SPANISH AMERICAN
WAR BETERANS ARE
ORGANIZING ARIZONA

r. II. Marine, adjutant, and L. E.
Johnson, commander of the local camp
of Spanish American War Veterans,
have been invited to Prescott, with
as many members as will go, on Feb
ruary II, to install the newly elect
ed officers of the Joe Wheeler camp
of that city. 1t is one of the most
flourishing camps in the country and
will take in more than 80 new mem
bers on the twenty-second. The new
Neglected commander of the camp is
J. w. Winkelbach, national aide-de-
camp and special representative of
National Commander in-C Chief Antonio
Entenzio.
A convention of the state camps
will be held within few weeks in
Prescott to organize department of
Arizona. The four camps in the state
are at Flagstaff, Phoenix, Globe and
Prescott, and drive is being made
to organize camps at Douglas, Bisbee
and Tucson.
Arizona has the proud distinction of
having furnished more volunteers in
proportion to population for the war
with Spain than any other state. It
is felt that if the state is pretty well
organized before the 25th national
convention meets in Chattanooga
this year it may be possible to have
Phoenix selected as the place of the
national convention next year.

ELECTION CHANGES
PROPOSED IN BILL

Three important changes in the
election code are proposed by the SEN
ate committee on suffrage and cleo
tions in the following bills:
S. B. 81 provides that the state COM
mittee of each party shall meet at
Phoeniv on the first Monday of May
of each year in which presidential
candidates are to be selected, for the
purpose of choosing delegates to the
national conventions; the bill provides
also that the national delegates shall
then select the national committeeman
for Arizona, to serve four years. Un-
der the present regime, the commit
teeman is selected by the state COM
mittee instead of the delegates.
S. B. 9 eliminates the party coun-
ell and substitutes a state platform
assembly for each party. Each pre-
cinct would be entitled to represen-
tation in the platform assembly on
the basis of one for each $50 votes
or major fraction. The assembly
would meet on the last Monday of the
same month in which the primary
election is held.
S. B. 80 provides that where pri-
MAJ SdliulQ4bG lCGCdNOo CN PSA NOAAS
of all the votes cast for candidates,
partisan and non partisan, for any
particular office, then such candidate
shall be the only nominee for such
office whose name shall appear on the
ballot for the general election, pro-
vided, however, that the ballot shall
provide blank space for the writing
in Of any name by the voter.
The senate at its afternoon session
Monday passed the electrical district
bill, designed to take the place of the
act declared unconstitutional in part
by the supreme court, and senate bill
65, amending the law restricting the
grazing of sheep and goats on cattle
ranges. Under the amended range
act it is a misdemeanor to allow
sheep or goats to Craze or pasture on
cattle ranges. It provides that sheep
or goats being moved from their ac-
customed ranges to shipping points
while off of designated stock drive
way and crossing a cattle range must
travel at least shree miles per day.

LYCEUM CONCERT AT
NORMAL WEDNESDAY
SCORED A BIG HIT

The concert at Normal auditorium
Wednesday night attracted a good
sized audience. And the audience was
amply apaid
Miss Irene Stolofsky, the dainty,
pretty violinist, quite captivated her
hearers. Her tone effects were SUI
perb, her technique masterful.
Miss Magdalen Massman, piano So
loist and accompanist, did really mar
velous playing. Speed and octave
work were remarkable and expression
accurate. Both artists were the best
in their lines that ever have appear
ed here.
George B. Imbrie, baritone, did not
take quite as we'll as his compatr1ots.
He has presence, fine strong voice
and good expression, but his efforts
failed to get across as hoped, prob
ably, as he said afterward, because
the altitude affected him. But all
numbers, his included, were warmly
encored, and each of the three were
gracious in response.
This was one of the regular five
number Redpath lyceum attractions
scheduled by the Normal for this win
ter and it scored a big success. There
are two numbers still to come.
The program Wednesday night:
Miss Stolofsky, violinist-
Aria, by Lott.
Forsaken, by Dimond.
George Imbrie, baritone
Requiem, by Homer.
Hear Me, Wind and Waves, Handel.
Miss Stolofsky, violin.

Kreisler.
Scenes from Cards, by Hubay.
George Imbrie, baritone.
Even Bravest Heart, from Faust.
Miss Massman, piano.
Ballet Music. from Rosamond, by
Schubert.
By the Sea, by Schubert.
Tenth Rhapsody, by Liszt.
George Imbrie, baritone.
Where My Dear Lady Sleeps, by
Smith.
Little Irish Girl, by Moore.
Miss Stolofsky, violin.
Ave Marie, by Schubert-Wilhelmj.

RARE PLANTS IN NATIONAL
FORESTS OF SOUTHWEST

Forest officers collecting plants for
study in range management have dis
covered uncommon grasses and weeds
in National Forests of Arizona, ac-
cording to District Forester F. G. w.
Pooler in charge of the southwestern
district of the forest service.
In order to familiarize themselves
with the many important plants that
make up the forage for the 35O,000
cattle and horses and the 100000
sheep that use the national forest
grazing grounds in Arizona, field
men of the forest service gather spec
linens of the forage plants for study
and reference. These specimens are
sent to Washington for Identification
and labelling by the expert botanfsts
of the department of agriculture, and
a collection is kept in the national
herbarium.
Only common and important range
plants, states the district forester, are
collected ordinarily 1t is necessary,
grazing to be able to distinguish be-
tween the plants that are relished by
the stock and those that are poisonous
and worthless and occasionally, in the
study of the range, in some out-of-the-
way place, grasses, weeds or shrubs
may be found growing plentifully
while they are almost unknown in
other regions.
Thirteen such grasses and weeds
not reported heretofore from any nat
ional forest in the west have been
found on the Arizona forest ranges.
-Four of these plants were discovered
on the Coconino forest in northern
Arizona and the other nine on the
Tonto which comprises large portion
Of the watershed of the Roosevelt
reservoir in the southern part of the
state.
One shrub belonging to the Pents-
temon family, according to Mr.. Pool
er, is of particular interest. 1t has
small red flowers shaped somewhat
like little honeysucl1les and is very
rare. The first recorded finding
while in flower is by Grazing Exam
iners Talbot and Hill and the only
previous record of the plant in any
stage concerns fragment obtained
on Williams River in 1854 by the
Whipple exploring party.

which had come over in the MayAower
with their owners, the viands and meats
must have looked fit for royal banquet.
There were turkeys, bigger and fatter
than their defendants of today, and with
gamy flavor which the bird of the domes-
tic barnyard has lost. Whole sides of
vension hobnobbed with denizens of the
briny de-. Indian meal appeared on the
table in many forms, evolved by the in
genuity of the doughty Pilgrim mother.
1t was about three hundred years ago
that Thanksgiving was first celebrated in
this country by the Pilgrims, in grateful
acknowledgment of the first harvest in the
colonies, and perhaps in all the varied
phases through which the day has passed
there was never one more picturesque in
surroundings, or more hearty in thanks.
The families in the little Plymouth colony
were scarcely numerous enough to have
their own home feasts, so they all ate and
drank together, their guests being King
Massasoit and nearly one hundred Indians
of his tribe. What wonderful sight it
must have been-the Pilgrims, in their
quaint, homemade garments; the Indians,
in primeval costume, while the grand old
forests of America formed on three sides
background for the picture, and in front
stretched away the broad ocean, over
which these founders of nation had safe
ly come.
New England practically monopolized
the Thanksgiving holiday for nearly two
centuries. Still, its celebration was gain
ing advocates, and as time passed discus
sions were frequently started by different
states as to its adoption. Its first official
recognition by the state of New York was
in 1917. 1t travelled as far south as Vir-
ginia in 1887, and in 1883 eight of the
southern states proclaimed it holiday.
But that famous first Thanksgiving of the
Pilgrims was not given permanent ma
tional status until 240 years afterward,
when, on the Goth of October, 1864, Abra-
ham Lincoln, in grateful acknowledgment
of victories achieved by the Union army,
and the "hopes of an ultimate and
happy deliverance from all our dangers
and Affections" asked all of his fellow
citizens to join him in thanks to God.
Lincoln's proclamation was followed by
proclamations by the governors of the
states, and this custom has page g, Ool -
