YAVAPAI ENTERS
 INTO THE AUTO COLUMN (From Wednesdays Daily.)

Almost the last laggard of Arizona counties, Yavapai joined the ranks of the progressives yesterday, when the Board of Supervisors bought six cylinder. fifty horsepower Hudson automobile It will be run exclusive ly on county business.
 During the past year, it is estimat- ed that the county paid over $l50 a month for auto hire, in connection with road and other inspection trips and many important undertakings have been sighted, due to the lack of quick transportation facilities.
 Yavapai county already has more miles of good roads than any of the other Arizona subdivisions, many of which have had officially owned au- tos for several years. With a terri tory as large as New Jersey, many of the most important camps and settlements have heretofore seemed too isolated to warrant visits by the Board, but with the Hudson always at command, the Supervisors can jump in and get at existing condit- ions all over the county, without un- due delay.
 The cost of the auto will be charg- ed to general expense fund and Supervisors Stephens and Heap said yesterday that they expect the car will pay for itself within a year in added economy and efficiency. AL though the "whiz-wagon" has only been used for few days in demon stration, the Board were able to buy it at a considerable reduction.

WHAT SAVED
 HER LIFE
Mrs. Martin Tells About a Painful Experience that Might Have
 Ended Seriously.

Aivesville, W. Va.-Mrs Dora Martin, in . letter from RIvesville, writes: For three years, suffered with wo- manly troubles. and had pains in my back and side. I was nervous and could not sleep at night.
 The doctor could not help me. He said would have to be operated on be- fore could get better. I thought would try using Cardui.
 Now, am entirely well.
 am sure Cardui saved my life. l will never be without Cardui in my home. I recommend 1t to my friends
 For fifty years, Cardui has been re- lieving pain and distress caused by wo- manly trouble. It will surely help you.
 It goes to the spot-reaches the trouble-relieves the symptoms, and drives away the cause.
 If you suffer from any symptoms of womanly trouble, take Cardui.

PETTY POLITICS BY : YAVAPAI SENATOR'S
Homer Wood in Unenviable Position Of Killing Road Bonds Bill Because
 Of Dislike of LinneY.

feet" can get no action unless. under a ruling from President Cunniff, the unanimous vote of the Senate agrees to withdraw the action and agree that the bill be voted upon. Com munications passed between the two houses yesterday on the subject and finally a joint committee met to discuss the matter. President Gun niff then told the committee that he would wire every member of the Senate. asking if he would be will ling that vote be taken on the bill. This was done, and the final action will not be known until the wires are answered. Feeling, how ever. that this is scarcely enough, additional wires have been sent out by other members asking for the return of all House and Senate mem bers, so that tomorrow will see two full houses aoain here.
 There Is no immediate danger of the Linney bill costing the state any money for four years, yet a delay in action on the bill will prohibit action for six years, as the provisions are that after the amendment is approv- ed, it cannot be at the earliest until the next election following that a bond issue can be voted upon. Under the provisions, also, the bond issues are limited in total to per cent of the total taxable valuation of the state.
 Messages were sent out last night to all parts of the State, asking for support from the believers in good roads and industrial pursuits to rally 10 the support of the measure and bring all sorts of pressure to bear upon the unwilling senators to cease the statement, "I object" when the matter is called for, even if they are not willing to vote for the bill.
 Among the interesting statements that were made in connection with the action last night was that the very persons who were making the T object" act as a throttle upon the life of the bill were the most promi- nent among those who loudly declar- ed that no measure in the Arizona legislature should die in committee, but that all should be brought out on the floor of the houses for full discussion and should be killed in open meeting.
