youngsters who go about mutilating the
pictures of the Mayoralty candidates

seem to be both Democrats and Repub-

JENSEN CASE DISMISSED
Nothing to Be Done Until After Judge
 Rents Decision.

The case of the territory vs. J. H. w Jensen, charged as manager of the Tivoli garden with q violation Of the local option law was dismissed in Jus tice Burnetts court yesterday at the instance of the office oi the district at torrcy. The case which was begun two weeks ago has been continued frcm time to time and since it was in stttutad the mandamus suit of Melczer against the sheriff was begun to test the law. The matter is now in the hands Of Judge Kent.
 Messrs. Street c, Alexander, the at torneys for the defense, have been made impatient by these frequent con tinuances and yesterday demanded a trial. The district attorneys office could see nothing il the proceeding except useless expense since the judg- Tent of the court would settle noth- inG. If Judge !>ent's decision should sustain the law and declare the exist ence of the local option district a fact the case can be very easily begun agair at the beginning and with little ex- re1se to the taxpayers.

 companies. The large machinery houses of the east and west have sent the ou- redu . lot Of good photos and draw fnss, and a supply of catalogues is ai-
 ways on hand. An instance where ne IT iner and manufacturer are benefited is shown in an incident which hap pened day or two ago. A prominent mining man of Sonora wanted to buy large pump. He went to the bureau and was handed several pump cata- loSCes. He selected one of stan lard make and wired the maker if he could get the pump delivered in a certain ! time. A reply was received and ti.e safe made and confirmed in one day The Sonora man returned next day ,, his micc. This was a saving to him of nearly 2 weeks time. besides s;n e:z- pensive trip to Fl Paso. Denver or Los

Sampseu who was here last year for some time in the interest of the East ern Sugar company and who made many friends in Phoenix, first went to Chicago as private secretary to Judge Grosscup and is now clerk of the cir cult court over which he presides.
 Judge Grosscup spoke very enCouraS- ing,y yesterday of the future of this valley. He said that while himself and some others who had been inter- csted here in a financial way had been little disappointed over the backset in development due to the severe tlrouth of recent years, his view of the future was nevertheless an optimistic ore and he believes there is great prosperity in store. He has been keep ing in touch with the movement for water storage and while net express ing himself at length left the impress sion that he was in accord with the movement and with any other looking to the betteriny of conditions.
 The rarty will continue their tour through California, returning east via the Santa F'c, their time being too linn ited for an extended stay in any one place.
