LEE NJ. RUSSELL, OF OXFORD,
LAFAYETTE COUNTY, CANDI-
DATE FOR GOVERNOR

"ln education and experience, IN
professional and official matters, no
man ever offered for the high office OF
Governor who was better qualified.
He has always been leader in edu-
cational measures and for all those
things which protect the people IN
their constitutional rights. In all
matters pertaining to temperance and
correct morals he has been champion
of every progressive movement along
this line. and while he has never dod-
ged an issue, he has always been open
and above board for the men and
measures he supports. He has at
the same time commanded a respect
and esteem of all those who have
differed from him upon any man or
measure.
Friends claim for him that his train
ing on the farm, in the State Unlver-
sity and the practice of law for sixteen
years and in twelve years experience
as a public servant, in which his re-
cord has newer been challenged in
any material point, added to his strong
and magnetic personality, should win
for him the highest place in the gift
of the people. If he is elected the
people will be assured a high-tone and
forceful administration. His enemies
even, admit this. Union Appeal.

High Meat Prices.

If the House Committee on Inter
state Commerce has its way, it pro-
poses to lend a hand in trying to chop
off few cents per pound, at any rate,
on high meat prices 1t plans to in

| bill, to place under the lnterstatN
Commerce Commission the privately
owned stock and refrigerator cars now
used by the big meat packers, as it
has been claimed that the monopoly
of these cars induces to the high cost
|ofsmeats. 1t is admitted that little
has been accomplished by legislation
to reduce meat prices during recent
months, but evidently Congress still
has the matter in mind, and if it
cannot beat about the bush one way,
it will get there in time in several
ways, so as to show the people thai
there is something in the motto that
excepting everlastingly at it brings
success.

Children Petition Congress.

Washington, ID. c., June 5.-Con-
gress is accustomed to receiving
bulky petitions in various forms and
on behalf of many differnt bills and
measures that are before it, but since
the opening of the present session it
has fairly been swamped with pleas
and prayers asking that repeal be
made promptly of the tax on ice
cream, soft drinks and sodas. No pc
titions like them have ever been pre-
scented to Congress before, because the
majority of signers are children. They
do not understand why their simple
Injuries like ice cream cones should
bear l cent each. They tell of their
disappointment in asking Father or
Mother for a nickel to buy cone,
| only to learn from the ice cream man
that he wants penny or more for
this popular and generally recognized
healthy article And groWn-ups, too,
protest the tax. 1t is roughly eSti-

are wound into rolls many feet in
length, some of them so heavy and
bulky that it is task for one man to
carry them.
| And Congress is needing the cry of

/
committee of the House will bring in
a bill within sixty days to repeal this
tax and several score Of other small
taxes 1t is recognized that these
taxes were laid for war purposes at a
time when Congress had to reach out
and capture every penny that could be
overtaken by the tax gatherers. But
Experience has proven that these taxes
did not produce enough money to
compensate for the trouble and ex-
|pense in collecting them, in some in
stances, and certain not enough to pay
for the annoyance and veXation caus-
ed the people, so before long word will
be sent out that penny taxes are of
the past and that the everEopular
nickel will buy full value in ice cream,
pop and soda.

The Treasury Department has many
knotty problems to solve, but usually
gets away with them, sooner or later.
Since the war revenue tax bill went
into effect on May l the question has
been as to what constitutes union
suit" whether it is one-piece gar
ment or one of two pieces. The de-
cisoin has been rendered that it is
one-piece suit, and when selling for
more than SIS tax must be paid on
it. Many merchants have been evad-
ing the tax by holding that union
suit is two garments-upper and
lower.

 IF CHILDHOOD DAYS

A childhood romance eliminated last evening in Phoenix when Miss Bernice Williams became the bride of Lieuten- ant Sherman H. Culwell, the ceremony taking place at the w. c. T. |. home, 227 West Monroe street, the Rev. Har- court W. Peck of the First M. E. church officiating.
 The bride was becomingly attired in a travelling gown of navy blue, with blue hat, while the groom was in uni form. More than 30 guests were present.
 The home of both the bride and groom was in Weatherford, Texas, where they were childhood sweethearts. Miss Williams has lived in Phoenix for the past two years and has been gen eral favorite. Lieutenant Culwell was a member of the 130th field artillery and took part in the Argonne campaign. He returned from France in April coming to Phoenix just the day before the ceremony.
 Lieutenant and Mrs. Culwell left last evening for San Diego where after a honeymoon on the coast they will make their home at Weatherford, Texas. Lieutenant Culwell expects to receive his discharge at Camp Kearny shortly.

 be under the joint direction or the
 biological survey by its local represen- tatives, Inspector Musgrave, and the live stock sanitary board. The meeting at the governors office
 was attended by the governors sec
 retary, P. R. Mines, Dr. W. E. Bell,
 acting chief of the division of econ
 omic investigation of the biological survey of the department of agrlcul-
 ture; E. A. Musgrave, predatory animal 1 inspector for Arizona; Jack Barber,
 and Ed. Stephens, chairman and sec
 retary of the live stock sanitary board, Joe V. Prochaska, state game warden, and others.
 The net results of the meeting will probably be to smooth out the wrinkles
 and get an agreement together that
 will permit this very important work i to go forward without further friction. Charges of political maneuvering
 were made in regard to the bill that
 was passed and the appointments
 made. Joe Prochaska announced that 1 he had prepared and had introduced 1 into the legislature a bill creating a predatory animal commission similar l to those in most western states, but i that some influence had killed it and | that other bill had been substituted
 and was passed. Prochaska says there 1 is another law that makes it necessary for the hunters and trappers employed | to have licenses from his department,
 and he proposes to check them up a
 bit.
 The live stock sanitary board mem ! bers said they merely wanted to know l where they stood in the matter, and
 what power they had, and were assured l that they were the "bossmen" in the predatory animal matter and had power to generally supervise the work done.
 Most of the actual operating power,
 it was thought, would be delegated to
