J. w. Sullivan, who returned from Southern Arizona reports that Thursday nights storm was heaviest between Hot Springs Junction and Beardslcy, and the amount of rain fall during the night was estimated at from four to five inches. Never before in the history of the country was such a storm known, which fact was verified by the country being inundated as far as the eye could reach. MT. Sullivan stated that the desert was transformed into an in- land sea and the sight was a fascinating one, only the tops of the underbrush growth being dis ccrnible. The zone of the storm was about twenty miles in width and travelled from east to west.

MUST FORM NEW DISTRICTS NEXT
 MONTH

PHOENIX. Ariz. July 2o-Under
 House Bill i39. which passed the regular session of the Legislature this spring 1t is made the duty of the boards of supervisors in the several counties of the state on the first Monday in September of this year to redictrict their counties into judicial districts. The bill further provides that the old judicial pre- eincts shall give way to the new ones on the first day of January, 1913. and that all the present pre- cincfs officers shall go out of office on that date. So, it would seem. under the provisions of this bill. there IS no chance for any of the present precinct officers to continue to hold their offices after the end of this year by virtue of there being no election this year. As there is to be no election for these officers the vacancies will have to be filled by the boards of supervisors throughout the state.

GRAHAM DEFENDS MINERS LIEN
 MEASURE
Cochise Legislator Says The Law is Right
 And Just

DOUGLAS, Ariz, July D.--Billy Graham. of Lowell, who was one of the prominent members of the Legislature from this county, passed through the city. returning home from vacation trip of three weeks, having been on trip to the state of Colorado and going as far east as Kansas City Mir. Graham's at tention was called to the fact that there were number in Arizona who had announced their intention to annul the miners lien law through the means of the referendum.
 This measure was bitterly op- posed by some of the members of the Senate and House when it was pending. said Mir. Graham. but not withstanding this opposition was able to get 1t through and the gov ernor signed 1t. am not opposed to it's submission to the vote of the people. but feel confident that it will be sustained by every man who believes that the miner should have the same protection in the matter of security for his wages that other workmen have. I believe that the miner should have a lien on the mine for his wages. just as the carpenter has lien on the house he builds for his wages. There is no difference in the two proposi- tions. It is simply a matter of guaranteeing the wage of the miner. just as the wages of the carpenter who works on building is guar anteed."
 MT. Graham stated that he lost the hardest fight he made in the Legislature. but that he would re- new it at the next session # he is given an opportunity to do SO. That was the defeat of the measure which he introduced and passed through the House submitting an amend ment to the constitution which would forbid forever the sale of any of the school lands of the state.

BOSTON, GA, TO BE
"HIGHBROW" TOWN;
TO BUILD ALIBRARY

TOWNSVILLE. GA. Dec. 23.-Bos-
ton, in Thomas county. is to have a
Carnegie library, and it will probably
be the smallest town in the state to
boast Of such an institution The mayor
of Boston has been notified by the Car
negie Corporation Company that $4,000
has been donated for this purpose and
as soon as the plans and Specifications
for the building and approved the mon
ey will be available
1t is to the women OF the Twentieth
Century club that the town is indebted
for this valuable institution. About a
year ago Mrs. .. 4. Hopper, president
of the club, asked Mayor Blanton TO
take up the matter of the library with
Mr.. Carnegie, which he did. though not
with much hope OF success, as it was
feared that Boston was too small a town
to receive a donation for such pur-
pose. A favorable hearing was OBJ
tanned from the philanthropist, how
ever, and the result is that Boston is
assured of having a library at an
early date. The town council has guar
anteed $50 q year to maintain it and
the women have secured and paid for
a site upon which to build it.

had not been paid by state officials to

q do not wish the impression TO go
abroad that the board has not done all
it could do said Dr. Harris I was
called up Sunday night a week ago, by
Dr.. H. F. Bent, Of Midwife. who asked
if we could supply him anti-toNin. say
ing he had five or six cases, with fatal
results in most of them. / took all we
had in the laboratory and mailed it at
the postoffice that night
Il heard nothing more until Wednes-
day, when Dr.. Bent telephoned for
more serum. He asked If the board
could not send down physician to
take charge He was told that serum
would be furnished freely, but the linn
tied appropriation for the board would
not permit the expense, of hiring ply
stefan to go to the scene. It was shown
Dr. Bent that it was not the policy of
the board 70 take charge of patients and
assist in their treatment, partly because
Of lack Of funds and partly because We
did not believe it Just 10 physicians to
send some one paid by the state to take
charge Of their private practice.
Or. Bent was shown that there WIS
absolutely nothing to be done in ar.
epidemic such as he described except
keep the patients isolated and admin
lister anti-toxin. The presence of an
other doctor could not, be of value in
treating the three or four patients who
have had the disease since the board
was notified, and certainly the board
could not employ nurses and guards to
treat and quarantine people
AS the situation stands. the only
thing that remains for the board to do
within its legitimate purview would be
to quarantine Burke county and to cut
it off from communication with the
outside world"
