At least certain persons in Mayaguez

Deputy Collector of Customs SiegmuDd

For some time past, complaints in re-
gard to the violation Of the Volstead law
in Mayaguez have been coming in to
the San Juan Office and it was decided
by collector Moore to do a little unex-
pected house cleaning
Leaving this city at midnight the Gus
toms sleuths arrived at Mayaguez in the
cool gray dawn and proceeded to differ
ent small restaurants where they order

purchase a little Stimulant to go with
it? They could and did, and then the
raid commenced in earnest.
In three establishments struggled liQ-

Arrests followed.
Telephones jingIed merriIy as news
of the affair was spread among local

NO WATER BY RAIL

The municipal authorities of San Juan
will not at the present attempt to bring
water to this city by rail. 1t is believed
by them that the need is not so great as
to warrant this method of increasing the
water supply notwithstanding the fact
that several portions of the city are
without any water supply for sanitary or
or other uses. The waterless area is
rapidly extending. the district of La
Princessa being the latest addition. On
Sunday and Monday and up to Z o'clock
Tuesday morning there was no water
turned on in this district which has, ow-
ing to its low level, had water at inter.
walls previously.
The situation grows worse, Monday
night being sIeepless fer the majority of
the inhabitants of La Marina owing to
the horrible stenchps arising along tie
harbor front.
Owners of private wells are sharing
their scanty SUPPLY of water with others
less fortunate and an epidemic Of serious
proportions is prophesied for San Juan.

DIVISION ENGINEER TELLS
WHY HE'S FOR ]. ]. cox

Ash Fork. Ariz., Aug. %, 1926.
Editor Coconino Sun.
Flagstaff, Ariz.
Dear Sir:
Since Governor Hunt has seen fit
to advertise me along with some 9TH
ers for disloyalty, will leave it to
the reader to Judge between US.
Governor Hunt announced through
the press that he was not a candi-
date. I then espoused the cause of
Senator Cox, believing that he repre-
sents true democracy and is fighting
for the people. He is the only candi-
date offering constructive advice. He
was for Arizona in reference to the
Colorado river in 1923, has never
changed, and has defended her rights
in the U. S. court. He stands for
equal taxation, efficiency, and econ
omy in state government and protec-
tion of bank deposits for the small
business man and worker.
When Governor Hunt again changed
his mind for a third time and became
a candidate did not feel called upon
to change mine and am still Cox
supporter. If this be disloyalty then
/ am disloyal.
Yours very truly,
B. M. ATWOOD.

BOSTON WOOL MARKET

More wool has been moved during
the past week than for long time.
Large mill buyers have been active
in the market, and Summer street re-
ports their takings to have run into
millions of pounds. The bulk of the
trading has been in domestic sorts,
Texas and territory woods having
been particularly active. Other sorts
have also been in demand, and there
has also been fairly good call for
Australian merinos in bond. While
the volume of wool sold has been
large, the situation as regards pri-
ces is still far from satisfactory. Eff
forts to lift values to higher level
have met with stiff resistance from
manufacturers, who claim that they
are unable to pay more and run their
mills profitably. Few sales are noted
at the advanced quotations, yet it is
believed that sellers have stiffened
their attitude quite notably, and that
there has been less shading of prices
in order to make sales than for long
time. Wool men are looking forward
to the opening of the Sydney market
next week as likely to give cue to
the possible course of prices at the
coming Australian auctions. Bradford
continues to report a better demand
for tops and yarns, and the situation
abroad is distinctly better. Wool men
hesitate to advance wool prices
too quickly, fearing that such action
may have bad effect upon the goods
market, where things are just begin
ming to show favorable trend.

Thomas Moran, Famous Painterof
Grand Canyon Dies Santa Barbara

At the age of ninety, Thomas Nor
an, N. A., passed away on August
25th in his Santa Barbara home. His
daughter, Ruth B. Moran. who was at
his bedside during several months Of
illness, is his sole survivor.
He was the most distinguished, and
the last to survive of four artists
bearing the name Moran, a group
which has made great contribution
to American art.
Thomas Moran, son of weaver of
that name, was born in Bolton, Lam
cashire, England in 1887. The family
came to Maryland shortly afterward
to Philadelphia. Here, with his two
brothers, Edward and Peter, he COM
menced his art studies, and was also
apprenticed to a wood engraver for
two years.
His skill with the brush rapidly dis
closing itself, Moran gave up wood
engraving as profession, though his
skill at engraving landscapes directly
on wood stood him in good stead later
on, his own interpretations of his
paintings finding their way into print
before the era Of mechanical reproduc-
tion.
A great admirer Of the work of
Turner, he spent some years in Eng
land studying the paintings of that
master, whose influence may be felt
in Moran's own work.
From 1867 to 1871 he painted in
France and Italy, securing the mate
rial for the Venetian series which
forms such an important and numer-
Gus group Of his paintings.
In 1871 and 1878 Moran journeyed
to the Yellowstone and the Colorado
country with expeditions for the Unit
ed States Geological survey. These
expeditions turned his interest to the
grandeurs of the west, which he con-
tinued to paint until short time
before his death. Calm and untiring,
with an adequate technique and a
heart readily moved by the dramatic
qualities of desert and mountain land
scape, his paintings, of the west,
though not as rule large in size,
The Coconino sun., 1926-09-03

have vastness and majesty seldom
equaled. His method of painting, with
much glazing of pure color over
white, gives his canvases remarkable
luminosity.
Some years ago he gave up his stu
dio in Easthampton. l.. l., to live in
Santa Barbara. A photograph taken
in 1924 royals q fine head, full of
calmness and sweetness and showing
many signs of the firmness which his
slow and exacting method of painting
required
An exceedingly fine painting by
Moran, "Green River Buttes, Wyo-
ming" is now on exhibition at the
Biltmore salon. This is an excellent
example of his ability to catch the
tremendous drama of the desert. Red
and white buttes rise like great pill
lars out of the sand hills. Through
the sand is seen the delicately painted
strata of rock, perfect in detail but
subdued to suit the needs of compost
ton. In the sky, dark thunder clouds
enhance the brilliance of vagrant sun
light, and deep-blue mountains are
seen at great distance. A tiny file
of mounted Indians gives scale to the
landscape, which is painted in reds,
silver and blue.
The graceful landscape reproduced
here may be seen at the Stendahl
Galleries. The trees are feathery, the
peaceful land rich with verdure, the
whole bathed in a lovely diffused
light.
Moran's paintings are to be found
in many museums and private collec-
tions throughout the United States.
In the national capitol at Washing
ton are two large paintings commits
stoned by congress. "The Grand Can
yon of the Yellowstone" and the
"Grand Canyon of the Colorado"
Such man lives quietly, works un-
interruptedly and passes with little
publicity. His works remain, however,
to mark the closing of an art period
in which the name of Thomas Moran
will only loom larger with the pas
sage of time.

The LamsOn Business College
Summer School at Flagstaff

4 HE AdIktSUH DuSAuCSS OUASSC
Summer School at Flagstaff
Closed the first twelve-week term
last Friday. There were students in
attendance from Prescott, Phoenix,
Chandler, Miami, Globe, Pinedale,
Springerville, Clovis, N. M. and FL
Paso, Texas. Every student enrolled
made remarkably rapid progress. Sew
eral students completed the full book
keeping course, which takes two years
in High School or Normal School.
They are now ready for training in
actual office work. All but one of the
students in the shorthand course COM
pleted the Manual, which takes one
year in a High School or Normal.
Several students thoroughly reviewed
the Manual and completed the ad-
vanced dictation work.
It has not been decided where to
hold the Summer Business College
next year. The lease on the building
occupied the past summer has been
cancelled. Regret has been expressed
that larger number of the young peo-
pie of Northern Arizona did not take
advantage of the Summer Business
College to prepare themselves for of
flee work. especially High School
graduates and graduates of the
Teachers College who failed to find
employment as teachers, as there is a
big demand by Arizona business men
for those young people who have fol-
lowed it with the Lamson Business
ColleIe Training on account of their
general information and solid founda-
tion for business training.
More than sixty students have been
enrolled during the past three months
at the Summer School of the Lamson
Business College of Phoenix, but, dur
ing the same time there were more
than one hundred calls in the College
Office for stenographers, bookkeep-
ers and clerks.
It is estimated that there will be
at least 200 calls for office help dur
ing the fall. and it was hoped that the
Flagstaff School would be able to
help out.
The regular Fall Term Of the thir-
ty-efghth year will open Monday,
September 13. Four courses are Of
fered: Business, Stenographic, Secre-
tarial, and Full Commercial Gradu-
ates of any of these courses are sure
of position as the demand for those
who have completed the Lamson
Business College Training far exceeds
the supply.
For full information write to the
Lamson Business College, 313 N. Gen.

on Col. E. M. Lamson, President at
I01 S. Sitgreaves Street, today or
