the obsequies today yer crawling
out Of beds which gave them little
rest last night because of anxious
thoughts and an itch to begin. The
weather has much to do with eloc-
'tlons, and although We shall prob
ably not know to the man just
what effect this rain has had on
votes and voters, 1t is quite safe to
say that If the rain is general
throughout more counties than
ono, there will be a candidate or
two lose out just because Of 1t.

U. S. ATTORNEY THOS.
 A. FLYNN MARRIED

U. s. Attorney Thomas A. Flynn, former Coconino's assistant county at- torney, and believed by all his friends to be confirmed bachelor, was mar ried on Monday, at St. Mary's church, Phoenix, to Mrs. Eva Luke Wurst, daughter of MT. and Mrs. Frank Luke. Mass was read by Rev. Father Nov atus in the presence of only the im- mediate relatives and a few close friends. Miss Nora Kelleher and J. M. Holub, assistant United States attor- ney, served as maid of honor and best man. Following the ceremony MT. and Mrs. Flynn left almost immediately for Tucson, where they will pass few days and then go on to San Francisco where their honeymoon will be spent.
 The bride is a membe, of a well known pioneer family and has hosts of friends both here and in other parts of the state. During the war she served for more than a year as Red Cross nurse, being stationed at Camp Beaureguard and at Cahlston field Ar cadia, Fla. She received her dis charge from this service early last fall and the time since then she has passed at the home of her parents here and with friends in the southern part of the state. Mir. Flynn is one of the best known citizens of Arizona. He formerly lived here in Flagstaff, where he served as assistant county attorney under Henry Ashurst. His friendship with Ashurst continued af- ter his term in this office expired and when the latter was elected to the son. ate he helped to secure for Mir. Flynn the appointment of United States at torney, a position which he is now holding for the second term.
 After several weeks in San Fran cisco MT. and Mrs. Flynn will return to Phoenix to make their home.

REMOVING TROUBLE

Labor unions in Colorado are to be congratulated in expelling the vice president of their state federation be- cause he carried red card. Most of the agitation in labor circles the past year has been brought about, not be- cause of insufficient wages, poor work ing conditions or long hours, but by the deliberate propaganda of these I. w. w. agitators who have injected themselves into labor circles as lead CTS. As soon as the unions spew them out there will be less friction be- tween Capital and labor.

MAYOR J. C. POWERS
 UNDER THE KNIFE

Dr. J. c. Powers, mayor of Hamp- ton and one of the chief Surgeons on the medical staff of the Lutheran hos pital here, underwent serious oper- ation last Saturday morning for the removal of gall stones, gall bladder and the appendix. Dr. Powers has been sufferer from these ailments for year past, but neither he or his close friends were aware of the seri- ous condition until it was developed by the operation. It was probably one of the most serious operations of the kind that has been performed at the Lutheran hospital. One of the stones removed was half the size of an or dinary egg, Another one as large as hickory nut, and about 100 ordinary size gall stones.
 The operation was performed by Dr. c. F. Osborne, chief surgeon at the hospital, and several visiting sur eeons, friends of Dr. Powers, were present to assist in any manner pos sible. The patient passed through the ordeal in splendid condition, although he was nearly seven hours coming out from under the influences of the an- aesthetic.
 Reports from the hospital this morn ing indicate the continued improve ment of Dr. Powers. He has been able to receive a short visit from a few personal friends, and physicians in charge of his case have every con- fidence that his condition will continue to improve and that in few weeks he will be in far better health and condi- tion than he has been for some time past and will be able to be more act i've than ever in his professional and business affairs. Friends of Dr. Pow CTS all over Franklin county, as well as his large acquaintance throughout the state will be pleased to learn of these favorable reports on his condi- tion.-Hampton Iowa, Chronicle.

INVESTIGATE ALLEGED
 ACTS OF LAWLESSNESS

Gamblers and those who have been selling liquor in Douglas are in the position of the nervous man, waiting for the other shoe to drop. For nearly week it has been reported that Geo. M. Roark, deputy county attorney, and Justice of the Peace w. c. Jack were conducting private investigation of alleged bootlegging and gambling in the city. These investigations will be continued.
 The witnesses are being summoned to appear under the law provided for by chapter IT, house bill 37, amending section 836 of the penal code of the state. This was passed at the 1919 session of the legislature and became effective last June. MT. Roark was the author of the bill.
 As the law existed before, it pro- vided that the presiding magistrate might interrogate complaining wit nesses and such others as might be produced before him, issuing warrants However, the law provided no clause allowing issuance of subpoenas.
 The amendment provided that a magistrate may subpoena and exam inc witnesses and makes it his duty to do so when the county attorney shall so request.
 City courts had the authority pre- vious to the passage of the bill in question, but justices of the peace did not.
 What has been learned at the in- quiry could not be ascertained as those presiding would make no state ment along these lines. There have been many rumors, but what the in- quiry amounts to probably will not be known until warrants are issued, if the testimony secured would warrant arrests.

PLIGHT OF LUMBER INDUSTRY

Lumbering, one of the great indus tries of the west, has been having 2 large sized sample of long distance political control of the railroads.
 Production of sawmills in western Washington & Western Oregon has been dropping off for past two months ship and on January g, 1920, it was only 46 per cent of normal. Demand for lumber is greatest on record, mill yards are full to overfowing, many of the biggest producers have been out of the market for weeks while other mills are closed entirely. It is estimated that only about ten per cent of business offered is being accepted.
 Lumbermen have done everything in their power to get the railroad admin istration to act and now few empties are reported trickling west, but lum- bermen do not expect to get more than 60 per cent of requirements at any time this year and they now have 12,000 cars of thrilled orders.
 Eastern officials in charge of car supply are blamed for the condition as they apparently have no conception of the tremendous needs of the lum- Der industry.
 The average business man can real ize the helplessness of the lumber men when he considers that appeal ing to the officials of the railroad ad- is a whole lot like ap- pealing to to officials of the postoffice it often takes years to get action on such minor details as es- tablishing a new mail box or postal route.
