LOCAL OPTION
FOR THE VALLEY.
The Question to be Submitted to the
Voters in the Near Future.

Aside from Il mere reference to the
question of local option now being
agitated in the western half of the
county, the local papers of that Sec
ton had nothing to say. However
the following information is CLEANED
from the Tucson Star, which will be
interesting reading to all the people
Of the county:
For the first time in the history OF
Graham county movement To prevent
the sale of liquor has been inaugur-
ated. Last week the movement was
given a footing when a committee con-

O Bryan, we're appointed to look into
,Se matter. This committee met at
layton on Sunday last and later
ISough w. 7. Webb reported in con-
| ference that they had determined to
make a fight for prohibition and that a
committee consisting OF one man from
each school district in the territory
| proposed to be en- braced had been ap-
/ pointed to circulate petitions asking
the Board Of Supervisors to call the
election. The committee consists of
w. +. Glasscock, w. Il. Reed, Rev. c.
Wardlaw, Thomas Aiger, James

per. The territory to be embraced
begins at the west line OF the Solo
knoxville school district and runs 10
the east line OF the shiloh school dis
trict, taking both sides OF the river
The committee of course can alter
these lines and it is quite probable that
SOlOmouville will be included and per-
haps Thomas. 1t requires two-thirds
vote Of the qualified electors OF the
territory embraced to carry the
election.
1t is the gravest question that has
ever been presented to the people OF
this country. 1t Is question that
should call for thoughtful consider
alton on the part of every individual,
and II SOlomonville is embraced it vii
affect seventeen saloons.
The leaders of the movement are
very sauguine OF success, although
they realize that 4 two-thirds vote is a
difficult proposition, but they are in
the fight to win if strong, stubborn
fight will do it.
On the other hand. the saloon men
and their friends seem equally de-
termined. Several of them have been
interviewed but rs a rule they are non
committal and if they are giong to
fight the proposition they declined to
say 50, but from what could be CLEANED
it Is pretty sure they will.
The committee appointed to circu-
late petitions will have a good idea OF
how the people regard the movement
by the time they are through.

1t is quite generally understood that
the Mo rmon people as a class are back
ing the movement and as they are very
strong in the valley, there can be
little doubt that the result will be
favorable to prohibition. Those who
are well versed in conditions IN the
lower valley, state that there is no
doubt that Solomonville will be in
cluded IN the dry" area. If it is not
included on the first vote. it will be in

HOMEMADE CREATION

The rage for artistic and individual creations in
the way of gowns has been steadily the in
crease for the last year or two and fashionable
women with limited purses all saying that the
situation is really becoming serious. OF course,
prevailing styles must be followed in a measure :;
that goes without saying. But when this means
that TO feel appropriately clad for any function
and have tranquil mind in the assurance of being
well dressed s the other women ones gown
must be one mass of intricate elaboration from
collar to hem, the question of how to accomplish
this result is difficult. With our artistic sense
and sufficient leisure. however, much may be done
at home in the way OF pretty hand work and
with a good day dressmaker who understands how
to cut. fit and finish neatly. a clever woman can
turn out creditable creations. Originality in sucn
cases should always be aimed for. Imitation is
