LIclT STILL, Afford APPEARED
BEFORE UNITED STATES COM.
MISSIONER YESTERDAY AND
TRIAL Is SET FOR FRIDAY.

Henry Afford, the man who, until he
visited Pensacola In charge Of United
States officials, on the charge OF op-
Grating an Illicit still, had never laid
eyes on a street car or a locomotive
engine, was brought before United
States Commissioner Meyer yesterday
afternoon for a preliminary hearing.
Commissioner Meyer set the date for
his trial September IA.
It will be remembered that United
States Deputy Marshal Quill McNair
several days ago captured the man at
ter two days effort in the woods
twelve miles to the south OF Milligan,
in the Yellow river swamp. Until he
was placed on the train at Milligan
and brought to Pensacola, Afford says
that he never before saw a railroad.
On his arrival at Pensacola he was
amazed at the glare of the electric
lights and the buzz of the automobiles
and the street cars.
The man was sought after on pre-
vious occasions by revenue officers and

western lard Is selling at a fraction
more than cents as against more than
IL cents in September 1910 and butter
and eggs are both comparatively rea-
sonable and a few cents cheaper retail
than in last September.
Flour of good quality is selling at
lowest retail prices, at 1896 a barrel,
the same price that prevailed at this
time last year, and bacon may be had
at some stores for 20 cents a pound as
against % and 25<cents year ago.
The average family" steak costs
about % cents a pound as II did last
year, though experts say that with all
feeding crops short, it is not unlikely
that beef will go higher as the winter
progresses.
The cost of poultry Will be largely
determined by cold storage holdings.
Indications are that the shortage Of
potatoes is serious, not only in this
country but IN Great Britain and Ger
many. In the fall of last year one
could buy good potatoes in the field at
SIS cents a bushel; today the prices
range from rs cents to more than
dollar. Canned peas, beans and toma-
toes also will be higher but rice re-
mains cheap and unless there is
marked advance in pork It is argued
that the man Of slender means can pro-
vide for his family without serious
strain.

WILL JUSTICES OF
 TIE PEACE HOLOOVER?
Kirk Says They Will, While Another Authority Says
 They VII! Not

An interesting question has been dug up by Assistant Secretary K. A. Kirk of the late constitutional conven- ton for the election of justices Of the peace and constables. If this is true, as many confidently assert. these be news indeed, as Bin Shakespeare said in as good a grade Of grammar as was produced in those days.
 If NIT. Kirk is correct it means that the precinct officers elected in 1908 will hold their positions in the event statehood is granted until the first legislature of the new state makes provision for their election. As the first general election after the first meeting of the legislature will not occur until 1912, the present en- cumbents will remain in office until January 1, 1913.
 The news-if 1t be truly news-was a topic Of conversation in the courts and among the officers yesterday, it being classed without comment, in the interesting if true stegory.
 Are County Officers.
 The question was put up to 8 man who is an authority on the constitu tion and he cites those who are in terested to section No. 22 of the en abling act. which reads as follows:
 Section 22.-And if congress and the president approve said constitu ton and the said separate provisions thereof. if any. or if the president ap proves the same and congress fails to disapprove the same during the next regular session thereof, then and iT that event the president shall certify said facts to the governor Of Arizona who shall, within 30 days after the re ceipt of said notification from the president of the United States, issue his proclamation for the election oi the state and county officers, the mem bers of the state legislature, and rep reseutatives in congress and all Othel officers provided for in said constitu ton. all as hereinafter provided: saiC election to take place not earlier thar sixty days nor later than ninety dayi after said proclamation by the gov ernor of Arizona ordering the same

 The Tamarack No. 5 team came in second wi;h a mark Of ffty-four and seven-eights while the Calumet & Hecla team was third with foTty-nine and one-eighth inches.
 The Butte team won more by per feet team work and science than by mere strength. Not once during the entire fifteen minutes did they miss a stroke. while they showed great skill in changing their drills and hand ling the hammers. The Baltic team was the first 10 drill, but after they had drilled about thirteen minutes, it was found that one of their drills had broken of and they were put out oi the running.
