GRAND CANYON ITEMS|

Thomas Moran and daughter are here on their usual visit, as guests at the Fl Tovar. Forty-two years ago this now world famous artist made his first visit to the
 Canyon in company with Major Powell and from point now known as "Dutton Point" sketched the outlines and gained the impes- sions that resulted in that famous
 "Moran" painting that was pur- chased by the Government and was placed in the west wing of the Sen- ate Chamber at Washington D c. The trip was made from Salt Lake Utah. Dutton Point is on Powell Plateau just opposite Bass Camp.
 Levi F. Noble arrived here on Sunday and on Monday morning left for Bass Camp to begin an ex tended Geological survey for the purpose of mapping the faults and flexures of the strata in the igne- ous section of the Kaibab division of the Grand Canyon. The work will require at least two years to complete and will add much val uable information never before available in the physical history of this great gash in the earth. MT. Noble is graduate of Yale College and has spent two years here in his study of Canyon Geol- ogy.
 Mir. Johnson the hermit of Cat aract Creek arrived here from Pres colt or Tuesday in company with San Francisco Capitalists and left for his camp near Mooney Falls. It is their intention to determine the feasibility of generating elec- trical power from the falls of Cata- ract Creek. This power would be in great demand on the north side of the Canyon where it is proposed to market a billion feet of lumber and build 200 miles of railroad. It would also largely facilitate the development of the copper and asbestos mines in this region.
 Dr. J. William White who fer 30 years has held the chair as professor of surgery in the Univers- ity of Pennsylvania is here with his wife for short stay.
 The Colorado River has now begun its annual flood stage which usually reaches the high mark about the middle of June. Owing to the heavy bodies of snow in the west slopes of the Rocky Mountain range we may look for a record mark in the gauge if the present warm weather prevails in those mountain ranges.
 The proposed turning over of the entire west end of Coconino County to the stock men under a leasing system has become matter for serious consideration among the new homestead-rs in this section and to man they are opposed to it. More than hundred families could find homes in these valleys and several new locators are ex- pected here soon to make select ions. The plan of Secretary Lane of $40 acres of grazing land as a limit meets with general approv- al here.

R. R. Grant Lands

Any Grazing bill or reserve of public lands which does not consid- CT the homesteader and his equita- ble rights in land and grazing, should receive no consideration Any Grazing bill or Reserve which is so broad as to includ R. R. Grant Lands to be included in its provision, should be a source of alarm to New Mexico, Arizona and Southern California, as the Santa Fe owns the alternate sections in Northern Arizona, eighty miles wide and 400 miles long, or pract- ically ten million acres which, included in a Government Reserve, places these land grant owners in a position to dictate terms to the Government to gain control. Thls feat is accomplished by demanding and getting Lien Land Scrip for 25 cents-desert land.

CONSERVATION OF
 PUBLIC UTILITIES
(Contiuned from last week) To the William News:
Cattle and Grazing Fees

Great discrimine tion in favor of the cattle interests:- A grazing fee of 20 cents per head is exacted, as against 2 cents per head for the same period for sheep Now, con- cidering in grazing capacity that one COW is equivalent to eight sheep, it readily appears the COW pays on- y one-third the price charged on sheep. In ad dition to this, the cattle are allowed to be turned loose on the border of the reserve to d.ift onto the reserve with no account taken of them, there being 2,OO0 miles of Forest border in Arizona, which accounts for the present overstocking, and also ac counts for the ready endorsement of the Forest Service by the Cow fraternity: ''It pays"
 A Doctored Printing Press
 It is lamentable fact that the public has to depend on private owned printing presses Design ing schemers, through the hired press, have brought about very largely the present conditions nam- ed herein. These great reforms in conservation exist only on paper. Chief Forester Graves and Assist ant Potter have launched at regular intervals, laborious articles enum- era.ing the wonderful benefits accruing to the people through their wise, judici us management of these public resources. The Government itselfis a mere myth in the hands of the people bidding for prolongation of high salaries. Printing matter is cheap when. Un- cle Sam pays for the music, and such as clerk Potter, having failed in conducting both COW and sheep ranches in Arizona in its palmy days, now are a success in manag- ing the Government, being perfect ly safe from liability, as clerks nev- Ter go broke.

was apparently surprised in the act of
attempting to break into the house.
After he had knocked McLear uncon-

the melee. but managed to get away
with the money.
Harry McLear returned home late
Saturday night from a visit in Cam

saw a light flash near the barn and
heard the dog barking. He went back
to investigate, but found nothing. As
he came back to the front of the

Residents of North Tenth and
North Eleventh streets, near E street
were greatly excited Saturday night
by a fusillade of revolver shots. A
few belated pedestrians on North
Tenth street, Rugged close in the shad-
ows of sheltering buildings. and few
bold householders, disturbed in their
sleep, who stuck timid heads out of
upstairs windows, saw one man hotly
pursuing another, firing every few
PAGES. which produced marvellous
speed on the part of the pursued and
resulted in his escape.
The quarry in this exciting chase
was an unknown man who had insult
ed women near the underwear factory
in most depraved manner The
scream of one woman brought Officer
Menke to the scene, whereupon the
man started to run. When he failed
to heed the officers command to halt,
Menke opened fire on him, not with
the intention of injuring him, but to
brighten him into submission He
frightened the man thoroughly but his
fright impelled him to make desper-
ate efforts to escape.

FENCE PLANT BURNS

NEW PARIS, O., June 22.-The
Hollinger Fence Co., Greenville, Ohio,
suffered great damage Sunday after
noon by fire which broke out in the
third story. The building is Of brick
with a slate roof and was hard place
to fight fire Greenville's new auto
fire truck and the laddies did fine work
and kept the blaze from spreading
The factory had not been In operation
for three weeks and it is thought that
a spark from passing d. & w. engine
started the blaze since the building is
old and the floors are Oil-soaked The
amount of the loss is not known but
is considerable. Since Greenville's wa
ter supply is short on account OF so lit
tie rain, much apprehension was felt
when the fire alarm was sounded.
