 rendered by SeWardites Recently we had occasion to need imme- diate funds in connection with the Pacific Yukon Alaska High way plans, and the quick res ponse from Seward was remarka- ble and deserving of worthy com ment. The fact that Seward is not even on the proposed route of the highway shows, by yol1r act, that you are truly interested in the Territory as . whole, and not simply, locally"
 Regarding the developments of the great Highway plans, I am pleased to say that things are in- deed coming along nicely, and I feel sure that all of HIS will see it in use long before our lives are terminated. The only spark of op- position remaining is in British Columbia. Tho they are enthus- siastic about it, they are looking forward to their transcontinental highway. I believe this opposition will wane

The second would follow the Yukon Valley to Dawson, while the third in choice would connect with our Steese Highway at Circle City. No matter which route is selected it will bring a great many people into Alaska and make us really feel like we are a part of North America Some day I would expect to see a railroad over the same route.

JOE HAS BLACK
WIDOW SPECIMENS

Joe Blose dropped around Thurs
day to the Coolidge Examiner Of
flee accompanied by a Black Wi
dow. This particular black widow
was jet black spider, having a
couple of white cross bars back of
he head. There was a red strip on
the spiders abdomen. Joe had his
widow bottled up and that's the
safest way to have it, for the bite
of one Of these spiders is more
deadly than rattlesnake. Joe says
ne has caught several of these
spiders recently
The following taken from an ex-
change tells more about this tiny
spider:
Although all spiders are to be
avorded there is one specie that is
especially to be stunned, according
to L. V. Guthrie, caretaker of the
Arizona Temple. Guthrie yesterday
revealed that he has killed approx
imately $50 "black widow" spiders
during the past few days.
The black widow spider is said to
be more deadly than the rattle
snake, is sting having proved fatal
to number of people Just few
days ago, Guthrie recalled a Tucson
man fell prey to one of these tiny
insects
Observation Of the spider al the
power plant of the Arizona Temple
where a great number have been
found, disclosed that the insect can
easily be dis inguished from it's less
dangerous brothers. The black
widow is brown until it reaches ma
turity. In its youth it is harmless
but when it begins to spin its web
and reproduce, q significant red
strip developes on it's abdomen. On
the larger ones a white streak is
set just behind the head.-Ex.

The Christmas Candle
Spelled Welcome Home

FOLLOWING an old family Gus
L tom, Katherine Blair placed a
lighted candle in the window. Orig
inally serving to guide lost trav-
elers on Christmas eve, John Blair
knew it had been placed there the
last three years with Kenneth in
mind-the son who was too busy
to come home for Christmas.
The candies bright light had
brought cheer to many, so again
Katherine placed one in the win
dow. Perhaps this year it would
be Kenneth it would guide home.
A whir of a motor overhead
the night mail was arriving. There
might be a letter from Kenneth.
A car stopped before the house
as John Blair started for the post
office. A man rushed up the steps
and through the open door shout
ing Merry Christmas, Dad and
Mother" Between embraces and
handshakes he explained: Found
out late could come home, so l
flew down with the mail" The
next words filled Katherine's heart
with joy-"The old candle sure
did spell welcome home to me"
How glad she was the candle was
in the accustomed place.-Blanche

By vote of virtually two TO
one, Arizona voters on November
4 rejected the proposed constitu-
tional amendment which would
have granted exemption from tax
alton to motor vehicles. With un-
official but virtually complete re-
turns available from all counties
in the state except Mohave and
Yuma. the vote on this measure
stood yes, 1855, no. 80, 214. In
dications are that the final official
canvass will show an even greater
majority against this proposal.
The scheme to exempt automo-
biles from taxation has now been
rejected by overwhelming majori-
lies for three successive times, as
substantially the same proposal
was submitted to the vo,ers in 1926
and again in 1928, and each time
defeated. The measure in each in
stance was sponsored by automobile
dealers, who naturally have reaped
| the greatest benefit from its adop-
ton, as they would have been re-
lieve of paying taxes on their entire
stock in trade, both on new and
used cars.
The proposed amendment would
if adop ed, have had the effect of
applying to one special class of
property the principle that only the
use of properly is to be taxed, while
leaving all other classes of pro
perty 10 make up the loss in re-
venue thereby occasioned. Accord,
ing to proponents of the scheme,
automobiles would pay taxes only
through the gasoline tax, and all ad
valorem property taxes on this
class of property would be abolish
ed. On the same principle, as was
pointed out by this magazine dur.
ing the campaign against this pro-
pcsal, a vacant lot or an unoccu.
led house would also be entitled
to go tax free.
