Not to Be Opened for Min
eral Entry for Some Time

Prospectors who expect to
take up claims on Indian reser-
vations in this section, says a
dispatch from Prescott. received
setback to their plans through
a telegram from Senator Ashurst
to the Journal-Miner, saying the
reservations would not be opened
to mineral entry for some time.
The newspaper was prompted to
inquire into the matter because
of reports that prospectors were
fiocking to the reservations.
Senator Ashurst's telegram said
that go days after regulations
now being drafted by the inte-
rior department had been pro-
mulgated, certain portions of
Indian reservations in this state
would be opened to entry for
development of their metallif-
erous mineral content but that
no entry would be permitted
looking to development of coal,
oil or gas.
A section of the Indian appro-
priation bill provides authority
for making the entries.

Navajo and Dry Lake.
The Apache property is To-
Gated near the railroad about

Hager, the noted geologist of
Oklahoma. In reporting on the
location for the company Prof.

Nearly Half a Century

Among the many old timers
attending the L. d. S. church
conference in Snowflake the first
of the week was j. H. Richards
of st. Joseph, being a guest of
his daughter, Mrs. w. w. Free
man, while here. Mr.. Richards
came to northern Arizona some
forty-three years ago and during
that time has witnessed the coun-
try emerge from a wilderness
to beautiful towns a n d villages,
productive f S, educational
institutions everywhere, the old
stage coach supplanted by the
overland train, irrigation pro-
jects a reality in fact, saw the
old west disappear and the new
one born. Mr.. Richards is a
good conversationalist and can
relate many thrilling as well as
humorous incidents of the pio-
neer days Of northern Arizona.
Lorenzo Willis, of Showlow,
while attending conference here
last Sunday, had a severe attack
of cramps, and for time it was
feared would not survive the all
ment. A good nurse happened
to be within close call and ad-
ministered to the gentleman's
sufferings in such way as to
render him relief and he is now
apparently as we'll as usual.

Proposed Increase in
Electrical Rates Will
Not Hit Small Consumer

The Nebraska Power company is
contemplating an increase of Its
power rates to large consumers,
but the increase, if ordered, will not
affect the small consumers who are
now paying the 6-cent rate, officials
of the company said.
w. D. McHugh, attorney for the
power company, has conferred with
Corporation Counsel Lambert. who
advised that the ordinance fixing
the present rates will not permit
rate of more than 6 cents, but Mr.
Lambert did not see any obstacle
to the company increasing the block
rates below the 6-cent rate.
]. f. Davidson, vice president
and generafmanager of the Nebras-
ka Power company, said: 1T is evil
dent to the public that since 1917
our operating expenses have been
increased on account OF
the advance of the cost of coal
labor, taxes and materials which
we use. We have tried to swallow
the bitter pill Of these burdens. bui
we have reached a point where we
must consider prospective increase
of coal, on account Of the advance
of miners wages and also an ad
vance of freight rates. We have
been trying to stave off and will not
make any increase of rates unless
it is absolutely necessary
