of five million dollars each, one for the construction of state roads, the other for the reclamation of arid, semi-arid and other lands of the state.
 We pledge our candidates, should these constitutional amendments be adopted by the people, to the proper legislative enactments to carry out the intent of the law, and to provide for the proper applications of the funds that may be raised so that Yuma county will share equitably in the im- movements for which the amendments are proposed, and bind them to a careful and economical expenditure of the same.
 We heartily endorse the proposed amendment to our present statutes, providing for the semi-annual payment of taxes, but we cite as highly imprac- tical, the proposed Australian Tax Law" entitled: "An Act to Establish a Just and Equal System of Taxa ton, etc."
 We believe that women should haae the same rights as their husbands, when owners of community property assessed in the husbands name, to vote at all elections where 1t Is a prerequisite that the electors should be a taxpayer, and pledge our legisla- tive candidates to the enactment of such laws as will give the full rights of suffrage to married women. We believe that the present laws do not give to mothers sufficient guar dianship rights to the persons and estates of their minor children, and pledge our legislative candidates to the enactment of such laws as will correct this condition.
 We pledge our legislative candidates to work and vote for better laws reg ulating our school lands, to the end that more benefit will be received by the public from the use of the lands and more revenue to the state In leas- ing the lands.
 We pledge our legislative candidates to work and vote for an amendment to the present primary law to the ef- feet that it will have some sense to it.
 Believing in the golden opportunities and the wonderful fertility of the Yuma valley lands we call upon our legislative candidates and County Supervisors to work for more material assistance to our local commercial or ganizations in the exhibition four agricultural products at home and abroad and a better advertisement of our many natural resources.
 We pledge our candidates to an efficient and economical administra- ton of the county affairs, with a view to reducing taxes, and to the end that we will get more value for the money expended, and a proper and wise ex- penditure of all money raised by bond issues
 We stand for the selection of good men in office. For the development of the county's resources. The con- servation of the public revenues. The expansion of business, and the pro- lection of the rights of every person and business within the county.
 We stand for good roads, and for ef- ficiency and economy in their build ing and upkeep.

Correct Street Suit in which Striped and Plain Serge is Combines and Trimmed Effectively with
 Persian Lamb Cloth

No one is better known in Yuma county than Harry McPhaul, the Non Partisan candidate for constable. He came to Arizona from Waco, Texas in 1882. and for ten years was in the employ of the Valley Bank at Phoenix
 He came to Yuma in 1897, after nv ing at Gila Bend, where he served as a deputy sheriff and constable. He has served as a territorial ranger for two years and also was elected to the office of town marshal and constable which he filled to the full satisfaction of all
 He has always made an efficient and fearless officer and has never been known to miss his man once he went after him. He was the of ficer who arrested the desperate crlml- nal Bert" Hart, who killed Deputy Sheriff Matt DeVane on January 8, 1900.
 
 ter fitted for the office cannot be found in Yuma county and the voters should not miss this opportunity of securing the services of one so emi- nently fitted for this position.
 with a collar high in the back held in place and tied high around the neck by a black velvet ribbon. The skirt was of black satin and clung close to the figure Over this was wo:n a redingote tunic of craqueIe net edged with deep band of satin ribbon. This tunic floated away from the figure giving a breezy effect to the costume and the skirt glimmered through the sheer net in a fascinating manner. A charming little Cossack hat of black velvet was perched slightly on the side of the head, on which an American beauty rose was laid carelessly on the side, little to the back.
 The Redingote and Moyen Age style holds sway for the street dress of serge, gabardine, repp and broadcloth. In the dress illustrated a battleship gray broadcloth is combine dwith the black satin. The upper dress, in one piece with the skirt, is of battleship gray broadcloth is combined with the edges, with black braid. The inset vest and the skirt is of black satin. A narrow belt of the broadcloth is placed around the dress just below the waist.
 A cunning little hat is worn with the frock which reminds one of an Indian teepee with strips of stiff rib bon tied together in the center and spreading out, like similarly tied punches of arrows. This is a unique model which is smart if placed proper ly upon the head. These days, a hat may be chic, but if the wearer has not a proper sense of the correct man. her of wearing it, it might as well be a Turkish fez or an old-fashioned tricorne.

ALLIES FEAR THE BIG
 NEW GERMAN GUNS
LAZY MARGARET FORCES TWEN- TY ACTRESSES TO QUIT
 OR BE DESTROYED

soon alter the opening or nOSLlllIleS in Europe it became evident to mili- tary experts that the German army had equipped itself with the marvellous instrument of warfare in the form of the Jericho cannon" the latest won der of Krupp technique. At least 20 larger or smaller fortresses have fallen into German hands as the re- suit of it's use. They were either shot to pieces by the seventeen inch mor- tars or capitulated through fear of such treatment. Among these were such important Notifications as Liege, Namur, Maubeuge, Lille and Rheims. An attache in the offices of the Ger man general staff speaks thus enter tainingly of the newest implement of warfare:
 ''It is proposed to give the new gun historical name taken from Bran denburgPrussian history - namely, Lazy Margaret It was an ancestor of the present Kaiser who possessed this monster which proved so effective against his enemies. It is only repe- tition of the worlds history, changed and enlarged according to circum- stances, that the army of the Hohen- zollern emperor now is advancing with this terrible and invincible piece of artillery. In connection with this let me recall the difficulties which were experienced when the Jericho can non was photographed in action. 1t was not to be wondered at that can non ball, which, with a weight of so many hundredweight, whizzes on straight to it's goal over a distance of more than ten miles causes a suction which blows into the air everything in the vicinity. The severing of the air at the moment the ball has left the mortar causes deafening and ter rifying report.
 "The first of the series of photo graphs shows the bullet as it is leav- ing the mouth of the cannon; a sec ond picture, taken a moment later, shows it surrounded by a halo of luminous gases. In other views this halo is seen enlarged to a spherical cloud with a dark base, which en- compasses the bullet like a ring. On the remaining pictures of the series this cloud becomes larger and loses it's compactness of form, and the dark base no longer appears Finally the bullet comes into view clearly separat- ed from the vapor. It is easily seen how the gases first precede the bull. let and are finally overtaken and passed by the latter.
 "The taking of such photographs is a task which demands exceptional care. An electric apparatus is used by means of which the shutters of the camera are closed as a result of the recoil of the bullet. The shutter is very delicately adjusted and works with the speed of one five-thousandtE of second. The electric current IS broken by the proper intervals for the taking of the successive pictures. A moving picture camera was tried as an experiment, but failed to follow the speed of the bullet''

Non-P Partisan Platform

It is a condition that confronts us, not theory.
 Party is the madness of many, for the gain of a few.
 The elimination of partisan politics from the management of county af- fairs is an end to be much desired. The wanton extravaganza of politi- cal parties is past endurance. The gross incompetence of officers domi- mated by state and national political machines are increasing the cost of living every day. Because of a row among the politicians the jail doors of Yuma county have been opened and the people denied protection. Criminals have been turned loose with out trial. Indictments brought by the grand jury upon complaints of the people have been ignored.
 The wheels of justice have been stopped. Politicians drawing large salaries from the county have vacated their offices for months to engage in an internecine party primary. Instead of explaining the intent of the law to the public and attempting to up- hold the law, every political subter- tuge was used, every inducement made
 O produce a sacrilege of the law.
 The Arizona Primary Law is the creation of Democratic legislature. It s an abomination to people. Under the political management of Yuma county for the past three years. the peoples money has been squan- dered. The county funds have been misappropriated. Misfeance in office was permitted until a grand jury in vestigation shook the organization to it's very foundation, and a partial cor rection was made.
 In a government like ours, founded | by the people, managed by the people, non-partisanship should prevail in all 1 local affairs.
 Particularly is this true in the pres ent campaign wherein the initiative and referendum law is invoked.
 Matters of state wide and local i'm portance are taken away from the politicians and are referred directly to the vote of the people.
 Believing in that part of our consti- tuition that gives to the people the right to initiate laws, we pledged our candidates to the strict enforcement and impartial application of all laws initiated and adopted by the people of the state. Especially do we pledge our candidates to the strict enforce ment of all laws, if they should be approved by the people at the coming election, known as moral laws, and laws extending protection and rights to labor.
 Increase in the high cost of living is the result of the increase in taxa ton.
 We direct the attention of the voters to the initiated measures proposing a bonded indebtedness of the state, the counties of which have to raise the money by taxation.
 There is nothing of more vital inn portance to the taxpayers of the state at the present time, than the wo pro- posed constitutional amendments au- thorizing bond issues to the amount

A disastrous fire was bravery averted
here Saturday night, shortly after the
shutting down of the long lumber mill of
Whitcomb, Haynes & Co. The fire had
caught from the burning furnace in the
dry shavings and sticks scattered about
the yard, and was making good Roadway
when discovered by some Of the workmen
who had just gone home for their supper.
The fire company responded promptly,
but by the time 1890 feet Of hose had
been laid the fire was pretty we'll under
control by the use of the mill hose. The
fire had nearly reached the piles of dry
lumber, and had it once got started in
these, there would have been no stopping
it on account Of the high wind.
