MtAR WAWiKlirOH Complaint was filed yesterday with the interstate commerce commission by the Arizona corporation commission in behalf of the California Pine Box and Lumber company covering reparation to the amount of $126.50 predicated on one carload of box shooks shipped from Williams to Clifton. The complaint tates that a rate of 513.S0 per ton was charged on the shipment, whereas the interstate commerce commission has named a reasonable schedule of rates from Williams and related points to certain-destinations in Arizona, not including Clifton, and the commission requests that reparation be made on a basis of SS.S0 per ton. The complaint is filed against all the carriers by whom the shipment was moved, namely the Santa Fe, Arizona Eastern, Southern Pacific and Arizona and Xew Mexico railroad companies.

Some Peculiar Bug Has Been Stringing Motorey-de Men There and Pe-euliar Unsportsmanlilie Actions Are Result. San Diego is attempting to renig on her own proposition for running The Coast to Phoenix motorcycle road endurance race for the. fall of, 1914 according to many prominent mem-tiors of local motorcycle circles.

After attempting to grab ail the glory for the first race that was run to Phoenix from the southern, expo sition city, the motorcycle sharps over there are wanting to change' everything to suit themselves in spite i of their agreement or else dron alii connection with the proposition. This situation does not set very well on-the minds of the local men but they are not without hopes of finally bringing some son of order out of the chaos even if it amounts to compromising with San Diego on certain matters in connection with the race. When the motorcycle road races were first agreed upon, the two clubs 1f the cities agreed also that San Diego should run the first one, Phoe- nix the second, and that they should both be from San Diego' to Phoenix. In consideration of this the race in 1915 was to be from Phoenix to San Diego. Then the boys of the two lawns raisea tne money to conduct the race Phoenix raising most of it by the way.

Now comes the second race. San Dreeo is perfectly willing to have the rae start from that city but wants te place the date a. week ahead of the Arizona "State Fair something that will be of no earthly use' to 1 J'noemx and this also after the Fair commission nas agreed to put up some of the money and San Diego knows it. San Diego's answer to the cry of unfairness that goes up from Phoenix in face of this is to let Phoenix off with a S100 subscription and let the local boys run everything. A counter proposition has been sent in making the proposition so mat uie race can De run to end here iair -week; and, to pledge San Diego i lor somewhat more of a purse than $100.

San Diego is very much larger than Phoenix and more able to put tip money for an event that so well advertises the city as does this.

Announcement is made that the Bearkins will meet the Tigers on Seo- tember 26 next for a ferocious iuncle battle.

The Tigers defeated the Cubs lasl year and in consequence Reno is anxious for the pelts of the striped cats. Both camps naturally will do Iots of training. After the practice the regular weekly meeting was held and many of business were disposed of. his finger split in the fifth by tip. Score r.

POPE GIVES GOOD ONE ON FIRESTONE' TIRES A.

Pope, the wide awake agent for Firestone Tires has returned from a visit to Los Angeles during which time he combined both business anil pleasure in his usual enterprising way. While away he heard a few good ones in connection with Firestone tires among which he told the following: "Xt long since when Villa's men. were making an advance near El Toro. one of the motor trucks in the main force ran out. of gasoline.

A service truck loaded with gasoline, oil, extra tth.es and a complete repair outfit was ordered up from the rear unci refilled the gas tank. The march was continued and the service wagon then waited for the rear guard to come up. While tile truck was thus resting in the road between the main body and the rear guard, the federals, under Colonel Coo-Coo made an attack on the service car from the left flank. All the service squad had in the way of weapons was a sack full-of Bull Dur ham, a spy glass and a shot gun. "Xothing daunted.

Corporal Pedro ordered the spare Firestone Tires with their steel rims, which the service wa gon carried, unloaded from the truck and placed as .1 barricade. Behind this rubber and steel bulwark. Villa's men felt safe. "As the federals fired, the" bullets rebounded and killed Colonel Coo-Coo's men in great numbers: the gallant Coo-Coo himself being among the five killed and wounded. Thus weakened, the federals were force to retreat.

"When the rar guard came up they found the service wagon crew enjoying a quiet game of Monte within the confines of the rubber rampart." "In view of the effect this story may have had upon Villa, 'it is suggested that war correspondents look behind every pile or Firestone Tires they come across, considering the possibility of finding Pancho there esconeed enjoying a (juiet game in safety. place in the Federal league by beating Chicago mainly through good pitching and hard hitting.

Coast League Picnic at Riverside "The People's Playground" A Good Time for a Dime Xow that the fall season is at hand, when the weather and climatic conditions here are PERFECT FOR PICXICS and out of door gathering we wish to call the attention of all the lodges, societies, churches, Sunday' schools, families and individuals of Phoenix and vicinitv to the opportunites and advantages Riverside Park offers for the holding of picnics, social gatherings and entertainments for the benefit, pleasure and better acquaintance of everyone. Nearly all of us remember with pleasure the fall picnics of the old daw 'back East," when everyone packad a basket lunch and went to the woods for the day and had a good time out of doors. Such gatherings always bring lodge, church and society members and their families into a close and pleasant relationship of a more intimate nature than is possible in town.

Xew friends and acquaintances are made and old friends are made better' friends. It is a relief to the women and children just to get aivay from home for the day and forget the household cares; the war hard times and business worries are forgotten by the men, and evervone has a good time and FEELS BETTER FOR IT. Heretofore there has been no suitable place in this vicinitv for the holding of such gatherings, but now that Riverside Park has been boilt at vonr yppv 1nrr rw? again last night, and 1 didn't see a single one sorry he was there- 1 si try to tell you what I saw; I sure am" "vodvil" crazy a man who passes up that show does so because he's lazv. How About This A Lubin feature started the thing; I'm talking "movies" now. You know one lime I didn't like a picture, but somehow when I see on.e like that lust night, I simply have to roa'.

'cause, pal, that is some picture; couldn't ask for nothiir" more. "A Cross in Crime" is what it's called a pippin of a story it takes two reels 10 run it through but each scene adds to the glory that Lubin topped off long ago; it sure did make some hit the finish of that story almost made me throw a fit. Then out comes act that's number one it's Hayter and. Janet for good clean comedy they cert'ny cop the one best beL It's just a simple talking team with singing on the. side, but say, they just mopped up, old man.

I clapped till 1 thought- I'd just bust my hands; 1 am an eager guy to give an act some good applause whenever it gets by. And listen Bud, don't ever think was the only one thatc lapped hands: why, all the folks just joined right in the fun. And when at last the finish tame that team did sure look happy, 'cause any time they get a hand, it makes their work, more t-nappy. The second act is toatin' three every one of them a winner." I wouldn't fib to you, old man. 'cause you know I'm no sinner.

They've got a stunt worKcd with the teeth a novelty affair it starts off with a dainty miss a-swinging in the air orr a rope that's tied 'way up in the flies. I thought I'd seen them all, but that one made me "ope" my eyes. And then two more came out that swelled the bunch all to three. Boy. they cert'ny started something with that swinging jamboree.

The last act is a dancing team got something on them all. I haven't seen an net as good since sometime way last fall. They start off with a singing dance, and boy. they are a riot I'd like to see some of those hams just get up there and try it. Vhen out he comes for soft shoe work Geo.

Primrose style, you know the way he slings his feet around just makes almost a show. Then out she pomes n-danein- amT a-runnin' cn her toes: the way she docs that stunt I ain't found no one yet that knows. It's just as graceful as a bird, don't think I'm sentimental but that dance even beats the stuff they call the Oriental. Well, so long boy; I've got to quit: I'll write again next week if you don't hear from me. old man, you'll know I sure am meek.

DICK. THE INDEPENDENT VOTER THE HOPE OF THE NATION (By Goo. B. Wilcox.) Tlie most dangerous, as well as th most useless individual, from the standpoint of national welfare, is the voter who takes pride in referring to the fact that ho has always voted a straight ticket in other words, the dog" voter. The man who has no more interest in the welfare of his country than he who votes a candidate, just because said candidate happens to be on his ticket, is a dangerous proposition.

He acknowledges to the world that he does not think for himself, and that his judgment Ls worth nothing, for he is willing to place in a position of trust any individual, no matter how dishonest or incompetent the candidate may be, if he has been able through hook or crook to land tile nomination on the ticket. If all voters allowed themselves to be herded and influenced in this way, a party once in power could never be ousted, except by a revolution, and our government would soon bo-come a farce. Thank goodness! we have enough broad-minded men and women in this country, who are not controlled in this wav who hold the balance of power, and have independence enough to use that power an emergency arises to defeat any political organization that has become so corrupt and arrogant that it has become a menace to s-ood This class of voters not only, inform n.emr.eives as to the principles a party stands for before giving it their support, but look into the past history of the order to determine for themselves as tc whether or not his record, and dr.il5- life, is such as to guarantee his wiiceniy in pledging himself to carry out his party program, and his ability to do so if elected. The man who. in these enlightened times, makes the boast that he would rather vote for a yellow dog on his party ticket, than vote for the best man in the community appears on the opposing ticket, is either a fool or a knave, and sbnni.i never be elected to nuhlic is dangerous enough as a voter but as an office holder he is a menace.

The intelligent i.t.i: tne balance of power, demands that a party shall have an up-to-date i-iogram, ana candidates who a able and willing to carry out th are at program, oetore it, or they. count on his supoprt. This is as an it should be. The day of the "vellow dog" voter is past.

"The Soul Kiss" is as free from plot as the average busy person could desire, but there are all the other qualities that make for an evening or pleasant entertainment in abreviated form. Witty dialogue, bright repartee, tuneful songs of recent and some not quite so recent vintage, stirring music, bevy of shapely chorus girls with life and rythm, new costumes and scenery, and a dasli that makes for a good show, are combined for merriment that makes an audience patiently await the new attraction to follow. "Bobbie" Dean will come into her own tomorrow night, when "The Million Dollar Doll" "will have a lavish staging.

Miss Dean is a prime favorite in Phoenix, and that she will be the central' figure of the next offering is assurance of a "sell out" early in the evening. Tomorrow night the first of the Pathe reels in which European activities are shown is one of the two new subjects to be presented prior to each of the two nightly musical shows. Owing to the large crowds, as many as can conveniently do so. be seated by 7:30 for the first show, and the second show will begin promptly at 9:10. Foggs Millions The two reel Vitagraph picture at tlie Lamara today under the title of Millions" is one of the best Vi-tagraph's that has been seen here in many a long day.

It is a story or the marriage of an intriguing actress to a millionaire and what came of it. and it is distinctively wortli while. The Selig news pictorial this week shows the men of the animal department of the Chicago Zoo clipping the claws of one of the largest lions in captivity and it is some job. The -split Lubin picture is a side splitter for fair. The Wilderness Mail The Selig company played a winner when they produced the great picture that is the headliner at the Arizona tonight, and which occupied a prominent place on the bill yesterday.

It is not often that a Phoenix audience applauds a Picture but the large crowd did last night. There are two reels of the picture, Tom Mix the intrepid cowman and champion of the world appears in the picture most prominently. "Prosecution" is the name of a stirring Vitagraph film, while the Lubin is a great laugh producer. The Sign of the Secret Nine This is not a baseball picture but a of one of the wildest bunches of society thieves that ever story is told in three parts on the screen of the Plaza theater today, where it is a part of the six reel feature bill. "The Yellow Streak" a Pathe comedy, and "A South African Whale Hunt" an Edison, together with a comedy picture "The Dodge That Failed" go to make up a most complete and satisfactory bill.

"WAR IS HELL" Today is feature day at the Lion theater and the program contains six reels of interesting film, in which the feature is a. four-reel Pathe colored production entitled "War Is Hell." It is a splendid well acted and contains an exciting figiit between aeroplanes in mid-air. and a thrilling explosion in a mill. This picture will give you an idea of conditions in the European war. A Thanhouser drama.

'The Leaven of Good." and a Keystone drama, entitled "The Eavesdropper." complete the program, which is exceptional from everv standpoint. The Regale King Baggott and Leah Baird come again today to the Regale theater 210-212 East Washington street, in an exceptionally interesting Imp two-reel drama. "The Flaming This is a photo-play having to do with the knavery and the scheming in high political circles of the United States government of a foreign spy's effort to secure the formula for a new and wonderful explosive and his defeat through the cunning -of a dead inventor. The Play is rife with suspense: the action is swift and sure, culminating in a smashing climax. This play is by a man who knows every avenue of the government sen-ice.

He has put his knowledge into this play, "The Heart of Carlta" an Eclair Mexican drama, should jjlease ery patron of the Regale. "The Chicken a Joker comedy, featuring Max Asher, will be a pleasant rounding out of an already satisfactory program.
