BABY BANDIT CAUGHT

The mystery of the stolen automo-
bile switch keys has been solved.
The desperate thief whom the po-
lice believed to be man collecting
keys for the nefarious purpose of
later returning and making off with
either the car to which they belonged
or one of similar make, proved to be
a lad of three years and half, and
the detective who tracked him to his
lair was his own mother. Several
dozen keys believed to have been
stolen from automobiles during the
past few weeks, were brought to The
Review and can be recovered by their
owners. They were found in the
pockets of the lads trousers along
with a dead mouse or two, several
hair pins, dozen marbles and
broken comb.
The youthful burglar could make no
as to why. he took the
keys.-Bisbee Daily Review.

LOST TRYING TO
DELYE INTO HIS PAST

During the past week Sheriff Ma
honey has made continued efforts to
find the identity of the unfortunate
man the officers picked up here last
week who did not know his name,
where he was from or where he was
going. So far they have not been able
everything that has happened since
he met the officer on Fourth and
Front streets.
He has occasional impressions of
his past and says that he remembers
working as private secretary to Kin
zey at the Treadwel mine. Kinney
left Treadwell in 1915 and so it must
have been prior to that. Also he says
he remembers doing some work for a
man named Bradley at the Treadwell.
He also thinks he worked for
Ray Con at Hayden and remembers a
friend there by the name of Joe H.
Browne, who was purchasing agent
for the company.
He also recalls having worked for
the d. & r. G. at Salt Lake City
when they were moving from the old
building to the new. He worked in
either the superintendent or dis
patcher's office he says.
At Treadwell he believes he was
married and that his wife died there.
However, the whole thing is so indis-
tinct that he cannot so far find any
thing that will tell him who he is.
The only Identification he has is
belt with the initials "W E. d. on it.
He is a. man about 38 years old,
weighs about 135 pounds, brown hair
with a tinge of gray, wears glasses
and has a scar on his upper lip. He
is educated in higher accounting,
stenography and tipping, has good
personality and gentlemanly bearing.
He is very anxious to find out who he
is and any help will be appreciated.
He is still in the custody of Sheriff
Mahoney. -Kingman Miner.

AN OPEN LETTER TO THE
PEOPLE OF DIST. NO. |

After serious consideration I have
decided to again ask for the suffrage
of the people of Supervisoral District
No. 1 for the office of Supervisor
The duties of my present position take
nv entire time and | find it imp0s
sible to make an active campaign, S
must reach the voters through the
press and by mail.
I believe [ am known to practically
every voter in the district and am
running upon my record during my
six years of service on the. Board Of
Supervisors.
During my service on the Board |
interested myself in the extension of
the public school system Throughout
the County. During that time we
established six rural school districts,
Winona, Anderson Canyon, Harring
ton Lake., Upper Oak Creek, Govern
nent. Prairie, Bellemont and Tuba.
New. school houses were built at Ere
donia, Grand Canyon, Harrington
Lake, Upper Oak Creek, Bellemont
and Government Prairie, without a
dollars. bonded indebtedness.

county bond case and finally induced

Coconino County, and the recovery OF

/ invite investigation of my activ
tiles in the interest of good roads
When | first entered upon my duties
as Supervisor there was less than tel
miles of legally established highways
in the County. When my last tern
expired all of the main highways were
established and compared were favor
ably with the highways through the
state.
During the Flu epidemic spent my
entire time in the establishment o.
temporary hospitals and in an effort
to relieve the suffering of the hund.
reds of victims of that dreaded dis
ease.
I was the first person to advocate
the sale of the Bright Angel Trail to
the government and heartily endorsed.
the bill appropriating $100,000.00 for
it's purchase. In the proposed ex-
change Goconino County will lose q
net income of less than $5000.00 pen
year, but wilt gain a $600,000.00 high
way from the Old Trails highway to
the Grand Canyon and will be relieved
of its maintainanee for all time
which if properly built and maintain
ed will save at least $10,00000 year
to Coconino County in maintainancea
alone.
During my service as supervisor
the business of Coconino County
always came first, to the detriment OF
my own business. IF again elected
to that office promise the same un-
tiring efforts to the best interest of
the county that were given during
my previous service.
If the voters of District No. 1 feel
that / merit their support they may
be sure it will be appreciated.

RIGHT OF STATE IN
BUS LINES UPHELD
BY FEDERAL COURT

The authority of the state to regu-
late operation of interstate stage lines
on its highways was upheld by a fed
eral court in equity sitting in Los
Angeles, according to advices receiv
ed at the attorney generals office.
The court denied an application for
an injunction sought by the Intena-
tional Stage company to restrain Ari-
zona officials from interfering with
traffic on their bus lines from Jaurez,
Mex, to Los Angeles. The company
had been denied a certificate of con-
venience and necessity by the state
corporation commission on the ground
that the territory was already ade-
quately served.
Railroad carriers of Arizona were
granted an injunction by the same
court enjoining the Arizona corpora
tion commission from collecting about
$78, 900 in freight rate reparations for
the Apache Powder Co. Officials
expect this case to be carried to the
United States supreme court for final
decision.
The case grew out of an opinion by
the commission holding that rates
enargedi by the falIrOau OH pFouuctS
from the powder company's plant to
all points in the state were exces-
sive. The commission ordered redtlc-
tions of approximately 40 per cent
in the rates and instructed the carri-
ers to pay approximately $4,000 in
reparations to the company because
Of the previous alleged over charges
in the rates.
Both cases were referred to. the
federal court in equity by Federal
Judge Fred G. Jacobs Of Phoenix.

RICHER ORE BODY LOCATED ON
1O0O-FT. LEVEL VERDE CENTRAL


A body of ore said to consistently
carry higher values than any before
discovered has been located below the
1000-foot level in the Verde Central
mine ct Jerome, according to word
from the camp. This body of, ore is
said to be different and separated
from any before discovered in the
mine, although it is thought possible
that the two veins have some connec-
ton at depth. At present, however,
they are SO widely separated that they
are being considered as different bod
les.
The new, body was opened in the
1005-foot drift and again in the 1909
foot drift, where it was discovered to
be of higher grade. A crosscut of at
least 600. feet from the present bottom
of the shaft would be required to get
under the 1905 drift, it is said, and
one of from 400 to 500 feet to reach
it from the lower level.
The shaft now is all in ore that
averages not less than per cent and
wide bands of material that assay
from Is to 20 per cent have been cut.
Every round of shots is said to show
the ore little more solid that 1t was
before
Cutting of a station on what is
known as the Twelfth level is now un-
der way. The actual depth is 1856
feet and it is 200 feet below the 1000
level, the vertical depth of which is
856 feet. The shaft is to be carried
down 200 feet deeper and a sump cut
below that. Then laterals will be run
and the ore developed ON the eleventh
Twelfth, thirteenth and fourteenth
levels. All, of course, will be connect
ed with the levels above by raises.
That will give the Verde Central
seven levels counting the sixth, eighth
and tenth, from which ore can be ex-
tracted.
The management now expects that
the shaft, with all necessary stations,
will be completed by November 1, and
that the Verde Central can be put in
shape to produce early next year.
