New York'S Black Bass.
(FrO03 tho New York Sun.

Today is the opening Of the black bass season. The bronze packer has come to be regarded pre-eminently as the American game fish. Whether the angler seeks the game by still fishing, trolling, plug fishing, bait casting or fly fishing, he has a worthy foe to deal with.
 The black bass literally had to fight it's way to popularity. For thirty years ago, in some sections anglers using

STATE AND COUNTY TAX
 RATE TO BE ONE DOLLAR

The State and County tax rate for neyt year will be one dollar on the one hundred dollars valuation. The Board of Supervisors will meet Mon. day when they will fix this rate ac. ccrding to the findings of the State Tax Commission. which sat as a hoard of equalization at Phonix last week. in which the state tax rate was fixed at 39 cents. This makes the county rate 61 cents, which is con siderable reduction, due largely to the increased property valuation of the entire state, and the county in particular.
 This rate of taxation will be for general revenue purposes, the special taxes will be in addition.

A Patriot CD Who is "Rarins' to Go.

Patriot CD Who is "Raring' to Co.,
 Leslie M. Hardy, we'll known attor- ney of Nogales, is glad to see that the prospects are good for a higher age limit in the next draft, because he can get into it. Hardy says that his great est ambition is to start as a priva.e work his way up to top sergeant. His education and experience fit him for tLe officers training camp, but he just wants to be plain, everyday Sammie. Tombstone Prospector.
 Such talk as the above can be heard in many quarters since it has become a certainty that the draft age will be raised. These patriotic warriors who are now "raring" to go, since they are confronted with the cold proposition that they will have to go, must indeed be amusing to those sure enough, sol diers. who are already in. If Leslie and his kind have been so anxious to get in the fight as they now pretend to be, they could have already be. come trained soldiers. and perhaps something more than a top sergeant the heighth of the Nogales attorneys ambition. The age limit for voluu. teers has not teen raised. It has al ways been up to 45. and the war de partment has been calling for the Leslies of the country ever since the United States entered the war. The ! Leslies are all now "raring" to go.

AN OPEN LETTER TO MESSRs. JONES & HAWKINS, CANDID ATES FOR ATTORNEY GENERAL
Prescott, Ari,z. Aug. z, 1918. -essrs. Jones & Hawkins,

Prescott, Ari,z. Aug. z, 1918. Messrs. Jones & Hawkins, Sirs:
 lenge to a joint debate, yet you have the audacity to remain in the face for Attorney General of Arizona.
 Are you afraid to present your claims and merits to the people by way of joint debates. I notice in your campaign adver- tisements that both of you pretend to be great lawyers; both of you would like to have the people believe that your legal ability is wonderful and unprecedented. One of you claim that he procured statehood for Ari zona, got woman suffrage and knock ed out bootlegging. What insuffer able rot, If said individual ever put over anything outside of political bunk, it is news to me and the gen. eral public. Did he ever assist any County Attorney to enforce the laws? In Yavapai county, since O.. ty Attorney, several private counsel had to be employed to assist in prose ;atibs Criminal Cases, yet the pres ent Attorney General never assisted in any of the prosecutions. When I am elected Attorney General of An zona, there will be something doing all the time, and County Attorneys Will br assisted by me if all import ant cases,
 | ~Jh .a11 xl he never lost suit in Arizona: Will he please tell us what he ever had in rhe Supreme Court of this State? I pause for a reply. Tell us, please, or forever cut out your wind d-jamming
 This fellow has been in Arizona only few years, and during all that 1 time has been a pestiferous, paren- nial candidate for some office. un- derstand that he sucked the political teat dry in Texas where he camefrom The other fellow is no better. For nearly thirty years he, too, has been sucking the political teat in Arizona. He will, however, be jared loose this fall
 My platform denounces barnacles, and that plank certainly applies to
 both of my opponents. The voters , of Arizona are surely getting next
 to these political Siamese twins, and
 no amount of camouflaging on theil
 part can put either of them over agaiI for any political office.
 I am in this fight to win, and tn, people are for me. Watch m! smoke on primary day.
 Yours for "Loy and Law Enforce : ment."

DIME HIGHWAY CHOSEN
 AS ALTERNATE ROUTE

Dell M. Potter, who is in Shereve pert attending the meeting of the Southern National Highway Associa- tion. wires W. B. Kelly, president of the Greenlee County Chamber of Commerce, that he has succeeded in having the Dixie Overland Highway Association adopt our road as an al ternate route of the Southern Nation al Highway from the southern states to the Pacific coast.
 This has reference to the route through Graham, Greenlee and Gila counties to Phoenix. It is presumed that this action means that of the two routes, Greenlee has the best prospects, as the maps and literature will easily convince the association of the advantages of this route over the lower route, which is by Douglas, and through that section of the state. lAr
 The designation of our road as the alternate route to the Pacific coast will show the many advantages of this section, and this section will be the recipient of much valuable ad- vertising from the association.
 It is practically certain that the route has been established to Fl Paso, and the contest will be over the proposed routes west of the Texas city.
 MT. Potter is one of the best road men in the west, and has been un tiring in his efforts to secure na tional highway through Green1ee county. To him is due the credit oi the splendid road system of Greenlee county, more than to any other indi viduaI. Every man in this county and all of Graham and Gila counties are. standing squarely behind him iI his efforts to have our route desig mated as the one to the Pacific. He sends congratulations to this county which all extend to him, because fl is to his efforts we are thus favor ably situated.
