can offices offer to close up shop if necessary. In temporary charge of the state examiners office, Deputy F. Myers advises the governor. T will be available
 Present expectations are that the governors message to the legislature will be read late. today, in which case The Republican will publish it to- morrow morning. tThe message is to be read, according to the session au- thorities, just as soon as the patron age scrap is over, and when the two houses report all ready for new busi- ness. It is believed that the patron age scrap and other details will carry the day along until a late hour and that the governors message will con clude the business of the day unless there is still time for a reading of the Susan B. Anthony amendment feso- lution, as the legislature will be re minded about that in the governor $ message.
 According to good authority the message will be brief, nothing more than can be read in five minutes time, but all high authorities are dumb on just what that message will contain. Not an inkling of it has reached the corridor wireless service, and if the governor proposes to call for some leg islation not yet specified his call will come as a complete surprise.
 Will Introduce Resolution
 His message is timed for the fur ther discomfiture of the pro patron ageists,'' as one big argument against patronage is that the legislature will sit only for couple of days to handle the business mentioned in the call. If the -patronageists can show that more business is at hand, the authori- ties say. they would have a chance to argue against taking the department Cn lny7c -l.o if the patronage scheme is defea ted and the governor then springs some

Each One Notified
 The democrats were caucuSihS wildly at the Hotel Adams last night They realized that if they accepted the governors suggestion he would derlve quite some credit in the matter, which would never do, and they realized that if they didn't accept his suggestion they would have to answer to the peo- pie for the additional expense Also, as one politicnan put it, patronage is a mighty dear prerogative. At a late hour all bets favored the patron age plan.
 The governor made sure that his suggestion was properly put, taking the liberty last night to have Secre- tary P. R. Mines personally deliver his suggestion in writing to the chair men of the two patronage commit tees-Representative Rosa Mckay of Globe, and Senator Hugh E. Campbell, Coconino county. He was observed delivering the communication to Rep resentative Mckay while the repre- sentative was in conference with for mer Governor Hunt and Senator Null ford Winsor. at the Ford hotel.
 The unpopularity of the governors suggestion for saving the taxpayers money was evidenced in the replies he received from the various state de- partments when he asked for reports how many clerks and stenog raphers those departments would be willing to donate to the legislature for the brief special session. Only 23 of ferings were made, practically all coming from the administration sup porters. The land board. democratic, offered three, and the school board offered one.

WATER OVER THE DAM SATURDAY
 OFFICIAL SAYS
For Fourth Time Roosevelt Reservoir Will Be Filled, But Falling Temperature
 May Delay the Overflow

For the fourth time in it's history, the Roosevelt rservoir, the life giving heart of the whole Salt River valley, will be full to the brim and overflow ing next Saturday-possibly a day or two later, but certainly not before. The opinion that water would not flow over the dam before Saturday was ex- pressed yesterday by Harry Vernon. irrigation manager of the Water Users association.
 With feet and 10 inches yet to go, water will not flow over the spillways of the great Roosevelt dam before Saturday, or soon after Saturday. but flow over it will, as a sign that the great lake is full to the brim. so full it cannot hold any more, and as a. sign of years of future prosperity for the Salt River valley, with water as sured in plenty for every acre

Editor Begins to Grow Old.

With the dawn of day on Apri
10, 1920, the editor of the Chron.
icle expects to look upon the
light of the SEVENTEEN anniver.
sary of his birth. Of these sew
enty years we have spent more
than forty-two in charge as the
editor OF this paper. So, while
in the vigor and strenth of health,
we are prone to boast that we do
not feel old. still the fact remains
that we have reached the limit
of three score and ten, as set by
Holy Writ. There is no assur-
ance that by reason of strenth"
we may reach the maximum of
four score years, and in the or
binary course Of human events a
few more years at best is all that
we can expect.
In the forty-odd years that we
have spent in our association and
dealings with the people of Grant
parish, their joys and their sor.
rows have become our own, and
our interest is keenly alive to |
every subject that affects their
happiness and prosperity. I'll
any mistakes have been made |
they have been errors of judg-
ment and not desires of the |
heart.
With this record of the flight
OF time we only wish to note our
desire to serve the public inter
est as best we may, and to ask
that all our friends and acquain-
tances do all they can to assist
US in this endeavor.
