CAN'T AGREE ON STATES.

Democrats generally have been hav
ing lot of fun with local leaders of
the Republican faith because of the
Natter's effort to fix UP slate for
the approaching primaries. About
half a dozen attended a caucus last
Friday night, but the Progressive
wanted most of the honors and it is
said the standpatters kicked over the
traces. AIT any rate full county
ticket Was not agreed upon, presum-
ably for the reason that nearly all
those that are registered as Republi-
cans want the honors, and there be-
ing two or three more registered thar
there are offices makes it very diff
ficult to satisfy the hungry horde -

Trifiing Wound Causes Trouble.

Mrs NJ e. Brown, of The Cooler,
sustained slight abrasion of the
skin of the two middle fingers of
left hand one day Last week while
handling the ice pick, but Thought
nothing of it at the time. couple
of days later, however these wounds,
t1ifling though they seemed ait first,
began to be very painful and inflam
ed, and otho wise show signs of in
fection to the extent that Mrs Brown
had to secure the assistance of Mrs.
Norman to attend to her business
In the absence of the local physician
home remedies We're applied, and,
while there seems to be no immediate
danger from blood-poisoning, the
wound is still painful

COLONEL BOOSTS PARKER.

Supervisor j III. Shanssey and c..
M. Hindman returned Monday. even
ing from a "trip to Parker on road
business, having made the trip in the
county car. Mr. Shanssey was very
much impressed with the mining ac-
tivity in the NORTHERN part of the
county He said yesterday that Par
ker was the making of one of the
best towns i'm the whole section OF
country where it is located, and that
already evidence of more substan-
tial growth than heretofore were
prolific. The thing he thinks neces-
sary to give the town the greatest
impetus In it's history is for it to get
out of the Indian reservation. he
says all over the northern part OF
Yuma county the mining activity is
simply wonderful. New properties
are not only being opened up but Old
properties which have long remained
dormant are being developed and
turning out mineral wealth. that Is
even a surprise to the most optlmis-
tic. He also spoke of Bouse, and said
i'm that country there was also evi-
dence of increased prosperity

REGISTRATION
CLOSES SEPT. l
INCLUDING SATURDAY, AUG. IL,
2,132 HAVE REGISTERED SINCE
BOOKS WE'RE OPENED FIFTEEN
WEEKS AGO.

The registration books throughout
Yuma county will close September l.
and will remain closed until after the
primary election, which is to be held
on September IL. If you desire to

sential that you register now.
During the fifteen weeks that the

and 127 in the Parker precinct.
These figures are up to August IL.
1t is expected that at least 500 will
register between now and the date of
closing the books ON September L.
The number already registered com
pares favorably with the registration
OF 1914, the previous one On Au-
gust %, 1914, total of 1928 names
appeared on the books For the 1916
registration to show a number equal
to the 1914 record when the books
on September l, an average of 25
per day must register from this time
forward The average for the past
number of weeks has not reached
this figure, but it is Thought the last
week before the first closing of the
books will greatly increase this aver
age, and that more names will appear
on the register for the first period
of this registration than two years
ago.
Politically the registration list is
divided as follows: Democrats, 1872;
Republicans, 406; Socialists, 81;
ProgressiNes, Is; no party, %; non
PARTISAN, Z; Independent. 6; Pro
hibitionists, 3; Progressive Republi-
cans, 2; none, 2.
In the figures given above there is
every indication that the Democratic
majority in Yuma county this year
will be the largest in the history OF
the county.
