COL. BANTA CORRECTS
 MORE ANCIENT HISTORY

Prescott, Ariz., April 4, 1922. Coconino Sun.
 My Dear Colonel: I see you have another "hearsay" story in The Sun. MT. Flake is about all wrong. He is correct in two particulars, viz: the names of Joe Waters, Breed and Blanchard. I make no reference to the Scott affair. The two prisoners had their examination before the writer, then probate judge and were committed without bail. That night the two men were hanged inside the jail by vigilantes. They were not captured by Navajos. I could tell all the facts, but to tell the truth, Col onel, am getting tired of calling down so many "hearsay" stories.
 Yours truly,
 A. F. BANTA. P.S. - Another lynching took place in the jail prior to the taking off of the above two.

ELECTION is
NEXT TUESDAY
No Contest For City Of
fices Will Result in
Very Light Vote

The general city election will be
held next Tuesday, December s at
the usual polling places. The
polls will be open from a. m. un-
til 8 p. M.
As has been the case for many
years the general election is mer-

and as result all contests were
eliminated in November.
The ticket to be voted upon is
as follows: mayor, H. w. Des.
oranges; councilman at large, H
C. Schmidt; councilman, first ward
H. B. Terril, four-year term; and
R. H. Anderson, two-year term;
councilman second ward, Guy ].
Hayden; councilman third ward, j.
Mcdowell; treasurer, w. G. King;
clerk, Frank Bentley; attorney C.
l.. Holcomb.
Unless some "sticker" opposi-
tion develops there will probably
be no more than a mere handful
of voters go to the polls.

START SEAL SALE
FIRST OF MONTH
Seventy-Five Thousand Dollars
Worth of Stickers is Wash
ington's Quota.

With the machinery throughout
Washington all ready to set in mo-
tion for the fifteenth annual sale
of Christmas seals, the Washing
ton tuberculosis Association and
it's thirty affiliated leagues will
touch the spring on December 1,
that will release the ten million
dainty little>stickers now distri-
buted throughout the state and
start the process by which these
will return as money to carry on
the tuberculosis work of county,
state and nation another year.
When $4,000, 900, was set as The
National target in the seal sale,
each state voluntarily assumed a
proportion of that amount based
on population and records in pre-
vious sales. On hits basis $75, 600
is Washington's share or little
more than five seals for each man,
woman and child in the state.
As a result of work already ac-
complished, not only has the death
rate been reduced nationally, but a
material reduction has occurred in
the state, through hte efforts Of
the visiting tuberculosis nurses in
twenty-four counties, the sanatoria
care provided in five counties and
the ceaseless educational campaign
of the thirty leagues throughout
the state. Such a record is sure
ly worth SC to everyone in the
state as matter of pride, while
the health protection given is be-
yond price. Everyone should per-
sonally take an active interest in
the sale and insure a successful
wears work for 1923.

DUFFY PLANS
POOL IN PARK
Will Operate Swimming
Hole and Dancing Pa
vilion Next Summer

Hey! Skin-nay come on over!
The old swimmin hole is to be in
a new place.
c. E. Duffy will within a short
time begin work on a modern
swimming pool which he will oper-
ate on his tract at the foot of
Washington street. The pool is
to be 5OXS0 feet and ranging in
depth from a foot and, half to 8
feet. It will be filled with water
pumped from a well and warmed
to a suitable temperature. The
pool will be under roof and thor
oughly equipped with dressing
rooms and other accommodations.
The kiddies wading pool will be
roped from the swimming tank SO
that the kiddies may indulge in
their water play without danger of
getting beyond their depth.
Mr.. Duffy this winter will also
erect a dancing pavilion so by SO
feet which will be operated two
nights each week next summer
The pavilion will be rooted and
the sides screened. 1t will be
equipped with a large concert
phonograph which will enable the
proprietor to make a charge of SO
cents for an evenings dancing.
1t is the intention of Mr.. Duffy
to sell season coupon books which
will be good at either the pool or
the pavilion. Holders of season
coupon books will be furnished
permanent lockers at the pool.
The pool and pavilion will be
located just north Of the tourist
park which is operated jointly by
Mr.. Duffy and the Commercial
club, These new features will un-
doubtedly attract tourists to the
Kennewick park and at the same
time provide amusement and rec
reation for the local people.
Swimming is one of the most
popular summer pastimes of the
Kennewick people but facilities are
not the best. During the heighth
of the swimming season the water
in the canal becomes so full of
impurities as to render the daily
plunge q menace to health and
there is also a growing protest on
the part of the directorate of the
irrigation district against using
the canal for swimming hole.
For the more hardy swimmers the
river provides ample facilities but
offers little attractions to the kid
dies and the adult beginners. For
this reason Mr.. Duffy believes
there is an opening here for a WELL
appointed swimming pool.

POTS
NEXT SPRING
Desgranges Says Orchard
Should Be Equipped To
Fight Frost

years ago tn is community
was one-hundred per cent organiz-
ed for protecting the orchards
against frost injury by smudging.
Not only were the growers, hut
the stownspeople as well were mo-
bilized for active duty on frosty
mornings: Not only this but a
plan Of community purchase of
pots and oil was put into opera
ton. Although results were satis-
factory the general use of smudge
pots was abandoned until today
only here and there is an orchard
ist using them.
h. w. Desgranges, local manager
for the Yakima Valley Fruitgrow-
ers' association is Of the opinion
that the :. community smudging
campaign should be revived. Mr..
Desgranges says:
Every year when damaging
frost occurs there is great interest
in the question of. smudging, but
as time passes people forget and
there is no provision made for the
future. The half million dollar
loss to this community last spring
could have been largely avoided by
the judicial use Of smudge pots.
This system is no longer an expert
ment but has been tried out here
and in many other places and has
proven successful. It would seem
the part Of wisdom for this district
to awaken now and make provision
for the coming spring. This ques-
tion is as vital to the business man
as it is the grower. His business
prosperity depends upon the farm
ers ability to buy and to pay his
bills after he buys.
"The big problem that confronts
us pow,is that of financing the un-
dertaking. With the loss Of most
of our crop and disastrously low
prices prevailing for fruit many
growers will find themselves fin
ancially embarrassed to do what
they know they should and want
to do.
"This question is of such vital
Importance to the community that
it should be discussed now and
ways and means provided to carry
it into effect.
Growers organizations will no
doubt find some way of financing
their members but this only par
tally solves the problem. There are
others who must have assistance.
''The Big "Y" management is
giving the matter serious, consid-
GRAFTON and is now testing out the
efficiency of various makes Of pots
and this information will soon he
available, but this is not an in
dividual matter, but one in which
the entire community shauld take
interest"

R. r. MONEY
is BIG HELP
Union Pacific's Local Pay
roll Nearly Quarter Mil
lion in 1922

H. NJ. West, district freight and
passenger agent Of the Union Pa
cific system, who was in Kenne-
wick the first of the week from
Yakima, says Kennewick has some
thing to be thankful for. He says
the money his company is turning
loose in this community is in a
measure compensating for the dis
couraging crop conditions.
"By the end of the year, the
Union Pacific System will have ex-
pended upward Of $225,000 in
wages alone during 1922 in the
vicinity of Kennewick", said Mr..
West. ''This includes contract
work on our new Columbia River
Bridge as well as wages paid at
Kennewick to train crews, section
gangs, watchmen, station forces
and the like. Under Ine present
arrangement for detouring our
trains over the N. P. bridge while
the Columbia bridge is in process
Of construction, all freight crews
on the Yakima line are turned at
Kennewick and many of the men
are marking their homes here.
sOur new bridge, when complet-
ed, will represent an investment Of
something like $1,SOO,OO0. About
100 men are at present employed,
fifty of them with fsmilies. Local
men are given preference in >em-
ployment wherever it is possible
to do so, according to the bridge
engineers, and l understand they
are generally able to use local labor
except where skilled workmen are
required. All commissary supplies
are purchased locally; in fact, all
supplies needed that are obtainable
at Kennewick will be bought here.
"The Kennewick, merchants have
no doubt felt the effect of these
expenditures. Conservatively esti-
mater, it means over $100, 900 new
money brought directly into the
community during this year alone
and as construction work on the
bridge will likely continue for
nearly two years more, the local
benefits will readily be seen. As
work has just gotten well under
way, wage expenditures during
1928 will likely increase largely
over what they are this year.

Attorney General Holds
that McNeill has Two
Years To Serve
SUGGESTS THAT
COURT DECIDE
: DeBow Says He Will De
mland That He Be Per-
mitted to Qualify

In an opinion given to County
Prosecutor Hamilton, Attorney
General Thompson holds that C. E.
DeBow who was elected county
commissioner for the second dis
trict is not entitled to the office
but that Alex McNeill will hold
the office by appointment for two
years longer.
While the attorney general gives
this as his opinion he says in his
letter to Mr.. Hamilton that the
matter should be taken to court
for settlement.
The question as to who is to be
commissioner arises over an ap-
parent conflict between. the state
constitution and the state statutes.
The constitution enumerates what
county officers there shall be and
delegates to the Legislature the
authority to prescribe their duties,
fix their compensation, terms of
office, etc. 1t further provides
that the county commissioners
shall have the authority to fill
vacancies but says that such ap-
pointments shall terminate at the
next general election.
In fixing the terms Of office OF
the several county officers the
legislature says that appointments
to fill vacancies shall be for the
unexpired terms.
McNeill is holding office now
by appointment and the term Of
his predecessor, DR.. French, would
not have expired until January
1925, and under the ruling Of the
attorney general McNeill will hold
office until that time and DeBow
will be denied seat.
Mr.. DeB0w informed the Courier
-sIsa sousas!p 5uoI IsAo 1sl1odsH
phone that while he had not for
mulated any definite plan of action
he is not going to lay down. eIn
the general election the people of
the county said that they wanted
; mes not McNeill, for their commits
sion," said Mr.. DeBow. 81 would
consider that I were shirking my
duty were I not to make fight
for the office. The attorney gen.
eral suggests that the question be
taken to the courts and / guess
there is where it will end"
The situation is perhaps one Of
the most interesting that has ever
arisen. in county politics in the
state, for the reason that McNeill
is now "in the same boat" as in
1916. In 1915 he was appointed
county. commissioner to succeed p.
J. Ward who resigned. Ward was
elected in 1914 for four-year
term, which would not have expir-
ed until January 1919. At the
general election in. 1916 McNeill
became a candidate on the demo-
cratic ticket and was defeated by
E. c. Houston who took office in
January 1917 regardless of the fact
that the term to which McNeill
as appointed had two years more
to run. At that time the eligibili-
ty of Houston was not questioned.
1t is rumored that in light oi tie
result of the election McNeill will
not attempt to hold the office.
However, if the opinion of the at
torney general holds, McNeillss
resignation would not automatical-
ly seat DeBow. There would be
a vacancy to be filled by appoint
