Records Show Southpaws Have Little Luck Against Athletics - Rube Mar quard May Prove Incf- fective in Big Series

Beware, Richard Marquard. That's the signal for the Rube in the com ing worlds championship clashes Co. have played havoc with the side Wheelers in the American league this campaign and Marquard's win ming from them in the big games is none too certain
 Because Marquard is not the best southpaw in the league Last year he looked like a wonder. because he won nineteen straight at the start of the season, but he was favored with much luck
 American Southpaws Clever
 The American has southpaws just as good if not better They arc Vean Gregg of the Naps. Tex Rus sell of the White Sox Earl HamiI- ton of the Browns and Ray Collins of the Red Sox.
 Every one of these has failed against Connie Mack's charges Rus sell and Hamilton. two of the best left handlers in the Ban Johnson cir cuit have proven the easiest for the coming American league champions, as no one expects the Maps or any oNiitl Nlbp lO fJtdl lIcIIl out or the pennant. Five contests have been won from each.
 Swell Job Beating Russell
 Winning five battles from Lefty Russell. the star yOungster of the White Sox. is quite an achievement for any club. Russell has been beat ing all other teams in the league with great regularity. but he just cannot beat the White Elephants He has faced them six times this campaign and has been returned the winner only once
 Earl Hamilton of the Browns has lost II games this season, and five of them have been to the leaders. Ham has failed to chalk up a win against Connie Macks men
 During the campaign. the Mack CTS have been called upon to face southpaw thirty seven games and tWenty-nine times have they beaten them, while only eight contests .have been grabbed from the men who let fly with the left wing. That's a winning percentage of .7S4 against left handlers. far better than the one made against the right handlers, which is 5637, .602.
 Beware, lawn McGraw
 So, beware, Rube Marquard and Johnny McGraW If the Giants lead CT hopes to down Connie Mack s charges in the worlds series. he probably will have to rely on Matty. Tesreau and Demaree, his right handlers The Athletics beat Mar quard in 1911, and they are apt to do it again.

"a Li.tie Bird Told Me So"

The popular expression, "A little
bird told me So" used to convey the
idea that by telling you would betray
your informant, but is probably adapt
ed from the twentieth verse Of the
tenth chapter of Ecclesiastes: Curse
not the king, no not in thy thought;
and curse not the rich in thy bed
chamber; for a bird of the air shall
carry thy voice. and that which hath
wings shall tell the matter"

cision will then place the case in the same relative position that it was before.
 About the only difference in the case is that the old precinct officers. instead of the new, will have to show cause why they should con- tinue in office As previously, both sides are equally sure that the su- preme court will decide in their favor It is understood that the same proceedings as are being brought by the Bisbee precinct off cers are being brought by the pre- cinct officers in Phoenix.
 Both the newly appointed precinct officers have been sworn in and their bonds approved. Justice H. w.

planned to give tax payers more accurate information as to what purposes the County Supervisors proposed to spend, the tax funds. What Is considered by the commis- sioners to be a very important fea- ture of their new revenue law is that provision which limits an increase in the amount of the levy not to exceed 10 per cent over the levy for the preceding year.
 The assessment of transient herds has been given thought in the new bill and new definition proposed to be written into the law, reading, Transient herds of cattle, sheep or goats wherever mentioned in this Act shall be taken to mean cattle, sheep or goats that range, graze or drift in more than one county for any part of the calendar year." The owner of the herds is required to make affidavit to the County Treasurer of the counties through which his holdings have ranged dur ing the year, and his home county collects the tax and distributes it pro rata among the several counties named in his affidavit
 One very valuable reform pro posed to be accomplished by the new law is the doing away with the duplicate assessment roll in each county which has heretofore been great expense to tax payers. This is done by the use of an extension sheet on the original roll, all of which is prepared by the assessor
 The dates on which taxes be- come payable and delinquent have not been changed but many other dates in the old law have been cor rected so as to not conflict in car rying out the requirements sought to be made law in the new tax commission bill which provides for various reports to the Tax Commis- sion. Just how the bill will be re- ceived by the Legislature is, of course. pure conjecture, but one thing is known, it is the result of many days and nights work of the State Tax Commissioners, P. J.

News Bureau of the Journal Min CT, Room 203, N. B. A. Bldg.
 PHOENIX, Jan. ll.-1n the new revenue law submitted by the State Tax Commission to Governor Hunt with the request that the same be transmitted to the State Legislature, together with the recommendation that it be enacted into law, many of the conflicting paragraphs ol the existing law are corrected and the antiquities made clear and plain. All of the State Tax commissioners have devoted a very considerable part of their time to the drafting of the proposed bill and in com pleting their work along this line they have drawn on the statutes of Wyoming, Kansas and Minnesota to large extent.
 It will be recalled that the plan of the Commission which they hope to have the Legislature approve, is for the State Tax Commission to be the central authority and the high est authority in matters of assess ment and taxation of property. The first State Legislature provided that all property should be returned for taxation purposes under an assess ment at its full cash value. The definition for true cash value under the old law was given as the value of a piece of property either real or personal at a sum equal to that amount. a solvent creditor would accept the property from solvent debtor. The Commissioners have given leash value" a new definition" the price at which property would sell if voluntarily offered for sale by the owner thereof, upon such terms as such property is usually sold. and not the price which might be realized if such property was sold at a forced sale
 One feature. Of ethe new bill which was taken from the Wyoming law provides that on the second Monday in August, the date on which the County Supervisors fix the county tax levy, they shall prepare an esti- mate of the county expenses which must be read into their public pro ceedings and which must show each general item of expenditure propos- cd for the year In this way it is

ANSWER READY IN
 THE NOTED AUTO SUIT

PHOENIX, Jan. 11.-Attorney General Bullard is preparing the an swer of J. C. Callaghan, State Au- ditor, in the mandamus proceeding new pending in the Superior Court, and expressed himself this morning as confident he would be able to demur the matter out of court.
 One of the points of his demur- Ter Is that no mandamus can be sustained when the applicant has an adequate remedy at law, and it will be recalled that the last legis- lature passed a law providing for suits against the state where boards have failed to approve just claims in the amount deemed by contrac- tors to be the amount due He also claims that Callaghan has the right to use his discretion as the appro- val or disapproval of a claim.
 The day of the hearing has not been set but there are many who claim that the Arizona Motor Com pany will be out their automobile unless Governor Hunt relents and permits the new car to be sent to the state prison.

CASE HAS
 TAKEN A NEW TURN

BISBEE, Jan. u.-Action that will be taken in the precinct case, it is expected, will result in putting the case in the same position that 1t was prior to the death of Judge Bur dict, namely as being appealed to the supreme court.
 This will be brought about by the filing, by the county attorney, of quo warranto proceedings against Jus tice High Assistant District Attor- ney Alexander Murry and J. w. Ross, one of the attorneys for the precinct officers, will go to Tomb stone this morning and will there confer with County Attorney w. c. Gilmore. It is. expected that the outcome of the conference will be the filing, by MT. Gilmore, of the quo warraf1to proceedings. A de murrer will then be filed and, it is stated, an appeal to the supreme (OuI AdhCh ny NilC torneys for. the precinct officers. Both sides are anxious that the mat ter be definitely settled by the su- preme court.
 The procedure will place the case in the same position that it was immediately prior to the death of Justice Burdick, with the excep- ton that Justice High will be made defendant whereas Judge Burdick, was plaintiff.
 As to the quo warranto proceed ings, through which Justice High is asked to show cause for continuing in office, it is expected that the same decision will be rendered by Judge Sutter, of the superior court, as he rendered in the first case. The pro ceedings are somewhat different, but the matter to be decided is practi- cally the same, whether the board of supervisors has the right to ap- point new officers
 The board has appointed, on the first ruling of Judge Sutter, and law yers here state that, as the question is absolutely the same. he will de eide that the appointee of the board is the only legal justice in Bisbee. The taking of an appeal on this de

PAYS TRIBUTE TO
 MEMORY OF REV. MCKAY.

For some time rumors have reach ed here of the mental disturbance and consequent death of Rev. Irving F. Mckay, and letter from his widow confirm all this.
 He was two years pastor of the M. E. Church, South, in West Prescott Then he was sent to Clifton, Ariz, and last year asked for transfer to Deer Lodge, Mon tana. He was succeeding common dably with. his work there, when suddenly and without any warning whatever he became violently in sane one midnight. Fortunately there were others in the house who helped attend him until the morn ing, when he was taken to a hospi- tai. The next day he needed to be taken to the asylum, but by kind ly Providence. he was spared from lingering on in this condition and was translated before he was con scious of any trouble Death came December 18th and he was buried at the scene of his labors two days later. His widow has returned to Memphis, Tenn, where she will re- main with her mother
 Rev. Mckay lived among us a stalwart Christian. Faithful in his studies as in his pastoral work, he fed his flock with "the finest of the wheat" Like so many Bible stud ents now, he believed in the near and personal coming of Our Lord and this was a grand inspiration to his life.
 Strong in friendship tender in sympathy, unselfish to the last de gree, he gave himself for his peo- pie. To this exhausting energy of a nervous, high strung temperament, made more susceptible by our high altitude, is probably due the utter collapse of brain power, though there was not the slightest indi- cation of any weakening while here. He had ever at heart the good of the community in which he lived and with the courage of the true Scots man he was ready to give up the flimsy popularity of quiescence for the furthering of any righteous couse, no matter the conflict
 Of a wealthy family he left a lucrative position for small sal ary and the trying work of a preach CT in the West. Like brave sold fer he liked to fight in the fore front, hence his transfer. He left many warm friends wherever he lived, and more surely. perhaps than any of us, he will receive the Mas ter's applaudit, Well done, good and faithful servant, enter thou in to the joys of thy Lord"
