Golfer SPEAKS TO
LAND HOLDERS ON
WATER RIGHTS

CThese projects including
some thirty others and water
and horsepower throughout
Arizona, have been filed on,
commencing in 1922, for the
people of Arizona, by Fred
L. Golfer, who has since then
taken lead, giving his entire
time and fortune to keep UP
and establish these water
rights.)
The follwing is a summary
of a speech made March 13,
to land holders and home
steaders in the Palo Verde
district by Fred T. Golfer:
Arizona has the greatest
future of any State, in the
Nation, with her water rights
established, to be perpetual
ed for the development of
her many millions of acres
of fertile lands and potential
horsepower.
Without established water
rights Arizona or any semi
arid state woud have no fu-
ture. The only value any
property or business has, is
its future.
In proportion to the larger
extent of agricultural land
in state or country, de-
pends the extent of it's grow
tn, wealth, prosperity and
civilization.
Arizona has within her
boundaries all of the Grand
Canyon, the worlds scenic
wonder, ninety-two per cent
of the power and forty-two
per cent of the land drainage
area of the entire Colorado
River, which is Arizona's
ONLY source of water sup
ply.
The Glen-Bridge-V e r d e
Highline project in the great
est and most economical pro-
ject to be developed, in the
United States, and is entirely
within Arizona.
Over four million acres un-
der said projects are now
patented and homesteaded.
Thousands of families are
now living on these lands.
Irrigation and power dis
tricts are being organized.
Schools, homes, American
Legion posts, community
centers, stores and ranches

BOY SCOUTS HAVE
PLEASANT OUTING

According to scoutmasters,
j. f. Eisenhart and Harry
Culbert, the trip made over
the week end tops the list of
all the good times the local
organization has had. The
troop was also accompanied
by Geo. w. Ware Coolidge
School Tructee and M. L.
Talla of Electric Dis
trict No. 2 west of Coolidge.
One car and the A. J. Chris
tiansen truck generously con-
tributed for the trip, were
sufficient to transport all
from Coolidge to Stewart
Mountain Dam about 80
miles northeast of Mesa
where camp was pitched for
Saturday night. The Scouts
in pairs prepared their own
meals over the camp fire and
each with his own bed roll
took his nights sleep in the
open. The fun of fishing
was all that was realized
from that sport. An atten-
dant at the dam showed the
party through the power
house.
Two of the boys wandered
from the party and caused
the scoutmasters some ankle
ty. They were Jay Edwards
an dClarence MoXley. Upon
their return, after a some
what lengthy search for
them, they were required to
"pass through the spats."
They are reported to have
taken the passing rather at
their leisure until scout
master ElSenhart administer
ed his spat with his belt in
stead of his hands, when the
two shot through so fast that
they missed the remaining
spats intended for them.
The scouts making up
the party included: Paul
Ware, Marvin Fitzpatrick,
Mark and Roscoe Chitwood,
Jay Edwards, Clarence Mox-
ley, Robert Layman, George
Lane, Earl Lane, Worth Ben
son, Howard Akey, Almon
Henson, Ben Johnson. Martin

MAGMA COPPER CO.
WIN TAX REFUND
SUITS OF $247,939.66

The case of Magma Cop
per company VS.. State of Ari-
zna and Pinal county for a
refund of excessive taxes col
lected for the year 1881, was
heard by Judge E. L. Green
in the Superior Court Mon
day, at the conclusion of
which an order was entered
directing a refund of taxes
in the sum of 138,391.11
collected on the company's
producing mines.
The valuation of the Mag
ma properties was fixed at
$6,500,000 by the court. The
state tax commission had
placed a valuation of $13,-
174,598 on the producing
mines but engineers employ
ed to assist in defense of the
suit, placed lower valuation
on the mines than the tax
commission.
The valuation set by the
court was almost twice that
claimed by the company
which sought to obtain an
assessment valuation of S3,-
100000.
Through examination of
mining engineers for the
state Assistant Attorney Gen
eral Charles L. Strouss
brought out the states con-
tention the properties are
worth S6,537,000, or only
$4,000 more than the fig
ure set by the court.
A final hearing in the mat
ter of excess taxes collected
for 1880 was held March l,
at which time an order was
made directing the refund of
$109,620.55 to the company,
making a total refund for 49,
80 and 1881 taxes of $247,-
1886. The refund plus 6
per cent interest granted by
the court will probably
amount to more than S27,-
100000 before payment has
finally been made.
In view of the nearness of
the courts findings to the
valuation claimed by the
state, Strouss said appeal
from the Judgment was not
contemplated. = Arizona

c. D. O.P.LEADERS
To RAP FOES
FARM PLAN

The farm relief policy an
nounced by Gov. Franklin D.
Roosevelt at, Topeka will be at
tackled by Republican campaign
orators West and East.
Vice President Charles Curtis,
who will open the Republican
campaign at FogelSville, Pa, Sat
urday, is expected to answer the
charges of Roosevelt against the
Republican Administration and to
attack his farm policy.
Plan Called Vague
The Vice President has been
asked to campaign for two days
in West Virginia, in addition to
his Kentucky and Tennessee tour.
He then will go into the farm
belt of the Middle West.
The Republican view was that
Governor Roosevelt has exposed
himself to a terrific lombard
men both in the East and the
West.
The charge Of vagueneSS, which
was made by Senator Dickinson
(R0 of Iowa was echoed in other
Republican discussions of the To
peka speech.
Hit as Radical
In the East the speech will be
attacked as a radical farm pro-
gram which has been rejected by
both Republicans and Democrats
Of that section in Congress.
The New York governor. who
announced that he would consult
farm leaders. may elaborate on
his speech on his return to the
farm belt. Certainly the Repub-
licans will demand that he state
his attitude on the equalization
fee, export debenture. and domes-
tic allotment plans.

COSELNAN FUR CO. SEATTLE WILL SERVE
 ALASKAN SHIPPERS

With the recent announcement by c. B. Coselman, president of c. B. Coselman, Inc, fur skin mer- chants, at 216 Maritime Building, 915 Western avenue, Seattle, of a fur auction sale, new era opens to Alaskans interested in obtain ing the highest prices for their fur catch.
 MT. Coselman has been a resident of Seattle for 25 years, consider able portion of this time being de- voted to the fur business. The com- pany of c. B. Coselman, Inc, has been engaged in the handling of raw, dressed and dyed fur skins, and has a marketing organization thru out country. MT. Cosel- man states probably 50 per cent of his business has been in the ex- portation of furS to foreign coun- tries. The making available of these facilities to fur consibnments of Alaska shippers should be of su- preme interest. Monthly fur auc- tionS will be conducted as we'll as frequent floor sales when advan- tageous. Fur consignments will be sold to the highest bidder.
 This concern announces a de- partment, in charge of an experi- enced merchandise buyer, to act as buying agent for Alaska merchants. They state that for a commission this department will fill orders of Alaska merchants for groceries, hardware, produce, etc., and will compel factories and wholesale houses to enter competitive bids on all orders. MT. Coselman points out the tremendous advantages that will be realized from volume purchases, also the convenience to merchants of being able to ship AuA D " ouCCAOAL> III CdyAICA1G OA SuCII merchandise as they desire. It is claimed for this department that it heralds long step forward in AL aska merchandising and that the merchant failing to recognize it's advantages and opportunities for profit will find himself unable to compete.
 The wholesale manufacturing fur department of c. B. Coselman, Inc, dresses fur skins and manufactures them into garments and scarfs; department solicits merchants only on a wholesale basis in the dressing and making up of scarfs and sundry fur skins from skins belonging to the merchant. Thus, for the first time in history, the fa- cilitieS of an all around wholesale skin house become available to AL aska merchants.

THE CASE OF MAYOR WALKER

In all likelihood those who anticipate that Governor Roosevelt of New York will take precptate action in or derng Mayor James Walker to vacate his office per- haps destined for disappointment
 Regardless of the innocence guilt of Mayor Walker, Governor Roosevelt has many precedents and historical examples to guide him.
 It must be remembered first that Mr. Roosevelt is candidate for the Presidency of the United Staes that the under fire is member of his party and the May of city of six millions of people, Whatever tion the Governor may take will surely be msconstrued regardless of the justice involved In this respect Walker has the straegca edge. He has not only the corrupt forces behind him. but the unknown quantity public action. If removed he claim for political pur pOSes-gving the mob martyr If sustained, 1t will be charged that the action for the purpose of making political capital and winning Tammany support.
 Aside from this is another question of precedent The Constitution of the nation and the State presuppose se lection and removal of public officials by the voters And while provision Is made for executive acton such is put up to Governor Roosevelt it is only in of great est gravity and where there be question of Onable doubt that executive is justified in reversing the mandate of the and of their choos ing In this we have precedent reaching far back into Eng land where Parliament sought to unseat members known to be steeped in moral terpude Then suddenly red to the opposition that their limitation based upon actions committed after the member was legally elected they related to the rules of Parliament As the fitness of the it matter for his constituents to decide In other words if district chose be repre- sented by knavet shared the stigma of the knave. If they could stomach it, so could Parliament
 Thus, Governor Roosevelt has the right to assume this attitude toward Mayor Walker If he is guilty of the corruption and graft charged it is matter for the City of New York to decide whether they wish to have such man as their symbol of impeccabe honesty.
 Thus, it may turn out that Governor Roosevelt will pigeon-hoe the findings of the Seabury committed and leave the verdict with the greater ur-the voters-to decide In this he will be choosing course which cannot evoke criticism to the effect that he sought to whitewash Walker We have many cases of Congress refus ing to seat members because of alleged corrupt practices in securing their electon such buying it from voters Wel if the morality of the voter is low that he will sell himself like chattel what you going to do about it7
