Admitted to Practice.

In future years when history
records the doing of an eminent
Irish jurist, Judge j. L. Sweeney,
our minds will slip back over the
fight of time Winslow and the
office of the Western Union Co. ,
and we will remember that the
distinguished gentleman was our
friend John Sweeney, wire chief
for the telegraph company. John
went before the state board at
Phoenix last week for examina-
ton, and his name is given out
as one of the successful candi-
dates. Mr.. Sweeney expects to
open law Office within the next
few weeks, and assist mankind

Surprise Wedding.

One of the real matrimonial
surprises of the year was the
marriage of Miss Vele Martin,
neice of Mr.. and Mrs. Mcmillan,
to Edw. Klelndienst, son of Mr..
and Mrs. j. E. Kleindienst, which
was solemnized at the rectory
last Tuesday evening, the cere-
mony being performed by Rev.
II. S. Brewster. The surprise
included even the relatives of
the young people as we'll as the
general public, the young people
having very jealousy guarded
their secret. 1t was one of the
fast and furious courtships of the
story book. they having only been
keeping company together few
weeks. The bride is seventeen,
and the groom is twenty-five
years old. They will make their
home in Winslow, where Edward
is employed by Dagg & Co.

Special Session of Congress.

For the first time in the history
OF this country a special session
of Congress has been called bv
a President by cablegram. Mr..
Wilson has issued a call for the
converting of Congress on Nav
18th, which is several weeks
earlier than anticipated by the
members, who had set the time
not sooner than June 1st. 1t is
said the early call was made at
the request of Secretary of the
Treasury Glass. who represented
TO the President the urgency of
immediate action in passing ap-
prlatlon bills to keep the affairs
OF government going. The Pres
ldent will not be present when
Congress meets, and perhaps an
other precedent will be estab-
lished by having his message to
Congress sent by cable and trans
mitted to that body.

Resigns His Position.

Mr.. r. C. Kaufman, who has
been cashier of the Arizona State
Bank since it's organization, has
resigned his position to take ef-
feet about July 1st. 1t has been
known for some time that Mr..
Kaufman had contemplated this
move, but he has been prevailed
upon to continue in the position
until such time as the bank Of
ficials could make satisfactory
changes. 1t will be good news,
however, to know that Mr.. Kauf-
man does not intend to sever his
relations with Winslow, but ex-
poets to enter other activities
after few months rest.

Purchases a Home.

7. M. Quebedeaux, Of El Paso,
vice president of the Arizona
State Bank, has purchased the
Burbage property on west Fourth
street. now occupied by E. W.
Fish. Mr.. Quebedeaux expects
to remodel the home completely
as soon as he gets possession, and
hopes to have it ready for his
family when they return from
the coast in July. A year ago
Mr.. Quebedeaux declared he in
tended to come to Winslow as
soon as the war was over, and
assume personal management of
the bank here. He has been
making regular trips to Winslow
for several years, and with each
trip he was more firmly convinc-
ed that here was the place to
make a home. Our people will
welcome Mr.. Quebedeaux and his
family.

Auto Accident.

Last Sunday Joe Vargas. with
a party of friends, started for
Holbrook in his car, but when
out a few miles the steering
knuckle of the machine broke,
and the car went over. Five
young men were in the machine,
but fortunately none were seri-
ously injured. Joe was the most
unfortunate of the bunch as he
was caught under the steering
wheel, and for several hours was
insensible. Under the care of
the doctor he improved rapidly,
but was confined to his bed for a

Do You Get 1t :?

Land Commissioner Mouer has
just issued his ruling on the mat
ter of selling and transferring
oil land leases in the state, but
which in fact applies to the Hol-
brook Winslow oil fields now
being exploited. Mr.. Mouer says
that oil leases taken out on state
lands cannot be sold and trans
ferred without his consent and
approval. Do you get the idea?
If oil should be developed in this
county the hundreds of people
who have paid for leases on
school lands cannot sell their
leases without the approval of
the Land Commissioner, and how
easy it would be for the oil trust
to arrange with Mr.. Mouer not
to approve any transfer unless it
goes to them. Not one of the
present holders of leases is finan-
cially able to sink an oil well, and
with only a two year lease for
development work the time would
be too short to organize a compa-
ny to do the work, and the lease
would revert to the state unless
/ the holder sold his lease to the
parties indicated by the commits
sioner. Evidently Mr.. Mouer's
ruling is to make it possible for
some of the ''ile" to find it's way
to Phoenix. Only the big cattle
barons can lease any state land
for range, and Mouer proposes
that only big oil companies can
get oil leases on state lands.
Honest Billy" is the great
friend of the common people,
and in Honest Ren' he has a
true counterpart. What is the
Land Commissioner for if not to
take care of his friends?

Surprise Party.

Mesdames O. w. Schleuter and
Vance Wilson planned a pleasant
surprise birthday party for Mrs.
e. II. McKellips last Wednesday
afternoon at the home of Mrs.

vlted were members of the Fri
day Culture Club, of which Mrs.
McKellips is one of the number.
Owing to lll-health the past year
she had not been able to attend
many of the club gatherings and
missed the good times enjoyed
by the other members. Her
birthday furnished the opportu
nifty for her friends to make up
for the pleasant afternoons she
had to miss. We understand ev-
cry guest had either to sing,
whistle, dance or recite. which
furnished abundance of enter
ment for the afternoon. Dainty
refreshments were served at the
close of the afternoon, and Miss
McKellips was presented with a
silver syrup pitcher as memen-
to of the occasion. =
