4.S CENTS A MILE FARES
 CLAIMED HARMFUL TO STATE

The AS cents a mile intrastate pas- senger rate in Arizona, New Mexico and Nevada is discriminatory, harm ful and prejudicial" to the best inter ests of these states and their future development, witnesses testified at a hearing today before Examiner Hen ry c. Keene of the interstate com merce commission. A rate of 3.6 cents is in effect in all other states.
 The hearing is the second of a series of three. The final one will be held in Santa Fe, N. M., on June 21.
 The principal witness was F. A. Jones, former member of the Arizona corporation commission, who for more than 20 years has been connected with various western railroads. He de- scribed the AS cent rate as exorbitant and declared that a rate of 3.6 cents would increase the volume of traffic Tn the three states as well as in crease the earnings of the roads.

NEWS OF INTEREST GATHERED
 HERE AND THERE IN THE STATE
PHOENIX AND MESA TO
 HAVE NEW ARMORJES

Both Phoenix and Mesa will have new National Guard armories, if plans being worked out here are carried through, and it seems likely that they will be.
 Disappointed over the recent su- preme court decision preventing the city of Phoenix from using certain bond funds for armory purposes friends of the Phoenix armory idea have been busy with the city admin istration, with the result that splen- did site has been promised by the city if the state will erect thereon a $40,- 900 building. The deed for the site was to have been transferred last Thursday and as soon as this step is taken the Adjutant General will advertise for bids.
 When members of the artillery unit located at Mesa learned from Adju- tant General Ingalls, that there would still remain $24,000 in the armory fund, a committee was sent to inter- view the governor with the offer of a splendid site 100x330 feet. It is prob able that this site will be accepted and a model armory, the duplicate of the one at Flagstaff will be erected.

HUNT DENIES TRYING TO
 DRUM UP A HUNT TICKET

In view of certain rumors to the effect that George w. P. Hunt was attempting to induce Mulford Win sor, Homer Woods and others to step out as candidates for state office for a Hunt platform and ticket, the for mer governor emphatically stated that he was in no wise interested or con- nected with any such movement.
 Hunt said that he was interested in no other candidacy than his own, and that his attitude had not changed since the Tucson convention, when he declared that regardless of the action of the conference in endorsing certain persons for certain offices, no democrat should feel that he was barred from entering the primary race.
 It is now believed that the story of an all-Hunt ticket was put out by Ward propagandists in the hope of making it appear that Hunt was working to disrupt the organization. Word from Gila and Cochise is to the effect that Hunts nominating peti- tions are being widely signed and it is expected they will be filed with the secretary of state shortly.

WHEN BILLY BRYAN
 HAD HIS CLOSEST CALL

Considerable prominence was given the other day by press dispatch to a phenomenon of nature-a bottom less pit which suddenly appeared re- gently on a farm in Kansas.
 The dispatch stated that hundreds of people have been attracted to the scene.
 There is no need of Arizona people going to Kansas to view that phe- nomenon for they have had one of those bottOmless pits right here in Arizona many years-just four miles from Flagstaff.
 Naturalists in both Kansas and Arizona believe the caverns were caused by underground rivers or lakes.
 William Jennings Bryan almost lost his life at the bottomless pit near Flagstaff several years ago, when buggies were used instead of auto mobiles. He was riding by the Flag staff pit and drove too close, two wheels of the rig hanging over the sides of the cavern as he crawled out to place of safety. That was prob- ably closer shave than Bryan had during the first time he ran for president in 1896 when, it is said, of anarchists attempted to assassinate him.-Nogales Herald.

EDUCATORS WOULD
 AMEND CONSTITUTION

Petitions asking that a proposed
 constitutional amendment calling fol
 reorganization of the State Board of
 Education be placed on the ballot at
 the general election are being general
 ly signed throughout the capital city and Maricopa county.
 A total of 11,000 signatures of
 qualified voters must be secured and all petitions must be in the hands of
 Miss Elsie Toles, state superintendent
 of public instruction, not later than July l. The proposed amendment has the endorsement of the State Teach ers' association and of several com mercial organizations throughout the state.
 The principal feature of the pro- posed amendment is that providing that the general supervision of the public school system including high schools and normal schools shall be under the direction of State Board of Education, consistisg of seven members appointed by the governor. This board would have power to select a state superintendent of schools, a position that is now filled as an cleo tive office.
 The proposed amendment would not affect in any way the control ot the State University, which would re- main under the supervision of the board of regents. Nor would it af- feet the method of financing the schools by the creation of a perma- nent school fund as at one time pro- posed by educational leaders.
 Miss Toles, who has just returned from vacation" spent in the inter- estS of the measure, reports an act i've interest in university and normal school circles as we'll as the general public of Pima, Santa Cruz and Co., chise counties. The Tucson Cham Der of Commerce, the University of Arizona club, the U. of A. Alumni as- sociation, the Bisbee chamber of commerce and the Tempe Normal Alumni association are among those who have endorsed the measure, and in addition most of the county school superintendents are working in its behalf
 Miss Toles emphasized the fact that this is non-partisan move in the in- terests of greater efficiency in the schools. A popular feature of the measure is that it permits not more than four members of the board to be |. members of the same political party. | Members of the first board would be | chosen next January if the amend ment is passed, for terms ranging from one to seven years. Appoint nents thereafter would be one every year, thus giving each newly elected | governor the appointment of two

FORMER ARIZONA SCHOLAR MAKING
 STUDIES OF MARS

Professor W. H. Pickering, whom TucSonans will remember as director of the Flagstaff observatory, and who spent a number of years in the state of Arizona, is now in Jamaica at a branch station of Cambridge university, giving the planet Mars special study and getting out reports Of the changes occurring on the planet for astronomers and scientists. Dr. A. K. Douglass, of the Steward observatory, a friend of Professor Pickering, announced this information.
 "Since Mars is closer to the earth now than it has been for 12 years leading astronomers are making i'm portant observations of the planet" continued Dr. Douglas. "Its seasons are determined by a system which Professor Pickering and myself orig mated uome years ago. Others in- terested in this system formed a group of notables such as Mir. Phillips of England, Mir. Wilson of Tennessee, Prof. Lau of Denmark, and Dr. Me Cuen of Scotland, to continue the in- vest1gations.
 Through these special observations the seasons were found to be defin- itely marked on Mars. A summer season, an autumn and the ice and snow of winter. No definite con- clusion has been reached concerning it's liquid, as to whether it is water or some other fluid"
 According to Dr. Douglas, Profess sor Pickering has made number of remarkable reports to the leading ob- servatories in the United States since the special study began in Jamaica. Tucson Star.

 SHIPPED FROM STATE IN MAY

NUT FOR COMMISSION TO CRACK

In shipping a stone-boat by freight what rate should it take? This is the problem which has been passed up to the traffic department of the corporation commission. The railroad charged the same as for row-boat. The shipper claims that the stone boat is not boat at all but an agri- cultural implement used for hauling stones. The traffic clerk is busy looking up the tariff on gravel boats. If this differs from row-boats and Steam-boats he will be ready to ad- nit that maybe the shipper is right.
