SUGGEST STATE TAX
TO ADVERTISE ARIZONA


Phoenix.-A plan whereby al real
estate in Arizona would be taxed at a
very low rate in order to raise money
for state advertising and boosting was
suggested by James p. LAWN, Phoe-
nix attorney, who has returned from
Florida, where he studied that states
unprecedented land boom.
An effort to tax Florida real estate
at the rate Of / mill per 500 valua-
ton is being made by persons who
have influence with the Florida legs
lature, Mr.. LAWN says, and the pro-
posed measure stands a good chance
of being put through.
at is not a bad idea, either" Mr..
LAWN said. Arizona should do the
same thing. The small fraction of a
cent would be negligible SO far as the
individual taxpayer is concerned, but
the aggregate sum raised thereby
could 10 wonders in promoting Ari-
zona's welfare.
'"This state needs more advertising
of its attractions. The world is watch
ing the Florida real estate boom, and
Florida has no more TO offer than has
Arizona.
"And here's another thing--a large
number of tourists are Going to Florl-
da and are coming away disappointed
and disillusioned. They viii be look
ing for other places to make their
homes, and Arizona should get her
share of them"

VOTE IN PRIMARIES
EXCEEDINGLY SMALL

ashington-Po are talk
ing advantage Of the recent primaries,
and the smallncss of the vote as COM
pared with the total number of voters,
again to call attention to the effect
that only a minor portion of our vot-
ers take part in the affairs of their
government.
And the most discouraging feature,
they say, is that the number of the
whole who vote seems to be getting
smaller in every election. Thirty
years ago, it is pointed out, approx
mately 80 per cent of those entitled
to vote, took part in the elections,
whereas in the last two presidential
elections only 80 per cent of the peo-
pie entitled to vote, voted. Primary
figures are even more discouraging
and in many instances candidates are
chosen by a very small percentage of
the total of the voters qualified to
take part in the election.
The figures of the voters in the
United States do not compare well
with the figures iIr other countries, it
is pointed out In the last general
election held in Great Britain, 80 per
cent of the qauified voters took part
in the election. In Australia the aver
age number of voters over a period
of years has been rs pei. cent, while
in New Zealand, noted for its inter-
est in politics, the total is "a per
cert. In Germany, where the republic
is still new and there are millions
still favoring the monarchial system,
from rs to 80 per cent have taken
part in the recent elections
1t is pointed out that if the num-
ber Of voters in America keeps. on
diminishing our system of representa-
tive government may in time become
endangered.

MANY OF AMERICAS
PRETTIEST GIRLS ARE
"BEAUTIFUL BUT DUNE"

Seattle, Wash. Beautiful but
dumb. That was the Indictment
hurled against many of Americas
prettiest girls by a man who has
had q lot of experience.
Armand I. Nichols, director gen
eral of the Atlantic City beauty
pageant for four years, set forth
his views of women here recently.
"The old saying of beautiful but
dumb is true," he said. you can
quote me to that effect il you wish.
Most Of the pretty girls have met
have heads as empty as their faces
are beautiful"
Scant clothes, bobbed hair, cos
metics and wild parties play too
important a part OF the makeup Of
the girl of today, Nichols declared.
Bobbed hair will go out, he pre-
dicted. Girls have their hair bob
bed because they are too lazy to
take care Of it or merely because
they want to be in the swim"
Nichols professed to see re-
turn to pre-flapper days in sight.
Il think the limit has been reach
ed" he predicted, chat the sweet,
gmodest girl of old is coming back
Bobbed hair is going out, it's only
a passing fad. Modesty in dress
will return without sacrifice Of
comfort"

and he was told again to leave.
Shaking the dust of this ungrateful
town from his feet, he turned back to
Mojave and arrived at San Xavier on
September II, 1776. The hardships
he underwent are inconceivable-
hunger and thirst, heat and cold,
sleepless nights and anxious days
were his constant portion. The diary
of his trip was done into English by
DR.. Elliott Coues, and was issued
with many notes in 1900. This trans
lator says of Father Garces: "Garces,
like our Saviour, so loved his fellow
men that he was ready to die for
them. This is true religion of what
ever sect or denomination, called by
whatever name"
Father Garces upon his return to
San Xavier devoted himself to the of

dams, and there, in 1881, in a general
uprising he was dubbed to death by
his faithless children.

BETTER VALUES CAN be
SECURED RIGHT AT HOME

About six weeks ago an eastern
firm sent to number of Prescott
men four neckties in box, and ac-
companied by q letter which stated:
eve trust you and offer ySu bar
gain; send us $1.50 and YOU can keep
the four good ties" Some bit; others
did not, but the ones who paid 33712
cents each for the four ties didn't get
any more than that much value re-
ceived.
The first lot Of neckties-from some
place in Pennsy sylvania--was enough,
but the mail-in-advance order house
idea seems to be as catching as the
measles, and last week a Los Angeles
concern displayed the same symptoms,
and sent about quarter of box car
of ties into the city, almost clogglng
the Spostoffice with the long slender
boxes. Nearly everybody in Prescott
was trusted" by the Los Angeles out
fit, and, until the recipients began to
shoot the consignment back, there
were more neckties in this city than
ever before in its history-more even
than in the old Gays when nccktie
parties were held in the spreading
dawn under tall tree.
1t was nice OF the eastern house and
the Los Angeles store to offer to
''trust" the prospective customer but
no nicer than fer the local merchant
to do it, and he does it every day
and isn't always paid.
The Prescott merchant pays taxes
here, he digs up for every drive and
community effort; he is part of the
city. Give him al your trade! You
cant build up the community by
spending your money in some other
place.-Prescott Courier

HEAVY RAINS MAKE
RANGES OF STATE GOOD

Heavy rains early in the week con-
tributed materially to the well being
of the ranges Of the district. Stock
continued to improve and range from
good to excellent in many sections.
From those sections where pastures
have been good for some time some
stock is being marketed in fine con-
dition. Notwithstanding heavy rains
in recent weeks range and stock in the
Prescott section are still reported
poor. Unusually heavy rains fell in
the Garnd Canyon, Williams and
Seligman sections and the supply of
stock water is consequently ample for
some time to come. The supply of
water in the vicinity of Ashfork is
also reported to be the best in years.
Range and cattle in the Douglas sec
ton are said to BE in fine condition.
Many cattle are beng marketed from
the Pinedale region where range con-
ditions are excellent and stock fat.
Heavy rains in the Seligman country
have been followed by a considerable
run-off and the storage of an amDle
supply of stock water. In the vicinity
of Ft. Bayard, NJ NJ, the grass has
matured, stock is fat and water is
abundant.
The heavy rain of October 5th, to-
gether with the back flow from the
Bouse wash seriously damaged large
area of cotton on the Indian reserva-
tion at Parker, much of the crop be-
ing submerged. Little damage to cot
ton resulted from rain in the Salt
River and Yuma sections but the crop
has been materially slowed up by the
cool weather The top crop is develop
ing slowly and much depends on fu-
ture temperature conditions. A good

a $50 bill, yellow with age, and re-
marked: This must not be spent

neighborhood Of the battlefield, and
took care OF them for several weeks,
until they had almost recovered from
their wounds.
One morning a company Of federal
soldiers surrounded the house and
took us prisoners to Danville, where
they kept us for several days before
taking the boys to prison. When the
lads were about to be taken away they
gave me this $40 bill for taking care
Of them.
Il refused at first. but they insisted
that take the money, for it would be
taken away from them anyway, and
might just as soon have it as anybody

bill and bade me goodby as they went

The Sahara Once Populated.


In studying the geological history
of this region. Gautier found evidence
that it was once rainless and was tru-
ly a desert. the gradual desiccation
advancing from the Soudan. Then the
era of permanent drought and COM
plete desert conditions gradually cana
TO an end. Today q rain belt is creep
ing up from the Soudan and is ex-
tending farther and farther north into
the desert. This new epoch may con-
sinue for hundreds Of years.
But the most startling testimony
which Gautier found was absolute
proof that long before the present age
OF rainfall, in, what s known as the
Neolithic or later Stone Age. a very
large population inhabited this part
of the Sahara. He found there graves
scattered over the grassy plain; ne
found many hundreds of their draw
ings on the rocks, where they had pic
tured animal forms and other OBJ
Jeets. He discovered the flattened
stones which they had used Tor grinc-
ing grain.
These millstones show that agri-
culture was then developed in tlat
region, and that the grinding Of gram
into flour indicates considerable adj
vance OF civilization. Here and there
were many arrow points, axes Of pei
ished stone, and other implements.
1t was many hundreds of years ago
that human beings inhabited this re-
gioD. but as time is reclxoned in geo
logical epocna, thousands Of farmers
we're tilling this part of the Sahara
at q comparatively recent period. They
were finally driven back into the Sou
dan by the increasing drought, and the
world forgot that tnis region had ever
been inhabited by man.-Review Of

Whether as hunter or the hunted, he
was a pygny compared with many OF
