Golfer SAYS PACT FRAME-UP

Tucson, Feb. 16.-Charging
that the Colorado river compact
was IAN attempted frame up on
the state of Arizona" engineer.
ed mainly by Albert B. Fall,
Arthur p. Davis, and Herbert
Hoover, for what he declared to
be selfish reasons, State Senator
Fred II. Golfer, of Apache coun.
ty, denounced the compact be-
fore a large audience at the On,
iversity auditorium last night
and enlarged on what is known
as the high line canal plan, as a
solution to the controversy.
The $500, 100000 cost of the
high line canal could be paid for
by popular subscription, Golfer
declared, and in conclusion he
said it would be the means of
bringing great amounts of cap
ital to the state and large nun
bers of people, and in addition
would result in a reduced tax
rate that in itself would pay for
the cost Of construction of the
project.

Voters Urged to Keep
Com. Matson on Job

Mr.. Matson is a highly trained
business executive. The enviable rec
ord he made as Commissioner OF Pub
lie Safety and Commissioner of
Finance for the City of Saint Paul led
to his appointment as Railroad and
Warehouse Commissioner last year.
His work since that time has merited
the appointment.
The exacting nature of his position
calls for calm, judicious and expert
enced Judgment. A Railroad and
Warehouse Commissioner becomes
more valuable to the state with each
years experience through practical
contact with the highly technical
problems of the department.
Mr.. Matson has already demon
strated his ability to intelligently
serve the State of Minnesota in a
most important line of duty.

ZIEGLER FIRM a
IN LANCASTER
FOR IS YEARS
Anniversary of Foundation
a 1925 Commercial Event.
Tribute to Square Deal.

A local event of commercial impor-
lance is the 18th anniversary of the
foundation of the Ziegler hardware
store to be celebrated in 1925. NJ. M.
Ziegler, founder of the store, came to
Lancaster from Pennsylvania in 1851.
He lost no time in getting into bust
ness and worked hard and frugally.
Old Mr.. Zieglers two sons, Charles
and William, entered the store while
boys and grew up i'll the business.
William died six years ago, his share
in the business being taken later by
Old Mr.. Ziegler's two sons, Charles
The firm has since been known as G..
B. Ziegler e Son. @. B. Ziegler, senior
partner, relates that he has been in
the store almost without a break for
over half a century. His longest va
cation has been two weeks. Charles
is now in the sixties but as active
and vigorous as he was twenty years
ago. He is the oldest business man Tin
point of service) in Lancaster, Louis
Weber being second. The Ziegler firm
has always handled a high-class line
of merchandise with rigid ideals as
to honest value and square dealing.
The Herald, another old Grant county
institution, (the oldest in fact) ex-
tends congratulations to the Ziegler
store for it's long life and thrifty con-

CONSOLIDATION
SCHOOL CASE
UP JANUARY IL
Supreme Court to Hear
Final Arguments on Var
iOus Moot Points.

The consolidation school cases, now
before the Supreme court of the state,
have been postponed for final hearing
to Monday, Jan. IL. At the recent
hearing Olin e Butler of Madison, the
lawyers for anti-consolidation, asked
time to. cite law on several moot
points, and were granted Is days
stay. Following that A. w. ~Kopp,
counsel for the consolidators, has five
days to prepare an answer. The court
will then hear the case and probably
dispose of it. In the meantime tax
rolls in the districts affected may not
be released as q decision one way or
the other would have a vital effect on
assessments. The towns of Little
Grant, Beetown, Bloomington, and the
village of Bloomington are involved in
one instance and the towns of Fenni-
more and Mt. Ida and the city of
Fennimore are involved in the other.
The. controversy has gone on for sew
eral years with no settlement to date
and the tying UP of the tax rolls is
causing confusion and inconvenience.

Biblical Injunction to Care
For FOrsaken Carried Out
By Lancaster Couple.

Rev. D. A. Richardson, Supt. Madi-
son district of the Children's Home
Society CT Wisconsin, was in Lancas-
ter Monday, bringing as Christmas
present a little boy of nine months
TO the Allen Aupperle home in So.
Lancaster. The little lad will be a
brother to a cute little girl Mr.. and
Mrs. Aupperle obtained from the same
source three years ago. She is now
a robust and winsome little Miss and
the children can be congratulated in
having secured an excellent home and
foster parents. Rev. Richardson has
been busy up and down the state
playing Santa Claus to various homes.
By Christmas ne will have delivered
six little ones to various selected
homes. The old gentleman hiked out
on the noon train expecting to deliver
two children to a home at Fond du
Lac by night. So far this year the
society has found homes or assisted
mothers with the care of AT children
who otherwise would have been pub
lie charges in some desolate orphan
age The charity is a worthy one and
deserving of public support. Contri-
buttons can be mailed to Rev, D. A.
Richardson, 10 Breeze Terrace, Mad
ison, Wis. The little fellow who came
here Monday looked rather wan and
had a bad cold He will soon pick up
with the wholesome fare at the Aup-

CITY DADS
GET FACTS
ON PUMPING
Both Electric and Oil People
Have Good Propositions.
Under Consideration.

The city council has under consid-
Grafton two pumping offers made last
week, one Tuesday by the Interstate
Power Co., and the other Wednesday
by the Fairbanks-Morse oil engine
concern. :,
The light company offers to install
a power line to the plant and to fur-
nish a $4,000 pump at cost to the
city of $40 a month. At the end sof
ten years the pump will belong TO
the city. The plant would include a
0-gallon-a-minute pump and auXll-
iary equipment. Current would be SOLD
to the city for SIC kilowatt with an
estimated electric consumption or
1921 80 per month.
The Fairbanks-Morse proposition is
100 h. D. engine with direct con-
nected pump handling 500 gallons
minute. Tt is estimated that 1855 hours
a day would be required to handle
the average consumption of 100000
gallons of water a day. 1t is proposed
to sell the city the oil pump at cost
of s13 900 and take the payments out
of the saving on coal now used at the
plant.
Mr.. Cook. Fairbanks-Morse engineer,
CLAIMS In6 GuIlIS COSC VI
teh oil engine would approximate
1894 a year which figure includes
all supplies, depreciation at 1918 a
year, interest for first four years at
$3.50 a year, $195 a year for repairs
and 81 .O44 for oil and lubricant.
The plant is now handled with a
steam outfit installed 80 years ago
and kept in good repair. The biggest
item of expense is coal which now
costs $4,000 year plus hauling to
the plant. In the event of new equip
ment the steam plant would be Kept
as an emergency reserve with one
pump. The extra pumn which now
REQUIRES repairs would be ripped out
and replaced. with one or the other
outfits.
Summed up the electric method OF
pumping would cost 6.3c per thousand
gallons of water. using Interstate t1g-
ures. The Fairbanks Morse people
claim they can pump the water for
124c a thousand gallons claiming a
saving over electricity of $4,000 in
! ten years of operation. *
| City officials are advised on all
/ hands to go slow in the matter and
the governing body will doubtless take
/ its time and counsel before making a
decision. In the meantime the plant
will continue to operate with the old
and reliable if expensive steam
method

NORTHWESTERN TRAINS LATE

The Friday noon train, inbound
here from Madison, was two hours
late due to a late connection with an
incoming train from the northwest at
Madison Friday morning. The pull
out of Lancaster was made at two o.
clock, only 80 minutes behind sched-
ule. The Saturday noon train was an
hour and a half late due to similar
conditions. Train employees reported
track conditions good but said the
freeze hampered the operation of the
brakes and other moving parts of the
train.
Northwestern train traffic has in
creased since the advent of cold and
snow Thursday afternoon around Is
tickets were sold at the Lancaster
station Naturally the traffic picks
up as the train gets further away
from the starting point and crews re-
port heavier traffic at all points on
the line.
