 Summary
 "Mr. Callghan changed mismanage- ment and incompetency and immortality gross and far reaching. which is not and cannot be denied and is absolute ly inexcusable has existed there dur ing a considerable period of time, and stated the oasis for the charges as follows:
 About the same time(duung the last week of February. l91D while upon an official visit to the State industrial school at Fort Grant my attention was called briefly to condi- tions said to have existed there, and while at Willcox, on my return, simi- lar rumors and reports, which ap- peared to have emanated from former employees of the institution, came to my attention.
 Mir Callaghan insisted upon a pub. lie investigation even after his atten- ton was called to the fact that such Ia course might operate to the detri- ment of the school and its inmates. After granting the reiterated demands for a public investigation this board. as it's telegrams quoted by both the auditor and superintendent of the school will show, simply insisted up- on the investigation being public Mr. Callaghan was restricted to the course upon which he previously insisted by majority of this board and not by the secretary.
 "It is the opinion Of the Board Of Control of Arizona that the charge of incompetency and mismanagement is not sustained by the evidence that the charge of immortality grossly mis- represented conditions and such causes for criticism on the point as as may have existed were remedied before the auditors demand for an in- yestigation was made and that the charges according to the auditors own statement were founded upon insigni. ficant and nl-defned rumors Of condi tions said to have existed there. and which appeared to have emanated from former CdischargedO employs of the institution"

 Only the Business Portion of the City; SOmerS System Used

The appraisal of land values in the seven principal cities of Arizona. under the Somers System of Land Valuation has been completed for the current years tax assessment and as a result of this work the tax burden on realty will be more equilably distributed than ever before in the histroy of the State
 The relative value Of the lands In each of the seven cities and towns iu which the somers System has been in. stalled under the direction Of tho State Tax Commission this year. tells in no uncertain terms of the real inl- portance of the several communities in the life of the commonwealth.

that it is misdemeanor to make any
substitution for regular auto num-

1t has been the habit of automobile
owners to substitute a painted placard
for the regulation number plate in
cases where the original has been lost
instead of replacing with a new plate
purchased from the state. According
to a state ruling this is a misde-
meanor and officers have been in

N|DDLEWE|CHT
But Naughton Fears Billy Muir
ray, Touted as Coming Star, Is
Being Pushed Too Fast.
By W. w. Naughton.

CAN FRANCISCO, March 2.-Somc
fighters are eoddled along and
some are sent into good compa-
ny the instant they show evidence OF
class.
When the suspicion developed that
Carl Morris, of Oklahoma, might one
day develop into a world beater, all
kinds of precautions were taken to
safeguard him while he was learning
the trade of the ring. 4 millionaire
took hold Of him and furnished him
with experienced tutors in addition
TO building a gym for him.
When big Carl was finally launched
on the sea of professional pugllism
he bumped into all kinds of rocks
both charted and uncharted, lie mas
been laid up for repairs frequently
and now they are talking of sending
him against Sam Langford.
Bob McAlister, too, was sent along
slowly: and what happened to him
when he got into the full swirl OF
things in the East suggests that the
time spent in pampering and pro-
tecting a promising pugilist is mere
~ time lost.
AL KAUFMAN had a totally differ
I ent experience. AL in his four
round days. was known as One
Round" Kaufman and it was prophe-
sled that he would cut full-width
swath when slipped from the leash as
q professional
First they sent him against Harry
Foley but il looked as though mild
hammered Harry had SIMPLY lent him
self TO the occasion to prove that Al
had a right to be called "One- Round
kaufman.
Without delay Kaufman was
matched with Philadelphia Jack
O'Brien, who in those years was both
a slasher and a singer.
O'Brien laughed when they told him
what terror Kaufman had proved as
an amateur.
II can defeat any man who has not
had at least two years experience in
the professional ring" said O'Brien.
Jaak gave the stalwart young San
Franciscan hiding which in all prob
ability had its influence on the bal
ance Of AIS career.
GAN FRANCISCO has another
~ promising young boxer in the per-
son of Middleweight Billy Murray,
and he is being hurried along in the
same manner s Kaufman
Murray. like Kaufman, is a product
Of the four round shows. For months
past he has been the bright particular
star OF the Friday night game. Incl
6entally the four round phase of pu-
gilism is one in which a fighter is
thoroughly tried out. Very often a
cub boxer becomes popular for a while
and then drifts away to Join those
who have been tried and found want
ing
Murray has stood every test, and
the other night stopped Leo Houck,
the Philadelphia middleweight, in
fourteen rounds. However we will
have to wait until he has had a few
more fights to see just how good he is.
