An innovation unique was tho sit

cases to be tried during the two weeks

sct enough criminal cases to keep both
courts busy for the major portion Of

II will also be something new to have
two district courts trying criminal
cases at the same time: heretofore one
one court has handled criminal and
tho other civil cases during a court
term. Tho next term tho classes of
legal business are transferred. thus
alternating thruout the year.
But owing to the large amount of
obio county. duo to a considerable OK
tent to the grand jury indictment cas-
cs, the two Pueblo judges decided to
divide the work. and when tho crimi-
nal docket is fairly we'll cleared up.
both will try civil cases.

Commissioner Darlington to draw from

Neither Fair Bills
Up For Action

Neither of the state fair bills came
up for action in the house OF rcpresen-
tativcs yesterday. as the proposed pri-
mary law occupied the entire day. 1t
Is expected that the fair bills. which
are on the calendar next to the pri-
mary bill, will be taken up tomorrow.
Representative Mortcnson made a
vigorous fight against the primary
bill as drafted, which he stated was
strongly against the best interests of
clean politics, as 1t is in no way safe
guarded against corrupt practices.
One very undesirable fe; turc in the
mind of the Pueblo representative is
the provision for a penalty for the vio-
lation of party rules. He argued that
party might make any sort OF rule
to please the taste or accomplish the
purpose OF it's controlling powers.
Result OF the fight against the bill as
1t reads. was that action on 1t was
postponed.
Mr.. Mortcnson made II clear that he
was not opposed to changing the pres
cnt law. but was opposed to enactinE
a political machine law which would
make corrupt practices easy and COM
paratively safe.

ATTAWAY- PHELPS GINNING CO. HAS
 TWO FINE PLANTS

The Attaway- Phelps Ginning com pany has been factor in the cotton industry on the Southside since it's establishment four years ago by E. G. Attaway and M. c. Phelps, the present managers.
 The Mesa plant has daily ca pacity of 35 bales and it operates at capacity throughout the ginning season. In 1919 the company estab- lished a branch gin at Gilbert, which is now an integral part of the com pany's holdings The Gilbert plant has capacity of IS bales a day.
 During the past summer the com pany has expended thousands of dol lars in the installation of new clean ing machinery, which makes the Mesa gin one of the best equipped and most modern in the entire state.
 The Attaway- Phelps Ginning com pany has always aided the cotton farmer during the distressing period and is still able and ready to lend financial assistance, MT. Attaway said yesterday.

By FRANK T. PoMERoY

There is no body of people in all the world so intensely and vitally in- terested in genealogy as are members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Lat ter Day Saints. Genealogy to them has a deeper, broader significance than to any other peoples; for back of and underneath, and after em- bracing all of the reasons why others engage in genealogical research it is to them the preliminary, the founda ton and the only means of accom- plishing the greatest, the grandest. the most far-reaching and soul satis- flying work in the Church, the great work of Baptism and Salvation for the Dead"
 For the accomplishment of this work, in part, they have expended millions of dollars in the building of temples and are still building them. The latest projected is the Mesa Temple, the ground to which will be dedicated the 2Sth of this month. But they affirm the temple building will be continued, that the great work of the millennium will be the work of temples, of which thousands will be built in the land of America, the promised land, ,'-'the land of Zion"
 All of this work in the temples is dependent on the gathering of names and vital statistics concerning their ancestors and the compilation of them before the work in the temples can be performed in their behalf. Each person for whom baptism or other ordinances are performed by proxy, must be identified-separate from all others who may have lived, bearing the same name. It is not enough to be baptized for "his fath- er.' 'grandparent,' etc." but the name, date of birth, or death, or place, or marriage, to whom, or percentage. as

well as the relationship to the ''heir" who started the work. are among the required marks of Identification, and that is essentially the field of genea- logical research.
 Genealogy among the Mormon peo- pie then, aside from all the reasons given by others, has a distinctly re- ligious setting. And is predicated on the words of the Son of God, spoken to Nicodemus:
 Except man be born of the water and of the spirit he cannot enter the Kingdom of Heaven" Gohn S:5). They believe that in this very plain and concise statement the Christ named the only conditions of en- trance into the 'eKingdom of Hea- ven'' And that 1t applied to the dead as we'll as the living-to all of Gods children who have been born upon earth, as well as those now liv- ing, or who may yet be born. That the dead who received not these ordi- nances Administered by one who had authority from God to administer them) viz: baptism of the water and of the Holy Ghost" while living on earth. must receive them by proxy, they accepting the ordinances performed for and in their behalf, while they "are in the spirit" with the same spirit of faith, the same spirit of repentance, and with the same desire and renunciation of evil. as living men are required to do; then they will be born again. and will receive the full benefits of the atoning blood of the Lord Jesus Christ, and will enter the Kingdom of Heaven" as if those ordinances were performed while they were lfv- ing in flesh upon earth.
 That such a conclusion is war ranted is plainly manifest in the fol- lowing scriptures The apostle Peter, referring to the death of his

the Indians in Arizona to make peace with the palefaces preparatory to colonizing the state. In 1S46 the Mormon battalion passed through Arizona in defense of the nation against Mexico. In 1877, colonists were sent to the Salt River valley under the leadership of Daniel w. Jones, who settled in Lehi, and in 1878 others settled in Mesa an6 Tempe. Mesa townsite was laid out by these early pioneers and plated in the sage brush before a house was built, the town streets still carrying the names given at that time. Lots were cast for locations, giving all the same chance.
 A. W. Macdonald was placed as president of the stake in 1884 and was succeeded by Charles I. Robson, who was succeeded by Collins R. Flakes. J. T. Lesueur was the next president, and today his son. James w., holds the position, with Orley S. Stapley and John Cummard as counselors.
 With the presidency stand 12 high counselors, six alternate counsetors, a stake clerk, stake organist and chorister. There are 10 wards, viz. Mesa second, Mesa third and Mesa fourth, Chandler, Gilbert, Lehi, Phoe- nix, Pine and Papago, with three branches, Laveen, Walker, Sacaton. Each of the wards is presided over by a bishopric of three and the wards are subdivided again into teachers districts. Every ranily should Ee visited eacI' month by ward teacfl- CTS.
 In each ward there are six orders Of the priesthood and seven auxiliary organizations. Each is presided over by presidency or superintendency Of three. Ten there are aids, teach CTS, secretaries, treasurers, or5anists, choristers, social workers, relief workers in each of these organiza- tions. Then each entire group is pre- sided over by a stake Superintend- ency of three, who are aided by sec retaries, teachers. treasurers, organ ists, aids, etc.
 Thus, in the church, the work is so subdivided and systematize1 that l each one knows his place and nine out of ten adult members have some I important calling.
 stake is about 4.000, having doubled 1 in the last six years.
 The wards of Phoenix, Mesa first, l Mesa second and Mesa third each i have over 500 members. Ten new chapels have been erected in Mari l copa county in the past ten years. l costing from 1000 to S3S,000 each. The church owns it's own amuse- ment hall and conducts its amuse- ments, dances, socials, picnics. out 1 ings, theatrical performances, and
 endeavors to supervise the play of its members. Its preachers and off cers are not ssalaried, do not work l for hire or divine for money and do not make merchandise out of the

4. AND B. GROCERY ONE IF LARGEST
 RETAIL CONCERNS

The A. and B. Grocery company, one of the leading retail houses of Mesa, was originally a commissary adjoining the Clark building. It was a. part of the Shattuck & Desmond firm, which had the contract for sup plies, for workmen and for teams on the Roosevelt dam. c. Fred Bracket was then general manager. The building was 25 feet wide by s5 feet long.
 Upon the expiration of the Shat tuck & Desmond contract the store was taken over by J. ". Alexander and c. Fred Bracket and became the A. and B. grocery. In 1912 Alex ander retired, selling his interests to .C T. Washburn. The following year Bracket purchased Washburn's half interest and became sole owner.
 The company now occupied a floor space 25 feet wide and 165 feet long and has warehouse facilities 45 feet vide and 110 feet long. It carries a complete line of fancy and staple groceries, fresh fruits and vegetables and all kinds Of meats, fresh and cured.
