BANQUET AT THE A. C.

Friday evening a number of
the citizens of Winslow gathered
at the A. C. Cafe to celebrate
the opening of the Cafe with a
delicious banquet, which was
served skillfully and consisted of
eight courses. Speeches were
made during the evening Ly
prominent citizens, Attornt y

the wonderful growth of VIII :

old-time story, and to some it
seems impossible that Winslow
has grown from a section house
to town of five thousand with
homes that are to be admired all
over the state and which rival
any town of this size. Mrs. j.

story which was appreciated by
all with it's witty ending. l..

GAS FRANCHISE
DISCUSSED FREELY
At a Meeting in the Town
Hall TUESDAY, Night by the
Commercial Club the
Proposition Was
Weighed

At a special meeting in the
town hall Tuesday evening the
advisability of granting fran
chise to MesSrs. Lang and
Pattillo was discu ssed pro and
con. The hall was we'll filled by
representative citizens who des-
ired to get an understanding,
whether the granting of such a
franchise would be advantageous
| to Winslow, and as to the reli-
ability Of Messrs Lang and
Pattillo.
1t seemed to be the general
impression that Winslow would
be greatly benefited by the
granting of such a franchise,
drawn up along the lines that it
is whereby the town is thoroughly
protected from losses incidental
to the erection and maintenance
of such a plant.
An article in the franchise
giving the town the privilege Of
of purchasing the plant at the
expiration of five years, the
purchase price not to exceed ten
per cent in addition to the cost
of erecting the plant, laying the
pipes. installing the meters etc.,
practically eliminates all chances
of loss that might arise in the
experimental stages of a muni-
cipally owned plant, as by that
time the success or failure of the
venture will be assured.
In regard to the cost of using
gas as a fuel, the graduating
scale on which the sale of it will
be based, does not seem prohibi-
tive. The first 1000 Gu. feet will
cost $500, the second SITS ar d
the third 81. SO, and an additional
20 per cent discount where pay
ments are made before the tenth
Of the month. This brings TIE
price down to 81. 40 per 1000 CT.
feet where three or more thol
sand feet are used a month.
Messrs. Lang and Pattillo sta
ted that it was their intention to
erect and operate the plant them
selves, and that the proper funds
were available for such a purpose
should the franchise be granted.
The granting of the franchise,
however, is in the hands of TIE
voters of Winslow, and on Jun
5th it is for them to say whether
a gas plant is a valuable asset to
the city or not.

KLE|ND|ENST INVESTS

J. E. Kleindienst bough t the
garage east of the postoffice
Monday from w. G. Hunter to-
gether with all the accessories
and tools and one new Buick
machine. Mr.. Kleindienst will
conduct the business hereafter
under the name of the Old Trails
Garage.
The same day he bought the
house, lot and furniture owned
by Mrs. Lyons on Kinsley ave.
No wonder he had no time for
electioneering that day. How
ever, Winslow is more in need OF
property rustlers than it is of
vote rustlers.

W|NSLOW WINS
FROM GALLUP
Baseball Team Scores Another
Victory---Will Meet Needles
Today and Tomorrow

Well, the Gallup baseball team
has come and left again, but
this time they did not depart
with game to their credit as
they did last April They came
down fully confident of beating
Winslow; however they found
that the Winslow baseball team
is on the map to stay.
Winslow now has the percent
age of TIA, having won five out
OF seven this year. They have
beaten every team they have
played against, having lost one
to Gallup and one to Needles. We
showed last Sunday that we have
a better team than Gallup; watch
what we do to Needles on Satur-
day and Sunday.
The feature of Sundays game
was the home run by Earl Beltz,
Winslow's left fielder. In the
first inning, Chas. AriziIla, first
man up, famed, then Fay,
Smith and Baughman each got
on bases, filling them. Mr.. Beltz
walked to bat with the bases full
and only one out and cleaned
them with a home run.
Kline appeared in Winslow
uniform for the first time this
season. He caught good game,
but did not come up to his stand
ard with the stick.
Fay, our short stop, played a
good game also, accepting every
thing coming his way. His per-
feet fielding Of a fly ball back of
second-base was especially good.
He also hit Heyman, Gallup's
pitcher, for a good clean three
bagger.
Arizilla played his usual good
game around the third corner.
Dutch" Hebert laid down a
beautiful bunt in the eighth,
advancing Morand to third; they
then pulled off a double steal.
This brilliant playing amazed the
Gallup bunch beyond measure.
The final outcome of the game
was: Winslow ID, Gallup 10.
Everybody come out to see the
Needles bunch play us on Satur-
day and Sunday afternoons.
Games called at 2:30 p. NJ.
Needles has a mighty fine bunch
of good looking fellows playing
with them.

BIRTHDAY PARTY

Mrs. A. Y. Moore entertained
a few friends Wednesday even

guests invited. At a late hour

sisting of ice cream, cake, fruits,
candies and nuts.

The results of the election held
in Winslow, Monday to select
officers who will preside over the
destinies of the town for the
next two years provided ample
material for discussion and com
ment by the candidates them
selves as we'll as their followers
during the past week. The u.s.
ual members of the Il told you
SOS" were in evidence and the
prognosticators whose predict
tions did not jibe with actual
results were kept busy in assign
ing plausible reasons for their
failure to make a better guess.
The primary election brought
out 664 votes and it seemed like
a safe bet that with eleven hun
dred and some voters registered
since then there would be a much
larger vote cast at the election.
But, as the uncertainties of
politics are often demonstrated,
the vote at the finals showed
ffty-eight less votes cast than
were polled at the primaries.
Just what caused this falling
off is a matter of conjecture on
which opinion is divided. A fair
presumption would be that thir-
teen candidates who were elimi-
mated from the contest at the
primaries would be largely ac
countable for the smaller vote
cast at the election.
Chief interest centered in the
Marshalship, for which C. M.
Bledsoe and Fred Dunham con-
| tended.
At the PRIMARIES Dunham ran
! twelve votes ahead of Bledsoe in
a six handed contest and the
dopesters have been busy figur-
ing out how the two survivors
profit by the vote cast for the
discarded candidates and the
material increase of electors as
shown by the registration. Opin-
ion was general that the race for
this office would be exceedingly
close. Over half of the ballots
were counted before much day.
light could be discerned between
the contestants, but after that
Dunham begin to leave his op-
ponent and came through with
the comfortable majority of 63.
The new marshal is we'll and
favorably known in Winslow and
the capabilities he will bring to
his office will go a long way in
recounciling the friends of
Bledsoe to the will Of the ma
| jority.
w. J. Grocer, whose formid-
able showing at the primaries
resulted in the withdrawal of op-
position in the finals came in

Stoddard, Daze and Williams
finishedin the same relative places
they held in the primary. Beck
dropped from first to fourth
position with a falling off of 20
votes and Bly, took the lead with
an increase of 80 votes. Calm
went into secend place with a
gain of 81 and Gillard to third
place with 13 more than he had
at the primaries. Beck appears
to be the only elected councilman
who failed to hold his primary
vote.
The fickleness Of politics was
exemplifed by the harsh ire at
ment accorded to our present
mayor F. T. LaPrade, He was
exalted into Office of mayor by
virtue of receiving the highest
number of votes two years ago.
In the ordinary course of events
it would be presumed that he
would be reelected to the coun-
Gil at least even though deposed
as mayor. But as the fourteenth
man in the primary race a
material decline in his stock was
foreboded and in the finals there
was no showing of ary improve
ment in his position. Our old
friend F'erd can comfort himself
with the reflection that he has at
all times been conscientious and
faithful in the discharge Of
public duty and that the honors
of Office are inadequate compen-
