THE TIDE SETTING AGAINST MR..
CLEMENT-MARKED SLUMP DUR.
ING THE WEKK.
Trom the bennington Banner)
The editor of the Banner has returned
from n trip through the state, having
visited nine of the fourteen counties and
devoted considerable time and what talent
he possesses to an unprecedented study of
the political situation. 1t is his opinion
that Mr.. Clements canvass has slumped
badly during the past week and his
strength shows signs of d~isintegration in
many parts of the State.
The reason seems to be a lack of or
eanization, a lack of local leaders and
Il feeling among the more conservative
of those at first inclined to his support
that he Is failing to prove his case. To
hold until election what strength he now
has Mr.. Clement needs more speakers.
more money spent in legitimate canvass
and local organization and more active
cooperation among his supporters espe-
cially IN the small towns.
Mr.. Clements attack on the present
State school and State highway tax sys-
TEN and his demand for electing repre-
sentativcs to the general assembly by
districts rather than by towns is soaring
off the voters in the small towns without
any corresponding gain in the larger
places.
II is nearly four weeks to the election,
plenty of time for many things to hap
p,n that might effect the result, but just
now, in the opinion of tho writer. the
tide is setting strongly against Mr.. Glenn
cnt.

DOUBLE
(From the Swanton Courier.)

NfTpn tnc SWdntOn COurlor.)
Mr.. Clement Is trying to make a handle
of double taxation in this campaign and
says there is no hope of relief from this
evil by the Republican party. The repub-
lican platform says:
w deplore both unequal and double
taxation as being unjust ard in viola ton
OF the spirit of the constitutional re-
quirement that each person and corpora.
ton shall contribute his portion toward
the expense Of government. We recon-
mend that such measures he adopted by
the next Legislature as Will relieve us of
these evils"
That's a promise by the part to effect
a relief II possible.
Mr.. Proctor in his speech at wanton
Tuesday evening declared his belief in
this plank and said that he favored the
appointment of the strongest possible
commission by the Legislature to go into
the matter thoroughly and try to solve
this complicated question. That is n
promise by Mr.. Proctor that something
Will be done. Isn't the promise of the
Republican party and the promise of
Fletcher ID. Proctor as good and as bind
Ing as any Mr., Clement can make?

GAVE CREEK RAINS FREQUENT AND HEAVY
A CyclOniC Demonstration Preceded
 StOrm Of Wednesday.

The summer rainy season which seemed to be filling a few preliminary dates in central Arizona has thus far given Phoenix the go-by except for brief curtain raiser on Thursday even ing. The Cave Creek section, though is especially favored. Reports from there indicate that whenever it has rained at all this year it has rained in Cave Creek or thereabout and the ap- pearance of the northern sky suggests that there have been numerous show CTS there when there were none in Phoenix. as for instance, last evening. A report from Cave Creek says that that the rain there on Wednesday af- ternoon was almost a cloudburst clear from the Verde to New River and in a very few minutes all the guIches were running full of water. Preceding the rain young cyclone. as full of devil try as a sixteen -year-old boy. came along throwing stones at everybody and everything
 At the Copper Top mine it threw over the hoist and a frame building. which is all the important damage heard about yet. Thirteen years ago similar storm unroofed the stone house at the old Contention mine, fif- teen miles north of Phoenix on the Cave Creek road. Since then no storm or cyclonic force has passed over that section until last Wednesday.
 Theodore B. Jones and another man, whose name was not ascertained, went up to the Meshackety mine on Friday to take employment. The custodian of the Grand Traverse and Arizona Min ing company. says he understands that In the very near future the president and directors of the company will put q large force of men at work on the claims about ten miles northeast of the Cave Creek store or in other words.

MISSES SEVEN ooREo PRIN- CESSE SKIRT 5356.
 Perforated for Belt.

Princesse styles have become quite as general for young girls as for their elders, and such a skirt as this one makes an exceedingly desirable addi- ton to the wardrobe. It can be made from serge, from mohair. linen or any similar material, and will be found ex- ceedingly satisfactory both with a lit tie jacket to match and as a separate skirt to be worn with lingerie waists. In this instance, white mohair is sim ply stitched with belding silk, but while white is fashionable and always girl 1sh, darker colors often are more ser Viceable and are equally correct; also linen, white and colored, is in every way admirable. Again, if liked, the skirt can be trimmed with banding

l. Poppy .Party-Young. Men Must
Pop the Question n@cozy Corners
Votes Taken on the Most Grace
full Lover-Progressive Luncheon
to Raise Money-Eight Tables,
;. Each with a Color Scheme-Good
Suggestion for Church Affair.

The coming of the peoples in July
brings possibilities of a very attrac-
tive party. 1t is a prime idea for a
young peoples frolie on the lawn.
Here the old-fashioned progressive
proposal party" can be used with pro-
priety and good effect--not to mention
possible results.
The house should be decorated
throughout with poppies-real or ar
tit1cial. The lamps must be shaded
with poppy paper shades and the lawn
should. be hung with japanese Ian
terms.
The feature-and the work for the
come in the Arrangement
of the coy corners. While they should
be some distance apart they must be
in plain view of the crowd, other
wise the proposals might become too
realistic. The, corners, may be ar
ranged through the lower rooms Of the
house and about the lawn. Each will
bear a number and numbers will be
given, also, to both maids and men.
The partners are found by means of
these numbers. The young women
each of them-will take possession Of
the corner bearing her number and the
young man with the similar number
will seek her out. From three to five
minutes will be given for each pro-
posal and the young men will then
progress to the next booth. He makes
the same proposal to every young
woman if he so chooses. Each keeps a
tally OF how many times he is refused
and how many times accepted.
During the proposals an orchestra
hidden away some place'plays such bits
as Pop, Goes the WEASEL and that
poppy song, 1.-THE Garden of Sleep
''The Girl I Left Behind Me-" and
many of therrecent coon songs, too,
can be made appropriate. When every
man has gone: to the, last of the
booths: and finds himself with s>>the
girl with whom he started, time is up
and ballots are passed to- both men
and girls. The girl votes on the man
who has made 1.-The most graceful pro-
posal, the men on the girl who has re-
ceived the proposal most gracefully
no matter whether accepted or refused
and the ballots are collected. The tai
lies the men have kept on the number
OF acceptances and refusals, also are
collected. The man who has been &C.
cepted most is given a doll dressed as
bride, with veil. and bouquet. The
pne who has oftenest been refused is
given a copy of 'How to Be Happy
Though Married" The most graceful
lover is given blank marriage license
and the most graceful young woman,
a bridal bouquet:
