Engineers Confer on Im

Dam; llanna Brings
Word of Snow On Utah
Project
New gates for the sluicing tunnel

subject f discussion by prominent
engineers at a conference in Los An
gelef, last week; Supervising Engin
eer Frank V. llanna, who returned
yesterday from a ten day's trip
west, announced the contemplated
changes and improvements yesterday.
Although there are three pairs of
gates in the tunnel, made and in
stalled with the idea of never hav
ing them break or get out of or
der, the reclamation service feels it
wise to improve the gates in such
a way as to safeguard this im
portant point still further. Bronze
facings, impervious to rust or corro
sion to the mineral water of the
reservoir, will be substituted for the
present iron and steel ones
In the event .the first set of gatei,
go bad. I lie second and third can
be used to check the drain of wate-
from the bottom of the reservoir.
But should all the gates be broken
ci damaged, the lake would drain to
its last drop, unless some extraor
dinary repair measures could be ef
fected.

10 STOP SALE
(ilendale Men Ask Injunc
tion Against Mayor,
Council and Clerk to Ke
strain Them from Mak
ing Deal
Alleging that to pursue the p lan pro
posed oy the city officials of Glendale
to sell the water bonds to eastern cap
italists, will result in a .net loss to the
community, business men of the sugar
town yesterday filed suit in superior
court to restrain the mayor, council
and town clerk from completing their
deal. A well known (Ilendale business
man informed the Republican last
night that the move is the result of un
satisfied political ambitions on the
part of the complainants.
The names of the men who have
backed the suit ale: V. E. Messinger,
W. c. Welsh, J. L. Gant. K. J. Hock,
J. H. Hill, 11. liogateroff, O. G. Engle
hart. It. K. Fuller and ( O. Nicstreth.
The complaint avers that the defen
dant officials are about to sell water
bonds to the amount of $40,000 to east
ern capitalists, and that the price
ipioled is too low to m:ike the deal a
profitable one for (Ilendale. It is said
that the movement is not the result of
the sentiment of the citizens at large.
SPECIALISTS STUDYING
NEW DISEASE OF TEETH
Salt River Valley Found to be One
of Localities Where "Brown
Stain" is Prevalent
(Special to Republican)
TE.Mi'E, Jn. 12 Dr. Frederick
S. McKay, of Colorado Springs,
C(lo., left. Monday for his home, af
ter spending some ten days visit
ing Dr. V (i. DeVere. on North
Mill avenue. Dr. McKay is one of
a committee of scientists that have
been doing special research work
in connection with a certain brown
stain that is found on the teeth.
The fact that the stain occurs on
so many teeth of so many people
in the Salt River Valley induced
the doctor to come to Tempo and
secure the co-operation of Dr. De
Vore in prosecuting his investiga
tions. Existing only in certain localities
the brown stain, as it is scientifical
ly known, s very prevalent, in cer
tain sections of this valley and, 1n
gathering statistics, Drs. McKay and
t'eVore found a surprising number
of cases in Mesa, Florene and the
Indian school at Saca.on At the
latter place, of some two hundrod
children whose teeth were examined,
all but one Wore, found to be poss
essed of "brown stain." From the
numerous cases observed dati was
obtained to be used in further study.
The committee that ha the. in
vestigation in charge is having ex
haustive tests made 'if the water
and food in the districts where the
cases are numerous, and hopes to
be able to ascertain what is 'he
cnuse if the stain, a fact fiat is
not at present known. Investigations
nlso include the method of prevent

of the stain. Dr. McKay has made
investigations that have taken him

RECORD READ
Government Presents Long
Depositions in Suit to
Oust Grand Canyon Cat
tle Company from Water-hole-niining-claims
Wading through huge masses of
pure reading matter, contained in
the most voluminous set of deposi
tions ever filed in an Arizona case,
the government made progress in
the suit to cancel the "mining claim"
patents held by the Grand Canyon
Cattle company, yesterday. James
M. Sheridan, special assistant to the
attorney general of the United States
was on his feet most of the day,
reading to Judge Sawtelle's court,
the testimony collected from various
experts, to try to prove that the
patents were secured under an al
leged fraud, in order that the owners
might control the water supply of
the Houserock valley a rich graz
ing section of northern Coconine
county.
But one effort was made to im
prove the claims, as the law says
mining claims must be improved
says the government. Out of four
lode claims and one mill site, not
enough real mining work was done
to secure title to one good healthy
mine, is the contention of the com
plainants. On the admissability of certain
portions of the testimony particu
larly voluntary statements by gov
ernment investigators the attorneys
wrangled calmly and dispassionately.
A good many objections were made
by the defense as to the materiality
of certain parts of the depositions.
Documents In the case have re
quired years to compile and many
trips through the Houserock region.
At the time of trial, reams and
reams of "copy" are in evidence
containing material gathered in a
score of places even as far away
as Cheyenne, Wyoming.
The hearing will occupy all of the
week, it is thought, and until it is
known for certain and sure just
when the trial will be concluded, ro
other cases will be called. The ses
sion will occupy itself with civil
enses only, and no jury will be called.

ORDINARY ALMANAC
DIMENSIONS OUTGROWN
19'15 World Almanac Holds All the
Old Departments, With Many
New Features Added.
If there is anything new under the
sun, the chances are that it's in The
World Almanac. This is a sweep
ing statement. For its justification
one may point with much confi
dence to the files of the most regular
of annuals, i For particular and cur
rent instances, reference is recom
mended to the issue for 1915, now just
at hand.
As one reads this book, the time
seems very far' removed, indeed, when
an almanac was merely a booklet of
calendar pages, with wise remarks
about the sun, the moon, a few plan
nets, the tides, and the best time for
planting various kinds of seeds. Here
set forth, besides election and census
returns, sporting records, industrial
and financial reports, a New York
City gazetteer, and the countless for
mal informatory departments to which
the years have accustomed readers of
The World Almanac, are a review of
the war in Europe; notes on the
wars of the world; the political state
platforms of 1914: details of the spe
cial or emergency tax: analysis of
the prison population; factory statis
tics; workmen's compensation laws,
occupations in the United States; the
Federal Reserve Act; the Federal
Trade Commission: statistics of fore
ign born population in the United
States: a description of the Mexican
situation; facts about the Chinese Re
public: the progress and plans of
the Palisades driveway; a paper on
the aeroplane and aviation generally
in war, and too many other things
to receive even a reviewer's bare
mention.
Of course this book has more than
a thousand pages. It outgrew ordi
nary almanac dimensions long ago.
It will carry its own "Happy New
Year" welcome to librarians, students,
professors, statesmen, editors and
readers in general all over the land.
