MAYOR TO GET SALARY

TUCSON, July 24.-Whether the mayor of the city shall receive sal, ary of $3600 a year and councilmen $1200 was the subject under discus sion when the charter committee ad- journed at noon today after holding its first meeting since organization. There was considerable difference of opinion on the matter. Dr. Meade Clyne thought that councilmen should be either placed in charge of one ot the departments of the city at good salary or paid considerably less than i $100 month for merely attending meetings. Mrs. Thomas Healy was of the same opinion. Elias Hedrick thought that the $100 month pro vision would defeat the charter.
 The committee was practically unanimous in favoring a good salary for the mayor but favored amending the charter so as to privide that he shall devote his entire time to the duties of the office.

TUCSON CENTRAL TRADE
 COUNCIL TO HAVE NEW HOME

TUCSON, July 24-Central Trades Council of Tucson has completed ar engagements by which it will move into new quarters August l. The lease for the old quarters in the Mar tin building on Congress street ex- pires this month and as the drug company contemplated enlarging it's own quarters whereby it will occupy all of the ground floor except one store room and will arrange the top floor for office suites, the Central Trades Council not being able to re new its lease on account of this ar engagement, the officials of the coun- cil immediately made arrangements with the Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen who hold their meeting on North Stone avenue, near Penning' ton. whereby the Central Trades Council took over their lease for the building which runs for the next three and one-half years.
 The Central Trades Council will take over beside the lease of the building, all the furnishings in the building which will be so arranged whereby the different unions will be able to conveniently hold their meet ings. The building contains one oi the best dancing halls in the city and when the rooms are assigned to the different unions and the office fixed up for the business agent, il will be great improvement over the present quarters.

SHOWERSSTOP
 FOREST FIRES

SPOKANE, Wash, July 24.-Show- CTS in Western Montana and Northern Idaho today helped to improve the forest fire situation. High winds last night, according to reports, did not do as much damage as had been antici- pated although electrical storms were responsible for many new fires.
 Apparently St. Regis, threatened by forest fires for several days is now in slight danger. Thompson Falls was reported safe, the flames in that inn mediate neighborhood having been brought under control. Alberton and vicinity has been having showers, which helped relieve the situation in Nigger Gulch. where the flames have been. spreading rapidly.
 The forest service sent additional men to the fire-stricken districts. Eff ty men went to Gold Creek, to assist in fighting the Rattlesnake fire and another crew was sent to the Evaro fire, which was reported to be spread ing over a large area.
 In the NeZperc forest a blaze was burning close to Elk City, Idaho, and had covered 1500 acres. In the Lolo forest new fire was reported on the south of Fish creek. Reports from Oregon indicated that 55 forest fires had been started by lightning last night. None of the Oregon fires is considered dangerous.

MARAHUANA GARDENS
 CHOPPED UP BY SHERIFF

PHOENIX, July 24.-A small load of marahuana, weighing about 100 pounds, was dug up by Sheriff John Montgomery today at a Mexican viii lage south of Tempe. He said he went to Guadalupe with Ranger De- Witt, but could find no marahuana there, contrary to expectations.
 Montgomery, who is taking the re- sponsibility upon his own shoulders to clean the county of marahuana in the absence of any state law, is re, ceiving strong backing by the native and better class of Mexican citizens who realize that marahuana is the worst enemy of many of the Mexican people here, Montgomery saying he would like to have the cooperation of the city governments of the sev- eral incorporated towns of the coun- ty by passing anti-marahuana ordi- nances similar to the one in opera tion in Phoenix This ordinance makes it an offense to grow or have marahHana in ones possession or to smoke it.
 Montgomery said it was grave mistake that the lasts legislature did not pass an anti-marahuana law. With the absence of whiskey, the sheriff says, people seek marahuana and other narcotics as a substitute and says that he feels that the grow ing of marahuana should be stopped if for no other reason than that this is dry state.

PALMER FIGHTS
 FOR NOMINATION

WASHINGTON, July 24.-Mitchell Palmer before the judiciary committee today renewed his fight for ratifica- ton by the senate of his nomination as attorney general and again vigor- ously defended his administration as alien property custodian. He replied to the charges of improper administra- tion of alien enemy property made hy Harold Remington a New York law yer, and Leslie s. Kennard ,an ln- diana attorney, holding a position in the alien property custodian's office.
 General charges of improper admin istration were made by MT. Kennard in statement recently submitted to the committee by Senator New, Re publican, of Indiana, and answered to- day by MT. Palmer, who prepared an affidavit from MT. Palmer, repudiat- ing his previous statement.
 MT. Palmer declared there was nothing inconsistent 1n his jurisdic- tion of claims for property made against the alien property custodian. Declaring that he had never passed personally on a single claim, as such matters were handled by subordinates, MT. Palmer added: Besides, these claims must be settled by legislation of congress after peace is proclaimed l have no doubt that congress will provide money to prevent men from i occupying inconsistent positions"

WATER FEUD INVERTED AS JONES BREACHES
 IN BENSON PULPIT

PHOENIX. July 24.-How church service was turned into a public util- ity hearing to the end that a serious water feud was averted, is the unus- ual story brought back from Benson, Ariz., by F. A. Jones, member of the Arizona corporation commission.
 Recent floods destroyed the newly built diversion dam of the Benson Canal company, located on the San Pedro river. This catastrophe com ing at a time when irrigation was a vital necessity and following months of dissatisfaction over the financial and business affairs of the company as conducted by the three men owning a majority of the stock led to an attempt on the part of mi nority stockholders to jump the water rights and take over the canal.
 With all interested parties for miles around in attendance at the little Mormon church at Benson Jones took the pulpit t Rreach a prac tical sermon to the effect that noth ing was to be accomplished through subterfuge or legal controversy, and urged that the dissenting factions gel | together.
 Following his suggestion each side | appointed a committee of two. these selected fifth and this joint com mittee then named an entirely new board of directors to take over tho 1 tangled affairs of the company Jones further suggested that th' | capitalization should be increaseC from S1O,00O to $100,000, and tha
 bonds be floated to pay for neV dam and other improvements. H' was given d rising vote of thanks.
