Examiner inclined to Believe Bank
Will Reopen for Business

aminer, lie # Wednesday for
Phoenix, having completed the
examination, as required by law,
OF the Bank of Northern Ari-
zona, which institution closed
its doors on the 29th of July.
Before leaving, Mr.. Moritz
expressed himself as being very
optimistic regarding the posi-
bic re-opening of the bank,
stating that with the co-opera-
ton and deserved financial as
sistance of others interested in
the district, he believes that it
will only be a short time before
business can be resumed.
The closing of the bank was

caused by the stringent fnan-
cial conditions existing all over
the country which condition pre-
cluded a possible raising of mon
ey by the various borrowers in
debted to it. Such being the
case, deposits necessarily being
reduced, the bank was unable
to keep within the necessary
reserve as set forth by the
statutes and with no relief in
sight, the Directors felt that in
justice to depositors they should
take the action they did at this
time.

assistant, has taken temporary

Reservation Now "Open"
to Fishing---AIso Lakeside
Lakeside, Arizona,
July 81, 1921.

Snowflake Herald:
Beg to advise you that the
fishing will be open on the Apa-
che Indian Reservation during
the month of August. 1t will
be necessary to procure State
licenses and permits from the
Indian Agent before indulging.
Would also like to inform your
readers there are still Rainbow.
trout at Lakeside, and. what is
more, they are being caught.
A fat man came here some time
ago Originally from Missouri
and he proceeded to camp on the
Job until he learned the game.
He says the fish are so gentle
that he can lay his line across
their backs, give a jerk and get
them in the short ribs. Can
vouch for the fact that he has
caught at least eight big fell
lows three in one evening.
They range in size from 15 to
80 inches and weigh as much as
seventeen pounds.
Yours truly.

Officials Back From Tax
Commission Meeting

Z. +. Owens of Snowflake. ].
=. Richards Of St. Joseph, r. C.
CresWell of Winslow, all mem
bers of the county board of su-
pervisors, M. 4. Tanner, clerk
OF the board, Wallace E. Shum-
way, county assessor, returned
Monday from Nogales where
they attended a meeting of the
State Tax Commission in con-
junction with boards of super
visors and clerks of same and
the assessors of the various
counties of Arizona.
Among the things that came
up in the conference was sane
tioning the calling by Governor
Campbell of a special session of
the legislature for the purpose
of cutting down some of the state
appropriations, and thus reduc-
ing the peoples taxes to a great
extent. However, it is said, if
this is done it will only help the
larger and wealthier counties,
and in place of benefting the
small ones will be expensive to
them, for they will have to bear
their part of expense for the
holding of the special session.
Mr.. Owens reports a delight
ful trip and time-the party
made the journey by auto and
that Nogales furnished plenty
of rain during the gathering.
The whole delegation made a
trip across the line to Nogales,
Mexico, the mayor of the town
delivering a speech of welcome
to the assemblage in his native
tongue, which was thoroughly
by Mr.. Owens, he
the Mexican language
fuently. A bull fight was also
pulled off for the benefit of the
U. S. visitors, four of the ami
mails going to their death before
the feast was concluded.
They also saw (?) several cases
of real "kicky" beer while in
Mexico which no doubt looked
powerful good TO some Of the
dry Arizonans.

The big rain last Sunday night
caused streams and dry washes
to carry water to their full ca
pacity. Cottonwood wash just
west of Snowflake was carrying
a good-sized stream, although
Silver creek to our east was not
as high as it had been hereto
fore this season. Over in Apa-
che county the Little Colorado
river is said to have done some
damage to land, and for a time
it was thought the Hunt reser-
voir would go out. No damage
was done at Woodruff. 1t was
feared that Holbrook people liv-
ing near the river would be sub
merged, it being reported from
Gallup, n. NJ, that the Rio
Puerco was raging torrent and
it caused some excitement among
the citizens of the county seat.
However, the water had greatly
subsided before reaching there
and but little damage was done.
The rain caused mail delay south
of Snowflake, no mail from
towns south of Showlow arriv-
ing until Wednesday.

More Prosecutions for
Causing Forest Fires

A few days ago Ranger L. S.
Kartchner brought one of the
prominent ranchers of the He
Der District and a cowboy TO
the Justices court at Pinedale,
where both plead guilty to care
lessness with fire and accepted
sentence. In the case of the
rancher the fire escaped from
his premises on to the Forest.
With the cow-puncher it was
the little matter of throwing
down a match without being
sure that it was extinguished
after lighting a cigarette.
The lady justice Of the peace
at Pinedale. about the same
time, docketed two cases on the
Pinedale District, the men being
both ranchers who were care
less with fires set on their own
lands in connection with the
burning of logs in their fields,
which, due to the unexpected
high winds, were not controlled
and did damage to Forest land
and timber. The last two cases
were worked up by Ranger Slos-
ser of the Park -Pinedale District.
The Forest officers report that
during the season a total of ten
cases have been successfully
prosecuted, with several others
that are still being investigated
and may add to the number.
While none of the fines imposed
this season have been heavy it
is the hope of the Forest officers
that they have been sufficient to
impress the individuals con-
cerned, as well as the public,
with the need of greater care
with fire in the Forests. Should
there be carelessness to any
thing like the same degree an
other year there is every proba-
bility that the penalties imposed
will be much more severe than
in the case Of the present season.

Saturday to battle with the base
ball team of the last named
town. The contest lasted long
enough for Taylor to shoot sew
enteen times around the bases,
while there was not even a re-
port from a single one of
the boys from the pine district.
In other words, the score read:
Taylor, II; Pinedale, 0.
aolbrook was to have played
Taylor Friday afternoon but
wet grounds in the county seat
town caused a postponement of
the game. Holbrook was also
to have played Sunday with

be called off on account of too
much dampness.

Famous HOpi Snake Dance
Will Be Held This Month

Indian ceremonials, is announced
to be held on Aug. 25th at the
villages of Walpi and Mishong-
noYi. These villages are on the
first and second mesas, respect
lively, from the agency town Of
Keams' Canyon, and is easily
reached by stage from HoIbrook.
The Snake Dance proper is
held on the last day of the cere-
monials, which begin on Aug.
18th with the announcement of
the event from the housetops
by the village crier. This takes
place four days after the Niman
celebration. On the ninth day
following this announcement
the Antelope and Snake priests
repair to the ceremonial kivas
or underground chambers to
make prayer offerings.
On the second, third, fourth
and fifth days the hunts for the
rattlesnakes are held, one day
being given to each cardinal
point of the compass, beginning
with tn e north. If enough
snakes are not on hand the hunt
continues for two more days.
In the meantime, the famous
sand painting has been pre-
pared on the floor of the kiva
and the prayers for rain offered.
In fact, the whole ceremonial is
a prayer for rain.
On the mornings of the eighth
and ninth days are held the foot
races for the coveted prizes,
which, when buried in the field
of the winner, is supposed to
assure a bountiful crop.
During the race of the ninth
day, the priests wash the snakes
in the holy water in the kiva
and sprinkle the water at each
of the four entrances to the vii
lage. The snakes are t h n
brought to a bower on the plaza.
Here the. snake priests gather
in two lines and dance up to
the bower. One of the priests
then advances to the bower,
where he receives a snake, which
he places in his mouth. An
other man, called the hugger,
follows him to prevent the snake
from getting in his face. Next
comes the gatherer, who picks
up any snake that falls from
the dancers mouth. They are
followed by other trios until all
the priests have passed the
bower and all the snakes have
been used.
The head priest then draws a
circle about five feet in diane
ter on the ground with sacred
meal and into this the dancers
drop their burdens in one wrig-
Cling mass. The entire line of
dancers then pass this heap in a
rapid gait and each thrusts his
hand into the squirming mass
and picks up all he can carry.
They are then carried down and
deposited at the foot of the
mesa. This ends the public
ceremonials. I he publication |
rite, however, occurs that night, !
at which all the priests drink a
powerful emetic, which is fol-
lowed by violent vomiting over
the sides of the mesa.
Many people wonder why the |
priests are not bitten and do not
die from the wounds of the rat
tlesnakes. No one knows ex-
actly, but the Hopis must have
some way of picking up the rep
tiles and are careful not to pick
them up when they are coiled
for striking. One thing is GER
tain; they never extract the
fangs and they have no anti
dote for the poison.
