 ROAD DISTRICT BONDS
Other Business Transacted by the Supervisors Yesterday

The board of supervisors yesterda had before it the matter of the bond issue of s30,00O for road district No. 1, the first of the special districts. The bonds had been voted and all had been done that could be done without the approval of congress. That having been given. the matter was put up to the board which will now advertise for bids for thirty days from today.
 The proceedings or a bond issue for the issuance of S4OOO bonds for a school house in the Palo Verde dis trict also came up and the same action will be taken.
 An application was presented to the board for rights of way over the crossing of county roads for the Phoenix and Buckeye railroad. The application had been submitted to the district attorneys office for approval as to form and it had been approved, but when it was laid before the board it was discovered that the approval was not endorsed on it. No action could therefore be taken, but the right of way it was stated would be granted today

''KIDNAPED BY BETTY
 SENIOR CLASS PLAY
To Be Given at Elks' Theatre Friday
 Night.

The play, Kidnapped by Betty" to be given next Friday night by the senior class of the high school at the Elks' Theatre. is a story of the kid mapping of q man named Peyton, by the leading lady. Betty Norton. It is caused by a mistake in identity. and leads to a series of mishaps. A railroad wreck occurs in which the Kidnapped man is seriously injured. His leg is broken and the skull is fractured.
 The first and second acts show the work of expert doctors. The second act discloses the finish of an opera tiOn, in which Wesley Knorpp and Roy Kirkland show the excellence of their training as doctors. Full oper- ating costumes and other parapher- nalia needed in the surgical room are used. and there is not a thing lack ing to make the performance real.
 As Bcd filling says. in the play. Tt is the unexpected that always hap pens So it is with the entire play. New situations arise constantly, and matters lead from bad to worse, un- til some little action or explanation clears the entire horizon again.

The Imaginable is not forgotten in the play George Shipp, in the part of the awkward Cal Corner, will draw a laugh at every step. His attempt at love making to Hannah, the cook, is a little comedy in itself. The part of Hanna is carried out by Nena Shaw yer. She pOrtrays a strong, bull headed type of cook who does not ac- cept many orders from her employers.
 Lovemaking goes through the ac tion, and the most surprising matches are made by the ingenuity of Doctor Dawson. who continually butts in," whenever there is a chance of humil- iating anyone or causing difficult situations.
 The leading man. Preston Jones. in the part of Willoughby PeytOn. lies in bed during the greater part of the play, and it. is with much difficulty that he is able to make love to Betty, but by the aid of an electrical storm he is able to accomplish all that is necessary. Naturally all turns out well, but it is in the laughable situa- tiOns necessary to bring about this end that the strength of the play lies.
 The sale of tickets for this play will commence on Thursday morning at o'clock. Reserved seats will be on sale at Boehmer's Drug Store. Prices are seventy five cents and dollar.

MT. Heard that if the Center street bridge is build, it is not their inten- ton to cut up and dispose of their holdings immediately, but it is their policy to allow other lands to be sold and they will hold theirs until they can get the cream of the market. It means that the ten thousand acres of land will be worth, when it is of fered for sale, some $50 or $10O an acre more than it is worth at the present time. It means that the poor devils of homeseekers that buy these tracts of land must bring into this valley from s5OO,OO0 to $1,0O0,OOo more money to buy the land, to make a home for themselves, than would be required at the present time.
 I charge that the board of trade of Maricopa county is allowing itself to be used to further the purpose of this corporation and other private specu- latOrs. l charge it upon statements made by these gentlemen, themselves. I say it is not right and l don't think that the tax payers of Maricopa county will agree that it is right. What We should do is- to encourage
  by MT. Newell, the director of the reclamation service. We should give the immigrant who comes in here a chance to make a home and pay for it-allow him q part of the raise in stead of robbing him of what is justly due him and putting the whole amount down in the pockets of cor porations and speculator@ If the public will enquire, it will be found that the majority of these gentlemen who are bowling the loudest for the bridge at Center street are either agents of corporations, speculators, or paid henchmen. As far as these gen tlemen are concerned, it is a business proposition with them and if they are able to warp the judgment of the tax payers of Maricopa county, the tax payers are a different set of men than. we believe them to be.

Must prescribe some of the In- gredients that are contained In Hoods SarsapariIIa for all trou- -bIes of the blood, stomach, kid neys and liver.
 They include sarsaparilla, stillingia, yellow dock, gentian, wild cherry bark, mandrake, dandelion, juniper berries, pipsissewa, etc.
 The combination and proportions are our own formula and give power to cure beyond the reach of any other prescrip- ton or substitute. That's why it is wise to get Hoods and only Hoods.

It is fight to finish, the eontes
for the parish seat of baby Eyange
line, the youngest offspring Of Of,
Mother st. Landry.
The contest comes to an end mex
Tuesday, the 9th, and there is mucl
speculation as to who will win.
The on dit is that the fight is be
tween Eunice and Vile Platte, but
the friends of Mamou have not giYer
up the ship by any means, and SAL
that election day will prove that theil

why. Vile Platte will win in d

Why, Mamou is bound TO win,
exclains a Mamouite.
So there you have it. And It is
no more than customary, that every
candidate in the field should express
confidence in the outcome, and the
people will have to quietly await the
result of Tuesdays battle of ballots.
The activity is confined, however.
mostly TO Eunice and Vile Platte.
The advocates Of both places are
thoroughly organized, while Mamou
seems to be making a sort Of an in
different fight. But it will be recall
ed by those familiar with the fight
for the parish seat Of Acadia parish
that up to the very time that the
vote was announced it was confident
y believed that there was no power
on earth to defeat Rayne for the
honor. Crowley was not thought of.
and second place was given to Prai-
RE Hayes. But after the count Of

A PROHIBITION ELEC
ton TO BE ASKED
Aali.ProAlblilonlsis appear Before Pallce
Jafy u 10 lnformaI way.
SOLICITED An EXPRESSION
bHi Parish Salons Soy Eaaghg...wlll Circulate
Psiiiian ana Ash for Special Session Of
The Jury.

Hon. Peyton R. Sandoz, speakin
for what he termed the saloon ii
terests Of the parish, appeared be
fore the Police Jury Tuesday evening
after that body had adjourned it
| regular session, and informed til,
members that il was the purpose q
those he represented to ask that th
Police Jury meet in special session D
an early date and consider a petition
asking that a special election b,
called to take the sense Of the peopl,
OF st. Landry as to whether Of no
license for the sale of liquor shall b
issued next year.
It was the evident intention to gel
an expression from the Police Jur,
as to how the members stood ON the
question Of the granting OF an elec.
tlen, but if this was the purpose, ii
failed dismally. Every member save
one sab like the Egyptian Sphinx and
said nary a word. The lone member
TO express himself, and that in q
rather low tone, was Police Juror
Doucet, Of the fifth ward. 1T is NO
use to call a special session; we IN
the country don't want an election;
we want prohibition"
It is understood, however, that the
vote, if show down. is called, will
be close on the question Of submit
ting the matter to the people. The
prohibitionists say that they have
four members for certain that will
vote against granting an election:
and the prohibitionists claim the same
number. II that is d fact, the side
that gets the other member There
are nine members Of the jury will
win out.
Mr. sandoz, in addressing tE.e IarY,
called attention to the ifnpossibilitY
of the enforcement Of prohibi-
tlon law; he cited the cases
n which pleas Of guilty been en-
tered, hailing from every tian og
the parish. He said Il hs iF-
finitely better The sa
licensed and the proprieG this
allowed to conduct d Legitimate busi
ness. These men do not desire 10
violate thesl of the land; all they
ask is that their business be legiti
matized BY law, and they permitted
to contribute 10 the public funds In
recompense for running their busi-
ness. Mr. Sendoz expressed the
opinion that there had been j great
change in sentiment III this parish:
that prohibition had proved a failure
and the people desired to return to
licensed saloons.
Hon. 3. 3. Dubuisson, Parish AT
torney, was present, and instructed
the jury as to the law in the case.
He said it was d matter left entirely
to the Police Jury as to whether Of
not an election should be held; that
it could order an election without 4
single petition, and that it could re-
fuse to order one no matter how
many petitions were presented. The
Presideat may call She Police.
Jury together in special session upon
the petition Of twelve freeholders.
It is understood that petitions for
will at once be circulated,
asking for an election. to be held be-
fore January.
