TOURNAMENT OF GUN
 CLUBS BEST EVER
Six Clubs Represented Fine Records Made P. A. Melick High Man

The tournament of Arizona gun clubs held in Williams last Satur. day was the most successful event of the kind ever held here. Better representations of other clubs had been hoped for, but all responded and sent good men. Dr. P. A. Melick of Williams was high man with a percentage of 97 for the ten events but H. P. DeMund of Phoe- nix and Ben Wilson of Gallup, N M., were close after him with 965 and 96 respectively. Of the 27 men participating Il made 90 or better and 21 made 80 or better. Of those shooting the full ten events the lowest percentage was 754. The record for full events as shown by the score sheet is on page five.
 The Williams men who slot made an average percentage of 86. The Ray Squad of five made an average per centege of S6. The four Phoenix men made an average percentage of 95, Of the single men represent ing clubs. Bruner of Los Angeles made percentage of S1, Wilson of Gallup made percentage of 96 and Francis of Flagstaff made a percentage of 83.
 The long runs of 50 or over, which secure recognition from the munitions manufacturers in the shape of a medal were made by H. P. and R. DeMund, I. L. Eden and D. E. Merrill of Phoenix, w. D. Finney, F. M. Gold and P. A. Mel ick of>Williams and Ben Wilson of Gallup.
 The local men are very we'll sat- isfied indeed with the tournament and think the result justifes the ex- pense and trouble of arranging for 1t. The invited clubs sent their best men as was natural and prop CT, and carried away honors which they earned by superior shooting

Three Train to Carry Sugar

Five thousand tons of Philippine sugar recently left San Francisco in three special Southern Pacific trains to help fill New York sweet tooth. The consignment is the biggest ever sent to this country from the islands and arrived here on the steamer "Hudson Maru." The slze of the shipment is due both to the higher price of sugar in the East and the market huc- tutations and at the same time the movement from the Philippines direct to New York is a new one in ocean and railroad freight an- nals. One hundred and twenty cars were required for the sugar.

A Luncheon To Be Remembered
 Mahll j..

4hSDO lld IeOoluSOl l o'clock luncheon last Friday was enjoyed by about 30 ladies of Will Hams. Sweet peas and daisies had been used with very good effect to decorate the rooms of the Robinson home and they were very lovely, commanding the admi ration of all present. Five Hundred, played progressively, and selections of vocal and instrumental music with which Mrs. J. w. Lee favored the company, enabled the ladies to pass the time pleasantly and all too swiftly. Altogether, the luncheon will be remembered by Mrs. Robin sons guests as an event of more than passing interest.

ONE COMMISSIONER |S
 ENOUGH FOR MAR|C0PA
Say P. J. Miller's Friends

P. J. Miller, candidate for the democratic nomination for Corpor. ation Commissioner, came to Ari- zona in 1883. He began his Ari- zona life as a miner and made his way up by hard work. After work ing for period in the old Orsoris silver mine he was employed by the government during General Crooks campaign against Geron- imo having charge of transportation and stores at Whipple barracks.
 It was largely thru the activity of P. J. Miller that the reclam- ation service was brot into Yuma county. He has been actively in- terested in farming, mining and general business in Arizona for many years He was a member of the state tax commission 1912 to 1915 and was very active in com polling railroads and other corpor- ations to pay their just share of the taxes. He has served Yuma coun- ty a number of years as clerk of the Board of Supervisors aud he has served the city of Yuma as a member of the common council. He is at present member of the State Board of School Land Ap- praisers.
 MT. Miller has travelled extensive ly over the State of Arizona and knows her people and their needs. His large business and civic ex- perience aud his thoro knowledge of the people and conditi ons in Arizona fit him peculiarly for the duties of the office of Corporation Commissioner. ,~
 The friends of MT. Miller urge that it would be bad policy on the part of the voters of Arizona to give Marlcopa county two of the three Corporation Commissioners. They believe that the remainder of the state should have two and they present the name of P. J. Miller as that of a. man who will worthi!y fill the place to be made vacant by the retirement of w. P. Geary of Cochise county.

The administration estimates the to-
tai revenues for the next fiscal year
at $762,0o0,000. They contend, how
ever, that the deficit will not be quite
as large as these figures would make
It appear because payment of some of
the governments bills can be deferr-
ed until later on. 1t will, however,
require an even more adroit exhibit
ton of juggling with treasury figures
than Secretary McAdoo has thus far
displayed to conceal the fact that
democratic economy" has produced
substantially a million dollar deficit.
Aftersthe election the public will be
permitted to know the extent of bond
sales which the administration con-
templates. Never before in the his
tory of the Nation has a single SEES
sion of Congress been so profigate in
its expenditures of the peoples
money. Probably it will be long be-
fore the voters will permit democrat
ic inefticiency to perpetrate such CO.
lossal economic plumbers as has the
present administration.
