the purpose of Kidding the lakes of
carp, buffalo and other rough fish.
Where carp are not controlled they
soon drive out the game fish.
The practice of giving contracts to
the highest bidding seiners does not
accomplish the purpose of the law, ac-
cording to Mr.. Gould. The law now
provides that the privilege of seining
is given to the highest bidder, the
state taking certain percentage Of
his profits. However, the seiners were
not compelled to seine lakes for small
carp which are hard to net, it was
pointed out, and instead they move
on to another lake where the haul is
more profitable. The result is that
rough fish are left in the lakes.
1t was the opinion that the seining
contracts should be awarded to men
who have the proper equipment and
who have proved they are reliable and
responsible.
Further action will be deferred un-
til an organization is formed to work
out systematic seining plan which
will serve to the best interests of the
state and the fishermen.

CHANGE PLANS

Minnesota's policy of selling COM
mercial fishing rights to the highest
bidders for the purpose of preserving
the game fish, is about to be aban-
doned, it was indicated at meeting
at the old capitol recently, attended
by Governor Christensen, Jay Gould,
state game and fish commissioner, and
representatives Of the sportsmen and
commercial fishermen of the state.
Although no definite action was
taken it Isl expected that Mr.. Gould
will recommend action to the COVER
nor and that he will approve it.
Permission to seine certain varie-
ties of fish in Minnesota lakes was
extended to commercial fishermen for

LEWIS DOUGLAS

FLAGSTAFF -. Lewis w. Doug
las, candidate for congressman on
the Democratic ticket, spoke before
a large and enthusiastic crowd
here Saturday evening. In speak
ing of the primaries he said: "Any
candidate for legislative or an ex-
ecutive office who has not the cour-
age to get up and say what he
thinks, regardless of political ex-
pediency, is not giving the voters a
square deal"
Commenting on an editorial in
the Coconino Sun to the effect that
he would not be successful in his
campaign, by virtue of the fact
that he was telling the truth, Mr..
Douglas said: "I shall not change
my policy of speaking the truth as
1 see it. I believe that the people
of Arizona want the truth. At any
rate, I will not lie to obtain votes. -
He then went on to speak of the
Colorado river: "The river must
be developed from the head of the

Ellinwood Attacks
Gasoline Expenses
Of State Highways

CLIFTON-"Governor Hunt says
am attacking Democratic ad-
ministration. 1t is the first time l
have ever heard the governor hide
behind the word Democratic in
speaking of the administration 1t
has always been my administra-
tion," E. E. Ellinwood, Democratic
candidate for governor here Mon
day night.
The greater part of Elinwood's S
address was devoted to an attack
of the highway department "as
controlled by the governor" "If it
were not for the road machine in
this state, Hunt would not be run
ming for governor today" he said
He went on to say that the audi
tors report for the past year shows
that there has been $177,060.90
spent for highway department gas
oline alone, at cost of % cents
per gallon, tax exempt. He said
that it is fair to presume that all
of this gasoline was not used for
road work and that ali of the trips
made by the state cars were not
official business. There was some
JOY riding" he charged.
The speaker was introduced by
Pete Reilly, head of the Democratic
committee and mayor of Clifton.

and power plants must be located
within the state in order that this
state may have the right to tax
power. The development of power,
with the switchboard and power
house within Arizona, will consti-
tute the greatest addition to the
taxable wealth of this state and
will go far toward protecting those
engaged in the permanent indus
tries in this state against the day
when the mines are gone A treaty
with California is essential to the
protection of Arizona's rights and
is the only practical way by which
the Swing-Johnson bill and the
construction of the Boulder Canyon
dam can be prevented"
Mr.. Douglas has been compelled
to decline many invitations to
speak because of a prearranged
itinerary which takes him on
speaking tour through every coun-
ty in the state. He is making an
extensive and intensive campaign
and according to reports from all
parts of the state through which he
has travelled and spoken, he is
gaining tremendous strength. His
fearless honesty and sincerity for
the good of Arizona is winning him
countless friends.

BOY RECEIVES
INHRY TO EYE.

Jonnie Christensen, seven-year-
old son of Mr.. and Mrs. David
Christensen received a badly in
jured eye while playing in the back
yard of his home about one o'clock
Tuesday. He was Immediately TAX
en- to a specialist in Phoenix, who
stated that a decision as to whether
the sight of the eye would be lost,
could not be given for about ten
days. Although the sight may be
impaired, it was not thought that
the little fellow would lose his eye
entirely.
The accident was caused by a
stone which had been thrown by
small Mexican boy who was pass
ing the Christensen home on West
Front street. The little fellow, ac-
companied by his mother, returned
from Phoenix Thursday and Will
await further developments in the
condition of his eye before again

KERRY CAR TAX
PLAN OPPOSED

Resolutions express
ing opposition to the automobile
tax plan as proposed by James H.
Kerby, secretary of the state, were
passed at the afternoon session of
the state tax conference in session
here Tuesday The conference
based itr action on the grounds
that it's enactment would be against
the best interests of the state. The
resolution was adopted by the as
SCISSORS, the state tax commission
and the members of the various
county boards of supervisors who
are assembled in annual confer
ence.
The resolution states that the
proposed measure, if enacted,
would have the effect of removing
from the tax rolls of the state tax
able wealth to the amount of not
less than $2O,O00,OOO.
A resolution was also passed
asking that Arizona be exempted
from the provisions of the bill
now pending in congress pertain
ing to the administration of graz
ing on the national forests and
the public domain. The bill re-
ferred to is known as the Stan
field measure. The resolution pro-
tests against the enactment of the
bill insofar as it pertains to the
use of the public domain. The
state of Wyoming is not included
in the bill and the resolution asks
that Arizona be extended a like
exemption.

HUGE CROWD
AT SNOWFLAKE
CELEBRATION

SNOWFLAKE-The pioneer cele-
bration held at Snowflake last Sat
urday was the card of attraction
for people from all parts of the
state. A crowd of people estimated
between 1900 and 1000 were said to
be in attendance.
The celebration was held at the
town in the shade of large cotton
wood trees and partly surrounded
by water, which made it one of the
most ideal places in this section for
a celebration of this kind AL
though the grounds were not in the
best of shape, it is expected that
they will be placed in first class
condition to accommodate the Gel
ebrations that will be held there at
future dates. Already this place
has been unanimously selected as
the ideal place to hold the after
noon sports for the Navajo County
Fair which will be held in October.
The entire days program went
off in tip-tOp shape with something
kept going all the time from the
start in the morning until the last
strains of music died away at the
close of the dance in the evening.
People from all parts of the state
were unanimous in their. decision
that this was the best celebration
they had attended in many years.
Promptly at 8 o'clock the parade
of floats started from the town to
the grounds. Each auxiliary or
ganization of the stake had rep
resentative float and the Sunday
School was awarded first money
for the most beautiful one in the
parade.
The barbecue at noon was pre-
pared in very tasty style and many
pronounced it the best they had
ever tasted.
Children's sports held full sway
for about one hour at the start of
the afternoon program.
The first thing after the chill
dren's sports was a matched race
between Pete Cobb, of Whiteriver
and Frank Armstrong, of Mesa, in
which the latter won by a close
margin.
There were a total of ten men
entered in the. scheduled 100-yard
dash, so two elimination races had
to be run in order to find the fast
est men Those running in the
final were: Pete Cobb, of White
rover, Frank Armstrong and Men
del Butler, of Mesa, c. Jones, OF
Winslow, Leo McLaws, of Joseph
City, and Max Ortego, of Holbrook
Frank Armstrong, of Mesa, was
winner and G. Jones, of Winslow
The Winslow mail., 1926-07-30

finished a close second. The time
made by the winner of this event
was 10 seconds flat. Prizes of $100,
and $50 were paid to the winners of
first and second places.
Battling Bobbie Hall, of this
place, was given the decision over
Knockout Bill Baird after three
rounds of lively mixing.
Results of the other events are
as follows:
Team roping: John Moore and
Willie BAHIA, of Whiteriver, first
money of $500; time 27 Is sec
onds. Willie Alchesay and John
Moore, End, $500. time 81 Is.
Calf roping: John Moore, 1st.
time 20 1-2 seconds. Wheeler BAHIA
End, time "a 1-2 seconds Prizes
$500 and $500.
Bull riding: Harry Turiley, w.
E. Stewart, Wild Fuller, Ralph
Rogers, and Arlee Smithson each
received a prize of S. for sticking
with their mounts.
Broncho riding: Harry TurIey,
first money of $4,000 and Arlee
Smithson received second.
Ladies' Horse Race: Mrs. Hy
Richards, first, and Amelia Frost,
second.
Cooperation extended by Wins
low people was very much appre-
ciated by the Snowflake committee
and people This sort of pulling
together will eventually mean a
close association that will enable
Navajo county to come forward as
one of the foremose counties in the
state.
