LIVESTOCK AND
 RANGES IN ARIZONA

Pasture on the desert ranges of southwestern New Mexico and south- ern Arizona have greatly improved under the influence of warm days and following recent rains. Pastures at high elevations have cured without in- jury from frost. The following re- port from the superintendent of the Fort Apache Indian agency is typical of what might be said of the greater part of the range in northern Ari- zona: Range conditions are now the best I have ever known. The grass crop was exceedingly heavy and it has matured without damage from frost. The foliage and browse is also good and livestock are getting quite fat. The weather is now about ideal throughout the White mountain re- zion. The higher attitudes are getting quite cool, considerable ice forming at night. Heavy frosts have covered the area down to about the 1000 foot level but no injury to vegetation has result ed from that level down. Grass, gar den vegetables, etc., are all green at this place yet. While the nights are cool, the days are warm and delight full" Large numbers of cattle are be- ing shipped from the northeastern plateau and from the Seligman dist rict, many of which are ready for slaughter.

ARIZONA WILL DISSOLVE
 15,000 DELINQUENT COMPANIES

The Arizona corporation commission is about starting house cleaning and expects to eliminate at least 15,00C of the 33,000 articles of incorporation that have accumulated in its files dur ing the past 20 or more years.
 Thousands of the corporations have failed to file their annual reports for years past, neglecting, as well, to re- init the annual registration fee of S20. It is understood that some of these corporations are fourishing elsewhere than in Arizona and are selling stock in other states, believing themselves beyond the reach of Ari- zona laws.
 Notices are to be sent to all delin- quents, who are to be allowed 10 days for full rehabilitation.
 If full and satisfactory answer is not received, with remittance of all arrears, the corporation affected will be dissolved. This work of elimina- tion will be handled in patches of 100 and attorney general Galbraith will supervise its legal features. Most of the defaulting corporations were or ganized for the sale of mining or oil stocks.

CHICAGOANS STILL BELIEVE
 IN THEIR SACRED COW MYTH

Despite the decision of learned in vestigators that Mrs. O'Leary's COW did not kick over the lantern and start the Chicago fire 50 years ago to- night because Mrs. O'Leary was sick in bed with sore foot on that histor- eve, Chicagoans today insisted on giving the acrobatic bovine a premier position in the semi-centennial cele- oration of the confagration.
 An alleged great-great-great grand laughter of the original OLeary COW md a collateral descendant of the ,enuine kerosene lantern play an inn )ortant part in the fire week pageant Grant park. And as for the old ime settlers their faith in the COW tory remains unshaken.

The key and the blank were the only identifi- cation marks on the body, except the initials "J. N. L." on a small locket attached to watch fob.
 The undertaken who took charge of the body said indications were that the man had been dead about six weeks.
 A lawyers small brief case was found about twenty feet from the body and in it were a number of small per sonal belongings, supposed to have been the property of the dead man. Among the articles in the case were cheap set of draughtsman's instru- ments and a scale such as is used by draughtsmen.
 An empty bill fold, cheap re- volver with three discharged cart riges and a leather cover for check book issued by a bank in Denison, Tex, also were found in the vicinity of the body. :.
 According to the theory in Yavapai county officials, the man killed himself with the revolver although they de- clare that his absolute lack of money and the fact that the body was mile from the road indicates that the wounds may not have been self-in- | fiicted. The officials are attempting to secure the name of the owner of the switch key and also to secure the mans name from the Columbia lodge.

NO ELECTION ON
 HOUSE BILL s

There will be no special election in Arizona on November for the sub mission of the proposed amendment to the constitution, under which the state would guarantee the bonds of privately owned and promoted enter prises as planned in the now notorious House bill 83.
 Section four of this bill, which di- rected the calling of the special cleo tion, was subject to the referendum, according to the decision of the state supreme court, handed down at noon Tuesday.
 This ruling sustains in full the posi- tion of Secretary of State Ernest R. Hall, who held that the referendum petition, bearing the legal number of signatures of qualified voters and ask ing that the special election be not called, was applicable to the measure It will be recalled that Secretary Hall caused to be added to House Bill 83 in the printed session laws of the last legislature, the following footnote:
 "A referendum having been filed or section of this act, the special cleo. tion will not be held and the act will be submitted at the next general cleo. tion unless the courts order other wise"
 In rendering their decision the court held that without paragraph 4 the bill would have been submitted in thu course of natural events at the next general election and that therefore the calling of special election was certainly an act of the legislature Having decided this point the cour held the referendum was effective anc that it was unnecessary to decide an! of the other points which had beer raised in the arguments on the manda mus proceedings.
 This decision was a. signal victor! for the taxpayers economic leagu' and Secretary of State Hall.

YAVAPAI HIGHWAY WORK
 HAS BEEN REORGANIZED

A fresh start has been made upon the Yavapai county highway program in the appointment of new highway commission and new engineer.
 A contract for S60,000 entered into by the old commission with 0lmstead & Gillelen of Los Angeles for super visory work was cancelled on advice of Judge A. c. Lockwood of Cochise county, to whom the question was sub mitted. He decided that the old board had no power to bind it's successors.
 It is believed that the Los Angeles firm will seek compensation for pre- liminary work done under the terms of the contract prior to the time of its dismissal by the new board.

 The banker was told by a physician that an American travelling salesman had died at Mazatlan after he had con- tracted the disease at Caliacan, cap ital of Sinaloa. No information as to the number of deaths from the disease was obtainable tonight because of in- terrupted telegraphic communication.

Arizona and it's bordering states.
 "The Edison company's plan of wholesaling to and actually including existing companies in the super-or- ganization which will be made to de- velop this project, is most admirable. It prevents loss of present properties by competition and paralleling of lines and at the same time assures every existing power and lighting company l in the seven states covering the Colo rado basin an ample supply of power for a hundred years to come. This great financial organization has the national standing to put through the enormous program and get immediate action, which means the development of Arizona and its resources for the benefit of those who are here instead
 dOur plan for the development of the Colorado river is based on the idea that the broadest possible use must be made of this, the greatest and last remaining water resources of the southwest.
 "Any plan for piece-meal utiliza- tion of the power or water which does not have this breadth of view will re- suit in more or less disastrous con flict of interest.
 "The Edison company's examina- tion of the situation has, therefore, started with an analysis of the power requirements and resources of the whole southwest, as well as the prob abilities of development in the up-river states of Colorado, Wyoming and Utah, and has been carried on in
