 \. E. EVENING TRAIN
 TAKEN OFF |S CLAIM

That the mining town of Miami will be paralyzed if the Arizona Eastern railroad is permitted to dis continue it's evening train was the testimony brought out at a hearing at Miami before the state tax com mission on the application of the carrier to discontinue its evening service.
 The railroad presented figures to show that it is losing hundreds of dollars a month by operation of the evening train. Since the figures were not complete and did not rep resent the. express business which is said to exceed over S50,0O0 a year. D. F. Johnson, chairman of the commission, ordered the carrier to submit complete data showing the revenue from all sources In the meantime. he ordered the evening service to Miami to be continued until the decision is rendered in the case.
 The application of the railroad to discontinue the evening run from Globe has aroused intense indigna- ton among the residents of Miami who, previous to the hearing before the corporation commission. held a series of mass meetings. They claim the carrier is discriminating against Miami and that if the application is granted it will be disastrous tc public welfare in the way of busi- ness and health.
 Complaints were made to the ef- feet that travelling men would re-
 main in Globe and telephone the Miami merchants to come and lool at their samples and leave their or ders. If they did not remain over night at Globe it would cost then
 the modest sum of s4 to have on' trunk hauled out to Miami. Th'
 loss in the way of perishable goodi also was pointed out Dr. Brayton | one of the chief witnesses. told O the effect upon milk if delayed T. hours in Globe for the morning
 train He declared that it woul' tend to sour and increase the bac
 teria count. making it unfit for con
 sumption by children

NEW HOPE BROUGHT ID M|CHAN MARTIN
 BY HIS RETRIEVE

T feel as if had been born again." said Nichan Martin. who was to have died on the galiovs at daybreak Friday morning. to Gov ernor Thomas F. Campbell. who. with the board of directors of state institutions made an inspection of the prison Sunday.
 The Condemned cell in which Mar tin has been confined since June was filled with flowers sent him by women. he said. Although the eleventh hour attempt to save his life by habeas corpus proceedings had given Martin hope and he smiled for the first time in many weeks.
 Whether he will smile after today is a question. for this morning at 10 o'clock the supreme court will review the habess corpus proceed ings and decide whether Judge Jenckes had any right to take up any phase of the case after the supreme court had issued its final mandate. The application for a writ of certiorari was filed on Sat urday by the attorney generals of- flee. after Martin appealed from the decision of Judge Jenckes. who or dered the writ ouashed and re- manded him to the custody of Thomas H. Rynning, prison super intendent
 The governor on his return yes- terday said he was disturbed over | the ver-increasing population of the prison There has been a material advance in she number which now reached 400. When the prison camps are reopened on July 1 it will take | f3O of these men for road work A
 few of the prisoners are now en- gagged In surfacing the bridge over | the Gila near the prison town

WILL REFERENDUM
 0F H. 3, 83 PREVENT
 SPECIAL ELECTION?

Asking the opinion of the attorney general as to what procedure he should follow in the matter of House Bill S3. Ernest Hall. secretary of state, has brought up the question as to whether or not the referendum on section of the bill will prevent the holding of a special election in the fall. In his inquiry to Attorney Gen eral Galbraith yesterday, Secretary Hall stated his wished to be advised on the matter of submitting to the people at the general election in No vember the proposed amendment to the constitution.
 Since the filing of the petitions containing approximately twice the number of signatures required by law, the question has been raised as to their effectiveness in view of the fact that they are directed at only one section of the bill rather than at the entire act.
 The letter addressed to MT. Gal braith on this point follows: ". J. Galbraith.
 | Attorney General,
 My dear MT. Galbraith: am enclosing one Of the referen- dunn petitions against Section of 1 House Bill S3 which has been filed in | this office. Signatures to the number of 6,229 have been signed on similar petitions. The law says five per cent of the total votes cast for governor at the last election is necessary. This would necessitate only 3,423 sigma lures.
 The referendum against Section 4 of House Bill s3 has been fully com piled with in every respect. No one I made any objection to my receiving the petitions for filing, and as the parties filing these petitions have in I every way fully complied with the law regarding the filing of the refer endum petitions, I take 1t that this referendum will prevent the holding of the special election called for ir Section of House Bill S3. which section is the subject of those peti- tions- Also that the said proposed lamendment to the constitution vii consequently be submitted to tht voters at the next general election in November, 1922.
 I Please give me your written opinioI as to whether or not this is the righ procedure for me to take. Very truly yours.
