EX-OFFICERS NAVAJO
COUNTY CONVICTED

Ed Gardner and w. E. Kelley, ex-
officers of Navajo county, who at
Prescott were found guilty In federal
district court of a violation of the
Dyer act, that against the transporta-
.tion of stolen automobile from one
state to another, and of conspiracy IN
connection with the theft of the car,
have been sentenced by Judge Fred G.
Jacobs to serve four years each in the
penitentiary at Fort Leavenworth,
Kansas, on the direct charge and cne
year and one day each on the con-
spiracy charge, the sentences to run
consecutively.
Kelly and Gardner We're convicted
of conspiring to violate the Dyer act
and with violating it by transporting
stolen automobile in interstate COM
merce. The jury received the case at
$50 Monday afternoon and returned
The verdict to Judge Jacobs at $50.
The case had occupied three full trial
days. n
The entire case hinged on the "de-
coy'' letters which the prosecution
charged were not decoys at all but
part of clever plot of extortion. The
trial was marked by much oratory and
clever legal repartee but at no time
did the heated argument on either
side reach point where the court had
to interfere.
Mr.. Bilby and Mr.. Cradle appearing
for the prosecution, contended that no
innocent men, engaged as officers Of
the law, would have written the let
ters introduced as evidence. Messrs.
Jordan and O'Sullivan, for the de-
fense, asserted that the cleverness of
attempted trap was distinctly prov
en- by the ingeniousness Of the let
ters. One of the high lights of the
trial was the attack by the defense on
Enoch Wilson, the co-conspirator, who
was the prosecutions chief witness.

TOURISTS STAYING HERE
LONGER NOW THAT OLD
SUMMER HAS ARRIVED

The change to real summer wealth
er, delayed to later than usual this
YEAR, while perhaps not greatly in
creasing the amount Of tourist travel
here, is at any rate lengthening the
stay with us Of many of the tourists.
The. subsistence of the spring winds
also makes them feel. more like stay
ing here, once they get q real taste
of our average summer climate, which,
bevond doubt, is as delightfully."- COM
Portable as anywhere else in the world.
The recent cold weather worked
transformation from last summer le-'
sort conditions. Last year Montezuma
lodge at Mormon lake was crowded
early in the season, Oak Creek not
getting a great many people. Ihls.
year conditions were reversed, the
winds making it less pleasant at the
lake and, though Lolomai lodge at
Oak Creek is not open this year, that
resort has been frequented more than
before in years.
I. H. Swisher, secretary and nanag-
er Of the company operating Monte
yuma lodge, is getting many letters
from people who intend soon to De
there and the number of campers IS
increasing.
Mrs. Estelle Lindsay and Stanley

lar Lake Mary camp, report that IN
spite of the weather conditions busi-
ness has been much better there this
year than last year up to now.

SUNDAY WILL GET WELL.

J. D. Gonzales of this city is at
Mercy hospital recovering from injur-
les received Sunday afternoon at 4
o'clock when he was run into at the
corner of Aspen avenue and San
Francisco street by a car driven by
Seberano Gomez, who clerks at the
Marler drug store.
Gonzales IS lucky, for no bones were
broken, though he was badly bruised.
He and a companion were crossing
San Francisco street when Nh. Gomez
came east on Aspen and turned south
into San Francisco. Both men were
struck, but Gonzales companion was
thrown to one side and clear of the
car, Gonsalez being struck square and
dragged several feet before the car
was stopped. ess

riding in his Chevrolet touring car

The injured man was taken at once to
the hospital and it was at first
thought by those who witnessed the
accident that he had little chance of
recovery. But the accident evidently
looked good deal worse than it was.
The ear didn't get on top Of Gonsalez,
who was either caught by his clothing
and dragged so as to keep free of the
wheels, or caught on with his hands
and held.

COLORADO COMPACT
, NEEDED BY STATES
SAYS HUBERT WORK

The Importance of the Colorado riv-
er pact to western states lies not alone
in the equitable division of the waters
for Irrigation purposes, but IN the la-
tent power possibilities of the stream
to be developed, according to Secre-
tary of the Interior Work, who is in
Denver with President Harding's par
ty ON its journey west.
Talking with newspaper men at
republican state headquarters, Secre-
tary Work declared that the Colorado
river pact wipes out virtually all state
lines in so far as the division of water
is concerned at protects the rights
of each each state" the secretary said,
"and if the division of water is sys-
tematized it can be used over and over
again. Particularly IS this true with
regard to power.
Secretary Work said that the policy
of the federal power commission, OF
which he is a member, will be to fur
ther power development on the stream
to the fullest extent. He pointed out
that one provisional permit for pow
er grant has been granted by the COM
mission for a dam at Flaming Gorge,
Utah. which will back up an immense
body of water that viii extend beyond
the Utah Wyoming line. Only one
Colorado project is contemplated at
present. power plant at Kremmling
on the Frazier, a. tributary Of the Col
orado. No permit, it was said, has
been issued for this plant.

with beautiful specimens of the Queen
of flowers. The maidens caused nosl
little flutter among the audience when
they began at the end of the dance
to scatter and cast away the fragrant
roses which thus served double pur-a
pose.
Two little plays put on by the boys
and the young ladies were a. striking
illustration Of the training. and care
full enunciation for which the Sisters
pupils are we'll known.
AS it was so tellingly explained at
the opening of the program when the
Rev. Padre Vabre addressed the grad
Euating class and the audience, the
parochial school is great boon to a.
town and necessary adjunct to a.
Catholic. church. The Catholics are
ready to impose upon themselves the
extra burden Of supporting their own
school, although paying, their full
share of taxes for the building and up
keep of the public schools. The idea
is that the more motives we can give
to the boy or girl for being a good
Christian the better citizens they will
both be. Hence the establishment of
parochial schools, where all the requlr-s
ed, secular knowledge and physical
training is promoted and impaired un-s
der a decided and well-defined rehg-s
ious influence and system. In other
words to state the case in a NUTSHELL
A Catholic chuld is bound to be a
good citizen Patriotism and Cathol-.a
icism always go hand in hand. So a.
Catholic chuld is taught what he cam
not get elsewhere in its own parochiall
school. There its young mind IS
taught to know the existence of a per-a
sonaI God to whom we have to render
an account of the manner in which We
serve both Him and our country. lnH
the words of Napoleon, who answered.
those who were complaining that the
Alsatians were not French because
they spoke like Germans: "True, they
talk like Germans, but they shoot like
Frenchmen." 81
SO also we may be thought to speak
a different language in our relations
with God, but let it be known that the
experience of the World war will ever
be repeated when the country requires
it. Catholics may pray like foreign
ers, but they surely shoot like Ameri-
cans" Ask the ex-kaiser.

WANT SENATOR WINSOR TO
SPEAK ON COLORADO PACT

An effort will be made to secure
Senator Milford Winsor for an ad-
dress on. the Colorado river pact DUR
ing his visit here and at Grand Can
yon. Senator Winsor is president of
the state senate and one of the fore
most advocates for the ratification of
the pact. The senator has delivered
a number of stirring addresses on the
subject in the southern part of the
state during the past month before
different clubs and chambers Of COM
merce.
He has made close study of the
subject since its inception and was one
of its staunch supporters when the
compact was before the senate for
ratification.
The people of Flagstaff would be
glad to hear him discuss the subject
and hope that date may be arranged.

MORMON LAKE STATES
LARGEST NATURAL
BODY OF WATER.

Northern Arizona features the.
greatest outdoor playground one could
ever have, and is far beyond the ex-.
pectations of the people who have
never travelled through this beautiful
country, is the way Mr.. Pinney class
flies it.
The road to Flagstaff, out of Pres
eott by way of Chino valley to Ash
fork is also easy to travel, Mr.. Pinney
says, and the Old Santa Fe trail Is in
wonderful condition from Needles to
Holbrook with just. one exception, the
stretch between Flagstaff and Wins
low which must be taken at low
rate Of speed.
The travel over the Santa F'e trail
through northern Arizona towns IS
very heavy as thousands of cars from
almost every state in the union are
passing through going both east and
west. Free auto camping grounds can
be found all along the road, and at
Maine another good road leaves the
highway going directly north to the
Grand Canyon which is travelled ten
to one more by cars bearing other
state license plates than those OF ARR
IONA, Mr.. Pinney states.
From Winslow to Holbrooll, thence
to Springerville and the trout streams
and lake of the White Mountains the
roads are reported to be In such good
condition that hundreds of parties are
going over them daily not only enjoy
ing the beautiful scenery, cool wealth
er, but also fishing for rainbow and
mountain brook trout that can't be
equalled any place in the country.
Among the outdoor seekers who are
found in this vicinity it is impossible
to find any one that Is not willing to
boast the greatness of such wonder
full land.
The road leading. out of Phoenix
from the Roosevelt dam north
through Phoenix and Payson and on
up into Cooley among the pine COW
cred White mountains is the one fav-
ored most by southern Arizona peo-
pie. This road is in good condition,
and is now. being travelled by hum
dreds of machines that pass over it
each week headed for the trout
streams where the occupants will
spend most of the summer.
From Flagstaff to Lake Mary is but
eight miles. At this spot there are
always a great many anglers along
the banks fishing for crappie, sun
perch and catfish. On south from
Mary's Lake about II miles is beauti-
full Mormon Lake where bass, crappie,
perch and catfish are caught in what
is claimed to be the largest natural
body of water in the state. Oak Greek
can also be reached over good road
from Flagstaff, travelling southeast
about 18 miles where rainbow and
mountain brook trout are said to be
very plentiful in its waters.
Taking it all in all there is no bet
ter place in all the world that Ari-
zona people could spend their vaca-
tions enjoying a good rest, thrilling
experiences and real outdoor life, at
a reasonable cost as can be had in the
northern Arizona mountains.

maker who ran q jewelry store in the
old Coalter building, now the Dress

ton, but it was put off year and
he went to Black Hills and later To-
Gated at Salt Lake City, where he has
been doing prosperous business. he

LATE FROSTS CUT DOWN
PROSPECTIVE SPUD CROP

Few of our farmers have escaped
the frequent frosts that have hit US
within the last few days. 1t has been
a great source of loss to the farmers,
many of whom have been knocked out
of hundreds of dollars worth of work
and seed. Many fields of spuds, our
principal crop, have been so damaged
that it is unlikely they will yield more
than quarter of as much as ordin-
arily. The frosts coming so late have
made replanting practically out OF
the question, as there would hardly be
time for the crop to mature before the
late frosts come due. Coconino coun-
ty's potato crop will be much less this
wear.

Remember that the big two-day con-
vention of Arizona livestock men viii
be held in Flagstaff on Monday and
Tuesday, July and 10, and make
your reservations now.
A certain and systematic means Of
marketing cattle is the vital issue be-
fore the stockmen of Arizona, says
H. M. Rice, secretary of the cattle
mems association, and from the Flag
staff meeting will come a decided plan
for definite action as to marketing
both beef and feeder cattle in this
state.
In all sections of the state COW men
are constantly discussing the dire need
stockmen during the recent selling
seasons, especially this past spring of
1923, have experienced q stagnated
condition which allowed hut a portion
of the cattle throughout the state to
be sold.
Steer cattle, if good, have been dis
posed Of at only fair prices, leaving.
all cattlemen with a large number Of
short aged steers on hand. No She.
stock has sold and as consequence
the ranges are fast becoming loaded
with an over supply of stock cattle,
the surplus Of which should be sold
each season. Unless such cattle are
removed the ranges are over-stocked
and the cow men lose that annual
source of income from the she-Stock
that should be sold.
One of the plans heard discussed by
cattlemen for solving the market prob
lem is that each natural geographic
district or community of cattlemen
band together and secure the services
of competent seller to dispose of all
cattle they desire to sell.
This seller would go into any section
of the country to find out the needs
of the feeders at that particular place
and learn what class and quality of
cattle they wished to buy, and then,
perhaps ON small scale at first, ship
to them the class of cattle they want
ed. Let these feeder men learn to de-
pend upon that party for their sup
plies of cattle, and thus build up di-
rect trade that would constantly ex-
pand and become permanent.
This seller of cattle, representing
some district in Arizona, would, In his
travels, be ever on the watch and con-
stantly in touch with market condi-
tions and prices, so that the cattlemen
he represented would receive just what
each class of cattle was worth at that
time.
By this method all classes of cat
tie would be disposed of each season
at fair market prices, and the COW
men realize that this is the keynote to
success in the cattle business in Arl-
zona.
This is but one of, the many possible
plans that are being thought out as a
probable and assured means of mar
keting Arizona cattle.
At Flagstaff on July 8 and 10 the
stockmen of Arizona will carve out
some such plan and should inaugur-
ate it at once in the districts of the
state where cow men are ready and
anxious to work together.
Cattlemen will travel from all cor
ners of the state to be present at this
midsummer meeting. Monday and
Tuesday, July 8 and 10, directly fol-
lowing the Frontier Days celebration,
are the dates and the citizens of Flag
staff are making ample preparations
to welcome them.

HENRY A. MORSE, THE BIsBEE
"PONZT" GIVES HIMSELF UP

Henry A. Morse, who has been
termed the "Ponzi of the West" has

his brother from northern California
at Cananea, Morse wired the sheriff's 5

Deputies were sent to Naco in re-

arrival Morse surrendered and was
taken. to Bisbee for trial.
