 Auction City Lots
 YUMA-Thirty city lots were auc- toned here Thursday morning by Mayor J. Homer Smith. The lots which were included in the sale were assessed some time ago, and as the city is going to need all of its ready cash it can get it's hands on during the next few months. it was decided to sell the lots to the highest bidder at an auction sale. The assessed valua- tion of the lots runs from $500 to $500. The site on which the city hall is now located is assessed for $500. The location is very desirab ble, and it is understood that there are quite number of local people who are inter ested in the lot. Most of the lots for sale are situated south of the high school huilding-Sun.

His action in reporting the case only serves to strengthen the sage advice that hon. esty is the best policy
 Although federal interest in the case dropped when it was ascertained the machine could not be used for coun- terfeiting, Captain Walsh turned over his information to Chief of Police Bris- bois, who took up the clues and brought about the arrest of the two alleged confidence men. They will be prosecuted under the state statute which regards fraud a felony.
 Except for the prompt and efficient cooperation of the police department, these men no doubt would have es caped," was the compliment Captain Walsh paid to Chief Brisbois and his men, For obvious reasons, the au thorities are withholding the name of the business man whose information led to the arrest.

CONGRESS IN TILT
over WEST POINT
Walsh Objects to Budget Sec
ton, Claiming II Would Make
U. S. Build Hotel.

Baron Ipecac. Baron Figtree and
Countess Paregoric were among the
distinguished personages discussed
by members on the floor of the House
during debate on the appropriation
bill for West Point Military Academy.
Congressman Joe Walsh, OF Massa-
chusetts. was obJecting TO a provision
which he claimed would mean the
Government would erect an eApen-
siye hotel at West Point.
No such plan was contemplated.
Congressman Anthony declared.
The gentleman says no." MI
Walsh resumed, but IL this Is not
going to be n paying venture there
will be a swarm OF interested people
down here saying; oh, you have per-
mitted this beautiful structure to be
built, and this man cannot make IL
pay, and We ought TO have quarters
for Baron Ipecac or somebody else
who is going to visit here, and we
can not get anybody to run this
place."
No Accommod tioas.
"Oh. the gentleman meant Baron
Figtree." interrupted Congressman
Greene of Vermont.
And probably the Countess Pare
goric will be with him." added Con-
gresham Donovan OF New York.
Mr.. Walsh said with such distin-
guished personages visiting West
Point, sit would simply result In an
appropriation being carried for that
purpose"
Further objection by Mr.. Walsh
brought out the fact that relatives OF
boys at West Point are afforded no
accommodations when they visit
them. but are forced to stay In New
York. seventy-ive miles away.
Mr.. Walsh is unmarried and this
fact Is known far and wide. He often
Is made the butt of q Jest by col
leagues. Mr.. Greene took this part
ing shot in yesterdays debate:
Il hope to live to see the day when,
the distinguished gentleman from
Massachusetts has several sons of his
own at West Point and is visiting
them there, and then 1 may stand
somewhere on an observation point
and observe him trying to enjoy the
convenience of getting his meals
down town in New York. seventy
Ave miles away"
Congressman NORM related an In
stance where a woman went to West
Point to visit her son. When she
went to the only hotel there, the clerk
told her 1.-The only thing / can give you
is a cot in room with six other per-
sons"
The Chair sustained the point of
order against the section which was
made by: Mr.. Walsh.
