Rev. w. c. Long, Ex-SteeI Work.
or, Saves Own Homo and
That of Parishioner.

CUMBERLAND, Nd, May 2S.-Six
feet tall and of herculean strength.
the Rev. Walter Carl Long. ex-steei-
worker. now a Pentecostal minister
at Flintstone. Nd, is no man for enc
mics Of his sect to trifie with. This
was proven recently when he foiled
thug who sought to dynamite his
home and the dwelling of one of his
parishioners a short time after his
church had been burned.
He has been a minister RI tho Pen
tecostal denomination, Ned Holy
Rollers by some. for three years.
ess than a year ago the Pentecostal
sect entered the Flintstone neighbor-
hood, holding tent meetings. They
drew large crowds from West Vir-
ginia and Pennsylvania Many con-
verts were obtained and a congrega-
ton was organized. There were
charges OF proselyting. Families be-
came divided and, In ono instance. .
husband and wife separated.
CHURCH IS BURNED.
The new sect had many enemies and
soon after 1t had moved into q church
building the structure was burned.
Every indication pointed to an incsn-
diary fire. The church had been an
old store building, at Gilpintown. near
Flintstone, which had been remodeled
for church purposes. After 1t was
burned, several men were arrested for
having disturbed worship held In the
building, and an exciting trial took
place in court at Cumberland. lasting
several days. Two men were found
guilty and fned. The costs were also
placed on them and were heavy be-
cause of the large number of wit
nesses. The testimony offered was of
such a character as to aggravate the
bitter feeling.
Since the burning OF the church the
Pentecostal sect worshiped at the
homes Of members, of whom there are
more than a hundred. Tho Rev. Mr..
Long, with his wife and two sons. Jo-
seph, aged five years. and Elzaphan.
aged two, had been living on Flint
stone Creek, a little over a mile from
Flintstone. since october 1. About
o'clock on the morning Of Friday, May
20, the minister was up on account of
his youngest child having whooping
cough.

These wonderful formations of the
Navajo Country are found in three
distinct groups. The first forest is
noted for it's brilliant colorings; the
second has countless trees intact;
the third contains the most gigantic
specimens, some 200 feet in length,

1t appears from the foregoing that
two departments of the federal gov
ernment are vitality interested in the
propoaed road, viz. the Indian De
partment and the Park Department.
The Navajo Indians are good work
ers, thrifty honest and Industrious:
they will furnish all the necessary
common labor to build the road, and
when built it will be of great as

L.
Mr. Charles D. Hayt,
Denver, Colorado.
My dear Sir
l have your letter of the 9th in
stant relative to the proposed auto
mobile road between the Grand
Canyon and the San Juan Basin, and
have given the matter my consider
alton
In reference to the report of M
Smith, I am compelled to differ with
him in some of his conclusions. At
the opening of his report he con-
templates the commencing of the
proposed highway at the end of the
Santa Fe railway at the Grand Can
yon proceeding westerly, parallel
ing the Colorado river for a dis
tance of about 80 miles, This is
undoubtedly an error in transcrib
ing of the report as to proceed
wei erly'' from the point of be-
ginning would be in an opposite di-
rection from the objective Of the
proposed road Presuming, there
fore, that it was intended to read
easterly thirty miles; thence south
easterly a distance of about twenty
miles to the government bridge
ccrossing the Little Colorado river"
there appeals to me the seeming
fact that Mr.. Smith did not travel
this section of the country for rea-
sons that are obvious to one who
knows the topography Of that par
ticular section of area lying along
the Colorado river from Grand View
easterly and thence southeasterly
to the government bridge. In fact
it is imDassable to motor traffic and
almost impossible for the construc-
ton of a road of any nature with
out stupendous costs far beyond any
demand or reason that can be pre-
sented at the present time. Mr..
Smith undoubtedly travelled the
road through Tuba City the Moen-
kopi country and over Marsh Pass
and on to Pennington. There is
nothing impossible in this section of
the country in the wav of road
building. Usual construction meth
DDS and cost would provide such a
road.
Referring to Mr.. Smiths report
in the third paragraph on page 2
in which he states "The climatic
conditions the year round allow
automobile travel without interfer-
ence from snow or other causes.
| must take issue here with Mr..
Smith The elevation of the coun-
try in and around Marsh Pass and
eastward from that point until you
reach the valley of the San Juan
is we'll above 5000 feet and in places
reaching over 5000, while the Black
Mesa, Navajo Mountain, the Shatu
Plateau and the Carrizo Mountains
rise many hundreds Of feet higher
and are closely adjacent to the pro
posed road There is no question
but that the snow fall III this sec
ton of the country is much great
err than it is at points further south
along the line of the Santa Fe rail
way which is paralleled by the Ma
tional Old Trails and the National
Park to Park Highway.
I must further take issue with
Mr.. Smith upon the impression that
his report might carry TO others
that this section of the country
through which the proposed road Is
located could be developed into an
agricultural country of production
In the first place, it's entirely with
in Indian reservations and not op-
en- to settlement by white people
| Secondly the Indian will never pro-
| duce for market and thirdly, clfmat-
ic conditions are not conducive tc
the commercial raising of crops for

sent decade. Lastly, in the matter

entire population, of approximately
10000 people would profit by the i'm
mediate construction of this project.
On account of the depressed labor
and market conditions thru ut the
country, the Navajo people are at
present in a pitfful state by not hav-
ing sale for their pelts and other
produce Immediate construction
would provide labor for them and
give temporary relief until the pro-
ject is completed. The tourist ira
vel would then create a market for
their curios, Navajo blankets and
other commodities. Would also have
a tendency to raise the standard OF
the Navajo in the future by being
in more direct communication with
the travelling public and the outside
world.

During the past year the total num- Der of hogs in the country decreas- eG II per cent over the previous year, he says.
 This decrease indicates a short age of pigs this year even though a larger per cent of the spring far row should be brought to maturity. With proper seasonal conditions, there will bu a surplus of feed for finishing hogs, and an increased number of hogs will be needed to clean the sweet potato fields and to consume a possible surplus of such perishable crops as are being planted this year.
 Special care should be taken to save the pigs which are farrowed this spring. Attention at farrow- ing time, sanitary quarters, sunlight, exercise are necessary to save and develop the pigs properly. Young pigs should be taught to eat when they are about three to four weeks old and should be developed suffi- ciently for weaning at from eight to ten weeks old. The sows should be bred for fall filters for the pigs from these filters will be the kind with which to meet the demand for stocker and feeder pigs next winter and spring"
