Murray cuffs Johnson with his right. Johnson puts left to Murray's face. Clinch. Murray takes several upper cuts. After the break Murray acci- dentally slipped to the floor on a wet spot in his corner. Clinch. Johnson uppercuts Murray with two right and a left. JohnSon's blows, however, seemed to lack pep. Both men are missing Murray puts right to head. Johnson uppercuts Murray with right and left and then puts two blows to the head. Murray seems able to take all Johnson has and puts left to head. Murray accidentally falls to floor and
 negro tumbles down on top of him under ropes. Johnson evidentally fig ured that if the white boy was going to do any resting he would have a ,snooze himself. Both men came up refreshed. Murray puts left to jaw. Johnson misses right to jaw but lands left. Both landed to head. Clinch. Johnson keeps busy with his upper cuts in the clinches. Murray bounces of ropes and puts left to head and follows with punch to stomach. John son puts right to head. Both men were slowing up as the round ended. Round even.
 In the second preliminary of four rounds Joe Quartz of Needles was giv- en the decision over Slim Periott of Oatman. Slim put up a great fight but unfortunately connected with a stomach punch which slowed him up.
 In the first four-rounder Slim White and "Young Mex" fought snappy four-round draw which greatly amused and pleased the fans.

 The shots were pretty loud last night. At midnight, widening out of sound sleep, it sounded like maybe Gabriel had come to blow his trumpet for just a second, but it was only patriotism expressing itself in noise.

would probably inform him of very surprising thing
that the only qualification for the office of secre-

referred to the fact that the prohibition OF which
Secretary Meiion's occupancy Of the office is IN
violation kept A. T. Stewart out Of It Mr.
Stewart in 1879 was the greatest merchant in the
country. He was appointed to the treasury by
General Grant that year. The objection was success

and that fact, since he then probably the

Secretary Mellon is not engaged in commerce

Secretary Carlisle in the last Cleveland adninstra-

There only four more days for registration
for the city primary. The registration period ends
February %, but as that is legal holiday the
time for qualifying to vote ends on the night of
February 2t.
Not enough citizens of Phoenix have registered
TO date, not than one-fourth of those who are
entitled to register. If this slow pace is maintained,
the showing for Phoenix will not be good one
we suppose many OF those who have so far
neglected to register have done so under the old
notion that primary elections are not of much i'm
portance. That was always mistaken notion. 1t
was always the primary that was supposed to bring
out the strongest and best candidates. mistake
made at primary was always one which could not
be corrected
In our the mistake will be more serious
for the primary will be the whole thing and
there win be occasion for registering the gen.

general election. The primary will sette It all
Therefore register today and avoid the rush Of
the three succeeding days. Each day will be more
congested than the preceding day.
Get your nelghbor out to register, and all your
friends and acquaintances.
Tell them they cannot be first-class, at least,
not fun-fledged citizens unless their names are

If we in the real estate business or in any

Tn. Anti Ford sarras.

There comes to With almost daily regularity
in the barrage from the Nattona Fertilizer Associa-
tion why the government should
not let Henry Ford have the Muscle Shoals property
The latest is that there Is now twice as much sui
phate ammonia produced as Is used in fact that its
has increased only slightly since the war. during
which the production enormously increased
There has been no corresponding increase of its
And it is selling at s4SIo ton. Therefore
need Of making any more.
Perhaps not at the price which the farmers have
to pay for it, but the why farmers organiza-
tions generally favor the leasing OF the Muscle Shoals
property to Mr. Ford is because he says that he
greatly reduce the price OF it, and Mr. Ford has
reducer.
One thing believe is generally understood is
that not enough fertilizer is used in this country.
rule, soils getting poorer doubtless the
why more fertilizer is not used is because the
price of It is too high If Mr.. Ford can considerably
reduce the price, there will be many better farms in
the country and greater production.
Then, another thing that the objectors to the
Muscle Shoals project do not refer to is the GER
tanty Of the production OF cheaper power which is
to be the chief commodity OF that enterprise ferti

hardly less difficult to make people believe that
with the Muscle Shoals plant in operation Mr.. Ford
cannot produce it.

ii To the Editor
Mr.. Editor:
February is, 1922.

feDruary 10, lS5z.
Mr.. Editor:
The writer having been somewhat
active in the selection of the citi-
zens' city ticket. Moore, Hotchkiss
and Button, which is now in the
field, and, further, having signed the
endorsement of said ticket, which
endorsement was published with the
names OF the signers of the same.
and having later changed my atti-
tude toward that ticket and accepted
the management of the campaign of
the taxpayers ticket. Lon Harmon,
Wilbur Treadwell and Dr.. Ellis,
think that, in Justice to myself and
to the men on the citizens ticket,
Moore, Hotchkiss and Button, as
well as TO my other fellow citizens
who are bending under the load of
taxes, it is due from me to publicly
state the reason for this complete
reversal Of attitude: When l as
sisted in the selection of the citizens
ticket I was actuated by but one
motive; that was to change the pres
ent tax conditions and moral condi-
tions of our fair city. and make It a
good town to live in and a place of
prosperity where ones business
would no longer be confiscated
through the medium of taxation, di-
rect and indirect. At the opening of
the first meeting which selected this
ticket took pains to state my views
and desires in no uncertain terms.
understood that the men selected
realized the conditions and the neces-
sity for an immediate and radical
change as l did and were heartily
In favor Of making such changes
promptly, and without fear, favor,
friendship or fraternal preference.
After the nominations were made it
was persistently rumored that the
citizens ticket--Moore, Button and
Hotchkiss-were really selected by
the warm personal friends of the
present administration. These ru-
mors became so. numerous and so
persistent that / began to investi-
gate, and the more / investigated
the more / was persuaded that the
rumors had some foundation in fact.
and yet l refused to believe. At last
I went to Mr.. Button, gentleman
whom / respect and like, a good,
clean young business man. whom
most of you know, and told him of
these rumors: That the present ad-
ministratlon was to remain intact
unless they found corruption and dis
honesty to satisfy the commissioners
that removal should be made. He
told me that he could not and would
not say that he would help remove
the present incumbents until he had
time to investigate their conduct and
satisfy himself that dishonest things
were being done. I asked him if he
were not satisfied now, that our ad-
ministration was inefficient, extrav-
agant and wasteful, and he said he
had stated his position in the papers
