Un- der ordinary circumstances and past records we may look for no rain of until about the middle of July. However. We are assured of water for drinking purposes even though the unheard of might happen, the going dry of every spring in the Huachucas. before the rains come. There is one thing that is certain, the priority right to use Of water hay ing been ,ettled by the commission.
 
 no additional water for mines and mill. inG purposes can be obtained until the rains come and with the supply de. creased to any extent from what it is now. inc National Metals Recovery Co. will be shut off first, then the Bert Holland mill. and following that the Bunker Hill. this being the priority turn of service as originally contend. cd by the water company and confirm. ed by the Commission. However, as June approaches We find that the chances of complete failure of supply is diminishing and We can feel reason. ably safe that for domestic purposes we will continue to have water at OUT faucets twenty-four hours each day, as in the past. There is no water for ir rigation purposes and the need of say ing all waste water is still as imLera tive as ever

 OPPOSED BY ARIZONA R. R.'S

PHOENIX. May 25.-The Arizona Eastern Railway company and the Atchison. Topeka and Santa Fe Rail- way company today filed an applica- ton with the state corporation com. mission for rehearing on the order issued by the commission reducing freight rates on rock, sand and gravel The railroad alleged that the commis- sion had no authority to issue the or der because the rates previously in effec: were established by the director general of railroads while the roads were under federal control. Under the provisions of the United States trans portation act. of 1920, the road claim ed, rates in force when fedora, con trol terminated had to remain in force until changed by law. The roads also declared that the order of the com mission was unreasonable, arbitrary. contrary to the evidence submitted and contrary to law.

souA PRIETA GAMBLING
 IS AGAIN CLOSED UP

DOUGLAS. May 25.-All the gam bling games in Agua Prieta have again been closed and there is nothing do- ing m throwing the bones" or betting on inc roulette baii. This announce ment was made this morning.
 Jus, how the gambling permits are handled across the line is not known but surely there is little certainty about just when the games will or will not be allowed.
 If public sentiment in Douglas could be applied in Agua Prieta there would be no more gambling in that town. Public gambling in Agua Pri- eta is menace to the welfare of many in Douglas who are weak enough to undertake to strengthen their finan- cial condition at the gambling table.

There were instances in which indi

The reason is not easy of explana-

us with more brain material than we
need to think with, and we can spare

Cuences, unless some essential struc-

Thousands Have Kidney
Trouble and Never
Suspect 1t
Applicants for Insurance Often
Rejected.

Judging from reports from druggists
who are constantly in direct touch with
the public, there is one preparation that
has been very successful in overcoming
these conditions. The mild and healing
influence of DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root is
soon realized. 1t stands the highest for
its remarkable record of success.
An examining physician for one of the
prominent Life Insurance Companies, in
an interview on the subject, made the as
tonishing statement that one reason why
so many applicants for insurance are re-
jected is because kidney trouble is SO
common to the American people, and the
large majority of those whose appiica-
tons are declined do not even suspect
that they have the disease
Dr.. Kilmer's Swamp Root is on sale
at all drug stores in bottles Of two sizes,
medium and large. However, if you wish
first to test this great preparation send

writing be sure and mention this paper.
