WET AND DRY ELECTION DE-
MANDED IN NAVAJO COUNTY
Petitions from all Precincts Filed with
Board Of Supervisors. Action
Deferred until next Meeting.

At the January meeting Of the
Board of Supervisors which COM
menced Monday the 9Th the most
important occurrance was the re-
ceipt of a petition demanding an
election to determine whether or
not the sale of liquor shall be
prohibited throughout Navajo
county.
When the Board convened,
Pinetop and Pinedale, each con-
tanning eight signers were the
only petitions on hand and were
laid on the table pending the
possible receipt of the other
twelve precincts. Up to noon of
Tuesday the 7th no more peti-
tions being received it was gener-
ally believed that there would be
no more at that meeting and the
county fathers expected to COM
plete their business that night.
Examinations of the Treasurers
books and the making Of a list
for jury service occupied most of
the time. Business compelled
Barnett Stiles to leave the meet
ing early Tuesday afternoon, and
only routine business was in
prospect up to that time.
For some reason however the
bulk of the petition was withheld
until the following morning and
presented by District Attorney
Crosby, who received it from r.
c. Smith, County Superintendent
of Schools. Supervisors Hatch
and Richards decided to defer
action in the matter until the
next meetir g which will be held
in February.
The petitions contain in all 368
signers which is 18 more than the
requisite number provided by the
statues. The Winslow petition
alone had 66 signers, 16 more
than the required number. In
round figures the petitioners
constitute about twenty-five per
cent Of the last registration.
At it's next meeting Feb. 3rd,
The Winslow mail., 1913-01-11

the Supervisors will formally
consider the petitions and verify
all signatures with the poll list.
If it is found to conform with
statutory requirements it will be
mandatory for the Board to call
an election within not less than
Is days and not more than 80
days.
The action of the drys has been
anticipated for some time, so that
no surprise was occasioned by
filing Of the petitions. The senti-
ment of the residents of the up
per country is opposed on doctri-
nal grounds to the sale of LIQUOR
and in Winslow and Holbrook the
prohibitionists have some fol O v
ing.
Under the segregation act, the
vote of Winslow, the only incor-
porated town in the county, will
be considered separately from
the rest of the county, so that
even though a majority of votes
in the county decided against liq-
uor, WinsloW would remain wet
if a majority Of the Winslowites
voted that way.
The nucleus of an organization
composed Of the business men of
WinsloW has already been form
ed to combat the prohibition
movement and while it is con-
ceded that the country precincts
will chose to put liquor beyond
reach of temptation, it is conf
IDENTIFY believed that the majority
of voters in Winslow and possib-
ly Holbrook will decide for a
continuance of their personal
privaleges. At any rate the fight
is to be a decisive one and the
outcome will determine sentiment
on the issue involved. The drys
have fired the first shot and their
opponents are we'll prepared for
attack according to general sent
iment the Prohiditionists will find
poor comfart in therenurns from
Winslow.

HORSE Thief
CAUGHT At GALLUP

A horse thief by name of Geo.
A. King alias Fred A. Mack was
caught this week near Gallup, N.
M, by Sheriff Jos. F. Woods and
turned over to the Flagstaff au-
thorities who wanted him on the
above mentioned CT age.
King was in the employ Of one
Mr.. H. c. Saunders on a ranch
out of Williams and one morning
decided to leave with a wagon
and two horses without any fur
ther notice. He took cross the
country toward WinsloW but
traded his horses and wagon for
another outfit before coming
here. He got employment from
Mr.. B. T. Ketchum for about
three days and when he heard
that the officers were on his trail
he leaves his outfit with Mr..
Ketchum, takes one of his sad
dies and horses and again starts
out over the country.
Deputy Sheriff Frank Fair
child and Mr.. Ketchum started
in pursuit but found out at Keams
Canyon that they could not over
take the man, and found out that
he was heading for Gallup. They
Immediately notified Sheriff
Woods from the nearest tele-
phone station who started for
Gallup and arrested the man.

COMMISSIONERS TO
RIDE ON ALL TRAINS
They and Employees Cannot Be Excluded
In Arizona

Corporation commission mem
befs and employees must here
after be permitted to ride any
where on any train in the state.
An order to this effect was issued
today by the commission.
The corporation commission
law provides that the commission
ers and their employees shall not
be subject to the same restric-
tions as ordinary passengers. In
order for the commissioners to-
obtain all the data necessary to
the proper discharge of their du-
ties, they and the attaches of
the commission must have the
privilege Of riding in engines,
baggage cars, express cars, or
any other place from which pas
sengers are usually excluded. All
passengers are now denied the
privilege on riding on work trains
and several railroads will not
permit passengers on freights.
In some cases local passengers
are not permitted to ride on
limited trains.
Accordingly the commission
issued an order directing the rail
roads to direct their employees to
permit commissioners and at
taches the right anywhere on
any train, upon the presenta-
tation of proper credentials and
tickets.
In California the railroad COM
missioners and employees have
the privilege of riding free on
any train in the state. This law
has never been fought by the
railroads. Phoenix Gazette.

At q meeting of the Cattle
Growers Association of this coun-
ty, held at the offices of Herndon
and Thompson, last week Tues

vital Importance to the people en-
gagged in the growing of cattle

pointed by the board Of supervis-
ors topolice the ranges Of this and
adjoining counties. G. w. Hale

duty north of the river. The pay
of these ranger police will be paid

A man by name Of Tom Corne-
lison was brought to town Tues
day from Winona where he had
been in the employ of the Smith
Construction Co., with both Of
his legs cut and mashed, one at

be ascertained. The man was
alive when he was brought to

SNOWFLAKE CITIZENS
HOLD MASS MEETING

The people of Snowflake recent
ly held a mass meeting in that
thriving up-to-date little town
and appointed several prominent
citizens to look after matters of
County and State affecting the
taxpayers. The two matters es-
pecially mentioned were the re-
duction of the salaries of our
county officials and also to kill
the proposed recommendation of
the various Boards of Arizona for
a bond issue of ten million dollars
for the purpose of constructing
good roads throughout the State.
The object of the meeting is a
very good one, but we can not
quite agree with the actions
thereof, however. Every voter
should take interest in the gov
ernment of both his county and
state and familiarize himself with
all it's workings in order that he
may vote intelligently. This is
especially true under our form of
government where we have the
initiative, referendum and recall,
etc. Our taxes were high this
year for various reasons, but it is
not wholly due to the salaries Of
our county officers, which are
practically the same as under the
old form of territorial govern
nent. The tax levy for 1912 was
not high enough to meet the ex-
penses of the county for that
year and consequently the high
levy this year is to run the coun-
ty for about half Of the year 1912
and the whole year 1918. We do
not think that our county officers
are overpaid. They are all eff
cient men and could get equal
salaries from the commercial
world and you can It get good men
to serve in office unless you pay
them we'll. And besides, with
the coming of statehood their
duties have increased considera-
bly,. Now as to the proposed bond
issue the amount may be a little
too high, but the object thereof
is a commendable one and should
go through.
Good roads are needed more
than anything else in this state
and we of Navajo County realize
this more than people do in other
parts of the state. This county
has spent thousands of dollars in
temporary repairs of it's roads
and what have we to show for it?
Just after the rainy season, abso-
lutely nothing. Had the county
bonded itself years ago and built
good roads we would now have
them instead of what we have.
It it just like throwing money
away to do in the future as we
have done ir the past. The bond
issue is a good thing, the right
amount could be calculated and it
might not take ten million dollars
but we need some part thereof.
Money spent for good roads and
applied right and put into perm
anent work is not money thrown
away but invested in a paying
investment. Good roads comes
next after good school system
and there is not one of us who
does not gladly pay his portion Of
the taxes to maintain our school
system. No one dares deny that
we do not need good roads, and
the only way that we can posi-
bly, have them is to borrow the
money and build them, instead of
putting a few measley dollars in
temporary repairs each year, and
which does no permanent good.
The above opinion is only the
nerSonal one of the editor and he

land lakes. Unfortunately for them,
both their eggs and their plumes are
attractive, and merciless hunting has
almost driven them from the eastern
shores of the United States as well as
from those of western Europe and the
British Isles.
But they know their enemy and in
recent times they have chosen their
breeding places in spots almost mac
cessible to the hunters. Lately one of
their concealed breeding places has
been found on lonely part of the
coast of Norfolk, England, and the
photographs were taken there by hunt
ers who had no other aim than to in
crease our knowledge of the ways and
peculiarities of animals which, as far
as we know, have as good a right to
enjoy the gift of nature as We have.
One interesting fact about this home
of English terms is that it is believed
to be far older than the British En-
pire, there being evidence that they
have inhabited it from a time anterior
