OUR LAND HERITAGE SAFE

During the development of the
present State land system of
Arizona, the number of State
land holders in the State has
been increased at a high rate of
percentage. The day has passed
when twenty or thirty cattlemen
can control the huge areas of
State lands in Arizona, and keep
out the farmer and the home
steader.
In Cochise county alone, ac-
cording to figures compiled by
the Douglas international, the
number of cattle owners leasing
State lands has increased during
the last year from 100 to 254,
showing that the operation of
the law is encouraging the cattle
industry, rather than discourage
ing it, as has been stated by
Governor Campbell and his ad-
herents.
Records of the State Land De-
partment show thatapproximate-
ly 1000 cattlemeb now leasela land
from the State, as against a few
dozen a decade ago. And still
Governor Campbell, in his denun-
citation of the State Land Depart
ment, claims that few cattle
men, with the aid and consent
of the democratic members of
the State Land Board, are in
league to rob the State of its land
heritage; and this in the face of
the fact that there are still thous-

COUNTY DEMOCRATIC TICKET
SELL THE ROAD BONDS

1t is about time Graham county
woke up to the fact that in order
to secure its apportionment of
the $3,771,3 allotted to the
State out of the U. S. fund for
good roads, it should get busy
and find a buyer for the road
bonds which the people voted
for nearly a year ago.
Graham county would get
about 5000, 600 from this fund if
the bonds were sold and work
started on the highway, between
Greenlee and Gila counties and
on the projected new roads.
If something is not done in
this matter at an early date,
Graham county is going to lose
its apportionment from the Fed
eral fund.
The highway and projected
new roads are absolutely neces-
sary aud it does seem at this
time that the county should be
able to sell its road bonds.

hand, much of the land may be
worth less than the lessee pays
for it. This does not mean that
there is anything wrong with the
present Arizona land system, and
under its operation we can see no
chance for Arizona to lose land
heritage, as Governor Campbell
sovociferously intimates.
Only about one-tenth of the
land that the State has selected
under the congressional State
hood grant has been sold, and
the greater portion of this was
school land situated in the culti-
waited valleys of the State, and on
which citizens had squatted in
the early days and made homes
for themselves and their fam.
lilies. This land sold as high or
higher than $4,000 an acre.
If the people of Arizona. find
that there is something the mat
ter with the land system, they
will, no doubt, enact legislation
to improve the present method
of handling State lands. This is
their public right. and they will
use it in spite of all the calamity

ands and thousands of acres of
range land In Arizona free from
lease.
1t is a well-known fact that
before the State had the select
ion of public lands under the
Statehood Act, a handful of
cattlemen used the government
land without any expense to them
In those days a homesteader
could not file on more than 100
acres at time. and. of course,
he could not feed cattle on that
amount of land. To allow stock
to run on open range, was to the
homesteader to risk losing them,
because he could not afford the
expense of branding them and
caring for them. AS result of
this system, the large cattle out
fits had the monolopy of govern
ment lands because they estab-
lished and controlled the water
ing places.
1t is true that the State lands
may not be leased for all they
are worth; some of it doubtless,
is worth much more to the holder
than he pays for it. On the other

UNCLAIMED TRUNKS
HOLD $4,000 FURS
Police Fail to Find Clue to
Shipped From
New York.

A trunk mystery has developed In
| Washington. Without a clue. head
/ quarters detectives and Inspector
| Grant have vainly tried to solve the
| mystery for more than three weeks.
and virtually have given up their eff
| forts. it was learned last night in po-
| lice circles.
The perplexing case had its incep-
ton on July II. when two trunks con-
| tanning furs said to be valued at APP
Iproximately $4,000, arrived at the
Union station. Failure of the trunks
to bear the names of consignor or
conSignee caused officials at the Union
station to hold the trunks in an eff
fort to ascertain the owner
Several days elapsed, but no one
claimed the seemingly mysterious
trunks. They were opened and found
to contain valuable furs. The police
tectives assigned to unravel the mys-
terry. All they learned, however, was
that the baggage was shipped from
New York.
The New York police then were noti-
fled, and a special officer detailed to
assist the local police in finding clue
which might lead toward solution OF
the mystery. During the entire police
investigation the two trunks remained
in the baggage room at the Union sta
ton
VIII Go Back to New York.
The New York detective arrived in
Washington Friday and after investi-
eating the contents of the trunks with
Inspector Grant at the Union station it
was decided to ship the trunks back to
New York in an effort to identify the
original owners of the furs. The New
York detective returned with the trunks.
While the police are reluctant to
discuss the mysterious case, belief
was expressed that the furs shipped
here are only part of a large loot of
professional thieves in New York.
1t is on this theory that the police
are believed to be working.
Return Adds to Mystery.
The mysterious trunks containing
the furs have been the topic of dis
cussion by. employees of the Union
station for more than a week. Like
the police, the railroad officials de-
cline to discuss the case. The return
of the trunks to New York, it was
pointed out by a railroad official, has
only added interest to the mystery.

arriving at it's conclusions. Commits
sioner McChord criticised Commits
sioner Eastman's position, declaring
that he 'injects into this case large
political questions of governmental
policy which are nowhere in issue

Commissioner Eastman expressed
regret that federal control OF the
roads was not permitted to continue
at least until after the readjustment
period.

federal control might be continued

The Sunday school room at Zion Luth-

abserved the birthday of Washington in q
quiet manner. A copy of alcttcr from the
great patriot to Zion Lutheran Church,
Philadelphia, in response to congratua-

by the pastor, Rev. $. G. Won Bossc.
The pastor addressed his people on the
Americanism of the day of George Wash

Grams of that generation. He referred
feelingly to the old Lutheran of Valley
Forge, Christian Ludwig, who supplied
the Continental Army with bread from
his bakery at time when paying for it
seemed hopeless to all. But the pay came
later on Rev. Won Bosse urged his hearers
to live up TO the fine spirit of Washington

MANY MAKE MERRY
ON WASHINGTON DAY
Appropriate Celebrations Held
Last Night at City Hall and
in Other Localities.

The spirit of George Washington per
vaded the Public Building from end to
end last night when citizens of Whining
ton gathered there to pay honor to the
memory of the Father of His Country. Ii
was no night for one to he out for mere
stroll, but the rain did not keep back
those who had the holiday spirit. 1t is
estimated that 1900 persons were there.
Youth and Old Age both had the "jazz
fever and the main corridor of the big
building resembled well-packed ball
room. The Philharmonic Band, under
the direction of ]. Norris Robinson,
furnished music that made the feet
90 round. The crowd caught the spirit
of the band and whirled around, many of
the older folks seeming TO enjoy the dane
ing as much as anybody.
While the gliding was going on below,
the balconies above were crowded with
those who preferred to look on. The band,
which was furnished for the occasion by
Alfred l. du Pont. was in small space
marked off with the signs of the traffic
squad, which had been loaned for the
evening. These signs caused laughter.
mo Parking read one standing by the
trombone man. The inclination of some of
the dancers to get too chummy with these
signs was watched with vigilance by the
players and the horns were used with funny
effect to prevent lettering around there.
Mayor William G.. Taylor and other
city officials were present and the crowd
enjoyed themselves in their own way
until late hour.
Russian National Hall, 1905 Apple
street, was the scene of a large gathering
of the foreign-horn to pay their respects
to the memory of our first President.
More than 800 men and women crowded
into the place to attend the celebration.
The main feature was a movie depicting
The American arts. During this show
The audience rose and sang "The Star
Spangled Banner" Then they sang one
Of their own songs. The singing of "Amerl-
ca" brought this celebration to a close.
This affair was one of series arranged
5y the extension department of the \.
NJ. c. 4. cooperating with the Board Of
Education. This work is going on under
