JOY THE BENEFITS OF A CUT IN

That All Lines of Powder

WASHINGTON, Nov 1-Sportsmen

Outings amid forest, held and stream
and around "the green table" are
made less costly by new tariff pro-
visi-ns. Hunting and fishing Fits
for the sportsmen-and playing cards
for the sports will both probably be
sold cheaper at retail with present re-
duced import taxes. If the full tariff
reductions in the new law are chopped
off the price of foreign packs Of play
ing cards, they should sell for about
20 cents pack instead of rs and up
Cut in Rifles ana Guns.
More real economies in outfittings
are possible for the hunter and fisher
man, however. Present retail prices
of shotguns, rifles, automatic pistols
and revolvers that are impCrtetd
should be cut about Is per cent. if the
ultimate consumer is given the entire
benefit of tariff reductions. Imported
fishhooks, rods, reels, flies, artificial
bats, nets, seine and other tackle du-
ties are reduced as much in the new
law. The large home production of
takle, it is believed will prevent any
radical price slashing to the rank and
file of American fisherman However,
every little bit helps.
Hit the Powder Trust.
Striking at the powder trust" in
the new law, the democrats have
sought to make shooting cheaper. In
stead of a tax of to 4 cents a pound
on gunpowder in the former law, pow
der comes in free today. The demo-
Gratis estimate that 100000 pounds |
will be imported next year to the value
Of $2,500,000 The democrats believe,
although republican tariff makers de-
ny, that this situation will force down
retail prices of shells and cartridges
% the American manufacturer and to
some extent to the purchaser at sport

Hunting Knives Cheaper.
For the hunter, the new bill cuts

HABEAS CORPUS ACT

Two hundred and thirty-four years
ago this month the English Parlia-
msnt passed the famous Habeas
Corpus Act, thus crowning the Great
Charter which. 464 years before,
had been wrenched from King John
at Runnymede.
Magma Charta had for long
time been practically ignored by
those in authority" Time and
again the venerable document had
been fiouted by the Kings and their
henchmen, and the descendants of
the men who won the great victory
over the King at Runnymede were
treasted not as freemen but as slaves.
The business reached an alarming
stage under Charles the First, and
came to a climax in the reign of the
Merry Monarch" !" who came to the
throne after the fiasco of the second
Protectorate. The despotic and un-
scrupulous Clarendon brought things
to the pass where the representa-
tives of the people were obliged to
act, and the result was the immortal
bill which forever put an end to all
trifling with the liberties of English
men.
Despite the provisions of Magma
Charta to the contrary, Clarendon
threw men into prison right and
left, and kept them as long as he
liked; but by the Habeas Corpus
Act of 1879 the old practice of the
law was freed from the difficulties
and exceptions.
Every prisoner committed to Jail
was declared entitled to his writ,
even in the vacation of the courts.
and heavy penalties were enforced
on judges and jailers who refused
the prisoner his rights. The judge
who delayed granting the habeas
corpus forfeited five hundred pounds
to the party aggrieved, while viola
tion of the provision that no English
man should be carried beyond seas
for trial carried with it the same
heavy penalty. At last Magma
Charta was living reality, not a
mere theory. For four centuries
and a half Englishmen had endured
the violation of the sacred charter,
but at last the age,long evil was
over, and the personal freedom of
Englishmen was assured for a
time. By Rev. T. B. Gregary, in
Los Angeles Examiner.

ARIZONA'S HALL OF FAME

Eighteen oil paintings of former
Arizona governors were hung last
Saturday in the governors Office al
the capitol in Phoenix. Each paint.
ing cost $l00, the appropriation for
the paintings being made at the last
session of the state legislature.
The paintings are in attractive
dull gold frames, selected by the
Board of Control from samples or,
dered by the artist. William Vincent
Besser. The olG crayon portraits
of the governors are being removed
to the hail,
Besser also painted portraits Of
M. J. Cunitf. present speaker of the
senate; Sam Bradner. former speaker
of the house, and H. H. Linney,
present speaker of the house, the
appropriation for these three being
made at the same time as that for
the governors. The paintings of
Cun;tf, Bradner and Linney were
hung in the legislative chambers.
Besser, who is responsible for such
remarkable paintings, is Germat
by birth. While the last legislature
was in session he came here from
Kentucky, where he had just finished
Il contract for painting number of
B,ue Grass statesmen.
Besser is now en- route to South
Africa to spend a yearWi sitting rela-
tives. He will be back year from
December to fulfill a $4,000 con-
tract, made before sailing. with a
magazine.
The paintings hung Saturday do
not include Gov. Hunt. The present
executive paid for the painting of
his own photograph and also had
paintings made of his wife, mother
and daughter.

Dame Rrmor is queer old soul.
There is no telling when she will
start something and when she does,

end.
The latest effort of the old lady
in our vicinity was sent out by wire-

strangeness and the novel effect II

the telling
According to the old lady there Is

parts of Graham county and affix
same to adjoining counties. Now
wouldn't that thrall you? And it is

THE KANSAS DRoUTH

Every one has read of the won.

viable reputation of being able to

back with a bucket of dust. Alfal-
fa's tongue is hanging out and she
is alfalfying only about two aprons

Avoid sedatiye Cough Medicines,

If you want to contribute directly
to the occurrence of capillary bron-
chitis and pneumonia use cough
medicines that contain codine, NOR
phine, heroid and other sedatives
when you have a cough or cold.
An expectorant like Chamberlain s
Cough Remedy is what is needed.
That cleans out the culture beds or
breeding places for the germs of
pneumonia and other germ diseases.
That is why pneumonia never results
from a cold when Chamberlain S
Cough Remedy is used. 1t has a
world wide reputation for its cures.

is what Dame Rumor says:

| Is what Dame Rumor says:
AN effort will be made to cut
off from Graham county all that
part that lies east of the Big Ranch,
extending to a line drawn north OF
the right of way of the Arizona
Eastern r. R.. thence south to the
Cochise county line; thence east to
Greenlee county. From the Big
Ranch north to Gila river and fol
lowing that stream to Greenlee
county line, including therein vast
territory that would look good to
Greenlee county and be favorable
as an addition to their county"
Thus the word goes out and the
old lady is busy putting on the finish
ing touches.
Then, strange to say, the mood
of the old lady changed again and
she goes into a trance with the re-
suit that she discovers a plot on the
part of the people living in the
Klondyke section of the county to
cut off another integral part and
atfix it on to dear old Cochise. She
says the people over there are very
much discontented and declare thev
never get anything except tax bills
and that sometimes they are allowed
to vote, provided they are willing to
do so for a candidate from the val
ley.
Of course. in this respect the old
lady is wrong. the people of the
Klondyke section are too busy to
worry over such little things as no
representation and as far as tax bills
are concerned, they would have
them to pay any way.
Not satisfied with the commotion
that she has kicked up over the re-
suit of two frances, the old lady
goes into another and declares that
she has it direct from the spirit of
an old Indian that represents her in
the other world, that there is much
discomfort in the Fl. Thomas section
and that they are looking forward
to disintegrating and become a
part of Gila county
So you can see what terrible
old lady Dame Rumor is and once
she gets started there is no telling
when she will quit. She would lop
off the head, legs and arms of dear
old Graham, leaving only pulseless
mass to continue on its way as best
it can. And then well, it will be
just simply dreadful to be cut up.
in this way and what a wabbly Old
mass we will be. No head, no legs,
no arms. What "a frightful old
lady Dame Rumor is.

PROFESSOR WILSON
Makes an Announcement in
Regard to the Cattle
Department

Professor F. w. Wilson, who is in
charge Of the Cattle Department at
the Arizona State Fair announces
that through an oversight classes
for non-registered cattle were omit
ted.
He wishes to announce that the
same classes and the same premiums
as was given in 1912 will be given
this year.
The outlook is for a great cattle
exhibit in the registered classes,
Perhaps no state in the Union has
any finer Herefords, Holsteins, Jer.
seys, Brown.Swiss, Dutch Belted,
Durham, Red Polls and other stan
dard breds of cattle than Arizona.
Arizona cattle have been winning
in the past and every fair where
they have exhibited this year.
No where in the country will
there be finer cattle exhibit than
at the Arizona State Fair 1918.

OCTOBER 81. 1913
PROBLEM IS SOLVED

For the past ten years the con-
tinued uprising of waters on land
lying south Of the Gila river and ex-
tending from the river road at SAT-
ford to below Pima. has been con-
sidered as direful menace and has
caused considerable worry to the
owners. The formation of the val
ley. which many years ago was a
vast sea. came from the erosion of
the mountains. The old sea bed
was gradually filed up till in our
time good depth of soil has sur
vived. The constant irrigation of
the lands has produced the effect
which comes in all irrigated sections:
the waters sink and rise again in
the lower parts. and. on coming to
the surface. bring the alkalis that
are injurious to plant life.
In several Instances the condi-
tions were so bad that no crops of
alfalfa or grain could be raised and
the lands were abandoned. These
conditions were gradually growing
worse and it looked as if much land
that heretofore had been held good
for raising all kinds of crops would
be so badly damaged that they
could never again be brought into
cultivation.
In the Pima section the land. es-
pecially around the school house,
was becoming swampy and the mat
ter of devising some method of
drainage became paramount.
A meeting of the owners of the
bad lands led to an organization
which resulted in bringing Mr.. Sid
ney w. Cooper, of the corps of
drainage engineers. Of the Depart
ment of Agriculture, to the valley
to make an examination of the lands
and determine the best method of
drainage.
AS result drainage system has
been started at Pima, starting at
the school house grounds and emp
tying into an open ditch running
into the Gila river.
At the school house grounds $50
feet have been completed and when
the balance of the system is finished,
the drainage ditch will be 5000 feet
in length. This drainage ditch,
which is dug at varying depths of
63 and 5 feet. containing a wooden
box, made from | by 10 lumber.
The box is open on the bottom. be-
ing held together with pieces of /
by 6 every four feet.
The rising waters enter the wood
en- drain box and flow into the open
ditch and in a short time the waters
will be lowered on the school house
grounds and its swampy condition
will be a thing of the past.
The system of drainage devised
by Mr. Cooper will be used on all
the lands from Stafford to Pima and
will effectually solve the problem of
draining the rising waters and the
attending alkalis and renew the land
TO its former richness.
