For the past two years, the list

sons claiming widows exemption has
contained the name of Ada p. Howie.
In claiming such an exemption, the
law requires the claimant must make
and file an affidavit with the Asses
sor. Her name having appeared In
the list claiming exemption, there
fore, the minutes of this board have
been written for the past two years
stating that she made such AFFIDAVIT.
Mrs. Howie appeared at this time
stating that she has never made such
affidavit and by publishing the state
ment that she had done so, placed
her in a false and unpleasant posi-
ton before the public, and requested
that the Board make correction in
their minutes of this meeting.
The Board therefore are glad to
correct this error and authorize this
minute entry that the above state
ment was in error and not in keep
ing with the facts.
The following described real es-

they were assessed with mining prop
erty and quartz mill, which quartz
mill had been carried off and other
wise destroyed until the same was
no longer of value and requested

The request coming in at this late

Highway Delay Only Temp.
Ofary.

Last Saturday morning this
Office sent a telegram to the State
Engineer asking cause Of the
shut down of roadwork on the
Wickenburg Hot Springs section
of the Arizona Central Highway.
Sunday morning, too late for last
weeks issue, we received the
following:
US NJ 19 MI Phoenix, Ariz., Jan. 6
Wickenburg Miner
Temporary delay caused by federal
aid requirements and reorganization of
forces. Project will be completed as
soon as possible.
State Engineer
Three rock crews, a team out
fit, and bridge crew have been
working on this roadway for
some weeks. which on Saturday
last was reported to have stopped; +;
hence the anxiety which prompted
the telegram. The construction
of this 10 1-2 miles of highway
is a substitute for the old 19-mile
Yavapai detour between Wicken-
burg and Hot Springs. Recently
notices were posted that the road
was open to the Garden of Allah.
Two carloads of powder have
been used and another is now at
Allah to complete the work which
is expected to be at an early day.

Rural Dream in Fashion.

The girl stood on the wagon deck,
Her feet were growing bunions;
She wore no lace around her neck
And her breath it smelled of onions.
She was picture of the farm,
The tan had kissed her freckles,
Her eyes were crossed, there was nc
charm,
Her hand was hard as knuckles.
She stood in silence for while,
My gaze, itewas then thwarted.
Her apron strings were tied in knots
And her nose was somewhat warted
She was no flapper of this day,
Her hair it hung in braidlets;
She was used to pitching hay.
And tan, she wore for bracelets.
If this dear girl should fall in love,
And seek to change her fashion;
She'd be sticker, l am sure,
And not the one to mash on.

"No Law for the Poor. ?"

Mrs. Sanchez, who occupies the
old Contreras property on a lease,
which carries water privileges
Herewith, tried to get a warrant
out for Marshal Devanney this
week for brutal conduct, jostling
her aside, and entering the pri-
vacy of her home in rude man.
ner. Devanney is water super
intendent and being unable to
collect the water rent from the
owner or agent of the property,
turned off the water at the valve
outside. When demonstrated
thereat, he told her she could
move somewheres else and went
into the house to see if the hy-
drants were closed. Mrs. San
chez says in order to punish De-
vanney for his unbecoming rude
ness, she would be put to the
expense of a trip to the Phoenix
court, and this was the handicap
she had to obviate because of its
cost, otherwise she would have
sworn out a complaint.

Chorus: ''It's the Same Thing
Over Again" :"

Another bold robbery occurred
Wednesday night whereby the
local drug store was burglarized
to extent of several hundred dol
lars in silver-ware, cutlery, ko-
daks, and high-class goods lately
imported. The thieves cut neat
round hole thru the plate-gla
of the front door. reached inside
and pushed back the night latch
and bolt. Sheriff Sullivan re-
sponded quickly and finger-print
experts and detectives soon had
several persons in the local jail.
But they were liberated in a few
moments after dark by confed-
crates, who climbed thru the
transom and broke the locks to
the cells. Strange how robbers
and prisoners all get away, and
nobody is ever punished for the
many bold burgluries and hold
ups occurring in Wickenburg?

State Miner Has an Audience.

Some folks may think our edi-
tor visionary, but with intelligent
people the advancement of re-
forms and information relative
to schools, churches, and public
amusements, tends to build up
the moral standards of the COM
munity. He does not expect to
put over everything he advocates
but some of his messages will
get across eventually and this
will be a bigger and better town
forit. In the struggle for higher
ideals of laws and government
there is a constant and Legitimate
warfare for community benefit
which defes ridicule.

GERMANTOWN RULE \
John Miller New Town Magi-
Strate.

For years certain favored per-
sons like John Miller have been
allowed to do business in the
municipality without paying the
town a license. In others, the
''city dads" have acted like Shy
locks and denied a man his con-
stitutional right to take off his
coat to make himself and family
a living anywhere without pay
ing license tax. For heavens
sake! isn't the town dead enough
now without invoking the old
obsolete "blue laws" of New
England to kill it entirely?
Progress of the town for years
has been hampered because the
town marshal, also constable for
the county, has been at logger
heads with the Wickenburg JUS
tice of the Peace. Cases that
could and ought to have been
handled locally have cost the
county great expense to bring
witnesses, prisoners. and evil
dence to Phoenix. The city gives
John Miller so per cent of the
fines collected and John expects
to doa land office business with
out paying any license.

SMITHS TRIAL.
Parker Banker Due for About
As Years.

The trial Of Alva E. Smith.
looter of the Parker bank, lasted
a week, but the willy banker got
Z to 10 years in the pen just the
same. The Republican said he
had oceans of nerve and $84
when he bought the controlling
interest of the bank.
He actually bought it with the
banks own money. The price
was $10,O 900. He made two checks
one for $4,000 on the Clarita
bank. and another for $4, 900 on
an Oklahoma bank; then in name
of Parker Valley Bank, he wired
those two banks to honor checks
of A. E. Smith. At that time
the deposits of the Parker bank
amounted to $53, 900. It's cash
assets were $35, 900 and capital
stock $15, 900.
What became of all the money
of the gutted bank is not known.
1t is seen where $4,000 of it
went. When Smith fed he took
with him $4,000 in travellers
cheques. A large but indefinite
sum went to Omaha lawyers, his
attorneys in a federal case pend
ing against him.
At rate of his first sentence,
on other charges pending, he is
due for about As years servitude
where he will probably die a
pauper.

Ode to Gov. Hunt.

Arizona's executive takes his oath
today;
There will not be any grand display.
Simple his life has always been
Always devoted to his fellow men.
Kindness has been his one aim in life,
Not only to his child and wife,
But to all, regardless of station in life,
This morning once again he comes
His higher ideals to repeat,
When triumph's begun over victories
won,
And our Governor takes his seat.
