PROTECTING SOUTHERN
ELECTION FRAUD

The corrupt practices bill is again
before the Senate even more drastic
in its provisions than before it was
recommitted to the committee for
extensive revision. Much space is
wen to an exact definition of the
various terms used in the bill. For
instance, "person" is defined ne a
private person, firm, association
corporation, or committee. Another
section in the bill provides that no
"person" shall make any disburse-
ment of more than $50 for the pu--
pose of influencing an election. Tha,
DIVISION, if enacted into law might
put out of business several news bu-
reaus, located in Washington and
elsewhere, which disseminate news
favorable to one political party or
the other, but which are not, in the
ordinatry sense, political Commits ,s
Or associations. The bill, bein-. "a
thHr,t by a Democrat from OEiaho-
ma, where they boast that 60 per
c'nt of the negroes are prAvcrtc..
from voting, of course contains no
provision for the proper enforce
'ent of the Fourteenth Amendment
the Constitution, the disregard Of
which in the Southern states is the
ost glaring fraud now being prac
iced in American politics.

i will be thankful for a reply to
the following questions thru your
paper First, in order to locate
dead cylinder in my motor, which is
: Buick Six, | have adopted the fol
owing method: l disconnect all but
1ne spark plug from the distributor
hen | crank with starter. If that
cylinder fires and runs the motor,
hen disconnect the next, and so on
hruout the six cylinders, thereby
ocating all misfires due to poor
0mp....resson. / have been inform
that there is danger in this meth
d of burning out my ignition or
transformer coil. If my informant
is correct please explain how this is.
Second on examining valves for poor
oppression, | frequently find car
3on, find it is not always necessary
o grind valves.
Now, instead of removing valves
md cages from cylinders to clean
them, would it not be practicable to
'emove only the rocker arms, and
with socket wrench made for that
nurpose, place it on top of valve
stem and give valve a few turns
nth a grinding motion, thereby re
rowing carbon and cleaning valves
Df course, | am aware the valves
must be ground in occasionally.

 BE BEAUTIFUL

The new Arizona automobile license plates for 1918 are now being issued the first having been given out yester- day at the office of the secretary of state The new plates are of hand some battleship gray background with letters and figures in king blue. They are a pleasing relief from the 1917 license plate which are in black and white
 Twenty five thousand of these 1918 plates have been ordered by the secre- tary of state, but it is not expected that that number will be nearly sufficient to supply the Arizona people who will drive motor cars during 1918. The plates are manufactured in St. Louis and cost the state 26 cents each, an in- crease of 9 cents per plate over last year.
 Attaches of the office of secretary of state were yesterday busily engaged in sending out to every owner of a motor vehicle license, as the records show, an application blank for the new l license plate and also a letter of in l struction. The total number of motor vehicle | licenses issued in Arizona during the l fiscal year of 1917 which closed on Sat urday night was 19,900 an increase of 7,776 over the previous year, total of which was F, ,124. In addition to these, there were S6S motorcycle licenses is sued with S06 for 1916.
 In the amount of fees received by | the state for motor vehicle licenses during 1917 Arizona is richer by s109,- 2S5. In addition to this, motorcycle licenses brought in si,vli. for transfers of licenses. $1.545;. extra plates and badges sold, s649; chauffeurs licenses issued, s4553: making the total receipts for the fiscal year of 1917 amount tt s117,643.

The soldier husband in his khaki, just as he had arrived on a hurried journey from Camp kearney, bore mutely the great sorrow that had laid so heavy a hand on his life's S bright morning. The mother of Mrs. Nicoll had been summoned from her home in oregon and had been at the bedside of her daughter for several days.

 Any .nstallment subscriber to Lib erty bond who has placed his sub scription through a local bank should make his 40 per cent payment imme- diately. By so doing he will aid the banks and also aid the government.
