demanding revision of the rules, the old guard announced that 1t had all along
 intended revision 1.
 The queer part of 1t all is that it
 seemed not to occur to anybody to make this fact public until organization had
 been blocked for two days, and the pro-
 gressive determination fully showt1.' As an alibi artist the old guard is at least lacking in fnesse.
 Beet sugar interests are among the worst exploiters of child labor. Now it develops that these same interests have
 an air tight monoply in the principal beet raising states. Monopolizing pro fits on the one hand, they fatten their profits out of the labor of children. It's the same old storq. Most mine disasters occur in non-tnion mines, where
 the safety regulations demanded by the
 union are houted by autocratic bosses. Sweatshops exist where employers succeed in preventing union organization. The industrial disgraces of our coun- try are found whete there are no unions, fer resistance to injunction. In union there is more than strength-there is moral and industrial decency
 Important news comes from Moscow this week. The control commission of the communist party has reiterated that 1t will not countenance any internal fac- tions and has expelled twelve abor or ganizers who are said to have develop ed left tendencies"
 eThe communists didn't like the expu1- sion of Dunne at Portland, but their highest authority proceeds now to do ex- actly likewise, carrying out what has
 been its fixed policy all along, though expulsion is gentle treatment when com
 pared to the usual punishment The communist of1garchy in Moscow takes mighty good care that only com rnunists are allowed inside.
 Interesting, in the same connection is the recent declaration of Frossard, the
 former secretary of the United social ist party of France, who led the commu- nists section of that party in the fa- nous division that brought about the es- tablishment of the French section of the red international. Not long after that division Frossard saw the terrible error of his course and turned about to lead those who declined to follow implicitly the orders of Moscow.
 Writing now in "L'Egalite" Frossard thus bitterly reproaches himself for his former pro-communisrn

 The world-renowned moderate" So- cialists leader, Professor Sidney Webb, who until recently was Chairman of the British Labor Party. claims that his party IS democratic and moderate.

new COUNTY GARAGE TO
HOUSE COUNTY ENGINEER
AND JURIES; IS ECONOMY

The new county garage, on Rail
road avenue in the east part OF town,
win be ready for occupancy the first
Of the year. The county supervisors
believe the garage viii not only prove
to be a great convenience but that 1t
will also be profitable in money saved.
The building is 8Ox60 feet, two stor-
les high. The first floor is for coun-
ty cars and equipment, storage and
workroom. On the second floor there
are two offices, one for the county en-
gineer, who will move there from Ma
sonic Temple, and the other for the
custodian of the building, who will
soon be appointed and who will have
charge of the repair work on the cars.
A room 12x20 feet has been PARTON
ed off for a jury room. Cots will be
installed and when juries have to be
locked up over night, as juries often
have to be, that is where they Will
bunk.
Besides the saving in garage ex-
pense and jury lodging and engineer $
rent, it is believed that the new build
ing will be the means of saving
enough small tools each year to pay
interest. Inventories taken the last
of 1922 and recently show that great
many shovels, axes, crow-bars, and
even more than dozen fresnoes have
mysteriously disappeared. What be-
longed to the county, apparently, be-
ionged to anybody who coveted and
had a right hand to grab with. The
loss this year in this respect has run
into a lot of money, and, it is said,
this loss has occurred during former
years in the same way. 1t is propos-
ed now to keep the tools in the ware
house, let them out only on requisi-
tions and make the man taking them
out responsible for their return.
Steam heat is being installed in the
building, the plant being the old one
that formerly did duty in the county
jail.
The building is steel sheathed out

READ THE [. A. TIMES TO
GET NEWS THAT (NEVER)
HAPPENED In FLAGSTAFF

Los Angeles Times story on Sun
day about the heavy snow crushing in
the roof at Taylor hall, one of the
Flagstaff Normal school dormitories,
was fiction of imagination. Who
ever wrote the story must have had a
new symptom of the ailment in which
it used to be the fashion to see snakes
and other horrific creatures. There
had not been six inches of snow in
Flagstaff since last winter, and, being
dry, none that did come stayed on the
Normal roofs, all blowing off as soon
as it fell. Those roofs carried five
feet of snow a few years ago without
danger. Two weeks or more ago, in q
high wind, couple of bricks in the
gable of Taylor hall fell out. Prob
ably that is what the yarn started
from.
The eTimes had another yarn this
week about it being Is degrees below
in Flagstaff. Not far from right, for
The Times, as our coolest was 10
above.

BEESON BELIEVES STATE
TAX COMMISSION WILL
MEET HERE NEXT JULY

Billy Beeson and wife returned Sun
day night from Yuma where Billy at
tended the meeting of the state tax
commission. He says the chances are
good that the July meeting of the
commission will be held in Flagstaff.
He extended a cordial invitation, re-
inforced by the telegram of invitation
sent last week by the Flagstaff cham
Der of commerce. Heretofore it has
been the policy at these meetings. to
select the next meeting place by vote
of all those attending the conference.
BNt this time the state tax commits
sioners will make the selection, feeling
that in the past many attending the
meetings have voted who had no right
to, thus defeating the wishes of the
officials. Mr.. Beeson believes the
new plan Of choosing the convention
city is more practical, because it pre-
vents persons who have no interest in
the meeting beyond the selection of
the next convention place butting in
on the vote.

NO HOLD-OVER; ALL THREE
SUPERVISORS FIGURE In
NEXT FALLS ELECTION

Yes, we have no hold-over super
visors.
Answering the frequent query about
which one Of the three county aaper-
visors holds over for another two
years.
Formerly the three were elected
for two years each and the one receiv-
ing the highest vote held over by vir-
tue of that compliment for an addi-
tional two years. But when the law
was changed by the legislature preced-
ing this one, and the counties divided
into supervisoral districts, the hold
over was eliminated.
The terms of the three supervisors,
Chairman Billy Rittenhouse of Viii
iams and Members Bob Taylor and
John 10y of Flagstaff, all expire the
31st of next December and whether
any of them continue in that office
will have to be decided at the polls
at the next general election, in No
vember, in the event that all three
wish to continue.

HIGHWAY POSITION WITH

Col. w. w. Crosby, who recently
rendered his resignation as superin-
tendent of the Grand Canyon national
park, advises that shortly after ten
dering his resignation he was offered
the position of consulting or advisory
engineer ON the staff of Hon. Paul
d. Wright, state highway commission
er of the state of Pennsylvania, which
he has accepted and will be located at
Harrisburg, Pa, shortly after the
first Of the year.
Col. Crosby assures the many
friends here that he deeply regrets
leaving, but hopes he will not lose
contact with the people and that
they fill large place in. his heart.
He says: "We shall always look for
ward to coming back this way again,
if only temporarily and you may be
assured if we do, we shall want to
stop as long as possible in Flagstaff.
You haven't a Flagstaff booster in
your community that is any more en-
thusiastic about it than myself. Don't
forget, that if | can help at any time,

spoke to young man named Reed

telling him he couldn't play pool
there because he was under age. Smith
butted in, asserting that the Reed boy
was more than 16.
Smith told a representative of The
Sun at the jail Wednesday morning
that Charlie Wade offered to bet him
$50 that the Reed boy was not Is.
Smith says he had only SIS and put
that up. Then the boy was asked
how old he was and said he was Is.
Smith was vague about what he and
Charlie said then, but asserts that
Charlie knocked him down and then
that Harry Wade came to them, sep

TAX DODGERS OF THIS
COUNTY BEING SUED BY
COUNTY TREASURER

Mrs. Anna Frohmiller, county treas
urer, is filing suit against every tax
payer delinquent in payment of 1918
taxes on property that not since been
removed from the county, and will
have all the suits filed before the first
of January, which is the date on
which 1913 taxes will become out
lawed unless suits are filed before
that date.
Nineteen nineteen taxes will not
become outlawed until January l,
1925, so suit will be delayed on some
of them, though it likely will not be
long before they also will be made
cases in suits to recover.
Mrs. Frohmiller has made an en-
viable record in this connection and
through her efforts during the last
year has brought this county to the
point where the percentage of unpaid
taxes is smaller than in any other
county in the state. She sees no
reason why all should not be treated
exactly alike in this matter and does
not propose to let any escape their
Just tax obligations to the commun-
ity, the county and the state. The
more prompt in payment all taxpayers
are, the more evenly the burden Of
taxation is distributed and the lower
the tax rates goes. Tax delinquency
has been a favorite method with many
to save money. 1t is becoming ul-
popular under the regime of this
fearless, conscientious county treas
urer.

At the Santa Fe depot Friday night
scores of merry boy and girl students
and many other happy people, leaving
for the holidays, were boarding the
half-dozen passenger trains that pass
ed through between eight and ten
o'clock.
From one of the sections of No. 7
Hobson alighted, on the far side from
the depot. He kept out Of sight of
the crowd, but made some inquiries
about the speed of the various trains.
Then, a little while later as another
section of No. 7 was pulling out, he
tried to get aboard. The train must
have been going faster than he
thought; or perhaps he was numb
with cold; or he may have stumbled
and found himself unable to regain
his footing. But he caught hold some

Smith was hurried to Flagstaff
county Jail, being spirited out OF
town by Deputy Sheriff C. Y. Camp
bell Of Williams, who feared that pub
lie sentiment against Smith, then fast
rising, might result in an attempt at
summary justice. Smith had been
terribly nauled by those who witness
ed the shooting and it took a long
time for DR.. Felix Manning to dress
the numerous wounds on his head and
face.
Wade was shot in the left knee and
body. The bullets were steel-jacket-
ed, lessening the danger of complica-
tions. 1t was several times reported
here next day that Wade was dead,
but DR.. C. D. Jeffries of Williams
Wednesday afternoon told The Sun
that Wade was then resting easily,

MANAGER F. |. co. TO GO
INTO Los ANGELES REALTY

Joe C. Dolan, general manager OF
the Flagstaff Lumber Co., has resign
ed and soon after the first of the
year will move to Los Angeles, where
he will enter the real estate business
with his brother, F. A. Dolan. .
Mr.. Dolan retains his interests In
the company. Just whom his successor
will be will be decided at meeting
of the stockholders, which is schednl-
ed for January 3. E. H. Wheat is
secretary-treasurer of the company,
but whether he will assume the man
agement, or whether he will accept It
will not be known until that date.
Mr.. Dolan for several years before
coming to Flagstaff was a successful
real estate operator in Los Angeles
and has heavy realty holdings there,
which he has greatly added to in the
last few months. His decision to
move there permanently will be heard
with deep regret by the many friends
he and his family have here.
The contemplated change was not
learned until last evening, too late to
give any further particulars this week.

GOVERNOR COMPLIMENTED
OUR COUNTY OFFICIALS ON
CONDUCT OF OFFICES

Each of the county officials whose
offices are inspected by the state ex-
aminer last week received copies Of
State Examiner f. L. Edinborough's
official report from Governor George
w. P Hunt, who wrote to each COM
plimentary letter upon the efficient
manner in which their offices were
conducted.
Those officials whose books were
gone over a couple of months ago by
Mr.. Edinborough and his assistants
were the. supervisors, assessor, treas
urer, clerk of court, justices of the
peace, recorder, school superintendent
and sheriff.
The reports were uniformly good
and the various officials were mem
toned as being courteous to the pub
lie and keeping their books neatly
posted to date.
Sheriff Campbell's report contained
the following summary of receipts
that will be of local interest: From
August /, 1922, to September 1, 1923,
fees collected amounted to S563.36; IL
cense receipts, $570; refunds, So
744.55; board of U. S. prisoners,
$248.25; miscellaneous, $31052; the
total being S5,436.68.

CONGRESSMAN HAYDEN
INTRODUCES BILL FOR
LITTLE COLORADO BRIDGE

In letter to Joe Rickel, clerk of
the board Of supervisors of Coconino
county, Congressman Hayden advises,
under date of December 10th:
"For the information of the board
of supervisors, / enclose herewith a
copy of bill that / have introduced
authorizing the construction of a
bridge across the Colorado river about
six miles below Lees Ferry. / pre-
pared this measure after conferring
with the commissioner of Indian af-
fairs who furnished me with the re-
port of Col. Herbert Deakyne, where
in it is estimated the total cost of
this bridge will be about 100000.
You will note that the bill provides
that one-half of the cost of the bridge
shall be borne by the United States
on behalf of the Navajo Indians and
the remainder by the state OF. Arizona.
1t seems to me that this is just ar
rangement because the burden of i'm
proving and maintaining the road
from Flagstaff to the bridge and be-
yond viii largely fall on Coconino
county. In his report Col. Deakyne
SAYS: The roads over which the ma
terial must be hauled are in large part
mere tracks through the desert, cross
ing many depressions with steep
pitches at the side, undergoing some
1000 feet of change in elevation,
blocked at times in winter by snow,
and having scanty and infrequent
sources of water in the summer. The
road that can be hauled by truck or
team will be seriously limited by these
conditions
