The Board of Supervisors met
Wednesday and awarded the
contract for building the Apache
county court house to the N. P
Olson Construction Co. whose pre
sent headquarters is at Holbrook,
where they built a school house
and other buildings. Six bids
were filed for building the court
house, the amounts specified
ranging up to $49.000 The bid
of the Olson company was for
$36.367.
The contract for moving the
jail cells to the new building was
given to the Pauly Jail Co. of St.
Louis for the sum of $1100, and
this company was also given a
contract for putting in new cells
for juveniles and women at an
additional cost of $1200. A
bond of $25,000 is'required from
the Olson company to guarantee
the completion of the court house
within eight months from the
date of signing their contract.
As to the location of the court
house, it will go on the hill
where the commission decided in
the first place that it should go.
The supervisors closed a deal
with Joy B. Patterson for a plot
17 rods square in the northwest
corner of the block, which will
make a splendid site and in the
long run will porbably prove
more suitable than any other.
The cost of this location is
$1100.
Tunnel h Through
On Wednesday the 350-foot
tunnel at the Lyman dam was
put through, and now the work
of cementing it, which will pro
bably take 30 days to finish, is
in progress. This tunnel is 10
feet in width and 6 feet in depth.
Crews are at work also on the
heel and toe of the dam and on
puddle core, so everything is go
ing forward as rapidly as pos
sible. Engineer Henderlider was call
ed to Denver the first of the
week, owing to the death of his
wife's mother, and will probably
be gone a couple of weeks.
Attorney J. E. Crosby, of Hol
brook, brother to Judge George
H. Crosby, jr., an attorney in
the Nasif Tamar. estate, was in
the city for the whole of this
week, looking after matters in
the superior court pertaining" to
the above mentioned estate.
D.J. Thomas of Holbrook has
been in our city for several days
this week, attendinR to matters
of business before the Superior
court. The Merchants and
Stockgrowers Bank at Holbrook
was appointed adminstrator of
the Tamar estate and Mr.
Thomas, cashier of the bank, is
here for the purpose of looking
after this matter.
The superior court and Cash
ier D. J, Thomas representing
the Merchants & Stockgrowers
bank, adminstrator of the Nasif
Tamer estate, began hearings
last Saturday morning to adjudi
cate the tangled affairs of that
estate and Mrs. Elena Elia and
her daughter Lucy. The hear
ings required five days. Attor
ney F. W. Nelson represented
the Elias, while J. E. Jones re
presented the Tamer brothers,
and A. S. Gibbons and Norris &
Norns represented Reginald
Flake, and J. E. Crosby was the
counsel for the administrator.
As a result of the hearings the
adminstrator and court rejected
the claim of Miss Elia for $4440
for wages she claimed to be due
her from Mr. Tamer and also re
jected her claim for 200 head of
lambs, but allowed her claim to
ownership of the cattle, a pair of
work horges and 354 sheep, and
the claim of her mother for
$6680 for money loaned.
The litigation over the Crone
meyer estate received a fresh
Etiquette Of The Flag.
There are many citizens who
are not familiar with the rules
governing the use of the stars
and stripes. To them the fol
lowing hints on flag etiquette
will be of interest:
The flag should not be hoisted
before sunrise nor allowed to re
main up after sunset. It should
not be displayed upon stormy
days.
When the flag is displayed at
half staff for mourning it is to
be lowered to that position from
the top of the staff. It is after
ward hoisted to the top before it
is finally lowered.
When the flag is formally rais
ed all present should stand at
attention, with hand raised to
the forehead ready for the
salute.
When our national flag and
State or other flags fly together
or are used in decoration to
gether our national flag should
be on the right,
When used on a bier casket at
a funeral the stars should be
placed at the head. In no case
should the flag be allowed to
touch the ground.
It is unwritten law in the navy
that the flag is never to be
washed; it is always to be con
sidered imaculate.
For indoor decorations the flag
can only be used as a drapery; it
cannot be used to cover a bench
or table, desk or box where any
thing can be placed or set upon
the flag.
Defence Council Gives Advice
The Arizona Council of De
fence appointed by Governor
Campbell held a meeting Thurs
day of last week in Phoenix,
and decided to support the
governor in every way possible
in conserving the resources of
the state, and also in his plans
of preparedness. A part of the
resolution adopted by the council
is printed below:
"The Arizona Council of De
fence, in session assembled, calls
upon every individual in Arizona
to stand shoulder to shoulder in
united determination success
fully to meet the critical condi
tions now threatening our State
and Nation.
"The urgent need today is
Conservation. Let all co-operate
in prudent economy in the home,
in our social life and general
activities.
"Our food supply demands
special consideration. All waste
in the preparation and use of
food must be eliminated.
Wherever possible, pershable
foods should be used in prefer
ence to staple products and can
ned goods. The livestock indus
try must be conserved. We
urge the various associations re
presenting this industry to co
operate to this end.
"We recommend that our
merchants, wholesalers, jobbers
and retailers, take such action
as will prevent all unwarranted
or arbitrary increases in prices
of food commodities. Individu
al hoarding and accumulating of
food is pernicious. Such a prac
ice is not only of great injury to
the majority of our citizens who
are compelled from necessity to
buy supplies from day to day,
but, in the end reacts on those
who indulge in that form of
selfishness. We call upon every
individnal to discourage this
practice, not only by precept,
but by his own manly example.
"The planting season for sum
mer crops is now upon us.
Every effort must be made to
.bring all available land under
cultivation. Waste places must
be made io bear subsistence.
Each member of the Council
pledges himself to plant, or
cruse to be planted, a plot of
ground not hitherto under cul
tivation. Our seed supply must
be guarded, and the best avail
able seed planted. Conditions
are such that high prices are
likely to prevail for sometime
to come, and our best effort to
minimize this conditions must be
put forth vigorously.
"Other resources in this
State are very essential to the
welfare of our country. Not
only must all forms of agricul
ture be promoted, war conditions
today demand that the organiza
tion and maintenance of all es
sential industries be kept in a
high state of efficiency. Our
mineral resources must be fos
tered and developed to provide
materials for war. All indus
trial activities must be maintain
ed at their greatest capacities."
