham of the Clifton Hotel was awarded the contract for feed ing the county prisoners in the Clifton jail at the rate of 20 cents per meal. The Eagle restaurant had in a bid a few cents lower than that of MT Abra- ham, but the Board considered MT. Abraham's bid the lowest responsible bid and awarded him the contract.
 Gid Thompson, of Morenci, was awarded the contract for feeding the county prisoners at Morenci at the rate of 20 cents per meal. MT. Thomp- son was the only bidder for this con tract at Morenci.
 The contract for furnishing the cor rugated iron culverts to be used in the construction of the county road be- tween York and Duncan was awarded to the Western Metal Manufacturing Co., at Fl Paso for $3,1S0.,
 No bids were received for burying the indigent dead and the clerk was to re-advertise for same.
 The bids for the county advertising and printing submitted by The Cop per Era, Duncan Arizonian and H. H. McNeil were rejected and the clerk ordered to re-advertise for same. The bid of H. H. McNeil Go. was based on an advertisement published by the Maricopa County Board of Supervis- orS which in some instances differs from the Greenlee County advertise ment On most of the items of job printing the H. H. McNeil Co., of Phoe- nix was the lowest bidder. The man. agers of the Copper Era and the Dun can Arizonian raised the question that under the statutes the county printing must be let to the newspaper offices within the county. The district attor- ney gave his opinion to this effect and the clerk was instructed to re-adver- tise for bids

ARIZONA INSURGENTS
(ArizOna DemOcrat)

The insurgent Republicans of Ari- zona see their duty and are going to do it! The utter rout of the stand pat federal bunch in the election of December 18th has opened the way for sidetracking them decisively and permitting the really progressive mem bers of the party to reorganize the G. O. P. of Arizona along the lines of popular and progressive ideas.
 It is clear to everybody who has gumption enough to dodge a locomo- tive at top speed that if Republican ism is ever to have life, substance and hope in Arizona again, it must be under new leadership and with a Lin coln-La Toilette platform.
 Your Uncle George Young sees the situation with clear vision and enough of courage to be the Sheridan of the era, and he and his friends are organ izing to save their party from being permanently declassed and obliterat- ed from the map of this new con- monwealth. If anybody in Arizona can rally the disordered and defeated Re publicans of the state, Uncle George is the man.

MINE-SMELTER TOWN
 NEAR TUCSON

TUCSON, Dec. 30-An illustration of the way in which southern Arizona is devloping is afforded by the Pion- eer. Smelling company which has just opened, it's works for business and is now maintaining small town by the number of men that it keeps at work at Camp Corwin, 21 miles south of Tucson.
 Messrs. Corwin and Waters came here a few months ago, looked out their business location, and have since spent s150,00O in the business. A few weeks ago they began smelling ores, obtained from their mine at the Twin Buttes, about seven miles at the end of the railway.
 It is one of the finest things of the kind I have ever seen," said a Douglas man who just arrived from there. They have process of reduction that involves oil, and they have three 30,- 900 gallon oil tanks. Among the fea- lures of the work are raised scales which will weigh carload of ore or a man or a piece of glass with equal accuracy The company at present employs some fifteen men in it's mine and small army of them in the smell ter"

THREE YEARS, OR ONLY ONE?
Arizona Republican

Senator-elect c. B. Wood agrees with the opinion of former Chief Jus tice A C.. Baker that it is the intent of the constitution that the state con- stitution shall serve for a year only, or more properly until their success sors, elected the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November, 1912, shall have qualified and taken their seats. When the question was first agitated Judge Baker gave out an in terview on the subject, and there is no doubt the judge is still of the opin- ion which he expressed in that inter- view.
 In his statement Judge Baker said the matter was plainly understood by every member of the constitutional convention that the first set of state and county officials should serve only for the time specified in the organic law; and he said further that he would oppose the aspirations of any Democrat who tried to put a different construction upon the constitutional section providing for the tenure of of fee.

FIVE HUNDRED YAQUIS AFTER DECADE IN YUCATAN ARE NOW
 BEING RETURNED TO SONORA

After a decade or more of heart breaking exile in the hot lands, ' 500 Yaquis whose family ties were ruthlessly broken and who were de ported from Guaymas to Yucatan dur ing the reign of Gen. Luis Torres, in Sonora, will pass through Tucson in about 10 days, returning to their an- cestral lands in the Yapui valley. The Indians are now being brought into Mexico City from Yucatan. Advices to this effect have just been received by the Southern Pacific general offices in Tucson and arrangements for the big passenger movement are being made. It will be under the direction and at the expense of the Mexican government.
 Originally at least 2,OOO Yaquis were packed like sardines in the little Coastwise steamers at Guaymas and sent off to Yucatan.' There are en- ployeS of the Southern Pacific of Mex ico in Tucson, who well remember the event. What proportion of these 2,000 men, women and children eXil- ed by the Sonora government at the Yaqui wars have survived the climate of Yucatan, is unknown, but it is be- lieved it will be found that more than half that number have lived to see the day when they can return to their native land.
 The present movement is the result of the final settlement of the negotia- tions between the Indians and the Ma dero government which have been concluded in Mexico City.
