petition must contain the name and ad- dress of the candidate. the name of the party Of which he desires to become a candidate, unless he desires to run on a non- partisan ticket, when that fact shall be stated. All petitions of candi dates for members of the legislature, superior judges and for county and precinct officers shall be filed with the clerk of the board of supervisors. Can didates for state offices shall file their petitions with the secretary of state. Candidates shall also file nomination papers which shall contain a declara- ton of party faith and several other matters.
 Nomination papers shall be signed as follows:
 If for a candidate for presidential elector, United States senator, repre- sentative in congress, or of any state office. except members of the legisla- ture and superior court judges, by one per cent of the qualified voters in the party in at least three counties of the state: but the number must be not less than one per cent nor more than ID per cent of the total vote of his party | in the state.
 i If for a candidate for a county office, member of the legislature. or superior court judge by at least three per cent 1 of the party vote in each county but not more than 10 per cent of the total vote of the party in such county The basis in each case shall be the vote for l governor at the next preceding election 1 Any political party which at the next preceding election shall have cast five per cent or more of the total vote shall be entitled to a place on the official l ballot.
 Sample ballots shall be prepared on 1 which the names of the candidates shall be alphabetically arranged. At all primaries there shall be sep arate tickets for all the parties and each party ballot shall be designated only by the name of the party.
 The law also provides for what is called the rotary ballot, the object of
 which is to prevent any candidate from
 receiving an advantage by having a favored ,lace upon the ticket ballots.
 It is further provided that the pri- ; mary election shall be held, the voters l shall vote. the method of voting shall l be followed the votes counted and can ! vassed, and the returns made with the same formality as in the case of gen eral elections.
 Thre ;s also a provision that candi- l dates shall publish their campaign eX- penses, the provision in this regard be-
 ing much the same as in general elec- 1 tions.
 There are also various other provis- ions dealing with the duties of election officers and with the amount of money
 the candidates for the various offices
 may legally eXpend. The law in genera l seems as elaborate as it is possible tC
 make it: and if anything was omitted l it was evidently due to an oversight

SANTA CRUZ HOLDS MC' ElWA|N CASE
Failure of Mandamus Proceedings tc
 Move 1t to Santa Cruz.

The McEIWain mandamus proceed
 ing in which it was sought to re-
 move the jurisdiction from the Pima
 county court to the court of Santa Cruz county. has been decided by the supreme court against the reator.
 So the estate. said to involve prop erty to the value Of $1,000.000, will be settled in the county first named. There were a number of compli-
 cations in this proceeding, the orig inal administrator having died and the Southern Arizona Banking and Trust company having then been named by the court. As some of the property belonging to the estate is said to be located in both Santa 1 Cruz and Pima counties that was one of the grounds on which the change was sought. The court, how ever, found there was no substan- tial ground on which to found the proceeding and refused to order the 1 change The estate has been in the , courts for settlement for the past | several years.

PAWN TICKETS OFTEN TRAPS
"keave 'Em Lay" if You Find Them
 on the Sidewalk.

While walking through one of the prominent streets the other day. said an innocent looking individual, 1 es- pied an important looking piece of paper on the sidewalk and picking it up found it to be a pawn ticket for d diamond scarfpin, which some careless person had apparently drop ped.
 According to the ticket the pin had been pledged several weeks be- fore for $15. How am I to find the Howner? thought I. Shall I take it to the pawnbroker? Perhaps if I do the owner will never see it anyway. The pin must surely be good one and doubtless worth three times the amount< for which it was pledged Why not appropriate 1t for my own user"
 The name on the ticket was Brown and my conscience was re- lieved when I found several hundred of that name in the directory. soon made up my mind and started for the brokers office. I asked to see the pin before redeeming it. stat ing that I had bought the ticket. and upon the payment of twenty five cents was allowed to examine it.

said registering officer This test has already been described
 The remainder of the law relates to the duties of the various officials hay ing to do with the registering of cleo tors, the conduct of challenges and similar matters. The foregoing, it will be noted is rough draft of the regis tration -aw and will give the elector an idea of the most import of his duties in preparing to cast his ballot
 The primary law is much longer than the registration law and only a few of the moro important of it's provisions can be nCted. Tn the first place it pro- Vides that the primary shall be held on the eighth Tuesday prior to the cleo tion, and that the various political par ties may have the names of their can dijates placed on the ballots. The can didateS to be voted for include all elective and advisorily elective candi- dates. There is also provision made for holding primaries to fill vacancies. These nominations, however, may be made by delegate convention if the attorney general and the secretary of
 
 for holding a primary in the manner prescribed for the regular primaries. At least sixty days before the date of holding any primary election the secretary of state shall prepare and transmit to the boards of supervisors a
 notice that such primary is to be held. l Then the clerks of the boards of super Visors shall publish so much of this notice as may be necessary, which shah give, among other information, | the date of the primary.
 Also, the county sheriffs shall cause | to be posted notices of the primary, , giving the time and place where the voting is to be done. All these notices must state that the nominations of l officers 3v the various political parties i are to DC made.
 Any person desiring to become can ' didate at a primary election shall, if he desires to have his name printed on the | official ballot, not less than 20 nor more than SO days before such pri-
 mary, file a nominating petition. This

CHILE TO LEASE ITS RAILROADS
Lines are Causing Immense Deficits
 in National Treasury

If the Chilean government decides
 to accept one of the proposals re-
 gently put forward by financierS and
 promoters of various nationalities, to
 lease the state railroads, it will do so
 with the hope of solving the puzzle
 of running those railroads profitably or at least without the enormous def
 icits they have hitherto caused the national treasury.
 What this would mean to Chile is seen from the circumstance that these accumulated railroad deficits are recognized to be at the bottom of
 the financial difficulties in which the country finds itself. But it would also mean a great deal to South America, to the Panama canal and iC builders, nd indeed, to the traffic
 of the world. hanks to it's geograp ph | icaI position, Chile commands Argen- | tina's access to the Pacific if we l except the Straits of Magellan, a pas sage that is destined to become large 1 lv obsolete through the opening of the canal.
 It would be quite impossible to 1 overstate the importance of this new relationship between the two neigh bors and one time foes which the | Panama canal will bring about. for no matter what developments may take place on the Atlantic side of South America the Argentine Re | public is bound to turn about and | face. to a large extent. toward the

RED TAPE IN ACTION
American has Narrowing Experience
 in London

An American, in visiting the Lon don pOstOffice, observed that the newspaper box had a large mouth, and with the curiosity of the aver age American tourist he stood gazing into it. Suddenly a bale of news papers struck him and he fell into the box.
 His companions hurried to the counters to rescue him, but owing to the red tape of the English post office the clerks disregarded their appeals. The American was in the mail box and would have to be treated as mail matter. They there fore stamped him and threw him into a compartment containing provincial newspapers.
 The unfortunate mans friends thereupon went to the chief, who lis tened phlegmatically to their story then asked if their friend was ad- dressed. On being informed that he l was not, the chief said:
 "The matter is simple The mar 1 will remain for six months in thu | bureau. At the end of that time, i no one applies for him. he will b' | burnt as a dead letter."

The policy of providing for Ger
