Today Is Turkey Day

lOOuy Is IuThey Dhy
Following the annual custom for
the past several years arrangements
are made by the large brokers in
live and dressed poultry to be on
hand on a specified date to handle
the poultry which finds its way into
this market. Dressed turkeys in
huge quantities began to arrive ear
ly on the market this morning. The
farmers always spend a day or two
before the turkey day to kill and
dress their poultry for the market,
they then bring it to town IN every
conceivable conveyance from an au-
tomobile truck to a farm wagon.
According to some of the growers of
turkeys in this section, the season
was very favorable for the industry
and many of the farmers have hocks
that will number near to hundred.
The birds are of an exceptionally
high quality and the bidding at
times becomes spirited when some
buyer desires a particular lot. S. J.
Minner. William Faulkner, Kirby &
Graham, all of Frederica; Edison
Bros, Philadelphia, and several
others are among those who buy
poultry in this section.

will be one of the outstanding fea-

Coming Day of the Northern Ari-
zona Teachers college with gradual
ing classes dating back to 1910, TAX
ing part, is the announcement made
today by Dean Bellwood.
Today the campus at the Flag
staff college is taking on a strange
atmosphere; it's male population
wearing many forms of facial ap-
pendages, vulgarly termed "whis-
kers" college City" as the cam
pus is known among the school peo-
pie throughout the state, is a "be-
whiskered CITY," and for a reason.
College men not supporting an hon
est growth of hairs upon the face
have the alternative of having them
tattooed on, kangarooed, fined, and
likewise scorned and held up to
ridicule.
Kangaroo Court has set at Tay-
lor Hall, and Judge Turk" Way
rules with an iron hand. Various
and sundry charges are brought
against miscreants in the hours Of
the night, and the penalties impos-
ed in no mean or impartial manner.
There are no lawsuits honor,
Judge Way, is THE law, and kan
garoo court in this college city is
the kangaroo court of the old days

possible to fine a sheik for going
over to any of the women's dor

over. Right is Wrong, and Wrong
is Right "Use your own judg-
ment," is the advice, "and Well
prove you wrong and also fine you
for it," is the slogan laid down by

For the Teachers College alumni

APPLICATION FOR RAISE IN
W|NS[OW PHONE RATES
IS DENIED BY COMMISSION
Due to Excellent Opposition On Part Of G. W. Nelson
7Aand Others, Proposal of Mountain States Tele-
phone & Telegraph Company to Raise Rates
In City of Winslow Is Defeated
HEARING HEL D HERE EARLY in THE YEAR

Notification that the application
OF the Mountain States Telephone
& Telegraph company to raise ma
terlally the telephone rates in
WinsloW, had been denied by the
Arizona Corporation Commission,
was received in Winslow Tuesday
from Phoenix, through the office Of
the Corporation Commission.
pThe decision which has been
awaited by Winslow telephone
users, with considerable interest
during the past few months, means
that it is complete victory for the
people, and to G. w. Nelson, who
led the opposition to the applica-
ton at the hearing held here, goes
the majority Of the credit for the
succe full resistance offered
against the proposed change.
That it was Mr.. Nelson's line OF
opposition that resulted in the adj
verse decision to the company, was
the word received here in a let
ter from one of the commissioners,
and although he gave others ap-
pearing against the proposed raise
credit, he stated that credit was
due in the main to Nelson, who OD-

MAIL TO RECEIVE
GENERALIZATION
RETURNS BY WIRE

AS in the case of the primary
election, when the Mail received
returns from the state by direct
wire, the Mail office will again be
the mecca of those interested in
election results Tuesday night. Re-
turns from over the state, showing
results of the general election, will
be received here by direct wire
from the Associated Press in Phoe-
nix
Also repeating past performance,
the American Legion will announce
returns at their dance Tuesday
night at Arcadia Hall, and those
who wish to know the results but
need music and shuffling feet to
keep them awake will be furnish
ed according to their needs.
Since general elections are usu-
ally more interesting even than the
heat of the primary conflicts, it is
expected that many will take ad-
vantage of the two services offered,
and plans are being made for the
reception of large crowds at both
places.
On Wednesday morning the Mail
will again issue special election
extra, as was the case after the
primaries, showing the standing of
the candidates.

Commission Takes
Train Wreck Case
Under Amusement

The principal question brought
up at the hearing conducted in Will
liams on Tuesday and Wednesday
by Amos A. Belts, member of the
Arizona Corporation Commission, to
investigate the cause 70 a train
wrecL on the Santa Fe railway in
Williams in August, which resulted
in one death and serious scalding
of an engineer, was whether main
line trains had superior right-of
way over the inferior trains in the
Williams yards, according to Mr.
Belts upon his return to Phoenix
this week
The wreck under investigation
occurred when the engine of Train
No. 9 sideswiped a switch engine
in the Williams yards H. G. Cham
bliss, fireman of the switch engine,
was killed and j. D. Wiley, engineer
on the passenger train, was badly
scalded by steam.
The hearing lasted two days, one
day at Williams and one day at
Winslow. The testimony of the
railroad employees conflicted on the
question of clearances in the yards
at Williams, some of the witnesses
claiming the fast trains had clear
ance in the yards while others tes-
titled that there was no clearance
for any particular class of trains
in the Williams yards.
The case was taken under ad-
visement by the Commission.
The Winslow mail., 1926-10-29

posed the raise, as an economic
question.

20 miles, and will eliminate prac-
tically all bad stretches of road.
including the notorious "dug-way.
Speaking Of this proposed devel-
opment, G. G. Bolton. acting sup
erintendent of the park said, TAI
though not in the Grand Canyon
national park, officials Of the III. S.
department. of the interior, OF
which the National Park Service is
a bureau, are vitally interested in
this bridge. The park service is
the only government agency that
is officially promoting tourist trav-
ell in the United States, and
bridge at Lees Ferry will have
far reaching effect on motor travel
in the west 1t will be the only
major north and south highway for
250 miles in either direction, and
will be across a country even more
remotely removed from a railroad.
1t will directly connect such out
standing scenic features as the
Grand Canyon, Zion and yellow
stone National Parks as we'll as
other features such as the Painted
Desert of Arizona, Canyon of the
Little Colorado and some Of the
unique Sights Of Southern Utah. AL
though the increased tourist move
ment resulting from this develop
ment will be of benefit to the en-
tire west, it is impossible to esti-
mate the benefits to be derived by
the states Of Arizona and Utah ."
Continuing his statement, Mr..
Bolton said, HThe proposed bridge
will be a cooperative arrangement
between the federal government
and the state Of Arizona. 1t is un-
derstood that work will commence
as soon as the state votes its half
of the $200.000 which is the esti-
mated cost of the work. There is
every Indication that this Will be
done during the next session OF The
