Tennessee Troops Here.

Mclean, agent of the Frisco
here received notice that two
trains of Tennessee troops
would pass through a little af-
ter the noon hour Monday and
notified Messrs. G.. NJ. Crook
and j. H. Ledyard who imme-
diately took steps to inform
the citizens of the city 0 fthe
coming of Uncle Sans sol
diers. Announcement was
made at the churches that a
citizens meeting would be held
at five o'clock that afternoon
at the Red Cross rooms for the
purpose of taking steps to en-
terrain the soldiers while here.
Mr. Ledyard called the meet
ing together and Mr.. Crook
was made secretary. A call
for an expression from the
large crowd present as to how
the visitors should be enter
tanned brought forth the unan-
imous response that Tupelo
would give them the best din
ner that could be. served in the
short time in which the ladies.
had to prepare it.
The chairman appointed
the following ladies a commit
tee to call on the people and
request that baskets be sent
with dinner for the soldiers:

Baby Show Contest.

And the baby contest wound
up with all in a good humor.
Of course every mother believed
that her baby should have won
first prize that's mother.
The contest ended Monday
night, and } the following were
the winners: First prize of $40
by Bank of Northern Arizona
won by Eva, baby of Mr.. and
Mrs. Ralph Ramsay, receiving
351 votes. Second prize of 81 by
A. z. Palmer & Sons of Taylor
won by Frances, baby of Mr.. and
Mrs. C. H. Ballard. Third prize
of IS by H. T. & Farley Willis
won by Scott, baby of Mr.. and
Mrs. Hugh Willis. Fourth prize
of So by Denham Bros, Shum-
way, won by Harold, baby OF
Mr.. and Mrs. Nobel Rogers.
The count of votes showed
that the people voted as follows:
Baby Ramsay, 95a; Baby Ballard,
331; Baby Willis, 81; Baby
Rogers, %; Baby Gwen Willis,
26a; Baby Quence Dewitt and
Baby Phillip Campbell each re-
ceived 25 votes.
The public in general is very
we'll satisfied and feel that Mr..

is again governor of Arizona.
The Supreme court so decided
the governorship contest last
Saturday morning and Hunt as
sumed the office Christmas day
after an absence from the capitol
of about eleven months. Gov.
Campbell was allowed fifteen
days by the court in which to file
an appeal or an application for a
rehearing but George Washing
ton Peter couldn't wait and COM
menced business again at the
earliest possible moment. Gov.
Campbell was absent from Phoe-
nix when the decision was hand
ed down and before he could re-
turn to the Capitol and remove
his personal effects from the
governors office Atty-Gen. Jones
made several requests on the
governors private secretary to
make haste in leaving the office.
Governor Campbell has served
without pay and by the decision
of the court Hunt will draw his
salary from the first day of last
January and will recover all of the
costs of the contest which will
run we'll into the thousands of
dollars.
The decision means a mighty
upheavel in the politics of the
state. The Campbell appointees
rendered their designations to
him as soon as the decision was
made public and it is expected
that the Hunt appointees will be
reinstated Immediately. There
is talk of a special session of the
legislature to enact into laws
some parts of Hunts plans fail
ing at the regular session last
spring because of the contest.
The decision of the court was
written by Judge Franklin. Com
menting on the official returns of
the vote in Douglas, precinct No.
l, of which there has been so
much publicity with reference to
the misconduct of election officers
and the changing of the marks
on the ballots, he says: The
returns of the election board are
prima facie evidence of the num-
Der of votes cast for contestant.
To destroy the credit of the Off
cial returns there must be posit-
i've and unequivocal evidence of

stances of a case can be explain

faith that explanation will pre-
vail.

With reference to Pinedale and
Snowflake the court makes the
following comment:
The contestant urges that the
court erred in not rejecting the
ballots in the precincts of Pine
dale and Snowflake. The pro-
visions of the Arizona statutes
and the facts of this case seem
to place the precinct of Pinedale
within the rule laid down
in the case of Tebbe v. Smith,
108 Cal. 101. If the reasoning
of that case is correct, then un-
der the laws of Arizona Pinedale
would have to be rejected. In
Snowflake precinct the records
discloses apparent and many ir-
regularities in the conduct of the
election and in the matter of
election officers and others with
out authorization of law obtrud-
ing upon the secrecy of the voters
and unlawfully assisting them in
the preparation of their ballots.
Whether the penalties of the law
prescribed against such acts are
to be considered a sufficient de-
terrant, or whether under the
law it is mandatory upon the
courts to reject such precincts on
account of such practices, deem
it unnecessary to determine.
These precincts each gave Camp
bell a much greater number of
votes than were given to Hunt
and whatever might be determin-
ed would not affect the final
result of this case. If these
precincts are counted Campbell's
total vote will not be affected.
If they should be rejected Hunts
total vote would be increased by
a considerable number. "
