ARMS DIFFICULTY
 MAY NOW BE SOLVED
Capt. Jack Greenaway Suggests Way Out of Difficulty in Getting | @t U. s. Rifles

Just before Governor Hunt went to his dinner last evening, it looked as if the controversy between the war de- partment and N the state government relative to means whereby the state can avail itself of the use of the Krag Jergensen rifles now at Fort Huachuca seemed to be about settled by an agree ment that the guns should be sent to Bisbee. and Douglas under detail of regular troops for use in case of emer- gency. This way out of the situation WAS suggested by Captain Jack Green away, manager of the c. &, A. opera tions and a former member of the Rough Rider regiment.
 Earlier in the day a message had come from Secretary of War Garrison that indicated the secretary was in chped to yield to the request of Ari- z6na providing some method could be devised whereby the rifles will not fall into the hands of irresponsible parties Congressman Hayden and Senator Ashurst had both been in conference with the secretary relative to the sit uation, and it is thought they had sue ceeded in having him change his mind relative to the use of the rifles only in case of Indian raid. as he expressed it in his former telegram.
 The situation therefore clear up in Cochise county a great deal and when this information reaches Sheriff Harry Wheeler of that county, it will allay his fears, as expressed in a message t. Governor Hunt yesterday.
 The sheriff made a trip of inspection all over the county and summed up the situation that Douglas and Bisbee needed no more attention but that Gleason Junction. Pirtleville, Courtland, Pearce, which have large Mexican pop ulations are source of apprehension owing to the coming of the Cino de Mayo celebrations. The sheriff asked for either 100 militia men or 100 rifles with which to arm citizens. With this number he feels that he will be able to furnish ample protection to the citi- zens.

He said the federal officer. with street mob. ordered the Amer ican flag over the consulate to be lowered immediately or he would shoot it down. Other federals tore down all the American flags and stood on them.
 Consul Hanna's telegram follows:
 "On the twenty-first of April, federal military officer by the name of Alvarez del Castillo, evidently in structed by the federal military com- mander to tear down all American flags, arrived at this consulate gener- al with a street mob which he had gathered. about o'clock in the after noon. He pounded on the door and demanded that the American flag over this consulate be immediately Ivy eored rohe would shoot it down. The other federals proceeded to tear down all American flags, stamping on them and making speeches throughout the city of Monterey, burning some flags, tearing them up and leaving them piled in the middle of the streets
 ''It was the most insulting act that l I or any of the people of Monterey | ever witnessed. They placed a police guard in front of this consulate and all inmates in this building were l considered as prisoners.

chest to percolate. We wish that he could be marooned and have his rusty larynX tuned. But no one ever puts him wise. We know that through his half closed eyes he sees the pictures far away, of hours when love and laughter touched his song and made his voice both sweet and strong. And through the melody there blends the choruses of far-off friends; or, maybe just one voice he hears, whose sweetness fingers through the years. His song is like the withered rose in which faint fra grances repose, fond memories of the past to bring. And so we smile and let him sing.

GRAY |S NAMED
 AS INSPECTOR
Popular Young Architect and Contractor Appoint ed by the City Manager to Succeed Howard B. Claflin

Announcement will be made today by Manager w. A. Parish of the ap pointment of Roy A. Gray to succeed Howard B. Claflin as city building inspector. This will come as a sur prise, for it had been expected that the application of Claflin for contin- uance in the office would be consid cred.
 The new building inspector is one of the best known of the younger ar chitects and contractors. He was as sociated with George H. Gallagher, who died about one year ago, the firm name being Gallagher & Gray He has given every evidence of par ticular ability in the construction line as well as in architecture.
 Under the regime of Claflin, the of flee of building inspector has meant something more than the collection of a few fees. He has watched care fully to see that building ordinances were carried out to the letter and has recommended several important ordi- nances which are now in effect and which have to do with the general public safety. He has been fearless in condemning unsafe property and in rejecting applications for permits to construct buildings that seemed not to comply with building regula- tions.
 He will probably re- engage in the business of architect, which profess sion he followed before being ap- pointed to the city position. His most recent work for the city was the drafting of the plans for the new fire stations as well as for he re- modelling of the central station. The outlying stations are now under course of construction after his plans

"H. M. s. P|NAFORE"
 OPENS HERE TONIGHT

III M. S. Pinafore" the most popu operas will be the vehicle at the Elm press for this week of the Boston Ideal company, with which the company will make many more friends than they al ready have. The city of Phoenix is becoming to appreciate the work of this sterling organization otherwise the crowds that nightly attend the per
 formances would not be increasing as they are. From the way the revival of Pinafore in New York is taking that city by storm it can be safely pre- dicted that Phoenix will share in the delights occasioned by the reappear- ance of jolly old Sir Joseph Porter K. c. B."
 For the past week the Boston Ideals,
 who have played the parts many times
 before, have been polishing up the
 handles just as bright as can be" in
 order that the most perfect perform
 ance possible will be given. The chorus
 and solos in the piece taken with the
 brilliant dialogue form one of the
 bright pages in the history of the opera
 in English
 Pinafore is too well known to need formal introduction to Phoenix theater
 goers. The piece has been seen before but it is one of those attractions which are like great pictures, they improve With acquaintance. Under the able di- rection of Director Hazelrigg the work has progressed exceptionally well, and it is safe to say that a great deal of pleasure will be derived by local thea ter fans with the rendition of the opera. The caste has been selected with great care The following tells the story:

The two reel Kay-Bee feature, "The Raiders" is enthusiastically recom- mended as a sure enough winner. The whole production is marked by strong types and convincing acting.

Punched q Pole Cat Raiser

w. F. Johnston, deputy game war;
den, took little flyer down to Ap-
pleton City the other day to investi-
gate a complaint from that quarter.
The net result Of his trip was the
arrest of one Frank Lee, thrifty
farmer one mile from that town, on
charge of harboring and breeding
skunks without a permit from the
state game warden's office. Lee en-
tered plea Of guilty and will pay a
$25 fine.
Mr.. johnson found that Lee has 72
head of skunks in a corral on his
farm. He brought them from trap
pers who caught them during the
open season all right, but Lees Of
tense is that he failed to obtain q per-
NIT from the state game warden to
keep and propagate fur bearing ami
mails. ~
Lee is a prosperous farmer and
was busy threshing 5000 bushels Of
wheat when Johnston arrived there.
He went into the skunk businesssole-

ton of teachers. These considera-
tons are character and fitness for
their departments. Every member
of our faculty is normal or college
trained and is specialist in his line
of work.
The Butler High School accepts
rural certificates and admits the hold
err to the Freshman class without con-
dition. Those not having the certifi-
cate and wishing to enter the High
School, must pass an examination on
the eighth grade work.
Hereafter sixteen units will be re-
quired for graduation. A unit is rec
itation work in given subject for
five As minute periods a week
throughout the school year.
The Butler High School offers three
courses, the Language course, the
Commercial course, and the Teacher
Training course. The Language
course is especially designed to fit for
college; the Commercial course will
prepare one for business career;
the Teacher Training course prepares
for teaching in the rural schools or in
the. grades Of a city school.
For some years it has been the GUS
tom Of the rural schools to attempt to
do ninth grade work. October 81,
1911 the Bates county teachers pass
ed unanimously a resolution con-
demning this custom. Recently the
state superintendent sent me the fol-
lowing statement: Certificates will
not be issued to students who are
given high school credit for work
completed in rural schools" hope
that those who contemplate doing
ninth grade work will enroll with us.
Those who contemplate completing
the Teachers-Training course must
do all of the work in the high school.

Butler Public Schools.

The Butler public schools will open
Monday, September T. While the
enrolment promises to be large, we
need about fifty more boys and girls.
The State needs educated men and
women: We have done our part by
building an excellent high school
building and providing an excellent
faculty. Will you do yours by taking
advantage of what we have to offer?
= hope that every boy and girl who
has not high school within their
own district will enter the Butler
High School. Butler is essentially a
school town, and the influences
emanating from this town are uplift-
ing and refining. The student from
the day of his arrival lives in a re-
fined academic atmosphere and every
influence conduces to the very best
in student life and character develop
ment.
Our High School building is one of
the best in the state. 1t is practical
]y fireproof, ventilated by the fan
system, unilaterally lighted, provided
with single seats and has splendid
study hall where all not reciting can
prepare their lessons in quiet.
The library has been classified, thus
making it possible for students to
work intelligently. There are some
six hundred volumes and hundreds of
valuable pamphlets at the disposal Of
the student.
While we have good library and
a-good building, we admit these do
not make high school. While we
have an attractive plant, we have rec
ognized the necessity of securing a
strong faculty of high character and
purpose. The standards of our school
demand that we secure the best teach
ers available. Two primary consid-
erations have guided us in the selec-

Business is Improving.

Statements made in these columns
from time to time as to the essentia
soundness of American business con
ditions, notwithstanding the tempo
rary upsetting of international trade
and exchange by war, are strikingly
borne out by the statistics Of last
weeks business. This is from the
weekly review of business which ap.
peared in Saturdays Republic:
'The weeks wheat exports, &C.
cording to Bradstreet's figures, were
twice those Of the preceding week
and quite as large as those of the cor
responding week last year. ,.-
This is what the late Mark Twain
was wont to call "the petrified facts. !"
How different the reality is from the
visions of closed ports and rusting
steamers lying at silent wharfs, con-
jured up by the pessimist.
We observe from the weekly state
ment of the New York banks that
during the week the deficit below the
legal reserve was reduced by more
than S., $50, 600 that loans were in
creased more than $1,000, 600, indi-
eating confidence on the part Of the
bankers that deposits were practical
ly stationary; that specie increased
nearly So, 500, 600 and legal tenders
more than 81, 400, 600. This country
is going concern. This is time
for conservatism, but no time for
fear.
American energy and enterprise
will take care of the future. We see
no need, with Government war risk
insurance provided and foreign-built
ships admitted to American registry,
to resort to Government purchase of
vessels. The measure of justification
for emergency measures is the degree
of the emergency. When we are ex-
porting as much wheat as we did last
year it would appear that our export
business, although badly disorganized
with respect to many kinds Of trade
has not passed beyond cure by pri-
vate enterprise, without treading the
