OF INTERSTATE
FAIR OF 1911
r. J. MARSHALL, WHO Is RECOG-
NIzED AS AUTHORITY ON THIS
SUBJECT THROUGHOUT AMER
IcA. NOTES MARVELLOUS I'M
PROVEMENTS MADE IN THIS
DEPARTMENT HERE.

Some idea of the gains made by the
Pensacola Interstate Fair since its or
ganization and of the wonderful i'm
provements noted by those who know,
may be gained from the opinion of
Judge F. ]. Marshall. one of the best
known and most highly celebrated
general poultry judges In the world,
who has judged the birds at this fair
each year since the organization.
What is true of the poultry depart
ment is true of the other departments,
and General Manager Lillard is of the
opinion that the fair this year will far
surpass any of the former events.
Judge Marshall is recognized
throughout America as authority en-
birds and has been judge of the poul-
try department at practically every
leading poultry show or fair in the
United States. Referring to his last
visit to Pensacola. during the fair Of
1911, in an article in a recent issue Of
the Southern Ruraliist, he expresses
himself as follows:
Pensacola, Fla, followed close upon
the heels Of Augusta, finishing up the
week, where we found q mighty nice
exhibit. This was our third successive
year here and we were In a good posi-
ton to note the changes as they &C.
CURED. The first being also the first
year of the fair, We had about $50
fowls to judge, composed Of a good
many odds and ends. The next we saw
about double the exhibit, or 425 birds.
The past season we could hardly ex-
pect such doubling of the numbers,
but we did, as there were over 500
fowls and of a much better quality
than either former year, with many

Arizona Getting Fees

The new State registration law of Arizona is now in effect. Under it's provisions every owner of a motor vehicle must register each machine in the office of the Secretary of State. A complete description of each car, including the name of the make, factory number, style and motor power, must be given.
 The registration fee is $5 for a machine of forty-horse power or less, A. L. A. M. rating.
 The motorcycle tax is placedIat $2. The law does away with city numbers. which have heretofore bern the source of much con- fusion.

Senator Bristow, of Kansas, has introduced } bill providing for a primary to elect all post. masters where the salary is above $500 a year. Our farmers, butch CTS, bakers and bankers should also be chosen the same way, but there should be recall at tachment to the law.
 One of the amusing features of the contention of our desert brethren that the Ocean-to- Ocean route should go south, is that it is a year round route. It is amazing how easy they can forget the strip of road from Springerville south over the Mo gollon mountains, where most tourists who have tried it even in the summer found it practically impossible on account of the grades and rough country. The road would be impossible in the winter for fifty miles or more, aside from the fact that it is a wild country sparsely inhab- ited where it would be hard to get help or any accommodations.
 In ruling against Arizonians, the Santa Fe railroad conven- iently forgets that the govern ment very generously gave them every alternate section of land in a strip 40 miles wide all the way through Arizona. It may be that some of the stock holders received some of the profits, maybe not, maybe the Santa Fe's reason for not desir- ing to accommodate the people of Arizona is because the whole state was not turned over to 'em.

TAX COMMISSION
 REVISING LAWS

Arizona's tax laws are being completely revised by the state tax commission. The members of the commission are spending most of their time now drawing the laws in the form they believe they should be passed by the legislature.
 Prior to the passage of the taxation amendment to the con- stitution, providing that meth ods of taxation should be as pre- scribed by law, it was not possi- ble to change the statutes cover ing the subject. Since the amend ment was passed the commits sioners have begun the process of revision. They do not expect that the legislature will pass the laws exactly as they present them, but tI cir recommendations will give the lawmakers a sub stantial basis upon which to work.
 The commissioners do not con- template making any radical changes in the laws as they stand. Most of their work is to correct miner errors. For one thing, the laws now provide that the tax commission and the coun- ty boards of supervisors shall take action on the same day re- garding certain matters. There is no time for the tax commits sion to communicate it's action to the supervisors before the super visors must act.
 In addition to the question of time there are other matters that need attention. When the re- vised laws are complete they will have about the same effect as those now in effect were in- tended to have when they were drawn. Phoenix Gazette.
