Writing under the heading, "A Mis-
take" a correspondent of The Arizona
Republican last evening called atten-
ton to the failure of the paper to prop
erly credit activity at the polls on Sat
urday to all of those who worked The
letter, which is signed "A Voter" is
interestingly as follows
1T was not the activity of Colonel
Frederick Douglas Gardiner in bring
ing out the colored population to vote
for the selling of the school property,
but it was the kindness of Perry
Payne, who gave his services and car
to the interested parents of the col
ored children, who appeared at the
polls, hoping that if the property was
sold they might get some Of the many
things they needed in the school for
their children"

Veteran Ranch
Where Settlers
Fought is Sold

J. o. Power has just purchased
one of the historic properties of the
Salt River valley, the place where
many years ago the pioneer settlers
and the friendly Pima and Maricopa
Indians banded together to stave
off the hostile Apaches. Mr.. Power
has bought the so-caIled Clark
ranch near lehi and will take pos
session of this property at once. 1t
is one of the earliest settled spots
in the entire valley.
In 1871 water was taken from the
river near what is now known as
the Clark ranch by Bob Carley. His
was pioneer irrigation project OF
rather crude sort and for many
years the ditch he ran from the
river to the land was known after
the man who dug it. In time, how
ever, the name was changed to that
of the Wallace ditch, making it one
of the original prior right bitches
in the valley. CarIey, Mexicans and
the friendly indians often had
lively time when the Apaches hit
the trail and it was at this ranch
that they used to assemble for
mutual protection to repei invaders.

ADMISSION DAY
IS FEBRUARY A

With war clouds lowering on the
horizon. Governor Campbell yesterday
issued his proclamation for Admission
Day, naming February IA as a legal
holiday and calling upon the people
Of the state to pause and honor the
natal day of the stats, that their child
rem and the stranger within the gates,
may be inspired with pride, loyalty and
devotion for her further moral. physi-
cal and spiritual growth in the sister
hood of the United States"
BY the time Admission Day arrives,
the trend of events may be such that
the people will forget all about its be-
ing the states birthday, but in order
that the people at the present time may
know that there is such a day, its rea-
son and meaning. the proclamation Of
the governor in full is given as fol-
lows:
In conformity with Paragraph 1913.
Title XIX. Civil Code. Revised Statues
of Arizona, 1913. |, Thomas L. Camp
bell, governor of Arizona, by virtue
of the authority in me vested by law,
do hereby proclaim Wednesday, Feb
ruary 14th, 1917, as a legal holiday the
same being the fifth anniversary OF the
admission of Arizona into the union OF
states.
And 60 earnestly recommend that.
in commemoration Of this day, all citi-
zens shall unite IN exercises which
shall be appropriate. Arizona is just
entering the most prosperous epoch IN
ner history and it is but fitting that
grateful citizenship take pause and
honor the natal day of their state, that
their children. and the stranger within
their gates, may be inspired with pride,
loyalty and devotion for her further
moral, physical and spiritual growth
in the sisterhood of the United States

CHILD TERRIBLY
ABUSED BY BOYS

Two white boys, aged IS, twin broth
ers, were brought TO the county jail last
night by a deputy marshal Of Mesa,
charged with abusing and seriously in
juring a 3-year-old girl. The two boys
had been living with the parents Of the
little girl and were left in charge Of
the house last night while the parents
We're away. When the parents re-
turned they noticed that the child was
acting strangely. but never dreamed of
the terrible treatment to which she
had been subjected. One of the boys
had left the house. but the other re-
manned.
When it came time to put the little
girl to bed, her terrible condition was
discovered. DR.. Nelson was hurriedly
called and at once disclosed the whole
matter. The boys were quickly iound
ed up and brought to the county Jail
before a crowd of men could find out
where they were Talk of violence to
the lads was heard, and it was thought
best to remove them to Phoenix at
once.
When brought 20 the Jail at II o'clock
neither of the boys would talk. They
seemed to be perfectly at ease.

JOHN H. HOLT, Is YEARS OLD,
IS MURDERED On VACANT LOT
NEAR MAIN STREET IN MESA
STE WART HAS
BUSY EVENING

Last evening was very busy por-
ton of the IL hours which Motorcycle
Policeman Stewart spends on duty.
Along about II o'clock, Stewart was
seen going south on Central avenue,
proudly heading a procession of one
auto, taken in tow for failure TO observe
the DINNER ordinance. Stewart arrived
at the corner of Adams street, stopped
his one machine parade, held up his
hand, and in an instant he had two
machines travelling in his wake.
When he arrived at the corner of
Central and Washington, he was quite
proud of himself, and figured that any
man who can head a parade of two up
o-date high-c automobiles, is in
class by himself. But there was still
more to happen.
AS Stewards parade reached the GEN.
ter of the town, another unlucky auto
scutted around the corner. and straight
into Stewards privately conducted
side show. Another victim, and the
last seen of Stewart his parade had
grown so large, that it was necessary
for hin, to head, flank ard rear guard
his captives all at the same time.

MIKE RETURNS
To STATE HOUSE

Mike. the state house squirrel has
returned. For the past ten days Mike
has been absent. His absence was
noted too. for if there is one popular
attache of the state house it is Mike.
He is everyones friend, knows all the
regulars at the capitol from the gov
ernor down, and is in the habit OF
playing no favOrites in picking his
companions.
Foii.wing Mikes return. there was
general grieving around the building.
Mike has evidently been away to the
war. 1t is apparent from the general
appearance of his exterior that he has
come into contact with some swiftly
moving projectile, which served to re-
move his left fore le~ at the shoulder.
Mike now looks like battered veteran
of trench warfare. In spite of the fact
that Mike has had a misadventure, he
is as spry as ever. He looks little
wan around the eyes, and his tail
doesn't affect its usual saucy arch, but
when it comes to climbing trees or
hopping up on window siils to see what
is going on inside the building he is
lust as quick as he ever was.
Caretaker Keene Of the state house
grounds, said yesterday that he had
remarked Mikes disappearance, but
thought that he was making little
trip out on Mcdowell road to see TO-
mer Governor Hunt. Kee1e thought
nothing of it, as Nike is as well known
for ten blocks around the capitol as he
is on the grounds. He has his regular
rounds to make. and turns Up at stated
intervals to look things over. He is a
warm friend of Keen's fox terrier, the
two Of them playing together by the
hour.
Keene is of the opinion that Mike
met up with some Young boy equipped
with a gun, who took him for an ordi
nary squirrel and shot at him with
disastrous results. Everyone is much
worked up over Mikes mutilation and
it bodies rather i'll for the youngster
who wanders into the capitol grounds
with a gun in his hands.

AN OBSTACLE TO PEACE

1t is to be doubted whether England
really would consent to such a re-
versal of her traditional policy as to
permit the car to gain control OF
Constantinople and the straits. The
old fear Of Russia as a commercial
and naval rival is still strong in the
British mind, and nothing but the
greater fear of a German victory
would cause England to assent to the
Russian claims. Russia holds the key
to the situation. and it is all a ques-
ton of which side can make the more
tempting offer. England, France Bel
GUM, Italy, Germany, Austria and
Turkey might come to satisfactory
terms tomorrow, but Russia stands as
the solid obstacle to Germany and a
menace to the allies.-San Francisco
