TALE OF TWO CITIES
is ONE OF BITTERNESS

Much bitterness has been en-
gendered over the question of county
division up in Coconino county.
Flagstaff is strenuously opposed 10
such a movement while Williams,
on the other hand, wants the county
cut in two. Flagstaff got busy and
has delayed dismemberment by in
voking the referendum and has thus
obstructed the fulfillment of the ambi-
ton of its rival town until the cleo
ton of November, 1914
But in the meantime Williams has
discovered that some funny" work
had been perpetrated by an attache
of the Legislature from the time the
bill passed until it reached the
Governor. And believe it or not,
just as you choose, but there is a
mighty loud roar being raised at
Williams, the echoes of which are
being heard the length and breadth
VI tilC OldtS-
With the initiative and referendum
as a part of the "God-given" consti-
tuition, there is great scope for the
people to have fun in the game of
politics. Flagstaff having availed it
self of the opportunity of invoking
the referendum on the county divi-
sion bill, Williams has bought a
stack OF blues and is sitting in the
initiative game, having declared its
answering purpose OF proposing
county division bill to be also
submitted at the 1914 general cleo
ton.
In the last issue OF the Williams
News, there are three or four articles,
the tenor of which is evidence that
a JonathanDavid friendship no
longer exists between the cities OF
Williams and Flagstaff. One bitter
ly attacks B. A. Cameron, the as
SCISSOR OF Coconino county for
circulating referendum petitions
throughout the State on the county
division bill. Another deals with the
emasculation of the county division
bill and tells what Williams proposes
to do in the premises, as follows:
Who tempered with the county
division bill somewhere between its
passage by the Legislature and the
time it reached Governor Hunt?
That Is a question that has
aroused the people OF the western
end of Coconino county in the last
week, caused general comment by
the Arizona press, and which is like
ly to result in a Statewide scandal
and an investigation by a committee
of the Legislature.
The bill was tempered with. OF
that there seems to be no shadow

MAN, AT 65 WOULD
 MARRY GIRL OF TWELVE

Duncan, of the Circuit Court for Bal timore county, has refused to iE8u8 1 wedding license for the marriage cf William Still, 6 years old, of Pzrlrtcl. Baltimore county, and his 12 year old housekeeper, Bertha Grove
 Judge Duncan said that while t19 law did not specify at what as8 per- sons might marry, with the congcut of their parents, common 5udgme1l would make him forbid the fs8uau1c of the license.
 Still, accompanied by the girl, ap- peared at the Towson court houE1. and, after showing the written c0nseut of the girls parents to the marFiaEs. asked for a license. It was refused because the consent was not sigus1 by two other witnesses.

NEW1TOWN
Special to The Farmer )

Newtown, Nov 2S.-A resident of this town, known Joe, the French man. but whose name is Jean Duell, was struck by the up passenger train from Bridgeport at 1O:5O o'clock We'd nesday morning, at a dangerous curve known as Point of Rocks, a mile below this station, and instantly killed. He was walking on the track towards here, when the engine struck him, hurling his body high in the air but clear of the tracks. His neck was broken, but his body showed no other evidence of the blow.
 The engineer did not see him until instant before it was too late. The train was immediately stopped, the train crew picked up the dead body, placed it in the baggage car, and the remains were brought to- the station There was much excitement among the passengers, as the body was carried past the car windows, ard several of the ladies fainted. So far as known the dead man had no relatives in this country. If not claimed by his com patriots in town, he will be buried by the authorities from the undertaking rooms of Honon 6 Brew.

HOUSE is DAMAGED
IN SUNDAY FIRE
j. 3. vanPappelendam Suffers Heavy
Loss-Roof in Flames Before
Fire Was Noticed.

The home of ]. B. yanPappelendam
at Ninth and Leighton streets was
badly damaged by fire which was dis
covered about $50 Sunday afternoon.
The fire originated in the attic from
defective flue. it is supposed, and
the roof was in flames before it was
discovered by neighbors who notified
the members of the household.
The fire was confined principally to
the roof and attic and practically all
of the furniture was carried out. The
house was thoroughly drenched with
water. The loss has been estimated
at more than one thousand dollars.
