The supreme court has decided the
case John D. Patty versus Green
lee county affirming the decision of
the lower court which is a victory
for the county. Patty is sheriff
of Greetllee county and when the
county salary law was passed re-
fused to accept of the change made
iii his salary by the board of super
visors and claimed that he was en-
titled to the salary agreed to by the
board prior to the session of the
legislature. The case is also indica-
tive of the decision of the court in
a similar point raised in an appeal
from Maricopa county but in which
matter the county appeals the sher-
if having won in the lower court.
The case of Miami Copper Company
VS.. Cloyde Stroll was also dealt
with in a decision entered today in
which the lower court which had

Company to have suit dismissed

HUNT COUNTY BILL
DOOMED TO DEFEAT

PHOENIX, Mar. 6-yIt is quite ap-
parent the residents of the proposed
new county of Hunt are preparing
to make one grand final stand for
the success of their bill The bill
passed the House on the 10th of
last month and was sent to the
Senate and was referred 10 the Com
mittee on County and County affairs.
That committee took prompt action
on the measure and the bill was
sent to the committee of the Whole
Senate When it was reached on
the calendar the question was raised
as to the constitutionality of the
proposed act and the bill was re-
committed to the Committee on Jud-
iciary. Then Hunt county advocates
felt positive that their bill was be-
ing delayed purposely and word
was sent out to the residents OF
Williams and vicinity to come to
Phoenix and work if the new county
was to be realized at this session.
Consequently, there is a strong Hunt
county lobby in Phoenix, but whether
they will succeed in having the SEN
ate pass their bill is, OF course,
question of doubt Senator Breen
who is leading the fight against the
bill in the Senate, says if the bill
ever comes to a final vote it will
be defeated and with more than
four votes to spare.

its passage and its approval by the
Governor, and is hereby exempt from
the operation of the Referendum pro-
vision of the State Constitution.
PHOENIX, Mar. OF is now
thought to be likely that the pre-
sent session will be able to conclude
it work during the next thirty days
or in the time which remains for
which members are under the law
permitted to draw pay. The House
has had under consideration for
several days the penal code and
under the floor leadership of Chair
man Jacobs of Maricopa county
good progress has been made. In
this connection it will be of interest
to know that much of the new law
which is being adopted is taken
from California and few entirely new
sections have been adopted.
1t now seems probably that there
will be no legislation at this session
which will establish a minimum wage
scale. The Governors call included
a request that such a measure be
passed but such was included at
the urgent request of the State Fed
Grafton of Labor. The bill was then
in the House by Repre-
sentative Lewis of ella county who
had his doubts as to the constitu-
of the act and referred the
bill to Attorney General Billiard
for an opinion. That official has
rendered an opinion to. the effect
that the bill minimum wage) is
unconstitutional on the ground that
It interferes with the constitutional
right to contract In the face of
this the labor committee will re-
turn the bill to the House with
the opinion of the law officers of
the state and no doubt the bill will

The eight hour labor bill affect

limited the hours to forty-eight hours
a week in any one week but an

fifty-six hours a week. 1t now
seems doubtful however that the
bill will pass the House with the
protests which have been
lodged against its enactment.

NORTH CAROLINA PRODU.
 CES MOST MICA.

For many years North Caro- lima has been the largest produ- cer of mica in the United States according to the United States Geological Survey. Prior to 1895 the output came chiefly from the larger mines and con- sisted of big sheets of fine uual- ity. At that time large quan- titles of small sheet mica that would cut plates less than 3 in cheS square were thrown on the small sheet and scrap mica be- came valuable, the dumps at the large mines were worked over and the quantity of mica pro- duced was thereby greatly in- creased. Now that most of the dumps have been worked over and only a few large mines are
 in operation, the output is bare ly maintained by a large mum
 Der of small mines and pros poets, probably as many as a hundred. Many of these are worked by the mountaineer far mer and miner at times when crops are laid by, and occasion ally one of the prospects devel- ops into a large deposit.

STATES REV NIUE
 FUND IS EXHAUSTED
Several Thousand Dollars are out in Unpaid Warrants and Expenses are Near
 ly S100,000 a Month.

Little Rock, Sept. 10.-Once more, after a few months on a cash basis, the general revenue fund of the State Treasury is exhausted. There has been no money in it since a week ago Saturday, and the prospects for there being any for several months are very remote.
 There are already several thousand dollars out in unpaid warrants, and current expenses of the state and it's institutions are amounting to nearly S100,- 900 a month. Many of the banks are disposed to look as- kance upon the carrying of the warrants, even at a heavy dis count, and the charitable insi- tutions are especially in desper- ate strates, or will be soon.
 The first revenue of conse- quence will be the insurance taxes amounting to about $100,- 900, due March 1, but by that time the state will be in debt fully half a million dollars. Aside from these, the Secreta- ry of State pays in fees amount ing to about $2500 a month. Or dinarly, liquor licenses begin to come in soon after Jan.1, but this is a very uncertain quan- tity for 1914, as no one knows whether there will be any sa- looms in the state next year.
 There will be an increase in the taxes derived from the gen eral levy next year, as the Leg islature increased the levy half a mill, and the assessment will be considerably heavier. Un- der the new law, the Auditor may call upon the Collectors for advance payments previous to settlement, and that will tide the treasury over next spring.
 In the meantime, however, conditions are serious. There has even been some discussion of calling an extra session of the Legislature to handle the fi- nancial problem, but Gov. Hays is not disposed to look upon it with favor.
 q feel that possibly th e money could be borrowed from the state capitol fund, about $450,000," said Gov. Hays, thereby saving the necessity of purchasing supplies for the in- stitutions on credit and paying eXhorbitant prices for them, and discounting warrants for the salaries of the officers and employees, Ii would be a great saving to the state, and in the meantime the capitol would not deteriorate. That money would carry us over until next years revenues ccome in, we could start on a cash basis once more, and in three years time feel certain we could pay back the money to the capitol fund and proceed with the completion of the building.

Such a change would prevent killing

also would prevent successful operation
