VERDE VOTE DOES
NOT AFFECT
THE RESULT

Returns received yesterday made
the number OF precincts heard from
forty-seven OF the ffty-four, and
showed a tally OF 600 votes in ia
vor of the bond issue and but 30S
against. The vote to be received
from the missing precincts will not
figure prominently in the final esti-
mate for not over total OF thirty
will be polled in all OF these. The
only effect and interest attached to
the missing precincts is that these
returns will determine the winners
of wagers who bet that the issue
would carry by vote OF two to one.
The long anticipated returns from
the Verde were yesterday received
and the tallies lived up to the ex-
pectations of the "dopsters" the
Verde people practically gong solid
against the issue with the excep-
ton OF Cottonwood. the home OF
Supervisor Alonzo Mason Sixteen
precincts were heard from with re
turns yesterday while nine others
reported that no votes had been
cast.
The prediction that Prescott's ma
jority in favor OF the bond issue,
3S5 votes, would eclipse the total
vote cast in opposition to the issue
in the county was more than real
lied for with seven small precincts
still on the missing list the total
cast iii oppaaion is but 30S.
Skull VI Dak Greek, the mid
die Verde, n Verde, Camp Yer
de and large number of the out
lying points all went against the is
sue by heavy majorities. 1t is sin
gular to note that Walnut Grove,
alone, gave an almost impartial vote
among the many precincts which
boast over ten tallies. In the ma
iority OF the larger precincts. the
issue either went heavy one way or
the other. Walnut Grove went six
in favor and seven against. Mayer
4 Jerome. Humboldt and Skull Val
ley all went heavily against the is
sue and still it is interesting to note

IS for the bonds. AT the United
Verde precinct, known as the smell
ter precinct, a vote of fourteen for
and two against was cast. This
showing is conceded as proving con-
clusively that the United Verde, the
heaviest taxpayer in the county is
directly in favor of the new court
house.
Verde Quiet.
Camp Verde and other points in
the valley could not be reached up
until late hour last night when
Cornville reported three for and
fourteen against the issue. Camp
Verde and Cottonwood are still to
be heard from as are Hillside, Con-
gress. Congress Junction and
number of other points in the west
ern part of the county.

FINAL TALLY FOR
ELECTION IS NOT IN
(Fron Saturdays DaiIy.)

Returns from but one additional
precinct, Beaver Greek, were yester-
day received in the new court house
bond issue election and as a result
the final tally may not be known
until tonight or even early next
week. Six of the ffty-four pre-
cincts are still to be heard from.
Beaver Crek cast a unanimous
vote of seven against the passage
of the bond issue, following in the
footsteps of a number of outlying
precincts. The addition of seven
TO the previous tally of 3OS against
the passage of the bond issue made
the standing last night 600 for and
315 against
1t is now extremely doubtful that
those who were wagering that the
issue would pass by two to one, will
win for it is generally conceded
that the few outlying missing pre-
cincts will go against the passage
OF the issue

BUILDING
NEW STRUCTURE
JANUARY |
SALE OF NEW COURT
HOUSE BONDS TO BE AID
VERTISED AT ONCE;
REMOVE OFFICES
(From Thursdays Daily.l


By January 1, 1915, the old court
house, faithful in its service for
over thirty years, will be no more
and the contractors spade will dig
into the wealthy Arizona soil for
the first break of ground in the
erection of the $250OOO court house
voted by the taxpayers of the coun-
ty at the special election held Tues
day. II is doubtful whether the
structure will be completed before
January l, 1916.
Upon the present board of super
visors will fall the honor of being
the board in office when the issue
was not only voted but the first
spade of ground removed. From
now on, the wheels of action in con-
nection with the bond issue will
move fast. The tally or vote on the
question will be in and canvassed
by August 1. when the clerk will
be instructed to advertise for bids
for the sale of the bonds. Stimuli
taneously an advertisement will be
inserted calling for the submission
OF plans by architects.
The sale of the bonds must be
advertised for thirty days and the
issue will probably be disposed OF
by September l. The plans for the
structure could be considered i'm
mediately after, an architect engaged
and the building contract advertised.
All of this routine work should be
completed and out of the way by
December l. allowing a months
time in which to remove the differ
ent offices and to tear down the
present structure.
The supervisors are now casting
about for a location to which to
remove all of the county offices,
including the Superior Court Two
places, the Palace hotel and Odd
Fellows building have been men
toned. The former boasts spacious
quarters, sufficient to accommodate
all of the Offices Extensive alter
atoms and improvements would be
necessary if the lower floor of the
Odd Fellows building was deter
mined upon.

BOND ISSUE IS PASSED
BY A 242 MAJORITY
(From Sundays Daily

Revised figures procured last night
from the office OF the board OF sup
ervisors showed that with three
small precincts OF the hfty-four still
on the missing list, the majority in
favor OF the passage of the new
court house bond issue was PAP
votes. The complete tally as ofh-
cially canvassed by the board is:
Yes, SOS; no, 323.
A change OF over fifty votes was
effected with the revisal of the
figures from the Upper Verde or
Cottonwood district Returns re-
ceived here on the first day showed
that the issue had carried in that
precinct by vote of twenty-six to
two. Yesterdays official figures re-
ceived by the board showed the re-
suit in that precinct to have been
exactly vice versa.
When the twenty-six to two tally
was registered in favor of the issue,
the skeptics whispered in suspicion
for it was generally conceded that
the entire Verde would go strong
against the issue. Those of an op-
timistic frame Of mind however,
pointed to the residence OF Super
visor Alonzo Mason in this precinct.
But all calculations were shatteT-
ed when the official tabulation ar
rived yesterday and it was noted
that the telephone wires had misled
in sending over the returns The
revised figures OF the Cottonwood
precinct show that the entire Verde
district of four precincts went
against the issue by seventy to
seven
Three precincts are still to be
heard from but it is doubtful
whether the present majority OF 2+2
votes will be cut down by more
than ten votes if cut down at all.
All of the returns will be can
vassed by the board of supervisors
in regular session on August after
which the subsequent steps relative
to the erection of the new $250,O00
court house will be taken.

MANY MEASURES

SAN FRANCISCO, July 25.-Re-
gistration for CALIFORNIA; primaries
closed at midnight tonight and the
indications are that the final esti-
mates will show even a larger
record than in 1912 There will be
a number of initiated and referred
measures, probably the chief OF
which is the proposed constitutional
amendment for statewide prohibi-
ton.
Weekly journal-miner. [volume] (Prescott, Ariz.) 1908-1929, 1914-07-29

The court house boosters had
been skeptical regarding the atti-
tude of the Mayer people but the
overwhelming majority against the
issue was entirely unexpected. An
even break or a slight majority for
the mo" element was the least ex-
pected
Just what the cause of this adj
verse vote was is d matter open to
conjecture. Recent fertilization ses-
sions in which Prescott men hearth
ly Endorsed the placing Of reduc-
ton plant at Mayer in preference
to this city, had apparently cement
ed warm friendship between the
two communities and it was general
ly understood that both places would
work hand in hand in the interests
OF the county and promotion OF
prosperity.
Humboldt Too.
Humboldt, too was the cause OF
some deep surprises for few mill
utes later the telephone bell rang
and announced that the smelter
town had gone against the issue
by a vote OF 10 to 3.
Jerome Landslide.
Over in Jerome, something real
strange happened. A rumor had
gained considerable prominence &c
the effect that Prescott taxpayers
wanted the new court house for
selfish reasons Apparently, no one
had defined the real, essential rea-
son for the campaign, to insure tn,
safety OF a million dollars worth
/ of records or rather. to rescue then
from the existing hre-trap. Then II
addition there was the report tina
Prescott positively felt confident o
carrying the election merely by it,
own votes.
With no one on hand to chang,
these mistaken notions, it appear
ed on Monday like a unanimous
landslide against the bond issue
Late that night. however. Attorney
Leroy Anderson of this city reach
ed Jerome and hearing these er
roneous reports, he realized tina
something was up. Together witt
Will L. Clark.manager of the Unite,
Verde, he conducted thorough can
vas of the town and found thing
remarkably lined up against the Is
sue. Then followed hours OF ex
planning by the two active cam
!, paigners.
Yesterday morning at the poll,
too both Mr. Clark and Mr. An
: derson were conspicuous by thei
: presence. There is no doubt tina
the votes cast for the bond issu
. were directly due to their effort:

Prescott tc the Front.


Prescott taxpayers simply rallied
to the front in a remarkable man
ner giving the issue a majority Of
3S5 votes out OF :ota1 Of 40 cast
In the polling place located in the
New State theatre, a total OF 244
votes was cost. At $50 O'Clock,
one half hour after the polls clos
ed the vote was announced as fol-
lows:
Yes 20.
No IS.
Rejected 2
Up in the fire house precinct at
o'clock, the tellers and judges
were still counting the ballots. A
few minutes later when work was
completed the most remarkable run
of the election was announced and an
idea CLEANED OF the total vote cast
in Prescott. The vote here was as
follows:
Yes 1873.
No Il.
Rejected T.
This gives the total for the two
Prescott precincts as follows:
Yes Az.
No 81.
Rejected 6.
1t was a remarkable runaway and
one which by Tar eclipsed the most
optimistic expectations of the new
court house boomers. The figures
show that Prescott polled a fair
percentage OF its total vote; thai
the same average would no doubt
be registered in the other precinct:
OF the county; that Prescott by vir-
tue OF the fact that it boosted fifty
two per cent of the taxpaying vof,
ers had the natural right to expec
that half OF the votes OF the elec
ton would be cast here and tina

pilots Lists OF the qualified voters
were perused every few minutes and
notes jotted down. The telephone
bell was kept ringing in communi-
cation with many of the women
voters who requested conveyance TO
reach the polls. A directory was
kept and the machines called at the
different homes when assigned.
Considering the fact that it was
bond election, the vote during the
early morning hours in Prescott was
remarkably heavy, over Us ballots
being cast by the noon hour. At
that time It was apparent that 4
heavy majority was being rolled UP
in favor OF the bonds
The majority OF the woman vot-
ers, however, rallied to the polls
in the early afternoon, being whirl-
ed to and from these stations in
machines. 1t is believed that the
women who represented at least one
third OF the entire vote in Prescott
were unanimously for the issue.
While the tally of ASS votes cast
in Prescott is considered fair, i;
is by no means adudged the maxi
mum. The usual lack of interest
in bond elections would have been
in evidence here but for the organi-
cation OF the workers who hustled
the voters to the polls. The work
ers were on the OBJ until the very
last minute, Sam Wallace in hi:

In Jerome.

Over in Jerome a peculiar situa-
ton appeared prior and during the
election. Mistaken reports regard
ing the necessity of the new court
house had gained wide circulation
and considerable credence, with the
result that it looked like a lani-
slide OF the town proper against the
issue. Jerome in the pinch can rally
over 200 voters in such an election
but only seventy-seven voted against
and fifteen for. This minimum fig
ure is explained in an interesting
way.
Senator Clark, owner OF the Unit
ed Verde and the heaviest taxpay-
er in the county had expressed his
hearty approval OF the new court
house. The tally at the smelter pre-
cinct which showed fourteen for and
two against and at Jerome Junction
which polled eleven in favor and
one against, fully substantiates this
attitude.
1t was public property in Jerome
proper that Senator Clark favored
the issue On the other hand the
sentiment in the town appeared to
be almost wholly against it. Ac-
cordingly, those taxpayers who
harbor a respect for the part the
senator plays in the upkeeping OF
Jerome and his views in matters OF
this kind, simply paid no attention
to the issue at all and stayed away
from the polls.
A belated report late last night
from Williamson valley showed that
that precinct cast four votes, every
one Of them being in favor OF the
bonds.
An arrival from Jerome in auto
mobile at an early hour this (Thurs-
day. morning brought the news thai
Camp Verde precinct cast a tota
of So ballots. Although not know
ing the exact figures, he said the
vote was two to one against the
bond issue.
