Bids on Plumbing.
Two bids were submitted to the
council for installing new plumbing in
the city hall, that of the Idaho Hard
ware & Plumbing company of $3.50 and
that of the Acme company, $406.50. The
lower bid was accepted and Councilman
Eichelberger authorized to have the
work done the total cost of which will
amount to approximately $500.
The proposition of installing a small
building in the rear of the Central fire
station to house the rectifiers for the
new lighting ssytem was discussed and
favored by most of the councilmen who
felt the central station would be a dan
gerous place for the rectifiers. The en-
tire council decided to make an investi-
cation. 1t is estimated that the needed
building would cost about $780,
The council transferred from the
light district fund to the general fund
the sum of $3697.50 and ordered a war
rant drawn for that amount to pay for
the rectihers which were received last
week.

LA PAz DECISION CONFIRMED

The opinion of the commissioner of
the general land office affirming that
of the local office in the case of til
La Paz Mining company has been re-
ceived at the Phoenix land office. The
case involved the correct location of
the line of the Colorado River In
dian reservation The mining com
pany located and partially developed
a mining claim near the river and the
validity of the location was contested
on the grounds that it was within the
limits of the reservation. The action
was Initiated Dec. |, 1912, and a hear
ing was had in the local office and at
Parker. On May 13, 1913, the regis
lister and receiver upheld the claims
of the Indian agent that the location
OF the mining claim was invalid for
the reason that it was within the
boundary of the Indian reservation.
The review Of the case is very ex4
haustive and the opinion sustains tha,
OF the Phoenix office, the only con-
ISOLATION given the mining company
being to admit the good faith exer-
cised by it.

work is completed and filed, which
will also include the estimated cost
of the project,an election will be call

TO START WORK SOON.,

Joe Gilmore, of Cy Sawyer's U. S.
r. S. camp, was in town Friday night
for the first time in three months.
Sawyer's camp has now been trans
fered to the upper Yuma valley, and
it will be stationed on the new recla-
nation service railroad. The survey
will be finished on the right of way
on First street shortly, and the con-
struction work will be begun at once.
This work will involve large
amount of teams and men and will re
suit in considerable boom for Yuma,
besides giving the outside world an
idea of the Importance of the Yuma
project when the government builds
twenty miles of railroad to facili-
tate their work on an enterprise, the
world has an eye on that locality
and realizes it has wonderful posi-
bilities.-Yuma Examiner

TUCSON GETS.
LAND OFFICE
HAYDEN,s BILL PROVIDING LAND
1oFFlcE FOR, SOUTHERN ARi-
IONA, AT TUCSON, PASSES THE
SENATE.
I = a " ~.

Tucson gets a maximum land office.
After weeks of impatient waiting,
while the bill providing for the estab-
lishment of a land office there was
being subjected to examination by
The interior department, which has
jurisdiction over the public domain,
favorable report has been made. 1t
has been found that the land office
business in this state warrants two
two maximum offices. The subse
Guent course of the bill is mere form
ality.
The fact that the land office busi-
ness is sufficient to warrant two land
offices in this state was one of the
minor arguments in favor of the bill
The chief argument, and the argu-
ment that lined up the entire south
ern half OF h state in favor of the
bill was that it would be boon to
hundreds of people in that section of
tions are required to do their land Of
flee business through the Phoenix
office, at great inconvenience and ex-
pense So the news that Tucson will
get land office will be gladly re-
ceived throughout Southern Arizona.
The movement to secure a land of
flee for Tucson was initiated by the
Chamber of Commerce, of that city,
under the administration of Captain
William McDermott, and the influ-
ences that were set at work then are
about to secure the land office. At
that time statistics were gathered by
the Chamber of Commerce which con-
that conditions not only warranted a
land office there, but that the public
convenience required it.
Some time ago, when Congressman
Hayden was being charged in some
quarters with ignoring the claims of
that section of Arizona, he was only

Now that the report has been made,
with backing by Congressman Hay
den, it should be put on the statute
books in short time.
A feature of the news that is of in
terest to the friends of Congressman
Hayden is that it completely refutes
the charge that his attitude toward
the bill has been dilitory
The bill providing for the Tucson
land office has already passed the
senate, and in view of the fact that
conditions in hits state relative to
land office business meet the legal
requirements for the establishment
of two land offices, the passage OF
the bill in the house is mercy a mat
ter of due coure.

RESOLUTIONS ASKING OPENING
OF RESERVATION LANDS.

Whereas, it appears that there are
included within the boundaries of the
Colorado River Indian Reservation, in
the State of Arizona, near Parker in
said state, about one hundred and fiji
ty thousand acres of fertile and ara
BILE lands inexcess of the needs Of the
Indians upon that reservation, and
Whereas, if these excess lands were
excluded from such reservation and
made subject to entry by settlers, cap
ital might be obtained for the con-
struction, maintenance and operation
of proper and adequate irrigation
works TO divert water from the Col
orado river and carry the same to-
such lands for the irrigation and cul-
tivation thereof, as well as to af-
ford reliable and adequate supply
of irrigation water for the lands of
the Indians on said reservation and,
Whereas, the reclamation of lands
in the state from their condition OF
aridity and their consequent settle
ment and improvement directly pro-
notes the best interests OF the peo-
pie of the state, and its more rapid
and substantial development, and
Whereas, it appears that such seq
regation of lands can be made not
only without possible injury to, or
disadvantage of, the Indians on said
reservation, but directly to their ad-
vantage.
Be 1t Therefore Resolved, by the
Phoenix Board of Trade that it favors
any feasible plan which shall have
for it's result the opening of said
lands to actual settlement, improve
ment and cultivation and the con-
struction of the necessary irrigation
works, and we earnestly urge upon
the Hon. Secretary of the Interior and
upon our Senators and representa-
tive in the congress of the United
States that they use their best eff
forts to secure the adoption and eX-
ecution of some plan adequate to-
that purpose.

At the Friday night meeting. the
convention by viva voce vote had
indorsed the Newlands-Broussard
river and harbors bill, now before
congress. This did not please the
visiting executives to any noticeable
extent, they contending that the West
was not sufficiently taken care OF in
the measure. So they planned what
is termed in the vernacular "cat-
hop" Governor Ammons moved at
the morning session that thereafter
all voting be done by states, one vote
each. The irrigationists swallowed
the bait. likewise the hook, line and
sinker. Then Governor Spry moved
to reconsider the Endorsement of the
Newlands bill. This precipitated a
near-battle royal,in which one dele
gate gently but firmly insisted
that Governor Carey, speaking to the
motion to reconsider, had given ut
terance to a falsehood.
The vote to reconsider went
through to 6. The reason assign
ed for this action was that the con-
ference was called solely for the pur-
pose of considering irrigation prob
lens, and that the Newalnds bill did
not come within the suggestions as
1oj hxyf 40 n of
terror.
Most of the expressions of the clos
ing day centered around the belief
that the government should be more
liberal in it's dealing with the set
tiers who go on the arid or irrga-
ted lands; that these hardy pioneers
are entitled to every consideration,
and that when they fail or even par
TALLY fail, Uncle Sam should be very
paternalistic in his attitude, extend
ing the time for proving up,for in
terest payments on any project or for
collecting whatever is coming to him.
Along toward the fag end OF the
proceedings the conference develop
ed into veritable love feast. Every
body thanked everybody else. Secre-
tary Lane was praised for his friend
ship toward the West and his broad
minded craftsmanship in dealing with
irrigation and reclamation projects.
Governor SDry moved that Assistant
Secretary Jones be thanked for his
able manner in handling the conven-
ton, and Secretary Jones in neat
speech thanked the governors for
their speeches and presence. The
men from the interior department
We're thanked for coming to the con-
ference, and the committees were
thanked for their patience and hard
work
Over 400 delegates from the arid
| lands states were present at the
conference Only two from Arizona
responded to the invitation of the
secretary of the interior, H. E. Muir
ply of Phoenix and j.. B. Flanagan
Of Parker. The former was 2 mem
ber Of the committee on reclamation
projects and the latter was a member

jects and cooperation between the
