CAMERON OPPOSES LEES
FERRY BRIDGE FUND

The dispute as to whether the Ma
vaio Indians in Arizona and New
Mexico are to pay $106,600 for the
construction Of bridges in these states
resulted in the $423, ,000,000 deficiency
bill going back to conference.
The house inserted the item and
the senate struck it out. Senators
Cameron ard Bratton led the fight
against senate approval of the spend
| ing of practically all of the Navajo
| tribal funds now in the federal treas
uly on bridges which they said would
| benefit the Indians little, if any at all.
One of the proposed bridges was
to be constructed across the Colorado
river near Lees Ferry, Ariz., while
the other is some distance from the
1 Navajo reservation in New Mexico.
/ The Colorado bridge would be link
in great highway system through
Arizona and Utah.
! Senator Cameron declared the pro-
posal to make the Indians pay half of
| the construction costs was an outrage.
To suggest that the senate agree to
the items in the deficiency bill now,
in order that the bill could get
through, and then repeal them later,
Senator Cameron said everyone knew
how difficult that procedure would be.
Senator Bratton said nothing was
settled until it was settled right and
that the senate should not agree to
the house amendments. He said the
Indians had voted unanimously against
the appropriation of their tribal funds
and argued that congress had no right
to spend them ever that protest.
/ Finally, Senator Ashurst offered a
bill authorizing the secretary of the
interior to furnish 100000 for con
/ struction of the Colorado river bridge
the state of Arizona then being re-
quired to furnish like amount.

CLIFTON -SPRINGERVILLE
ROAD WITH BARBECUE

for all going to Hanigan's Meadows

| ments and entertainment. The CO
operation of the forest service assures
success to the celebration, according
! to Mayor Peter Riley of Clifton, chair
man of the celebration committee.

cut forests in the United States, runs
for about so miles through big trees
at high altitude, affording good camp

DRAMA LOVERS HAVE
BIG TREAT in STORE

Acting of high quality viii be seen
in Flagstaff next Wednesday and
Thursday nights, when the Golfer
Miller players will be at Ashurst
auditorium.
Perhaps this is the highest class
theatrical company ever billed here.
They have been before the public for
many years, always in the better
class dramatic work, and the press
notices they have received from all
over the United States are evidence
Of their high character as players.
On Wednesday night the play will
be Sheridan's "The Rivals" in seven
scenes. We all remember reading
this comedy and the quaint sayings
of Mrs. Malaprop. The duel, the last
scene, even found its way into some OF
the best school readers.
The next night the play will be a
comedy, "The Imaginary Invalid" by
Moliere. In this adoption from the
French, Moliere laughed at the hum
buggery in the medical practice of his
day and land.
There are eight players in the
company, which is directed by Mar
tha Miller and Jess Golfer. The cos
tunes all are designed by Miss Mil
Ter.
Flagstaff Woman's club is hand
ling the sale of the tickets, which for
adults are 81 night, or ticket may
be bought for $1.50 giving admission
both nights.

JUST A DIRTY TRICK TO
MAKE WORKMEN WORK?

Contrary to reports that when the
old Montezuma hotel at Nogales was
erected back in the SOS, poker chips,
liquor, ETC., were placed in the corner
stone, none of the supposedly buried"
articles we're found when the corner
stone was torn down last week, it was
stated Friday by Hal Kerr, one of the
contractors.
Considerable interest was manifest
in regard TO what might be found in
the cornerstone and there was great
disappointment when the reported two
quarts of 40-year-old "licker" failed
to show up.

The pie supper at the school house
was rained out Thanksgiving night.
1t is funny, though pitiful, what
ideas some people get, in this day of
enlightenment, with the public press
and other ways of information. What
we have reference to is the poor be-
nighted Ingram writer, who thinks our
County Judge just ever so graciOusly
donated a cool thousand dollars for
a friend of his who happened to be
our County Agent. If this good In
gram correspondent, is a regular read
er of our splendid Star Herald, he also
noticed that the Quorum Court at it's
last meeting, voted 81 to 10 to do
nate this thousand dollars and put 1t
in some mans pocket" Our County
Judge could do no such thing unless
the majority of Quorum Court said so,
and what is still more interesting, on
that same day, 81 more Quorum Courts
in the State Of Arkansas voted to do
the very same thing, and 46 of them
went us one better by 'donating'' some
for a home demonstration agent also.
Get Yourself informed, brother, md
you will not give our County Judge
one half the credit you are now Civ
ing him.
