The Three-Cent Fare Bill

Regarding the Scent fare bill Governor Hunt has the following in his message to the state legisla- ture last Monday:
 "At the recent election a Scent fare law, subjected to the referen- dunn provision of the state constitu- ton, was ratified by the people, but by reason of certain possible errors in its language, which form the basis of attacks upon it in the courts, it has thus far been rendered imperative. Corrected in such manner, it is thought, as to meet every requirement, and to be proof against legal attack, a similar bill, with the emergency clause attached, passed one house of the legislature during the late extra session, but was not considered in the other. There is no legitimate reason why this measure, having already been accorded the peoples endorsement should now be speedily and fear lessly enacted into law. Its course is being closely watched"

BAD WRECK ON
 CANYON RAILROAD

A large number of tourists, among whom was Prince Stanislaw Sulkov- ski, of Austria, who is touring America, narrowly escaped death in la serious wreck which occurred Tuesday on tic Grand Canyon rail- road, when the train on which they were riding was derailed about ten miles from the canyon, following q collision with bunch of cattle in a' deep cut.
 The train, in charge of Conductor Smiley, left Grand Canyon for Will jams at 7:50 p.m., and had pro ceeded but a short distance from the canyon, when in rounding q sharp curve in deep cut, hit q bunch of cattle that completely filled the marrow gorge. Before Engineer Tooker was able to bring the train under control the engine had plunged into the frightened cat tie, killing ten or twelve and maim- ing as many more.
 The impact of the collision thres- the engine, tender and baggage car from the rails. Engineer Tooker jumped, escaping with a few cuts and bruises Fireman Perry was caught under the overturned en- zine and his left hand crushed off. Although maimed for life, Perry is thankful he escaped death. for had his hand not been cut off he would have been pinioned under the wreck age and scalded to death by the es- caping steam from the engine boiler. As it was he was painfully scalded. While the passengers were severely shaken, none was injured.
 Traffic on the Grand Canyon line was blocked for some hours by the accident, which was the most se- rious to occur on the line in several years.
 Fireman Perry was brought to where Dr. Melick dressed his injured hand and he was taken to the Santa Fe hospital at Los An geles on No. 9.

REGULAR SHOOT OF
 WILLIAMS GUN CLUB

The second regular shotgun event held last Sunday was replete with caustic remarks and low scores. The heavy wind blowing rushed to meet the saucers of clay, getting on top of them and forcing the birds lower and lower as the shoot pro- gressed, causing great anxiety and nervousness to most of the shooters, lest he misjudge the new angle and miss the whole 25 birds.
 However, Patterson managed to break 20, thereby winning his own medal, given each regular event to the highest actual score. Patter- son also won the handicap prize of a shell pocket, although Reese and Smith gave him a good run in the shootoff.
 Following is the score:

The prevailing high water has at last commenced to subside and better attendance can be expected at the Sedona public school.
 Miss Izora Lay has left for the Lay ranch on the mountain. where she will keep house for her brother and father.
 Frank Derrick, Archibald Fuqua, Ed Murphy and MT. Derrick's two sons have just returned from gath ering cypress cones for seed pur- poses. There is great demand for the cypress seeds.
 Many deer and other wild ami mals have been seen in the near vii cinity of the Cypress ranch. Five deer were seen a quarter of mile from the house last week.
 MT. Erickson, owner of well drilling outfit, has taken up a 160- acre claim in Big Park, six miles from Sedona, and has hauled his big machine up there He is go- ing to bore for artesian water.
 The road crew arrived on the rim Tuesday evening and could go no farther, owing to the mud. The road is passable and for the money they had the work is well done; but narrowness at treacherous places and lack of facilities for passing other vehicles are as much disad- vantage as ever. There remains the crossings, the road from both crossings to the county line, con- bined length of one mile, yet to be done.

WORK SOON TO START
 ON THE COUNTY ROAD

Forest Supervisors Drake and Greene are completing arrangements so that active work may be started before the end of the month in inn proving and repairing the county road between Williams and Flag staff. County Superintendent of Roads Anderson and H. B. Waha, a forest service engineer, drove over the road last week, setting stakes at all points where culverts are to be installed. The installation of cul- verts and ditching for the entire length of the road will be taken up first, followed by some grade work and surfacing. Inasmuch as the road east of Bellemont is most greatly in need of repair, operations will be started at the Flagstaff end.
 Under act of congress, s12,60 has been made available for this work, and with the cooperation of the county the forest service off, cials hope that much can be ac- complished toward putting this most important highway in first class condition.

A large number of men were put to work at the Saginew logging camps this week. The horses, which have been on pasture near Glendale since the shutdown, ar rived on Thursday, and it is ex- pected the first train of logs will be brought in today. The mill will be running next week full blast. A large number of men who have been idle since the mill and camps closed down will find steady work, and this will mean good times for our business men for many months.
 MT. and Mrs. Ed Kirwin, Mrs. K. w. Williams and Mrs. F. w. visited the sheep shearing camp. at Fairview Wednesday afternoon.
 Prof. T. H. Cureton has just com pleted four fine residences on his va cant lots in the west end of town and will at once proceed to erect four more four and five room houses on his lots near the school house. Go it, professor; all the houses and many more are needed in Williams.

 ''The northern country is at last looming into its own," is the way
 Harben, who is live wire, put it this morning. "We had about five | feet of snow this winter and the re- suit is splendid spring conditions for the farmers and stockmen. Ma ture has laid out our country for harmony between the sheepmen and cattlemen and the farmers. Tbe| best pasture and water is back in the hills and the valleys are ideal for grains of all kinds, potatoes and most of the hardy vegetables, espe- cially cabbages. The snow put the land in fine shape for spring blow ing and the rains in summer areI sufficient to bring abundant crops. Plenty of water could be stored for irrigation in the canyons, but thus far the farmers have depended on the rainfall.
 Thousands of acres are being taken up by newcomers. Last week man named J. D. Matz, a prac- tical farmer from West Virginia, brought in colony of half dozen families, mostly his own relatives He is but one of many. They To- cated about twelve miles southeast of Williams.

Williams is go- I ing ahead at a rapid rate as re- suit. We need a fine hotel there

 for hunting and fishing, and Will
