HUNT CONTEST
 ONLY STARTING

PHOENIX, Jan. 15.-The Hunt Campbell contest proceedings await the preparation of the case of the contestant. Contrary to the popular opinion the contest has not yet really begun. Only an inspection of the ballots has been had and that was all that was prayed for in the original complaint of Governor Hunt. His inspectors and clerks are now engaged in going over the figures disclosed by the Inspection and on them will be based specific allega- tions in the complaint It was stated by the governors representatives that the complaint would not be ready for some days, probably a week.
 The case for determining the right of Governor Campbell to take of flee on his certificate of election is apart from the contest and Is now under advisement in the supreme court. No hint has come from the court as to the time when an opfn- ion will be handed down.
 leeIsiaturs to Disregard Tanets et The legislature at the beginning of the second week of the session indi- Icated today that it would proceed in disregard of the gubernatorial situa- tion until it reached a point at which the approval or disapproval of leg [islation would become essential.
 It was stated by President Clar- 'idge of the senate and his view is concurred in by the leaders of the house, that members should pro ceed with the introduction of bills. 1t is expected that by the time they reach the state of third reading, the status of Hunt or Campbell will have been at least temporarily deter mined. The question of the salaries of the members and attaches is a different matter, but as nothing can be done about it their pay will have to accumulate. There was a gen. eral belief that the supreme court would hand down an opinion this morning on the Hunt-Campbell man. damus case, but there was no meet ing of the court and no intimation was given out as to when deci- sion would be rendered.
 Stl Sets Wage of Women at SIP Several new bills were introduced in each house today. One by Mrs. Mckay of Cochise county fixes a minimum wage for women at SIP a week. A bill by MT. Edwards of Yuma adopts as the state flag for Arizona the flag of the battleship Arizona A bill by MT. Lines of Gra- ham makes the leasing of premises for designation or prostitution a misdemeanor and provides for pro- ceedings against such places by in- functions. Another bill by MT. Lines clarifies the present law for the election of members to count boards of supervisors by supervisorial dis tricts.
 In the senate, MT. Kinney, of Gila, introduced a bill creating the offices of city clerk, marshal and engineer in towns where no provision is made for such officials. President Clar- idge brought in a bill for the bet ter protection of birds and animals other than beasts of prey in state game preserves. After session of an hour each house adjourned to 10 o'clock tomorrow morning.

LARGE AMOUNT IF BOOZE SEIZED
 IN RAID
Officers Raid Newtown Joint and
 Secure Five Truck Loads of Liquor
 Whose Value Is Estimated to Be Close to $7,0o0.

On "Wednesday afternoon the Sher- iff's office in the county court house
 resembled a wholesale liquor house
 when five large auto truck loads of booze confiscated in a Newtown Mo renci raid were lined up outside of
 the building. Many spectators were present to watch the transfer of the wet goods from the trucks to the in- terior of the jail building.
 The booze was not of the bootleg variety, but high grade stun war
 ranted to tickle the palate of a con moisture. Among the goods seized were four barrels of wine, between fifty and one hundred sacks of good old Budweiser and case upon case of really palatabls whiskey, Gordon gin
 and cordials of all kinds, showing that the owner intended to conduct give his customers the best to be had. 1. is now permeated with the aromatic odor of spirits and it is said that the
 inmates are now enjoying long dis tance jag.
 The liquor was the property of Eco.
 Porras of Newtown and was taken from a tunnel back of his place of
 business. The officers had had the
 place under surveillance for some time and Deputy Sheriff Clark, who
 was watching the place, saw Mexi-
 can emerge on Tuesday afternoon with bottle of whiskey. The man was arrested and promised immunity | from punishment if he would tell | what he knew about the place. 1 Two guards were stationed around
 the place Tuesday night and on Thurs day the liquor was brought to Clifton | for safe keeping.
 The officers also found six big | trunks in the tunnel which were half
 filled with blankets and quilts which gave mute evidence that Porras had
 been engaged in the importation of the coatra5and for some time. His partner, Manuel Lamas, was brought
 here from Fl Paso and will have his hearing on Saturday. Although it is
 understood that he was heavily armed
 when taken into custody, Porras of fered no resistance to the officers.
 The officers connected with the raid
 were Sheriff Slaughter, Undersheriff
 Gravely, and Deputies Bass and Nicks, and Deputy Clark of Morenci.
 A conservative estimate places the
 value of the liquor seized at S7,000.

SCHOOL CLOSES
ON USUAL DATE
1T HAS BEEN THE MOST sue
cESSFUL YEAR IN THE HIS
TORY OF THE SCHOOLS.

After a session noted for being the
most successful in Glynn countys
public schools, ali the places of learn
ing in this city and county will close
on June Z, to resume on the usual
late in September
Never before has the attendance in
The white schools passed the thou
sand mark, but it has this year,
reaching a total of 1,05G, as against
80 last year, and more would have
been added to the schools, but for
the fact that every desk has been
occupied and something over 30 pu'
pills were denied admission for the
reason there was no room. II is also
known that many newcomers would
nave sent for their families, but
learning of the crowded condition OF
the schools, decided to wait until
next spring when it is thought there
will be ample facilities provided for
In the colored schools, the condi
ton is also crowded. In these schools
in Brunswick something over $50 are
attending. and two sessions are be
ing held daily in order to accommo
date the crowds.
Under the circumstances. Supt. Bal
lard and his corps of able teachers
have done exceedingly well, better
perhaps than the average educators
could have under the circumstances
It is hoped that this will be the last
year they will thus be handicapped
