PRIMARY LAW HOLDS UNTIL
 THE ELECTION
Recorder Vaughn Says After Primaries, Registration Merely Closes Few Days, But Law Relative Thereto Is Unchanged

The law that governs registration for the primaries will continue in eff feet for the general election.
 The question has arisen as to whetler or not an elector has to name his party utilization in registering af- ter the primaries. County Recorder Vernon Vaughn stated yesterday that the register was merely temporarily closed from September 1 to october IS but that the law remained un- changed and after the books were again opened the rule would be iden- tical to that already in effect.
 If an elector makes a no party af- filiation before the primaries at the primary election he can not vote for a primary candidate any more than if he registers republican he can vote for a democrat at the primaries. But l think all this is made clear in cir cular recently issued by me wherein I state:
 An amendment to the registration laws made by the last legislature pro- vides that the elector when register ing shall give his party. utilization, or say that he has none, if such is the case. According to the decision of the county attorney and concurred in by the attorney general, any elector re- fusing to give his party utilization can not register If he has no party affil- iation he may so state, and in order to register, this question in the reg l istration blank must be answered.

Nasty Withdrawal of Persh- ing's Men From Namiqui- pa Followed By Destruc- tion of Big Food Supply; Chinese Suffer
10000 MEN IN
 DUBLAN BARRACKS
Apparently Perm a ne nt Camp There; Wire Line to Columbus Reconstruct ed and Next Move May Be East Toward Railroad
BY JOHN SABRA

COLONIA DUBLAN, July II. Spec ial Correspondence)- )-After a hard and rough trip from Namiquipa and Fl Valle, the main body of General Persh- ing's forces are now at ColOnia Dublan. Every troop south has been moving north for the past two weeks. In fact there are no troops south of Fl Valle, except a couple of regiments of infan- try and one cavalry at and near that place.
 When we left Namiquipa, about 500 Mexican soldiers pulled in and took the town. They killed seven Chinese and took all their property. About 500 Mexican soldiers have been following us up ever since we left Parral.
 Fifty Chinamen have attached them selves to our command: they cook pies and other food for the officers, and every time one gets left behind the MeXicans slaughter him. At Fl Valle we took eight Mexicans. laying for some of the Chinamen.

MESA GIRLS WILL
 START LONC HIKE
All Swear They Will Walk for Miles and Miles, Seeing the Sights and
 Living the Simple Life

Equipped with high walking boots of the latest approved design and style, outfitted with a nail file, cam young girls all of Mesa will leave Phoenix Thursday afternoon, for what they claim will be a real long distance hike. one of the variety which lasts months and months.
 Jennie and Neva Lewis, Jennie be- ing the ring leader and spokesman for the trio, and Lucille Riddle compose the caravan which will wend its way across the Arizona deserts, mountains and valleys, towards the coast.
 Said Jennie yesterday afternoon, Were not starting out broke, you can bet your life on that But when we do get a little short on cash, we intend to sell pictures of the Roosevelt Dam, and boost Arizona, especially the Salt River valley.
 We are going to wear silk pongee dresses. and not carry anything more with us than is absolutely necessary. The nail file is a little bit of extra business that all girls must have"
 "Where are you going to sleep?' was the next question.
 Sleep" continued Jennie "Oh, well crawl into hay stack whenever we can find it, and if not sleep on the desert"

ENGINEERS DYNAMITE BRIDGE AND ROAD WORK AS TROOPS
 MOVE ID NEW DUbLAN BASE

headquarterS of the quartermaster generals corps were broken up. These are now located at Dublan. I believe the Fl Valle rear guard will be here in the next week Here, they have built barracks and fine quarters for the soldiers The engineering depart ment is constructing a permanent telegraph line between here and Co., lumbus, with iron posts, etc.
 Uncle Sam will have no more busi- ness south of here. At Namiquipa, our notice gave us but fifteen minutes to pick up and leave. The engineers then began destroying roads, dynamiting culverts and some fine concrete bridges, one of which had just been built We had been told to turn in everything but uniform, one blanket and four days rations. So, I lost my suit case, with everything I had in it.
 May Drive East
 While there is nothing definite to be given out, the gossip is that our next move may be east toward the rail- road. There are Mexican troops all around us, and we are under orders from the Mexicans to keep moving northward. The Dublan camp com prises something like 10000 soldiers.
 Terrible Waste
 In spite of the fact thousands are hungry in this vicinity, we burned | 50,000 pounds of hard tack and ninety tons of hay before leaving Namiquipa The United States could have had no way of distributing this food. so it Would fall into the hands of those ac tually needing it, and it was to pre- vent it going to possible hostile army that it was destroyed Fresh meat is getting pretty scarce.
 Rains Set in
 ! The rainy season has set in and we get a shower every evening
 | It is my opinion that if nothing hap ! pens to cause war, many of us will soon be back in~the states; but by the ! looks of the fine barracks here. it seems that some of the force will be kept in Mexico for some time.

Where the People
 May Have Hearing
The Ocotillo

To the Editor of The Republican:
 Sir: Ocotillo Spinosa from which chicllle and a kind of rubber is eX- tracted by boiling the woody stems, is not cactus. but simply a spiny desert scrub. like mesquite or any other prickly plant Botanically, it is Fouquieria Spinosa, named after a
 French botanist. Fouquier Your article in the Arizona Republican of July F To Extract Chicle and Ruh-
 Der from Ordinary Desert Cactus" is
 misleading.
 Now. ocotillo is no more a cactus
 than it is squash or pumpkin, while
 in shape, a squash less the spines,,
 resembles an Echinea cactus more
 than and ocotillo. The latter has
 hard wooded stems from to 12 feet
 in, length is very spiny and leaves
 out three or four times a year, i. Q. after heavy rains. A cactus has no leaves at all. so to speak. It is wrong to mislead thousands of our school children into the belief that ocotilio is a cactus. No more of such ignorance in an age of submarines and aerial navigation
 The editorial staffs of our press are not supposed to be versed in struc- tural botany, which only few stu dents of our colleges can master. It might be interesting that in central Mexico another species of ocotillo grows resembling our northern plant and difficult to identify. Some pros pectors use the bark of ocotillo which 1 is full of gum, for kindling fire on the desert in a erizzling rain and it will keep on burning for light cook l ing. l have tried it successfully, while camping out. and this should 1 be more generally known

Total Assessment ............s.
s.sO

The rate of taxation on each one hundred dollars assessed value of property in the city of Phoenix for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1917, will be eighty cents. This was determined at a recess session of the city commis- sion held yesterday morning, at which the budget for the ensuing year was adopted and the tax rate fixed. This is at least five cents in excess of the figure it had been expected would be decided upon, but 1t is still five cents under that of last year. Incidentally the item for general municipal and administrative expense is eleven cents lower than that of the preceding year, an indication of economy in the gen. eral operating expenses of the city. The ordinance fixing the eighty cent tax rate was adopted under suspension of the rules and with the emergency clause attached for the reason that yesterday was the last day under which by the terms of the city char ter, the budget could be adopted by the commission and the tax rate fixed by that body.
 Until yesterday it had been believed that the tax rate for the ensuing year would be fixed at seventy five cents and possibly seventy three cents. But 1t was found that the losing of the ! Schultz suit against the city, amount | ing to $l0000, as well as the matur- ing of several bonds, required provis- | ion for additional sums not included ] in the general or ordinary expenses. These, together with the necessity of making provision for the cash basis or revolving fund necessitated the in- crease over the figures of the first estimate. Other things being equal it should mean that the next budget and the next tax rate should be ma terially less than that fixed for this 4 year and even lower than that at frs estimated for this year.
 Among the additional items included J in this years budget was joint dona tion to the Chamber of Commerce ant the Arizona State Fair commission amounting to $4,OO0. About $8, 900 mus also be provided for employees indem
 nity insurance, while the principal an,
 interest on city hall bonds amount to about $16,000

A mo- tion directing the city manager to en- force this requirement was adopted It means that all resident users of water will be called upon to install meters at cost of a little over $10 and pay for water, probably on a basis of minimum consumption of 5000 to 5000 gallons monthly.
 Commissioner MacBean suggested that in order that the two new mem bers of the city commission could be- come properly informed on the Verde River water project, the city manager arrange for a trip of the entire com mission to the site of the proposed in- next ten days. A motion to that ef- feet was adopted
 An effort was made to revive the matter of the reimbursement of Messrs. Smith and Woodson for the taps made upon their private water main at Grand avenue and Olive street. The commission had previous ly directed that Smith and Woodson be reimbursed, $750 for each of the four taps made without written con l sent.

 Suffered Grievously.

In a letter to the American Ann bassador at London, just made public in this country, James Mark Sullivan. a one time newspaperman in this state later attorney at law and later still Ambassador to San Domingo. makes formal complaint to the American government concerning his imprison- ment in Dublin during the Sim Fein riots of last April. MT. Sullivan states in the letter that he was forced to undergo hardships and inconsider- ate treatment. Among the statements made by him is that he was coYnrell- ed to sleep for eight nights in a room with over 30 other prisoners, and as there were not even the most primi- tive sanitary accommodations, the same room had to be used as Q. lava tory by the prisoners. MT. Sullivan concludes by saying his health. as that of his wife, has been shattered as a re- suit of the experience.

Started Business With 19 Gents; Now
 Gives Away Riches

Bernhard Blitzer of the New York Gas and Electric Appliance Company. arrived in New York from Austria 30 years ago with 19 cents in his pocket. He invested his 19 cents in suspenders and sold them on the Bowery. Last week he distributed more than $15,000 among the s27 heads of departments and salesmen employed by the firm of which he is the president. MT. Blitzer told the story of his life last Sunday night at a dinner in the Hotel Belleclaire given by his firm to the travelling salesmen, and permission to print the story as told was obtained yesterday.
 'I came to America from Austria, D said MT. Blitzer, when about IS years old. and when I landed had just, 9
 cents. met an Austrian friend who ran small hotel near the Battery and he offered me room and meals on credit until I was able to pay for them. I accepted>his kindness, and
 with my 1s cents bought few pairs of suspenders, which peddled. When they were sold, put my principal and profit into suspehders and peddled again. I kept this up, always put tinS every cent or pront -nlo moTe stock, until I rose to the proud posi- tion of peddler-merchant In those days a peddler-merchant was one who had cart and paid a man $1 a day to push it while he sold merchandise" !" After a time, MT. Blitzer was able to pay his landlord in full, and some time later he was able to marry. From peddling merchandise he went to work for the Gas Company of New York. l and there he had his opportunity and
