Election Contests Filed Here

Last Saturday Attorney Frank E. Curley, of Tucson, was in Holbrook and filed two suits for a recount of the ballots cast at the general election last month, The little of one suit is Sam Proctor vs. Thomas B. Camp bell. In this case Proctor is un- derstood to represent Governor Hunt. The title of the other suit is Jos. F. Woods vs R. L. Newman.
 In the Woods-Newman suit the right to the office of sheriff of Navajo county is involved. The official count of votes in the county gave Newman a majority of 80 over Woods. It is under stood that Woods bases his re- quest for a recount on the report that there -,were irregularities in the Snowflake precinct. There Newman's majority was IA. Should all the ballots in that pre- cinct be thrown out Ga very inn probable event. Woods would have a majority; likewise Hunt would have a majority in the county.
 In Phoenix Tuesday the at torney for Hunt and Woods agreed with other attorneys for Hunt to have the suit started in Navajo county dismissed, in order that the ballots might be taken to Phoenix for inspection by the court of Maricopa county. Ar order dismissing the suits in this county was made Tuesday after. noon by Judge Sapp, in accord ance with the request of the at. torney in the cases. The bollots will be taken to Phoenix by Treasurer Richards when he re- turns from Los Angeles. to which place he started Monday night,

s. s. HYPRENATES
To FEED clicks

Big time Thursday for the Clicks
and the south end Hyphenates.
The Hypaenates, getting real chesty
over the new S. S. l. A. club house.
just erected in Beallview, decided to
have a dedication and they didn't
know any fellows better qualified to
assist at a regular dedication than the
Clicks, so they up and invited the
clicks to help dedicate. Any way
these south side guys owed the clicks
a party because the Clicks threw
party in their honor a couple of years
ago which cost the clicks about 500.
It's a waste of space to say that the
Clicks have accepted the invitation.
They never turn down bid that dont
cost them anything, and if the south
siders wanted to buy something for
them to eat and everything, they
should worry.
Today the clicks hired brass band
so they can hear ragtime if Bill Dun
ing's Maennerchor ever quits singing
long enough for the band to earn it's
salary.
The S. S. I. A. baseball team is 60
ing to play the Clicks team at 4
o'clock in the afternoon, following
which will be a raid on the commits
sary department.
