PASSPORTS ISSUED BY coURIs
Superior Courts Given Jurisdiction
 Except in Pima and Maricopa.

All superior courts excepting those of Maricopa and Pima county have jurisdiction over and can issue passports, it was said at the office of the clerk of the federal court yesterday.
 In Pima county and Maricopa counties, passports are issued at the federal court clerks office only, it was said definitely. There had been some doubt as to the issuance of passports there.
 All native born citizens of the United States wishing passports must go to the office of the clerk of the court for passports and bring with them their birth cer- tificate and three copies of their photograph. three by three inches in size.
 Those who are not native born, but are naturalized citizens, must bring three copies of their pho- tograph, and their naturaliza ton papers.
 These regulations are general throughout the state, whether application is made to county or federal courts. By the granting of jurisdiction to county superior courts, it is expected that con siderable delay and expense will be saved to those desiring pass ports, for they can apply to the nearest court, except in Mari copa and Pima county. In these counties they must apply to the federal court at Tucson or at Phoenix.

R. G. Brady has bought the old Inter Ocean ranch in the Catalina mountains from Tom Wills and associates and will stock it with cattle. This range joins MT. Brady's Three O. ranch on the south and will be a very valuable addition to Mir. Brady's range. In fact it will make him the best ranch in Southern Arizona. There is plenty of water and feed on this range and it will carry several thousand cattle the year round. Gentleman.
 At the Trench mine at liar shaw, in charge of John Hoy, there is considerable activity at present. The new machinery lately delivered has been install ed, and a 40 foot gallows frame has been erected over the shaft, which is now down 400 feet. The shaft will be sunk. at least POO feet deeper, although the equipment is capable of sinking to a depth of 1900 feet. The mine gives promise of early re- turns on the capital now being invested d.-Patagonian.
 The State Council of Defense has figures showing that Ariz ona this year will crop 1900 acres of beans, most of them of the pink and brown varieties, which can be grown successfully in the medium or lower attitudes where the soil is light and where there is an ample water supply. This production means 72 pounds for every man, woman and child in Arizona, if the crop be esti- mated at only 1000 pounds to the acre. Naturally there will be a very large surplus left for ship ping or for military uses, Ari- zona thus contributing another bit" for the war.
 Two stockmen from southern Grant county are preparing to ship their cattle into better range in Arizona. James Parks of Duncan will send his stock to some pasture land he has leased near Tucson. Dan Olney of Steins will ship his cattle to a point southwest of Tucson where he has obtained a state lease of a large tract of excellent graz ing land. Other cattlemen are making arrangements to ship out of the country during the drought while some are prepar- ing to make harvest of soap weed for their .stock.-Lords burg (N. M.) Liberal.

FREE FOR ALL RACE.

w. A. Moeur, commissioner of the state land department has entered the gubernatorial race in earnest, having been a re- ceptive candidate for some time. He is we'll qualified and if nom- mated, will run like a race horse. With Sidney P. Osborn, secretary of state, also in the running,it will divide the vote of Maricopa county very nearly equally between the two with the result favorable to an out side candidate. Fred T. Golfer of Apache, c. M. Shannon of Pinal and c. M. Roberts of Co., chise will likely be in the race and it is possible that Wiley B. Jones may conclude to put his name into the free for all jack pot. It is nearly year before election day and several others may get the feeling as the water is tine.-Messenger.

HUNTING FOR GRASS.

The great cattle movements from drouth districts over the country to other ranges has made a demand upon the rail roads of the country that they have been unable to supply. About 100000 cattle have to be moved from South Texas, and it is estimated that there will be a movement of 100000 from the San Angelo and Midland dis tricts and the scope of country intervening. Grass is being hunt ed for high and low. You meet cowmen on the train on the roads in automobiles, in the hotels, everywhere, hunting for grass. They say Arizona has more Texas cowmen in it than ever before. The greater part of New Mexico is in good con- dition, but there are some very dry spots. The railroad admin istrators of the country promise relief soon, and expect to de- spatch 5000 cars. We need them, and then some more.

Specimens of Ore Sent to State Fai

To Col. R. R. Richardson is due most of the credit for the mineral display from this dis trict at the permanent $50, ,OOO mines building at Phoenix, he having gone to consider able trouble and expense to secure some extra fine specimens from some of the properties in which he is interested and having them sent to the mines building.
 Among the specimens furnish ed by Colonel Richardson were the following: One from the Hardshell mine, two from the 3-R, one from the Flux, three from the Josephine Canyon group, one from the Arizona European.
 MT. John Hoy gave a very fine specimen of high grade silver copper ore from the Trench mine.
 MT. Frank Powers of the Worlds Fair was not on his property when a representative of the NogaleS chamber of com merce called, so specimen from that famous mine was not Secur ed for the state fair exhibit, but MT. Powers assured him that g. sample would be placed in the permanent display.
 Owners of mines should em- brace the opportunity offered by the state bureau of mines to ad vertise their properties by plac- ing specimens from them on dis play in the new building. The mineral wealth of Santa Cruz county is one of importance, and at this time, when the prices of metals are high and there is a great demand for them for use in the manufacture of war muni- tions, every effort should be made to bring to the attention of the men interested in the pro- duction of metals that Santa Cruz county is one of the richest mineral fields in the world, and needs only the capital necessary to mine at depth to prove that this is no idle boast.-Patago- nian.

Fall blowing should be con- tinued as long as the ground IS in proper condition, and as a rule soil is in better condition from breaking in the south dur ing November than any other month. Demonstration records collected by the department for several years indicate that deep fall blowing and thorough pre- paration of the seed bed have greatly increased the yield of all crops on the average southern farm. A cover crop of rye or oats may be sown after break ing, but where this is not prac- tical the land may be left in the rough until later, when the disk, roller, and smoothing harrow can be used to put it into con- dition.

BEST THEATRE.

Arms and the Girl" One of the beautiful and unusual sets used in the new Billie Burke picture, Arms and the Girl" showing at the Best theatre, is a Belgian marriage gard en. It is the custom in Belgian to have wedding ceremonies in pictures que and quaint gardens of flowers, usually adjoining, an old inn, and such garden has been faithfully re- produced for this picture, and for the maritge of sweet Billie, the heroine of the story. The garden in this in stance has walled court with real cobblestones on the ground which were laid by hand. It hos the ap- moss-grown and crumbling It is a beautiful background for the enforc- ed marriage of pretty Ruth Sherwood, the American girl, who is trapped in Belgium at the beginning of the war and finds this the only way of es- cape with life as we'll as honor. Bill lie Burke is delightful as the girl of America, and Thomas Meighan plays the hero, also an American. who has been arrested and treated as spy by the Germans. This romance is one of adventure and thrills with the spirit of the great war overlanging. Drama is found here in plenty, and yet the winsome comedy and sweet nes of Miss Burke, for which she is so we'll loved on stage and screen, finds natural outlets in the higher in cldcnts of the enjoyable story.

ORPHEO THEATER.

Norma Talmadge, Americas most beautiful actress, who scored such a triumph in "Panthea" and other screen successes, will appear in a modern society drama. "The Law of Compensa- tion," at the Orpheo theater today.
 Miss Talmadge will be supported by Chester Barnett, popular leading man, and an all-star cast. This picture is in seven reels and is conceded to be one of the best society dramas that has been produced this season and received the hearty praises of all the photopiay critics. Miss Talmadge wears some of the latest creations, and the stage settings are all in keep ing with the high class story.
 "The Law of Compensation" tells a double story. A young wife chafes at the narrow confines of the home, and is about to take step which may lead to disaster. Her father suspects that there is something afoot, and hurries to visit his daughter and tell her the story of her mothers life. The incidents are strangely parallel to thoae in the daughters own life, and she sees herself going through the 'di treseing mishaHs which were caused by hey mothers misstep. At the close she realizes the precipice from which she has been saved, and gladly turns back to her husband and child as the really important interests in her life
