Editor St. Johns Herald.
 Dear Sir: I trust you will excuse me if I trouble you with few of my ideas in reference to the proposed bond cleo ton for road building. As am now a resident and taxpayer of Apache county, ! feel that l have right to express some of my views. Now in Saturdays meeting, for selfish motives or some other cause, there was an in clination on the part of some not to treat all parts of the county fair and there was some little feeling manifest and the people from the south went home without anything being done, but next morning there was another meeting held at which the north was represented by MT. Porter and MT. Hill and the south by F. T. Colter and Joseph Burk and the west by good delegation and St. Johns by a very heavy delegation, and spirit of fair ness seemed to prevail with them all, and it seems ts me that the program worked out is as fair as to all parts of the county as could be got under the circumstances. Of course they give the Springerville-Alpine road $10.0O0 which the Alpine delegation said the Alpine people didn't want. But I think that can be made satisfactory as it is a very important part of the road. It is connecting link in the north and south road. In conclusion I will say that I was very much pleased with the attitude of the gentlemen from Gallup, N. M., as they showed a spirit of fair ness in helping to open up the St. Johns Gallup road which would be of great commercial value to both Mckinley county, N. M. and Apache county, Ari- zona. I expect Apache county to be my home from now on and I am with you for Good Roads.
 Signed. FAIR PLAY.

The House quickly rejected both reports and offered propos- als and counter proposals until the lights winked at Il o'clock. The meeting then adjourned.
 At nine o'clock Sunday morn- ing the delegates met again in the Jen-Dike Theatre. Hon. Fred T. CoIter after a few hours rest came forward with a compromise program which provided for a bond issue of $175,OO0; $1OO,OOO to be spent on the main highway and the remaining $75, 1000 to be spent on other roads: S20,000 for the St. Johns-Zuni-Ga road, $15, 900 on the Rio Puerco, $15, GOO on the Eagar- Cooley road, $5,000 on the St. Johns-Navajo road, S10,000 on the Springerville-Al- pine road, $5,0b0 on the Eagar- Vernon road and $5,000 on the Concho-C Cooley road.
 This building program seems to scatter money a great deal. but it is probably the only bond the county can put over at this time. Although 1t seems scattered, the roads applying for aid need this aid very much at the present time. Our greatest hope IS that most of our roads will soon be- come federal roads, and we will be relieved of their upke eep.

Taking Desperate Chances

It is true that many contract severe colds and recover from
 them without taking any precau- tion or treatment, and a know ledge of this fact leads others to take their chances instead of giv- ing their colds the needed atten- ton. It should be borne in mind that every cold weakens the lungs lowers the vitality, makes the system less able to withstand each succeeding attack and paves the way for the more serious diseases. Can you afford to take such des- porate chances when Chamber lain's Cough Remedy, famous for it's cures of bad colds may be had for a trihe? Adv

FORD WINS BIG RACE

Thanksgiving was celebrated in royal style in St. Johns Thurs day, November 24th. Not alone by the eating of fatted turkeys, pumpkin pies, etc., but by the added attraction of auto races and high school contests, etc.
 The races took place on the wonderful track Eest of oowu. The first race was Ford cars with standard gears and there were four entries: Jas. N. Overson, Lionel Waite, B. J. Whiting and J ose Gallegos. Overson came out first; Waite second; Whiting third; Gallegos fourth. Prize $40. .O0.
 The next race had three entries for the prize of $5OO.O0: Gordon Parks driving his Simplex. ac- companied by Earl Duke. Jen- nings special built Ford driven by Jas. N. Overson, accompanied by Lloyd Grimes. and a Cadillac from Gallup.
 The Simplex was an easy win ner from the first to the 12 round when the oil line became clogged and a bearing was burned out, then the Ford special had a walk away and the race lost all inter- est to the spectators.
 The Hudson Super-six burned out a bearing before the race commenced and was unable to enter. There might have been a different story had she been in it, at least some think so.
 Along with all this racing the St. Johns High School pulled of some very fast games of basket hail. with the Snowflake and Eager schools, in which they were victorious. The volley ball games went to Snowflake. The day was ended with a grand ball.

ROAD NEWS

Representatives from all towns of the county met Saturday at 2:30 p. m. in the high school aud itorium to discuss certain features of the new proposed road bond election. Chairman L. R. Gib- bons called the meeting to order, and briefly outlined the purpose of the meeting, which was to the effect that new legislation in con- gress had made the conditions such that it was necessary for the taxpayers of the county to act quickly in the matter of better roads if federal aid was to be se- cured. Each precinct had prob lens of it's own, and in order to give each an opportunity to ex- plain his case, the meeting was opened for a general discussion.
 St. Johns at once brought her problem before the meeting: "The St. Johns-Zuni- Gallup road. " This road has become almost neces- sity with St. Johns with our thousands of acres of newly culti- vated land becoming productive, Gallup is the only permanent market the county has.
 MT. Bedding, manager of the Harvey House at Gallup, gave the meeting a few figures to prove this, Gallup has a payroll now of $25O, 900 per month, and has every chance of becoming a city of thir- ty or forty thousand inhabitants. and is farther from a market than any city in the United States.
 E. I. Whiting explained that the St. Johns-Zuni-Gallup road had boen designated a Park-to Park highway and had every chance in the world of becoming a federal project, thus receiving aid from the federal government.
 J. B. Patterson read a letter from the Chamber of Com merce of Gallup, stating that New Mexico would meet us at the line on the Zuni and the Rio Puerco roads, thus making an interstate road of it which is necessary for any road to become a federal pro- ject.
 Delegates from Alpine. Spring erville and Edgar, next took the floor to press the necessity of the Springerville- Cooley road, to open a market for grain, hay and veg etable at Cooley and Fort Apache.
 MT. John Zalaha of Cooley ex- plained that such a road could be made passable the year round and that possibly the Forest Ser vice and Indian agency would aid us on this road.
 Vernon and Concho felt that Cooley was their natural market and their road should receive con- sideration.
 The Rio Puerco road is the road that has always been unpopular with most of the county, but due to new conditions, such as Gallup being the terminal of a very inn portant highway running from the east, and it being necessary that these cars must go on over the road that is now up the rail- road, we feel that it is very sell fish in us not to assist this part of our county. In fact our governor has already promised aid on this road. If we won't do it the state will do it for us.
 A representative committee of thirteen was now appointed by the chairman to consider these

WASHINGTON. May o-The steps

With the question of wages decided,

NEW YORK, May 9-After close to
four weeks on an East-East and West
West stunt, the major league ball clubs
viii start the first intersecJiOn2l bill Oh

So far the western teams are srowing
the way IN both circuits. Pittsburgh Is
leading the National League by three
games and Cleveland has about the same
margin IN the American.
The Pirates, with their pitchers going
we'll and with their Ofense leading the
league with the stick. are well fortified
for a long stay on enemy sod.
Gibson has Boston and Philadelphia 70
work on before he meets his most dan
Rerous riyals-the Brooklyn champions
and the Giants. Some OF the Eastern
critics say that Pittsburgh has be
come fist of easy Cincinnati, st. Louis
and Chicago meat Even without kopr
and ROush the Reds gave the Pirates
the worst battles in the West, winning
three Of nine games. The Cubs won a
single game from them and the Cards
lost every one.
Boston and Philadelphia are not taken
seriously IN the East, but the clubs have
shown strong inclinations to rise up and
strike back at times.
The Cleveland Indians buck Washing
ton and New York, the two strongest
teams, for a started and then have the
Athletics and the Red SOX. Speaker 9
