The above would lead readers TO be.
lieye that The Herald was paid $3.50
for ballots by Charlton and Logan,
when in fact, they paid The
Herald that amount nor did The Her
aid put in a bid for ballots for that
amount or any other sum. Further,
the commissioners records will not
show when The Herald was ever paid
within Sl25 of what the Democrat
was paid for ballots for the election
of 1908. Being presidential election,
ballots are more expensive than for
county and state elections. However
The Herald would have printed them
for 1926, had they been given an op-
portunity.

BOUNDARIES
 DESIGNATED City Divided Into Four Fire
 Districts ALARM SYSTEM 10 SUIT
In the Event of Conflagra- gation Fire Fighters Will Not Become Uncertain As to the Portion of City Where Service s Are Re quired

Councilman Bracket who is in charge of the local fire department has districted the city which is of the greatest importance to the res ident in interpreting the sounding of an alarm at the time of a fire. II is necessary that the residents as well as the firemen keep in mind the districting given below as well as the signals given by the alarm which will signify in just what portion of the town the conflagrdtion is taking place.
 The division is as follows: All that portion of the city west of Macdonald and south of Main street is to be known as district number three or for instance any fire occur ing within the city limits that would be included in a straight line drawn directly west of the Mesa City Bank corner and directly south of the Mesa City Bank corner would be in district number three. District mum ber four will be known as that DOT ton of the city north of Main street and west of Macdonald or if a line drawn west of the Salt River Valley Bank corner and another north Of the same corner to the city limits would include all the territory mum Der four. All that portion of the city north of Main street and east of Macdonald street or in other words that one-fourth of the town in which Barnetts drugstore is located will be known as number five. District mum Der six. will include all that portion of the town south of Main street and east of Macdonald and will be bound ed by a line drawn south from Grow CTS corner and d line drawn east from the same corner to the city limits
 The districting of the city as above outlined will be announced by the fire gong immediately after the giv ing Of the general alarm. For in stance if fire breaks out in the northwest part of the city a general alarm will be rang and then the bell will sound four taps which will in dicate the location of the fire. It is system adopted along metropolitan lines and is one that will expedite matters in the handling of conflag ration Angus Gillispie has been se- lected to ring the bell but of course in the event that he is not on duty at the proper time some one who is in a position to reach the alarm sooner will look after the sounding of the alarm.

ITEMS FROM
 THE NORMAL All in Readiness For Open-
 ing on the l2th GOOD ATTENDANCE EXPECTED Library Enlarged By Addi- tion of Another Room. Faculty Members Heard From Other Notes of Interest
GOOD ATTENDANCE EXPECTED

In case of an emergency. President | Matthews of the normal can aIwavs
 be depended upon for the material for good story and just such an emergency arose yesterday The fol- lowing is the result, being a few in teresting items regarding people and things at the normal.
 Within the past few weeks one of the greatest improvements in the school has been made. For several years the library and reading room has occupied one of the class rooms. The quarters were always small and crowded but no more room could then be spared. Cutting up the old audi torlum into class rooms has made it possible to extend the library and the partition between it and the class room on the west has been removed. The result is a spacious library and reading room about thirty by sixty feet. It is comfortably equipped with chairs and study tables while the cases that were formerly used have been transformed into wall cases. The normal makes it point to take all of the higher class magazines and pub ications and there is no reason why students of the school. all of whom have already access to the library, should not be we'll posted on current events.
 During the past few days President Matthews has heard from d number of the members of the faculty who are spending the summer outside of the territory. Professor FrizzeH writes from Pasadena thta he is hay ing a splendid time and will be back next week. Professor Anderson has been in Los Angeles all summer He writes that he, too, has been enjoying the summer and will return in a short time. Professor Irish is now in Du- buque, Iowa. He writes President Matthews that he has concluded to ship to Tempe his collection of bo- tanical and geological specimens and donate them to the normal musuem. The collection is a very complete one and will be a distinct addition to the museum.
 The outlook for a large attendance at the school this winter is better than usual. says the president He is receiving applications daily and has iteiSOh bp btAitNt Nllol Nilt dlltHUdiCt this year will exceed that of a year ago.
 President Matthews wishes atten- tion again called to the fact that there are a number of young ladies who wish to attend the normal this winter and who wish to secure places in private families where they may work for their board and room. Any one who desires some such an arrange ment as this made should not hesitate to call upon the president for parti- Culars
 There are also a number of younger children between the ages of ten and thirteen who wish to attend the train ing school but who are below dormi- tory age. They would like to secure board and room with private families for the winter.

Standard Oil Case.

Washington, April 1.-THE Suprem,
Court of the United States reassigned fol
argument the case of the United State,
against the American Tobacco Com
pany and the Standard Oil Company
The argument OF these cases comes a:
the direct result Of the death OF Justice
Brewer Owingto Justice Moody's i'll
ness, only seven justices we're left tc
give decision.
How the court stood in these cases is
still unknown, but it is believed the
court was so evenly divided that it was
loath to give the country decision not
supported by majority Of full court,
which would be five members.
OTHER DECISIONS SOON.
The fact that the corporation tax cases
were not set for reargument is taken to
mean that decision will be announced
on them soon.
The re-assignment Of the big suits
came as a complete SURPRISE and Attor-
ney-General Wickersham was as much
surprised as anyone. He expressed his
utter ignorance of any further knowl-
edge of the action of the court other
than the bare announcement of its de-
cision.
Unless motion to advance the cases
Is made, they will not come up in the
regular order Of busines; for nearly
year. Only three more weeks of this
term remain for hearing the argument
of cases.
The choice of the successor of Justice
Brewer may be made more difficult on
account Of to-day's complication.
BARS TWO JUDGES.
Today's action is generally admitted
to put Judges Sanborn and Vandeven-
ter, who have already passed on the
Oil cases, out Of the class OF
and raises a question as to
the propriety Of Solicitor-General Bow
ers eligibility for the supreme bench.
Rumors of how the court stood on
The big cases were heard about the cap
itol all afternoon. These we're based in
all instances on the record Of the mem
bers of the court, particularly in the
Northern Securities case. Justices Har-
AN, McKenna, and Day were of the ma
ority that ordered the dissolution Of the
Northern securities Company. Chief
Justice Fuller and Justices White and
Holmes were opposed to the action
