that within six months the quarantine
may be lifted.
The state of California becoming
alarmed about the rumors of scab in
apache county, originally placed a
quarantine against the whole county.
Later, however, finding out that the
disease was confined to a very small
area and that active steps were being
taken to eradicate it, the quarantine
order was modified to cover only the
small area also covered by the Ari-
zoiaa quarantine. Any cattle from
Apache county, outside of the small
quarantine area may be shipped to
California or anywhere else if accom-
panied by the proper health certifi-
cate. In fact, there is no reason why
there should be any danger of the
cattle from the quarantine areas
spreading the disease after they have
been twice dipped and it is perfectly
safe to ship them.

STATE FAIR PLANS
In PREPARATION

Preparations for the industrial ex-
hibit at the state fair next November
got definitely under way with the
drawing Of ground plans for the ex-
hibit buildings as the first step in the
allotment OF space to exhibitors. Man
ufacturing and distributing concerns
Of the state which wish to have dis
plays will be furnished copies Of the
plans SO that they may indicate pref
erence for booths.
Definite plans for the exhibit build
ing also have been completed. The
main structure will be the brick edi-
flee Just inside the main entrance to
the fair ground, known formerly as
the educational building. 1t is 100
by 40 feet In size. A temporary addi-
tion of framework and canvas, well
rooted, will be constructed along the
north side and east end of the main
structure, increasing the dimensions
to 60x138 feet From the industrial
exhibit visitors may pass directly to
the dairy exhibit, in the dairy building
just to the rear.
Most of the booths for the exhibit
will have a frontage of nine feet
others being of larger size. The num-
ber Of booths has not yet been final
ly announced, but it is known there
will be no more than enough to meet
the demand for space.
The Arizona Industrial Congress
which Is to direct the industrial ex-
hibit at the request Of the state fair
commission is emphasizing the need
Of arranging for space Immediately
in letters to business firms Of the
state which expect to make exhibits.

THREE CATTLEMEN
SHOOT EACH OTHER UP

AS result of shooting affray
which occurred near Eagle Greek in
Greenlee county, in the vicinity of the
Spur Cross ranch on Friday morning,
September 7th, two Of the principals
in the affray, Johnny Thompson and
Virgil Leonard, are confined in the
county hospital in Clifton, suffering
from gun shot wounds. Ben Black, a
cowboy in the employ of Arthur
Slaughter, was also slightly wound
ed. Arthur Slaughter, former sheriff
of Greenlee county, another partic:-
pant, was not. wounded.
The encounter between the four
cowmen resolved itself into a gun
duel between Black and Slaughter on
one side and Thompson and Leonard
on the other.
Thompson, the first man wounded
in the fight, was hit by a rifle bullet,
just above the shoulder blade on the
right side, the ball entering from be-
hind as Thompson was running afoot
from the scene Of the encounter. The
muscles Of his shoulder were torn.
Thompson's wound is flesh wound
and is not considered serious.
Virgil Leonard was struck by bull
let from a six shooter, believed to
have been fired by Arthur Slaughter,
while mounted. The bullet struck the
left shoulder blade and splintered.
Fragments of the bullet have been re
moved by the surgeons since Leonard
was taken to the hospital late Friday
night. His wound is considered SER
ious but not necessarily fatal in the
absence of blood poisoning.
Ben Black was creased by a rifle
bullet across the waist line alleged to
have been fired by Virgil Leonard.
The immediate cause Of the shooting
was an alteration which arose be-
tween Ben Black and Johnny Thomp-
son relative to an alleged statement
made by Thompson to Slaughter,
some time previous regarding the
transfer by Black to Thompson Of one
or more yearlings. Stafford Guard

PLAN FOR GREAT CANAL
TO CALIFORNIA A JOKE

1t appears that southern California
also has its scheme for a nighttime
canal from the Colorado. river. The
idea, following the one advanced in
Arizona, is from the Same source, Of
fered by George H. Maxwell.
1t calls for construction of a dam
at Glen Canyon, near Lees Ferry, on
the northeastern Arizona border line,
when, on the Arizona side would lead
a canal with capacity for $4,000 sec
ond feet. This would be about $780,,
900 miners inches, or about 20 times
the maximum flow of the Arizona
canal, which is the largest artificial
waterway in this state.
At TopoclS, below Needles, half this
flow would be carried into California
by means of a 12-mile tunnel, under
a head Of 1900 feet. Then through
San Gorgonia pass and by other OUT
lets it is proposed to water the up.
per sections of the Imperial valley,
one of. the other items being a 13-
mile tunnel that would reach a point
near Hemet, above Riverside, with
some reference also to furnishing wa
ter for the city of San Diego.
The Los Angeles chamber of COM
merce, appreciative of the wonderful
development the project might bring
to its orIy-advertised locality, put
d committee at work. The committee
included three distinguished engineers,
all we'll known in Arizona, d. w. Muir
ply, j. B. Iippincott and W. K. Bar
nard. It's report, unanimously adopt
ed by the chamber of commerce di-
rectors, called the Maxwell scheme
"an alleged plan, visionary, wholly
without merit, impracticable and un-
feasible, tending to discourage legi-
innate development, harmful and
against the best interests Of the coun-
try"
The three engineers further went
on record: "We are unable to deter
mine whether the so-called plan is a
dream of such baseless fabric that
mountains, rivers and other physical
distractions fade away before the eyes
of the dreamer, or whether it is a
deliberate attempt to divert the pub
lie mind from practical and legitimate
development Of irrigation and power
possibilities of the Colorado" The
engineers roughly estimate that the
canal alone, from Pearce's Ferry to
San Gorgonio pass, would cost about
$3.50, 100000, or twice the cost of the
Panama canal. There is special con-
sideration Of the 125 miles in Arizona,
along steep hillsides and ragged
slopes, with deep lateral canyons and
washes, with the declaration: at is
| indeed questionable whether a canal
along the proposed route can be made
safe for continuous operation, even at
cost far in excess of that mention
ed" 1t il; stated that a charge of
even $500 an acre on the land pro-
posed to be covered from the Hemet
canal would yield less than q third Of
the cost of the main canal.
From the reception given the re-
port it would appear that Los An
geles has no immediate desire to take
to herself the flow of the Colorado
and that Arizona would not be mo-
Tested should she bond herself for the
needed $75O,000,000 for canal con-
struction, together with few hun
Edred million more for dam construc-
tion, for machinery for electric gen.

GLEN CANYON DAM WOULD
MAKE WONDERFUL RESORT

Should giant dam be built at Glen
Canyon it would create the greatest
artificial body Of water the world has
ever known. There would be boating
and fishing without end upon the
great reservoir, and the fine scenery
and cool climate would make it the
mecca of summer tourists from al
parts OF the continent. No place in
America could equal it as resort ane
Switzerland could not surpass it. Ano
the dam will be built some day. =

Stated that no part of the A4ache
national forest was within or near the
quarantine area and that there was
no disease on the forest. There is no
reason" said Mr.. Kerr, "why buyers
should hesitate to take cattle from
the ranges on the Apache forest since
there is no disease there. In fact,
the recent rains have put this range
in good condition and buyers should
soon find fat cattle in this part Of the

Austrian Inventors Perfect Instru- ment That Records Passage of
 Boat Over Given Body of Water

Vienna, June 26.-Austrian invent ors have perfected an instrument which matically and accurately records the passage of any vessel over given body of water, night or day, to observers who may be located on shore. As an aid in catching snug glers, and help to coast defense in war time, the invention is regarded as distinctly valuable.
 The device consists of d. small search light sending a ray no bigger than a pencil across the space to be controlled, and a receiving apparatus at the other end containing a light sensitive selenium cell. Whenever a passing vessel interrupts the rays of the search light, the selenium cell closes a relay which starts a bell alarm, or operates recording device.
 The instrument in question was tested recently between two points three and one-half miles apart, in the outskirts of Vienna, and the passage of every object, as well as every per son. was duly recorded. These tests were made In broad daylight, with a 50 candle power incandescent lamp as the source of light.
