The Late State Fair.

The successful Arizona state fair in point of attendance has been closed and thousands their way and remote parts of the state satisfied. think. that they have had good time d in the of many of them, profitable one. It may be that the stock exhibit not better than that of former fairs. There have been attrac- tive racing programs than that of the late fair The national automobile racing feature eliminated The mining exhibit thanks to the years develop in the mining industry in the state. much better than in any previous year and in general the exhibits marked improvement in all state n- dustries
 In all ways the fair was bigger and better and the purposes for which that institution created were better served The and women who have been coming the fair and taking active part in it year after year have each year brought n- creased stock of experience trade for the growing experiences of others.
 The greater attendance at the fair day after day may be attributed in great measure to the better times which have prevailed throughout the state for the last few months and the confidence that has been inspired that prosperity will continue.
 There is no other part of the country where it is sounder basis than Arizona.

Rival Kingdom Makers.

The central powers and the entente allies are falling over each other in their attempts to heap encomiums upon the Poles and give them independent king dom. The Teutonic allies have the advantage of proximity. They the ground ready to deliver the goods. France, Russia and England are in the distance without brilliant prospect of being able to engage in kingdom construction. They are lacking the material. It may be charged that it is no of another person In times past Robin Hood and other notable bandits did that and inspired the lnes What he stole from the rich he gave the poor" But the poor felt more grateful to the bandits and history has accorded them greater measure of virtue for giving something. whereas the rich would have given nothing.
 But to the kingdom of Poland Austria actually contributes territory of her share of the spells at the time of the dismemberment. Germany how ever offers nothing of her share of the loot, East Prussia.
 However, it is not good time for the allies to talk about giving away kingdom which is no longer within their power to give. Not hint from Russia of her kindly intent toward Poles until the time for its manifestation past; until Hn- denburg's drive was sweeping the czar's armies out Of the Polish provinces Then there talk in Petrograd of Polish autonomy under the supervis- ion of Russia
 We do not suppose that any of the warning powers have atruistic interest in the Poles Germany and Austria advantage in buffer state which they of creating state in which martial national spirit may be created linked to them by sense of national gratitude and capable of contributing power

LARGEST CROWD AT
 LAST CHAPTER OF
 SEASONS FESTIVAL

It was very fitting that the finale of The Festival of the Seasons should be shown to the largest of all the aud fences that had attended the perform ances, for last night brought a culmi- nation to the weeks pageants, and most acceptable, delightful consumma ton it was. All the pretty girls and young ladies that had participated in the evening performances during the week were on hand and it is quite fair to say that they crowded the stage. there were so many of them. The ef- feet of the colors of the costumes was entrancing. and the dances of the girls doubly so, because every one present realized that there on the stage were Phoenix gills lending their best en- deavors to make the Arizona State Fair of 1916 great success. Right well did they enter into the spirit of the affair and they marched and danced and danced and marched. onto the platform and off again. while par ents and friends applauded.
 Every little scene Of the entire week had short repetition. and every solo dance had little of it given. Plenty of grace and action. and no drags characterized this performance as did the former ones, the wonder was that the little tots could keep so much in their heads and not ro wrong. When finally all the solo dances had been done, the dancers faced the audience and each one carried d letter the whole Of which spelled out Arizona State Fair" Winifred Clarke, who partici- pated throughout the week as the Kings Fool'' was the master of cere- monies of this portion of the program. even to announcing the presence Of

WHOLESALERS
 0F GROCERIES
 ARE ORGANIZED

The organization of a Wholesale Grocer's organization. the first in the commercial history of Arizona was effected yesterday by represen- tatives of the leading houses in the state. The concerns represented and their representatives were Rabbit Bros, Flagstaff; David Baobitt and ster company Prescott; H. D. Ait ken; ;ioldman Grocery company, Phoenix; J. T. Melczer and E. D.

Hofmeister; Wakelin Grocery company, Phoenix, w. w. Edwards.
 The officers of the association are: President s. Fl Hofmeister; Vice president. E. C. Campbell; Secretary treasurer, ]. T. Melczer..
 This organization was effected be- cause of the unusual conditions af- fectiug the trade, among them the rising of food products. The purpose of it is to establish harmonious re- lations among the manufacturers, wholesalers and retailers in order that there may be as little lost motion as pOSSlDle ana mat the cONSuIueI Hlf get his goods at the lowest possible prices.
 Though all concers engaged in the wholesale business .n this state havt not been enrolled in the membership it is expected that they will become so enrolled.
 Another object of the association is the dissemination of useful informa ton among the members. Though nc 1 time has been set for the next meet ing announcement will be made .atei and it was stated that each meeting will be held in q different city. where Q member finn is engaged in business

No official canvass in this state of the election returns was ever awaited with great interest that which will take place tomorrow in the fourteen counties Heretofore unofficial have been sufficient to let us know who has been elected office and have left us with only mild curiosity. concerning majorities or pluraites.
 But this year popular doubt is entertained regard ing the the important state office. We only know that the candidates for the office of governor ran a neck and neck Mir.

 Nobody believes, though that the official count will finally settle the controversy; that it will only put up the other of the candidates the business of taking the next step. Without limiting election frauds may say that there rumors of irregularities on which an application could be reasonably based
 There is some doubt too concerning the fate of submitted measures It is known that the prohibition amendment has been overwhelmingly adopted and that all the ocalled Federation of Labor amendments have been overwhelmingly defeated.
 There is doubt to the result of the vote the anti-capital punishment we'll to the vote on the legislature redistrictng amendment which curiously received large majority in Cochise county. one which, under it. would lose repre- sentation in the legislature. At the same time Mari copa, which would have gained four members in the house appears to have given small majority against the amendment Though educational work attempted with respect to this measure than any other, it appears not have been understood. It encountered the opposition of democratic politicians and of labor leaders, of the latter it in conflict with their scheme for changing the legislature by the abolition of the senate
