e. A. Sawyer, r. L. Keith, w. T.
Henderson and L. V. Root made a
trip to the Adamana we'll Monday
Work has been progressing slowly
at the well for some months, due to
the usual incidents which delay and
halt the drilling of Gil wells. A
crooked hole, collapsed casing. wat
er, ETC., have made the work slow,
but the company have been working
steadily against the conditions and
now have the hole Strengthened out
the casing set and the water cased
out. The plug has been drilled
through at the bottom of the casing

op, the drill will this week be On it's

further troubles coming to the pio-
neer company in deepening their
hole to the productive sands. Mr..
Keith remained at his ranch at Dry
Lake for a few days looking after

of Thorwald Larson, attorney OF
Holbrook, Arizona, for the Democra-
tic nomination for office of County
Attorney. While Mr.. Larson is well
known in Winslow, for the informa-
acquainted with him, the following
biographical sketch is given.
Mr. Larson is native of Utah
born in the year 1871. After COM
pleting the common school courses
of his native town, heattended the
Salt Lake Seminary, and still later
the University of Utah. Owing to
the fact that two sisters and bro
ther were anxious to attend college
he discontinued his studies at the
University before graduation, and
then became a railway mail clerk
between Ogden and Butte City, Mon
tana. After his sisters and brother
had completed their courses, he took
up the study of law in the law Of
fees of Lessenger and Loar, a prom

GOVERNOR HUNT SPEAKS

Geo. II. P. Hunt, former governor
of this state, and candidate for
nomination again upon the democra-
tic ticket at the coming primaries,
spoke last Saturday evening at Com
munity Hall in the Elks1 Building
to good sized audience, which had
gathered to hear the candidate.
Governor Hunt spoke very forceibly
against the proposed amendments to
the state constitution as made by
the State Industrial Commission, ex-
eepting the amendment proposed
upon the subject of cooperative
marketing, and to this amendment
he expressed the opinion that the
matter was fully covered in the
present statutes.
Governor Hunt has always been a
strong supporter of organized labor
and he will undoubtedly have be-
hind him in this campaign a strong
following from the labor organiza-
tons irrespective of the individual
political belief OF the membership.
Governor Hunts former term at the
states capital was a very popular
ane and there will be much of the
strength of support of the old re-
gime which will pass to him in the
present campaign. Under President
Wilson he was appointed as Minis
ter to Siam and represented this
government there until a few months
ago when he returned to his own
state of Arizona to again enter it's
political history
His talk was greeted with spon-
taneous applause in many instances
and he created a very good impress
sion here among new friends as well
as retaining the good wishes of his
cid time acquaintances. While here
he also spoke to a meeting of the
Federated Shop Craft, expressing to
them his sympathy i'll their present
contest for their rights, as well as
advising them to moderation and
quietness in the conduct of their af-
fairs with the railway company He
also took occasion to mention Incl
dents of his life in Siam and touch
ed upon the labor conditions of that
far away island country. The Gov
ernor had only the kindest of words
for his opponent, Charles B. Ward,
in the coming democratic primaries.

RICHARDS FOR SHERIFF

j. w. Richards of St. Joseph, an
nounces himself in this issue of The
Mail as candidate for Sheriff of
this county at the coming primaries.
Mr.. Richards is one of the old time
residents of the county, having liv-
ed here since he was five years old.
His interests are all in the county
where he has lived these years and
during that period of time he has
been one of the cOuntys public
spirited citizens. He served the
county as its treasurer for eight
years, serving two terms of two
years each in the first instance, and
again later serving the county two
more terms. The fact of his return
to the office of treasurer by the peo-
pie of the county speaks most en-
phatically of his worth as a county
official. 1t is upon this excellent re-
cord which is known to the greater
portion of the people of the county
that Mr.. Richards seeks their en-
dorsement for the office of sheriff.
Mr.. Richard is democrat of the
old school and will undoubtedly
draw largely from the democratic
vote of the county at the primaries
and will prove a worthy opponent
Of the numerous other candidates
for the same office.

ARREST, FAILS TO PRODUCE
EVIDENCE

complaint was filed in the JUS
tees Court last Saturday, sworn to
by Anselino Morales, charging as
sault and battery against Carl Wal
ters and Jack Montgomery. Monday
the case was set for trial, the coun-
ty being represented by Acting
County Attorney G. H. Jordan, who
moved the dismissal of the case be-
cause of insufficient evidence. It
appears that Walters called Morales
out of pool hall to talk with him
and that Morales made a movement
for his pocket and Walters GRABBED
him. G. D. Johnson searched his
pocket and found a razor. The evil
dence did not show either battery
or assault and hence the charge was
dismissed A second charge against
Walters was made by Jose Navarro
and August Sedillo. This action
came to court and upon motion of

denied. On account Of insufficient

the automobile show this year is to
be one of the finest ever seen in this
part of the country. Cars of every
make and description will vie with

premiums offered by the Fair AS
sociation. Shining roadsters will
give competition to the larger motors
in their run for the prize moneys

work, revising the prize lists from
previous fairs, taking pointers from
the 1920 fair which was conceded by
all who attended it to be the finest
ever held up to date. and are en-
deavoring to make all plans SO. that
when October 21st of this year is
past. the verdict will come in from
all, that this years fair has far sur
passed anything preceding it.

FORMER CITY MARSHAL IS
NOW IN Tolls OF The LAW

Out OF the past comes some start
ling news of local interest Enoch
(Happy) Wilson. once city marshal
here and who retired from office
with the incoming of the new town
council in June, and who shortly
thereafter disappeared from the city
is much in the lime light Coinci-
dent with Wilson's disappearance
from Winslow, there also disappear
ed a Buick-Six, 1922 model automo-
bile, the property of Ramon Prieto
Deputy Sheriff w G. Kelly has been
working On the case and there has
resulted some developments that are
quite interesting to the local people
Wilson appeared at the town of
Claud, Texas, and there on June %,
told of his possession of the car
His story was that he had bought
it from a party who was desirous of
getting rid Of the auto because a
woman had been thrown out of it
and had been killed and that he had
no more use for the car. Later the
car was offered for sale at Cleren-
don, Texas. At that time it had a
California license on it.. Still later
at Clovis, New Mexico Wilson sold
the car to Sid Boykin, a prominent
business man of that city, for $1,000.
Wilson was introduced to Mr.. Boy
kin by the chief of police of Clovis,
who, it appears was an old friend
of Wilson's having known him some
y2here along the Mexican border.
Deputy Sheriff Kelly wrote and wir-
ed to the police at Clovis but no
reply was returned, it being evident
that Wilson's location was not to be
given away from that source. Kelly
later learned through train crew
that Wilson had purchased ticket
at Clovis and had gone to Los Ange-
les. News from Los Angeles also.
shows that Wilson cashed the $1,000
check in that city Kelly decided to
make a trin and went over to Texas
and New Mexico points, looking for
more information. At Clovis he
found the car in taxi service, hav-
ing been resold by the purchaser
from Wilson. Kelly asked the
sheriff there to take the car but the
owners refused to give possession.
Kelly then sought the Department,
of Justice, and the department then
ordered the sheriff to take posses
sion of the car under the Dyer Act,
which covers the transporting of
stolen cars from one state to an
other. The sheriff now has posses
sion of the car by authority of the
Department of Justice, which de-
partment is also now taking up the
trail of Wilson, and there is a pro-
liability that there will be further
developments of the transactions of
Wilson, if not his apprehension by
the department officers After OBJ
tanning this information, Deputy
Sheriff Kelly went on to Toledo, Iowa
and brought back with him James
Kordina, an embezzler, formerly en-
ployed by the government as a guard
at the Petrified Forest. and landed
him in the county Jail at Holbrook

NEW INDUSTRIES FOR ARIZONA

Practically all aeroplane trim-ve-
neer lumber used for finishing pur-
poses on government aeroplanes
comes from an Arizona mill.
Announcement has Just been made
by Roy and Titcomb, Nogales lum-
Der millers, of contract recently
entered into with the government
for supplying aeroplane trim to the
builders of government planes. This
aeroplane trim is now going for
ward from the Arizona mills in car
load lots.
Special machinery has been in
stalled in the Nogales mills to pro-
duce this veneer, which varies in
thickness from one-sixteenth to one
eighth of an inch. Mahogany. the
finest grades of Mexican hardwood
are used exclusively in the finishing
of aeroplanes. A variety of light
mahogany is used for the interior
trim Of cockpits and the like.
Several carloads of this trim goes
forward from the Nogales mills each
month
Cigar smokers of America, at
least portion of them, are indebted
to an Arizona concern for the ex-
cellent condition in which their
choice weeds" reach them.
This Arizona concern is a Nogales
lumber mill, from which some of the
large New York cigar manufactur-
ers get their raw materials. The
entire output of Chips" or log ends
of this mill is shipped to New York
for cigar box purposes. Several car
loads of chips" go forward each
week
These chips manufacturers de
clare, make the best containers for
cigars because the wood has a pc
culiar texture that tends to keep the
tobacco in perfect condition. For
this reason, the Arizona product is
N big demand throughout the east.
