M' MULLEN NOT YET RELIEVED
AS HEAD OF NORMAL SCHOOL

Action on the resignation of Pres
ident L. B. McMullen of the Northern
Arizona Normal school at Flagstaff
probably will not be taken until C. o.
Case state superintendent of public in
struction, has returned from trip
through the east, according to Frank
st. John, assistant superintendent.
Mr.. McMullen rendered his resigna-
ton to the institution some time ago,
but the board declined to accept it as
warm concentrations for the work of
Mr.. McMullen were expressed. Mr.
McMullen desired to resign, he said,
so as to accept post in the Teachers
college of Columbia university.
The meeting relative to the matter
probably will be called shortly after
Mr.. Cases return, expected to be
early next week. Those who are serv-
ing with Mr.. Case on the board are
James Kennedy of Williams, and Sam
w. Proctor of Winslow.

WOMEN TO FIGHT
ROAD BILL BOARDS

Women of Arizona, through the
agencies of their various clubs and
organizations, are ahgning themselves
enthusiastically with movement to
smash the promiscuous road signs
This was the announcement made
by E. S. Wheeler, head of the federal
road office, an enthusiastic advo-
cate of the abolition of all advertising
signs on the highway right-of-way
and of state regulation of those signs
along the roadways but off the right
of-way.
"Officers of many women's clubs
from several parts fthe state have
written me of their intense interest
in any plan that will eliminate the
road sign menace" said Mr.. Wheeler,
who, although his official duties do
not include anything but the actual
building and maintenance of good
roads, has for a long time been re-
lentless enemy of the road signs.
Mr.. Wheeler is grateful for the
many offers of support which have
come to him from the club women,
he said He has in mind proposed
statute for Arizona which is similar
to the one in force in the state of
Massachusetts, law which bans all
signs from road right-of-ways and
regulates those which are just off the
right-o
The desirable provisions of the
Massachusetts law will be incorporat-
ed with other good features of other
plans and copies for a proposed sta
tute for introduction in the Arizona
legislature at its next session will be
run off by Mr.. Wheeler.
He will mail copies of the draft to
the heads of more than 60 women's
clubs of the state, for their inspection.
If they approve of the draft their
support in anything that may be done
will be appreciated, he declared.
Roughly, the proposed bill would ban
all signs from the right-of way It
would permit signs to be erected at
certain distances off the right-of- way
under certain regulations. The adver-
tisers would be required first to get
permission from the state and then
from the land owners. They would
then be allowed to erect signs of GER
tain size to be dependent on the dis
tances from the right-of-way at which
they would be built.

ARIZONA VALUATION
OF RAILS INCREA SES

By an order of the state tax com
mission, the Southern Pacific main
line through Arizona has been given d
tax valuation Of $27,11O,O0O on the
main line trackage of 3o3 miles. It's
subsidiary, the Arizona Eastern, with
371 miles, is assessed at $13,308, 900,
of which $6,703, 900 is on the 134-nnile
Bowie-Globe branch and $1,746, 900 on
the 35-mile Maricopa Phoenix branch.
The Phoenix & Eastern branch, of 81
miles, is valued at $3,O03, 900.
The Atchinson, Topeka & Santa Fe
system, with 1856 miles of main line
and a gross mileage of 875, is valued
at $39,554,430 (or very near the valu-
alton of the combined Southern Pacif-
ic and Arizona Eastern. It's main line
valuation is $27 ,024 900, also happen
ing to be close to that of the Southern
Pacific main line.
In all within the state are 2441
miles of railroad, with valuation at
$1O1, ,319,969. A net valuation increase
for the year issnoted of $776,173.

COUNTIES OF STATE MUST
REGISTER INDIAN VOTERS

Officials of the respective counties
should make their own provisions for
registering and voting of Indians, ac-
cording to announcement by Attorney
General John w. Murphy.
His assertion amplified an opinion
handed down by himself several days
ago that recent congressional act
enfranchises the Indians, and entities
them to register and vote for the COM
ing elections, subject to the qualifica-
tons of any other citizen.
The opinion explained, however,
that the state has no authority to es-
tablish registering and voting places
on the goyernment-owned Indian res
ervations. The only thing that states
and counties could do by their own
volition, the opinion explained, would
be to extend the most convenient vot-
ing precinct SO as to include the res
ervation.

PLAN LAFOLLETTE
TICKET IN ARIZONA

A movement is under way, aided by
those union labor forces who are in
fluenced by the Arizona Labor Jour
nal, to put a LalFollette state ticket
in the field in Arizona, and to nomi-
nate candidates for state offices on a
third party ticket. The LaFollette
men would indorse Governor Hunt, all
though he is very much opposed to
the movement in this state, or else
where. In it's issue of last Friday
the Labor Journal severely arraigned
the democratic presidential nominee,
stating that in nominating Davis,
"The requiem of democratic hopes for
victory in November had been sung"
Although strong for Governor Hunt,
the Labor Journal and those swayed
by it are very friendly toward Thomas
Maddox, who is seeking the republi-
can nomination for the governorship,
and has defended the administration
of Maddox as state engineer against
the findings of the joint legislative
committee which investigated the high
way department.

ARIZONA HIGHWAY
ADVOCATES ACTIVE

Advocates of a paved highway from
Hassayampa to Ehrenberg, opposite
Blythe, as a section of through pave
ment between Phoenix and Los Ange-
les again are active. They have filed
petitions bearing about 1000 names,
assuring placing of the proposition on
the ballot this fall.
1t is backed especially by the Phoe-
nix Realty board and Phoenix junior
chamber of commerce and its propo-
nents declare that the added gasoline
tax secured through the building of
the road would more than pay for it,
while it would serve as a much closer
bond of union than now known be-
tween this state and southern Cali
fornia.
The plan is being bitterly attacked
by the Arizona communities on the
Borderland highway to the south and
the Old Trails highway to the north,
as directed against their tourist traf-
fic.

KINGMAN PAYS TRIBUTE
TO DECEASED CHINAMAN

Last Sunday afternoon at two
o'clock the spacious Elk Hall was fill
ed to overflowing by people who came
from far and near to pay their tribute
Of respect to the late Bill Yee. The
casket bearing the remains of our well
known Chinese townsman was banked
with masses of beautiful flowers, tri-
butes from people in ever walk of life
in the county who had grown to adj
mire and respect this splendid fellow.
The choir sang several appropriate
hymns, and Rev. Dr. Williams of the
M. E. church offered prayer. Judge
c. G. Krook paid a most feeling tri-
butte to the man and told of the many
acts of kindness done and of the po-
sition he had built for himself in the
community. "Bill zee, said the speak
er, "will long be mourned in King
man and Mohave county, where every
body knew him and held him in the
highest esteem" The sympathy of the
big gathering of people went out to
the lonely little woman who had been
deprived of her consort by the grim
hand of death, and whose grief APP
peared to be inconsolable -Kingman
Miner.

VOTE OF INDIANS IN ARIz. 5000

The late congressional act granting
the voting privilege to Indians is ex-
pected to add about 5000 to the Ari-
zona electorate. In the last census
Arizona is given an Indian population
of about $4,000. The largest tribe,
with some of its membership in New
Mexico and Utah, is the Navajo, IT,
500. The Hopi number about 4,5OO.
Wallapai, 400; Mohave in Mohave
county, 235; Mohave in Yuma county,
1000; 'Papago, mainly in Pima county,
3,700; Pima, in Pinal and Maricopa
counties, 1000; White Mountain Apa-
che, in Apache and Navajo counties,
$500; San Carlos Apache, in Gila and
Graham counties, 866. A few hum
dred Mohave Apache are at Mcdowell,
Maricopa county, and around Camp
Verde, Yavapai county; several hum
dred Havasupai are in Cataract Cam
yon, Coconino county and sereval hum
dred are scattered in the district north
of the Grand Canyon and are in EN-
ployment around the state. Probably
200 are working in the city Of Phoenix
alone. Most Of the Yuma tribe lives
on the California side of the Colora-
do river
Just what proportion of the Indian
population can qualify as voters will
be determined mainly on educational
qualifications. Schooling is general on
the reservations, as we'll as in such
notable schools as that at Phoenix.

NAVAJO COUNTY FORCED BY
COURT TO PAY SI3,872.65

Navajo county must pay for the
construction of a bridge across the
Little Colorado near Winslow, accord
ing to a decision made Tuesday in the
district federal court at Prescott by
Judge Fred G. Jacobs in suit
brought by Louis f. Mesmer, con-
tractor, who was given a judgment
for ST., 3,S72.65.
Mesmer and his partner, the testi-
mony showed, built the bridge across
the river under contract with the
Navajo county board of supervisors
and payment for part of the con-
tract bid of $4,000 was received but
the balance has remained unpaid.
The bridge was constructed in 1916
and 1917, but due to delays in filings
the claim the hearing was postponed
until Judge Jacobs was appointed to
the federal bench. Upon the hearing
of the final law questions, the Judge
took the matter under advisement
making his decision Tuesday-Hol-
brook Tribune.

GAINS, YAVAPAI :.
LOSES TAXABLE WEALTH

A gain in the valuation of Coconino
county and a loss in Yavapai county
are indicated in valuation statements
Of these counties received by the state
tax commission.
The valuation placed on Coconino
county is $20,684,248 and on Yavapai
county, $92,138,541. These valuations
are subject to review by the state
board of equalization which VIII meet
late this month. The Yavapai coun-
ty valuation shows a small loss from
that of 1923, while increased lumber
ing activities and the growth of the
industry are responsible for gains in
the Coconino county valuation over
1923.

MONTOYA CAPTURED

Manuel Montoya was taken into
custody last week by an official at
Gallup. Notice was sent to Apache
county officers and Deputy Sheriff
Platt went over and got the prisoner.
Montoya is the man who, about year
ago, stole horse from Fred Duran
and one from the Tucker Livestock
Co., also bed and other articles from
Tom Jones at Cedro ranch and a six
shooter from John Jones, a workman
at the ranch. Sheriff Haws and his
deputies at that time gave Montoya a
long chase but he finally escaped into
the mountains in New Mexico.
Upon being brought into court here
Wednesday, Montoya entered plea
of guilty and was sentenced by Judge
Gibbons to serve from one and one
half to three years in the state peni-
tentiary.-St. Johns Observer.

BOY PRISONERS IN JAIL BREAK

Felipe Ross and Alfonso Vance, two
of the three youths who were arrested
early this week in Flagstaff as they
were on their way to the New Mexico
line with d Chevrolet car alleged to
have been stolen in Clarkdale, made
their escape from Jail at night BY
letting themselves down from the win
dow of the jury room, on the third
floor of the court house, with rope
made of strips of the inner-strip used
in automobile castings, reinforced and
heightened with piece of chain.
When the jailor opened the door Of
the jury room, where he had parked
the boys, due to the congestion in the
cells and tanks, he found the window
open, the prisoners flown, and the
long strip of white canvas and rubber
floating in the early morning breeze.
It is thought that the two youthful
prisoners had let down length Of
string TO confederate below and then
pulled up the makeshift rope BY which
they escaped.

MINIATURE WHIRLWIND HIT
HOLBROOK LAST MONDAY

A miniature cyclone struck the
north part Of Holbrook Monday, caus-
ing damage to various buildings, fen
ces, etc. Henry Lees service station
was swung from its original site to a
new resting place some five or six
feet away. The two gasoline pumps
were upset and had to be replaced. A
house belonging to VIM. Brinkerhoff,
janitor of the court house, had the
roof torn off, while the fence around
the camp ground at the Service gar
age was torn down in places. Several
windows were broken, and a barn be-
longing to w. B. Farr was turned
over, the roof resting on the ground.
A window in the rear of the Marleau
lapidary establishment was shattered
by rock which the twister picked up.

taking many good catches of perch
but that practically no bass is being
caught this year. The new road is
finished to within four miles of the
lake, and it is estimated that. there
are 5000 campers at the resort, which
is becoming more popular with each
succeeding year. Many of the camp
ers are building cabins.-Prescott

NEWS GENERAL STATE OF ARIZONA
FRIENDLY PHOENIX VISITOR
GIVES FLAGSTAFF A BOOST

The following is copy of a letter
from friendly Flagstaff booster who
wants the folks down in Salt River
Valley to know what they are missing
by not taking their vacation in North
ern Arizona:
Editor Gazette:
| would like to tell you something
of our vacation trip we have been
making through Northern Arizona.
We have been having bully time.
We meet people who tell us the roads
are awful, but we get through all
right. ] suppose it is because we do
not try to go over fifteen or twenty
miles an hour instead of forty or
fifty. The roads are a little rough in
spots, but as whole, considering the
population of the state, they are
wonderful and getting better. When
you consider a good road thirty-five
to seventy-five miles between habit
ations, / do believe you would find
the same conditions in any other state
in the Union. Besides if you want
better roads, patronize our own beaut-
iful Northern Arizona, and if you
want California people to spend their
vacations up here where it is much
superior to anything in California,
spend your vacation here and help
improve roads and conditions at home.
I want to take off my hat to Flag
staff. They have a real City Park
here with electric lights, city water,
plenty of wood, brick cook stoves,
garbage cans, baseball park, grand
stand, toilets and baths and splen-
did dance hall. You will like the
people here just as you do the home
folks, maybe more so. | will try and
get few bottles Of their pep and
send it to our city fathers in Phoenix
in order they may provide camp
ground somewhere as good and at as
reasonable rates. All they ask is 25
cents per night with cheaper rates by
the week.
This would be great place for a
powder puff factory. / haven't seen
a powder puff in town. Tie girls
all have to depend on the climate for
their color and it looks fine at that.
1t must be relief to the young fell
lows to know it won't come off.
There are going to be no moths in our
blankets either. Why wouldn't it be
better for you to roll yours up and
come here instead of packing them
away with moth balls? There is
plenty here to see. We have been to
Grand Canyon, Shulz Pass, Ice Caves,
Lava Beds, Sunset Peak, Lake Mary,
Mormon Lake and are not half
through. We are going to the Natur-
al Bridge, Painted Desert, Petrified
Forest, Meteor Mountain, Pine and
Payson and many other places if we
have the time. If you want any more
natural wonders there are plenty of
them. Another thing, why in Needles
don't our Chamber of Commerce put
some of our valley reading matter
up here in the City Park for tourists
going both ways. There is an aver
age of forty cars camped here daily.
| wish could write like some Zane
Grey so / could tell you about the
country, but beliye it or not it is here.
Yours comfortably,
ROSS HANSON
