PEDRO ESPIL ACQUITTED
IN CITIZENSHIP CASE

Pedro S. Espil, prominent sheep
man of Flagstaff was ordered dis
charged from custody by Judge Fred
C. Jacobs at Phoenix when the de-
fendant appeared in the federal dis
trict court on a charge of falsely rep
resenting himself as citizen of the
United States.
The complaint against Espil was
signed by Assistant United States At
torney George T. Wilson and was
supported by a certified indictment
returned against Espil by the grand
jurors of the southern division of the
northern district of California. Ac-
cording to the testimony introduced
at the trial, Espil came to the United
States from France in 1891. He
claimed that he was naturalized in
San Francisco in 1899. All records
of NATURALIZATION were destroyed, he
contended, in the San Francisco earth
quake and fire, and in 1920, the SUI
perior court of California restored the
record of his naturalization.
1t was charged that the papers
were fraudulently obtained, and it was
sought to remove Espil to California
to face the charge. The writ of
habeas corpus was denied following
the plea of Attorneys j. Henderson
Stockton, Thomas A. Flynn and J..
Early Craig, who filed opposition to
the removal of Espil to the coast.

Twelve hundred dollars will be Of
fered among the big cash prizes at the
Prescott Frontier Days, July /, 2, 3
and 4, for the cowboys rangeland re-
lay races. Six hundred dollars will
be awarded in the bulldogging. These
are the only two events in which the
prize money has been increased over
that. offered in previous years. As a
result of this action on the part of
the Northern Arizona State Fair as
sociation and the Prescott Frontier
Days, some of the finest range horses
in Arizona, will run neck to neck for
this money. @
Fun and frolic reign supreme at the
Prescott Frontier Days contest. The
spirit Of the old west, as we'll as the
new, may be enjoyed at their best.
The arena gives to the newcomer a
thrill, showing some idea of the every
day life of the range, as it is lived
by the men who own and operate the
large range holdings of Arizona.
Keen competition is shown in
every event, for as rule, the man
entered would much prefer to win the
honor of having tied a calf, steer or
ridden bronc better than his op-
ponent than he would to win the ac-
tual cash money.
Prescott presents a gala appearance
on the four days, when she furnishes
pasture to the world. More actual
contestants are found in the arena of
the Prescott Frontier Days than at
any other frontier days contest in
the United States or Canada. The
records will bear proof of this state

that theirs is not show, but con-
test Low excursion rates will be in
effect from all sections of the coun-
try and the fun of attending the
frontier days plus the night stunts in
Slippery Gulch is beyond description.

NEW ARIZONA SOAP
NEEDS NO WATER

A waterless soap adapted to almost
every variety of household and cleans
ing use is the latest Arizona product
to attain commercial manufacturing
1t is being produced by new local
company which has equipped plant
having a capacity of 5000 pounds a
day, and statewide distribution has
been started.
The soap is compound not unlike
cold cream in appearance, containing
no grit, acid or other substances that
might be injurious to skin or cloth,
or other material. Owing to the fact
that it can be used on hands and face
without water, cleansing perfectly
without leaving grease, it is featured
especially for mechanics and tourists.
Among other household uses the
soap serves for the laundry, cleans
woodwork, enamelware, dishes and
silver, and takes the place of the
usual powder cleanser.
The formula under which the soap
is manufactured was originated by an
Arizona man, who took it up with the
Arizona Industrial Congress, and the
formation of the company which is
making it is the result. Plans for ma
tional distribution are under way, as
those who have given it exhaustive
tests declare the soap compares ex-
cellently with the finest similar prod
ucts on the market.

REFERENDUM IS FILED
AGAINST SANITARY CODE

Petitions asking that Senate Bill
No. 1913, passed by the Seventh legis-
lature, amending the livestock sani-
tary code of the state, be presented
to the people of Arizona as referen
dunn measure at the next election were
filed with James H. Kerby, secretary
of state.
The 288 petitions, containing 5251
signatures, were presented to Mr..
Kerby by committee headed by
James I. Gentry. The signatures it
was stated were from number of
counties of the state.
1t also was stated by the comittee
that 1900 more signatures had been
obtained in Yavapai county, but that
they could not be filed due to tech
nicality in the petitions which pre-
vented them from conforming to the
law.
For some time, rumors have been
heard that the livestock sanitary code
which becomes effective early in June
was to be initiated as a referendum
measure. The filing of the petition
yesterday, will have the effect of
withholding the bill from becoming a
law until it has been presented to the
people for vote.
The bill made complete revision
of the livestock sanitary code provid
ing among other things for continu-
ing board of livestock commissioners,
serving terms Of six years each. 1t
also had made a number Of changes
in the slaughtering laws of the state.
The bill was the only one adopted
during the entire session of the legis-
lature that reached the office of the
secretary of state without the sigma
.ture of the governor The governor
refused to sign the bill for the reason
that the appointment of the livestock
commissioners was to be made in 1927
which he declared would deprive him
of the appointment of the new board,
as his term expires December 81.
