 ton he said, paid nobody but law
 yers: he did not believe that litiga- ton would be. necessary: the bill was
 fair: the land commissioner was fair
 and the plan for creating boards of appraisers was fair. There were only two contingencies, he thought, out of
 which litigation could arise. One
 would be that of a lessee who de sired the appraisment of his improve ments to be so great as to absorb the value of the land occupied him. Such a lessee would almost certainly get into the courts and he would be beaten: on the other hand, if a board of appraisers should deny him his rights the courts would be ical!ed upon to secure them to him
 The matter of water for irrigation was raised. MT. Orme said that about 230O acres of the school lands, those to which water had been ap- piled prior to 1883 would be taken care of but it was important to the later school lands that they should go into private ownership.

 The situation had been somewhat complicated, the adjutant general said. by the fact that the men were not the members of any union. and were prac- tically unorganized. They had chosen committee to treat with the company < further complication was caused by some racial feeling, which had entered into tine strike.

LIBERTY BELL STARTS

will be at the rear. This is a spe- ciaHy constructed flat car, with an iron railing at the sides and ends American flags will wave from staffs at each corner and there will be other decorations in American colors.
 The councilmanic committee in charge of the journey announced that in hanging the bell, the crack in it will be cn the right hand side of the car as il journeys west.
 Even cities traversed in the night will get a glimpse of the relic, q system of illumination having been devised that will throw a blaze of light on the bell as it passes through in the darkness.
 Shock absorbers have been install ed on the flat car to keep the bell from being jolted. The train crews will be specially picked for their carefulness in starting and stopping trains. The speed limits across the continent will not be less than IS miles an hour nor more than 8 miles. The schedule will be rigidly observed so that crowds may not be kept waiting beyond the time ap pointed for the train to go through their communities.
 Another absolute rule the committee has made is that the bell will not be taken from the car for the purpose of parading it through the streets. Many municipalities have been ad- vised to build movable platforms the height of the flat car with an in cline Tt each end so that children may go up one incline. pass the bell touch it if they care to. and then
  end of the platform Where these platforms are provided, the railing on one side of the car will be re moved
 During stops. booklets containing the history of the bell. cards with a picture of the relic and buttons also containing a picture of the bell and the American flag. will be dis tributed to children. It will take hundreds of thousands of these souv enirs to supply the demand. To the governors and mayors. the history of the bell in small bound volume will be presented. Governors have been invited to journey with the bell through their respective states.
 There will be no official souvenirs of the journey except those distrib- uted free by the escorting commit tee. The committee also refused to make any concessions to moving picture concerns. virtually every such enterprise in the country having applied for the privilege of sending representatives on the trip. The committee, however purchased a spe- cial moving picture machine for its own use. Pictures will be taken through the journey and films will be furnished to public schools with out expense. In short the City Coun- cil has placed a strict ban upon commercialism in connection with the trip.
 The train will arrive in San Fran cisco Friday night, July 16. and Saturday. July IT, will be Liberty Bell Day at the Exposition. Early
Arizona republican., 1915-07-04

in the morning the relic will be con Veyed to it's place in the Pennsyl- Nania building on the Exposition grounds where exercises will be held
 The bell will leave san Francisco in November and will return by the Southern route. through Los Ange- les. san Diego. Arizona and Texas The details of the return trip have not yet been completed. but it is virtually certain that the specia train will go through St. Louis In Cianapolis and Cincinnati
 After each return of the bel there has been a movement started to prevent the precious metal from leaving the city again. The cracl in it has been slowly eXtendig and there has been fear that in it's jour ney the bell might split in two. Op- position to its leaving the city or this trip was bitter but the City Coun- cil voted that it belonged to the American people and that opportun- ities to view it should be given whenever possible.
 Sending the bell to the westerr coast will cost the city of Philadel- phia S75,0 900. The escorting commit tee of twenty councilmen vii pay their own expenses.
 The four policemen who will con stantly guard the bell were specially picked for their fitness. Each is more than six feet in height. The head of the police department in des- lgnating the four men called them to the front and impressed upon them the following don'ts:
 Don't taste any intoxicating liquor while away from Philadelphia.
 Don't lose your temper at any time.
 Don't fail to uphold the reputa- ton of Philadelphia policeman for courtesy.
 Don't fail to answer every ques- ton however foolish.
 Don't fail to at once read the his tory of the bell so that you can answer questions accurately.
 The first time the bell left Phil adelpnia was under different cir cumstances from those which caus- ed the later pilgrimages from the Cradle of Liberty" That was when the British army occupied the city of Philadelphia in 1777-177S and George Washington with his Continental army spent the winter at Valley Forge. As the British ap- preached the city in September it was hurriedly taken to Allentown, Pa, and was kept in the Zion Luth- eran Church of that place until June. TITS. when it was returned to Philadelphia. Its subsequent jour news were:

Alaskan lines no more could be paid for
it than the appraised value.
The board of engineers which is now
preparing its report will make no formal
recommendation as to the route to be fol-
lowed by the government line. All of
the facts and surveys will be submitted,
and. under the law. President Wilson will

The woman, who was sixty-six years

in the habit Of bringing to her apart

street. 1t was also her habit to leave
a rear window open at night SO that
her feline friends could wander into
her rooms and feel at home.
When Heuerman entered his apart
ments yesterday at daybreak he missed
his wife, who usually had breakfast
prepared. AS he entered her bedroom
he was attacked by several of the half
starved cats. which flew at him in "a
