The recommendation of Hon. Sidney P. Osborn Secretary of State in his annual report that before a chaffeur should be granted a license to drive a car, he should first be required to pass examina- tion to his fitness for the position, is a recom- mendation that should be acted upon promptly when the next legislature convenes. It is an excellent saftey first proposition.

Greenlee and Graham counties can reduce the expense of the Superior Court in these counties ore-half by consolidation of the two counties into one district. This is a matter that should receive the attention of the legislators from Graham and Greerlee counties in the next legislature.

In the games played todate the Ray Miners have won three and lost three to the Millers and have won four and lost one to the Shelters. While the Shelter has been easy pickings for the Miners they have more than held their own against the Millers, win ming three of the five games played.
 The Millers have beaten the Miners every time they have played in Hay den, and the Miners have won every time the Mill has played in Ray. It has not been definitely decided as to who will run the Ray club, now that Hester has left.
 Shortstop Boekel, of the Shelter. and Pitcher Red" Toner, of Miami, joined Hester in Phoenix and will make the trip to Great Falls with him.
 Elliott Dent, of the Millers has been made a good offer to join the Denver club of the Western league.

A Little Knocking On Roads
 Convicts Shifting North; Yuma Howls!

A good deal of quiet amuse- ment has been had-especially among newspapermen-over the road situation in Yuma county. When folks get indignant, that often is funny. And that is the way with Yuma county folks. But everybody in the state who has to travel roads, will sympa- thize with those Yumans.
 It's about the conviets, who were not permitted to suffer the perils of sunstroke while working to finish the Yuma Phoenix high way.
 Boss Eddy, of Riiey's garage in Yuma, writes something in this sarcastic manner relating to the incident:
 "WeIl, see the prisoners have again gone on their vacation and we are still raising a h. of dust down this way. hope to see some road between here and Phoenix within the next decade, but guess we will have to do the building, if it is done"

 Pitcher Lush worked four innings for the Millers against the Shelter and although four runs were scored on him. he pitched good ball and will be a valuable man to have, as he can play first base or the outfield and is a good hitter
 Flame" Delhi is pitching great ball for the Miners. His slow ball is a dandy. Although it comes up to the hatters as big as a barn, all they can do with it is to pop up, or ground out
 Manager Arbogast, of the Millers, has been laid up with fever and has been unable to go to the ball field. Payless has had charge of the club during his absence. On account of Arbogast's illness the Millers were forced to change their lineup. Car 1 isch went to first and Pete" Wacob i caught. Although this was Wacob's 1 first game, he sure caught a fine game. He threw out one runner and 1 got one hit out of three times at bat 1 With a little more pep and fight Pete would be easily the best catcher in the league. He has grand arm is q good receiver and all that he lacks is aggressiveness.
 Schlitz in right is starting to hit He has ficlded good ever since re- porting here, but his hitting has no heen anything to speak of.
 Manager McMurdo is doing som' tall hUstling trying to land short stop to take the place of Boekel.

It has been called to the atten- ton of The Republican that roads where roads are most needed at this time of the year, are rotten. The Yuma route, an outlet to the coast. is dusty and rough. On the road to Prescott, the Aeua Fria crossing is especially bad. Both should be heavily travelled roads at this time of the year.
 Yuma county is building a new road between Agua CaIiente and Palomas, and another stretch of the old road between Palomas and Yuma is being repaired. But the convicts are not doing it. They have been sent north, where the counties already have the most spIsndiferous road system in the state. But there are votes, even where the roads are bad.
 The new plank road between Yuma and EI Centro will be open shortly.
 But that won't help Salt River valley people get to Prescott com fortably and safely for Frontier Days.
