ONLY 35O NAMES WILL BRING
 ELECTION
Anti-SaIoon People in Phoenix Intend to Have Question Of Liquor Selling Passed on by Voters
fPhoenix Democrat.

Only $50 signatures are needed to get an election in this county to de eide whether or not the saloons shall be closed altogether. To get these signers members of the Anti-Saloon legaue, headed by Dr. H. A. Hughes, have already put petitions in eircula- ton.
 Under the laws of this territory the board of supervisors must call a couR- ty election to settle questions of this kind if the required number of sigma lures are presented to them in the form of petition.
 District Attorney Bullard was asked this morning regarding the territorial law covering elections Of this kind, and replied that if the petition with $50 signers is presented to the board of supervisors that body must call an election within about twenty days.
 Petitions, which have been prepared by Dr. Hughes and those associated with him, asking that the election be held on February l, 1908, that being the time of the year when practically all the residents of the county are within it's borders.
 If it requires no more than twenty days for the supervisors to call the election, the Anti-Saloon league mem bers will have from now until early in next January in which to circulate and prepare their petitions in every precinct in Maricopa county.
 The election, if it is called, will be held under the same conditions as a general election, the county bearing the expense, which in an election of this kind would be considerable.
 Dr. Hughes stated this morning that he expects little trouble getting the required $50 signatures, and believes that he could get them without going outside of Phoenix. It is probable that he will attempt to get petition with many more signatures than the required number.
 After getting the election called. the Anti-Saloon league will make a i vigorous campaign, sending speakers 1 into all parts of the county, and urg ing that the saloons be closed up. II is not likely that the saloon men will
 be idle all this time.
 The form of petition which Dr. Hughes is preparing has but a brief ! introduction simply setting forth that the petitioners ask the board of super. yisors to call special election to de eide the question of closing saloons and prohibiting the sale of liquor in any part of the county
 This step taken by Dr. Hughes has come as a startling surprise to the saloon men, following so closely on the passage of the Sunday closing law that they had not time to get used to the first until the second was called to their attention.
 Speaking of this new move. nr. Hughes stated thss morning that it is nothing new, being only part of the announcement he made several years ago that before the fight had ended he would have closed the saloons al together

ter ot Paris Forms.
 Recently a prominent taxiderlnist O. St. Louis was taking party of visit. oTs through his establishment. He had some very rare specimens of big game fish. both of the sea and river, besides large collection of birds of every cline about the walls.
 "Is that stuffed, too?' asked a iady, indicating the lifeIike form of a small pet dog which sat motionless upon the hearth.
 I ne TaxTGerInIst TIowned and return. ed very iaGi"nantIy:
 Madam. we do no stufinC here. We stretch our hides over plaster of paris forms The day of stuffing is past, and no up to date establishment does it."
 The party was taken upstairs, through the rooms where the real taxi dermy is done. They had expected to see hides being crammed full of saw dust. shayings and perhaps hair No such tbing was seen. however, and fo place of this were men and boys mold ing out the forms of deer. antelope. fish and other kinds of animals in the smooth white plaster. This is done very much ia the same way as the terra cotta cOruices are nodded to grace the corners of buildings. The hides after going through the cleaning process are stretched tigh'ly over the plaster form. which indeed is more tasting than the old fashioned manGei of stuhipg them.
 Even specimens of fish are treated in this manner" resumed the taxider- mist, "and you may easily see how 3 skin woulI retain its shape a great deal longer over the hard. smooth sur face of the plaster than if a softer ma terial were crammed into if. which fl improperly done will bulge and last bEt A short time."-Exchange

 subject of such vital importance to us all as farming class Of people We have chosen this vocation for the maintainance of our families and I feel sure that l speak your sentiments when l say that we would not have be- come tillers Of the soil had we not thought it reputable.
 We are deserving, my brothers to be held in the highest esteem among the different occupations in life, from the fact that we have gone forth in obedience to the command of our Creator, when He said, from the sweet of thy brow shalt thou eat bread. While this is tue, a train of ci = camstances has placed Us on the bottom rung of the ladder in the realms of society. The cause rests somewhere and l an not disposed to lay the blame alto gether on the shoulders of those who seem to be above us.
 There was g time when we started in life with equal advan- Itages, but to-day 1t is certain that we have been left behind in the race. Let Us bear OUT share iof the fault and condemn not too heavily the man whose business qualifications has shown him to be our superior. But let us profit by his success. We are and have been for ages, class of people who have paid more at tention to our physical training than to cur mental culture.
 We notice that he who has ex- celled us is an educated man. i Therefore We realize the truth in the statement made by one of our great statesmen, when he said, Were 1 so tall as the pole or could 1 grasp creation in a span, l would be measured by the soul, the mind is thestandard of the man. ' Now brother farmers let Us examine more closely, the subject of our dis cussion, which appeals directly to our financial interest. For the past twOscOre years we have been feeling an oppression and it's weight year by year has been growing heavier. We have often been made to exclaim that farming does not pay because we : see that those who produce nothing are in better financial circumstances than we are. But when we consider the fact that the world depends upon us for sustainance, we know that it will not do to cease tilling the soil Therefore We only draw heavier on our muscels and bring to our assistance the very life of our wives and daughters, in order that we might not only produce a lviug. but that we see the non producers have an abundance of. Yet, even by this extreme effort. We find that we are rut material iy benefited Il the fate Of these facts, we see a great wrong, which demands cur earnest consideration.
 We have discovered that men all ever tais land and country. of every vocation kEewn exee tt the farmer haze organized them. selves together for their financial interest aud IT every instance have been successful. You are aware also, my brothers, that we have made several attempts to organize the farmers and have failed. This state of affairs has certainly appealed 10 our strong

SECRETARY BACON A HERO.
Saves Boy From Drowning In tho
Charles River.

Assistant Secretary of State Robert
I. Bacon figured in a heroic rescue on
the Charles river at Boston when he
jumped overheard from the Harvard
launch Veritas and swan to the res
cue Of two boys who had capsized in
canoe and succeeded in saving the
life of one. The second boy was res
cued by J. S. Reed, a student of Har-
ward who followed Bacon into the
water. After swimming for nearly
seventy-five yards Bacon reached the
boy who had become unconscious and
was sinking for the last time. Grasp
ing him firmly Bacon turned back
toward the launch which was moving
slowly toward him, and the men on
the launch drew both Bacon and the
boy back on board. Reed and the
other lad were also picked up.
