DOCTOR MARVIN'S SECRET

The Board Of Regents and the President of
the University are open to severe censure and an
the people are alrady passing that censure with
out stint Anyone who thinks he can hold a Sc
cret trial on open charges against public ser,
want, and then suppress the findings in that tri'
for matter of days, weeks, months or even
hours and not be open to censure, simply fails
to grasp the spirit Of democracy in these days OF
demon demos.
It is no longer question Of what Cloyd Heck
Marvin did or failed to do during the school year;
It is now question of why his trial should be
hedged about with whispering suppression.
No innocent man who understands the work
ing of the campus mind would be willing to have
his thousand students disperse to the ends OF the
state before the cloud Of suspicion was dispelled
Any man who does so is, per Sc, unfit to rule the
state campus Not because he may not have a
reason but because thatreason can only be a per
sonal one and cannot rebound to the honor of the
university.

work has been going steadily forward
under it's present management. The
river has been turned aside and a
force of more than a dozen men will
soon disclose the entire layout COM
plete to bedrock.
From the diversion dam, ninety feet
high, water can be taken either to
the original tract reserved for Mr..
Whitman or to the Nadaburg prop
critics. In the latter case, the men
being on the land now, the project
can be carried to final success that
few projects can hope for. All that
remains to be done is to have the
Nadaburg land holders sign up under
the contract proposed by Mr.. Whit
mann. This contract will give them
water for one fourth of their holdings
in perpetuity for which their sole
payment will be the immediate trans
fer of the other three-fourths of their
land to the owners of the Walnut
Grove project.
With the railroad and the highway
already in, nothing can keep NADIA
burg from being the richest small
country town in the world

People vary more in their ideas Of what is

Mutt & Jeff have big following, Jiggs is q

must be funny.

THE WHOLE TOWN READY
FOR INDEPENDENCE DAY
AND A QUIET FOURTH

This old town has seen some OF its
best celebrations on former Fourth's.
Not many old timers have forgotten
the sports and feeds and dances of
the days that are gone.
This year viii be a quiet one.
There will be plenty of enthusiasm,
apparently, but it is going to be a dig
nified, sane and safe celebration. In
the first place it comes on Sunday.
In the second place, the boys who
used to pull the celebrations have all
grown old during the past year or
so. The towns the same but the
days different.
The Big Celebrations
Many are planning to go to Pres
colt; some to Flagstaff; and one is
reputed to be going to Phoenix. The
rest of the town will get together ac-
cording to plans already announced
and a general program will be car
ried out.

WALNUT GROVE DAM
TO |RR|GATE 10000 ACRES
WILL MAKE NADABURG
BY John Radnor

When the Walnut Grove Dam went
out, in February, 1890, killing sixty
people and completely obi iteratipg
the life work of Henry Van Buren,
many thought it would mark the end
of the pro oject.. But in this they reck-
oned without taking into account the
persistence in the blood of that good
old dutch stock, and today the little
town of Nadaburg is situated in the
heart of twenty-thousand acre tract
that will become the very choicest
body of horticultural land in the state
of Arizona when married to the wa
ter from the new Walnut Grove dam.
History of Van Buren's Rights
The first dam under Henry Van
Buren's filings stored water for irri-
cation as early as 1884. From the
time of the catastrophe of 1890 until
1910, little was heard of the project;
but in 1909 surveys were begun look
ing to the setting aside of $4,000
acres near Hot Springs Junction, to
be reserved for Joseph Whitman
under the Carey Act, these surveys
being made by E. c. DIETRICH for the
state and by Luther Wagner for the
project promoters, final approval be-
ing gained several years later.
During the progress of these pre-
liminaries, Henry Van Buren, died.
His estate complied with every de-
tail of the law, and old timers will
recall that Eleanor Van Buren, his
daughter, spent much of her time
! here in the early days with Nellie
Hanlon, who later became Mrs. Alex
Brodie, as Miss Van Buren became
Mrs. Joseph Whitman It was af-
/ ter the death of Mrs. Whitman that
! the sole rights came into the hands
of Joseph Whitman, and it will be
seen that they have come down direct
from the earliest filings in the early
eighties
The Projected Dam
The new dam is to be 163 feet high
and CTS feet long at the crest, an en-
! tirely modern piece Of engineering
construction 1t was designed to
impound about $4,000 acre feet of wa
ter from the floods of the Hassay-
ampa, the reservoir covering approx
/ imately 14O0 acres.
The location of the dam is about
+ eighteen miles above WickenbUrg,
with a second dam in the box canyon
several miles further down the
stream Between the two dams,
ample provision is made for the de
velopment of power The project is
/ entirely a private concern and is one
of the best financed, the most com
pletely worked out in engineering de-
tails, and the most promising for
those coming under its provisions of
all the projects of the southwest.

years of record taking on the flow of
the Hassayampa and in 1916 Ad Far
