New Guinea has advanced less

islands Of the Pacific, even f il is
the second largest island in the
world. and 1ear Australia.
The natives are very primitive,
and have changed their customs
but little since New Guinea first
became known TO explorers. OF
course clothes are not considered
at all--in fact. they are not the
fashion i'm New Guinea. The natives
only go in for head ornaments and

a layer of charcoal or coke. placing
the metal sheets on top. then put

This insures a ground connection be-

cattle business. During the past twenty years he has held the office of supervisor many times, being sev- eral times chairman of the board. It is safe to say that no man in Mohave county has been elected to office as many times as "Bill" Stephens. He has a strong following and his friends will do everything possible to put him over. No man in political life in the county can get over more ground and make more political friends in a given period of time than Bill Stephens. He has shown his heels to many of the best of them and has landed the grapes when such a proceeding was deemed impossible. He is warm friend and foe to be reckoned with.
 John M. Hines, jr., who has success fully handled the affairs of the coun- ty attorneys office the past two years, is candidate to succeed him. self. During his term of office he has had wide variety of cases to try and in practically all of them he has brought successful conclusion. Among the many bootleg cases he has secured many convictions. The one important case, which is now in the hands of the supreme court for consideration, was the murder case of Theodore West who was alleged to have murdered Lem Smith, his trav- cling companion. This case was handled in a 1nasterful way and a conviction of murder in the first de- gree, with a sentence of hanging was obtained. MT. Hines put before the court and jury the life history of West, showing him to be one of the most hardened criminals, the evidence
 being secured after search had been made over the country. Every effort has since been put forward to secure the release of this lowgrade murderer, but MT. Hines wrote brief on the
 case that we believe is conclusive. This brief goes far into the history and law of the case and we cannot we'll see how the appellate court can disturb the sentence, although men of influence are working for the set ting aside of the verdict of the court. Three rape cases were tried and con- victions obtained in each. Many cases were also tried in the justices courts of the county and $500 in fines ob- tained. A number of tax cases that netted the county $4,O00 in back taxes were also successfully tried. Two burglary cases tried resulted in con victions. The office has been con- scientiously taken care of, all cases needing the attention of the county attorney being carefully attended to.

CLOSE SCORE IN FIRST CAME OF
 SEASON HERE

The opening game of the season last Sunday between Kingman Flks and NeeC!es, had many exciting mo- ments. One in particular was when with a score of to 2 in favor of Needles, Price lined out home run. Unfortunately there were no men on the bases, but at that it brought the score up to to 8, at which the game closed. Most of the scores for both teams were made in the first innings after which the game frightened up.
 Smith started off for Kingman but couldn't get control and in the second was replaced by George, who every thing considered, pitched a phenom- enal game. George has not been us ing his arm any this season and to go in with practically no preparation and pitch the ball he did was out of the ordinary to say the least. Many fans are of the belief that George should be trained to twirl instead of playing his outfield position.
 Captain Robinson has plans for strengthening his lineup as the season progresses and Kingman is promised one of the best teams this year that they have ever had in the field. Sunday they go to Needles and Dunn, who was out of the game Sun day on account of bad arm will re- ceive with Price holding down the second sack. Price is hitting like a house afire this year, landing 3 out of the hits made in Sundays game. George made the other one. McMil- Ian, Robinson and Bale will probably be hitting their old stride in next Sundays game and smashing the ap- pie out in usual form.
 Fans turned out strong for last Sun days game and indications are that the interest in baseball this year is going to be at the top notch. It is hoped that additional seating accomo- dations will be forthcoming in the near future.
 Let's make 1922 the best season of baseball in history of Kingman.
 Following is the box score for Sun days game:

 MT. Jones was rendered and accepted a position with the County Assessor, which office he filled with ability. He had also been deputy treasurer and was considered one of the efficient aids to Treasurer Hubbs. If elected to the office to which he aspires we can assure the people, of the county of efficient and honorable service.
 E. Elmo Bollinger will be a candi- date at the forthcoming primary cleo tion for nomination to succeed him. self in the office of Superior Judge of this county. The candidate for judgeships in the state of Arizona oc- cupy a peculiar position. First they have to make the race for nomination on a partisan ticket, and when so nominated lose their party identity on a nonpartisan ballot at the general election. Nevertheless at the last election Judge Bollinger met with practically no opposition, and it is possible that the same condition will prevail at the primaries and the gen. eral election. During his term of off, flee he has been called upon to try some of the most important cases in the history of the state, and in fact of the southwest. The case of the Tom Reed United Eastern covered an angle of mining jurisprudence never before covered by court and the decision of the court was far reaching. He has been called upon to try cases in nearly every county in the state and has sat in appealed cases on the su- preme bench, where the other judges were disqualified. He has been con scientious in his decisions, friendships and political affiliations being for gotten in rendering judgments.
 Sam H. Miller is again a candidate for the office of Justice of the Peace for Kingman precinct. During the past two years he has filled this po- sition with credit to the people of the town, and we feel sure that he will get by with another victory. Sam will be in the race on the republican ticket at the primaries and there is na one in the party that can head him off. No more honest or efficient of ficer can be found in the county than he.
 Eleanor Armstrong announces her candidacy for the office of County Superintendent of Schools, subject to the action of the democratic voters at the primary election next Septem- Der. Mrs. Armstrong was school teacher in the schools of the south west a number of years and has had successful terms. She is well edu- cated, versatile, efficient and capable, and has host of friends who are out to put her over in the race.
 William L. McGee, who has been one of Sheriff Mahoney's deputies, is a candidate for the office of constable. MT. McGee has been a resident of Mo have county since boyhood and has served many times in an official cap acity in his home precincts. He Is painstaking officer and if elected to the office to which he aspires will give the people the best of service:
