sHEARD PLAN is DISCUSSED
BY THE RIVER COMMITTEE

The Heard plan" for Colorado riv-
er development, calling for a confer
ence between the states of the lower
basin for the purpose of seeking an
understanding relative to the distri-
button Of the resources of the river
was presented to members of the COM
mittee of nine of Governor Hunts
Colorado river conference at meet
ing called by the governor at the re-
quest of Dwight B. Heard.
The Heard plan calls for the reach
ing of an agreement by the states Of
Arizona, California and Nevada on
river development projects, to be fol-
lowed by ratification of the Colorado
river pact.
Those attending the meeting in adj
dition to Governor Hunt and Mr..
Heard are Senator Mulford Winsor,
Judge Kibby, Thomas Maddox, Sem
ator Howard Cornick, John G. Green
way, Lewis Douglas and A. G. Nc
Gregor.
Though the river conference COM
mittee will take the plan into consid-
Grafton in seeking to formulate pro-
gram for Arizona in river develop
ment, SeVefal VINO are dLteilu1Iig tliS
meeting expressed the opinion follow
ing noon adjournment that Califor-
MAS designs on the Colorado river
are in such opposition to the rights
of Arizona that any conference be-
tween the states would prove futile.
Silence, on the recommendations Of
the committee of nine is still the
watchword, though from expressions
recently made by Governor Hunt and
members Of the river conference COM
mittee is seems certain that the en-
tire question of river development is
now considered as one upon which the
citizens of the state will be called on
to settle at an election, and not a mat
ter to be further debated at legislative
sessions.

DUBLIN HELD ON CHARGE
OF NUMBERING HOOD

Tom Dublin, 28-year-old ranch fore
man, who is alleged to have shot and
killed Andrew Hood, a trapper, in the
main street of Seligman, Ariz., on
November 10, was held for trial on a
charge of murder in the first degree
at preliminary hearing in justice
court at Seligman.
On the night of the shooting Dub
lin was exonerated by coroner's jury
on the plea that he shot in self-de-
fense. Dublin, however, Immediately
went to the sheriff's office in Pres
cott and voluntarily surrendered.
Eight witnesses, two of whom as
serted they saw Dublin shoot Hood,
testified at the preliminary hearing.
Dublin was in a pool hall when Hood
passed the building and later returned
flourishing long-bladed knife, wit
nesses asserted. Dublin, drawing his
pistol, left the pool hall and shot Hood
while the latter was six feet away
and advancing toward Dublin accord
ing to the testimony.
Following the preliminary hearing,
Dublin was released on bond Of $10,-
600, furnished by three cattlemen Of
Selignan.

were given pasteur treatment. The
dog Killed the other day had not bit
ten any cEe, but DR.. Scanlon believes
he likely cid bite other dogs.
Dumb rabies takes several mcnths
to develop after a dog or person is
bitten. Sometimes it takes as long
as a year. But it eventually does de-
velop and one of the first discernible
symptoms is difficulty in swallowing,
as though the animal had a bone in
its throat. In dumb rabies the log
is MOI always vicious, but an acciden-
tai scratch fronf one of its teeth would
transmit the rabies. In fact, the sal
iva of sn affected dog is dangerous.
Keep your hands away from the
mouth of a dog showing symptoms,
DR.. Scanlon advises.
1t is believed that the dog shot last
summer caught the disease from a
tourists dog. But the coyotes in the
Canyon Diablo and Needmore sections
are full Of rabies, and some dog bitten
there may have brought it to town.
The prevalent belief that rabies is
confined to the summer months is
nonsense, DIR. Scanlon says. 1t will
develop at any time of the year.
Without doubt, he says, other Flag
staff dogs have been inoculated and
serious results may develop unless
owners of dogs are watchful.

Last Quarter

Camp kicked to the 30-yard line and
Jerome in turn kicked to our 40 yard
line. Normal went ten yards and lost
the ball on down on their own 40
yard line. The ball stayed in the
middle of the field for some time un-

pushing the man with the ball This
gave the ball to Jerome on their own

them 16 yards. Recovery Of a tumble
by Herring gave the ball to Normal
on the 25-yard line. Camp and Heck
athorn went to the 10-yard line, on
end runs. Jerome got the ball on
their own 5-yard line and kicked to
the 30-yard line. Camp made Is yards
on a run around right end, and Fill
lerup made 10 around the same end.
Camp and Fillerup each made small
gains through the line, bringing the
ball to the one-yard line. Heekathorn
then went through right tackle for a
touchdown. A drop kick for goal
failed.

in tearing them down. A. barricade

"The other accident was the result
Of careless driving on wet roads, not

II would suggest that you mail a
copy of this letter to the resident who
made the complaint"
Following the receipt of Laprailx's
letter, representative of The Sun
made further inquiries.

travel the road referred to report
there was lantern hung out for a

They also say there were barriers, /"
usually a small tree limb laid flat
across the roads. In some in

flimsy uprights, soon knocked over

Often barrier was put one side of
a culvert and not on the other. Often
detours were practically impossible.
Lately high centers Of mud have been
placed atop of various culverts, so
that it is easier taking detour than
riding over the supposedly finished
culvert.

doing his best to maintain barricades.

Last Friday evening at the Federat-
ed church social was enjoyed by the
congregation. Games and music with
refreshments made the time pass
happily. Next Sunday evening the
boys, and girls of the Federated church
will present short playlet during the
service entitled "The Philippian Jail
er." Last Sunday services, at the
Federated church were devoted to
missionary education in the morning
and public school education in the
evening. In the morning sermon the
pastor pointed out: "We are, debtors
to the Jews for our religion, to the
Romans for our legal code, to the
Greeks for art, to the Asiatic and
African peoples for philosophy, sci
ence,. ETC." Pay your debts.
Eve should support missions for
they.sare the way in which we are
teaching the principles of industry,
agriculture, hygiene, to backward
races" The evening sermon em-
phasized education as teaching the pu-
pil to think for himself, self-reliance,
and so overcome ignorance. To learn
to do by doing things is the only way
to overcome superstitiens, fear,
apathy. Self-expression and not luck,
brings success. Also relate each thing
to the ultimate end or goals for moth
ing can stand alone. Self control.
not prejudice, will win in the long
run.

GOLD SPURS AS HEIRLO0MS
German Gypsies Astonished Berlin

These gypsies recently created a
furore In police circles by offering
heavy solid gold spurs for sale In shops
which buy old gold and other precious
metal. The metal dealers advised the
police and sought their aid In finding
out how the wanderers came to have
such valuable trappings.
An investigation showed that all the
members of the band had similar spurs
and had owned them for generations.
They were heirlooms of the tribe and
the owners had decided to part with
some of them for the purpose of rails
ing more money to engage in horse
trading on a larger scale than their
deprecated paper marks made pos
