SHERIFF CONTEST
 NEAR COMPLETION

The contest which Joe Prisk had instituted against J. c. Cohenour in an effort to have himself declared the winning Candidate in the neck and neck race for the sheriffs office, was opened last Monday morning, at which time three inspectors, G. A. Shea, J. H Rosenberg and Charles Lynch, began the task of checking up all of the bal lots which were cast in this county at the recent election, in an effort to determine just who really was elected to the office.
 The work of going over the ballots was done in the office of County Treasurer Devine, the legal custodian of the ballots. The handling of the ballots is not exactly for the purpose of making a new count of the votes, but primarily for the purpose of al- lowing the legal representatives of the contestants to view them, and note any mutilated or apparently illegal ballots, which in their estimation were sufficient grounds for change in the count of the total vote. AS the bun dies of ballots from each precinct were opened, they were carefully gone over and a list made of all ballots which were not contested by either of the and also a list of those which might be open to controversy.
 While not much information was al- lowed to become public about the count, it was stated, however, that in the Cyclopic precinct there was found six ballots on which the electors had for some unknown reason written their names before returning them to the board on November 2. Five of the ballots thus marked had been cast in favor of Prisk and one for Cohenour.
 The inspection of the ballots was on Thursday evening. There were about 50 of the ballots which were declared subject to contest by ,ne side or the other. The final count showed Cohenour to be ahead by nine votes, although the Democratic candi- late also declared that he believed that ne had a better chance to win than was the case before the inspection vas made.
 The case was submitted to the su- 1erior court Friday morning for the setting of a trial date, and the court that the matter will come ID again Monday afternoon at 1:30.

 It is expected that big treasury will be provided to make possible the exploration of the mines at Copper vile below the 500 foot level and to open up old ore bodies. From present indication the mines are sure to open up well below the present level, but it will take considerable money to do the work. John c. Hoffman is in charge of the property.

INDIA Is ON THRESHOLD
 IF 4 NEW INDUSTRIAL ERA

known as an industrial authority. The
 scope of inquiry is so comprehensive
 that it will take several months to
 complete the program laid out. In
 main the commission will prepare it.
 self to suggest the most profitable
 lines of action with the object of draw
 ing out capital now idle, of building up
 an artisan population, to carry on the
 scientific and technical researches re-
 quired to test the known raw materi-
 als and to design and improve processes
 of manufacture, of distributing the in-
 formation obtained from researches
 and from the results of experience in
 other countries, and of developing the
 machinery for financing industrial un- dertakings and marketing products.
 There are numerous industrial en- terprises which many feel may be en- parked upon proftably in the near fu- ture. Among these is the leather in dustry. India exports great quanti- ties of hides. Heretofore most of these have been sent to America and Ger many to be tanned, and it is said that there is no reason why some of this work should not be done at home. The other leading possibilities named in clude the expressing of oil from oil seeds, the manufacture of paper pulp, the making of glass, the production of dyes from the plentiful raw materials at hand, and the extraction of per fumes, essential oils and drugs. There is also room for great expansion in the iron and steel industries, which are still in their infancy, as we'll as in the smelting of aluminium, tin, zinc and copper ores.
 One of the important questions to be solved by the commission is that of what form government aid to new in dustries shall take. It is generally predicted that the government will be prepared to render technical assist ance, possibly through the establish ment of central research laboratories, and will also give financial aid in some form, either direct or indirect. That backing will be necessary to create confidence and draw out capi- tai, is generally conceded by most stu dents of the problem.
 Among the methods of government aid which have been suggest ed, and which will be considered by the commission, are these: Supply of ma chinery and plant by the government on the hire purchase system; guaran- teed dividends for a limited period, with or without subsequent refund to the government of the expenditure in- cured in paying dividends at the guaranteed rate; guaranteed purchase of products for limited periods; con ;esions of land; special railway trans port facilities and rates; bounties and pioneering industries and handing them over to private com 1anies, and loan of services of govern nent employe experts.
 In addition to it's other work, the commission will consider the vital mat 5er of India's trade policy after the var. In general it may be said that he members will look into the prob ems taken up at the recent confer 'nce of the allies in Paris. This ques- ion, of course, is not open to public iscussion at present, but obviously he future trade relations between In lia and the United States and other Ieutrals will form a prominent part of he deliberations.

 With the elimination of Charles
 Chick" Evans. the Chicago golfer and present holder of the title, whc will be unable to defend his title ow ing to private business affairs, Doug las Grant, the northern California champion. looms the favorite of the galleries as the probable successor tC the crown. Grant is playing at the top of his game at present and if Inc runs to his recent form in the tourna ment, his friends believe he stand an excellent chance
 Erwin s. Armstrong, the holder O the state title, is another coast playe who is conceded to be a dangerou factor in the final summing up. Arm strong won the title from such a ster ling player as Henrich Schmidt on tn, Del Monte course last year and sine, then his golf has practically alway. run equal to par. Last year at thl Western championships, held at thC Mayiield Country Club, Cleveland Armstrong did not qualify for tn, championship flight, but it was sait the conditions did not favor his stylC of play which is at its best on his nal i've sand greens which are characteriS tic of the Pacific coast links.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 15.-With the Fourth of July holiday behind them athletes of the Pacific Coast have set their eyes on the Far West ern Track and Field Championships which are to be held in August under the auspices of the San Diego eXposi- tion. This is the most important of the events in which local athletes will take part prior to the National Amateur Athletic Union champion ships in Newark, New Jersey, few weeks later Last year the Far Western Championships were held at the stadium of the Panama Pacific Exposition during the last two days of July and it turned out to be the most important meet ever held on the coast.

M'L0UGHLIN AND
 DAWSON FEARED BY
 EASTERN DOUBLES
Formidable New Team Ex- pected To Equal World Record Of Old Mclaughlin Bundy Combination

The success achieved by the doubles team of Maurice Mclaughlin and Ward Dawson who played together at the recent sectional tournament held at Long Beach, leaves little doubt in the minds of tennis follow CTS that this is the combination which will be seen on the eastern courts in the event that Mclaughlin finally de cides to attempt to regain his lOs' court laurels With Thomas Bundy out of the running because of business interests which demand his entire at. tention, Mclaughlin was forced tC look for a new partner The choice of Dawson was foretold some time ago owing to the fact that the two men had played together previously in tournaments and were thoroughly familiar with each others style. While Mclaughlin was not put to the test in the Long Beach tourna- ment, it served at least to show that in Dawson he will have a running mate who will prove worthy. Daw. son was made to bear the brunt of the attack in practically all the matches, opponents preferring not to risk the prowess of the former champion Dawson stood up we'll under the fire and critics gave him much of the ere dit for the victories won. Under the circumstances there was little oppor- tunity to get line on the play of Me Loughlin.
 In the finals Mclaughlin and Daw- son faced Thomas Bundy and Clifford Herd. It looked strange to the spec tators to see Mclaughlin and Bundy on opposite sides of the net after the many years that the two have played together during which time they gained the highest honors in the ten. his world.
