MOST OF COUNTY
 IS REGISTERED

Registration in this part of the coun- Icy has been smaller in the past few days than at any time since the first oi the month This was the state ment of several of the registering of ficers yesterday It is attributed to two or three direct influences and facts
 In the first place a large majority .ol those who are eligible for registry .are already on the books These have been gathered in in the past three weeks by system of working which the officers have carried on Many of Che women voters have already been placed on the rolls and there are few of the fair sex left who will vote who have not already been signed
 Again there is a class which always leaves registration to the last nom ent of the last day As there are but a few days left before registration. state the officials, they wish to call to the attention of all voters the fact that the time is approaching when they should have their names placed on the rolls
 It is desirable that Cochise county have the largest registration of the state is the opinion of the registra. tion officers The county already has a fair start toward the goal aimed, but if the remainder will comply with the request which the registration off hcers send out and make their regis ration an assured fact. the honors VIII Dc cLinchad lnr Lhia cnuntN-

 SEEKERS AT LAST
State and County Time Limit Expires and Final Filing Is
 Made in Tombstone by Large
 Number Candidates Yesterday

The state and county game season of candidates has closed and all boun ties on relts win be refused on the Presentation of petitions to the board of supervisors in the future Last evening at o'clock the final momenl for filing papers signifying intention of being a candidate for county or state election at the primary passed and the open season was no more However, before the lid was shut Oown, the supervisors had made generous selection of candidates and pelts embossed with nearly every name ir the county which they have filed away for reference in the dar1 archives of the county court house. The bounty season in Cochise was especially heavy. There are moro candidates in the field for election at the fall primaries than have ever before been entered in political race in this county. In measure this is due 10 the two parties of Bull Moose and Republicans which are putting separate and individual tick. cts in ihe field ID addition, the So- cialists have filed almost complete lists of candidates for county offices. and the Democratic lists are more than filled with aspiring politicians.

ent from what we have previously known in that they have a degree of mobility beyond expectati ons, through the use of motor vehicles for their transportation. The mounts have been modified as well so that the guns are available for quick use beyond possi bility before the present develop ment of the automobile was reached.
 Such mortars brought in by rail- ways and planted upon concrete ba- ses. mortars of very high power, were used by the Japanese in their action against Port Arthur. The largest guns the Germans are using measure AZ eentimeters, about IT Inches. The Japanese had a precisely similar piece except for the mountingss of 14-fnch ca1ibre. These guns were extremely effective at Port Arthur In connec- ton with the reduction of the Belgian fortresses by these great guns it is

we'll to remember that the ranges were known to the inch by the Germans, and that the forts, although they had l the reputation of being impregnab1e, were not so considered by military ex- perts.
 While all forms of artillery have re- ceived much prominent mention be- cause of greater effectiveness, and while machine guns also have been prominently mentioned as successful destructive agents, the effect of rifle fire has been disappointing
 Neither the French nor the Ger man armies contains a high percen- taxe of men trained to great individ- ual excellence with the rife When we hear of Bayonet charges being driven home in daylight we may well know that the line against which they were directed was not composed of
 men familiar with and expert in the use of the rifie
 The traditional ice-cream rabbit in the middle pit of the Inferno would have just as much chance of routing the forces of the Evil One as would held by men all of whom could really shoot the rifle.
 The great stream of artillery fire directed toward a trench must be turned off when it's own infantry line has advanced to within approximate . that point on it is question of rifles and machine guns on both sides. If the trenches contain men trained to the highest point of excelience in the. use of the rife, no enemy, even if ten times out-nunbering the defense, can ever make that 800 yards, though the ground be only half open to fire.
 The widespread but wholly erron- eous idea that an artil1e1-ynaan re- quires two or three times as much training as an infantryman is based upon most fallacious reasoning. Drill and discipline are only details of the. foot soldiers training. He must be taught to shoot and taught so that he
 will shoot instinctively The great weakness of the average military man when he considers soldier shooting is that he does not know what really good shooting is Ability to hit a target under conditions permitting thought and care is one thing, capac- ity to put your bullet where you want it to go SC per cent. of the time under high pressure, in the face of an en- erny or dangerous beast at short ran ges, is another
 Most of the rife shots which go, home in those battle lines now fight ing in Europe, leaving out the Brit ish army, are shots which hit by ac- cident If the men in the infantry lines were properly trained, the only shots which missed an enemy within 200 yards range would be those which missed through accident
 Until the man armed with the rifle has been trained to the point where he never misses within the battle range except through n1fschance; un- til he has been so instructed that he fires as unconsciousIy- and as accurate Iy as he points his finger, he is not fit to go into the battle line.
 Such a degree of skill is entirely practicable, but to attain to it as many years of training are necessary

possibly more in some cases than are required to make a drst-class artill- { feryman. Although greater nunbe CTS are taking part in this war than the world has previously seen engaged, yet under modern conditions, as found in civil life, naachinesy and expert qualifications should take the place Of mere numbers
 Men trained to the last ounce of their capacity in the use of rifles and machine guns are as unapproaehable by any number of other men that could be brought against them as We- suvius in full eruption. The ordinary battle line is about as dangerous in comparison as Painess fireworks.
 If you put into an infantry line men who had been trained for three years in the use of the rifle, who were dis cip1ined and who had all of the other men could hit what he shot at go per cent. of the time when it was within the last rush ranges, that is, from 800 yards down, you could no more drive home an attack in daylight than you could annihilate the enemy by blow ing your breath toward him.
 If there is one thing this war has taught more than another up to this time; if there is one fact which will receive further emphasis as the war goes on, it is this: That your light are of little more worth than so many puppets unless the men can shoot and shoot to hit This is a lesson which must be taken home by every nation which expects to be able, when com pelIed, to defend it's own life, to pre- serve peace, and to protect the weak CT nations.

STRANGERS TO
 THEIR RIFLES.
(Arms and the Man.)

One thing stands out very clearly from the background of information proving more effective than ever be- fore. This applies to all classes of ar tiIlery, field guns, those heavier but still mobile, and lastly and most sensatfonally, to the great mortars with which the Germans have sue cessfulIy reduced fortifcatfons hither- to held to be impregnab1e. The field artillery is faster, more accurate, and when used as now for the greater part to deliver indirect fire, less vuI- nerab1e than previously This in gem eral is true of all the mobile artillery.
 The large mortars are only differ
