They extend a general invitation.
S. G. Worden, representing the
Whitten Pub. Co. of Los Ange
les, was taking orders for some
of their valuable publications
this week.
Major E. I'. Andrus, com
manding officer at Fort Apache,
was down Thursday to meet his
wife and son, who came in from
Saint Paul.
A. L. Gravely, manager of
W'ooster's store at Whiteriver,
visited with his many friends
here while on his way to Pres
cott to attend court.
Mrs. J. F. Woods expects to
leave next week for Sturgis, S.
Dak., to attend the golden wed
ding of her father and mother,
Mr. and Mrs. Harris.
It seems that the deputy mar
shal secured most of the jurymen
for this term of court from the
upper country, and there has
been quite a number from ApaV
die and southern Navajo in to
take the train for Preseott.
F. J. Wattron will be head
quarters this year for holiday
goods, and is now busy loading
his shelves and decorating his
store preparitory to the holiday
rush. He will have a fine dis
play of these goods which will
be sold at reasonable prices.
Sheriff-elect C. I. Houck has
announced that he will appoint
J udd Lathrop as his deputy for
Holbrook. This appointment,
lis far as we have heard, will
give universal satisfaction, and
we believe that udd will fill the
position with credit to himself
as well as the county.
W. C. Ten Iiyck departed for
his home at Santa Ana, Calif.
Tuesday morning, where he ex
pects to remain with his family.
He closed a deal just before leav
ing in which the Apache House
was sold to Mrs. Hathorn, who,
we understand, will lake charge
of the hotel about Feb. 1st.
While at Winslow yesterday
we witnessed a small scrap be
tween a couple of machinists
who were on their way home
from the shops. One pushed the
other through the plate glass
front of Babbit Brothers' store,
the cost of which will be about
$1 50. Rather expensive qu;yrel.
Superintendent I. L. Hibbard,
Assistant Traffic Manager Bis
sel, General Passenger Agent J.
J. Byrne and Assistant General
Freight Agent W. G. Barnwell
came in from the west on No. S
this morning. Their private
ears are sidetracked here today
while they are taking in the pet
rified forest.
Dr. G. S. Keed, who tins been
in Navajo county for several
years, left for Phoenix this week
with the intention of looking up
a location somewhere in that
part ol the territory. We would
indeed be sorry to lose the doc
tor from our midst, but in the
event of his deciding on a new
location, we hope it will prove
beneficial to him financially and
otherwise.
Word received from A. F. Pot
ter states that he has completed
his labors in Utah and will re
turn to Washington. Says he
met many people who had lived
or had friends living in Arizona,''
and seemed quite like home. The
country has been blessed with
good snowstorms and the out
look for the farmers and stock
men is very encouraging for the
coming season.
The Indians who, it is suppos
ed, stole the bunch of horses
.from II. H. Scorse, were called
before Justice Wattron Thursday
tor a hearing. The Indian wit
nesses who had previously ad
mitted knowledge of the theft
would not squeal when placed
on the stand. So there you are..
In another roundup Mr. Scorse
may be able to find his horses, if
they haven't been killed for beef.
Mrs. Ernest Crismon and
mother, Mrs. M. J. Ellsworth,
came down fromShumway Mon
day and left Tuesday morning
for Mesa, where they will spend
the winter. Mr. Crismon ex
pects to go down in a few days,
but will go across the country.
He expects to be absent about
two months, during which time
the Silver Creek Flour Mills, of
which he is manager, will be
closed.
This office is now supplied with
the best and lnrirest stock of let
terheads, billheads, statements,
wedding cards, ball programs,
calling cards, envelopes, etc..
ever carried by a printshop on
this line. There is no need of
sending further than Holbrook
for your printing. We handle
nothing but the best grades of
stock, and quality considered,
you can't get the work done
cheaper in the cities than at
home.
Ai: parties indebted to me are
requested to settle with my
successors, Smith & Smith.
. T. Eoc.EK.
I Senator Deveridg'e.
The gentleman from Indiana
has incurred the lasting enmity!
I of the people of New Mexico and
Arizona by his prejudiced, course I
in regard to statehood for these ;
.territories and his remarkable;
; star chamber way of making his
, flying Investigation as to the fit-!
ness of these communities for!
self-government. j
His way of investigating was:
somewhat after the style of a i
petty monarch visiting a con
quered province. He was pre-;
pared to turn up his nose at
everything that he saw on the
hasty trip.
The people were at first amused
i at his proceedings
The idea of!
j a young fellow fresh from the
I sycamore bottoms of the Wabash
deciding upon tne ntness ot a
half million of people for self-government
by a hasty glance at the
dockets of a few country justices
of the peace, was so ridiculous
that it was not supposed prob
able that the senate of the United
i States would consider it for a
moment.
However, it appears from the
I dispatches that the question of
admission depends upon the re
port of Senator Beveridge. He
is against us. We do not have
! stump fences like those in Indi-
ana, and this is against us in the
eyes of Beveridge. We have no
white cap societies, such as flour
isii'bjc night in Indiana; we' have
no dialect poets; no "blocks of
five" politicians. To be reported
upon adversely by a senator
from Indiana is much like being
kicked by a mule. The assump
tion of superiority is so supreme
ly assinine that it is considered
more of an insult than an injury.
New Mexico and Arizona hope
that the venerable senate will
not take the sophomoric senator
from Indiana as their guide on
this great question. They have
more than a schoolboy know
ledge of the resources of these
territories.
As to Beveridge, personally, he
1 sll"uld be retired at the end of
I his senatorial term. He is en-
tirely out of place in the senate.
He should be assistant attorney
for one of the big trusts. Albu
querque Citizen.
