REPORT 0F COUNTY
 SUPREME EHD5HI
On the Condition of the
 Williams Schools
Mr. F. o. Twitty, Clerk of Williams Trustees, Williams, Arizona.

tlGIh Cl " llItdLIlS | itctcGS,
 Williams, Arizona.
 My dear Mr. Twitty;-
 Having spent the last week visiting and examin- ing the work beirg done in the Williams Public School, I wish to write you of my approval and satis- faction Of the same.
 If our people are to be educated, definite standards of excellence must be demanded of all our schools. Since teachers are of such varying stages of growth and have such widely different problems to meet, the work of the Superintendent Of the School de- mands wisdom and ability. Hay ing found your school management in the hands of a good Supenntend- ent, the work being done by teach ers and pupils was easily brought to my knowledge. By various means this work has been stand ardized and splendid results are being obtained, complying strictly with the Arizona course of study. Monthly examinations are given and the last papers shoU. a marked i'm proYement over those of inc first few months. In all grades most gratifying results are being obtain ed as the outcome of good organiza- ton.
 The High School students have most competent instructors and I believe thoroughly enjoy the work given them. The feeling of good will and splendid amicability ex- emplifed is very manifest.
 The Special teachers t6T00ghout the school have made wonderful progress in their lines. It is very gratifying to find the boys doing their part in the school music and strongly supporting the school chorus, besides doing orchestra and band work with 1Ir. Barnes.
 4 most interesting class visited was that of the girls gymnasium. Aside from the regular work some most fascinating folk dancing, un. der supervision of Miss Chapman, was done
 The good results accomplished and carried on in thls school do not seem to be thrust upon the teachers bpt the result of teachers and Superintendent working togetb- CT, and of the pupils making the best response of which they are capable.

The hoist will be on the ground within two weeks and~the compressor within the month. ] expect to open the books for stock sales next Monday. In line with the conversation we had, if some of your friends in Williams want this stock at twenty-five cents they eau place their orders with you. As you and the other men in Will jams who are now interested know, this is strictly a mining deal, not a stock gamble. We have a very strong organization, board of di- reetors comprised of some of the uooet Dron7inprf men in tha West and our ground is the best prospect iD the QahnaH district We have every reason to believe we will de velop commercial ore within four months and l look for a sensational advance in the value of this stock before the shaft reaches a depth of two hundred feet.

San Francisco May Get
Great Shipbuilding Yards

San Francisco, Feb 2.-San Francis
co may soon be the headquarters for u
great government ship manufacturing
movement according to advices received
from Washington today by Collector of
the Port j. o. Davis.
The project, which has been rumored
for months, was indicated in letter
from E, T. Chamberlain, deputy United
States commissioner of immigration.
In his letter Chamberlain asked that
an investigation of port ship building
facilities be made and forwarded to him
not later than February 20.
He asked for specific information as
to how many ship building works there
are in San Francisco district capable
of handling steel merchant vessels, what
size ships the local yards can handle,
the annual capacity of the ship building
yards.
These questions are taken to indicate
that the governments ship building
plan, which has been a part of its ma
tional program, is to be put into effect.
That San Francisco may be chosen
as the headquarters for the coast
building is confidently expected by
many officials here.

HOT LEMONADE AND
SLEEP STAVE OFF GRIP
Health Commissioner of New York City
Sanctions Common Sense Pre-
ventive Treatment for
Influenza.

How to keep from having the grip
when everyone about you is suffering
from this aggravating disease and you
are beginning to have the symptoms
yourself-this is the question that has
been uppermost in the minds of hun
dreds of thousands during the present
epidemic.
In an attempt to answer it repre-
sentative of the New York Tribune in
terviewed large number of prominent
physicians and submitted to Health
Commissioner Haven Emerson a sum
mary of their advice. The latter put
his official o. X. on the following treat
ment:
Take cathartic.
"Then take a brief hot bath to warm
up the body and start the blood running
freely
"Drink a large bowl or not lemonade
thoroughly and warmly, even to an ex.
ira pillow to protect the head and ears,
and get nine hours sleep.
"Take the greatest care, by dress
ing warmly, not to catch cold in the
morning.
"If the trouble seems to be chiefly in
the throat, wrap the neck in a wet wool.
EN- cloth covered by dry WOODEN
cloth"
The official qualified his recommen-
dation as far as the hot bath part of
the treatment is concerned, saying that
none should do this unless they were
very sure that they would be able to
Keep themselves perfectly warm during
the night and the morning afterward.
"But the hot lemonade, the eathartic
and the warm sleep stand as the official
preventive for the dread disease which
is adding from 10 per cent to 40 per
cent of the weekly death records in
many parts of the country"

POLICE HAVE RIGHT TO
CONFISCATE BOOZE
LADEN SUIT CASES
No Penalty for Bringing In
Liquor Provided II Is Not
For Sale

Sled Wing whose suit eases were TAX
EN- in charge by the Salem police Mon
day night, was not arrested yesterday
as Chief Welsh found, upon investiga
ton, that as long as the man was OIL
the street tnat liquor could be confis
Gated, but no arrest could be made un
less the party bringing in the liquor
entered building Or attempted to
dispose of the cargo of wet goods
When Sled Wing stepped from the
l1:25 Oregon Electric with his suit
cases the police relieved him of his
luggage which was brought to the sta
tiOn and found to contain ID Jugs OF
Chinese wine aud five bottles of what
is supposed to be Chinese gin. 1t ap
pears however, that there is no pen
atty for bringing in to dry territory all
of the liquor that can be carried pro
yided no attempt is made to dispose
of it. If the carrier enters a building
then the building becomes a nuisance
and according to the ruling of Attorney
General Brown the fact that the liquor
is in the building is 'prima facie" evi-
dence that it is for illegal use and the
burden of proof that it is not for ille.
gal use rests upon the owner of the
building and the state is not compelled
to prove that the liquor is for illegal
sale. In other words, the owner of the
liquor is considered guilty of bootleg
ging until he proves himself innocent
which is a reversal of the usual rule.
Under the prohibition laws, accord
ing to District Attorney Ringo, the of
ficers have the right to confiscate any
liquor that is brought into the dry ter.
ritory and then compel the carrier to
prove that he brought it in for mis- own
use. If he brings it in for another
party he is liable to fine up to $500
or three months in Jail If, however
the individual brings in liquor for hi;
own use ne may bring in all he can
carry and the size of the load depends
only upon the physical strength. He
cannot ship it in though as it ther
comes under the two quarts per month
limit.
the case of Sled Wing is the first
ease of confiscation of liquor brought
into dry territory that has come up il
Salem. The liquor is still at the police
station.

Preachers BOndsmen
Accused Of Perjury

Chico, Cal, Feb. Fresh nensa.
tiOns popped today in the case Of Rev.
Madison Slaughter, accused Of miseon.
duct by l5.year.old Gertrude Lamson,
when it developed that 10 of his II
bondsmen may face perjury charges.
Only one of the group is said to be
qualified as a bondsman, while only
four are said to be on the assessment
roll. This development startled the
community anew, for all of the mer
were regarded as "pillarsn of Slaugh
ter's church.
Slaughter was scheduled for arraign
ment this afternoon on the misconduct
indictment, while the girl was TO be ar
raigned on charge of delinquency. She
probably will be held merely as a wit
ness against the minister.
Meanwhile supporters of the pastor
scurried about town to get fresh bonds
as objection was slated to the first
sureties.
