NAVAJO INDIANS GATHER
ING UP BUFFALO TAILS

The herd Of buffalo now grazing
near Gallup and to be used in mock
stampede during the Inter-tribaI In
dian ceremonial there, August 26, is
approaching a rapid and piecemeal
extinction.
Buffalo have not been in that see
ton in so years, old timers say. And
the Indians, who have danced buffalo
dances for generations without ever
seeing a buffalo, the medicine men,
who these many years have faxed
buffalo, medicine which can cure
anything from gout to goiter-are
sharpening knives, borrowing saws,
and cutting up promiscuously.
-Four of the herd returned without
tails. Nothing can chase away the
evil spirits quicker than a buffalo
tail, the Indians believe. And nothing
brings in more income than a success
fully shoe away of evil spirits. So
the medicine men are suspected of
scalping that part which requires
much less bravery, but which brings
in more sheep and goats.
By day the Indians gather round
the nerd. BY night the owners count
the ears, horns and tails, lest by
August 26 nothing shall remain ex-
cept sweet MEMORIES and few pho
tographs.

GOVERNMENT INSPECTOR
ORDERS HORSES KILLED

DR.. and Mrs. r. NJ Ashley passed
through Winslow Thursday ON their
way to the Hopi and Navajo reserva-
tions. DR.. Ashley is the government
inspector of livestock in the states of
New Mexico and Arizona. He states
that the condition of the local sheep
and cattle has been much improved by
the dipping program that has been
under way during the last few months.
DR.. Ashley reports disease, among
horses, however, that is prevalent on
the west boundaries of both the Hopi
and Navajo reservations. Recently he
has killed 130 horses from these reser-
vations and there are 80 more with
the disease that will be killed as soon
as he returns to the reservation.
Blood tests of the animals are sent to
Washington before they are killed.

PETTY POLITICS WILL
NEVER DEVELOP RIVER


In 1916 The Messenger was the only
newspaper in the southwest that adj
vocated development of the resources
of the Colorado basin. Through col
laboration with A. T. Cornish, who is
very familiar with that section of the
country, we did our best to draw at
tention to the great waste of water
and power through inacton.
After some months there was a
slight response in northern Arizona
ami from southern California. We
were weddedsto no scheme but prefer
red the Glenn canyon site for dam
as that would de-silt the river and
hold back three years of flood supply.
Later came the League of the South
west and finally an act of congress
enabling the states to meet at Santa
Fe and enter into a compact.
Up to this time the heroes who are
trying to save" Arizona were either
in Siam, Timbuctoo or elsewhere.
Finally bunch of politicians
sensed a good issue and the Colorado
compact became a football, where to
this good hour, it remains the only
hope of those in power here in Ari-
zona, who seek continuance, not on
their record, but upon this false is
sue.
The press of the state is largely to
blame for present conditions The
Messenger, Mohave Miner and the Co.
conino Sun have not faltered in de-
fense of the Santa Fe treaty
The two daily papers in Phoenix
have wriggled and wabbled. and the
Arizona Republican,, which was once
for honest ratification, later went off
on a Heard plan, borrowed from Tom
Maddox, who invented the scheme to
gain favor with Hunt, VanDyke. and
Senator Cameron. The latter block
ed the canyon with fake placer min
ing claims, 55 of these in Arizona and
GS in Nevada.
Further confusion was secured
through the highhne canal advocates,
headed by George Fl. Maxwell, who,
evidently tried to delay action here in
Arizona until the Chandler interests
in Mexico got more land under cuIti- /
vation down in Mexico. These things
were well known to the Prescott Cour-
ier, Tucson Star, Bisbee Review and
other daily papers but no effort was
made until recently to get the truth |
before the people. Of late, WP. |
Stuart of the Prescott Courier, has.
written some good articles on the sub t
ject.
The people of Arizona desire some
action in harmony with other states of |
this region. Tie dog-in the -manger
attitude is getting us nowhere, besides
it viii eventually cause congress to
act without considering our wishes.
A conference between the states OF
California, Nevada and-Arizona, is |
set Tor August II, here in Phoenix. T
Let US hope that the governors com.
mittee rises to the occasion and that I
agreement is reached that will cause
of the car of state from the
pathway of progress. Having crowd
ed out the Legislative committee that I
could have spoken for all sections Of
the state, the governor has assumed I
4 possibility While this. confer
ance should have followed ratification
under article six of the compact, IL
ean do no serious harm and It may
cad all honest people to better under
tanding.-Phoenix Messenger.

constantly increasing tendency to
cast off sepsationalism and morbid
ness in favor of higher ideals and
clean morals.
William McAndrews, superinten-
dent of schools in Chicago, under the
caption, "Can Morality Be Taught

see the opposite of morality directly
taught by nasty dramas, salacious
literature, disorderly moving pic
lures. daily details of crime and law

efforts.

GOVERNOR APPROVES RAISING
FUND FOR CATTLE
TESTING

Governor Richie has approved the
raising of $4,000 additional funds
for retesting of dairy cattle for
tubercular infection. This sum will
be matched by $4,000 more from
the Government.
The Governor in statement re-
called that the State Board OF Agri
culture had, without his knowledge,
in one year spent 100000 of its
$4,000 State appropriation intend
ed to cover three years. He declin
ed to call special session OF the
Legislature for appropriating more
money.
He explained that the new funds
will not> be used to extend the first
tuberculin tests to new herds. but tc
retest cattle which have had one
test.
The $4,000 will be financed upor
notes from farmers entitled to
indemnities.

so not less than SO feet before

At crossings protected by tiagman

tempt to cross while fiagman is or

bells or wig-wags are in action, for
this means that train is closely
approaching.
These are a few suggestions tc
drivers which occasion no neon

prevent accidents at grade crossings
for a grade crossing is only dan
gerous when made so by careless
driving. In fact, the danger is in
the driving, not in the crossing.

FRIDAY, DECEMBER 4, 1926

Congress convenes at Washington
on Monday, December z. 1t is said
politics, despite all talk of "har-
mony" programs, will be the keynote
from the start with the 1925 con-
gressional campaign in view. That
election will be a test for the
Coolidge Administration, for Con-
gress controlled by the opposition
during the last two years Of Mr..
Coolidge's present term would not
augur well for Republican success
in 1928.
The Republicans have found their
old friend, the high protective
tariff, real perplexity this year. 1t
is hitting back at them not only
from outside but from within their
own ranks. The Democrats, know
ing this, have laid out an extensive
battle plan to embarrass and to
harass.
First of subjects on which Con-
gress will act, however, is tax reduc-
ton. The House will get the bill
drafted by its Ways and Means
Committee on the day Congress
opens. Consideration will be ex-
pedited in hope of completing the
job by Christmas, so that the
Senate may act by March Is, when
the first installment of 1925 taxes
is due.
While the House is considering
taxation the Senate will take UP the
question of whether the United
States shall enter the Permanent
Court of International Justice, in ac-
cordance with the terms laid down
by Presidents Harding and Coolidge
and ! former Secretary of State
Hughes.
Nearly all observes agree that
prospects for ratification OF the
court protocol are better now than
at any time since it first was sub
mitted. But the 'irreconcilable'
group in and out of the Senate is as
unyielding as ever and the outcome
seems to depend on how strongly the
Administration applies pressure to
the Senators still uncommitted.

To arouse greater interest in good
roads, the American Road Builders
Association has formed plans for
national observance OF Good Roads
Week during the week OF Jan
uary IL, 1926.
Schools will be asked to have
appropriate exercises, and civic
clubs will hold meetings for purpose
of discussing necessary road con-
struction.
During same week, the Associa-
ton will hold its annual convention
in Chicago, discussing road building
from two angles-one dealing with
actual construction of roads and OF
especial interest to contractors, and
the other dealing with technical and
administrative problems OF especial
INTEREST to engineers and state,
county, and city officials.
There should be third PROPOSE
tion-the interest of the taxpayer
and the type of road construction
which will give him the most for his
money, for he pays.

GROWING CHRISTMAS TREES
A COMING BUSINESS

Christmas-tree crops, raised on
plats especially set aside for the
growing of evergreens, seems to be
a coming business, say forestry
officials of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture. Although
Federal foresters do not feel that the
use of Christmas trees IS either e
menace to the. country's timber
supply or incompatible with forest
conservation, they point out that the
practice of growing small evergreens
especially for the Christmas trade is
far better than cutting them in an
indiscriminate manner.
In 1924 spruce and fir trees com
monty sold for 81 to So and more
on the streets of the larger eastern
cities. Retail prices have increased
several hundred per cent in the last
Is or 20 years and high prices are
likely to prevail in the future.
Growing Christmas trees in planta-
tions near large consuming centers
is beginning to look like an attrac-
tive business. This is particularly
true for centers in the Eastern and
Middle Western States, which are
rather distant from natural source
of supply Several such plantations
are already in existence from which
trees have been sold at prices
ranging from SO cents to $3.50 each.
In a plantation adjacent to main
road it seems probable that the
trees could be sold right on
the ground to people passing in
automobiles.
Spruces and frs, where they can
be grown, are the logical choice for
planting, because they are the most
desired as Christmas trees and COM
mand the highest prices! Since the
trees will be grown only for from
five to eight years after they are set
out, they can be planted at the rate
of 5000 to the acre.
1t is doubtful. says the depart
ment, whether Christmas-tree plan
tations would at present yield salts
factory financial returns in the South
and the far West because of the
abundant supply Of small eyergreens
found in the forests OF those
localities.

MARYLAND's RACE TRACK
BETTING IN COURT
Seals

The old equity maxim of clean
hands" is invoked by the defendants
in the race-track-b Injunction
suit filed in the United States Dis
trict Court on Monday.
The maximum says He who
comes into equity must come with
clean hands" They charge that
Robert M. Williams, the plaintiff.
who has sought to stop all betting
at<Maryland race tracks. is guilty OF
bad faith with the court. has mis-
applied and abused the processes of
the Federal Court, is himself race
track promoter and has sought the
very privileges he now attempts to
have denied to others.
Mr.. Williams, who is New York
man owning property in Maryland.
petitioned the Federal Court to stop
rece-track betting in the State on
the grounds that it was a nuisance.
had injured his property situated
near the Bowie track and that it
took thousands of dollars annually
away from the citizens of Maryland
DEPENDENTS named in the suit were
he three members of the Maryland
Racing Commission, the Maryland
Jockey Club, operators of Pimilico
track, and the Southern Maryland
Agricultural Association, which con-
ducts the Bowie track.
The plaintiff has asked the court
to have the Maryland Racing Com
mission law declared illegal and to
enjoin the various race tracks from
receiving privileges from the Racing
Commission.
