TO FIGHT ROADS F THEY TRY TO 'MELCH'
 ON RETURN TICKETS

If, as was reported in an Associated Press dispatch yesterday morning, the interstate commerce commission in its haste to put the increased passenger fares into effect intends to allow the railroads to "welch" by refusing to honor return tickets purchased before the increased rates were allowed, they will encounter some opposition on the part of the corporation commission of this state.
 Commissioner A. A. Betts yesterday took the subject up and addressed a telegram to John E. Benton of Wash ington, D. C., solicitor for the NationaI Association of Railway commissioners, calling attention to the matter. MT. Betts stated that information had been received through an apparently authen- tic Associated Press dispatch quoting the commission as announcing that the return portions of railway tickets would not be honored after the effective date of the increase, but that holders of them would be given credit for them or that they would be received in re- turn as part payment for tickets at the new rates.

SAYS LIBRARIAN'S
 LIFE NOT ALWAYS
 \ PATH IF ROSES

Life sometimes becomes very com plicated for library workers, according to Mrs. C.. l.. Davidson. acting libra rian of the Phoenix public library, to whom come many startling and un- usual questions from patrons who do not fully understand the scope of the local institution but who nevertheless must be dealt with carefully in order not to offend them-
 Not long ago a woman telephoned a request that would have proved an enormous task had it been fulfilled She asked that list of all the books in the library be read to her in order that she might make a selection. After much diplomatic conversation and un- tang1ing of twisted verbiage it was learned that she really only wanted to know which books by a certain au- taor were kept on the shelves. By not expressing herself clearly the inquirer caused herself to be exposed to sus- pician concerning her sanity.
 Another woman who was not clear Dn the procedure of applying for library card walked up to the desk one day and asked for a ticket to the library. She was politely told that the institution was not operated like & movie show, and was shown how to fill out the application blanks that are preliminary to the withdrawal Of books
 
 of the library workers, while at the same time they cannot but be amusing
 The workers also indulge in a great 1eal Of research work in digging out books upon which current moving pie lure plays are based There is a great demand for these books, and upon the showing in Phoenix of some special cinema feature. the library officials are certain of having a number of re- quests for the original stories of the plays.
 Tn most cases patrons seem to ex- pect the library workers to be om4 niscient. They apply at the desk for information about books concerning which they cannot furnish sufficient Identification for the officials to even learn what is wanted.
 An example of this line of question ing is this:
 was written by somebody q think his name begins with an .N' and sounds something like Hansen, I think which friend of mine got from the library about six months ago? Let me see tbusiness of profound cogitation) l believe she said it was called The Royal Rider or the Tolls of the Spf- der. something like that. it was-1 forget the title. but it was a story or a treasure hunt. I think. Can you find That for me, please2"
 Now here is a problem for the IT. brary worker which Sherlock Holmes would refuse to tackle, but with a number of acute questions which come from much practice with similar cases, the book is usually found. And the queer part of it is that a. rule the obliged patron does not evea realize what a task she has set.

BUCKEYE CITIZEN TO
 RUN FUR SUPERVISOR

Guy V. Vernon of Buckeye yesterday announced his candidacy for the Re- publican nomination for county super visor. MT. Vernon accepted at the eleventh hour the nomination for this office two years ago, as many others took places on the ticket, for filling it out, but with little hope of election. They shared the belief. which was probably not correct, that the county was overwhelmingly Democratic
 Almost no effort was made by Mir Vernon or his friends, yet he came within 57 votes of being elected, not withstanding a nerve straining effort on the part of the Democratic candi- date. Indeed, until almost the last it was believed that he had received plurality of votes.
 This time, his friends say, they are not filling tickets and they are not going to let anything go by default and they are going to see that Mir Vernon takes a place on the board of supervisors on Jan. 1 next

COMMISSION FINISHES
 SCHEDULED BUSINESS

The state tax commission, in it's garb of board of equalization yesterday dis posed of all the scheduled business be- fore it, but it will hear such protests against assessments as may be pre- scented today. Yesterday it had before it three protests, that of the Mineral Hill Consolidated Mining company, whose properties are in Pinal county; the Huachuca Water company of Tombstone. and the Gila Copper SuI- phide company.
 The property of the first-named company consists of producing claims and reasons were offered by the general manager, w. D. Blackner, and Attorney Charles Blenman of Tucson to show that the assessments were un- reasonable.
 The protests of the Huachuca Water company against the assessment by the county authorities was offered by the manager, A. H. Gardner.
 George D. Morris of Prescott, general manager for the Copper Sulphide com pany, appeared for that protestant.

Both Conventions Agree.

In each convention candidates
for all offices were nominated from
the floor and discussed freely by
.all delegates. Conference COM
mittees then met together, the Ia
Dor conferees reporting the senti-
ment in their convention to the
farmers, and vice versa. The con-
ference committees then reported
back to their respective conventions
with recommendations, and in this
way the ticket was selected.
Doctor Shipstead and other cam
didates were given rousing re-
ception at public meeting at the
st. Paul Auditorium following the
conventions. The Auditorium was
crowded to capacity, although there
had been little or no advertising of
the meeting.
Doctor Shipstead served in the
legislature with a 100 per cent la
Dor record. He was raised on
farm. worked his way through
school and college and has been
constantly a leader in the progress
sive political movement in Min
nesota.
Captain Mallon, candidate for
lieutenant governor, is one of
Pershings 100 war heroes but
opposes military training. He is
business agent of the Minnesota
Building Trades Council. Mir
Siegel has been a labor leader in
the legislature and Mr.. Sullivan,
associated with former Congress-
man James Manahan in law prac-
tice, has constantly appeared for
both labor and farmer organiza-
lions. Mr.. Vollom is a leader of
farmers cooperative enterprises,
and both Mr.. Ostby and Miss Ander-
son are practical farmers.
Virtually a complete farmer-la-
Dor congressional ticket also will be
put forward in the coming cam
paign. Minnesota already has two
congressman elected by the joint
efforts of organized labor and the
organized farmers-W. l.. Carss and
Oscar f. Keller-both elected on
independent tickets against candi-
dates of the Republican and Demo-
cratic parties.

tending to demonstrate the superiority of
any of the four contenders for the hon
oIs.
The test on the field is all that inter
ests the fans, The Herald believes.
With that in mind, then, the suggestion
of Coach O'Brien of the Rutland high
and his. speedbQys is eminently fair and
in keeping with the cannons OF good
craftsmanship.
Rutland meets Brattleboro on Novem-
Der q. Let Spaulding of Barre meet St.
Adams on the same date. Then let the
winner of the Northern group meet the
winner of the Southern on the following
Saturday, December 4, weather permit
ting.
Rutland. of course, would favor the
home lot but it is safe to say Rutland
will arrange to meet the winner at any
place mutually satisfactory. Rutland has
challenged in the event that Brattleboro
is defeated. Now it's up to Spaulding
and st. Adams. Stop this partisan pat,
ter and talk dates!
