representatives of both factions in

have stated most empnatically that
there never was any serious intent to

movement in that direction originated
in joke, pure and simple.
H. G. Hastings. chairman of the

day: Il know nothing of any serious
movement to oppose Price The Bun
Moose is after bigger game in Georgia
than the commissionership Of agricul-
ture. There never was any movement
to put out a candidate for that Job"
J. St Julien Yates, leader of another
faction in the "Nooses." said today:
There is nothing to the yarn about
opposition to Price-there never was
anything to it. It's silly"
Chairman Harris. OF the state Demo-
cratic committee, is being generally APP
proved fer his decision to enter Price
as candidate for both the fun and the
uneXpired terms as commissioner of
agriculture
Many Democrats feel that Harris is
pursuing an eminently safe and sane
course along that line

to local wholesale milk dealers. At

farmers. and it is feared that within

to supply the trade.
St. Louis dairy firms are not making
butter at present and some of the com
panies are manufacturing their ice

disqualification of Three Degrees ot

FLAGSTAFF, July S.-Three de- grees were exemplified by the Knights of Columbus in Flagstaff Sunday to a large class. This places Flagstaff second in the list of the councils of the state, but one having a larger membership. The degrees were given in manner which elicited praise Tor Grand Knight Edgar A. Brown. DIS trict Deputy Joseph Morgan of Pres cott, and the team they had assisting in the work After the work had been completed a very fine banquet was spread by the ladies of the parish. Postmaster Varcamp was there with his usual wit and called upon num- Der of the prominent knights who were present. Rev Father Vabre, past state chaplain and chaplain of the Flagstaff order at present, delivered an able and interesting address taking as his theme Catholic Education and the Knights of Columbus. He dwelt upon the work done for the educational forces of the country by the knights and told of the work done by the excellent Catholic school in Flagstaff. R. w Kramer of Kansas City. who had charge of the third de- gree work, made an excellent speech on womankind.
 District Deputy Morgan, J. l.. Byrne Jo Corners. and a number of visitors from different parts of the state made brief addresses. A letter was read al the degree work from State Deputy Frank DeSouza expressing his regre at being unable to be present

LEGISLATORS ANYHOW
 MAY HOLD OVER
Opinion of Commiss oner Cole Re-
 garding Election

Of opinions regarding the meaning of the constitutional sections relat- ing to elections there is no end Apparently there are just about as many opinions on the meaning of the constitution as there are persons to express the opinions
 A. w. Cole, who was secretary of the constitutional convention and Is now a member of the board of cor poratiOn commissioners, has an opin- . ion all his own regarding the tenure of legislative officers. Heretofore there has been practical unanimity of opinion that the terms of the mem hers of the first legislature end next January, election or no election It was thought that was one part of the fundamental law about which every body agreed.
 But MT. Cole takes another view He believes that even if no election be held the members of the first legislature will hold over and car legislate just as well after the ex- piration of their expressed terms as before
 In the meantime the election case has not yet reached the supreme court. though it is expected there probably today.

EYES OF TEACHERS
 TURNED THIS WAY
Many Letters from Pedagoeues Re.
 ceived by Superintendent Case.

"One thing is certain. the school teachers of this country have their eyes on Arizona. The number of them who are anxious to come here and take up school work in the new state is truly wonderful" said c. O. Case, superintendent of public in struction yesterday
 And it isn't hard to find the req son for their anxiety" MT. Case con- tinued. The eight months term in our country schools and the good sal aries we will be enabled to pay are proving a most attractive proposi- tion to teachers in other states have received letters from teachers in every state in the union asking about the chances for getting positions here"
 MT Case thinks the time is not far distant when the country schools 1 in this state will be the equal of any 1 in the country anywhere. The appro- priation of $1,O00 for each sub-dis- ! trict and the eight months terms | are the reasons he assigns for the bright outlook One teacher has just written him from Louisiana "We have only four months in the school years here" this teacher wrote, and
 compared with that the Arizona situ ation is certainly attractive" Mir. Case says the school situation
 under the new law is rapidly shaping itself into a satisfactory condition. | There is some complaint, he said
 from Coconino and Greenlee counties, where there are not many schools but i an abundance of taxable property. l These counties. of course, have to help bear the burdens of those which have more school children than money
 and they don't quite like the pros
 pect.
