State Preparing for
Fall Special Election

Publicity pamphlets for the spe-
cial election to be held on Sept. 20
have been mailed to all of the reg
istered voters in the state with the
exception of those in Maricopa and
Pima counties.
The pamphlets will be mailed to
the voters in Maricopa and Pima
counties as rapidly as possible, it
was stated The registered voters
of Maricopa county form about
one-third OF the total registration
of the state.
The mailing of the pamphlets to
the voters of Maricopa and Pima
counties has already been start
ed and it is expected that all of the
pamphlets will be mailed before
the end of the month.
The pamphlets contain the two
referendum measures to be voted
on, one proposing to change the
constitution to allow the passage
of d wOrkmen's compensation bill
and the other, repeating the pres
ent game and fish code and au-
thOrizing the Legislature to enact
new one.

Reported WinslOw Leads
Country in Automobiles

A story is going the rounds that
a New York newspaper, either the
Wall Street Journal, the Journal of
Commerce, the Times or the World,
recently printed a story that Wins
low, Arizona, possessed more auto
mobiles per capita than any other
city III the United States, and that
Winslow led the country in the
sale of autos per capita during the
last year.
No one at The Winslow Mail saw
the article, and no one with whom
members of The Mail staff talked
had actually seen it, but had talked
with others who did see it. The
report was heard in Flagstaff, too
There are lot of live autOmo-
bile statesmen in Winslow, for a
fact, and while it would not be
surprising if Winslow leads the
country in possession of cars. it
would be very surprising if New
York, or Flagstaff, had heard
about it.
Winslow takes more pride, how
ever, in its probable lead in an
other vehicle-the baby carriage
or if not in carriages, at least in
babies

CLEAR CREEK BATH
HOUSES LEASED BY
WINSLOW COUNCIL

The city council met in regular
monthly session Tuesday evening
and among other matters decided
to lease the bath houses at the
Clear creek swimming pool from
the Santa Fe railroad, owner of
the property.
No plan was discussed by the
council for the improvement or
alteration of the grounds, and it
is not likely that such measures
will be taken, according to the
members. The lease will be taken
to protect the Santa Fe's title
against sQuatter's rights, and will
be drawn up at a minimum charge
of an almost negligible sum per
year.
1t was voted at the meeting to
raise the fire insurance on the city
hall from $4,000 to $4,000 and also
to install a street light on the
corner of Kinsley avenue and Sec
ond street and one on the corner
of Hicks avenue and Second
City Engineer H. r. Lendecke
was instructed by the council to
construct concrete sidewalk in
front of the property belonging to
Trula Richardson, which consists
of fifty-foot lot on the west side
of Winslow avenue between Elm
and Maple streets With the COM
pletion of this walk, Winslow ave-
nue. will be paved with sidewalk
all the way into town, it was
pointed out
Just before the close of the meet
ing a petition prepared by a num-
ber of taxpayers owning property
on Third and Fourth streets was
presented to the council in which
the taxpayers objected to the paw
ing petition which had been cir
culated by Warren Brothers re-
garding the paving of these two
streets in the near future AS the
petition of Warren Brothers had
not yet been presented to the
council, no action was taken on
the protesting petition.

Santa Fe Ice Plant Is
Ready for Grape Rush

At least 10000 tons of ice will
be supplied by the Santa Fe ice
plant here during the grape ship
ment from California, which is be-
ginning this week. if present cal
culatiOns are correct. The grapes
will continue to move all through
this month and during the greater
part of September.
About 5000 tons of ice will be
on hand in the winter storage
house for use during the rush, NJ.
G. Moore, superintendent of the ice
plant, says, and capacity of
probably 200 tons per day will be
maintained by the plant during The
next two months to supply the
grape cars and the regular mar
kets for the ice During the can
taloupe shipment $4,000 tons of ice
was used to ice the cantaloupe
cars, Mr.. Moore says.
F. A. Maginnis, general man
ager of Santa Fe ice plants; c F
Moore, general superintendent Of
ice plants, and Norman Gay, prasi-
dent of the Vilter Ice Machine com
pany, were visitors at the plant
this week. NJ A. Pardee, of the

M. Berkowitz and
H. c. NEEDLES Form
New Business Firm

M. BerkowitZ moved the stock of
the Berkowitz secondhand store
this week from the location on
East Second street to the property
on East Third street, adjoining the
Standard Oil company lots. Here
Mr.. Berkowitz and H. C. NEEDLES
will conduct a secondhand and
auto wrecking business on a large
scale.
The residence which formerly
occupied the front of the lot has
been moved to the rear and Mr..
and Mrs. Berkowitz will make their
home there, while the building for
merly used by Ford & Cousins as
a garage will house the second
hand goods business temporarily.
The lot back of the garage building
will be used as a wrecking yard for
cars and different kinds of ma
chinery.
Mr.. BerkowitZ and Mr.. NEEDLES
have extensive plans under way for
the construction of a large fire
proof building in the near future to
house the secondhand goods stock.
When the building is completed a
line of new goods will also be add
ed to the store, according to pres
ent plans, although the second
hand ware will occupy most of the
space.
People would hardly believe
that almost $1,000 worth of So
called junk is burned up in Wins
low every month" Mr.. Berkowitz
says, "but / believe it is So" Mr..
Berkowitz finds use for old clothes,
odds and ends of everything. He
will continue his hide, wool and
scrap metal business also.
With the beginning of the next
swimming season Mr.. Berkowitz
and Mr.. NEEDLES expect to have a
concrete swimming pool 50x100 feet
built on the northwest corner of
the lot. Bath houses with show
ers are to be erected and concrete
walks will circle the pool.

Attempt to Change
Route of Old Trails

(Mohave County Miner, Kingman.)
If State Engineer w. c. Lefebvre
would put in all of his time work
ing on road problems he would
have all the work on his hands
that he could we'll care for. His
present move is on Washington
His plan is to divert the National
Old Trails road south to meet New
Mexican highways at or near Que
mado, and carry them to Springer
vile, thence to HOlbrook. While it
may be possible that the federal
good roads people may consent to
bringing in that piece of roadway
under the per cent system, it will
be understood that the National
Old Trails has been routed by that
road organization by way of Gal
lup, and that no matter what may
be done in the matter, no one has
authority to reroute the road. The
constitution of the National Old
Trails has fixed the locus of the
road from its starting point on the
Atlantic coast to the Pacific and
it is just as firmly established as
railroad.
The reason given by the state
engineer for the rerOuting of the
road through Springerville is an
old one The fact that people trav-
ell from Ell Paso westward and de-
sire to get on the Old Trails is no
reason why the main highway
across the state should be diverted
to the south so far that the big
mass of travel from the north and
east should have to travel an extra
eighty-four miles to give the few
from the south the pleasure of glid-
ing over our good road. 1t was
made public a year or so ago that
this class of travellers would be
cared for by the road from Clifton
to ST. Johns, and this road has
been built. On the other hand,
there is a good road westward
from FL PaSo to Tombstone and
other Southeastern Arizona towns
that could take care of this traffic
and if they wished to come north
they could make the trip by way
of Phoenix and Prescott

My Favorite Room
By MARGI HOPKINS.

Ny favorite room is one so large
that no mortal builder could in
close it, and SO magnificent that
no architect, however skilled, could
hope to match the beauty or the
charm of its design. It's great, ex-
tensive walls rise in splendid
mountainsides, each hung with un-
framed pictures to fascinate the
artists eye; the ceiling like a
great, blue dome stretches far
above until it is lost in the vastness
of unknown depths of sky; and the
floor spreads out in soft, sweet,
virgin earth beneath.
Within the room little rolling
knolls lie like pillows on the floor
Rugs of green, smooth grass are
strewn about, and on one of them
rests huge old boulder which is
my faVorite chair. Brush and
trees like captive house plants
stand about and a clear, cool
stream trickles by.
Here l love to come that I may
sit and dream and watch at just
that time when twilight weds the
night, and with the dark, tower
ing canyon walls bear silent wit
ness to the sacred ceremony. Tur-
tie doves from the dimly outlined
trees embossed upon the canyons
sides send forth sleepy note and
coo in concert euphonious nuptial
airs; the deep-voiced frogs by the
waters edge, as if to supplement
the theme, pour out their throaty
bass, and the stream plays a we'd
ding march for the bridal pair.
Then the music ceases and a
drowsy calm ensues. Through the
stiffness Mother Nature comes and
softly tiptoes through the room.
She tucks in all her children
already covered with the night, and
gives them each a tender kiss as
she prays that they shall know no
harm. Then she pulls aside the
curtains from the stars and steals
away to leave my favorite room to
darkness, to my favorite chair, and
to me-

SUPERVISORS
WILL SETTLE:
OF
BONDS AUC.lO

The last discussion of the bond
issue problem confronting the Nav
aJo county board of supervisors
Will be held Monday, when a deci-
sion of some kind will be arrived
at, either to bond the county to the
full legal limit, or modify the bond
issue and take care of outstanding
obligations by direct taxation.
The bond issue has been held in
allegiance for several weeks while
Investigations of the need of the
issue were made at the request OF
the Arizona Taxpayers association
and the Santa Fe railroad. All
outstanding and unpaid warrants
have been checked over during the
last two weeks, and it is stated
that opponents of the bond issue
will attend the meeting Monday,
fortified with reports made from
data gathered during the investi-
cation.
1t has been reported that the
Santa Fe will continue to oppose
a bond issue greater than $4,000.
The supervisors had planned to is
sue 100000 of bonds, but later
changed their plan to limit the
bond issue to $SS,O0O, the limit al
lowed by law for a bond issue not
voted by the people.
The meeting Monday will be a
regular session of the supervisors.
and before the bond matter will be
taken up the budgets for the coun-
ty and several municipalities will
be adopted.
