The championship and near cham
pionship titles conferred on certain
local boxers have caused the New
York commission to become a
laughing stock in other States.
The arbitrary "sloughing' Of
several well-known managers Is a
horse of another color. When those
corns are trod on there is likely
to be an explosion.
The Frawley law was repealed
as a political measure to cover up
the mistakes Of an incompetent
commission. Will the present law
be ridden to death by an over
jealous commission?
To handle just such situations as
this the National Sports Alliance
was conceived by some big men
who are interested in boxing from
the spectators end as we'll as that
of the boxer and manager. The
Sports Alliance has a big member
ship and some big men to repre-
/ sent it.
The local situation is so strained
that the alliance will seek some
1 means OF easing 1t at q meeting
this week.
Senator James J. Walker, honor.
airy president Of the alliance, is the
father Of the present boxing law. To
him will probably be delegated the
task Of smoothing out the trouble.
Some of the managers who feel
they have been the victims Of unfair
discrimination are severely criticiz-
ing a certain deputy commissioner
who is prominent and active in car
rying out the orders of the commits
sion.
Nobody seems to know just who
devises these obnoxious measures,
but everybody can have three
guesses.
Chairman Muldoon, who seems to
think boxing is on the verge Of the
millennium, undoubtedly has the
courage of his convictions, but the
managers don't think he is respon.
sible for checking them UP so short.

For State Senator

The friends and supporters of Mir. Fred T. Golfer, announce his candidacy, for senator from Apa- che county, in Arizona State Senate, subject to the action of democratic primary Sept. 12 1922
 This action is taken because Mir. Colter has formerly proven his ability and willingness to do things for Apache County, as well as help develop and formu- late code of laws for Arizona, which is making this State a model of sane and pro gressive government.

Thirty-five Years Ago

From files of the Herald Aug. IS, 1887.
 ''Kid Swingle". whom many of our readers will remember on account of a little episode that happenedin Springer vile when there was an attempt made to arrest him, was found, short time since swinging to the limb of tree. These fellows always find the end of their rope.
 From private letters received we learn that J. V. Brighton, the man who shot and killed Ike Clanton some time since, has been arrested, and is in jail at Solo knoxville, Graham county. charged with murder in connection with this killing. We know nothing of the circumstances attending this affair. but have heard two stories with regard to it. The true facts will undoubtedly be brought out in the trial of Brighton. There were two wit nesses to the killing. we believe, and they can scarcely differ very materially as to the circumstances leading to it.
 Frank Wilson was hung at Prescott last Friday for the murder of Mir. Celvenger and his wife. Johnson, his supposed accomplice had his sentence respited until September 2Srd. owing to the confession of Wilson, who acknow- ledged that he had committed the crime alone and that Johnson had nothing to do with it.
 It has been stated on almost every side that the assessment roll of Apache county was less than in 1886, but the figures say otherwise. This county has kept pace with the foremost in the Ter ritory in it's appreciation of taxable property, and has outstripped a great many. When we take into considera- ton the disadvantages under which the county has labored-that it has been infested on two sides with a gang of the most notorious theives that ever harrassed an honest people-tha some who claim to be good citizens, and pro fess to be jealous of the county's good name and fame have never missed an opportunity to defame her and her of- ficialE, the result is most gratifying.

Chas. B. Ward

The following article taken from the report covering the State Democratic Convention at Denver, Colorado. ap- peared in the Rocky Mountain News of Denver. Colorado, Tuesday, August the 1st 1922. Olney Newell of Denver in- troduced special resolution to be for warded to Honorable Chas. B. Ward, formerly of Boulder, state senator, former Democratic Chairman and one of the most popular Democrats in the state who moved to Arizona twelve years ago and is now a candidate for Governor. The resolution follows:
 Resolved that the Democrats of Colorado in state assembly convened sned greetings to Honorable Chas. B.. Ward and the Democrats of Arizona and express their great satisfaction that he has been designated to lead the Democracy of the state in this cam paign. Loved and honored by the Democracy of Colorado he is entitled to the confidence and support of all clti- zens of his adopted state who would have as their chief executive a Jeffer- senian Democrat and honest man."
 This expression from the Democrats of Colorado can leave no doubt as to the character and ability of Mir. Ward and the esteem and respect which the people of Colorado have for him.

MESA

A large number of Mesa citi- zens gathered at the city hall plaza last Thursday to hear Charles B. Ward, Democratic nominee for governor of Arizona. He impressed his audience as one who believes in fair play. He paid tribute to the present ad- ministration, but thought they had been recreant to their pledges. He warned people against Republican propaganda.
 He euIogized President Wilson and mentione d some of the laws passed during his administration for the benefit of all the people.
 He does not regard the amend ments to the constitution as a political issue, is in favor of the primary law and of the amend ment allowing the formation of farmers cooperative marketing organizations. If defeated in Sept. by Mr. Hunt, he will work for him as in the past He said he had worked for woman suffer age, but did not express himself on prohibition. If elected he will get on the job and stay on it. He is opposed to a governor spending so much time away from the capitol. His talk was punctuated with several terse anecdotes.
 The audience was so impressed by his unaffected candid style that it interrupted him only three times to applaud.
 After the lecture it was inter- esting to stand around and listen to peoples opinions of the three gubernatorial candidates.
 Just line the three up and with one squint you can see Campbell is the biggest man, just see what he has done for the  cattle men," This from a cattle man.
 Farmers, Ward will stay on his job, help the farmers to get his land on a paying basis and he will be satisfied with one term of office. {"
 Hunt man, ''No governor has done as much for the laboring man as Hunt. He is the father of our state constitution, and first to introduce the White Car'' as a necessary adjunct to state officials.

 Last Thursday evening at 5 o'clock Perfecto Pena, an old time resident of St. Johns died at his home ranch on the Color ado river about 2 miles above the city, Mr. Pena had been in i'll health for the past year or more and death came as a relief as he had suffered intensely with cancer of the stomach. Funeral services were held in St. Johns at the Catholic church and the remains

 Mir. and Mrs. John T. Patter- son enjoyed an outing in the mountains last week, although they say the weather was a little to damp as it rained nearly every day. Mir. Patterson says that the grass and flowers were lovely but at night it was just a little too cool. He also says that the forest servlce now has fine road built out of Greer up on the east side to the fork of the river and fine camping place at this point with a number of accommodations for the camper.
 In this issue of the Herald you will see the announcement of w. H. Gibbons for State Represen- tative to represent Apache Coun- ty at the State Legislature, sub- ject to the will of the voters at the primary and general election this September and November. This is a case where the office 1 sought the man and not the man the office. MT. Gibbons was ask ed repeatedly to be candidate for the office but steadfastly re- fused, but at the last moment l when it seemed that it was rather difficult to get some one who was able to cope with conditions that do now exist and upon the de- mand or ernest solicitations of his 1 friends that he make the race Mir Gibbons accepted the position | by saying that he was no bigger than his party and if they said for him to make the race he would | do so. In placing Mir, Gibbons for this position we feel frank in saying that the party could not have made a better selection. he is able in every respect and fam iliar with conditions that exist in | county that noeds legislation and | he is also acquainted with many people of the State and especial ly so, with those who stand at | the head of State affairs and we feel that he should receive the hearty support of the Democratic | party.

work of building the temple for
fourteen years. In the meantime the
people under them went on working;
they built houses for themselves,
some of them luxurious in their ap-
po3ntments. Finally the Spirit of
God stirred up two men, one an
old man who had seen the glory of
the former house, and the other a
young man who was the grandson
of prophet. Haggai, the older, be-
gan his work first. We have only
four Of his messages; they are
definitely dated and given with pre-
cision and c1earness that is most en-
trancing. His first was on the first
day Of the sixth month; three weeks
later to the day the work began
and continued until it was finished.
Two months later Zechariah gave
his first message and three months
after that his most elaborate one.
1t would be most interesting to
study these here if We had time. But
under the inspiration of these mes
sages, particularly the first one of
Haggai, Zerubbabel and Joshua took
up the work again; and although
their adversaries tried in every way
to stop them they would not be
stopped until they had completed the
building four years later.
Their discoura cement and delay
had been due partly to their own
selfishness, Haggais first message
shows that; he was severe in his
denunciation of their selfishness in
allowing Gods house to lay unfin-
ished when all the time they were
building luxurious homes for their
own. Haggai's message might be
given to the twentieth century fol
lowers OF God. His own work and
houses of worship are often delayed
until our own are first completed.
Yes, says the usual one, recognize
that we should have an enlarged
church building, but 1 am building
my own home now and cannot give
anything to it, or at most but bit.
I know Gods work needs additional
men to man it adequately, but my
own business is expanding so that I
must put everything I can spare
into it.
All! the shame of it! that we do
not put His work first.
Gods Temples
Gods temples are still in process
Of construction. The church is the
temple of God. Paul said to the
Corinthian Christians, "Know we not
that We are the temple of God?" 1t
is a building made up of living
stones. How carefully are we work.
ing to complete it?
But the individual Christians body
is also the temple of God, the place
where His spirit dwells and through
which He manifests Himself. How
careful are we in constructing that
temple, and keeping it first? Has it
been dedicated yet, given wholly to
God for His use and His alone?

WASHINGTON. - Locating and

the national forests of Alaska are
the latest uses to which the airplana

ture.
1t has long been known that there
are many lakes on the headlandS ana

that do not appear on any map. Dur
.-., the New York-Nome flight made
by army aViators, lakes were ire
quently sighted which could not be
found on the latest and most autha1-
tic maps of the territory. Tales or
unknown water bodies are constant
ly being brought in by trappers and
prospectors Less than year ago
lake four and one-half miles Ions
and one-half mile wide was discover
ed at the head of the short bay. This
lake has over 1000 acres of surface
area and is less than one and one
quarter miles from tideWater, vet be-
cause of the surrounding country's
rough topography has remained I'M
known and unnamed.
Recognizing that many other of
these 'lost lakes" may be sources of
valuable water power, the forest SER
