Member of State Council.

While Gov. Hunt was in the
city last week he was looking
over our citizenship for a men,
Der of the state council of de-
fense, and his eye finally fell on
the Apollo-like form of our
friend VIM. Nagle, and the gov
ernor's problem was settled at
once. Mr.. Nagle is a member of
the fremen brotherhood, and is
a live wire, not only for organ
lied labor but as good citizen
in our local civic affairs. He has
not yet given his consent to ac-
cept the place, but the pressure
of his friends will probably over
come any of his personal objec-
tions. The council of defense
should have true representative
of the railroad men on its mem
bership, as the railroads are an
adjunct to our war activities.

Water Rates Effective.

A copy of the final order of
the corporation commission re-
lating to the new rates being put
into effect by the water company
has been received by w. J. Gro
zier, city clerk. After review
ing the application made by the
water company for a rehearing
on the schedule prepared by the
commission, it was ordered that
the rates as announced should be
effective July 1st. and that the
water company on July 1st should
cease from demanding or collect
ing the rates for water previous
ly charged. After the expira-
tion of sixty days the commits
sion will again open the question
of the reasonableness of the new
rate established, and if it is too
high the same will be adjusted.

Boy Murderer.

Last Saturday evening at a
Mexican dance, in the sawmill
district east of Flagstaff, a young
Mexican fatally stabbed another
Mexican in a aquarrel over a young
lady. The murderer fled immedi-
ately after the commission of the
crime, but was picked up by Bob
Lange, one of the guards at the
Canyon Diablo bridge Monday
morning, brought to Winslow and
turned over to Sheriff Dickinson,
of Coconino county, who had ar
rived in the city in search of his
man. The boy gives his age as
fifteen.

Enters the Service.

Gelert Ramage, who is now a
full-fedged dentist, having re-
Gently graduated with honors
from the Southern California
University, arrived in the city
Monday evening to visit a short
time with his parents. DR.. Ram
age has received notice that his
high standing in his university
work has been rewarded by be-
ing selected as one out of a hun
dred in the United States who
have been ordered by the gov
ernment to report at Camp Ogle-
thorpe, Georgia, for special train
ing in oral surgery and plastic
work. He expects to report for
duty on July 10th.

Error Corrected.

In our comments last week on
the alleged road building on a
strip west of Winslow by con-
tractors under the direction of
the highway commission, we
gave the length of the road as
three miles, but our friend Bob
Walton, who is nothing if not
accurate, tells US the road is only
one and seventeenth miles. The
highway commission should ex-
plain to contractors that it is ex-
pected they will graft about
fifty per cent on the job, but
they should warn them that at
least something must be done to
show for the money they get.
Getting $4,000 for running a
scraper over a couple of miles of
road is a better job than beng a
government war contractor.

w. S. S. Day.

To-day (Friday) is the last day
of the War Savings Stamp drive,
and Winslow will have to come
forward far more literally in the
next twenty-four hours if we ex-
pect to get anywhere near our
quota. The committee in charge
hope the people will wake up to
the Importance of pledging for
purchases of war stamps, and do
it to-day.
Saturday will be the big sale
day for the Boy Scouts, and they
are anxious to make a good show
ing of sales. They already have
sold more than $500 worth, and
they are ambitious to double this
tomorrow. Encourage the lads
in their good work by making a
purchase.

Killed by Train.

Shortly after a freight train
pulled out of the yards Wednes.
day morning some track workers
found man lying alongside of
the track near the shops badly
bruised about the head and in
sensible. They picked him up
and brought him to town, and an
examination by the doctors dis
closed that his skull had been
crushed in three places, and there
was no hopes of saving his life.
He expired shortly afterwards.
A search of his effects disclosed
that his name was Buster E..
Wilson, and that he had been a
private in Co. E. 111th Ammuni.
tlon Train, Camp Bowie, Texas.
but had recently been dishonor-
ably discharged. The discharge
recited that his home was at
Morse, Okla, and gave bis age
as Is years at the date of his
enlistment year ago. No one
saw the accident that cost the
young man his life, but he was
observed by the trainmen stand
ing by the side of the track as
freight train was pulling out,
and it is supposed he attempted
to board it to steal a ride, and
misjudging the speed was thrown
and struck his head on the rails
of the switch tracks.

Accidental Shot.

Bobby Leonard, the second son
of E. Leonard, was accidentally
shot in the foot last Wednesday
afternoon. Accompanied by an
other lad about his age they had
gone to Clear Creek to fish. A
man near by handed a small 22-
rifle to the Merrick boy to hold,
which evidently was cooked, as
the boy in some manner pulled
the trigger and discharged the
gun, the bullet passing through
Bobby's foot. The injured lad
was put into passing automo-
bile and hurried to town for
medical attendance. While the
wound is painful it is not serious.

Peculiar Regulations.

Last week soldier being
transferred from a camp in
Georgia to California was quar-
antined in Winslow in the Sleep
er in which he had a berth.
From information given the man
was attacked wi h smallpox
shortly after boarding the train,
and was broken out when he
was examined by doctors at some
point in Kansas, but he was per-
mitted to continue his journey
until he reached Winslow. 1t
would seem the government
ought to take more precautions
in the matter of spreading dis
ease. The soldier knew he had
smallpox, and the doctors who
examined him certainly must
have known, but they passed
him on to save their own COM
munlties.

Attention, Embryo Postmasters

| At the request of the Post
master General the civil service
commission has changed the
place for the examinations to be
held for the job of postmaster at
Winslow to Flagstaff. The or
Ilglnal announcement for the ex-
animation said it would be held
IN Winslow on July 10th, but
under this new order it will be
held on the same date in Flag
staff. Candidates who are ex-
pecting to enter this contest will
govern themselves accordingly.
Up to date there are about
fifteen candidates entered in the
civil service examination for
postmaster at Winslow. There
must be some peculiar fascina-
IN drawing a pay check from the
government. AS the examina-
tion is to be held in Flagstaff the
government ought to make an
excursion rate for the candidates,
or give them a rain check and re-
fund the money if they don't land
the job. Perhaps the happiest
man is Congressman Carl Hay
den, who is relieved of any
responsibility in selecting the
postmaster.

Gov. Hunt was visiting in the

to many friends who called to
pay their respects, the democratic

the Harvey House all day for a
chance to get the ear of the Ex-
ecutive. The Governor had read
about Sam Proctor coming to
Winslow so he could take off his
white collar and wear overalls to
enjoy life, and he decided to try
it out for day himself clothed
in the south half of a Palm Beach
