Irish otatoes
Again Permitted

Irish potatoes, which have been
barred from the United States at
Nogales since March %, 1888, have
now regained their former good
standing as Immigrants" and will
be passed from Mexico by the in
spectors, according to an announce
ment made by G. E. Bells, District
Supervisor, U. S. Department of
Agriculture.
There is one proviso in the new
regulations, however. The potato, to
be able to pass to the Arizona side
of the line, must be native born
product of the state of Sonora.
Orders to stop the importation of
potatoes grown in Mexico Issued in
March were due to the fact that
the Sonora crop became exhausted,
and potatoes were brought in from
the state of Sinaloa, district not
known to be free of certain in
furious insects and diseases insofar
as the Department is concerned.

Ann Frohmiller
Candidate
For Reelection

In announcing my candidacy for
reelection, on the Democratic tick
ct, to the office of state auditor, I
wish to express my appreciation for
the confidence placed in me by the
people in the 1886 election.
The principal requirement of the
state auditor is to audit, investi-
gate, adjust and settle clans against
the state, payable out of state
funds. The auditor must determine
whether a claim is for an actual
public purpose, and if not, pay
ment must be refused. Great re-
sponSibility rests upon the auditor
and I have endeavored to viligant-
ly guard the expenditures of state
moneys. I have constantly kept be-
fore me the fact that my first duty
is to the people of Arizona My de-
cisions have been made without
prejudice or for political effect.
My knowledge of the laws per-
tanning to state finances and my
experience in governmental ac-
counting, believe, affords the peo-
pie of Arizona assurance that I am
quilted to continue in, and ade-
quately administer the office of
state auditor.
At all times my aim has been to
be courteous to the public; to de-
partmental officials and govern
mental employees. If my official
acts have met with approval I shall
appreciate being returned as state
auditor.
