FLAGSTAFF HUBS
WHY OTHER TOWNS DD
'IT GET BATTERIES
Capt. Edward M. Robison of Flag
staff, who was in the city yesterday
on his way home from the state con
vention of the American legrion at
Globe, describing the new battery com
pany at Flagstaff, said that the four
French 75s of the battery would soon
be received and that the company now
consists of 150 men- So many are
.anxious to Join it that permission will
be asked of the war department to re
cruit the company up to full war
. strength, 190 men. In that event it will
be the strongest battery in the United
States, either in the regular organiza
tion or out of it. The equipment will
include twelve caissons.
It is strange, said Captain Robison,
that other towns have not made ap
plication for the organization of bat
teries. If patriotism does not impel
them, a desire to add to the means of
national defense, cupidity should ap
peal to them, for a battery of this class
is worth $3000 a month to the town in
which it is located. For forage alone
there will be an expenditure of $1000 a
month. Chambers of commerce, "he
said, should get busy and should not
delay, for thera are not many French
75s available.
But there are not many towns, added
Adjutant General Ingalls, which take
such an Interest In military matters,
as he learned in the negotiations
which led to the establishment of the
armory which was recently located In
Flagstaff. It was found that all of
the money appropriated for that tfur
pose would be exhausted in the build
ing proper and there would be nothing
left for stables for the horses of the
battery. He mentioned that fact to
some of the citizens and they under
took to raise the needed sum by sub
scription. Then they thought that the
facade Sf the armory would not be
quite as ornate as they would like.
and they raised an additional $5000 to
make changes in it. When that was
. done they told the adjutant general
that If he needed $5000 for anything
else in connection with the armory to
eay so while they were in the business
of raising monev. The citizens had al
ready donated a site of seven acres.
Another thing, almost forgotten, is
that when this country was getting
ready to go to war. recruiting was so
pushed forward in Flagstaff and Coco
nino county that the quota of that
county in the first draft was nil.
MEXICAN WFICIAL
CALLS ON GOVERNOR;
TELLS OF CANTO CASE
Among the callers on Governor
Campbell yesterday was Hon. Roberto
V. Pesquiera of Mexico City, financial
agent, for the United States, of the
Mexican federal government. Mr. Pes
quiera was accompanied by W. D.
King, attorney for mining interests in
northern Sonora. Mr. Pesquiera pre
sented letters from President de la
Huerta of Mexico and General Obre
gon requesting from the governor a
letter to Governor W. D. Stephens of
California.
The. financial agent desires to con
sult -with the governor of California on
the Lower California "situation, which
Mr. Pesquiera believes may be dis
posed of without resort to arms. There
is only one obstacle in the way and
that is Governor Cantu. Mr. Pes
quiera is aware that Cantu is very
popular In southern California. He
visits that part of the state often, he
furnishes entertainment, though of a
questionable character, at Tia Juan a,
for many thousands of people who liko
that sort of thing and would not de
sire to have it broken up as it would
be if the territory were brought under
the control of the federal government,
as it must be one way or another.
Business Interests in the southern
part of California, also, Mr. Pesquiera
believes, are inclined to Cantu because
of the revenue they derive from the
maintenance of "open house" at Tia
. Juana. Also extensive interests which
havs larxre holdings on the other sfde
of thA linn are bound to Cantu bv his
policy of protecting their interests. All
these conditiosn, says Mr. Pesquiera,
make for locar support oi cantu wnicn
is manifested, it is understood, in re-
American interests in Lower Cali
fornia, the financfal agent said, would
receive the same protection that is af
forded them by Cantu: that Is. legiti
mate American interests. But Tia
Juana would cease to be a Monte Carlo
That the federal government will
take control of the territory, Mr. Pes
quiera sai'd, is inevitable, but it would
. " "
he believes that with the cooperation
of tne autnormes on mis siae or me
line peaceable occupation can be ei
fected.
FEU IN THE SNOW
IT
MGf
ARIZONA
George I Harben of Flagstaff, for
mer assistant attorney general, resents
the incredulity with which newspaper
reporters and others have received a
narrative he gave lately of an accident
which recently befell a youth of Flag
staff, Leon Agner, who lies at his home
with a broken collar bone, the result of
a fall he suffered early in August when
he lost his footing in treacherous snow.
It seemed improbable that anything
like this could happen in an Arizona
town at this season of the year. "Well,
admits Mr. Harben, it was not exactly
in Flagstaff, that is to say, within the
corporate limits of the town, but on
the slope of the San Francisco moun
tain, which everyone associates with
Flagstaff, so that to all intents and
purposes it was in Flagstaff. What
difference does a mile or two, one
way or the other, make? inquires Mr.
Harben. Only a captious, hair-splitting
objector would raise such a point.
Asked whether the snow which
brought about the downfall of youn?
Agner was this or last year's snow,
Mr. Harben was unable to say. He
.rather thought, though, that it was
snow left over from last winter. But
what difference does that make either?
The age of snow has nothing to do
with its slipperiness. The main fact is
that Agner lies in bed with a broken
s collar bone. The injury was sustained
in the course of a fall and the fall was
f not precipitated by slipping in the dust,
f nor was it a collapse from beins over
tome by heat; he slipped in the snow.
f ' o
The Swiss watch industry at pres
ent is i" such a depressed state that
he three-day week obtains in many
establishments.
