The following received by the
Nogales International from state
headquarters Of the American Le-
gion at Phoenix under date of
August 4 is self-explanatory:
"On one or two occasions,
through the State, in the present
political campaign, capital has
been made of the fact that man
active in politics, is also a Le-
gionaire, and attepts have been
made to insinuate because some
Legionaire is working for parti-

can Legion is for that candidate.
"The Department Executive
Committee of the Legion following
directions from National Head
quarters, reiterates the position
that neither the State Department

COUNTIES

Instead of Santa Cruz and Pima
counties building a new cutoff be-
tween Ruby and Arivaca, the old

stated by Supervisor Hugo w.
Miller, Wednesday.
Miller, accompanied by Super

out Tuesday to the site Of the pro-
posed road construction and were
met there by County Engineer
Bruce Ellis Of Pima County and
Supervisor Compton of that coun-
ty, the road being partly in Santa
Cruz and Pima counties. Ex-
pense of repairing the highway
will probably be divided between
the two counties.
While on the road inspection
trip the party drove up to the
Idaho mine where they were sur
prised to find a 25-ton mill is be-
ing installed and is about ready to
start operation. The mill is being

ELL|NWOOD Be NOMINATED ON
sept. 7 SAYS SENATOR HARDY

Senator Leslie C. Hardy return,
ed to Nogales THURSDAY from a
trip which took him into every
county of the state except Nava-
jo and Apache. As an incident
of the trip Senator Hardy, in COM
pany with Senator Elliott, Of Clif-
ton, assisted in organizing Ellin-
wood-for- Governor Clubs through
cut the state. They were accom-
panied by their families.
In discussing the primary cam
paign Senator Hardy stated that
Mr.. Ellinwood would be the Demo-
cratic nominee for governor. The
Senator based this statement upon
the evident sentiment wherever he
had been, particularly as reflected
by the support given to Mr.. Ellin-
wood by the recognized leaders Of
the Democratic Party throughout
the state.
"There is" said Senator Hardy,
'two basic issues in the primary
campaign-the development Of the
Colorado River and economy in
spending public funds.
''It is now apparent to the peo-
pie of Arizona" said Senator
Hardy "that the administrations
policy upon the Colorado River
has been one of inaction. This
has led to friction. Arizona is not
upon speaking terms with the re-
naming basin states, and the Ma
tional Government so far as the
Colorado River problems are con-
cerned. Arizona's position on the
River, as moulded and spoken by
the Governors former Secretary,
Mr.. McClusky, has alienated the
neighborly interest Arizona had in
the River with California and
Nevada until, in disgust, the pow

In Nogales the hail, while large.
was not as big as that falling
along the river. However, the
hail here was larger than many
residents Of this city had ever
seen.
The hail storm was accompanied
by much thunder and lightning
and was followed by q heavy rain.
A heavy rain, general throughout
the county and particularly heavy
in the San Rafael and Camille dis
tricts, also fell here Thursday
afternoon. The recent rains have
made the San Rafael and other
districts of the county as green as
a wheat field, grass now being al
most a foot high, and stockmen
and farmers more than jubilant.

It will cost $351,622.22 to run
the county during the present year
ending June 80, 1927, according
to the county budget adopted
Monday by the Santa Cruz Coun-
ty Board of Supervisors. This is
slightly larger than the budget OF
the past fiscal year which totaled
1915, ,52O.30.
The increase is due principally
to increased school expenses. The
general school fund in the new
budget was figured on per cap
ita of $40, and last year on a $65
per capita. This makes an in
crease in the county general
school fund of $7,981.
Nogales High School District
No. has an increase in its budget
of $6,083.81 over last year, and
the grade schools in District No.
1 $11,285 increase.
The Patagonia High School
budget, which was not in exist
ence last year, calls for expendi-
lures in the new budget totaling
$18,500.
