CONFESSES HE PUT
POISON IN FLOUR

ST. JOHNS, Ariz., March 16.-Con-
fession of the fact that he placed
strychnine in the flour at the "22'
ranch, just over the line in Socorro
county, N. NJ has been made by Ones
imo Chavez, who thereby poisoned his
brother law and two other en-
ployes of the ranch. Chaves freely
confessed to officers here that he put
poison in the flour in order to kill
Mariana Mestas, from whom he had
stolen some horses. 1t appears that
Mestas captured the thief and recov-
erred one horse ana obtained indem-
nifty for the other In revenge Chavez
slipped into the camp and put poison
in the flour. Antonio Chavez, broth
erin-law of the poisoner, chanced to
be guest at the camp that evening,
and died a few minutes later Mestas
and Perez, two others who ate Of the
poisoned bread, are expected to re-
cover. Chavez has been taken to So
corro, N. M, for trial.

|. c. c. RULING
IS IMPORTANT

PHOENIX, Ariz., March 16.-That
the recent decision of the interstate
commerce commission in the matter of
eliminating water competition in the
construction of transcontinental rates
is the most important decision of that
body in years SO far as Arizona is con-
cerned, is the declaration of Chairman
F. A. Jones Of the Arizona corporation
commission. The case originated in
Phoenix nine years ago, when the
Maricopa county commercial club filed
complaint against the transcontinental
railroads serving the city, charging
discrimination and unjust charges. The
first case was filed by Jones acting as
secretary of the commercial club, and
was followed shortly by the Spokane
and Reno cases. The case has been
before the interstate commerce ocm-
mission a number of times in the fed
eral courts including the supreme court
of the United States and in congress.
'It is one of the biggest things that
ever happened for Arizona" said
Chairman Jones today in discussing
the decision. "It means probably an
entire readjustment of the rate sched-
ule to the coast terminals along the
very lines we have been urging"

To TAKE OVER THE
ROOSEVELT PLANT
Water Users of Salt River Valley to
Act on Proposal of Sec
retary Lane

PHOENIX, Ariz., March 16-The
Salt River Valley Water Users asso-
citation is taking active steps toward
early action on the proposal made by
Secretary Lane of the department Of
the interior that the project be turned
over to the association at the earliest
possible date. An election will be held
within the next thirty days for the
purpose of approving the proposed
agreement, whereby the water users
themselves will take over adminisrta-
ton of the project, and keep same in
repair in addition to paying for the
cost in annual installments as fixed in
the agreement with the government.
Secretary Lane has agreed to reduc-
ton in the cost by the deduction of
$382.4OS.63 or reduction of the cost
per acre from $50 to $56. Power now
being developed by the plants at the
Roosevelt dam and by smaller units
will be turned over to the water users,
and the revenue derived therefrom will
be used in paying the cost. 1t is esti-
mated that the revenue from power
sales for the next four years will be
sufficient to meet the charges which
must be paid by the water users After
the first four. years the payments in
crease from two per cent to four per
cent

the failure to permit of the sale of
numbers of well known household rem
edies that command universal respect
as well as the possibility of making it
an infraction of the law to deal in flaw
oring extracts, was seen, and Senator
Hall of Maricopa offered the amend
ment to the bill curing that defect.
Under the provision of the bill as
amended by the senate the amend
ments having been concurred in by the
house, it will now be possible for drug
gists to continue their business with
out fear of molestation from over zeal
Gus peace officers. Under the bill as
it was flavoring extracts for my lady's
kitchen, toilet articles tor milady.s
dressing room, medicines for everyday
use could be inhibited.
This was the only bill that was of a
nature calculated to effect an import
ant business other than the particular
traffic at which it was aimed. Under
it's provisions the sale of alcoholic bev-
erages is absolutely prohibited, but
beverages are practically defined by
stating those things which are not pro-
hibited.
The general disposition with regard
to the legislature is to say it was a
good session, it didn't do any harm.

Several measures succeeded in get
ting through one house only to be lost
in the shuttle in the other. This was
true of a measure prohibiting the sale
of wood (methyD alcohol on the
ground that it's use is injurious to pub
lie health. The bill passed the SEN
ate all right but failed in the house.
The same fate was meted out to bill
prohibiting false and misleading ad-
yertising. This same bill is the one
generally advocated through the coun-
try by the advertising clubs, another
bill prohibiting liquor advertisements
was unable to get through the rush. 1t
it generally conceded by members of
both houses that the bill prohibiting
the sale of tobacco and tobacco pro-
ducts to those under the age of twenty
one years would have suffered the
same fate had it not been rushed
rushed through early in the session
But in spites of the failure of these
measures, DR.. Davis in the house sue
ceeded in obtaining final action under
the suspension of the rules in both
house and senate on his bill forbidding
the use of common towels and COM
mon drinking cups in public places
Considerable interest centered around
what was known as substitute H. B. 34
because it was drastic prohibition BILL
and offered no opportunity for grocer
les to dispose of flavoring extracts
nor for. druggists to deal in those COM
pounds which need alcohol either in
their manufacture or preservation. For
a long time the action on this bill was
exceedingly slow. 1t was sponsored by
Mrs Pauline M. O'Neil of Maricopa
county, who ran for the house on sole
ly a prohibition platform although she
was a nominee Of the Democratic par
ty. Not until the last day or two of
the session did it seem possible to get
action on the bill. 1t somehow got to
the bottom of the calendar and there it
stayed. Other bills would be given
preferences, but this measure would
still stay along toward the bottom.
Soon action was taken by the house
allowing preference of bills, one side
to each member, and the ''prohibition''
bill stepped up. On the last day Mrs.
O'Neil obtained unanimous consent for
final action on her bill, in exactly the
shape that it had been introduced, and
it was passed with few dissenting votes
The senate however did not see the
question in the same light The ap-
parent injustice to the druggists, and

JEROME, Ariz., March 16.-Arrange-
ments for sending a trial shipment Of
carbonate ore to the Humboldt smelter
have been made by the Dundee -Ari-
zona Copper company, and if the ore
is satisfactory regular shipments Of
the ore will be made hereafter. The
company has over 1000 tons of the
conglomorate ore on the dump, and an
immense tonnage is in sight in the
surface workings, so that shipments
can be continued Indefinitely if mar
ket can be found for the ore. The main
shaft on the property is now 460 feet
deep, and it is planned to sink to
depth of, 1000 feet with the present
equipment if it should be necessary.

had gone to the trouble to hold him
up at the point of a gun, Ignacio As
cero an employe of the Inspiration
shot through the knee and left to his
own devises on Tuesday night. The
outrage occurred on Miami Hill. AS
cero tells that he was stopped by two
masked men, who at the point of a
gun searched him, and then incensed
because he had nothing of value each
fired at him, one bullet hitting him
just below the right knee, breaking
the bone.

THIRD LEGISLATIVE SESSION
Was UNIQUE; SOME THINGS
ACCOMPLISHED By SOLONl

PHOENIX, Ariz., March 1.-THE
Arizona Legislature has just COM
pleted the third regular session of that
organization since statehood. Impress
sions as to the value of the bodies of
course are rampant, but the outstand-
ing fact is that the bodies completed
their task within the time limit set
by the constitution, and have in all
probability avoided an extra session
something that has not been heretofore
done by Arizona legislatures. One of
the noticeable pecularities of the ses-
sion has been the absence of many
bills directly effecting the public
health, another point of interest be-
ing that many even of this small num-
Der failed of passage. The committees
of public health and statistics in both
houses were presided over by medical
men, who also have had large expert
fence with the pharmaceutical end of
those professions whose sole aim is al
deviation of the physical evils of man
kind. DR.. C. Howard Davis of Pinal
county, who was chairman of the
house committees, is both a physician
and practising druggist in his home
was formerly superintendent of the
territorial hospital for treatment of
the insane. Both these men being
practical men, doubtless aided in keep
ing many bills that otherwise would
have found their way to public notice,
from such publicity
Several bills were introduced dur
ing the session, directly effecting the
medical fraternity, and the dentists,
in fact new dental code, but these
failed to get by the rush of the clos
ing days. Another bill of interest was
that creating a state board of health,
amending of course the. present con-
struction and conduct of that i'm
portant state function, but this also
failed. In that connection two bills
introduced in the senate by Senator
Wilkinson of Maricopa which sought
to- conserve the vision of infants and
school children were laid on the table
awaiting definite action on the board
of health bill that never came. Doc
tors have heretofore been unable to
practice in this state upon their quail
fications from other states without
some inconvenience and examination,
but this has been changed by the pas
sage of reciprocity bill that extends
to doctors from other state the same
privileges that are extended to Ari-
zona doctors by those states.

MIAMI FANS ARE
WILD FOR OPENING

MIAMI, Ariz., March 16.-So intense
is love for the good old national game
here in Miami that several hundred
fans presented themselves to the man
agement Sunday morning and request
ed to be put to work improving the
baseball grounds, SO that games can
soon begin. Refreshments were furn-
ished the baseball boosters, and before
the day was done a good deal of the
fence enclosing the grounds had been
completed. This is the first time on
record that the public of any city turn
ed in and regarded efforts for baseball
in the same light as has been brought
to bear on road building.
