Sure you can buy Strawberries
now" assures the Stuttgart Arkan-
sawyer and then warns: But If you
do, don't look at the grocer's bill at
the end of the month and charge up
the cost Of high living to the trusts. ="
The Arkansawyer might have added
that the trusts cannot be blamed en-
tirely for the high cost of living as
long as people will buy by the dimes
worth and demand that each pur-
chase be delivered separately and at
once. Delivery service costs money,
and the merchants have to add this
to the price of goods.

Heredity and insanity.

Heredity accounts for about fifty
per cent. OF the cases of insanity. This
Is encouraging. It shows that the
shocks and conditions of modern life
do not make people insane; the siren
uous life merely brings out the insan-
ity that is latent In some persons as
q result of heredity. A noraml per-
son cannot be driven insane. by any
OF the conditions of modern life.

NO INCREASE IN ASSES
MENT OF PRESCOTT
(Fron Saturdays Daily.)

Prescotts assessed valuation for
this year while not completed by
Assessor Frank Williams, will be
practically the same as last year,
$3,S0O,OO0. While a number OF ad-
vances in value have been made the
amount of depreciation in other dis
tricts has offset this gain with the
result that a 'stand1off'' is the most
logical conjecture in view of the
absence OF accurate figures and data.
In assessing Prescott this year,
Mr.. Williams followed the same rule
he employed before. He has in
mind, however, new system for
next year which calls for the CO.
operation of three men we'll versed
in real estate values of Prescott
While he believes that the Somers
System will eventually turn out to
be alright. he doesn't think it en-
tirely satisfactory now.
Mr.. Williams is assessing Prescott
property at seventy-fve per cent OF
its value. On the other hand the
county is assessing the property at
its full value Last year the county
placed a valuation of about $4,000
900 upon Prescott The small dif-
ference between the city and coun-
ty figures considering the twenty
five per cent cut between the two
rates is accounted for in the fact
that the city assessed closer to val
uations. The Somers System has
been employed by the county this
year with the result that valuations
in Prescott have increased over
eight per cent. This means that
the county's assessed valuation for
Prescott will be about S4,500.0O0 or
nearly a million more than the city
assessment rolls show.

POPULAR RESORT OF
AMBITION IS SENATE
(From Saturdays Daiiy.)

Aspirants to the state senate are
as thick as bees in the Democratic
ranks. With almost three weeks
time remaining in which to file
petitions with the county board OF
supervisors. three of these docu-
ments have already been submitted
another is believed to be forthcom-
ing and the two present incumbents
OF the offices, both Democrats are
still to be head from definitely.
An interesting situation was de-
veloped yesterday when it was
learned that Attorney Carl NJ. Helm
OF Jerome had announced his can
didacy for the Democratic nomina-
ton. Both Helm and Attorney c.
II. Rutherford. a fellow barrister of
Jerome have filed their petitions
with the board of supervisors. This
latest development would imply an
interesting fight for the nomination
i'll Jerome where both are we'll
known and engaged in law practice.
Rutherford was the first OF the
Democratic senatorial aspirants to
announce his candidacy. Two days
ago, Morris Goldwater, former
mayor of Prescott, announced his
candidacy to the state senate and
authentic report has it that Mrs.
Frances Willard Munds will within
a few days file her petition. State
Senator Michael G. CunGif has de-
clared that he would probably not
seek reelection. State Senator
Wood of this city has still to COM
NIT himself.

COLDWELL HAD A PRE-
MONITION OF DEATH
(From SATURDAYS Daily.)

That Percy V. Coldwell, late sup
erintendent of the Pioneers Home
had a premonition of approaching
death was the discovery made yes
terday with the Simultaneous finding
of a will left in the Bank of Arizona
The will was unearthed yesterday
morning when J. G. Sweeney, petit
toner for letters or administration
in the estate, appeared for a hearing
before Judge Frank o. Smith in the
Superior Court
Prior to this hearing Sweeney had
asked letters of administration under
the belief that no will had been left.
The total estate was represented by
about S1l00 in cash on deposit in
the Bank of Arizona.
The will was drawn up and signed
by Coldwell upon sheet of letter
headed paper and contains about
100 words in which he names Col
bert Coldwell. a nephew residing
in San Francisco as his heir. The
will requested that the nephew take
charge of his remains and inter
them either besides his recently de-
ceased brother Nathaniel c. Cold
well in California or in the family
plot in Kansas. The first named
died about six weeks ago in San
Francisco of heart failure the cause
of the local mans death. The will
was drawn up and signed in Cold
wells own handwriting about two
weeks before his sudden death. He
returned on June 80 from San Fran
cisco where ne had attended the
funeral of his brother.

WREN SEEKS JOB HE
HAS LONG CHERISHED

PHOENIX, Aug. AFTER all.
Senator Pokwhatan S. Wren, of Yav-
apai county, may be superintendent
OF the state Pioneer Home, at Pres
colt. His appointment may come
any day.
Last week Governor Hunt ex-
pressed the opinion that a young
man should be superintendent Of the
home and Wren's name was stricken
from the list of possibilities, al
though he had been ar applicant for
year and half. The governors
utterance was taken as I pretty
good indication that John J.
Sweeney, os Prescott, placed tenn
porarily in charge of the home after
the death of Percy V. Coldwell,
would be continued permanently as
head OF the institution. 1t was
known that Sweeney was giving
good satisfaction and was getting
along swimmingly with the pioneers.
When Wren heard what the gov
ernor had said he made tracks for
Phoenix. He has been here several
days now and seems to feel a great
deal better than when he came. In
fact. Wren seems to regard the
Pioneer Home SUPPLEMENTARY as
his very own little job.
Persons on the inside say that
Wren has worked some kind of a
rabbits loot and that the governor
has changed his mind about the nee
essity of appointing a young man to
manage the home.
There are a number of applica-
tons and the governor says that he
is giving them all careful consid-
Grafton before making a final choice.

BLOWN 40 FEET
DANGEROUSLY INJURED
(From Saturdays Daily.)

F. S. Swan was dangerously
wounded Wednesday evening at
about ) o'clock at the Ford Mining
company camp, near Jerome juno
ton by the premature exploding of
giant powder, and he is in Mercy
hospital under medical treatment.
When the shot was let off he was

arm fractured in two places. Yes
terday afternoon his condition was
said to be so serious that an opera
ton would be performed during the
day on his kidneys and for other
internal injuries. His recovery is
considered extremely doubtful.
Mr.. Swan is a member of the

is the direct index to the length OF
time on duty of the crew, and the
physical and mental strain that must
be exerted.
1t is a very common thing while
riding on passenger train to meet
or pass a freight train containing
from sixty to one hundred and ten
cars, and the thought a once occurs
in the laymen's mind how such
enormous power could be invested
in one machine to handle such
heavy trains and how men can be
educated to handle such enormous
weight and lengthy train with sufh-
Gent skill to get them over the
road successfully.
The cost of living has materially
increased since 1910 and as the en-
gineers and iremen in this country
are responsible citizens, it is indeed
fitting that their earning power
should be sufficient to meet, at least
reasonable demand along this line
in order to maintain fitting stand
ard of living.
1t is fair estimate that living
expenses within the last five years
have increased practically twenty
five per cent, while the wages of
enginemen have increased in this
corresponding time about ten per
cent, and even with this increase.
enginemen in both instances are not
able to earn as large salaries as they
did prior to the increase, due to the
added hardships brought about by
the introduction of larger engines
and the tonnage system, which has
greatly increased both the labor and
responsibility of the engineer and
firemen, and, requiring them to lay
off in order to secure the necessary
rest to stand the added hardship,
which time off duty means a reduc-
ton in their earning capacity, there
fore, it will be understood that the
earnings of enginemen do not COM
pare favorably with the wages of
employees in other classes of labor.
and while the railway companies try
to make it appear that enginemen
are high paid class of employees,
the fact remains that their earning
capacity has materially decreased,
while on the other hand their earn
ing power for the roalroads has
greatly increased.
