colt since the Fourth of July, which
has resulted in the closing Of several
d%ramshopS and the enrichment of the
miners who stopped their patronage.
Prior to the big Fourth Of July cele-
bration at Prescott the saloon men OF
Jerome imported Il nan to lead their
hose team in IL contest against that of
that the fellow who was to do their
honOrS was Il nonunion man they de-
clared that if he We're allowed to lead
their team they would boycott all OF
the saloons and gambling houses in
Jerome, which they did.
Many saloons are preparing to move
to Prescott, and the miners have in
creased their bank accounts by 100000
since the boycott started.
The question arises, "If the miners OF
jerome can save $4,000 in Il single
month by not ~patronizing the saloons,
why would it not pay them to make
their boycott permanent?' Fifty thou
sand dollars Il month is 5000, 600 n year,
and If the saloons of Jerome are max.
ing such a sum from the miners every
year that startling fact ought to fur
nish them food for thought and argu
ments for abstinence.

places. These political deals are made
openly. The boss has become an institu-
