Mohave County miner., 1912-10-26

l George thompson, WHo ndS oooH farming on the Big Sandy, is in town to get line on the entry of a parcel of land that he has been reclaiming
 He says that the Sandy Valley is one
 of the richest sections of Gods green i earth, the product of staples per acre being too wonderful to relate. Sweet potatoes weighing twenty-four pounds each are not uncommon on the ranches there. Corn twelve feet or more in night and having five well developed ears are the usual thing, while sor- gham grows so large that if the plants are thinned out crosscut saw will be necessary to fell them. Pumpkins grow so fast and so large that they crowd each other out of the fields. From six to eight crops of alfalfa are grown yearly on these lands. and the hay is fed to hogs and cattle. It is proba ble that artesian water may be obtained iu this valley and that the bench lands will later be brought under cultivation.
 This week Judge Krook cited James w. Haas, of Mineral Park, to appear and show cause why he should not be punished for contempt of court in disobeying an order of the court. Some time ago an injunction restrain ing Haas from closing a wagon road leading from the town of Mineral Park to the Keystone mine was made per. manent, and Haas was required to open the roadway to the use of the people who formerly had the free use of the thoroughfare. Recently Haas again closed the roadway and con- pIaint was made to the court. Proof was ample and the court gave Haas twenty-four hours in which to open the road, with an alternative of punishment should he fail to do so. The sheriff's office has been busy this week working out clews to the burglary Of Lovln and WltherS store. Arrests were made of a number of suspects, but one by one they have been discharged.

A Home Institution For Home Men

help himself and that it only loans
money on the best security.

CANDlDATES-ELKS GAME.
The Long -Talked-o BaIl-Fest Sue.
ceeds Gab-Fest.


Believing that there is nothing like
being prepared for the worst, the
E,lks ball team handed the Candidates
bunch yesterday which will prepare
them for that which a part of them
will have portioned out next Tuesday
at the primaries.
To the cold-blooded heartlessness
which prompted the Elks to place
an auxiliary umpire in the field, Mrs.
Curtis says she feels she owes, in
part at least, the downfall of her
peerless aggregation of pie grabbers.
Not satisfied with the decisions
which would have been rendered
unaided by Umpire Garrett, decis-
ions which would have been neces-
sarily fair and impartial, because
Garrett is both an Elk and can
didate, the unfeeling order. behind
closed doors, working in dark and
mysterious manner selected Fred
kinkade to pass on strikes and balls
co-jointly with Buck Garrett.
Confronted by all the terrors of
his obligation, auxiliary umpire Kin
kade, SO it is claimed. acted as ac-
cessory during the fact and enabled
by so doing, the Elks to write vic
tory upon the mahogany with fingers
dipped in the froth from foaming
bowls.
This is the story of the lady-lik
manageress of the Candidates. Steve
Douglas, manager of the Elks, how
ever, states that had not Umpire
kinkade been ''buffaloed" by the
golden badge of office of the other
umpire the score would have been
much heavier in favor of the winning
etam He even states that he is
thinking seriously of playing a re-
turn game with the disgruntled Can
didates, under impartial umpiring of
one who really knows the national
game of ball, just to show what the
hot air team can do. Acting along
this line, We are informed, he has
opened negotiations with Walter
Barnes. pitcher for the Ardmore
Scratch cats.
But for the history of the game:
The candidates went down in defeat,
and furious five-inning series of |
stunts. by a score eof five to four.
High balls featured the game on the
part of the Elks, while stolen bases

didates. Judge Mason for the Can
didates and Harold Wallace of the
Ells tied for honOrs in the number !
of times each stumbled over his
own feet and fell to earth
The parade from the Wilmington
hotel to the ball park did not take
place because of the failure of the
band to put in appearance at the
proper time. or any other time. But,
Notwithstanding the elimination of
this feature the game was largely
attended. In fact, the crowd at the
park broke the seasons record.
Mrs. Curtis, who will receive one
third of the gate receipts for use in
cases of those needing charitable aid,
stated that she had not yet settled
with the management Of the Ard
more ball team, but that she had
been unofficially informed that the
cause of charity would be richer by
fifty dollars or more, as a result of |
yesterdays game.
In the name of the worthy poor

Bryan on Political Issues.

In an interview in the New York
World yesterday William J. Bryan gave
his views on the political issues Of the
day. He said, in part:
THE one prime essential is that the
democratic party shall be democratic.
BY that I mean that it shall live up to
the standard that it has raised before the
people. and fulfill the hopes that it has
excited. The democratic party has led
In the sixteen-year fight against the cor
porate domination of politics For more
than one-half of that time it had scarcely
any assistance from the republican lead
ers.
Seven or eight years ago Senator La
Toilette. the pioneer reformer in the re-
publican party, began to organize a pro-
gressive force In that party. Mr.. Roose-
welt during his second term gave some
encouragement to the movement, but the
chief growth Of insurgency in the repub-
lican party has occurred during the last
four years.
1.-The third-term objection to Mr.. Roose-
welt very materially lessons his ability to
represent progressive sentiment. II he
had taken up the cause of Senator La,

on this question is as follows:

both the contests for nomination and the
contests for election. and OF their publica-
ton before the nomination. Indeed. I
think such legislation absolutely neces-

the field to public view in which sinister
influences are most apt to Turk and con-

will the progressives in the national

planks favoring the initiative. referen-

mo, 1 do not expect any effort to be
made to secure the Endorsement Of any
Of these reforms. They are state ques-
lions and not national issues. The opin-
ions Of candidates for the presidency on
these questions are important only in SO
far as they indicate a fundamental bias.
"A man who is opposed to the initia-
tive and referendum, for instance, Is quite
likely to be opposed to the election Of
senators by the direct vote Of the people.
This is not a universal rule, because
sometimes opposition to the initiative and
referendum is due to q lack OF under
standing of the principles involved But
when the subject Is clearly understood,
the man who favors the popular election

other reforms, and the man who opposes
one is likely to oppose the others, and
the distrust Of the people Is apt to show
itself on other questions"
