LEGISLATIVE REPORT IN PAM.
PHLET FORM FORWARDED TO
CAPITAL CITY.
MAKE 3 RECOMMENDATIONS
Establishing = Teachers Home On
Campus; An Annex To Hospital,
and Purchase Of College Farm
Recommended.

Columbus legislative report Of
the Industrial Institute and College In
pamphlet form has been forwarded to
jackson for the use Of the members Of
the legislature to aid them in the con
sideration Of the appropriation bill for
the support and maintenance Of the in
stitution, The report is very exhaust
i've and goes into a detail discussion Of
the colleges needs.
President Whitfield in the course
OF the report makes several very i'm
portant recommendations, n Of
which Is the establishment of a teach
er's home on the campus. He points
out the need Of such an equipment,
saying that 1t is essential to the best
efficiency Of the institution and its
corps of instructors.
1t Is estimated that a building ade.
quate to meet the demands Of the sit
uation would cost approximately $751;
900. Ample room on the campus would
obviate the necessity of purchasing a
site for the building.
The other recommendation is that
Of an annex to the hospital, which has
ceased to be adequate to the needs of
the institution. Mr.. Whitfield recon-
mends the erection of an annex at a
cost of $500. The estimate for the
contemplated annex was made by an
experienced architect, and it Is be-
lieved that a two-stOry section with IL
wards, bath rooms and other neces
sary accessories, car be erected for
the amount asked for.
The president further recommends
the purchase of a college farm on
which could be raised products for the
mess hall and which could be operated
at small cost.
The farm would also furnish the
means by which many worthy girls
could carr money to help defray their
college expenses. This feature is EN-.
phasized by the fact that fully so girls
ARE forced to quit college each year
on account Of lack of e with
which to further their education.
MIR. Whitfield visited Jackson to
personally see that a copy of the pam
phlet report goes into the hands OF
each legislator, and is content to leave
the matter Of providing for the states
| big institution for girls to the intelli
gent consideration of the %lawmaking
body.

STATE SCHOOL FUND
is NOW DISTRIBUTED

PHOENIX, Ariz., Jan. 14.-State
superintendent c. o. Case, yester-
day finished the work of distribut-
ing and apportioning the moneys of
the state school fund among the coun
ties of the state, the sum amounting
to $500 1864 From this amount the
sum of $15,S15.51 is withheld for pay
ing the rentals and other incidental ex-
penses of the school department. Most
of the money is derived from the rem
tai of public lands which have been
set aside for the purpose of raising an
educational fund.
The apportionment is made on the
official school census of 1915 at the
rate of $5.95 for each child between
the ages of and 21 years. The last
census gave the numbers of children
of school age as being 56,471. Of this
number Maricopa leads the state, it's
number of school children being 1883.
Following are the amounts distribut-
ed: Apache, $6,498.52; Cochise, $64,-
484.33; Coconino, $6,913.66; Gila, $21,-
975.75; Graham, $15,479.59; Greenlee,

WIGHTMAN CAN USE
WATER FROM SPRINGS

GLOBE, Ariz., Jan. 13.-Holding that
the use of water from Goodwin springs
on the San Carlos Indian reservation
was in no sense necessary to the OBJ
jects for which the reservation was
created, Judge w. H. Sawtelle of the
United States district court has en-
tered Judgment in favor of Rollo
Wightman, who has been using the
water to irrigate his lands. The de-
cision, which Is considered one of the
most important yet handed down in
Arizona, pertains to the right to use
water from springs on Indian reserva
tions, and lays down the principle that
for the reservation and cannot be used
to irrigate any appreciable portion of
the same, that the water can be useo
outside the reservation.
Action was begun by the government
to prevent Wightman from using wa
ter from the springs, and the case, it is
said, will be taken to the supreme
court of the United States for settle
ment.
In the present case the predecessor
of DR.. Wightman had a water right in
water from springs on land which aft
erwards became part of the San
Carlos Indian reservation. DR.. Wight
man claimed a prior right to the use
Of tlie water fro m the springs, while
the government questioned this right
Wightman's claim was based on the
same theory under which irrigators all
over the west have obtained their wa
ter rights.
According to the old riparian right
theory, the owners of land on which
streams or springs were located, pos
sessed equal rights with owners of
other land on which the stream ran
The western theory of prior water
rights was to entirely break down the
riparian theory and vest the ownership
in a water user, who might be located
miles away from the land on which the
water was located. According to the
western theory, the state owns the
water and the irrigator obtains his
rights from the state. Even the Unit
ed States obtains it's water rights from
the state where it has water rights
in the west.

SHORT COURSE PROVES
MOST PRACTICAL YET

TUCSON, Jan. 13-The verdict of the
farmers who are attending the fourth
annual farmers short course which is
being held at the University of Ari-
IONA, Tucson, under the auspices of
the Agricultural Extension Service is
that they are receiving the most prac
tical instruction that has ever been
given at any short course. special
effort has been made to dispense with
the "hot air." which is so common in
courses of this sort; and in all the lee
lures and demonstrations actual ma
terials are used, and in many cases the
farmers are carrying out the opera
tions themselves. For instance, in
pruning and spraying, the farmers
have been led out to the orchard and
have actually seen the manipulation
of the spraying machinery. In the
dairy section the farmer students have
been busily engaged in operating Bah
cock testers, cream separators, making
butter, cheese, ice cream etc. One of
the most interesting features was the
judging of dairy cows, which was in
dulged in by all those who are taking
this course. Likewise, with the corn
and grain sorghum lectures, the farm
ers have been given score cards and
taught how to score ears of corn and
heads of grain sorghum themselves
One of the most interesting demon
strations which has yet been given was
the demonstration of how to kill and
dress poultry for market The lee
turer told the farmers facts about
killing poultry which they had never
known about before. The greatest in
terest was shown when the demon
strator showed how by the proper
penetration of the brain with pen
knife, all the feathers of the fowl were
loosened so that it could be dry picked
without any injury whatever to the
skin.
Every farmer who is in attendance
swears that next year he will bring
back large number of others with
him to attend the next annual short
course.
The attendance this year is in ex-
cess of previous years. During the
first week nearly 100 have registered,
and it is expected that the second
week will show a greatly increased
registration that will make the at
tendance greater than in any previous
year.

large number of shipments passing
through Maricopa, it is expected that
it will become an important feeding
and shipping point, especially as
with the reclamation of a large tract
here it will be possible to unload
cattle directly from the main line
and put them on alfalfa pasture.
Whyman brothers have recently in
stalled a number of pumping plants
in the Casa Grande district where
they have reclaimed about $500 acres
and also in the Higley district. They
are also interested in similar de-
velopment in the Panhandle district
in Texas. where pumping from a
much greater depth than will be
necessary at Maricopa has proven
successful.

DILLON TELLS HUNT
SHER|Ff'S STORY OF
SEARCH WAS UNTRUE

PHOENIX, Ariz., Jan. 12.-That the
the effect that Sheriff Cash searched
the men doing assessment work at
and knives was absolutely untrue was
the declaration made to the executive
this afternoon by U. S. Marshal Joe
Dillon, who has just returned from
the strike district.
SHERIFF Cash never searched those
men nor attempted to search them,"
declared Marshal Dillon today. 'He
had no authority to interfere with
them in any way, and could not have
he had had any desire to search any
body, there were at least a thousand
strikers he could have disarmed, but
he made no move in that direction
While he did not demand a retrac-
ton from the governor, it is under
stood that Marshal Dillon told the gov
ernor in no uncertain terms, and that
the short and ugly word was used to
describe the published statement over
! the governors signature Marshal
Dillon told the governor that at the
time the men were taken into the dis
trict he took from them whatever
weapons they had, and that these were
returned when they had completed the
work. AS to the offer of five dollars
day for workmen to do assessment
work on the claims of the Detroit Cop
per company Marshal Dillon stated
that he did not know whether such an
offer had been made or not He had
positive knowledge, however, he said
that the men who did the work under
his protection were paid five dollars a
| day for their work. Both Sheriff Cash
and the governor denied that the COM
\ pany had offered the strikers five dol
lars a day to do the work after only
fourteen had applied for work on those
| terms.
The governor said he had nothing t6
say regarding the matter and that he
had taken no action toward obtaining
a correction or retraction from Sheriff
Cash.

WORK BEGINS ON RECLAMATION
OF $4,000 ACRES At MAR|COPA

One of the most important rec
lamation projects ever launched in
Pinal county has just been put under
way at Maricopa by the Whyman
Land and Development company of
Phoenix, which has started work
drilling wells and installing pumping
units on a tract of $4,000 acres lying
just east of the main line of the
Southern Pacific. In addition to the
reclamation and development of the
land, a toWnsite of eighty acres has
been laid out at Maricopa, streets
are being graded, and within thirty
days building operations, it is said,
will be in full swing. Plans for a
new office building for the COM
pany, a new hotel, and number of
store buildings have been drawn up
and work of construction will begin
shortly
Oil burning engines of 14O horse
power each will drive the pumps
which will furnish 4,SO0 gallons of
water per minute at each of the seven
units. These will consist of three
wells connected by tunnels with a
central pit, and will be similar in
plan to the units installed by the
same company in the Higley and
south Chandler districts.
ah,
dependable supply of water from the
underground flow of the Santa Cruz
wash is the statement of r. o. Why
man, president of the company, who
has made extensive engineering in
vestigations of the project Water is
struck at from SS to 81 feet. The
wash cuts diagonally across the tract
of land which the company recently
secured, the deal being made through
Moore and Hayes of Phoenix. The
company plans to divide this land
into tracts of from forty to one
hundred and sixty acres and to offer
same to settlers at from $50 to $65
per acre. Small tracts of five and
ten acres will be laid out close to
Maricopa which it is predicted will
have population Of at least 1900
within year. AS the land is sold
the units will be transferred to the
purchaser who will thus retain con-
troll of the project.
One feature of the project will be
a GAO acre holding pasture for ship
ments of live stock. Owing to the

The question has been raised, how
ever, whether an outlaw union. should
be admitted to the state federation, in
asmuch as the Clifton Morenci- Met

TRUMAN SEES BIG
YEAR FOR STOCKMEN

Prospects for banner year for
the cattlemen of Pinal county and this
entire section of the state were never
better than they have been since the
recent rains, according to County AS
SCISSOR George E. Truman. With the
heavy rains over the desert, and with
plenty of snow in the mountains, he
says, cattle raisers are given absolute
assurance of an abundance of feed for
the coming summer.
"Rain in such abundance spells
success for the cattleman in big
letters" said Assessor Truman re-
Gently, "and with the present pros
poets to go on, cattlemen in Pinal
county are preparing for one Of the
greatest seasons they have ever eX-
perienced. 1t is safe to predict that
next fall will see all records broken
both in quantity and quality of ship
ments.
1.-The rain also means an ample
water supply for the farmers, and
gives them the assurance of plentiful
crops the coming season. The heavy
rainfall at this time of the year has
never failed heretofore to provide suf-
ficient water to mature all crops
that have been planted, and is a
guarantee to the farmers of a large
measure of success in the coming
season"

BLAST ON UNITED STATES
SUBMARINE KILLS a MEN
Ten Others Hurt When Explosion
Wrecks the E-2 in New York
Navy Yard.

New York, Jan. 18.-Four men were
killed and ten others injured, five OF
them dangerously, by an explosion on
Saturday on the submarine E-2 while
the craft was undergoing repairs in
dry dock at the New York navy yard.
One of the men killed was an enlist
ed electrician and the other three
civilian workers. At least three of
the ten now in hospitals are not ex-
pected to live. The names of the dead
follow:
R. r. Seaber, electrician, second
class.
James H. Peck, civilian general
helper, Brooklyn.
J. P. Schultz, civilian machinist,
Brooklyn.
Joseph Logan, civilian general help
er, Brooklyn.
Chief Electrician L. c. Miles may
die as a result of his injuries.
The cause of the explosion has not
been decided The first theory report
ed that it resulted from the ignition
of gases, is discredited by Rear Ad-
miral Nathaniel r. Usher, command
ant of the navy yard.
While unwilling to say so dennltely,
it was inferred from the command
ants remarks that some outside hand
may have been responsible.
