the meeting of the board of directors Tuesday last, it is reported that upon recommendation of the chief counsel the secretary threw out the third set of recall petitions, alleging ''insuffi- ciency,' though refusing to state wherein the petitions were insufficient This so exasperated the minority" members and the spectators that the secretary found it convenient to make his escape out the back door, jumped into machine owned by the district and made his escape to Mexico, upon the recommendation, so the minority" directors claim, of the chief counsel, who said he assumed all the re- responsibilities for his advice, but had no apology to make to anybody" It was at this juncture that violence was threatened the chief counsel. The meeting quite naturally broke up in row, but not until another secretary had been elected, which makes three secretaries for Imperial district in 1 less than three months.
 A meeting of the board was sched- uled for 10 o'clock this morning in Fl Centro. A mass meeting was called for at the same time, and the two directors who were here yesterday were free to admit that drastic" and prompt action would be taken if there was any further evidence that the majority" intended to further mon- ] key with the buzz-saw.

GLENDALE, Ariz., Sept. 29.- Speaking before the largest gathering of representative citizens ever assem- bled here for a political meeting, Hon. J. H. Bibbey, Republican candidate for United States senator; Tom Camp bell, Republican candidate for gover- nor, and the other members of the state ticket forcibly drove home the convincing arguments in favor of a per manent constructive government of Arizona's affairs.
 Governor Kibbey briefly reviewed his long career of public usefulness in behalf of the people of Arizona, and told of his long fought legal fight to protect the water rights of farmers here in the valley.

SUMMARY OF WEATHER AND
 CROP CONDITIONS IN ARIZONA

The cool, dry weather of the past week has been favorable for the gath ering of crops, for the seeding of wheat and other winter grains, and for the curing of range grass. In the mountain and plateau districts the vegetation is being slowly killed by light frosts. In the northern and eastern portions of the state practical ly all crops are out of danger from frost. Ranges and cattle are in ex- cellent condition.
