Co., w. S. Stuges, Candidate for Corporation Commissioner

Pima County Republicans who pride themselves on living in the banner Republican cOun- ty of Arizona. are presenting only one candidate for nomina- tion on the state ticket for the first state election, Hon. w. s. Sturges, whose candidacy for corporation commissioner was announced d fortnight ago, sub- ject to the Republican primary.
 Col. Sturges is one of the best known pioneers of South ern Arizona. He has a large ranch at Buenos. Ayres, in Pi- ma county. His services as President of the Live Stock Sanitary Board during the Bro die administration, are grate" fully remembered by cattlemen all over Arizona. No man is better acquainted with the law e of the range or more loyal to it's tenets.
 With the same determination that he fought joint statehood. he has battled long and earn estly for single statehood and his work at the last national convention of the Republican party in Chicago was a potent factor in obtaining the inser- ton of a statehood, plank in the Republican platform of 1908.
 Col. Sturges has long been a leader in the Republican party in Arizona, serving as national committeeman for the past seven years, but he has never before been a candidate for public flee. During the past six or se' years as National Committeeman has made frequent trips to Washi ton to al din the fight for statehoC
 Col. Sturges was induced to beco candidate for corporation conn sioner because he is one of the pro inent men in Arizona to-day, who not identified with any corporati in fact, he lives sixty miles iron railroad, the nearest corporation his ranch. If he is nominated, there is no question but what he be, he will make a trip through Arizona telling the people fran where he stands n reference to porations.
 Although convinced that Ariz needs capital to develop her vast ural resources, Col. Sturges belle that the corporations should be eff lively regulated in the interest of | the people. He is a firm believer carrying out the mandates of the c stitution in letter and in spirit. square deal for all corporations individuals, rich and poor alike, the platform on which he is maB his race
 Such men as Col Sturges are l indeed and that he will be nomina and elected there is not 6 doubt.

LINEN LUNCHEON SETS
HOW TO MAKE PRETTY CENTER.

Latter-Laee Squares or Ovais
Are Generally Used for
the Mats.

The omission OF a tablecloth for
breakfast and lunch is so general that
no housekeeper can have too many
plate doilies. This is a tip to the girl
who is wondering what she can give

1t is possible with little effort to
make a complete luncheon set, cen
terpiece. plate doilies and tumbler
doilies to match The first should be
twenty-eight or thirty inches In
diameter, the plate doilies nine inches
and the tumbler size FIVE and a half
inches.
Use a good round thread linen of

not care for the coarse crash effects

bleached quality. 1t costs more, but
wears much better.
Both colored and white embroidery
are in good style. but If elaborate
work is to be done the all white set is
more satisfactory, as It stays In style
longer and washes hotter.
Do not attempt more elaborate de-
signs than you can do well. There is
nothing uglier than rough, coarse en-
broidery and simple chain stitch or
brier stitched set is prettier than bad
ly worked satin or eyelet stitch.
A novel effect In arranging rows Of
scallops is to form shallow pyramids,
pointing to the center. This needs
careful measuring and some computa-
ton before any stamping is done.
Arrange the designs for the three
sizes on paper, and trace or take an
impression from that. II takes less
time and is more accurate than to
draw on the design free hand.
A crocheted lunch set IS always in
favor and lovely simple patterns can
be found

But you cant put in anywhere for a

He turned partially about, and
winked at De Nova; the fellow
grinned back at him, but burst in
eagerly:
"Oh, we're not quite so green as all

zis ting plan out jus bout right. We
steam so till we get maybe far 'nough

"You understand what he means,
sir?" went on Tuttle, as the creole
paused for breath. "Once well ahead
we can fall back on canvas, and save

power down there to hold her off an
on by the island while we do the job.
It's mighty nasty bit O. water, an a
sailin' vessel is apt to get pinched in
the ice. But with steamer we can
hold her to it, however the wind
blows"
l looked at the fellow with greater
respect. Evidently he had considered
every angle of the desperate game he
was playing.
"Your scheme certainly sounds rea-
sonable enough" l admitted, almost
reluctantly. "And the chances are
you will get there all right. But sup

this mysterious island; suppose you
find there the galleon as you say; sup
pose you even succeed in getting

you come out of the Antarctic into
any ocean patrolled by the fleets of

That's another reason why we had
to have a steamer" he explained,

l put down the paper, and looked
across at Tuttle; he sat motionless,
his head in his hands. l confess the
tale had affected me strangely, and
could not doubt that the man honestly
believed every word he had uttered.
Yet it was far too marvellous ever to
be true; too impossible; too wildly
romantic. 1t must have been hallu-
cination, an optical illusion born from
a mirage of fog and sun in those
frozen seas. Over 100000 pesos,

innate cowardice plainly apparent yet

with a sarcastic laugh.

The entire situation seemed to un-
roll before me like a panorama as l
stood there, hastily making up my
mind for action. l was afloat on the
high seas, absolutely powerless to re-
sist the set purpose of these men sur
rounding me, all rendered desperate
by greed. Much as l despised Anderson,
l comprehended that his threat was
no idle one; nor did possess a single
comrade on board who would stand
at my back. l was utterly alone; nay,
worse even than alone-with two
women dependent upon me. If out.

He thrust his head out of the win
dow nearest him, looking up and down
the deck; then he leaned across the
table toward me, lowering his voice
until it was little more than whisper.
You get one-fifth, sir; the four of
us here get one-fifth each; the other
fifth is to be divided among the crew.
Amt that fair enough, sir?"
1T would appear so; yet there is
still another matter of some impor-

ADVICE ON MARKING LINEN
Stylish and Effective Method 10 to Dc
the Lettering on Insert
Of Lace.

Napkins, tablecloths, sheets and
oillow cases and table mats are fre-
ouently marked with an insert OF lace,
with the lettering done on that, rather
than worked solidly on the material
itself. This method is stylish and
effective, its one drawback being
rather poor wearing qualities.
Bits Of net or canvas the required
size are lettered, then basted care
fully on the linen. the edge closely
buttonholed IN narrow straight
seam and the material cut away be-
meath. Leave an edge to turn back
and be hemmed to the linen on the
wrong side for greater irmness.
Various lettering is used on these
Inserts. If filet net is chosen, the let
ters are done in the regular flet
stitches. OF cross stitch and darning.
Sometimes heavier canvas is used
and the letters cross stitched In all
white or in two or three tones OF one
color.

Linen ParasoIs.

Now that we seem to have gone in
for everything washable. which spells
freshness as well as expense, thers
has arisen a demand for white linen
parasols. The covers are embroidered
or trimmed with openwork. They can
be fastened to the frame when they
come from the wash without the help
of a professional Some Of them are
lined with orange or emerald green
china silk, but the majority are en-
tirely plain.

Of lace motifs that can be applied to

Another good looking set for one
