RULING OF STATE
 SUPREME COURT CONTESTED
(From Saturdays Daiiy)

The Arizona Power Company, which was recently held by the State Supreme court to have violated the State law which requires company to pay off its men at the time the latter are discharged, has signiiied its intentions of carrying the case to the United States Supreme court for the purpose of testing the validity of the statute under which the company was convicted.
 The case was first tried in the Yava- pal Superior court, the company hay ing been adjudged at fault. The ac- ton was later taken to the State Su- prcmc court, with the result that the decision of the lower court was up held. and the power company directed to pay the fine of SlOO which had been levied against it in the Superior court. However, believing that the measure in question is unconstitutional, the power company has decided to make test case of it by taking it to the highest court. According to the be- lief oi the company, the law IS class legislation in that it provides that a corporation must pay off an employc at the time of the lattcr.s discharge, but does not provide that an individ- ual must make q similar payment when his help is discharged. There fore, reasons the company, the law iS onc which will affect some parties and not affect others, making it class leg islation and hence unconstitutional.
 An appeal to the United States Su prcmc court is now being perfected.

 There arc more departments in the State fair this year, November l2-T, than ever before and everything indi- cates that each department will have a general representation of surpass- ing excellence. That, however, should deter no one from entering On the contrary it should be an encourage mcnt. The general entries close on November 3rd but livestock and agri- culture are held open later, together vith some other specials. In point of agriculture there should be a tremen- dous display this year with counties competing that have never competed before.
 It is understood there are hundreds of fine exhibits shown at the sectional fairs, designed to be sent to the State fair, the entries for which have not yet been received. HURRY is the big word now Send in the entries promptly and let the articles follow, textiles and whatever they may be If the exhibitor can do no better send l letter, get the name and nature of the exhibit on the books and get the tags later when the articles arrive. Many of the best exhibits are crowded out annually by the thoughtlcssncss of those who would show had they been prompted at the last minute. Get busy everybody.

RECEPTION GIVEN TO
 DEPARTING COLORED BOYS
CFrom Wednesdays Daily.)


 The banquet rendered the special contingent ol colorcd men of Yavapai county al Doughcrty hall by the citi- zcns of Prescott Monday evening was a success in every way. It was beau tifully arranged, not the slightest de- tail being overlooked by those in charge 10 make 1t a fitting tribute of love, respect and honor for the boys going to the front. Long tables laden with choicest food, fruit, flowers. Old Glory showing from every nook and corner, busy, earnest women, old and young, who spared no effort to see that everyone was served, and that everyone was happy, made ncvcr-to- bc-forgottcn picture which time can not erase.
 The speakers, r. W. O'Sullivan, Neil C Clark. F. C. Whisman, w. W. Matthews and Leonard Harris, surely caught the inspiration of the moment, and as the record Of the negro sol dier was rchcarscd, enthusiastic cheer ing by the large and apprcciativc audi cncc and soldier boys often stopped the speaker AIr. O'Sullivan's favor able comment on the law-abiding negro citizens during his incumbency as county attorney made personal impression which will long be rcmcm- bercd
 Heart and art were so intcrminglcd in inc entire affair that 1t Is difficult to single out any special feature, but the beautiful piano solos rendered by Miss Mamie Lindcll deserve special mention. The toastmastcr, W. D. AlcNandcr, conducted the large ban quct in a most busincsslikc manner.
 Not a member of the large audience could hear these earnest addresses by these talented men, could listen to the inspiring music or join in singing America" and not feel proud that he was citizen of Prescott, and oi the United States of America.
 While there were originally II col orcd men drawn from this county, the party which left yesterday afternoon for Camp Funston consisted of but seven. the remainder of the contingent having been allowed to start from other points on transfers issued by the local board. The seven who went from Prescott were the following:
 Charles C. McClcndon, Clarence T. J. Gray, Walter NJ. French, Robert E. Singleton, Thaddcus A. Gailiard, Joseph Smith and Theodore French.

 REPAIR ITS AEROPLANES
(Flom Fridays Daily.O

The United States navy IS just now making a special effort to enlist men with knowledge of certain trades which will fit them for positions in the aviation department of the service, according to word received here yes tcrday by William Sieckmann, local recruiting officer for the navy
 While the department does not promise the men who enlist in this branch of the service that they will be allowed 10 become aviators, it does agree to place the skilled hands in the section of the service which has charge of the repair, building and maintenance of the acroplancs. The ranks of the birdmcn proper, arc com plctcly filled at the present time, but d large force of expert repairmcn Is needed to keep the numerous ma chimes in repair. The call asks for men familiar with cabinet work for repairing propeller blades, pontoons, etc, and also for men skilled in the handling and repair of the silk fabric which Is used in the wings of the planes. Some of the men may be given chances 10 fly, but they will be required primarily to look after the machines while the latter arc not in use.
 Men who are familiar with gas en- zine repairing arc also desired, and all who enlist for this service will be immediately transferred to the naval flying camp at San Dicg" Applicants Tor such positions must be between the ages ol T and 5 years.
