Lehi Howard, Pioneer
Dies At Woodruff

Lehi Howard, one of the early set
tiers and stalwart pioneers of North
ern Arizona, passed away at his home
in Woodruff Thursday evening, De-
cember following an illness of lit
tie over two months.
From the first his condition was
serious. Sciatic rheumatism and
heart trouble were the direct cause of
his death.
Lehi Howard was born under adj
verse circumstances in Salt Lake City
in 1851. He was married to Susanna
Talbot October 26, 1875.
Twelve children blessed this union,
eleven of whom survive him. Three
sons and eight daughters, all grown
and married.
In northern Utah, he with his peo-
pie helped to transform the wilder
ness. When about 25 years of age
he with his wife came to Arizona
and helped settle Joseph City Some
years later he moved his family to
Heber, following dry farming and
stock raising.
Some years later he moved his fam
lily to Tuba City where they lived
number Of years until the government
bought out the white peoples prop
erty who were living there.
The Howard and Brinkerhoff fam
lies then moved to Woodruff where
they have had permanent holdings
ever since. During the struggle there
to save the place he has been a strong
factor. His interests were divided be-
tween Woodruff and Zeniff where he
has large land holdings.-Snowflake

INCREASED GRAZING
FEES PROPOSED

An increase in grazing fees on Ari-
zona forest reserves, totaling approx
imately 9 pert cent, is proposed BY
Colonel w. G. Greeley, chief Of the
national forest service, in his rec
concentrations to Secretary Jardine,
of the United States department of
agriculture. Announcement Of this
proposed increase has been received
by the Arizona Purebred Cattle Grow
ers association, in a bulletin issued by
the secretary Of the American Ma
tional Live Stock association. The
annual convention of the national live
stock body will be held in Salt Lake
City on January "a, and the question
of grazing fees will be discussed at
that time. Members of the Arizona
live stock associations will attend the
Salt Lake City meeting.
Fourteen national forest reserves
in Arizona will feel the grazing fee
increase if the proposed program is
carried to completion. The present
rate and the proposed new rate for
cattle, per year, follows:

State Shares In
Forest Receipts

| The states share Of the national
forest receipts for the fiscal year end
ing June 30, 1926 has been apportion-
ed, from which funds Arizona will re-
ceive $40,94700.
The states share of the net forest
receipts, according to Albert Morris,
district fiscal agent, is provided un-
der the various acts Of congress.
Twenty-Five percent of the net re-
ceipts going directly to the counties
within which the forests are located,
for school and road projects, the
amount to be allotted for each pur-
pose to be determined by the state.
The 10.per cent fund, included in the
above amount, is credited to the forest
service for the construction of minor
roads and trails within the national
forests Of the state.
The amount apportioned to Arizona
this past fiscal year from the net re
ceipts is much less than in previous
years due to the waving of the graz
ing fees. The amount of forest re-
ceipts apportioned in 1924, which was
about the average, amounted to S175,-
600. The remainder of the 65 per
cent of the forest receipts goes to the
federal treasury as miscellaneous re-
ceipts.
From the 25 per cent road and
school fund, since 1906, the state of
Arizona has received $1,921 600 and
from the 10 per cent forest road fund
it has received $477,951.

and commercial bodies in general ag-
ricultural and industrial development
will be made still closer.
In recognition that the success of
the Industrial Congress is due mainly
to the support given it by the local
organizations for which it serves as
a central clearing house, the directors
voted a unanimous resolution of
thanks to the chambers of commerce
throughout the state for their whole
hearted cooperation with it, and in
structed the operating staff to return
this cooperation in every possible
way.
Extension of the field service and
national publicity service of the con-
gress also was authorized. Plans for
the annual convention were deferred
until the dates of the conventions of
member organizations usually held
in Phoenix about the same time
known, but it was decided to make
the convention more a central meet
ing-ground for the other associations,
probably in the form of gigantic

The new proposals also carry min

serve pasturage located great dis
tances from railroad loading points
and to which it is necessary to haul
water. But very little of this kind
Of pasturage is used in Arizona, how
ever, and the minimum rate is Of
small interest to state stockmen. The
proposed new fee is for grazing lands
in close proximity to shipping points
and covered by creeks and fresh wa
ter holes.
A corresponding increase in grazing
fees is proposed for flockmasters who
run their sheep on forest reserve pas
lures.
Secretary Jardine will attend the
Salt Lake City meeting of stockmen,
and every effort be made to impress
upon him the fact that great finan-
cial damage vii result to stockmen if
the proposed increased rates are plac-
ed into effect. Stock raisers in all
sections of the country are just begin

will spell disaster for the industry,
according to live stock experts who
have made survey of existing sup
plies and market conditions.

WINSLOW BANK FAILURE
UP AGAINST GRAND JURY

The failure of the Bank of Winslow
will be investigated by a Navajo
county grand jury beginning Wednes-
day, it was announced at Phoenix
Monday by Andrew T. Hammons,
state superintendent of banks.
Rumors persistent for sometime
that the affairs of the defunct Bank
of Winslow, which failed in 1924, are
to be made the target of a grand jury
investigation were rife yesterday fol-
lowing the calling of the first Navajo
county grand jury in five years.
The rumors gained rapid headway
in court house and legal circles after
it became known that many of the
witnesses subpoenaed to appear be-
fore the inquisitorial body when it
convenes in Holbrook Wednes lay are
people who have been identified in
one way or another with the banks
failure.
Witnesses from all parts of the
state as well as several now residing
in New Mexico have been summoned.
County Prosecutor P. A. Sawyer re-
fused to either deny or affirm the
rumors.
It was also reported unofficially
that the state attorney generals of
flee is to take hand in the inquiry,
and that a representative will appear
before the grand jury.
The order calls the grand jury into
session at 9 a. m. Wednesday at Hol-
brook and all witnesses summoned
have been ordered to appear at that
time.
Efforts to connect the witnesses
summoned with other cases were 70
no avail and it is considered that
but a new move in the bank
case can account for their presence
at this Winslow Mail.

A. S. MILLS SELLS HIS
PHOENIX NEWSPAPER


A. S. Mills, pioneer newspaper pub
Usher Of Phoenix, announces the sale
of his weekly newspaper, the Messen-
ger, to Mrs. Angie Hammer, her two
sons, William B. Hammer and Marvin
Hammer and Mrs. A. NJ Tweed. The
weekly changed hands at a consider
alton Of $4,000, Mr.. Mills said.
Mr.. Mills came to Phoenix in 1891
as city editor Of one of the local dali
les. In 1895 he began publishing the
Saturday Review, weekly he organ
ized Later he traded the weekly for
an interest in another local publica-
ton. He then founded the Arizona
Democrat which later sold to Senator
Mulford Winsor in 1902 Mr. Mills
then retired from the newspaper
game to enter the mining field but
several years later he had to respond
to the lure of the press and returned
to his first profession by purchasing
the Spanish printed weekly Ell Menso
which translated in English is The
Messenger which name Mills at once
gave the paper. This was in 1916
and Mills has been publishing the
Messenger every week since that
time.
All four of the NV owners of the
Messenger have been employed by
Mr.. Mills at the Messenger plant for
the past several months to acquaint
themselves with the business of the
Phoenix weekly before taking it over.

weekly at Wickenburg and at Casa
Grande. Her sons are linotype oper-
ators. Mrs. Tweed has had consider
able experience in the business end Of

BEN -HUR" BIG DRAMA
OF SIMPLE EMOTIONS

The biggest things are the simplest.
Not complexity OF emotion, but it's
depth and truth mark real greatness.
In the instance Of -Hur,p love
and revenge are the supreme motives
Revenge-to overthrow the Roman
who destroyed the house of Hur; Love
an inconsolable passion that made
him search the wide world over to
find his lost mother and sister, and
love, the Towering Of youths emo
tions to his true mate, Esther; these
are the keys to Ben-Hur's heart, and
these are the elements of appeal that
make his story SO engrossing. This
marvlous story has now been pictur-
lied for the first time from the world
famous novel and stage play, and will
be presented at the Orpheum on
Thursday, December %. The great
motives of the picture find their cli-
max in the Antioch chariot race, when
Ben-Hur overthrows his enemy, Mes
sala, and in the wondrous ending
where Esther finds the lost ones and
brings them to the Saviour to be
healed.

MORE TRUTH THAN GRAMMAR

of hollering for more?"

It's true we've got business on the boom, but
how do you suppose we got it by sitting
around looking pretty? Not by long shot!
We've been fishing all right, but fishing for
business, that's what! And that's how we
got it; by hollering for it like children cry
for whatever it is. We've got it and we're
going to keep it by hollering for more Just
