The election of a lieutenant colonel for tho First Infantry, N. G. A., has been set for Thursday, November 14. Major George Hochderffer of Flagstaff is prominently mentioned for the office. Major Hochderffer is one of the oldest and best otllcers in the guard and he richly deserves the promotion. Tempo News. Geoige Hochderffer was chosen lieutenant-colonel of the First Regi ment, N. G. A., at an election held Thursday. Col. Hochdeiffer has since the inception of the guards taken a lively interest in the affairs of the militia, and his promotion from time to time Is pleasing to his many friends. Ho will be in command of the regiment during the absence of Col. Martin, who is now In tho cast. At a special election held in St. Johns on November 0 It was voted by 95 to 10 that the haloons must go. This is the first election held under the local option law passed by tho last legisla ture, and the passing of tho law was considered a joke, as it was thought no community in Arizona would adopt local option. The result of the local option in St. John9 will be watched with interest by other communities. Reports from the southeastern part of the county say that Apache Indians to the number of fifty are hunting deer and that many have been killed, re gal dless of the law. The Indian agents of this tribe are probably to blame for tho slaughter of deer in that vicinity. It Is only through the agent that the Indians can obtain permission to leave the reservation, and it is only through him that tho Indians can bo caughtand punished for tho violation of the game laws, and the local authorities should obtain tho assistance of the agents to punish the transgressors and thus pre vent future raids on tho game sections outside of the reservations.
