FREE TEXT BOOKS
 ARE HELD UP

PHOENIX. Aug 4.-There is a strong possibility that the state will be unable 10 furnish free text books thls year The tangled appropriation bili may be soon strengthened out in the courts but II the appropriation Tor lhr ,Iat- school fund should be found Ia be valid T. w"uld then probably be too late 10 arrange for the books Su that they would be received by thr t::ne of the opening of the schools. If the appropriation should be found to ne invalid. funds for the school book, would not be available until after an othor session uf the legislature.
 The NJ Neil company IS under con tract to furnish the book and tIe company has received from SupcIin. tendent Case partial list of thc book required. The contract this year will amount to about S5O.O00 The com pany, probably. will hesitate to incnr an indebtedness of that amount for which the state may have no money for months. and possibly not until after the next regular session of the legislature.
 The company is under a S20 .0J0 bond for the fulfillment of the c ntract but the state being a temporarily in- solvent party and having become in solvent after the contract WAS entered into the company would be redeemed IS obligation.
 In the most favorable circumstances the books will be greatly delayed this year. At this time last year the lists had long before been received from the superintendent. had been ordered and many of them had been delivered to the schools. This year. on account of the state of the appropriation the sup erintendent was not able to make up the list Now the books are yet to be ordered from the publishing house and the to be distributed.

Breaks up Booze

Parties coming over from the vicinity of Ft. Huachuca state that there is but little intoxicating liquor now reaching parties on the reservation. Col. Brown. who IS now in charge of the post. and who has recently returned from a fur tough. has taken hold of the booze question and during the past few weeks has destroyed number oi shipments that were consigned to parties there. He receives word when any shipment arrives and then awaits the payment of the express charges by the consignee. when he takes possession ot it and has his patrol destroy the same in his pres ence, The supply of liquor on the res- ervati6n now, is comparatively small to what it was few months since, and what gets onto the reservation now is smuggled in. and if any is found in the possession of the soldiers it is destroyed at once.

BOARD OF SUPERVISORS
 FIX COUNTY ESTIMATE

The Board of Supervisors were in ses- sion yesterday and transacted consid- eTable business of the routine order There were two petitions from Para disc. one asking that a road be opened and the other that it be closed. Both petitions had the names of several citi- zens on them, SC the Board decided 10 pass the matter up to County Engineer Ryan for consideration.
 The board will meet again on Mon day, at which time the question of the county budget will be taken up. As the budget now stands the estimate neces- sary to carry on the business of the county for the ensuing year. as made out by Clerk of the Board A. C Kar- Karger. is s3SS. 403. This does not in clude the cost of maintaiuing the schools of the county. IL is estim ted that there will beiaised about s26. 200 from fees from the various offices dur ing the year. which will leave the amount to be raised by direct taxation exclusive of schools S362. .2G3.
 The estimate prepared by Miss Liu' 7, county school superintendent. show $ that it will require the sum of S3li .5i0 for the common schools. while s2S. 71S.09 will have to be raised by specia taxes in some of the districts The es- timate is based on the average daily at tendance in the districts and where ad- di;iunal funds are required they have t' be raised by special taxes. in the high school districts tine following amounts will have to be raised Tombsto1e st O9O: Bisbee High School and Kin dergarten. s36.9i5; Benson Union High School. s9,OOO; Wilcox. s7.5OO. Doug las. s26.9
 The Beard of Supervisors will meet on the 10th to fix the tax rate. which from present appearances will be a slight increase over this year, but noth ing definite can be determined until something is heard from the State TaS Commission or Board of Equalization which is now in session in Phoenix, and which will fix the state rate.

TEXT OF NEAR
 BEER DECISION

LOS ANGELES. August l-"Near. beer" known among the cafes and irri gating establishments in Arizona, is taboo,
 In the dc cision handed down by U. $ Circuit Judge Erskine NJ Ross and | s. District Judges Sawtelle. Of Phoenix. and Oscar A TriTpet the prayer of the Mission Brewing Com pany and the San Diego Brewing Com. pany that Wiley E. Jones. Attorney General of Arizona, be enjoined from enforcing the law pas denied. Judge Ross read the opinion.
 It was announced that an appeal
 would be taken to the Supreme Court of Arizona
 It is expected that the hearings on these appeals will be held at the octo- Der sitting of the Court
 Judge Ross said the constitution of Arizona absolutely prohibits the intro duction into the state. under any pre- tense. of any ardent spirits. ale. wine. beer or intoxicating liquor of any kind. |" and provides that whoever sells, ex- changes, barriers or disposes of any such article. shall be punished as provided by law.
 The court said it was conceded by the defendants that the beverage does not contain sufficient alcohol to render it intoxicating, but il is coutended by them that that fact is wholly inmate
 rial for the reason that the introduction into the state or the safe therein of any matted or iermented lquor containing any alcohol. however small in quantity. is absolutely prohibited by the provis- ions of the constitution.
 And it is expressly conceded by the i parties that il has been so expressly ad- judged by trial court of the state in two cases. and judgment of conviction | imposed in each of them. for the sale
 within the state of beverages similar to that here involved. It therefore clearly appears. the opinion says, from the ex- press admission of the parties. that the very question whether the introduction into Arizona or the sale tberein of any matted or fermented beverage as pro | hibited by the constitution ot the state
 is now pending in the Supreme Court | for decision. Whatever views the court
 might entertain of the true meaning
 of the word beer" appearing in the provisions of the constitution Of Ari-
 zona. it is for the Supreme Court U
 decide the question. and the court did
 not think it would be justified in an.ic- l ipating decision in any respect. 1 During the argument of this case
 Thursday last. Justice McReynolds, of
 the United States Supreme Court sat
 with the bench and listened to the pre-
 sent ation of the case. It is more than likely that this case will eventually he
 heard in Washington, when Justice McReynolds will be one of the court to pass on the question.
