 HORSE FALLS WITH HIM
The Horse Which he Was Riding Falling While he Was Round
 Up Other Animals

Yesterday morning while mounted on a horse rounding up some animal in his pasture to take to the stable. /. M Horne, proprietor of the Q. k Livery Stable, was severely injured about the head also receiving inter- nal injuries, from which he was still unconscious at the South Side hos pital untii a late hour last evening"
 No Ge saw the accident hu' from the nature of the injuries injuries sustained it is surmsed by pr. Greer that horse and rider must have gone down together, the horse in some manner falling on top af the in jured man. which resulted in con cussior of the brain and abdominal injuries.
 He was unconscious when help came to him. and as quickly as pos sible was taken to the hospital where as thorough an examination of his injuries was made as was possible. Yesterday evening his breathing was regular and his pulse normal, and it was thought possible that he might rally during the night.

GRANDMA USED SAGE
 TEA ID DARKEN HAIR
She made up a mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur to bring back color
 gloss, thickness

Common garden sage brewed into a heavy tea with sulphur and alcohol added, will turn gray, streaked and faded hair beautifully dark and luxuri- ant, remove every bit of dandruff, stop scalp itching ana falling hair. Just a few applications will prove revelation if your hair is fading, gray or dry, scraggly and thin. Mixing the Sage Tea and Sulphur recipe at home, though, is troublesome. An easier way is to get the ready-to-use tonic, costing about 50 cents a large bottle at drug stores, known as ''Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound" thus avoiding lot of musS.
 While wispy gray faded hair Is not sinful, we all desire to retain our youthful appearance and attractive ness. By darkening your hair with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur, no one can tell, because it does 1t so naturally, so evenly. You just dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning all gray hairs have disappeared, and, after an- other application or two, your hair becomes beautifully dark. glossy, soft and luxuriant.

PLUMBER CAN WORK

In the opinion of Town Attorney Charles C. Woolf, plumber who has taken out his license in compliance with Ordinance No. 64 and who is properly bonded. whether such a bond is approved by the common council or not, can do plumbing business in Tempe. And on the strength of that H. Horrell, the Phoenix plumber, who was arrested last week by local plumbing firm, will probably continue his work on the T. H. Dennis resi- dence this morning. after the several days Iayoff. The complaint lodged against Horrell was intended merely to test Ordinance 64. Attorney Woolf, who is now on his vacation on the coast was asked about the matter and in a letter received yesterday morning he stated that Horrell could not be restrained from work if he took out his license and was properly bonded.

EXPECT RECORD
 DATE HARVEST
Greatest Yield in History Expected from Tempe Date Orchard This Sea- son-Picking of Delicious Fruit Starts Tomorrow.

The largest yield of ripe fruit in the history of the governent date or chard at Tempe is expected from this seasons harvest that is just now un- derway, according to Superintendent F. H. Simmons, who was in town yesterday afternoon with a crate of the delicious fruit, some of the first to be picked this year. MT. Simmons is optOmistic, he has worked with the orchard for almost a dozen years and during any one season he has never witnessed the pleasing prospects of a record breaking crop such as are pre- senting themselves now at the begin ming of the harvest.
 Already the Tempe orchard has the distinction of being the largest pro- ducing grove in the United States. Of the trio in the state of Arizona it is by far the larger.
 The Rhars will be the chief variety of the date to be picked for the next few weeks said Superintendent Sim mons. Tt is one of the earliest ripen- ing varieties we have and it's fruit is well off the trees before the other varieties are ripening at their best The Birker will be ready for harvest ing about the middle of the month. possible a little earlier and from then on through the next forty or fifty days there will be the busiest lot of pickers ever working at the date or chard," continued MT. Simmons.
 Seven tons of the delicious date fruit were harvested from the Tempe orchard last year. but a yield consid- erably in excess of that is anticipated this season.
 The fruit from the Tempe orchard is in constant demand. During recent years Arizona and California markets have been supplied and so large has been the demand there is little doubt but that the entire harvest this season will be consumed principally in these two states.

BOND ISSUE
 IS OPPOSED
Statement by Committee of the North Side Property Owners as to Result of Investigation Made of the Proposed Project.

| The committee of property owners north of the city appointed to make an investigation as to the proposed i bond issue of $1O0,000 by Electrical
 District No 1 has submitted the fol- i lowing statement:
 The election to authorize an issue | of bonds to install electrical service in the valley from Scottsdale to one and One-half miles west of Central avenue and from the city limits of Phoenix to the Arizona Canal, known as Electrical District No. l, is the one item of interest these days to the property owners of that district With few exceptions the voters near Phoe- nix were not aware that an election had been held defining the limits of this district, nor that a bond elec- tion would be held September 1st. In order to properly and thoroughly in vestigate the proposition a meeting of property owners was called last week, and after a discussion of the desira ble and undesirable features of such a bond issue it was decided to appoint a committee of 10 to more thoroughly investigate and report, if desirable, di rect to the tax payers. This commit tee met Saturday afternoon, and in or der to be thoroughly informed re quested the presence of every compe tent electrical engineer in Phoenix MT. w. H. Elliott of the Water Users Association, who has acted in an ad- visory capacity for the trustees of Electric District No. 1, being present
 From all the information thus se- cured, the committee sent out the fol- lowing:
 Phoenix. Ariz., Aug. 2s. 1915. To the Tax Payers of Electrical Dis
 trict No. l:
 Do you realize the consequences that will result from your voting YES" to the bond issue under cleo ton to be held September l. 1915? This matter was very recently brought to the attention of a number of tax payers of this district who de cided to thoroughly investigate the situation, the law, and what action should be taken in the matter. As a result. committee of ten was ap pointed to carry out the purpose of the meeting and to prepare report of it's findings for submission to the tax payers The undersigned. such committee respectfully report as fol- lows:
 F1rSt-That such district was formed under House Bill No. 90. in force March 22, 1915, T. T. Powers being it's author. The act provides for trustees who have unlimited power as to the affairs of the district and to issue bonds with the consent of the tax payers for constructing lines to convey electricity to residents and for other purposes appurtenant and to create deficite and certify same for taxation, which, together with bond is to be paid by assess ment against property in the district the same as state and county taxes, with liabilities and penalties incident thereto.
 Second@That the Handbook for Voters" circulated by said trustees is filled with alluring statements, and erroneous representa- tioNs, tending to mislead and misin form the tax payer and to lull him into a sense of security not warranted by the facts.

Another item of importance that should be considered by the tax payers | is the sinking fund of 5IS yearly to | pay the bonds at maturity. On a | s250,000 bond issue this would amount ! to $12,500 yearly and cause deficit of over s30,000 yearly to be raised by 1 taxation.
 | With high taxes and several bond issues already in this district, it is considered a very undesirable thing to add another big bond issue, partica- larly at this time. Many have ex- pressed themselves as opposed to so large a district and also violent oppo- sition has been encountered in the thickly settled districts adjacent to | Phoenix and along Central avenue north to the Country Club. These dis tricts are already supplied with cleo tricity and as their assessed valuation is high would have to pay a large proportion of the taxes for something they already have. Nothing could be more unjust and is in keeping with the methods employed by the men who have promoted the project.
 Every voter should vote at the election September 1st, next Wednes- day. If you are in doubt about your voting place. find out at once. They are as follows:
 Precinct No. 1, Madison School
 Precinct No. ?, Osborne School
 Precinct No. B. Creighton School
 Precinct No. 4, Balsz School.

 It is high time for the voters of the Salt River Valley to be voting for lower taxes and more desirable condi- tions if we want our community to grow. If you want to kill com munity saddle it with bond issues and exorbitant taxes. If you have the best interests of the valley at heart, vote NO" to this bond issue that you feel is detrimental to the best inter- ests of this great valley of ours.

of all property within the district is $5,04S.7S4, instead of in excess of SIC, 900, 900 as stated on Page of said handbook
 That the cost of the project neces- sary to serve the entire district will be approximately s25O,OOO, instead of $100.000 as stated on Page '.
 That the operating expenses per annum of less than $6,OO0 as stated on Page 5, will be at least SIP, ,000 per annum, which latter amount has been conceded a conservative estimate by the electrical engineer employed by the trustees.
 With reference to answer to Ques- tion 9, Page 5, we find
 (a) That the income derived from the project would be $7,5O0 instead of $15,000, for the reason that $2.50 per family is correct where the 1Oc rate is used, but where a 5c rate is used it would be $1.25.
 (b) The interest at 6lt on $25O, 900 of bonds being $15,O0O and the income being $7,5OO. an annual deficit of approximately $2O, 900 will result which must he provided for by increased taxation upon your property, which means nearly $1.00 per acre per annum for the entire district.
 We find in every 11-year period there is a depreciation of at least two- fifths of the cost of the entire project, which would mean q loss of approxi- mately s1OO.0O0 each II years for this system. Additional to the foregoing we find that before a resident of the district can use electricity his cost of installation for light and power purposes, exclusive of heating and cooking, would be about s200.
