THOUSANDS TO
 WITNESS HOPI
 INDIAN DANCE

LOS ANGELES, Aug. A relic of their barbaric past, yet such part of their tribal existence that it can not be discarded, the annual snake dance of the Hcpi Indians will be held this year August 20 and September 6 at the Hopi Indian reservation in Eastern Arizona, according to an an nouncement made here recently.
 The ceremonies surrounding the an nual festival are so weird and barbaric that thousands of tourists and pleas ure seekers, bored by the common place and seeking something different,
 pay the Hopi reservation a visit. Preceding the snake dance, which continues for nine days, the Indians hold a musical concert, participated
 by two bands, equipped only with flutes. After playing several selec- tions. the music ends with a footrace. When the snake dance starts. war riors of the tribe are dispatched to the ! desert to bring in the reptiles. They are accompanied by musicians whose ! performances on quaint musical in- struments are supposed to lure the
 snakes into the hands of the war riors.
 ] After capturing several snakes. gen. ! erally,. rattlers, the warriors re- ] turn to the village where the reptiles
 are placed in stone jars. Incantations
 accompanied by music and weird dances around the jars then continue i for nine days

Here and There i1o Arizona

to reach direct the legislators from Arizona now at the national capital
 The movie tax is a burden to the poorer class which is asked to contrib ute for the recreation and education it takes in the picture houses. Much has been written by those who are trying to have this law stricken from the statute books and the biggest ar gUment against it is the fact that the so-called luxury tax exempts all meT- chandise within reach of the poor, placing the burden on $5 hats, $1O shirts, etc, but stumbles into the CT TOT of taxing the To- and 20-cent movie patrons who is in majority the poorer classes.
 Many congressman and senators have lined up to help repeal this tax law and speaking recently of it, Rep resentative Frank c. Little of Kansas said: My idea is that the wealth of the country should pay the taxes, and that those of small means or small incomes should not be asked directly or indirectly to contribute There is no logic in pestering the people of or dinary means every time they at tempt to take little pleasure at the picture show"
 It is probable that-petitions will be circulated here as well as in other cities of the state with the hope of conveying to our law makers that the movie patron is tired of the tax. Richards has already selected his assistants in the outlying districts of the state and the campaign will be on in a few days.

TUCSON, Aug. Although Pima county has been visited by heavy storms in the past few days the dam age to road has not been great.
 The new dip on the orphanage road held. The water ran over the Ft. Lowell road in a number of places but this was due to poor ditching and this will be remedied at once.

Report Wonderful
 Range Conditions

Wonderful range conditions are re- ported throughout the southern part of Arizona. From Lordsburg west the range has recently been visited by heavy rains, and the result is blan- ket Of verdure that makes the coun- try for miles and miles seem like one large lawn.
 As far west as ochise the plains are covered with nothing but grass, with very little brush. and no trees to obstruct the view. From Cochise to few miles east of Tucson the country changes to hills and arroyos, and the brush and cactus are thick, with a luXuriant growth of edible weeds About Tue son and for miles north the landscape again changes, .and one of the most wonderful mesquite growths any where in the country exists. The green leafy branches of one bush in tertwine with another until passage through the jungle seems an impos- sibility.
 A strange feature is the fact that the usually vegetable growth does not extend very far into New Mexico. Somehow the rains which have caused southern Arizona to spring into a spTingtime radiance seem to have avoided utterly the sister state on the east. There the brown plains arc covered with their usual vesture of gray sagebrUsh, the greasy appearing chaparral. Jupiter Pluvius apparently picked out southern Arizona, alone, Co pour his showers upon.

 An address of welcome was made by the president, Mrs. Linda Scott. Who spoke from the bandstand. She was followed by Judge John J. Hawk ms, of Prescott, who spoke of the invigorating helpfulness of people of one state coming together after the trials and separations caused by the war. He urged the people of Ari- zona and California to force upon their senators the great necessity of confirming the League of Nations.
 
 since the birth of Christ
 Norman Johnson, who spoke next. described the wonderful changes that prohibition had brought in Arizona He congratulated California on her adoption of prohibition. He said that one of the things that had impressed him most in this state is it's beautiful women and Gmpressively) it's beauti- ful men.
 'If the lovely, dainty, painted-up doll-men whom I have seen in Cali fornia should walk through the streets of an Arizona town they would be mobbed" he declared.

HARRIS GETS WIRES
 FOR ADJUTANT GENERAL

PHOENIX, Aug. 4.-Assistant Attor- ney General Louis B. Whitney yester- day gave out an opinion that all tele- grams addressed to the adjutant gen eral of the state belong to Charles W. Harris, Hunt appointee to that office MT. Whitney based his opinion on a previous opinion of Attorney General Jones to the effect that Harris is the de facto adjutant general of the state.
 The opinion was written at the re- quest of the manager of the Western Union Telegraph company.
 In his letter Whitney states that telegrams in which the name of Wal ter s. Ingalls, is mentioned, belong to Adjutant General Insalls.
 The opinion is as follows:
 Replying to your favor of the Both ultimo., in which you ask for an opin- ion as to who is the present adjutant general of the State of Arizona, per init us to say that there is a suit pending in the superior court of Mari copa county, for the purpose of deter mining the true status of Charles w. Harris and Walter S. Ingalls,, rival claimants to that office.
 MT. Harris is holding and claiming his right to the office under an opin- ion rendered by this office in 1917.
 Charles w. Harris came into the possession of the office of adjutant general lawfully, in the first instance, and is still in possession of that office together with all the records and oth- CT paraphernalia pertaining to same, hence I take it he is a de facto off cer and as such entitled to receive any telegrams addressed to the adiutant general of Arizona; of Course, this ex- cludes any telegrams that may be personally addressed to Walter s. In. gals, whether the official title of ad 1 jutant general follows his name ol not. Whether MT. Harris or MT. In, gals is the de facto officer, is foI the courts to determine"

ENGINEERS CONDEMNS
 IRRIGATION PROJECT

PRESCOTT, Aug. An view of a report recently completed by Homer Hamlin, consulting engineer of the United States reclamation service, il is doubtful if the proposed storage dam for the irrigation of 95,000 acres in Paradise and Deer valleys, near the mouth of the Verde river, will ever be built
 The plans call for the construction of dam, few miles below Camp Verde and the creation of a lake which, at its high stage, would extend up the river to point about half a mile this side of that settlement. Much local interest exists in the Par adise-Verde project, not only because it would bring 95,000 acres of extreme ly rich land under cultivation, but also because the lake, only 25 miles from Jerome, would provide splendid fish ing and waterfowl hunting for sports men of this section.
 Hamlin declares that the supply of water from the Verde river available for Paradise and Deer valleys is not sufficient for 30,000 acres, and he sees no chance for the development of a supplemental underground supply. He declares further that the impounding dam, diversion dam and necessary ca nals cannot be built for anything like the estimates submitted to the recla- mation service by the Paradise-Verde Water Users Association. Hamlin also asserts that the designs for the proposed dams are grossly in error and If built would be serious men ace to life and property in highly de veloped communities.

DRILLING PUSHED AT

 JEROME, Aug. 4.-Over 40OO feet of the Pittsburgh-Jerome's diamond drill ing campaign has been carried out Though no mine has been struck a number of ore stringers have Deen crosscut and Superintendent Charles Arata is hopeful that before the cam paign is finished he will at least have located a formation in which it will be worth while looking for big body. All the holes being drilled are cross cut. First flat hole is run out from the bottom of Mescal gulch into the surrounding country and by this means no inconsiderable depth is at tained. Then a 30 degree hole is run. Altogether the Pittsburgh-Jerom program calls for 10000 feet of dia- mond drilling. This will explore the company's most promising territory pretty thoroughly.

 It is to be hoped, if not presumed that the Senate will tear out of the prohibition enforcement bill a good many of the provisions which the zeal ous drys of the House have struck in to it. So, it is scarcely worth while objecting in detail to clause after clause of a measure whose offensive regulations would seem in place in the acts of Parliament of Henry WITS time, except that, in that darker age, legislators sought to insure the purity of the peoples drink instead of trying to take it away from them.
