Floral Fete in September.


Something on the order Of floral
fete will be held in Washington dur
ing the month of September. A deci-
sion to this effect has been reached by
the committee ON advertising Of the
chamber of commerce Many varieties
of richly colored flowers will be in
bloom during September, and beautiful
floral decorations can be accomplished
with comparatively little cost
TO advertise the affair the commit
tee is considering sending an automo-
bile party to nearby points In Mary
land, Virginia and Pennsylvania to
distribute folders and talk personally
with the people. On the day OF the
parade excursions will be run from
nearby cities and towns. BY this
means it is thought the merchants in
Washington win be brought into closer
touch with their patrons from out Of
town. CARL SCHOFIELD.

NOW SOLO IN AMERICA
In Less Than Three Years, Partisan
Sage, the Splendid Hair Tonic,
is Sold all Over America

There is a reason for the phenom-
email sale of Partisan Sage in the Uni
ted States during the past three years,
And the reason is plain to all Par
isian Sage does just what it is adver-
tised to do.
Ask VIM. l.. Gokay about it and he
will tell you that he rigidly guaran-
tees it to cure dandruff, stop falling
hair or itching scalp in two weeks or
money back
There is no reason whatever why
any man or woman should fail to
take advantage of the above generous
offer
But one thing that has made Par
isian Sage so famous is its peculiar
power to turn the harsh, unattractive
hair that many women possess into
luxuriant and radiant hair in a short
time Women of refinement the coun-
try over are using it and it never dis
appoints.
Sold every: where, and in Benning-
ton by VIM l.. Gokay for 80 cents a
large bottle.

Bills Introduced By Arizona Lawmakers
The Assembly

In the house four bills were intro- duced.
 Mir Sutter introdu duced house bill No. Al, which provides a punishment for persons who msliciously circulate false rumOrs concerning the financial condition of banks. This is obviously intended to prevent bank failures in time of panic.

 House bill No. 43, by MT. Sutter provides that banks shall keep a re. serve fund of 15 per cent of the de- posits, which reserve shall be on hand or on deposit in other banks. Mir. Woolf introduced house bill No. A, which provides for & display of Arizona products at the Yukon ex position.

The Council

In the council, MT Morgan intro- duced council bill No. 3l, an amend ment relating to actions and suits for accidents Council bill No 32, by the same author. provides for marriage and divorce among tribal Indians and provides that they shall secure mar riage certificates and have civil cer- emony performed by the Indian agent or other proper official.
 The feature of the council meeting was the introduction of council bill No. 35, which is intended to correct the law concerning underground work CTS in mines. MT. Weedin feared that his previous bill on the same subject might invalidste the entire eight hour law by reason of the fact that it in :. cluded surface men in its eight hour clause. The present bill is for the purpose of segreaating underground workers from surface workers, So that if the flaw is held to be illegal so far as surface workers are concerned, it will not affect the underground men.

Pension List of
 the United Ststes

Mir. Garfield, secretary of the interior, shows in his an- nual report that the names of 50,676 penslons were taken off the pension rolls during t h e past year by death. Nevertheless Congress is so liberal and pension agents are so active that the army of pensioners is kept up. There are still on pension rolls more than one million of persons, a much greater number than during the years immediately following the Civil war. It is this pension list that makes the military establishment of the United States more ex- pensive than that of any other country.

Arizona May Have
 Two Congressman

The statehood bill provides one congressman for Arizona and two for New Mexico. Arizona, however, could hard ly expect more than one con- gressman with the c en u s standing as it does; bat it is possible for tine territory to increase this number by show ing a larger census in 1910 That Arizona has more than 150, 900 inhabitants Is a cer- tainty, but it will take about 250,O00 inhabitants to secure two congressman. and ther this would be stretching into the fractional part.--Phoenia Democrat.

Supervisors Sustain
 District Attorney

At the meeting of the board Of supervisors last nigh. the matter Of the sensational cut in the bills of the various justices and constables were passed upon. Attorney Geo Neale on be half of several clients made state ment to the board against the propos- ed cut and presented authorities favor ing his contention of the legal aspect of the case. District Attorney Will jams stated he felt secure in the cuts ss passed upon by his office and bs- lieved the items deducted were illegal The board sustained the action of the district attorney by allowing the bills as passed upon by that officer. The aggregate amount cut from the vsri. ous bills for the one quarter service reaches between SI200 and $l503. The matter will now be carried to the courts for final adjudication.

 Build to the Coast

Upon the heels of the authentic report that the s P.

The news of the proposed extension of the E & s W from Benson to the cnast in direct competition with the s P is causing much comment in railroad circles, both esst and west.
 The railroad war is imminent and speculation is rife ss to the time when the Phelps- Dodge intereste will begin actual work at the Arizona end. It is understood the route will be from Benson via the Kinesr ranch to Tue. son and thence direct to Ssu Diego. An alliance with the San Diego & Ari- zona road is probable, in which event the route may be slightly changed after leaving Tucson and wouli take in Phoenix and Yuma.
 Meanwhile the s P Co ie also busy paralleling the lines of the E. P & sw in Cochise county and within three months it is claimed will have s P trains running into Gleeson, Court land, Bisbee and Douglas, and but lew months later will be st Nacosari.

Women Who Wear We'll.

IL is astonishing how great . change . lew years Of married life often make in the appearance and disposition Of many women. The freshness, the charm, the brilliance vanish like the bloom from . peach which is rudely handled. The matron is only dim shadow, faint echo of the charming maiden. There are two reasons for this change, ignorance and neglect. Few young women appreciate the shock to the system through the change which comes with marriage and motherhood. Many neglect to deal with the unpleasant pelvic drains ard weak nesses which too often come with mar riage and motherhood, not understanding tsat this secret drain Is robbing the cheek Of it's freshness and the form of its fairDe.s

Committee Oppose
 Appropriation

That the proposed appropriation of S25 900 to establish manual training department in the Flagstaff Normal School will not be recommended by the committee of the assembly sp- pointed to examine it, is apparent from statements made by the mem- bsrs of the committee upon their re- turn from Flsgstsff. Assembly m an Fred Suster of Cochise, Phil c Merrill of Graham and Frank J. Duffy of Santa Cruz, are unanimous in the opinion that the cost of maintaining the Institution is a waste of public money. taking into consideration the number of the teachers graduated. The school has an enrolment of only thirty scholars. It has been suggested that the Flagstaff normal building would be suitable for a pioneers' home.

 Brings Quick Results

The call of Mayor Wentworth last evening in the interes: of the good roads movement met with hearty re- sponse, and c large number of busi- ness meE and citizens interested were present at the city hall.
 Mayor Wentworth was made chair man and Dr. Hughsrt, secretary. The importance of better roads from Tom De- stone to Courtland WAS freely discussed and the sentiment favored the hearty encouragement of the movement. At first it was suggested that A commit tee of three wait upon the board of supervisors to present the claims and urgent necessity for road improve ment between the county seat and the new mining district, but later the spirit of the meeting resolved itself into committee of the whole to call upon the board, and the meet ing adjuurnei en masse to the super visor's chambers. The board mem- bers were overwhelmed by the dele gatiop. and after John Rock had stated the object cf the "demonstra- tion," followed by Attorney Chas Bowman and other citizens, the bosrt was convinced of the justice of tn, request and promptly ordered thu present road, beyond the limits of th' Tombstone road district. put in goo' J condition.
