GOOD NEWS. HUNTERS
 GAME WILL BE PLENTY

PHOENIX. Aug. 2s.-Fish and game in Arizona, particularly in the White mountain section. are very sat isfactory, according 10 a statement is sued yesterday by the state game war den. Joe V. Prochaska. after his re turn from a two weeks trip into the mountains.
 There seems 10 be plenty of game in that section. with the exception Of the almost absolute absence along the roads Of the main routes Of squirrels and cottoEtails,' said the game war den. This in my opinion. is because Of the habit of tourists passing across the state carrying guns and shooting a; everything in sight. IL should be stopped. but we have no way Of stop ping it.
 There will be plenty of turkeys when the season opens in October, in fact, they seem unusually plentiful. l am having lot O: them trapped to transplant 10 the Catalina. P.nal Cbiracanua and Graham mountains.
 Tn the Si:greaves country we saw plenty of deer. In Winslow l talked over the elk hunt which is 10 take place October r 10 31 and for which 100 permits will be issued People up there who are familiar with eordi tions think the matter is being handed properly

CLAIMS BEING INVESTIGATED

PATAGONIA. Aug. 25.-M. Van Siclen. mining engineer of Washing ton, D. C.. representing the war min erals commission. arrived ln Pata- gonia "Wednesday for the purpose of making a personal investigation of the various claims against the govern ment for losses sustained in the pro- .uct:on of manganese during the war period last year.
 There is a controversy as to whether miners and producers are entitled to compensation from the war minerals reimbursement fund unless they were ordered directly by an officer of the government to devote their en- trgies toward producing war minerals. T. is Mr Van Siclen's duty to make an examination of properties of the various claimants for relief and re- port to Washington. Then will come government auditor. who will in vestigate the books and records of the miners in question. Upon the evidence of these two mfa will depend whether CT not the producers are en- titled 10 reimbursement
 Mr Van Siclen left yesterday morn ing for Harshaw, where he made an examination of properties belonging 10 J. r Campbell. who has claim against the government
 Other operators of this district who contend they sustained losses through their efforts to produce manganese and other war metals include:
 George D Gross Of Patagonia claims loss of s1GO0 on manganese ores. s300 of which was borrowed money he had secured to get the ore cut, and he had been caught with the metal on his hands.
 The Hardshell Mining Company claims 10 nave lost s3S0 GOO or manga. nese. The company erected a con centration plant and was almos; ready tc run when the price dropped
 Sydenham & Mitchell ask to be re- !mbursed in the sum Of s12C0. which the firm says was lost during it's man. ganese operations in the Canilies last year. The Mow-y company also asks compensation for losses sustained.
 VanderwoIker Brothers claim to have lost s7OO0 during their opera. liens in the Mowry district last year.

FAUX PAS SEEN IN APPOINT.
 MENI OF CENSUS TAKERS

MeNJ OF CENSOS IANEHS
 PHOENIX. Aug. 26-"The Amer ican Legion feels very grateful 10 Major Carl Hayden for having SC cured the appointment Of Corporal Sam Bradner and Private Ray Leach ss census directors for Arizona.
 This sarcastic statement which ap- peared unofficially on a certain hulle- tin board in this city Illustrates the growing resentment in legion e. ies over the recent announcement; that these two men were selected for this important work in preference to ser vice meD.
 Neither Bradner nor Leach served in the war. the titles corporal and private being purely gra.aitous Brad Ter will be reme mbered as the leg. 'slative clerk of the last legislative ses- sion who put in a claim for services against the state, covering several weeks spent by him on a honeymoon. Leach is a former assistant secretary Of the Tucson chamber of commerce.
 The selections of Bradner and Leach came as surprise 10 men back from the war, who naturally supposed that out of all the 10000 returned service men in the state one or two might have been found by the major who were fully qualified tc take charge of the census work.
 If Congressman Hayden had any thing 10 do with the appointments. and there are many who beleive that he was solely responsible. il will have the effect of boosting the stock of Andy Martin for congress.
 Oscar Cole, former secretary of the senate and former secretary Of the state prison at Florence. has been mentioned as a candidate for state treasurer. Cole is now identified with large cotton interests near Parker.
 Dudley Windes, recently appointed ;c act as adjutant of the American Legion cf Arizona, and former city al. torney of Tempe, is mentioned as a possib!e candidate for attorney gen. eral.
 From this early consideration of candidates it is evident that the ser vice men intend to take an active Tart in state and national politics
