SHOOK ENTERS DENIAL.

John w. Shook former warden, now
on his ranch at Salmon, issued state
ment to the morning paper in which he
denies the contents of the Seymour re-
port declaring there are no unaccount-
ed for items. He asserts that the audit
was probably made from unofficial
books kept in the penitentiary store
house, kept by convict and solely to
show how supplies are distributed. He
further says there were two sets oil
books kept, one by a convict and the
"official set kept by a civilian. He
asks that the official set" be audited

ceeding $4,000 from the proceeds
derived from the sale of town lots
at Parker, Arizona, on the Colorado

CLAIM SECRECY
NOT OBSERVED
ELECTION IN SWANSEA PRE-
CINCT BEING INVESTIGATED
IN GUBERNATORIAL CONTEST
ALLEGED IRREGULARITIES.

PHOENIX, April 23.-The voters
on desks in the same room with the
election board the same as in Snow
flake and that secrecy of the ballot
was not considered, was the testi-
mony of three witnesses who took
the stand before Judge Stanford this
morning in the investigation OF
Swansea precinct, Yuma county.
There were many violations Of the
election laws, according to the testi-
mony presented by the Campbell at
torneys, such as allowing persons to
vote who were not registered in that
county and naming deputy sheriff
to act as marshal
The official register was offered as
ayowed to prove that the names of 2S
out Of the 81 voters who cast ballots
were not in this book. A challenge
sheet containing the names of 12
voters was also offered in evidence.
Some of those challenged and who
were allowed to vote had registered
as far away as Phoenix In one in
stance the person challenged was al
lowed to vote only for presidential
electors. This is said to be a legal
procedure.
The polling place at Swansea was
in a canvas structure used as a
school house. 1t was 15x29 feet in
dimensions and divided into two
rooms, one for the board and a small
place set aside by a rickety partition
for housing the voter. However, few
entered the room where the booths
were located, but marked their bal
lots on the desks.
C. A. Diehl, clerk of the election
board, testified that he left the poll
ing place for two hours at noon and
returned to find another official alb
sent.
The witness said anyone was al
lowed to vote outside of the booth
but believed it was understood that
the ballot should be marked in
secrecy.

CLARKS SECURE
SWANSEA LEASE

1t is authorftively announced that
the Clark copper interests will take
over the Swansea mines and smelter
about May l. A new corporation,
known as the Swansea Lease, has
just been organized for this purpose
The incorporators are J. Ross Clark
and Charles Clark, and the articles of
incorporation have already been fill
ed for record in this county.
At a meeting of the stockholders
held the past week in Swansea a
leasing agreement was entered into
with the Clark interests. 1t is un-
derstood that the Clarks have ad-
vanced the balance of the indebted
ness owed by the old company, and
by so doing have satisfied the credit
Ors
The old smelter will be moved to
new location, and, it is said, it's
capacity will be increased. Under
the leasing agreement new 1000
foot working shaft isTto be sunk at
once, and the mine developed at
depth.
Mining men throughout this sec
tion are elated over the Swansea
mine passing into the hands of the
Clark interests, as this move means
it's greater development, and the
blowing in of the Swansea smelter
at an early date. 1t is said that
within the next sixty days over 800
men will be employed at Swansea.

Senator Henry F. Ashurst and
Congressman Carl Hayden have in
troduced identical bills in the senate
and house of representatives during
the present session of congress, pro-
viding for an appropriation of $1O,-
600 for the purpose of compiling a
report on the feasibility of construct
ing the Colorado River Indian irri-
cation project. The bill also directs
the secretary of the interior to give
consideration and submit to congress
his recommendations based upon the
data obtained by the authorities of
the State of Arizona as the result of
an investigation of the underground
waters by the sinking of certain
test wells upon said reservation.
Aside from this step that is being
taken to hasten the opening of the
surplus lands of the reservation, the
Arizona delegation in congress is
making every effort to secure the
opening of these lands under a pump
ing system at the earliest possible
moment, as the proposed investiga-
tion to be made by the secretary of
the interior need not necessarily in
terfere with the opening of at least
a portion Of the lands at the present
time, and without such authorized
investigation.
The full text of the bill as in
troduced by Senator Ashurst and
Congressman Hayden follows

Tuesday Nights Meeting.

A good crowd of recruits of the
Home Guard turned out Tuesday
night to perfect a temporary organi-
zation. The meeting was called to
order by Chairman w. w. Dunbar,
and upon motion a committee of five,
including the chairman, was ap-
pointed to draft rules and regula-
tions for the guidance of the Guard
This committee consists of w. w.
Dunbar, G. A. Marsh, Capt I. NJ
Imboden, Frederick M. Hall and ]. B.
Flanagan.
Capt. ImbOden was elected tempo
rary captain, and Henry Bandy tenn
porary first lieutenant. R. H. Full
ler was elected company clerk
Capt. Imboden gave very inter
esting talk on the subject of pre-
paredness and the necessity of
Home Guard organization. The
Captain has had considerable active
service, and will be a valuable aid
in training the recruits to the Home
Guard Henry Bandy has also had
service in the Arizona National
Guard, and with these two officers
at the head of the local Guard it is
expected that an efficient organiza-
tion will be perfected in record
time.
The permanent organization of
the Guard will be perfected as soon
as the board of county commissioners
shall delegate the necessary police
authority to the organization. An
effort will be made to secure arms
from the state.
Active drilling has already been
started, beginning Wednesday even
ing, and nightly meetings of the
Guard were held for this purpose
during the week The members are
fast becoming proficient in the man
ual of arms, and in a few weeks
Parker will be able. to boast of hav-
ing one of the best Home Guards in
the entire state.

HOME GUARD
IS ORGANIZED
ENTHUSIASTIC MEETING HELD
SATURDAY NIGHT, AND TEN
PORARY ORGANIZATION PER
FECTED TUESDAY.

The spirit of 70 was alive in
Parker Saturday night, when almost
every man, woman and child turned
out to attend the open-air patriotic
demonstration. Amid the playing
of national anthems by the Indian
band and the singing of patriotic
hymns by special quartette the
people Of Parker conclusively- proved
that they were with the government
in it's present war with Germany.
The mass-meeting assembled pur-
suant to published call in The Post
for the ostensible purpose of organiz-
ing Home Guard, but in conjunc-
tion with this object the meeting
developed into demonstration for
the Presidents stand in Americas
participation in the European war.
The crowd was unanimously patriot
ic, and every reference made to the
flag and the republic was greeted
with cheers.
Attorney w. w Dunbar presided
and aside from stating the object of
the meeting, touched upon the pa
tr1otlc duty of every citizen dur
ing the present crisis, and severely
scored the slackers and agitators who
are criticising the government and
the president in their stand against
NnCnntiCn0 c1
holding the rights of human liberty.
His remarks brought forth unstinted
applause.
1t was the unanimous opinion of
those present that a Home Guard
should be organized forthwith for
the protection of lives and the prop
erty of this community, and when
the lists were opened for recruits
scores crowded around the speakers
table, eager to affiliate with the pro-
posed organization.
The ladies in the audience also
got busy and circulated a petition
for the organization of Red Cross
society, and about twenty-five or
thirty members were secured.
About eighty-five volunteered as
members of the Home Guard Sat
urday night, and every day the list
is growing. At the conclusion of
the meeting Chairman Dunbar called
a meeting of those who had signed
up as members of the Home Guard
for Tuesday night
