Not in the Lime Light as Yet.
 As the time for the opening of the fall campaign draws near rumors of the candidacy of many of our prominent men for the offices of the county are in evidence Thomas J. Coalter, ex postmaster, is spoken of by his republican friends as the probable nominee for county treas urer, while John Francis is the latest possibility mentioned for the sheriff's office on the democratic side of the house. Amundsen and Douglass are conceded to be out of the race at this time, so that with the exception of Hibben and Hen derson the republicans will have an entire new slate.

THE FOREST RESERVES
A Source of Considerable Revenue
 to Some Counties

Gov. Kibbey has just received a letter of more than ordinary inter- est from the secretary of agricul- ture. By the agricultural appro- priation act for 1907, approved June 30, 1906, it was provided that 10 per cent of the moneys received from forest reserves in the territory in any fiscal year, including that ending June 30, 1906, shall be paid to the territory to be expended as the territorial legislature may pre- scribe for the benefit of the public schools and public roads of the county or counties in which the reserves are situate. +
 The secretary says that pending the determination of the exact share of Arizona he estimates apprcxi- mately the amount that the terri tory will receive:
 Ten
 Reserve. Receipts. per cent. Black Mesa $16.25S.29 $l.625 S2 Prescott ... 2S59.13 2S5 9l G. Canyon (N) 2.54444 254 A G. Canyon (S) 1.OO9.13 1OO91I 5. F.
