STATE MEET IF
 TRADE BOARDS
Mesa Commercial Club Calls Together Representatives of Commercial Bodies - State Commissions and Supervisors

To promote acquaintance between the various parts of the state, and the resources of each section, to inaugu- rate a movement for the patronage of the summer and winter resorts of Ari- zona, to promulgate a knowledge of places of natural and historical inter- est throughout the state to promote a movement for good roads in order that the natural attractions of the state may be made accessible, to develop concerted action on the part of the commercial and trade bodies of the state of Arizona, in the advertising of the resources of the state and to or ganize a state board of trade for the carrying out of the foregoing purposes, are the purposes of a meeting of repre- sentatives of the boards of trade of the state, called at Mesa for December and by the Mesa commercial club
 Every precinct, town and city in the state, having an organized commercial club or board of trade, is entitled to representation in the convention. M J. Dougherty, president of the Mesa commercial club said yesterday:
 Every day makes more evident the regretable lack of acquaintance be- tween the widely divergent and separ- ated sections Of the state of Arizona, and the need of becoming acquainted, in order that the proper pride in the wonderful resources of Arizona may become known to it's citizens and in turn to her sister states.
 Arizona is rich in places of natural wonders and attractions only a few of which, such as the Grand Canyon and the Terrified Forest are known outside tlPe confines of their immediate loca- ton; and no state in the union pre- sents a richer field for the archeOlogist or the historian.
 Every summer thousands of dollars are spent by the people of Arizona in going to summer resorts of far less beauty, interest of restfullness, than the many places to be found within their own state, while visitors and tour ists from the east are lured to winter resorts, that cannot be compared with those the new state has to offer in this line.
 Tn order that places of historical and natural interest may be made access able, roads must be opened; and the
Arizona republican., 1913-11-26

road question will be discussed by the convention and talks made upon that subject by well known road men of the state.
 "PracticaIly all the organizations in the state realize the advantage of eXhib iting at land shows and similar events and of maintaining a building of ex- hibits and a bureau of immigration with a permanent secretary in the inn migration center such as Los Angeles, San Francisco, Denver St. Louis, Chi cagO, Fl PasO and other cities, to en- courage immigration to the state of Arizona, whose greatest need is peo- pie, but the cost attendant upon ex- hibiting at such events and of main taining such q building of exhibits and a secretary, prevents the various or ganizations from individually or sep arately carrying out their desires in that regard. Whereas, by the com bined efforts of the trade organizations of the state such exhibits and bureaus can be made and maintained for the benefit of the entire state and at a propOrtionate cost, that will permit each separate organization to partici- pate therein and realize the benefits to be derived from such enterprise.
 The Mesa commercial club in calling the convention, has taken the initia- tive in a movement that should have been made long ago, and the sole mo- tive of the club is the successful boost ing and advertising of the state of Arizona. It is one of the oldest com mercial organizations of the state with a very efficient organization and one that has established an enviable repu- tation for boosting ability, and is well fitted to inaugurate and carry out the work of organizing the proposed state chamber of commerce.
 It has been thought advisable to make the basis of representation one representative from each organized commercial club, board of trade or chamber of commerce representing a population of one thousand or less. and in addition one for each thousand or fractional part of a thousand popula- ton in excess of one thousand popula- tion. as based on the last federal cen sus"
 The board of supervisors of each of the counties has been asked to send representatives, as well as the com mercial organizations; also the Arizo- na Good Roads association, the state fair commission. the exposition com missions, the fish and game commits sion, the agriculture and horticulture commission, the educational board and the Arizona automobile association.
 Literature has been mailed to the different organizations of the state by the Mesa commercial club, setting forth tentatively the purposes of the pro- posed organization and tentative con- stitution and bylaws prepared for con sideration and discussion by the con- Vention.
 The assistance of every commercial club, board of trade and chamber of commerce in the state has been solicit ed and promised in making the con vention a success and it is expected that more than two hundred delegates will be present.
 The convention has been called for two day session. in order that the pur-

HAYDEN, Ariz., November 25.- The site of the new church to be erected soon will be changed by the board of stewards from the site first selected at the cornor of Fourth street and Hayden avenue to some other lot ill that vicinity. On going into the details of construction, it was learned that it would be a very costly propo sition to put in a good foundation on the lot selected, and as it is es- sential that the most possible be got ten for the money in this case, the proposed change was taken up.
 A party of about a dozen young people of Ray have promised to be over for the big dance given by Hay denites at the Hutton hall on the eve of Thanksgiving and if weather is favorable they will be here in sev- eral autos to add to the gaiety of the occasion.

4 DISPLAY OF ART
 AT BIG CURIO STORE
Hand Painted China Especially De-
 sirable for Christmas Gifts.

Speaking of Christmas gifts for this is the time of year to be speaking of them, naturally suggests Balke's Curio store where there are more than a thousand kinds of Christmas sits, but just now attention will be especially directed to only one kind the hand painted China. There is no ether collection like it anywhere in the west.
 There is not an article in it but would be most acceptable to any wo- man, for all women just "dote' on hand painted China. Many women are collectors of China and to such, piece of it would be worth more than it's weight in gold
 Here is the story of the China at Balke's big curio store. It was se- lected by MT Bake on his latest trip to Europe a little more than year ago. He visited Limoges, France, where the Haviland factories are and where all the best French China is manufactured. He made a selection of the best, consisting of plates, cups ard saucers, vases and many other articles.
 This collection was shipped by him to Dresden where the art of painting China has been practced for cen turies. He had with him a lot of photographs of Salt River Valley and Phoenix scenes and these were trans ferre1 to the China. The painting is aN hand work and it is true to nature in color and design, to the minutest detail
 A part of the stock was received at the Big Curio store last spring. but the greater part of it has just arrived and been opened for inspec- ton. All are invited to call and see The price will be as much of surprise as it's beauty. for it costs 10 more than the plain China. In his collection, MT. Bake has gone be yond the limits of the merely com mercial; the commonplace has no part in this excellent owing.-Advt.

DORR CARRIED HIS
SLAIN VICTIM
IN AUTO
Daylight But Nobody Paid Any
Attention
TRIAL NEARS ITS END
Dorr Went On Stand in His Own
Behalf and Claimed Self
Defense

Salem, Mass, Feb. 26.-For half an
hour after he had killed George E.
Marsh, an aged manufacturer of
Lynn, william A. Dorr drove up and
down the Lynn boulevard with the
body propped up beside him in the
single seat of his runabout. Other
automobiles passed him, but, though
it was light, he attracted no atten-
ton.
This Is part OF the remarkable
story that Dorr told today to jury
murder.
The state alleges that Marsh was
murdered in order that the defendant
might profit indirectly through a
trust fund which he though would go
to his aunt, Miss Orpha Marsh, with
whom he lived in Stockton, Cali, up
on the death of Marsh. Counsel for
the defendant set up self-denfense
and Dorr was put on the stand to tell
his story.
For four and a half hours, Dorr
was under examination or cross-ex-
animation. He told in detail of his
life in Stockton where he said he
was a member of church choir. His
aunt's property was involved, he said
and he believed that it was being
mismanaged. He could get no salts
faction from George E. Crane who
looked after the estate and he decid-
ed TO come East and see privately
George Z. Marsh, his aunt's uncle.
Arriving in Lynn he obtained
lodging near Marsh's home and made
the acquaintance of the old man. One
day, he took Marsh out for a drive
in his automobile. Marsh made an
insinuating remark about Miss Marsh
asking Dorr if he was really the wo-
mans nephew. They quarreled and
the defendant started to leave the
car, Marsh tried to stop him and
was shot in the scuffie that followed.
On cross-examination, Dorr told the
story practically as he had first re-
lated IT,

COUNTY GAME WARoENs
Terms Expire March and New Az
pointments Rumored.

Rumor has 1t that there are to be
changes among the county game war
dens. 1t appears that Commissioner
Titcomb made his appointments at
the beginning of the present year to
run until March /, only.
The county warden holds a respon-
sible position in that the commission
er depends largely upon him to make
recommendations as to appointment
of deputy wardens in various towns,
and the efficiency with which the
laws are enforced in any county and
as to whether the money appropriate
ed to that purpose is expended ad-
vantageously depends largely upon
having every county warden a man
who is of the strictest integrity and
commands the respect of the COM
munity in which he operates. The
position requires tact, good judgment
and a bulldog grip.
The kind OF man needed to make
a success in this work is one who is
more interested in the cause of con-
serving the fish and game than in the
few dollars which he may expect to
get out of it from the state in com
pensation for services rendered
