Toilets for Trolley Cars

In the hearing before the same COM
mittee on an act introduced by Rep.
Lorenzo T. Brown of Auburn to COM
pei electric railroad lines to furnish
toilets on all cars carrying passen-
gers 10 miles or more, Mr.. Brown was
the only one who appeared to favor
the bill. He made a speech pointing
to several instances where passengers
on electric lines ride from 10 to so
miles. without toilet facilities, and said
he believed the provision of those was
a necessity. something that the people
had a right to demand, and was sur
prised that they had not been fur
nished before. He declared that he
believed the Board Of Health should
have taken up the matter, if it was
within their province. We are preach
ing sanitary conditions and We are
preaching against tuberculosis. 1t
seems to me We should do this much"
said Mr.. Brown.
When asked if he had any witnesses
Mr.. Brown said several had said they
would speak on it. but they were not
present. He said he had heard it was
impossible to do anything against the
corporations. 4 tell you, this thing
has dried up wonderfully within the
last two or three days" he said.
VIM. NJ. Bradley appeared repre-
senting the Cumberland Co. Power &
Light Co. and the l. A. & ". St Ry-
He spoke of the impracticability Of
providing toilets on open cars, or IN
narrow closed cars, and Of running
cars So provided through the streets.
All lines he said we're amply provided
at terminals. and at points between.

found an intoierable nuisance and re-
moved. as did also Geo. W. Bowie,

elements that in their contemplation
are staggering! Actually men have
assembled together in solemn judg-
ment upon the question of the differ
ences between fair wages and living
wages! AS well try to sit in judg-
ment on the law Of gravitation! Isn't
it fact as fixed as natural law that
the price of every article of COM
merCe is determined by the ancient
and respectable law of supply and de-
mand, and doesn't competition be-
tween those who supply have effect of
reducing the price to the cost of pro-
dUctiOn? And doesn't the labOrer,s
in selling his labor in competition,
realize it's full price? And men in
this twentieth century are assuming
the colossal gall to try to monkey
with this law! AS well attempt to
help the sun to rise!

to have more sense and this law
worked as smooth as oil in those

OLD EWES NET S6 EACH
Arizona FlOckmaster Clears
 $6,00 On Band of 1000

Cleariug approximately S6,0OO on a bunch of 1000 head of old ewes between October of last year and July 1, just nine months, is a record perhaps never before equal led on this class of sheep. In Oct ober last, G. H. Daggs of Williams, Ariz., offered for sale this string of 1000 ewes at $3. 50 per head. Fail ing to get bid, he bred them, and they lambed in February, raising a lamb crop of about 11S per cent.
 The ewes were ranged on extra choice grass in the Salt river valley. The first of April they were shear ed and the wool brought 25 cents per pound. The clip averaged eight lbs. to the head, making the the wool bring $2 for each one of the ewes. On June IA MT. Daggs made his first shipment of lambs to the Kansas City market. Two more shipments followed, including a consignment 1, $50 head sold here Tuesday of this week. Of the en- tire crop of lambs, 75 per cent sold in Kansas City netted $6.05 per head. The balance sold at home brought a net price of $5. 50 each. On July 1 MT. Daggs sold at home all his ewes at one straight price, $5 per head.
 ''In computing the net price l received of the lambs shipped to Kansas City," MT. Daggs said, 'T deducted the freight and other charges, and I also figured out the expense of wintering and shearing the ewes. Included in these items were the wages paid to herders and the cost of shearing, which is 13 cents per head. All of this amounted to 1.50 per head on the ewes. Deducting this from what the lambs and wool brought, I have left clear more than $6 for each eve. By adding what the ewes brought, $5 each, I have $11, 1,00O for the 1000 head of ewes which I offered to sell last October for $3, 500. -''Drovers Telegram

 TRAPSH0OTERS CUP

By breaking 113 out of possible 125 last Sunday the Williams Gun Club won the championship of Northern Arizona, and incidentally a handsome loving cup. Holbrook contested the right way, up to the last event, but after learning the score of the local men, conceded the cup to Williams.
 It was grand race the Holbrook boys claim, that if it was not for the sand and wind that blew all the way from Williams to blind their eye sight they sure would have won. This cup is to be competed for each year until one club wins it three years in succession. Fol lowing are the scores of the differ

AT THE SuLTANA

The Williams theatre going public will be pleased to learn that on next Tuesday night will be given the side splitting comedy What Happened to Jones" Such comedy would be welcome: atany time but will be particular ly welcome after the series of stirring, gripping drama specials that have just been given at the Sultana. It is a scream from start to finish.
 On Thursday night the people of Williams will have an oppor- tunity to see the biggest popular hit of the year, in New York-a play that was seen by 100, 900 people in one day at ten New York Theatres. It is hardly necessary to mention the title, 'Life's Shop Window. It is delicate but truthful visualization of the novel and play that was the talk of two continents.

CAMP FIRE GIRLS
 REPORT BIG TIME

The Camp Fire Girls, brown and hearty, returned from their en- campment, last Friday. They re- port the best time ever. The sunshine and fresh air gave every one of them a glowing tan, and the camp fire seasoned with pine need- les, chips. ants and other. forest appetizers stimulated their appeti- tes to such an extent that it was difficult to keep them supplied with food while bathing and open air exercises developed and hardened their muscles. As they rumbled back in s. o. Miller's spring wagon generously contributed for their use, they looked like healthy lot indeed.
 Every day of the encampment saw generous meals provided, but on Thursday the board was heaped yet higher by cakes, pies, ice cream and other delicacies sent out by parents and friends from town. On the evening of the same day, a large party of young folks accom- panied by number of the parents, visited the camp, taking with them feast of good things to eat. A most delightful evening was spent.
 1 The excitement of the camp was enhanced by the visit of a num- Der of tramps, three on Thursday | alone. Two of the three mentioned were colored-whether by nature or by some leftover makeup of the Gate City Minstrels, we are un- able to say. At any rate the girls thot their hearts looked black and upon Miss Peet's request several of the 1hTs rom town remained over night in the office of guards.
 Friday was day of feasting and preparing to return to town. One memorable event of the day was the extinguish1ng of forest fire, accidently started by someone. This the girls accomplished, unaid- ed.
 Miss Peet and the girls, and the girls parents, wish to thank the scouts for the use of their tents, and s. O. Miller for his generosity in supplying conveyance, with team and driver, to take the party both to and from the camp. All look forward to a repetition of the de- lightful event.

MRS. GAMMAGE'S
 RECITAL APPRECIATED

A small but appreciative aud fence heard Mrs. Gradine Gam mage in her high class literary recital Monday night.
 Mrs. Gammage prefaced her readings with some timely re- marks on the necessity of keep ing a high standard in literature and cultivating a taste, when necessary, for the higher and better things in art and literature making ourselves study the good things in literature until a clear understanding of them inspires great love for them.
 The first half of the program was rendition of scenes from the great Passion Play, the last part Harold the last of f>theSaxon Kings. Both were given in a manner which proved Mrs. Gam mage master in her line of work. Such programs as these could they be heard by teachers and pupils of our public schools would no doubt soon bring about a desire for the greater and bet ter things in literature.
 Mrs. Gammage' who has been the house guest of Mrs. Luther Slower left Wednesday for Phoe- nix declaring this to be the most delightful summer climate in the whole country.
