1879 ARE KILLED

TN six years 1879 persons were
i killed and 3O,522 injured at rail
road crossings in the United States
Eighty per cent of the accidents al
such places involved occupants OF
automobiles.
In this country there are over 1885,
362 railroad highway crossings. To
eliminate all of these now is not only
a financial, but physical impossi-
bility. A conservative estimate of the
cost is $19,OOO,OOO,OOO. Examinations
are being made, and will continue as
rapidly as circumstances will permit,
but the net results cannot be changed
materially as there will be additional
crossings as new lines are built.

OWENS SAYS COUNTY
HAD PAID FOR BRIDGE

In last weeks issue of The Wins
low Mail, news story carried the
information that Judge Jacobs had
given judgment against Navajo coun-
ty in the sum of 013,872.25 in favor
of the builders of the bridge between
Holbrook and this city. The item also
said that the suit was for collection
of the contract price of the bridge it
self. The Mail seems to have been in
error, as the following letter from
E. G. Owens, chairman of the board
of supervisors, explains:
"In your issue of July II, l notice
the article you have about Navajo
county having to pay for the bridge
across the Colorado river. Your state
ment is misleading and not correct.
"Mesmer & Rice were awarded the
contract to build a bridge across the
river east of Winslow in 1916, for the
their part of the bridge in the latter
part of 1917 Mesmer himself signed
a receipt acknowledging receipt of
payment in full on the contract price.
They presented a bill for $4,000 for
extras which the inspectors we had
on the job for the county told the
board that they did not put on or in
the bridge. Accordingly the board
turned their demand for extras down.
'Mesmer & Rice were paid the full
$23,800 and a small amount recon-
mended by the inspector for extras
which they did put on the bridge.
Owing to the delay in starting and
completing the bridge by Mesmer &
Rice, the bank on the west side was
washed out so far that the bridge
built by Mesmer & Rice ended in the
middle of the river, so that one would
have had to use 20-foot ladder to
get on or off the bridge.
Therefore, to make it possible for
Winslow to get the benefit of the
other span and also build up and pro-
tect the bank on the west side of the
river, which cost the county almost
as much more as the Mesmer e Rice
contract
"Mesmer & Rice did not commence
their work until the rainy season set
in. They had their equipment in and
around the river so that they were
liable to lose good part of it in the
floods. We warned them of the fact,
which they paid no heed to, and ac-
cordingly lost by it.
II was member of the board at the
time and felt justified in turning their
demand down, and still think that
their demand for extras was a graft
and that it is not just for Navajo
county to pay the bill.
will you please correct the state
ment that they only received part pay
and sued for the balance?
please tell your readers that Mes
mer & Rice received the full $23,S00
and sued for the $4,000 for extras
which the board turned down"

pie, Mrs. r. D. McGregor and Mrs.
Mary Hungerford. Up to the first of
the week 1649 persons had registered
in the county, and in the city 819. The
registration in town should total at
least 1900 this year, and if everyone

BELTS WITHDRAWS

BECAUSE of important matters
~ soon to come before the corpora
ton commission, of which he is chair
man, things which will require much
study and time spent in preparation
of their consideration, Amos A. Belts
feels that he can not afford to jeod-
ardize the interests of the state by
taking time from his duties during
this summer and fall, to make an act
i've campaign for the democratic nom
ination for governor
In a statement published July 8, he
says:
'It is with keen regret that I feel
compelled to announce that I shall
not be candidate for the democratic
nomination for governor at the COM
ing primary.
'In reaching this decision I am not
unmindful of the faithful and untiring
efforts of my many friends to pro-
mote my interests. The disappoint-
ment which I experience is almost
wholly on their account. I am hope
full and confident that they will accept
my judgment as the expression of my
sincere belief that it is the best policy
to pursue at this time.
II am profoundly grateful to those
who have so generously and energet-
ically supported by prospective can
didacy during the past few weeks. It
is with deep sense of humility that
I acknowledge my appreciation of the
many expressions of confidence and
appreciation which have been convey
ed to me, both by word of mouth and
in written communications. and the
recollection thereof will remain with
me as sweet memory so long as life
shall last, and will furnish the incen-
tive for reconsecration of my ener-
gies to the work Of the commission in
which the people are so directly and
vitality interested.
"The proposed merger of the South
ern Pacific and the Southwestern in
volving, as it does, a main line for
the Salt River valley, will require
close attention for the next few weeks
as will also, a lumber rate case
scheduled to commence in Los An
geles on August 18th. in which the
entire lumber rate fabric within
Arizona is being attacked by the coast
lumber interests in an effort to Sc
cure an advantage over the mills of
this state To these cases of over
shadowing Importance I shall devote
my best efforts"

GALLUP AND THE INDIANS

GALLUP, New Mexico. attracts
~ many tourists and holds them
for indefinite periods, by entertaining
its visitors with Indian celebrations,
ceremonials and dances. Not only do
the Indians, encouraged by the In
dams, put on their pageants in the
city, but at times make trips outside
the estate. A few weeks ago large
Prescott to take part in the big cele-
bration there. Both going to and
coming from Prescott the Indians
staged ceremonial dances at inter-
mediate points. One of the results Of
this visit is that an excursion of
Prescott people is being made up to
attend the Inter-Tribal ceremonial
which is to be held in Gallup Sep
tember 10, IL and II.
The ceremonial is claimed to be the
only primitive all-Indian celebration
in the world where thousands of
tribesmen participate. 1t had it's in
ception in 1922 and has the co-opera-
tion of the Indian department.
Three days and nights are devoted
to the ceremonial, the afternoon pro-
grams consisting of competitive In
dian games and sports, while the eve
nings are devoted to the weird cere-
monial dancing of the various tribes,
among them the Navajo fire dance,
the Hopi butterfly dance, the Zuni
war dance, the Chociti buffalo dance
and many others.
Visitors from the east and middle
west get more thrill while in the
southwest from their contact with the
Indians than from any other incident
or item of their visit.
Thousands of Indians live within
easy distance of Winslow, living the
life, and practicing the habits and
arts of their forefathers, and it would
seem no great task to establish more
friendly relations with them, cooper
ate with them, and through them
make of Winslow a more interesting
point for tourists to visit.

SEEING ARIZONA FIRST

A GREATER percentage of Arizona
4 y people are spending their vaca-
tions in the state this year than ever
before, according to reports received
from a number of different localities.
Full houses are reported the
regular rule by most commercial re-
sorts, and practically all declare this
season is one of the best they have
enjoyed Typical of these reports is
one from Douglas stating that Cochise
county resorts have noted Is per
year.
At the same time increased numbers
of campers are reported in practically
all summering sections, and the White
mountain country appears to be more
popular than ever. Northern cities
have large numbers of summer visi-
tors.
The principal cause of the large:
proportion of Arizonans who are va
cationing in their own state is be-
lieved to be the "See Arizona First
movement, which is being backed by
organizations, motor car dealers and
others throughout the state, and
which naturally is bringing greater
results each succeeding year A con-
tributing cause is the foot and mouth
disease still lingering in California,
as many people have been reluctant
to drive to the coast because of the
possibility of continued embargo.
Reports of the larger number of
people vacationing in Arizona are
borne out by advices received by the
Arizona Industrial Congress, which
reports considerable demand for the

vide all agencies a handy prelimin-

and are making every effort to see
that all employees concerned give spec

ance of their duties in that connec-

be reduced to minimum, similar

HARMONY
my best effo

TT ARMONY prevails among the
IL leaders of the national demo-
cratic party, after the travail of the
convention in New York, and unified
effort to elect the national ticket and
put in force the splendid platform
adopted by the convention, was made
more secure by the statement of VIM
G. McAdoo to support in every way
the candidacy of John w Davis. Mr.
McAdoo's pre-convention organization
will bend every effort on behalf of
Davis and Bryan. Mr.. McAdoo, be-
fore his departure for Europe ON a
vacation and rest trip, was as fol-
lows:
'I am satisfied that Davis is in full
accord with the progressive program
outlined in the democratic platform,
and I am confident that as president
he faithfully would execute the man
date of the party"
Referring to criticisms from some
quarters against Davis because of his
connections with certain interests as
a lawyer McAdoo said: Davis is a
man of high character and integrity,
and his services in the past should
satisfy every apprehension of this
sort. If I did not believe this,
could not render aid to him, because
I always have believed that the in
terests of the people never should be
subordinated to merely slavish par
tisanship.
"The influence and power of the
progressive forces must not be dis
sipated by division between the var
ious political movements; rather,
they must be consolidated and used
like an irresistible battering ram of
that political party which offers the
best instrumentality for service to
the people"
