APPROPRIATIONS FOR
 ARIZONA IN INDIAN BILL

Washington, Dec. 16.-The Indian bill, the first appropriation measure reported to the House, has passed that body in record time. The bill carries appropriations amounting to SIG, ,67O, ,00O If which over a million dol lars is to be expended in Arizona. in addition to the usual sums appropri- ated for the support and civilization of the Indians in Arizona, which ann ount to over $200,00O, their education is provided for by special appropria- tions aggregating over $300,000! Of this amount $146,900 is to be expend- ed at the Phoenix Indian School.
 Congressman Hayden was success full in his effort to secure an approp- riation of $1OO,000 to complete the di- version dam above Florence and also obtained 5000 to commence the con- strucfion of the main canal which will carry the water from this dam to the lands belonging to Indians, and white men in Pinal county. His request for $125, 900 to complete another diversion dam near Sacaton was likewise grant ed. This dam will be constructed with a bridge superstructure thus pro- viding a much needed means of cross ing the Gila river. s9S.000 was also appropriated for other Indian irriga- tion enterprises in Arizona.

ASHURST TAXES
 BILL BY FORCE

Washington, D. C.. Dec. 20.--A parli- amentary misplay by one of his friends today upset plans for an i'm mediate vote on Senator Sheppard's District of Columbia prohibition bill and advocates of the measure were after the Christmas holidays for final action.
 The prohibition bill to make the cap ital dry fell into the tolls of a fili- buster late today when Senator Ash urst who favors it. without intention of imperiling a vote, got unanimous consent for consideration of a miscel- laneous land bill. The opponents of the prohibition bill were quick to take advantage of the opportunity to con- tend that it had been displaced before the senate and was supported by a ruling from the chair.
 Withdraws Bill Physically.
 Senator Ashurst then sought to with draw the land bill and did so physi- cally stepping to the desk and putting the document in his pocket.
 Senator Reed of Missouri insisted that such a method of withdrawal of bills was new in parliamentary pro- cedure.
 If men were permitted to dispose of legislation physically applying strong arm methods and grabbing bills out of the possession of the sen ate, said Senator Reed, Legislation business then will resolve itself to grabbing and running. Under these circum stances the man who can grab the most and run the fastest would be the greatest statesman.
 If we are proceeding under Marquis of Queensbury rules, it is time Ne knew it. We may even descend to packing house rules, which 1 Under stand permit using the thumbs and even the feline method of scratching with the finger nails.
 Senator Ashurst declared he was not disturbed by MT Reeds attack.
 As he concluded the Arizona sena- tor walked slowly down the isle waving the bill over his head and re- stored it to the clerks desk.
 "The Indians of Oklahoma may suf- fer, but whiskey will still reign in the national capital" he said.

Pursuant to the order of Judge F. B. Laine of the Superior Court the in- spectors, appointed to count the bal lots in the contest proceedings for the office of Sheriff of Greenlee coun ty, were present at the court house on Saturday morning last for the pur- pose of commencing their duties. The inspectors were as follows: J. c. Gaines, appointed by the contestee; F. A. Thompson, for Contestant, and C. W. Beck for the Court.
 At this time the proceedings were adjourned until Monday morning when the count was taken up. The six smaller precincts including Guth- rie, York, Sheldon, Franklin, Blue and Eagle were counted by noon on Monday and by Tuesday evening the four large precincts were concluded. The inspection progressed rapidly and was completed in much less time than had been anticipated.
 From the canvess it was found that the total number of regular votes,

 BISBEE ACREAGE

BfSBEE, Ariz., Dec. 1S.-What is expected to greatly enlarge the south western part of the famous Bisbee in the matter of mine development, has now been planned by the Arizona-Bisbee Copper com pany, which owns 1900 acres situated southwest of the Copper Queen Com pany's immense acreage in that di- rection.
 The Arizona-Bisbee Copper Com pany is directing it's efforts in a busi- ness like manner to the point where it can start the sinking of a deep shaft to explore the lower limestones, known to be in that region.
 Arizona-Bisbee copper ground is some of the best located in the Bis bee district, and in the opinion of many local geologists, needs only deep mining to prove it's ore values.
 To the north of the property, the Bisbee-West Company, many years ago, sank a shaft matter of 700 ;eet It is called the 'Bisbee-West" shaft and was driven to barren schist. When depth was reached, the com pany drifted north in the same forma- tiOn, and not south across the BlS- bee-West' fault. Geologists maintain that the ore lies adiacent and south of this prominent fault.
 Should the many signs of habitation be taken from Sacramento hill,a huge mass of porphyry, which sticks it's nose out of the Bisbee district and under which is known to be one of the largest ore areas in the entire camp, a replica could be found on Arizona-Bisbee Copper ground. An other hill of porphyry, situated about the same distance from the "Bisbee- Vest fault as the old Sacramento is from the Dividend fault, is found on the Arizona-Bisbee Copper Company's ground.
 According to local officials of the company, the sinking of develop ment shaft will be the first work undertaken, after the road which is now under construction is completed. The plans for the work are being sent rapidly ahead in all directions, and the people of the Bisbee dis trict are expecting to see what the Copper Queen Company and the Vol verine-Arizona Company have prac-

about which there was no doubt in the minds of the inspectors, cast for Slaughter was SS4, and for Cash 761. The number of Slaughter votes laid aside on account of irregularity and upon which the court will rule pro viding there is sufficient grounds for the contest, was "A, while the number laid aside for Cash was 127.
 Giving each candidate his total straight vote would put Slaughter in the lead with 123 majority. Count ing the irregular votes laid aside for each candidate would give Slaughter 908 and Cash SS9, still giving Slaugh- ter lead of 19 votes to the good :
 What action will now be taken by the contestant is not known but from the figures, as they stand it is appar- en that Slaughter will still retain a majority of at least 19 in any case.
 Following is the tabulated list as compiled by the Inspectors and filed with the Court:

RANGER WIRELESS GETS MESSAGES
 FROM AFAR
Antennae of Arizona Rangers Outfit
 Catch Messages from Warships at

Albuquerque, N. M., Dec. 19.- -eWireless communication for trans action of Forest business looks more promising every day." is the statement of L.. V. Slonaker, telephone engineer in the Forest Service, after his return from Arizona to make a detailed in- spection of the wireless apparatus re- gently installed by Ranger Warner on the Apache Forest.
 Ranger Warmers wireless outfit was erected under difficulties because Of slender funds, according to Mr. Slo- maker. The antennae, instead of be- ing mounted on the usual steel tower, are hung from a piece of barbed wire fence strung between two high cliffs. The antennae themselves are suppos- ed to be of brass, but when the brass wire gave out ordinary baling wire was used to complete them. Never theless they work. Messages have been picked up from Sayville, New York; Key West, Florida; Point Lo- ma, California; Vancouver. B. c.; and even from warships at sea. The anparatus and it's installation cost s125 .0O A wire telephone line to con- meet with Clifton, the nearest town, would have cost $3000-00.
 The IS dlIOdQy DO1A6 uoO0 AOA Forest business. A message was re- gently sent to Silver City, via regular telegraph from Clifton, making an ap- pointment with a ranger on the G1la Forest to meet at Alma, N M, for the purpose of receiving grazing ap- plications.
 By supplementing the wireless tele- graph installation with few inexpen sive appliances it is now proposed to change it into a wirless telephony outfit. The advantages of wireless telephony, according to MT. Slonaker are very great It obviates the neces sity of either sender or receiver being familiar with telegraphic codes.
 It is said that the Forest Service is considering trying out modern wire less telephone at the Grand Canyon It is proposed to connect the ranger station near B. Fovar with the ranger station on the Kanab Plateau on the north side. The cost of stringing a regular wire line across the Canyon would be about ten times the cost oi a wireless installation. The atmos pheric conditdions in rough country are supposed to be particularly unfav orable to wireless, and. should it's use prove practicable at the Canyon, it's adaptibility for bridging the present gaps in the forest service telephone system would be considered by Forest officers as practically assured.

punean Edltor Married-


 With the characteristic secretive- ness of editors in general, Editor J. I. Cohn, of the Duncan News, sprung a surprise on his many friends and took unto himself a bride on last Sat urday evening.

Dies at York-

Dies at York;
 On last Saturday, morning at 2 O. clock at York occurred the death of John Vestine at the Schade ranch home. The young man who was 22 years of age had been a sufferer from tuberculosis for several years and came to Arizona about three weeks ago for the benefit of his health, hav- ing been here for the same purpose some three years ago. His condition was not considered alarming, and when Mrs Schade, who had been caring for him, visited his bedside he lay as if apparently asleep, but upon examination it was found that he had passed peacefully away. He was re- lated to MT. and Mrs. K. M. Schade, having married a niece of the former several years ago. MT. and Mrs. Schade left with the remains for Los Angeles, the home of deceased, on Wednesday morning where the funeral services will take place.

The question Is often raised as to
