HERE ARE REDUCED TAX XRATES
 FUR YAVAPAI SCHOOL DISTRICTS
Reductions in State and County
 Requirements are Matched in
 Many of Districts; Final Fi- gures on all Districts.

A generally decreased tax load will be carried by all parts of Yavapai county this year.
 Not only has the state rate been reduced from 73 to 51 cents and the county rate from coo to 49 cents, but most of the school districts have been able to cut their own rates by reason of greater state funds appor- toned this fall by Superintendent Elsie Toles, and also reductions in budget effected here.
 On the basis Of the 49 cent county rate, which Clerk R. E. Donovan said yesterday would be re-checked but would in all probability, stand "as is, D the Journal-Miner is able to present its readers this morning with com .plete tabulation of rates of the various school districts, together with "a comparison column showing last years rates.
 In eight districts, the rate is re- duced. In three there were no taxes levied for schools last year. In five, the rate is higher, due chiefly to levies for bond interest and sinking funds.

MT. and Mrs. John M'Lure Ham, ilton of London Arrived After Strike Delay to Visit Former Lowell Astronomer.

An unusual country, seen under unusual circumstances. That is the way John McLure Hamilton, noted London portrait painter and author put it on his strike-delayed arrival here yesterday with Mrs. Hamilton Their visit is to see Mir. and Mrs George Hale Hamilton, now located at the Josefa mine, south of town The younger MT. Hamilton is for. mer member of the astronomical staff of the Lowell Observatory al Flagstaff and for the past two months has been attending to the af fairs of the Josefa in person.
 "It is not dry, as l expected" the British artist commented as the after moons procession of short showers was in progress. He was assured that this lingering of the summer rains was unusual.
 "So is it to have such interrup' tions of railroad service in this coun try" replied the painter.
 You see this IS not Mir Hamilton first visit to America, by any means His previous tours have usually lec to the Rocky mountains of the west where he enjoyed the sporting" Al though well along in wears, the Eng lishman ie not beyond taking pleas rrc in the out-of-doors, and during his present stay, if any hunting pre- sents, he will resume favorite pas time.
 Mrs. Hamilton is quite sure tha she will enjoy it here. She has no seen her son-an only child, by tht way-for about five years.
 MT. Hamilton, whose portraits ot half a hundred of the foremost pub lie men of Europe have earned hin an enviable name, is the author of : unique book, dealing with these sit ters, and filled with comment such a: only an artist could make, about the characters he has portrayed.
 The length of the Hamiltons' visit is indefinite.

W|NCHESTER'S CASE IS UP IN
 NEW LAWSUIT

Efforts to recover by law the sum of $310,000, the largest amount asked in damages in the memory of most local attorneys, were started here yesterday with the filing of suit by the Arizona Jerome Copper company against number of local men in connection with the same mining claims that were centers of litigation just few weeks ago.
 A charge of conspiracy to de- fraud the plaintiff corporation of rights to mining properties in the Jerome district is contained in the complaint, which names the follow ing as defendants:
 LeRoy Anderson, E. A. McSwig- gin, L. S Colwell, Perry Ling, A. E. Wideman, Thomas Smart, H. w. Lewis, Joseph Larson, R. E. Moore, the Verde Jerome Copper company and others named merely as John Doe and Richard Roe.
 Melville E. Peters and J. E. Rus oSll SlSH lilC IOillPldllll dS NOullSSI and Josiah Winchester authenticates it in the affidavit
 According to the complaint, which is lengthy, the plaintiff sent H. K. Winchester to the county recorders office to file claims for assessment exemptions on 21 claims, and Col well, then a deputy under McSwig- gin, undertook to fill out the blanks. The complaint charges that the claims were not all listed and that later a company was formed to hold some of the claims that were filed on by the defendants.
 Lengthy and dIrascible inquiry was made into the case in two pre- vious lawsuits, the end of which came early in the summer with de cision in favor of Smart and his as, sociates.

IN BIBLE STUDY
 PRESCOTT BACKS REST OFF BOARD

Phoenix may have more farms right around it; Tucson greater population; Yuma an incomparably warm climate and Flagstaff the San Francisco peaks. But Prescott has at least one institution of which its people are becoming increasingly proud.
 That is the Fellowship Bible class, the largest organization of its kind in Arizona.
 It speaks volumes for the moral and religious standards of Prescott, that although small in population as compared with other cities in the state, Prescott maintains the largest Bible class.
 The Fellowship class meets at the Y. w. C. A. building every Sunday, and is made up of very live bunch of men and women, who are reach ing out after recruits. Last Sunday every foot of space was occupied and many stood outside who could not gain admittance.
 A committee is now hunting a place that will meet the requirements Of this rapidly growing organization.
 The class is not a denominational one.

TWO STREAKS LEFT STILL
 TO DEPUTIES
It Is Supposed That Flashes of Light Bursting Over Hill were Owners of Big Liquor Factory, Leaving There.

When sheriff's deputies crossed the skyline on a little divide to drop dcwn into a canycn near the Yellow Jacket mine yesterday, they were in- terested in the actions of two streaks of light.
 Tke officers were in search of a particular distillery. En route there, they observed tracks leading off to one side, and, as officers sometimes will, they left the main trail to in vestigate side trail.
 The two streaks were believed by the deputies, on further consideration Of circumstances in conntction with the case, to have been, in fact, two human beings in two separate but unanimous hurries. This theory was bovle out when the officers reached the bed of the canyon and discovered:
 (a) Mash, 700 gallons.
 (b) Booze, 16 gallons.
 Co Still, 1, in good order.
 They destroyed the mash, confis- cated the still and possessed them selves Of the liquor, which is very nice and clear.
 It was impossible to attach the names of the owners to the large ex- hibit placed in the vaults yesterday afternoon. Why? Because the names of the two streaks could not be learned. The last seen of them, they were hurling the dust from the farth- est hillside in a frantic break for cover

 RATE TOMORROW

With the completion of the work of the city council as a board of equalization, the city tax rate will be declared at a council meeting at | 10 o'clock tomorrow morning.
 That the rate this year will be slightly lower than last is forecast. Just how much the reduction will be cannot be determined until after the books of Assessor Frank Williams are passed upon by the equalization board and the total taxable value found.
 The city budget published short time ago, is expected to be adopted at the Wednesday morning meeting, at which time the estimates for the expenditures for the tax-year 1922-23 will be allowed, revised or stricken.

SECOND CUT
 |S OUTCOME
(Continued from page one)


 -~~-~~'~~~-~-~-~
 But they returned to Prescott yes terday with a different sort of er- rand. Still advocating economy, they requested the board in a joint meet ing with the full membership of the highway commission, to vote $15,000 of the road fund to the completion of two roads in the Verde valley that could not be finished by the commits sion on account of the fact the roads had cost more than the funds appro- priated for them by the voters in the bond issue election.
 MT. Kehr and then Mir. Duffy stated that it would be possible, with funds available at once, to use the crews now finishing these roads to go on and complete the original pro- grams. If, on the other hand, the roads are left uncompleted, great pressure will be brought to bear on the county and 1t will have to send its own or other crews to finish the work. The cost of this method would be from 40 to 50 per cent greater than if the jobs are completed with the crews now on duty.
 So, although there was an apparent demand for an increased expenditure of $15,000, in reality, it will amount to a saving of from $10,000 to $15,- 000, it was explained R. E. Moore, chairman of the highway commission, Chairman Midgley and others spoke for the motion, and 1t was passed.
 It was explained by Engineer Joe Mccarthy that there were no roads on the Verde side where federal or forest aid money could be applied. Yet, the highway commission has ob- tained about $7OO,OOO of federal aid money to be spent in connection with the $1,5OOO0O bond issue. This amounts to nearly 50 per cent in crease.
 All but about $5O,OOO. which is sup piled by the forest service, for the Fossil creek road, will be applied on the Prescost-Ash Fork and Prescott Wickenburg roads. Therefore, 1t was pointed out, it is no more than fair to appropriate $15,OOO additional for the Sedona and Cottonwood-C Camp Verde roads, to save the already completed work from damage by weather.
 There was a disposition on the part of the advocates of this measure to fear the effects of 1t, for the sec tional rivalry of olden days might crop up. But it was pointed out, it is better to have good road any where than to let partly finished work be destroyed or damaged. A strong plea for maintenance of the new road system was made. This year, especially, with the roads new and soft, will require greater main tenance than any succeeding year.

SERVANT OF TOWN
 HE CHOSE AS HOME

In civic and county affairs, the life of w. A. Drake was standard which few men attain and his ex- ample in this respect alone to younger men in this locality could mot be emphasized too strongly.
 Serving the Yavapai County Cham Der of Commerce as president, direc- tor and an active member, his rec ord of attendance at regular and called meetings stands first in the hundreds of active men who make up its membership. With the eXcep- tion of the time that he was confined to his bed by illness, he never missed a meeting of the organization.
 Taking his part during the war, serving on committees, and with the Frontier days and Northern Arizona State fair, actively interested and do- ing all he possibly could for the transportation problem, he helped make these associations a success.
 A tribute to his sterling worth was expressed yesterday when chamber of commerce officials remarked that his place in the ranks of the cham Der of commerce cannot be filled.

GOVERNOR CAMPBELL
 TO SEE SNAKE DANCE

One of the unique summer outings to be enjoyed by local folk will be that of Dr. R. B. von KleinSmid president of the University of South ern California, and Mrs. von Klein Smid, who are among the invited guests of Governor Thomas E. Campbell to witness the Hopi snake dance, says a Los Angeles paper. Each year the governor of Arizona invites a small party of celebrities to be his guests at this unique sur vival of the ancient customs of this tribe of Indians, and Dr. and Mrs. von KleinSmid are to be included in this number this year.
 The dance is held the latter part of August on a date set by the priests of the Hopi tribe, and it is expected to be especially interesting this year, as it will be held in a little village of the tribe and will conform more to the traditional forms.
 The governors guests will witness several of the kiva ceremonies not usually witnessed by white visitors, who journey many miles across the desert to witness this unique cere- monial.
