wheat crop is considerably off, it be
ing more than 100000, 900 bushels

mate is correct, by more than 270,-
100000 bushels, which means a loss
OF forty cents each to the farmer
Apples, peaches, hay and sweet pota-

and potatoes show an increase as

it out this way: There amt no

PREPARING FOR BIG AUTO
RUN TO W|NSLOW JULY 8

A meeting of the guarantors of the
big Chautauqua meet to be held here
July 20-26, was held at the court
house last Monday evening and was
attended by nearly all that had guar
anteed the weeks entertainment.
Chairman Thorpe was well pleased
with the results so far obtained,
though thought there should be more
boosting done now as the time of the
Chautauqua draws near. At the pres
ent time 275 season tickets had been
sold and many more spoken for. The
committee is in hopes of having at
least 500 sold before the day it opens.
Some guarantors seem to have
misunderstood that they would have
to buy tickets the same as all others,
thinking it was up to them to make
good the guarantee, taking up the un-
sold tickets up to the amount they
guaranteed; if all and more of the
tickets were sold, as it looks they
would be, the guarantors would have
no tickets to get into the show on
themselves, so it behoves them to get
tickets they will need now.
A big auto run will be made to
Winslow on July 9th, under the
direction of Edgar Hash, chairman Of
the advertising committee advertising
the Chautauqua.
A big float is to be arranged for by
the ladies for the 4th of July parade,
advertising the Chautauqua.
The matter of excursion rates and
special trains from adjoining towns
will be taken up by Mayor o. Fl. John,
who was appointed committee of
one for that purpose. There is little
doubt but fare of one and one-half
will be granted and special trains for
special days, if sufficient number Of
passengers is guaranteed the railroad.
1t is hoped that the big tent will be
located for the week on the north side
of the court house grounds, though
it will be necessary TO secure the
sanction of the board Of supervisors
at their next meeting, before the
question is defnately settled

BIG HOTEL PA0JECT
RECEIVES new EMPETUS

1t would appear from present indi-
cations that the new 100000 hotel
proposed for Flagstaff, was at least
getting good start along the road
to success.
A meeting of about twenty promi-
nent business men was held Wednes-
day evening at the Office of c. b. Will
son for the purpose of talking over
the project and ascertaining facts and
figures and deciding on some dehnate
plan Of procedure in case they were
favorable to the scheme.
Mr.. Coxhead, the San Francisco ar
chitect, Jack Kennedy his local part
ner, were present to explain the
plans and specifications OF the build
ing he had outlined for the purpose.
The building he made plans for is
beauty, containing 100 rooms, with
every convenience known to the up to
date, modern hotel. The building
would occupy space of 15Oxl5O feet,
a quarter of block, built OF re-en-
forced concrete, finished with special
brick; absolutely fire proof. The
building would contain a dining
room of ample capacity, a banquet
room, dance floor, commodious lob
by with fire places and electric eleva-
tors. Nothing was omitted from the
plans for the big hotel in the tentat-
i've arrangement.
Mr.. C. B. Wilson was made chair
man Of the meeting and Mr.. l.. F.
Verkamp secretary. The following
committee of ten was appointed to go
further into the matter and secure
the necessary articles of incorporation
for the development company: David
Babbitt, T. A. Slattery, John Francis,
w. Fl. Switzer, John Clark, c. B. Will
son, o. H. John, L. F. Verkamp, W.
G.. Dickinson and John D. Guthrie.
Mr.. A. w. Bikker who was instru-
mental in bringing about the organi-
zation by his vigorous efforts in in
teresting so many local people in the
project said: at is not question so
much of the people locally subscribing
tie amount Of money necessary; their
help is needed in making the case
plain to people that such a hotel is
necessary, that it it is needed as all
know, for the betterment and growth
of Flagstaff. We must be at stand
still until we have proper means OF
welcoming the stranger at our gates
and caring for him as he wants to be
cared for. We have more natural ad-
vantages that any other city in the
world and all we need is a place to
conveniently accommodate that great
class of pleasure seekers who will go
only where they can get the very best
Of accommodations. We have all else,
why not hotel? There will be but
little trouble in raising the amount
needed, but it should he raised in
great part in Flagstaff; many outsid-
ers who are conversant with condi-
tions here are more than willing to
take good sized block of the stock
in the venture"
The committee appointed will take
prompt action in the matter and re-
port results at an early date.
