 TUCSON MOTE RACE
Speed Event for State Fair Expected to Produce Winner Who Will Beat O'Connell's Time
 Between Two Cities

The Tucson Phoenix motorcycle road race is assured, as part of the program of speed events for the next state fair. At the meeting of the fair commission yesterday, Dr. Boido. manager of motorcycle sports for the fair appeared and orated in favor of the road event. He did so to such good effect that the commission voted to spend the money necessary to promote the event. Dr. Boido will go to Tucson week from Saturday. to attend the Coyote Tucson High football game. and while in the Pima metropolis will confer with members of the Tucson Motorcycle club re- garding arrangements.
 The Borderland route between Phoenix and Tucson has already wit messed motorcycle race It took place during the county fair at Tucson last March. Joe O'Connen of this city won the event in hours and F minutes-excellent read time. considering the condition of the high way at that time. With faster en- tries. and probably more of them. the Tucson-Phoenix race is expected to produce a winner, who will better O'COnnell's time by at least ten min utes.
 Tentative plans already decided favor starting the race at a Tucson newspaper office and finishing it after one round on the mile track at the fair grounds. The route will lie through Florence, Higley. Chandler Mesa, Tempe to the asylum, thence north to Mcdowell road, and along that boulevard to the finish line There will probably be three cuts to the purse which will amount to some thing around $500.

NJ GAMBLING

Mexican Authorities to Stop Plans for Big Race Track and Huge Gam bling Concern Modelled After Monte Carlo

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 1S-The Mexican department of foreign af- fairs has directed Consul General De Negri to notify the San F'ranciscans who are said to be back of the Tia Juana race track that the Mexican authorities will not permit it's opera tion or any form of gambling. De Negri said he would inform A. B. Spreckles, who is admitted to be in terested, in the Carranza instructions. De Negri said the concession was granted by Colonel Cantu, the self styled dictator of Lower California to Alverto Madero, a brother of the former president, who is interested, it is said.
 Spreckles said: T am not the prin- cipal stockholder. 1 got the permis- sion of the government of Lower Cal ifornia. A quarter of a million has been spent on the track" De Negri said Cantu was granting concessions freely and had no authority or legal right to do so The consul further stated that plans to build and oper- ate a gambling resort along the line of Monte Carlo are under way

to be something like s11, ASA over and above the amount for which the coun- ty lew can be made The supervisors had taken this method of raising the money without the formality of voting on a bond issue.
 The finding of the tax commission on the matter was to have been made public today, bu yesterday evening a telephone message was received from County Attorney McGowan of Graham county, stating that he wished to ap pear before the board and defend the action of the supervisors of his cOun- ty in exceeding the ten per cent levy to make the appropriation. Chairman Howe notified MT. McGowan that the latter's appeal would be heard on Fri day, Oct. P, and the boards action on the matter be made public shortly afterwards.
 Following is a complete statement of the attorney generals ruling in the case:
 Phoenix. Ariz oct. 16, 1915. Arizona State Tax Commission,
 Phoenix. Arizona.
 Gentlemen: Your letter of the 18th inst. addressed to the attorney gen eral, in which you state that you have found that the ten per cent limit as provided by law. has been exceeded by $11,4S4.S6 in the levy of taxes for the present year by the board of su- pervisOrs of Graham county, has been received. You also state that this in crease in said tax levy has been caused by the taxpayers of Graham county having voted a special tax levy of $18,000 for the purpose of building a bridge across the Gila river, said sum to be paid in full in one year. and the said levy having been made under the provisions of Para graphs 527S and 5279 of the Revised Statutes of Ari- zona, 1913; also that complaint has been made that the ten per cent limit cannot be exceeded unless it be for the purpose of creating an inter est fund.- or redemption fund" under the provisions o said paragraphs and you ask this department whether or not said excess levy of $11,4S4,S6 over and above the ten per cent limit, as prescribed by law, is a legal levy.
 have caerful!y considered the ques- tions propounded by you, and I will admit that our law on county indebt ednes and levy of taxes is somewhat but for that very reason WOulQ duNlSe that que caution De OD- served by the boards of supervisors of the counties of this state in keeping clearly within the law in making tax levieS, in order that they may avoid litigatiOn.l This ten per cent limit law was undoubtedly made for the protection of the taxpayers, as 3 guaranty of economy in the admin of the counties government. l
 If this levy contains an estimate over ten per cent greater than the total sum levied and collected for | other than school purposes during the preceding year, especially when not | evied to create an interest fund, re- | 1emption fund, or for bonded indebt- l ,dness, the estimate would then cer- | ainly be for county purposes, and in | of the provisions of Para graph 4839 of the Revised Statutes of l Arizona, 1913. which provides: F"" The board of supervisors

of each county shall levy and collect for the same fiscal year on an esti- mate for county purposes, additional taxes for such purposes, which to- gether with other sources of revenue shall not, however, aggregate q total sum of money exclusive of taxes for school purposes ten per centum greater in amount than the total sum levied and collected for other than school purposes from all sources dur ing the next year prior to that in which the levy is made. The said es- timate shall contain a statement of the amount of money required for each item of expenditure necessary for county purposes, together with the amounts necessary to pay the inter est and principal of the county bonds, as provided by law, and the said es- timate shall be entered upon the min utes of the board
 I might also state that my attention has been called, by telegram and by letter, by the offiiers of Graham Cohn- ty. to the provisions of Paragraph 5094 of the Revised Statutes of Ari- zona 1913, and the five succeeding ragraphs under which the election was duly held; also Paragraph 5099 by which authority the said levy was made.
 I have carefully examined the pro- visions contained in said para graphs, and it seems that, notwithstanding the provisions contained in said par agraphs, we are compelled to refer back to the provisions of Paragraph 4839, which as above stated, requires that the said estimate shall contain a statement of the amounts necessary to pay the interest and principal of county bonds, and I can find no au- thority under the provisions of said aragraphs for exceeding the ten per cent limit, prescribed by law.
 I am therefore of the opinion that if levy is made solely for county pur- poses that the ten per cent limit above referred to cannot be exceeded, and that the said levy is therefore il- legal and should be decreased so as to come within the limits prescribed by the provisions of Paragraph 4S39 of the Revised Statutes of Arizo- ma, 1913
 desire to state, however, that not withstanding my opinion in this mat ter, if you should desire to allow said levy to stand and have the matter tested in our courts, for the reason that our law is not plain on this sub ject, you may rest assured that this office will render all the assistance possible. Yours very truly,
 c w HARBEN.
