Brewer Nav PIaV.

Brooke Brewer, Mercury coach,
played halfback for a minute or so
against the Georgetown A. c. in
order to make himself eligible for
the Mercury-Mohawk contest. If
there are any field goals to be tried
in the big clash, Brewer would be
an excellent selection for the duty.

Lawrence Taylor got only few
minutes to show his class as q

Indians probably will make more

carried the ball seven straight times
and never failed to make a good
gain.

If Zev, In Memoriam or My
Own want some action that
will close down the Pari-
Mutuels, let 'em address some
of their long distance telephone
calls to The Budget. They
won't get the receiver banged
up in their ears.
The Budget was originally
an ambulance horse. He hauled
the patients so fast they lost
their breath. That hospital
went insolvent.
He next got a job with a
fire company, but his speed
only famed the flames into
greater ambition. He lasted
just long enough to get back
into the engine house and his
civilian uniform.
When The Budget turned in
his tin helmet and rubber coat,
he also said goodbye to his
nose-bag-he, therefore, turned
honest. From that day to this
he never threw race that he
couldn't lose conscientiously.
Now, what The Budget wants
to do is race My Own, In
Memoriam and Zev singly, col
lectively or in tandem. He
will race them over anything
from ice to tanglefoot. Loser
to take nothing. Address, D.
G.. Health Department.
Personally, In Memoriam
sounds like a piece of crepe to
The Budget.

Outrageous Attempt to Aban-
don Old Time Road.

William Pitts, who has a Win
ter ranch a few miles west of
town, was here to purchase sup
plies Wednesday. He is an old
resident and property owner in
the Cataract Basin and is per-
fectIy familiar with the history
and development of that region
extending to the south rim of
the Grand Canyon. Mr.. Pitts
was somewhat surprised when
on last Friday he had occasion to
go to his property over what is
known as the Bass Stage Road
which for more than 25 years
has been used as a public road,
but which recently has been
fenced in by some stock outfit;
and he and his men were placed
under arrest as trespassers and
haStened into court IN Williams.
The judge, who is also an old
timer and knows the history Of
this old time stage road. promptly
decided no cause of action. 1t is
not probable that such high
handed outrages will be permitted
to pass unnoticed under the pre-
text that the supervisors of the
County have failed to declare this
a public highway for fear of the
expense of keeping it up, for
this road has been known to the
public for more than 20 years and
appears on the old road maps as
the Ash Fork and Grand Canyon
road. 1t is in fact the only road
making that region accessible.
One of the yagaries of the mon
opolistic lease law is to favor the
interests of big homesteaders
and stock men at the expense of
the small owner who depends
on the public range. They lease
University lands in connection
with the railroad grant lands and
in this way manage to drive out
the small settlers entirely. In
this connection it may be we'll to
take cognizance of Senate Bill
No 10 for the relief of these same
leasers of University land from
which our schools derive their
support.

ST. Patrick's Day.

Come all you cowboys and girlies, too,
Who have lots of time and nothing to do.
Throw your hull on your old cayuse.
Jump on his back and turn him loose;
Hook him deep, don let him stray,
But arrive in Wickenburg on ST. Pat
rick's day.
On the 18th and the 18th, too,
III tell you what we're going to do:
Well rope the calf and throw the bull.
Many a puncher his leather will pull
Astride the back of some broomtaied
hide
When he finds out he is hard to ride.
SO come on boys there'll be lots of jack
For those that stick on that bronco S
back
And then at night you can swing and
whirl
At FUELS Hall with your best girl.
Now come you punchers and puncher-
cites,
Ride right up and place your bets;
Fork your bronc and head this way,
And arrive in Wickenburg on ST. Pat
rick s Day. Bill Genung.

That bend in the road just be-

that the county will some day

occur at that point. There was
complete turn over of an auto

whole family narrowly escaped
death and broken limbs. The
drainage is defective and ought

When the municipality and all
