LITTLE INTEREST TAKEN IN ELECTION

MESA, Sept. 12.-Election day passed very quietly on the south side. A visit to the various precincts indi- cated very sluggish vote. evidencing apparently but a slight interest on the part of the people in general. though here and there a few perspiring in dividuals rendered themselves un- necessarily warm over the virtues Of their respective friends who were let ting the office seek them.
 Discussing this apparent indiffer- ence with various people wha had taken the trouble to come out and vote, the prevalent idea expressed, was to the effect that there were much more important things going on just now, than this primary election, and these more important events were, with the speakers, the gathering of their crops and the great war.
 1 fthe entire state may be judged by the south side, the total situation may be summed up in the statement that while. some of the candidates will be somewhat sore in spots, the citizen ship in general will wag along about like usual.

 Mr.. Woolf stated that corporation commission allows the company a profit of per cent on the investment and per cent on the capital, and that for the past r months they have lost the sum of $9,100.
 pr. B. B. Moeur, who is a stock holder, said it was his belief that un- less the increase is granted the gas service would be discontinued.
 The people voted that the chair ap- point a committee of five to serve with the council and demand of the corporation commission that they re- fuse to grant the increase in ratio at this time Also that they compel the South Side Gas X Electric company to furnish gas containing 500 to 700 heat units, as is required by law, in stead of 100 to 150 heat units as has been furnished the past two months. Also that the service on electricity be improved to such an extent that the people of Tempe would not be in dark ness AZ times, as was the case in Au- gust.
 The chair appointed MT. Koontz, Jim Goodwin, R. B. Beckwith, A. S. HerZ- berg and c. M. Celeya to serve on this committee, and made the request that all persons who can possibly come will be present at the hearing this morning at 10 o'clock at the city hall.
