Mormolls To
Pray For
Rain Sunday

Stafford, Ariz., Dec. 16-(UP)
"A common fear that there may
be no SHOWS and rains to fill their
already depleted reservoirs has
brought Indians and Whites to-
gether in preparation for season
of supplication in the hope that
their prayers may bring moisture
to ease an unprecedented drouth.
Members of the Church of Lat
ter Day Saints (Mormon) in the
area will observe Dec 18 as day
of prayer for rain to fill the dry
ing Coolidge dam and Indians are
offering daily prayers to their rain
gods for moisture to make the
parched alfalfa fields green with
an early crop.
H. A. Ireland extension agent of
the Pima InJi~1 Agency at Scaton,
said 'fvery critical situation" has
resulted in the drying of, water
stored in San Carlos lake behind
Coolidge dam from 52,lO5 acre feet
to- 1926 acre feet during the year.
To substitute for the usually flow
from the dam, water is being pump
ed from 80 wells to the vast areas
of alfalfa and other feed, which
are parching.
IT don't know how much longer
we can hold out. It's costing us
about $1.50 an acre-foot to pump
and transport water from wells
above the reservation. That's al
most prohibitive, but we've got to
save some Of the crop in the 10000
acre tribal plot.
Spencer Kimball, Stafford stake
president of the Mormon Church,
said churches from Globe, Ariz
across Southwestern New Mexico
to Ell Paso, Tex, will observe the
day of prayer.
"Old-timers," Kimball said, tell
me 1888 is the dryest year since
1904. I don't doubt it. Our crops
haven't been hurt to amount to
anything this year, but we're fear
full of what may happen if we don't
have snow or rain by January"

Sl9,37S Paid To
County Jobless
Past Year

PHOENIX, Dec. 16-In almost a
year under job insurance, Santa
Cruz county unemployed who were
able and willing to work received
$19,387 in benefits, it was reported
here today by the Arizona Unem-
ployment Compensation Commis-
sion.
The figures is complete through
Nov. 80, and represents all pay
ments in the county since the un-
employment compensation program
went into full operation. AS of the
same date, total payments through
out the state we're $1,775.579.
The Arizona Unemployment Com
pellsation law, setting up a state
administered job insurance program,
went into effect February %, 1887.
Benefits did not become payable,
however, until the beginning of
1888. Prior to this year contribu-
tions were collected from employers
to build up a fund capable of with
standing the strain of benefit pay
nents in times of unemployment.
For that reason the system has been
in full operation only during 1898.
AS provided by law, benefits are
paid to persons unemployed through
no fault of their own. In addition,
claimants must be able and willing
to work Refusal of suitable en-
ployment disqualifies the claimant.
Unemployment compensation is
i insurance-job insurance. AS such,
it is paid as an earned right, not
charity. The law is administered by
a state agency which has chosen
it's employees since July 1 under
strict Merit System of civil service
rules.

New Road To
Rocky Point
Proposed

PHOENIX, Ariz., Dec. 16-UP)-
The possibility that Phoenix may
soon bewithin a few hours drive OF
Rocky Point, noted fishing and
recreational area on the Gulf of
Califodaia, was brought to light
with the announcement of Gov.
Roman Yocupicio, of Sonora, that
the Mexican government is consider
ing the construction of an oiled
highway from Sonoyta, Sonora,
Mex, to Rocky Point.
Carl Molling, representative of
Gov. Yocupicio and head of the
State Bureau of Tourist Relations
in Mexico, said here a recent meet
ing held in Sonoyta by Arizona
Chamberce officials and Gov. Yo-
cupicio pledged its cooperation in
the construction of the new road,
which is scheduled to be begun
shortly after the first of the year.
The road would bring Central and
Southern Arizona within few
hours of an ocean playground and
scenic area. 1t is to be connected
with a highway from Ajo, Arizona.
The Mexican government also
contemplates building railroad
connecting lower California and
the State of Sonora, Molling said.
The railroad will be totally con-
cluded within the year of 1899" T"

ed in a wire to Governor Yocupicio.

termined interest in concluding
these works SO as to foment agri-

Sales Tax
Tokens sDisappear

PHOENIX, Ariz., Dec. 16-UP)-
Arizona's "noble experiment of
collecting sales taxes with copper
tokens in five and one mill denom-
ination is a virtual failure, accord
ing to the State Tax Commission.
Of the more than 100000 to-
kens purchased and placed in cir
culation only 623,942 remain on
hand, Frank E. Fraser, tax direc-
tor said. The missing tokens have
a value of almost $4,000 and rep
resented an investment of $4,000.
The situation is acute, Fraser said
because present plans do not allow
for the purchasing of additional to-
kenS until after the 14th legisla-
ture convenes.
Fraser blamed the apparent re-
moval of tokens from circulation on
the law:
The law does not have teeth in
it to enforce use of the tokens
he said.
Besides their designated use, the
copper tokens have become a nov
city used in the manufacture Of
trinkets, wrist watch bands, brace
let's and brooches. Also coin col
lectors have aided in the depletion
of the supply.
Fraser said a great many mer-
chants decline to take the tokens
in payment of sales taxes.

State Prison
ToHave Surplus

PHOENIX, Dec. 16 - Arizona S
State Prison at Florence will be op-
Grated during the final quarter OF
1888 with surplus of more than
$4,000, Guy L. Jackson, Executive
Secretary of the Board of Directors
of State Institutions said today.
The business management OF the
Prison was placed under steward
ship of the Board of Directors Of
flee shortly after October 1st, when
Governor r. c. Stanford and State
Treasurer Harry M. Moore author
led Donald Mcqueen. Purchasing
Agent, and Jackson, to devote
their efforts to cleaning up the
prison situation.
AS a result, ten personnel changes
and shifts of responsibility were
effected, establishing a new morale
among the personnel and more ef-
ficient control of the CommisSary,
Jackson said.
Mr.. Mcqueen, working in close
cooperation with James V. Lavory,
new Steward-Auditor, and Warden
John G.. Eager, was chiefly respon-
sible for the savings, Jackson said.
For the three final months of 1888
toe Prison had $23,875. for expen-
disures. The amount was broken
down by months, and SO managed
that for October approximately
81 200 was saved; for November
81 500 and December 81 300.
During the Special Session just
following the primaries, the Legis-
lature was asked for 81 800 for ad-
ditional guards, Jackson said, "anc
it is my firm belief that the recent
break in which four men went over
the wall would not have occurred
had funds been provided for those
guards. Only two guards were
available to police 100000 square
feet of space within the walls, a
the time of the break, he explained
