MOHAVE VOTERS FOR
 GOOD ROADS BONDS
(From Sundays Daily.)


 Mohave county voiced its appro- val of the issuing of Sl00,000 in bonds for the good roads. in an em- phatic manner early this week, every precinct laundering its ap- proval with practically a unanimous vote.
 Kingman rolled up the banner vote of 95 for and only six against, and the victory was celebrated with quite a demonstration.
 The construction of the roads is already under headway from coun- ty road funds, but in the near fut- ure every line is to be active until the system contemplated is carried out One feature given publicity in the road building program is to reach the lower end of Of the Grand Canyon from Peach Springs, dis tant about sixteen miles from the Santa Fe railroad, when Diamond canyon will be the terminus. This route will afford the tourist the op- portunity of looking into the inn mense gorge from below, while at Fl Tovar to the east the canyon can be viewed from the top. The plan is that of the Mahove supervis-

PHOENIX, Mar 3.-Hardly day passes in the legislature that some point is not raised which requires an interpretation by some authority of some line of the state constitu- ton Saturday the right to make legislation an emergency measure without a vote of two thirds of the senators came up, in connection with the consideration oi Senate bill g, the new registration law. The bill as will be seen originated in the Senate and with an emergency clause which takes it out from under the provisions of the initiative and referendum article of the constitu- tion, and was passed by more than the required two-thirds vote of the Senate, the two thirds vote re- quirement being on account of the emergency clause, and was sent to

 DEATH
tFrom Tuesdays Dailvl

Yesterday afternoon at about 500 o'clock, Mrs. l. L. Smitr, wife of an attache of the s. F. P & P. rail way offices in this city succumbed after an illness of about two months, at her home on East Sheldon street
 Her death has occasioned a shock to her many friends and acquaintance es, as she was well known and en- joyed the esteem of all. Of kind disposition and a generous tempera- ment, she was beloved by the many, and especially so by those with whom she was associated in Chris tian circles in performing so many considerate acts of charity that was her wont during the several years she has been a resident of this city.
 Beside her husband she leaves two young daughters who were with her when the sad summons came. Other near relatives reside in the east The remains are at Ruffner's and will be taken to Chicago for interment.

the House. In the House the bill was amended and passed by the re- quired two thirds and returned to the Senate for concurrence in the House amendments When the ques- ton to concur was up the motion that the Senate concur carried by a vote of ten to seven. Ten votes is not two thirds of the votes of the Senate and the point was raised that the bill had passed but not as an emergency measure. President Cunniff asked that he be given until Monday to rule on the point. An interesting point in connection with the situation is that several bills which were emergency measures were declared to be passed as emer- gency measures under a situation similar to the one now confronting the Senate at the first two sessions.

PHOENIX, Mar. 3.-When Sen ator Roberts of Cochise county made his attack on Hon. c. P. Bullard the Attorney General, in the Senate last Saturday he had something on his mind other than the situation he made public which would tend to reduce his admiration for the law officer Of the state. It will be recalled that Bullard has just been in Bisbee where so many of the Co., chise county voters reside looking after the interests of the state in connection with the examination the Corporation Commission Is making into the water rates of that city. While there Bullard talked about good roads and about bond issues. It is even said he was largely in strumental in having the Bisbee Chamber of Commerce send a peti- ton to the legislature favoring the S1O,000,000 issue for good road pur- poses. Every one in the capitol building knows Senator Roberts is opposed to that suggested bond issue and when the petition from his friends in Bisbee was received in the Senate he moved at once that it be laid on the table.

 There were three of them at the jump off, but when they were round ed up had separated. Freddie Whit taker, an unsophisticated and beard less youth and with only eighteen years to fill his Black Bart or Nick Carter book, was taken into custody on Saturday morning at Seligman- accused of being one of the burg lars that entered the Poulson-Bab- bit store at Ash Fork the night be- fore. His two companions were picked up at and near Williams while they were making a nasty return home, after giving imita- tions of the bad man of other days Whitaker was traced to a doctors office in Seligman where he went to receive medical attention for a bullet wound in his right shoulder, received when the Ash Fork burglary was committed. Harry Poulson, son of one of the proprietors, was asleep in the building at the time, and when the three were helping them selves to various articles, Poulson opened with a fusillade, and Whit taker got some lead into his body He also had the three fingers of his left hand creased with the fly ing bullets, and the gang then took to the open taking in their fright two panes ot the plate glass win dows. Whitaker got away, howev- CT, with fine pair of boots, and these led to his downfall the next day, when he was seen in Seligman equipped with them, and placed un- der arrest by Deputy Sheriff Frank Burnell. His associates are now in the county jail of Coconino county All have admitted to the crimes charged against them, which include burglarizing stores at Albuquerque, Gallup, Holbrook.

COMMISSION DECIDES WHAT
 CONSTITUTES A HOG

News Bureau of the Journal-Ainer, Room
 203, National Bank of Arizona Building.
 PHOENIX, Mar. 1.-The State Tax Commission spent a good many hours settling the question asked by a number of county assessors ot what is a hog?" Chairman Miller, of the commission was inclined to advance the argument that the ques- ton was ridiculous one, and that anybody should know that a hog was a hog. Mir. Zander, advanced the theory that hog in Yavapai county differed somewhat from hog in Cochise county, but he also agreed with the chairman, that all hogs were hogs. Commissioner Howe, 1t seems was the only one of the members who had any expert knowledge of the subject.
 Way back in North Dakota, many years ago the Howe family started raising hogs, and 1t was told on the family in that section, that the Howe hogs became so fat that they lost the use of their legs and had 10 lay around on their body. He insisted that there should be a dif ference between some hogs and other hogs, so 1t was finally agreed that pigs and shoats were not hogs, and so far as taxation was concerned, the only hog subject to listing on a tax roll must weigh two hundred pounds or over In this connection, 1t is of interest to know that last year there was 7,311 such animals in the state and of. this number Maricopa county raised over half
 Opposition to Graham's Bill.

holding a joint session, and urged the legislature to enact the bill which divides Maricopa county and creates the county of Orange. After considerable discussion, it developed that there would be little opposit- ion to the bill, if the district of Tempe and the section immediately surrounding it, was left in Maricopa county. It now seems likely the bill will be amended along this line and if so amended, will in all pro bability pass the House.
 The House is inclined to pass county division bills, having hereto fore passed a bill to create Hunt county, and having considered with favor the bill by Representative Bar ker, to put Hayden and Winkleman, Arizona, from Gila county into Pinal county. The situation in the Senate however, is entirely different, as de veloped today, in connection with the consideration of the two general county divisions bills which are be- fore that branch The Senate does not favor the division of any. county with a specific bill: but 1t seems probable will pass law by which communities may, ii they so desire, detach themselves from their county under this bill as it was amended today Seventy-iive per cent of the voters in the proposed new county and fifteen per cent of the voters in the remaining part of the county sought to be divided must vote for division if it is secured.

Mir Crofoot rose to inquire if near cattle" meant bull moose? Incidentally the bill passed by vote of 2S ayes, , nays.

RAGING WATERS
CAUSE DAMAGE
LEVEE GIVES WAY AT HICKMAN,
KENTUCKY AND FLOODS
THE TOWN.
ALLPERSOhS WERE WARNED
Western Section of the City Is Cow
cred With From Fifteen to Eigh-
teen Feet Of Water.

Hickman, Ky.-As a result OF the
terrific beating of the waves against
the bikes protecting the lower por'
ton of this city, the levee gave way,
the Mississippi poured through the
gap at a mad rate of speed. All per
sons employed in the district had
been warned out earlier in the day,
and no loss of life is reported.
The break will not relieve the riv-
er situation at other points, the wa
ter coming through being turned back
to the main stream by the govern
ment, or Reelfoot levee, two miles
below the town. The section flooded
is occupied by several factories, and
the homes of several hundred work
men.
According to the report, the Reel
foot levee is withstanding the food
in good shape, no bad spots being re-
ported.
The break came at point near
the Mongel Box company's saw mill,
where a blowout occurred under a
concrete wall Within a short time,
the forces watching the levee had cut
the dixie at six other places to equal
ize the spread of the water over West
Hickman.
A large barge carrying machinery
was in the river just outside the point
where the blowout came, and when
the levee broke, carrying away about
fifty feet of the bank, the boat went
through the creyaSSe tearing down a
building on the inside.
The western section of the city is
covered with about fifteen feet of wa
ter. Because of the advance notice
given the residents. the property loss
will be less than last year.
Reports from Columbus, KY, state
that a government quarter boat had
arrived there and that the food ref
ugees have plenty of food and shelter.
