 "One gallon kerosene (above mixture) ran 24.8 miles at a cost of 23 centss
 "Where distilIate or kerosene are used it is necessary to use a few drops of gasoline in the car burator when starting on a cold morning.

MOLD KENTUCKY That Great American Classic By Chas. T. Dazey. Starring

By Chas. T. Dazey. Starring
 Anita Stewart.
 The good people of Williams who are interested in better en- tertainments should not over look this lavish perturbation of one of the greatest stage plays ever produced in America.
 You have all seen or heard of this great American Classic. The picture portryas all the tremendous scenes the stage could only suggest. Scores of galloping night-riders, feudal battles between mountaineers, gun fights betweenmoonshiners and revenue officers, a g1rI on horseback makes a flying leap over a chasm a hundred feet deep, barely making the jump in order to save her sweetheart from death by a lighted dyna- mite bomb, the finest and most exciting horse race in America. The Great Kentucky Derby. Col. Doolittle's famous Mint tulip, a yard tall and the big gest cigar ever made are all there. You'll see the famous tree and knot-hole where the Col. sees his favorite racer win without actually attending the races. A great fox chase. Thrill upon thrill leading to a wonderful climax! Not just a picture, but a great show, Will be at The Sultana Satur- day May 1st. Admission 25 and 55 cts.

tratinn laws provides that tnA eIector when registering snaE

tratinn laws provides that trA eIector when registering snaE give his party afiliation, or say that he has none, if such is the case. Any elector refusing to give his party affiliation cannot register. If he has no party af- fliation he may so state, and in order to register, this question in the registration blank must be answered. This question of registering without giving a party affiliation does not affect the elector at the general cleo tion, but is an important factor at the primary for selection of candidates for the general cleo ton, for unless party affilia- tion is given the elector will not be permitted to vote for any of the candidates on the regular printed primary ballots.

PIANO RECITAL

Miss Mamie Alcorn's class of girls gave a piano recital at the Sultana Theater last Sunday afternoon, to a crowded house. The appreciative audience en- Joyed every musical number immensely. The pupils showed how thoroughly and expertly they had been trained. Their teacher is certainly to be con- graduated on the results which she has succeeded in getting with this class. Williams is indeed fortunate to posses such an able artist for starting her young people in music. The public is looking forward with pleasant anticipation, to anoth- CT treat of this kind, in the near future.

 Man is the equal of woman in all things except those where he is not her equal. And that, surely, is diplomatic enough to prevent even our wife from taking offense.

DISARMAMENT PROPOSED
 FOR. MERCER HEMPERLEY

Dlsbarment proceedings were filed with the Superior Court in Flagstaff, against Mercer Hem- perley, this week. Charges of embezzlement as we'll as of wrong practices are made against MT. Hemperley. A con- mittee consisting of x. N. Steev. es, T. H. Cureton, Frank Harri- son, George Harben and F. w. Perkins, has been appointed to hear the evidence in the case. Judge Sleeves has been chosen chairman of the committee and he expects to call the committee into session in Williams, soon.
 Judge Sleeves will make a very good chairman both be- cause of his ability and long ex- perience, and because he is without prejudice either for or against Attorney Hemperley. If the grounds for disbarment are strong the judge will push the work of the committee. If, on the other hand, the evidence should show only petty dislikes between lawyers, the case will be apt to die a slow death. In 5dlcations are, however, that the evidence against MT. Hemper- ley is very strong.
 Close upon the heels of the announcement of the above named proceedings, comes the news that Hemperley has fileo d1sbarment proceedings against F. D. Crable, who drew up the proceedings against Hemper ley. The latter proceedings are not generally taken seriously.

TO THE VOTERS OF WILLIAMS


 The Commercial Club of Williams is pledg- ed bv it's constitution to the advancement of the town of Williams in civic improvement, civic gov erment, and advertising.
 As an organiazation the Commercial Club has no personal or political ends to Serve. Its ac- tlvities have beep in the past and shall be in the future directed solely to accomplishing those things which in i+s judgement, will redound to the bettermenc Of conditions m which we live
 Within the past two years Williams has con- tracted bonded indebtedness of 500, 100000. By assuming this indebtedness which repre- sentes practically onetenth of it's assessed value the town has acquired municipal water and light plant On account of unfortunate cir cumstances surrounding the installation of the plant, this institution has not proven financial success. Instead of proving source of revenue to the town should be the case it has shown almost monthly deficit. However under the present administration of the city's affairs this condition is rapidly being remedied and withnew machinery that has recently been acquired it is confidently anticipated that within very short time the plant will be placed upon more than a self-sustaining basis.
 The town of Williams needs
 Anew town hall. ns<s
 More and better concrete sidewalks.
 MacadamiZed business streets
 modern street lighting system.
 If the municipal water and light plant is to be the taxpayer and if bEe improvements needed are to be wisely and economically installed, we will need as councimen of the town of Williams for the next two years men of proved business ability. tt Business ability cannot be purchased by you for the purposes for which the town of Williams needs it, but it can be drafted by you to serve your purpose, when you go to the polls to votei

BUSINESS IS MUDDLED
Fluctuations of German Mark Cause Business Men Much Annoyance and Prevent Outside Trade

Coolcnz, Jan. 16.-Fluctuat tions ill i the value of the mark recently have i been so violent that German business men report that it is virtually inn : possib blc for them to carry on transac- ! lions with the outside world Mer 1 chants contend that it is no longer [,
 matter of business but simply one of
 gambling on the exchange. Various
 suggestions have been made by finan
 clers and others in Germany to rcn1-
 cdy the situation, but as vet nothinr
 of practical import has been formu- lated.
 One suggestion being considered by banhcrs is that goods be bought and sold by barter, thereby eliminating the exchange 11rctuation. The present 10" value of the mark has placed a very effective embargo on capital at tempting To escape taxation by. ing the country. It has also auto maucally cut off imports except of articles absolutely indispensable. For eiSn buyers, taking advantage of the favorable. rate of exchange have re- gently placed large orders with many German factory owners.
