Dillon will have it's first opportun-
ity this year to vote under the Aus
trali9n ballot system. The statute
provides that the Australian ballot
system shall be inaugurated in ev-
cry incorporated town or city with
more than 100 voters and voting
booths will be used at Dillon, Latta,
Lake View and probably Little Rock
and Fork. The number Of registered
voters at Fork and Little Rock, un-
der the new enrolment, is not
known but If 100 or more voters
are registered at each Of these places
SSSSho Will nave 10 De
used. The ballots under the Austria
Han system differ from the regular
ballot In that they are numbered con-
secutively and the numbers must cor
respond with the numbers on the
club roll. NO one but the managers
Is permitted inside the booth and no
person is allowed to see the voter
cast his ballot. The numbered ballot
is handed to the voter and if he can
not read or write one of the mana
gers is authorized to read over the
names on the ballot and scratch
those for whom the voter does not
wish to vote.
So far the list of entries for the
several offices is small as compared
with previous election years. The
public is not manifesting much in
terst in politics but it is likely that
interest will increase as the election
draws nearer.
The county executive committee
Is holding session today for the
purpose of revising the rolls and
purgtng them of the names of those
not entitled to vote.

Frankfurter Zeitung, one of Germany's leading news organs.

The March number of the Bureau of Education journal, The Eskimo, as- serts that the belief is prevalent that Arthur Poorshruk. a Wales native who was reported missing some time ago. was the victim of snow slide. According to the Eskimo. Poorshruk left his igloo with a team of five dogs one morning some days ago for the purpose of fishing for tom-cod. That was the last seen of him. A snow storm came up that night and the next morning a number of his friends started out to search for the missing man. The searchers found the sled and dogs five miles from Wales on the shore ice but no sign of the miss Ing Poorshruk. The searchers went toward the hills and found that a great snowslide had occurred along the slopes of a mountain situated about five miles from Wales and 1t is surmised that the unfortunate native was caught by the descending snow while trailing fox along the mountain slopes. The villagers have practically given up hope that Poorshruk is alive. He leaves a wife and four children.

DRAF I CHANGES
 BOON TO STATE

To no local draft boards in the coun- try did the news of the action of con- gross in basing the future draft quo- tas on the number of men in Class 1 rather than on state population bring greater relief than those of Arizona
 Other states have large foreign pop ulation, but those states, unlike Ari- zona, have a considerable native pop ulation to fill the quotas regardless of the rule to base the quotas on the entire population. Arizona, with a small population. was being ''bled white" in several counties, and the matter of filling the quotas was caus- ing much uneasiness.
 ''The action of congress in changing the rule came not a minute too early stated a draft official yesterday. Tn some of the counties in this state there was hardly young man left in Class | l, and still the call came for more men. The new ruling will prevent a great injustice being done this state

TARDY RELIEF D|SCOURAG|NC
 I ] DA|RYMEN

On account of the slowness with which the government is moving to the relief of the dairymen many of tie men engaged iii that industry in this valley who were lately buoyed up by tr'1 pros pect of relief have relapsed into their former state of Encouragement and are gesting out. That conditions in all parts of the country are not so un- favorable is indicated by the fact that a man who recently came here from Kansas and bought a dairy herd has decided to take his COWS back to Law renee. Kansas, where he believes that the industry may be profitably con- dacted.
 A committee from the dairymen's as- snciation will call upon Governor Hunt within a day or two to urge him to include in his call for the special ses- sion of the legislature recommenda- tior for legislation to relieve the situa- ton in this valley.
 | The Maricopa County Dairymen's as- sociation recently adopted the follow | ing resolution with regard to the situ- ation:
 Hon. T. M. Riordan:
 Resolved by the Maricopa County l Dairymen'S association that your ac- tion in recommending to the National Food Commission that the price Of milk in the Salt River Valley be fixed to cover the cost of production to the producer is commended by this asso- citation, and for which this association, and for which this association desires to extend to you a vote of thanks for your efforts in our behalf.
 Resolved further-that your action in recommending an audit of the Paci- fic Creamery company's books to as- certain the margin of profit this com pany has enjoyed is further move in the interest of the dairymen that will have tendency to check the extermin- ation of the dairy business, and stim- ulate production in the future.
 II
 Be it further resolved-that your ef- forts in behalf Of a public hearing is ! especially appreciated by this associa- ton to the end that the general public may be fully advised of the deplorabl' : situation prevailing, and that the pro : ducer may receive early relief from al intolerable condition. , (Signed)
