STATE COMMITTEES ID MEET AT CAPITOL DAY BEFORE FORMED

If the state law relating to the or ganiZation of the Republican and Democratic state and county commit tees is followed to the letter this year, according to George R. Hill, assistant attorney general, the state committee of each party will be re- quired to meet at the state capital building one day before these com mittees have been formed.
 This queer situation is brought about, MT. Hill said, by the unusual position of the dates and days in Sept, this year and by the peculiar wording of the law relative to com mittees The law in the matter in substance is that 14 days after the primary election the precinct com mitteemen elected at the primary election by each party shall meet in their country and organize by elect ing a chairman and other officers. This law provides further that on the last Monday in the month of the primary election, the chairman chosen by each of the county committees shall gather at the state capitol building at noon on this last Monday and organize by electing a chairman and officers.
 So much for the wording of the law. it's operation is the vital ques- tion and by solving it some young attorney may gain distinction for himself. The county committeeman will meet on September 26, 14 days after the primary election and orga' nize, while the state committee will meet at the capitol building on the last Monday in September which ls September 9 and organize.
 The question which arises is how can the state committees composed of the chairmen of the various county committees meet as provided for by the law, when the same law pro vides that the chairmen of the re. spective committees cannot be elect ed until the next day.

100000; as that is 4 per cent of the valuation.
 In order to save the homes and farms of the state from being en gulfed in excess taxes, the tax in debtedness must cease growing, he declared. Of another amendment that to change the term of state of ficers from two to four years, he voiced opposition.
 ''If the people of this state would use the recall to remove dishonest officials or incompetent ones, four. year term would be satisfactory he said. But the people have never shown a willingness to use the recall consequently I feel a two year office is long enough"
 He pledged himself not to seek of, flee for more than one term, saying more men, more mothers sons should have a chance at the govern orship of Arizona If I win, and we have Governor Tom, Governor Charlie and Governor George, all seeking the place, there won't be chance for another man for years. as we three are all in our prime.'
 Discussing taxes, MT. Ward said he had been constantly misquoted ol, his stand regarding taxes, by the Republican press of the state. ''Tho papers have published that I have said I would abolish numerous com missions and groups, which is not so. I have said I will cut down on the size of the present boards, re- duce their appropriations where pos sible, and not form any new boards or make new offices"
 Previous governors have in some cases built up powerful personal or ganizations in the state government which form menace. With but one term of office wanted this per sonal organization in the party will not he formed by me-" Mir Ward said. "A great deal of mystery has been built up around the office oi governor" he continued, whereas, as a matter of fact, any good busi ness man or farmer with business sense could be an afficent and cap able chief executive of a state"
 Of taxation, he said, he could not pledge himself to cut taxes immed lately, because the power of the gov. ernor was very limited, as a matter of fact. in regard to taxes. If people will insist on reducing taxes, be ginning must be made in county city and school budgets, he said. as they at present form the largest part of the tax burden. Before electing county officials, he advised, find out what they will do in regard to cut ting down tax rates. Greater eco nomy could. and should be practiced in school administration. he declared

GRAHAM COUNTY
 ROAD CONSTRUCTION IS NOW UNDER WAY

over in Graham county the County Highway Commission in charge of the construction of highways under $5OO,O00 bond issue is getting it's program under way. Actual con struct1on work has started on some sections including a force of man on the connecting link between the Cliff tonsSafford highway and the Duncan Stafford route.
 The secretary of agriculture has ap- proved the project statement for Federal Aid Project No. 43. which provides for six and a half miles of paving from Stafford westward. That work will be advertised as soon as the district engineer approves the plans and specifications. Two addi- tlonal projects have been applied for by the Graham County Highway Commission and if these are ap- proved it will mean 20 miles of nay ing in the upper Gila valley, running from Solomonville to Mathews wash. and connecting at that point with the state highway.
 Graham county assisted by the Ari- zona Highway Department has recon structed three miles of road from the Greenlee county line toward Solo monville, on the Duncan-Solomon- vile road, and it is planned to com plete this road seven miles farther to the junction of the Clifton, road. A cut off has been surveyed which will shorten the distance between Solo knoxville and Duncan by approxima- tely three miles,
 In this county state forces have constructed the Mule Creek trail to the top of Black Jack pass and are working down the mountain toward Mule Creek post office Grant coun- ty (New Mexico) forces are continE- ing the road to meet the Arizona work, so that the new connection to Silver City may be completed at an early date.
 It is expected that work on the Arizona end will be completed m October and the New Mexico work in November.

 With Bourne slain and her bus band shot through the head and dy- ing, Mrs. Mcclure walked three miles to the nearest ranch and told her story to the cowboys there. One of the cowboys rode 15 miles through a terrific rainstorm to Wagoner, ar irving there about 1 o'clock Wednes day morning. He notified Supervi sor c. c. Stukey who rode to Kirkland and summoned the sheriff, coroner and doctors by telephone early this morning.
 Officers immediately left Prescott and started in automobiles for the scene of the shooting.

JAMES GALE RETURNS FROM
 EXTENDED WESTERN TRIP

James Gale, of Duncan, has been spending a few days at the home of his son R. B. Gale, on his return iron, a three months trip along the Pacific Coast, during which time he visited his sons at Los Angeles and Bradley.
 It is interesting to note that 69 years ago MT. Gale came with his parents from Australia, landing in San Pedro Harbor, now known as Los Angeles Harbor, in 1858, going by wagon to San Bernardino and sub sequently moving to Arizona.
 At that time the ocean voyages were made in sailing vessels and it took nine weeks to come from Aus tralia to the coast of California
 MT. Gale has been for some time living on borrowed time. but is hale and strong and bids fair to weather the Gale for many years yet. Hail to this fine old pioneer.-Lordsburg Liberal

As if the thirsty American did2not have enough to contend with in these days of Volstead trough. imported stuff. and prohibition agents, now come a gang of Mexican "slickers,' attempting to capitalize on their thirst

To those who failed to answer the first letter, the packers of the scheme has just sent out the conventional fol low-up" letter, in the hope of snaring the vedane sucker.
 The letters were filled with the usual sucker bait" The offers open with the information that the address sees name has been furnished by "a friend" Delivery of the rye" is promised between the 3rd and 18th of September. At the close the recip- tent is requested to f'burn this let ter' the usual hOkum.
