BIG RIVER PACT
UP YESTERDAY

The first move toward a campaign
of direct action on the question of
ratification of the Colorado river
compact by the Arizona legislature,
was made Monday afternoon when
the house of representatives ordered
the resolution calling for ratification
brought out Of committee and made
the regular order of business at
Thursday mornings session of the
house.
The motion to take the compact out
Of the hands Of the committee on
agriculture and irrigation and bring
it before the house was made by Rep
resentative Wisener of Yuma, sponsor
of the resolution for ratification,
which was referred to the committee
when it was introduced during the
early days of the session.
Mr.. Wisener's motion was passed
by vive voce vote. The vote was not
unanimous.
After Mr.. Wisener,s resolution had
been carried the house adjourned and
turned over the chamber to the agrl-
culture and irrigation committee for
an additional hearing on the compact.
A group of engineers had asked that
they be allowed to speak against ratl-
fication.
Henry B. Rowland spoke for an
hour, confirming his statements on
the power aspects of the compact. He
was followed by ]. G. Dobbins who
objected to the inclusion of waters
Of the Gila and Salt rivers in the al
location of the waters to the lower
states under the compact. Another
development in connection with the
question of ratification was the re-
ceibt by Senator Kean st. Charles and
Representative E. Ross Householder,
supporters of ratification, of a letter
from Governor Scrugham Of Nevada,
who signed the resolution of ratifica-
ton passed by the Nevada legisla-
ture.
Governor Scrugham declared that
he had made "a comprehensive study
of the situation from all angles" and
believed approval Of the pact
to be the only solution of the prob

ARIZONA POTATOES NOW
MAINLY USED In STATE
Especial to The Sun.l

PHOENIX, Feb. 8. - A greater
proportion Of Arizona potatoes is be-
ing used in Arizona this winter than
ever before, officials Of the Arizona
Industrial Congress declared today IN
making public figures on shipments
of Flagstaff potatoes, compiled by the
Coconino Farm Bureau Marketing as
sociation.
These figures show that 183 car
loads Of Coconino county potatoes had
been shipped to Arizona points from
Flagstaff and Williams up to Janu-
airy 25th, and only three carloads to
points outside the state. What sue
cessful handling of the crop has meant
to the grower may be imagined when
one remembers that thousands of
acres of potatoes were allowed to rot
in other states, simply because the
crop was bigger than the m-rker
could absorb.
The bulk of the Coconino crop
came to Phoenix, mainly because this
was the nearest large market, under
an agreement between the Farm Bu
reau association, Babbitt Brothers,
and wholesale dealers of the Salt
River valley by which the wholesalers
agreed to handle the Arizona pota-
toes exclusively so long as the sup
ply was adequate in quantity and
satisfactory in quality. One. of the
results of this agreement has been
that to date not ten ears Of outside
potatoes have come into Phoenix,
when normally many times that num-
ber are shipped in
Of the total shipments Of 186 cars
made so far, the report shows los
were handled by the marketing asso-
citation, 56 by Babbitt Brothers, and
25 by independent growers. A few
carloads were peddled direct to con-
sumers,. generally by the indepen-
dents.
Total shipments made to this city
were 107 cars, of which GA were sent
down for storage. OF this latter num-
Der, however, more than 35 have been
sold, several carloads going to other
localities.
Tucson ranked first among the cit
les to which shipments were made
without any previous agreement with
wholesalers, taking 21 cars. Pres
cott took eleven. Eight went to Mesa,
six to Kingman, and three to Bisbee.
Glendale also took three, and ship
ments Of one or two carloads were
made to Winslow, Hayden, Florence,
ClarlaIale, Mayer, Ajo, Yuma, Hol-
brook, Ray, Jerome, Wickenburg and
Congress Junction.

HOW A NEWSPAPER MAN
USUALLY GETS WEALTHY

The average newspaper man has a
hundred ideas for making a fortune,
but few scribes ever "eash in" on their
lunches. One exception to that rule
is J. w. STROBE, Of the Miami Silver
Belt staff. "Bill" Strobe has for
years punhced out articles on his
typewriter denouncing the "absentee
capitalist" Now he bids fair to be-
come one of them, for oil has been
found in large quantities in two lots
in the Signal Hill district, near Los
Angeles, and these lots are owned
by "Bill" Strobe and his sister, Muir
ie1 STROBE Lieberman. The well came
in with a flow estimated at between
1000 and 5000 barrels a day, accord
ing to a telegram received by Strobe
from his sister.

THE CAREFREE
COWBOY
(By G. M. Allison.)
T. *+%$**+**@*s%+*s + :

Along a winding trail and dark,
Upon a night cold and wet,
Rides solitary cowboy smoking q
cigarette;
Needless Of the varied voices of the
night;
The fox's sharp and snarling bark,
The whir of beetles droning flight,
The eerie cry of lone coyote,
The whippoorwill's plaintiv note,
The prowEng lions awful scream,
The bobcats dismal caterwauI,
The sullen roar of distant waterfall,
The cry Of lonely owl to lonelier mate;
(The night is dark, the hour1s grow
ing late)
The rustling leaves stirred by fit
full breeze,
Nor sees the lurking shadows meath
somber trees,
Cast by the waning line of crescent
moon,
Anon is heard monotone of whistled
tune,
AS down the rocky trail of lonesome
glen
Far from the accustomed haunts of
Rides now the lone cowboy cold and
wet,
Still calmly smoking a cigarette.
Now urging on his tired steed
With jingling spurs to further speed,
To reach his camp on cac1 covered
plain,
Dotted here and there with catclaw
and mesquite,
Ere day has ushered in again
He calmly smokes another cigarette.
Unloosens from tired mount the sad
die girth,
Takes saddle for a pillow and cool
brown earth
For his "soft and downy" bed,
The home of stars for covering over
head;
Unmindful of his blanket frosted Ger
with sweat
Calmly smokes another cigarette.
Awakening at the breaking Of coming
dawn,
With many stretch and drowsy
yawn,
Before he rolls from his "downy" bed
He reaches just beneath his frowsy
head,
And fondly grasps the little drawn
string puckered sack,
Adorned with bovine figure on front
and back,
But to his alarm and sore regret
Finds not the "makings" of another
cigarette.
It's empty of the soothing, golden
dust,
Now rudely filings it aside in much
disgust,
And DER the rocky hills and dusty
plain
He urges on his tagging steed again.
"Ill fares the mount to Fastening
spurs q prey"
When cravings for smoke will not
accept delay.
Approaching from afar he spies his
comrade "Bill,"
Gets from this savior the "makings"
of another pill"
Makes from little square of paper
brown
That may be had in any western town,
And pinch or two of fragrant "bull, =
Deity rolled so round and full
BY simple twist Of supple fingers and
of wrist,
Now vets the tips on eager waiting
lips,
Digs up a match, and with rasping
scratch
On heel of boot, or else his tight,
Calmly lights another "cigaroot" with
satisfying sigh.
When Gabriel sounds his last alarm
ing toot.
To call the final roundup on the
range,
And all the strays are gathered in,
We aver, nor think it passing strange,
Before st. Peter at the Golden Gate,
While standing there to learn his fate,
Whether to take the trail to left or
right,
He'll ask the stray just next behind,
Have you the 'makings,' would you
be so kind
Then ask the Devil for light
And calmly smoke his last "cigaroot."
