Another Clothesline Robbed

Mrs. Emerson, south Fifth St., probably had not heard of Mrs. Morehead's loss of $25 worth of clothes from her line Saturday night else she would not have left hers out Monday night. Some thievish prowler took everything from her line on that night and left no trace. Her loss is heavy and includes two new bedspreads and much clothing of good quality.

SIDNEY P. OSBORN, Secretary of State.
A TRIBUTE TO MIR. FORD

In an interview with Thos. A. Edison, published in->Col- Hers Weekly in the issue dated Dec. 2, MT. Edison among oth- CT things, says of MT. Ford, " "Henry's critics tell him that for him to pay wages of five, six and seven dollars a day is suicidal, but I tell you that Henry is no fool. He knows what he is doing. He is get ting his work done at the low est wages in the UnitedStates. l am paying my men three dollars, and he pays seven, yet l believe he is getting more for his money than I am. The reas- on for this is that he multiplies the effectiveness of his mems work by the use of machinery. Very few people realize what possibilities lie in the invention of new machinery to solve the problems of labor. Henry knows. He is a natural born mechanic if there ever was one."

NO HURRY

While the representatives of the Coconino Water Develop ment and Stock Company inti- mated that Williams would have to act quickly to get wa ter from the San Francisco Mountains project there is, the News feels sure, nothing in such intimation. This Con- pany has water to sell. The water is largely undeveloped, but it looks reasonable from the facts presented to the Will Hams Investigating committee, that the supply may be unlim- ited by development. MT. Spencer claimed 100000 gal Ions and more each year as the possible output of the project. The figures of the company's engineer indicate that the pos sible supply of water is much larger than MT. Spencer has conservatively put it. Be that as it may, the company will have water to sell after north ern Arizona has been supplied, that is, all that portion of northern Arizona which may be put under the company's pipes.
 There should be no unneces- sary delay in securing good wa ter for Williams but there need be no haste in dealing with the development company. They have water to sell and custom CTS will be just as welcome a little later as now.

THE MARSHAL BROKE
 UP THE PARTY

Marshal Bobby Burns re- ports that he broke up a very interesting party last Satur- day night near the Town jail about the hour of 12. A crowd of Williams toughs who would, doubtless, claim to be genuine Americans, were engaged in roughing it with a bunch of Mexicans and were getting the worst of it. The marshal put one of the Ameri- cans in jail and Judge Sine fin ed him $500 for drunkenness Monday morning. The Mex jeans quickly vanished.

Henry Ford is a mighty use- full man. Having contributed to the downfall of the brewers in Michigan, he would save the stockholders from ruin by con- verting the breweries into the plants needed for distilling de- natured alcohol for motive power. Henry says it will pay and what Henry says on the subject goes.

A PROCLAMATION
 OF THANKSGIVING
Executive Department State
 of Arizona

Since that memorable day in Americas history when ouran- cestors foregathered on the bleak shores of New England and there proclaimed their gratitude in unison to Almigh- ty God for all those blessings providentially bestowed upon them, it has been the custom of the American people to set a. part annually a day for the rendering of thanks to the Gre ator in fitting recognition of di- vine. mercies and benefactions. This custom, universally ap- proved, is properly perpetual ed in the State of Arizona and observance thereof is com mended by law.
 It is particularly seemly that Arizona's citizens should cele- brate, in the present year, the annual day of Thanksgiving, for harvests have been bounti- full, and the pursuits of indus try have been fruitful beyond compare. In other ways, also, than those of merely material benefit the people of the state have been abundantly and pro- videntially favored.
 NOW, THEREFORE, I. GEO. w. P. HUNT, Governor of Arizona, by virtue of the au- thority in me vested, do pro- claim and set aside Thursday, November the 3Oth, 1916, as Thanksgiving Day. It is ur- gently recommended that on the day thus set apart, all the people of Arizona shall unite in giving reverent thanks to God for the peace and prosper ity which abide within our State, and that faith in theun- deriving purpose of divinity which portends the ultimate salvation of humanity.
 IN WITNESS WHEREOF,
 I have hereunto set
 my hand and caused
 thegreat seal of the
 State of Arizona to SEAL be affixed.
 Done at Phoenix,
 the Capital, this 24th
 day of November, A.

WILLIAMS ID HAVE
 ANTOHER NEWSPAPER
Clifford Klock Formerly in the Employ of the News, Plans to Launch upon Sea of-Jour- nalism in new publication "the Williams Times''

On December 1st, it is plan ned, the journalistic sky shall be frightened by the birth of a new star-"The Williams Times," Clifford Klock pub fisher and owner. The puubli- cation will be a four page weekly devoted to advancing the interests of Williams and of Northern Arizona.
 MT Klock has been actively engaged for the last month in making preparations for this new venture. He purchased an extra job press, a paper cut ter, type, case racks and, other printing materials from the News office, and &o these has since added a new Diamond press, stock of paper and ad- ditional type, rule and other necessary articles. With this equipment as a nucleus, MT. Klock expects to continue ad- ding to his plant, out of the profits of his business, until he has thoroly modern office in ! every particular. He is locat- ed in the room at the rear of the Sultana pool hall. The. Times is to issue on Fridays.
 MT. Klock learned the print CTS trade in the News office where he has worked off and on for the last two and a half years. He has lately come by a little capital and decided to put it to work at once. After taking survey of the newspa- per field of Northern Arizona, MT. Klock decided that the best opening now available lies in Williams. He feels that there is an element in this town which has failed to secure rep resentation in the News, and he proposes to give them a voice. Satisfied that there is room for two papers in the town, he ayers that the future of the Williams Times appears very promising.
 MT. Klock has a good gram mar school education, and has continued his studies since quitting school. As a boy he showed great talent in a liter ary way, especially in the production of short stories.
 While his style proved too vigorous for the conservative magazines to which he sub- mitted his fiction, it should be only strong and convincing in the newspaper field. His num- erous friends are not at all sur- prised to see him enthusiasti- cally leaping into the journal istic arena.
 MT. Klock is editor-in-chief and general manager of this new publication, and he will be ably assisted by his wife, Mrs. Nellie Riemer Klock, and by his brother John who has come up from Winslow to assist him. The News joins with his many friends in wishing him a bril- liant career.
