TRAIL ENDS FOR NOTED
OLD MORMON SCOUT

Word has been received of the
death, at the home of a son in the
Gila Valley, of Ammon M. Tenney,
one of the most famous of pioneer
Mormon scouts in the southwest. For
about a year, till lately, he had been
an inmate of the state pioneers home
at Prescott.
Tenney was second only to the noted
Jacob Hamblin as missionary explorer
in northern Arizona. With Hamblin
and several Welshmen, he was in the
Hopi villages as early as 1858, MEM
ber of an expedition that had been
sent by Brigham Young to investigate
a report that the Indians spoke Welsh.
In 1865 he participated in one of the
very rare battles between Mormons
and Indians, when he and two others
fought their way out of a Gordon of
hostile Navajos
In 1870 Tenney was, with Hamblin
as a guide for Major J. w. Powell in
trip from Utah through the Navajo
country to Fort Defiance, participat-
ing in great council with about 5000
indians, under very dramatic circurrf-
stances. Later he went on several ex-
peditions into the Indian country with
Hamblin, upon whose tombstone at
Alpine is inscribed "Peacemaker
Among the Lamanites." "Lamanites"
is the general designation of Nall
American Indians among the Nor
mons.
In 1877 Tenney, under official
church direction, led in the establish
ment of Woodruff on the Little Colo@
rado and in 1879, acting for the church
bought large tract of land on which
is present city of st. Johns. He was
a missionary to the Zunis and a grad
ing contractor with John w. Young
on the Atlantic and Pacific railway
line. In 1876 he accompanied Daniel
w. Jones, founder of Lehi, on Mexi-
can trip that included Phoenix, Tucson
and Ell Paso on its route.

TUCSON MAN FINED S2O0 ON
FEDERAL PROHIBITION Law

T. J. McCafferty of Tucson was
fined 5000 for possession and second
offense of transportation of intoMi-
eating liquors in violation of the ma
tional prohibition act. An automo-
bile was ordered confiscated.
McCafferty was arrested Wednes-
day night at the Florence bridge by
border patrol of the immigration
forces. The patrol was acting in CO.
operation with the prohibition en-
forcement agents. A wire stretched
across the bridge effectively halted
McCafferty, who was driving an auto
mobile. A search of the car revealed
three 10-gallon kegs and four five
gallon kegs containing about so gall
Ions of rye whiskey, officers said.
McCafferty waived hearing before
the United States commissioner and
was held under a $1,000 bond to an
swer to the federal district court. APP
pearing before the court he entered a
plea of guilty to the charges preferred
against him.

G. 0. P. OF STATE STARTS
WAR ON SEN. CAMERON

Phoenix, Nov. 10.-In bulletin is
sued from republican state central
committee headquarters here, officials
of the republican state organization
are unit in denouncing the recent ac-
ton of Senator Ralph H. Cameron in
securing the summary dismissal of
Frank r. Stewart as collector of in
ternal revenue for this district, as
purely political maneuver on the part
of the senator in an effort to bolster
up his fast fading prestige with a
small faction of the republican party
in furtherance Of his political ambi-
tions for 1926.
Among those filing protests with
the president and Commissioner Blair,
of the internal revnue department at
Washington against Stewards re-
moval were Thomas E. Campbell, re-
publican national committeeman, III.
S. Corbett and W. w. PickreH, chair
man and secretary, respectively, of
the republican state committee, Mrs.
j. L. B. Alexander, president of the
Republican Women's club of Arizona,
Dwight B. Heard and many members
of the executive committee of the re-
publican state committee, and most
of the republican county chairnen.
It is pointed out by republican Off
cials that Senator Cameron, since his
election, has persistently ignored the
republican party organization of the
state in making appointments; that
most of his appointees have been re-
moved or dismissed from office when
they attempted to administer the va
rious offices in behalf of the people
rather than in behalf of the senator's
political fortunes, and that since he
has consistently failed to support the
organization he can scarcely expect to
receive any political support from the
organization in 1926. In fact, con-
sensus of opinion as expressed
through officials of the republican orr
ganization is that should Senator
Cameron seek the republican nomina-
tion for senator in 1926 he will meet
overwhelming defeat at the primaries
