It Is Credited 70 the Energy of Aztian Lodge Nc. !, F. z A. M. e-d Has Been Ceremoniously Dedicated by the Grand lodre.

Among the passengers arriving from the north on the Daylight Express yes terday afternoon were several members of the Masonic order who went from Phoenix and other southern points to Prescott to attend the laying Of the corner stone of the new Masonic tenn ole. now under construction by AZtlan lodge No. 1.

From them il is learned that the occasion was q most inspiring and pIeasurable one, and that there was a large attendance Of MasOns from all over the territory. there being about 200 of them altogether. the largest del egation coming from Jerome.
 The manner in which the Prescott people entertained the visitors was worthy of special commondation and the welcome was general from without the ranks of the fraternity as well as within them. While it was purely lodge event it partook in a measure of a community function, and all Pres colt was glad to extend her hospitality. The construction of this new temple will be an honor to the city. a memo rial to the energy of Aztlan lodge, which is the first and oldest lodge in the territory and the first to erect it's own temple as a lodge home.

The territorial fair commissioners were in conference Saturday and again yesterday to finish up some very i'm portant business. Messrs. Packard and Pollock leaving last evening for Bis bee. It was a working session. and a great deal was accomplished that is of public interest.
 As everybody knows, the commission is handicapped by lack of legislative appropriation for more buildings, nev- ertheless some additional construction is positively necessary, and the com mission has done the best il could by a very small amount of building and the employment of canvas to serve temporary purposes. In the first place it has been shown that the grand stand. large as it is. is too small to accommodate the crowds on the big days. It has been decided therefore

PROCESSES IGNORANCE
Manager Vail Says he Thought the
Lovers were In Earnest.

II. S. Vail, manager of the
Family theater, thinks that he was
done an injustice in the newspa-
per stories published Friday re-
garding the proposed marriage Of
Mrs. Fanny Donavin and 15-year-
old Fred Whitesides, which was
prevented by message received
from the boys mother.
/ AS far as he was concerned, Mr..
Vail says, the marriage was never
intended as an advertising scheme.
He says that until Friday morning
he thought that young Whitesides
and Mrs. Donavin were in ear
nest. The boy told Vaal that after
his marriage, he and Mrs. Dona-
vim would enter vaudeville togeth-
er.
Thursday night l went back on
the stage and saw Mrs. Donavin
kiss the hoy and say she was sure
they would be happy" says Vail. f.
81 Thought all along that the
two people were sincere and that
the wedding would be legitimate.
! think l have been unjustly cen-
sured in this matter.

NOT AN EASY

Collecting Divorce Statistics
Proves a a'Chlnese Puzzle

G nm AL -, ac Th,a % n uA~~,
Sometimes This is a Hercu-
lanean Undertaking
Suspicious. Of the People are
Aroused and the Assessors are
Unable to Dispel Them.

ANY one who has got it into his
head that job as q collector of
divorce statistics IS sineeure, i
laborinc under u hallucination, ac-
cording to information given by
William j. Elliott, the special
agent of the United s1ies de.
partment of commerce and labor
who is here now getting record
Of all divorce suits brought in the
court of common pleas during tho
past 20 years.
Fear about a yea Elliott, in
conjunction with seve. al other spc-
cial agents, had been collecting
hhese statistics throughout Ohio,
ana during this time he has GER
tainlv had his troubles. The worl,
Of compiling these statistics, does
not consist merely in going over
the court docllets, but makes it nee
cssary to examine every one Of the
innmmcrablc petitions which have
been filed during the past Two dec
AIDES.
In Marion county, Elliott says,
he has been able to. work faster
and more conveniently than he has
III any other county of this state.
This is due to the fact that n sys-
TEN of Filling papers has always
ibcen carefully maintained here and
the collector of statistics has no
difficulty to locate at moment IS
notice any paper which he may
wish to sf'md. The facilities which
have been somewhat unexpectedly
afforded Elliott will enable him
to finish his work in a shorter
period than he had anticipated
He says that he will probably he

that Marion county will make a

increased to n great extent here
during the past five years or so.

AFRAID OF
The POLL TAX
Information Withheld From
the Assessors
REGULAR ENUMERATION
Is Mistaken for a Lire Upon
the Voters
Special Agent w. J. Elliott Who is
Now at Work in Marion County
Will Complete Work In Ten Days

The road tax law, although it will
not be enforced In the city of Marion,
is still causing trouble. The latest
complaint comes from several of the
fourteen assessors VINO are now at
work in the city. They say that
there are many of the people who do
not seem to know that the law will
not be enforced In the city, and as a
consequence. they refuse to give the
assessors the names of the voters In
their homes.
I'm surely up against a stiff prop
osition," said an assessor who dropped
into County Auditor Allent office,
Friday. i've called at any number
lof homes where ! was positive that
one or more voters lived, and at all
of them | was Informed that every
one on the premises was either q
woman or n minor. It's all on ac-
count of that road tax business.
These people are afraid the assess
ors are being sent around to get the
names of voters so they can he COM
PEELED either to get out and work q
couple of days on the streets or pay
81 instead"
This is the year that the assessors
are taking the Quadrennia enumera-
ton Of voters, this being done previ-
ous to every presidential election.
IL Is estimated that Marion should
have $500 or more voters this year,
but the probability is that this mis-
understanding on the part of many
people. which makes them believe
that the enumeration Is being taken
$50 as to enforce the road tax law.
will result in the enumeration falling
far below this figure.
"At all of these places have tried
to explain the object of getting the
voters names. and have taken an oath
that 1t has no connection with the
road tax. It's all wasted breath
though; they won't believe me-" the
discouraged assessor told Allen.
The county auditor stated Friday
that he deplores this misunder-
standing on the part of the people.
He hopes that this erroneous i'm
preston will disappear sufficiently
to enable the assessors to get at least
fairly accurate enumeration.

FEAR UNCLE SAM;N0
Cyrus III. Mccormick FavOrs
Federal Rule for Trusts.
COMES HOME FROM EUROPE
Declares That Honest Corporations
Should Have No Complaint to
Make of Regulations.
COMES HOME FROM EUROPE

New York, Oct. 9.-''No honest cor
poration should fear government reg
ulation," said Cyrus H. Mccormick
head of the International Harvester
company, who has just returned from
a business trip to Europe. Mr.. Me
Cormick declared that this form OF
control was the only one which would
benefit both the large corporate in
terests and the public.
absolutely false, declared Mr.. Nc
Cormick when referring to the state
ment often made that American har-
vesters are sold cheaper abroad than
they are at home.
81 do not believe there need be any
great alarm" he said, "over our gov
ernment's attitude toward large cor
porations. While temporary and indi,
vidual cases of hardship may result
in the end the effect of careful, hon
est, wise and prudent control of these
large corporate interests by the federal
authorities cannot but be helpful
"In the end the confidence in Amer
lean securities abroad must be all
the greater if the foreign investor is
assured by the highest power of this
land that we are doing our business
on correct principles. No question ever
was settled rightly by considering it
from only one side. No corporation
great or small, which is conducted
honestly and which is willing to obey
the law can complain of proper reg
ulation and control.
Corporation management will do
well to realize this and to assist in
bringing about a better and healthier
state of affairs. Government regu-
lation. and control is the only one
that will benefit both the public and
the large corporations"
When asked as to general trade
conditions in Europe, Mr.. Mccormick
said:
"From an agricultural implement
standpoint the situation is satisfac-
tory, although the harvests in Rou-
mania, central and southern Russia
and parts of Hungary and Italy have
been somewhat disappointing. AL
though American manufacturers of
harvesting machines are making r"ost
gratifying progress in the worlds mar
kets, they are handicapped by the UNI
favorable tariff restrictions of many
foreign nations. If fair reciprocal trade
agreements could be negotiated be-
tween the United States and the lead
ing countries it would give tremen-
dors impetus to the trade of Ameri-
can manufacturers.
s.The statement is made frequently
on the stump and elsewhere that our
harvesting machines are sold more
cheaply abroad than at home, but
that is absolutely false" So

d. C. Davies took a trip to Kasota
yesterday. He returned last week from
trip to Grand Rapids and vicinity
where he has considerable land He
found rapid development going on
as the country is in the iron region
Some time ago he traded for forty
acres without seeing it, and when he
came to look at it he found that it
is adjacent to the finest quality Oh
iron ore land in the country. The
iron company has bought on both
sides of him, and he has received some
offers from parties who were probably
sent by the company. He intends to
hold on for awhile
