Apache Cauntu Court Case

The hearing to establish the rightful heirs to the Curt Crone- meyer estate occupied much time and many witnesses were intro duced at the hearing of the case in the Apache county superior court last week. Two bright children, a girl and a boy. named respectively Che Che Bah and Hoskey Ye CheeN Nea, were in- troduced in court in company with their Indian mothers and a strong case was made out to prove that they were the chill dren of Cronemeyer. Their cause was ably champloned by U. s. Attorney Thos. A. Flynn and his assistant, Gerald Jones, while the Cronemeyer helrs in Germany were represented by Hon. Isaac Earth. Peter Par
  quet. Indian superintendent at Fort Defiance. was appointed guardian of the children by the court. Among the prominent witnesses appearing were An tonic Apache, a cultured Indian gentleman of Los Angeles who had been assoclated with Mr. Cronemever in a business way. and Mrs. H. L. Thysing of Hol- brook. both of whom appeared in behalf of the children. The final decision in this matter will not be known for 60 days. St. Johns Observer.

Masonic Officers Installed

MoSOfltC OHtCSIS AItSLoltS0
 A public installation of the newly elected officers of the local Masonic lodge was held in the lodge room last Monday evening. Because of the fact that many of the members of the lodge are confined to their homes by sick ness the attendance was not so large as it would otherwise have been. only about thirty people being present, including the fam flies of the members. After the ceremonies of installation an elaborate banquet was served.
 Past master L. D. DiveIbess acted as installing officer and the following were indncted in to office for the ensuing year: L. C. Henning, w. M.; w. B. Woods, S. w: J. H. Scorse, J. w; Alphonse Blum, secretary. W. R. Scorse, treasurer.

Total. s63. GOO. co

At this tune the matter has 90 far progressed that the Board of Supervisors have called an cleo tion on the date of January Il, 1916, as to whether bonds shall be sold for the amount of S63. : 900. co and the proceeds used for the construction of the bridges asked for. These bonds are to run for the term of twenty-five years, none of the principal to be paid during the first ten years, interest at five per cent per annum.
 The assessed valuation of pro- Derty in this county is approxi- mately now $S,OOO, GOO. %. The interest on the $63, GOO. co bonds will be $3. 100. co annually for the first ten years, which would re- quire an assessment of 4 cents on each S1OO.O0 of property to meet. (our present road tax is 23 cents). This does not take in- to consideration the increase in property llable for as- sessment. which, computing the same ratio which has prevailed for the past ten years. would at the end of ten years require less than l cent tax on the hundred dollars. When the first payment o1 the principal of the bonds be- came due an assessment of l cent would likewise be sufficient. However. the Board saw fit to incorporate a wise proYiso, ma ing a 8 cents annual tax on each one hundred dollars of property for sinking fund to pay the principal of the bonds when due. This will provide $2. 400 co an- nnally if the taxable valuation remained the same as at present, which at the end of the first ten years will amount to SPA, 600. % plus interest accumu- lated; but with the pro rata in- crease in taxable val uation this will provide a sum of $50. OOO.OO plus interest, or en- ough to pay all the bond indebt- edness at the end of ten years. By careful study of the fore going estimates it will be seen that little burden will be placed upon the taxpayers. so small in

deed, as to be almost negligible. The benefit to the county at large by the construction of the bridg- es is something that can only be appreciated by comparing with the necessity of having them. The location of the different bridges has been produced spon- taneously by the needs of the people of the county and the travelling public, and local jea- Iosy should not prevent the broad feeling of bonefit to the county at large.
 In voting at the coming cleo tion it should be borne in mlnd that the property. tax qualiica- ton requires that each voter (male or femaie) must have paid property tax Tn his or her own name. It IS probably not too late to hand in your assessment and pay your tax.
 This explanation IS submitted in answer to many inquires re-. lative to the coming election and the matters involved, and if any of them are not clearly explained this office will be glad to answer personally any questions.

Occasionally events occur 1T the lives of people, even in the lives of country newspapermen and their families, that cause them exceptional pleasure. Such an event occurred to the editor of The News and his wife last Sunday evening when they were dinner guests at the home of Judge and Mrs. D. J. Thomas. Other guests were Mir. and Mrs. c. H. Brown and Attorney c. H. Jordan.
 The dinner would have de lighted the palate of an epieure; none other than an adept in the culinary art could have planned and prepared 1t. Starting with oyster cocktails and soup, con tinuing through the course of roast goose and vegetables. and ending with mince pie and coffee. the menu was the work of an artist.
 Mrs. Thomas was assisted in serving dinner and entertaining her guests by her daughter Rachel, a charming young school girl.

The dance given by the ladies of the Relief Society at the Pas time theater Tuesday night was a decided success in every parti- cuIar. One hundred tickets were sold. At II o'clock lunch was served; it consisted of cocoa, coffee. sandwiches, pickles, etc, and the supply was unlimited. A real good time was enjoyed by everybody. and the ladies of the society wish to thank all for their liberal patronage and wish all a Happy New Year. The use of the theater was donated by MT. Lathrop. and part of the music was furnished free, hence a nice profit was realized by the society.
 Real winter weather has pre- vailed in this section since last Sunday afternoon when snow be- gan falling. The storm contin- ued several hours and the ground was covered with snow to a depth of about 4 inches on the level. In the mountains to the north and south the fall of snow was much heavier. During the storm the mercury took a drop and for several days it seemed to be trying to find the zero mark. As yet it has not succeeded, but it may do so before long.

ReldtiDe to the Coming
 Bridge Bond Election

The lack of bridges at some points in the county has in the past proven costly to the people lving near those points and is yearly growing more costly. Early in the present year se- veral petitions for bridges were filed and presented to the Board of Supervisors. and it was then suggested that bond issue was the only practicable method of providing funds to meet these demands. This suggestion met with approval, and the county attorney and county engineer were requested to prepare the data required. This was com piled with and in December bridge petitions had been legally flied and estimates made as fol- lows:

POLLARD ON REFERENDUM
Believes the Law Good. in that It
Removes from Politics Questions
Of Moral Nature.
TO MEET HERE WITH FARMERS
FROM a staff corrcsnondentl

tFrom a STAFF Cores QondentD
LINCOLN. Nov. 2.-Cspecial)-E. NJ.
Pollard Of Nehawka is very well Satisfied
with the reception the people are giving
his candidacy FOR the republican nomina-
ton for governor.
Mr. Pollard was In Lincoln last night
and left today for his home in Cass
county and this week will attend the
meeting OF the National Farmers con-
gross. which will be- held In Omaha.
where he will take an active part in the
session.
Il was very well pleased with the re-
suit OF my trip" said Mr. Pollard Il
visited Grand Island. Red Cloud and sew
eral other points. and ] find that my
candidacy is looked upon very favorably
especially by the business men Ia those
towns. They appear to like the stand
have taken on the questions which the
voters will have q chance to vote upon
at the next election and tell me they arc
with me on that proposition.
When the initiative and referendum
law was passed by the Legislature one OF
the strong points made by those who de-
sired it, enactment into law was that Il
would take questions like those OF a moral
nature out OF politics. II would give the
people Of the state chance to pass upon
them solely upon their merits and give
them a chance 20 vote for men upon their
fitness as future lawmakers or officials,
without these questions influencing the
vote. At the time the law was passed IN
the 1911 session the law covered this very
proposition, reading
All propositions submitted In pursu.
ance hereof shall be submitted In a nom
partisan manner and without any indica-
ton or suggestion on the ballot that
they have been approved or endorsed by
any political party or organization
Tho act OF itself shows that II was
passed with tho idea that the submission
Of any proposition to the people should
stand on itH own merits and that the
voter should not he influenced In any
way by any other thing. II was passed
with the idea that It would relieve the
candidate from having to bother with
any question which tho people themselves
were deciding by their votes and was
simply an effort 10 get results direct from
the people, leaving the candidates them
selves TO stand entirely upon their fit
ness for tho office they were aspiring TO
be elected 60.
while am not afraid TO take n stand
on any OF the questions which may come
up, 7 feel that any effort 60 bring these
issues into the campaign Of any candl-
date for office simply kills the effect OF
the initiative and referendum idea as ex-
pressed in the law when Il was passed
ana handieaps the voter IN his selection
of the men lie would like TO vote for. II
the law was n good law when II was
passed. II Is Htii good law. and It's
ideas should be carried out"
