 The law prescribes certain excep- tion to these limitations. They are not applicable to railroad eating houses located upon railroad rights of way, and operated by or under control of any railroad company, or to telegraph or telephone offices or ex- changes under certain conditions, or to female nurses. Judge Shute of the superior court of Gila county sus- tained the demurrer of the hotel company on the ground that the law vas unconstitutional, stating that the
 defendant was not given equal pro- tection under the law with railroad restaurants or other establishments. Since the rendition of the judgment the law has been largely disregarded throughout the state.
 The decision of the supreme court orders that the demurrer of the hotel company be overruled. and that the court proceed to try the case accord ing to law.

 Former Deputy of Tripoli and Shiek Most Able Military Lieutenant.

CONSTANTIOPLE, Sept. 19. - Aside from the more important the aters of warfare. interest has been aroused here in reported uprising of the Senussi. the Arabic order of the Mohammedans in Northern Afri- ca, with the hope of establishing an independent state in the Italian pro- vince of Tripoli
 It is a little over fifty years ago that the man who was better known as the Sheik- -Senussi went into the hinterland of Tripoli to promote a schismatic Mohammedanism of which he himself was the author. The re- hgious circles at Mecca and Medina. to whom the reformer in question had stated his views on the Moslem religion. had not taken kindly to them. Senussi was an Arab to the core. and as such resented the as- cendancy of the Turks in the tenn poral affairs of a faith of which an Arab, Mohammed. was the prophet.
 In the hinterland of Tripoli, Senus- si encountered conditions that were favorable to the spread of a religious reform movement. The Arabs Ser bers and negroes of the arid stretch es in what was then still a Turkish satrapy, gathered about Senussi- and listened to whatever new truths he had to announce. In a very little time Senussi had become Sheik- Senussi. and Menzul- -ul- -Keir his capital over the main entrance Of the Senussi tempt in that city. SheilI Senussi caused the following words to be painted:
 Turks and Christians; will destroy them both in a single day. That legend is said to be still vis- ible. and 1t is certain that it's spirit is still a force among the Senussi- the term identifying fully eighty per cent of all Mohammedans in Tripoli. Tunis, Algeria. Eastern Morocco. and lief the word Senussi is not q tribal name. but the designation of sort of secret order With the death of the first Sheik Senussi, his reform lost much of it's militancy The founder of the cult, if such it may be termed. never aspired to temporal power, but his successor. the present Sheik Senussi proved to be more of a politician. some even say states man, than q religious leader with the result that Senussism became a political, rather than spiritual force.

LONDON. Sept. 19.-The Germans have occupied Wilma and by a wide sweeping movement to the north of that city have succeeded in almost en- tirely surrounding that portion of the Russian army which is fighting in the railway triangle between Wilma, Lida and Vileika At any rate the Russian forces in this district either must fight their way out to the eastward or retire in q southeasterly direction for the only railway left entirely in their hands is that from Wilma to Lfda and thence to Baranovitchi.
 The army of General von Hindenburg which took Wilma. has reached Nileika to the east of Wilma and is working in close cooperation with that of Arch duke Leopold of Bavaria in an effort to catch part of the Russian army an op- eration so often tried without success since the Teutons commenced their drive in Western Galicia early in May.
 At the southern end of the line Gen eral Ivanoff is still keeping General von Mackensen at arms length from the Fortress Kovno, the key to the route to Kiev, and in counter attacks has re- taken q number of villages both in Volhynia and Galicia. Both the Ger mans and French claim minor victories on the front. but neither there, in the Italian theater nor in the Dardanelles have any events of great moment been reported. The political situation in the Balkans is still perplexing and uncer- tain.

 |SkEY NOTE IF FARMERS RALLY
Record Crowd Listens to Speeches on Getting Pro ducers and Business To- gether at Glendale; Farm CTS Union.
Especial to The Republican,

Especial to The Republican, GLENDALE, Sept. 19-Cooperation and closer and more perfect or ganization of the producers and business and capital were the fore most topics of discussion at the big annual rally of the Glendale branch of the Farmers Educational and Co., Operative Union of America, held here last night.
 When President Green rapped for order practically every seat in Ireland hall was occupied, and yet the far mers came in punches until it be- came necessary to provide a larger seating capacity than has heretofore been known at such meetings, indi- eating that the producers are awak ing to the realization that they must get together and stick together if they hope to win for themselves the high position in the world affairs to which they are entitled by virtue of the fact that they are the actual producers of the eountry's wealth.
 Enthusiasm was at a higa pitch from the opening remarks of the president to the last dish of ice rceam which was served at the close; and when MT. Green men toned "Cannery for Glendale" and asked the farmers what they thought of the proposition, the response was prompt and hearty.
 John Schlolos led the discussion in favor of such an enterprise and he was followed by Mrs. Pulsifer, Messrs Gilbert, Radcliffe, Thompson, List, and a number of others.
 Later Dwight B. Heard arrived from Phoenix and addressed the meeting upon the question of CO., operation not only in marketing but in producing a product of standard quality and in grading the products scientifically. Mir Heard stated that he left Arizona this summer for a fishing trip in California but that when he reached the valleys of that state he became so engrossed in what was being accomplished in that state all the way from the Imperial valley to that of the San Joaquin, the only fishing he did was for in- formation. Farming, he stated, has now become a scientific business requiring the same scientific busi- ness principles as that of any com mercial enterprise. and the only way by which this may be accomplished is through system of perfect or ganizatiOn, such as exists today in the orange belt, the raisin district California.

RECOGNITION

Unless Military Situation in Mexico Changes Materi- ally in the Next Three Weeks CarranZa Practi- callv Certain to Win.
IAssoc1ArEn nREss p1sPArcHl

WASHINGTON. Sept. l9.-Prospects for the recognition of the Carranz.l government it is admitted in official quarters are much more favorable than they have been at any time since the United States began to exert an influence toward the establishment of central government in Mexico. The decision of the Pan-American confer ence to study within the next three weeks the material and moral ca pacity" of the elements aspiring to recognition led to the general belief that unless the military situation in Mexico is much changed in that period that the recognition of CarranZa is practically certain. The United States and Latin American governments in tend, however, to investigate Mexican affairs carefully before taking action.
 An appeal from Americans in Mexi- co City urging the American Red Cross not to discontinue the relief work there. was made public by Mabel Boardman. chairman of the Red Cross National relief board. Since the petition was drafted the Red Cross has replenished the exhausted fund for Mexican relief and Charles O'Connor. in charge of the headquarters in Mex icO City, was notified that all reason able demands can be met for the next thirty days at least.

Dr. Dumba's letter was received by the state department yesterday and was the subject of a conference with the president and Acting Secretary Polk. No announcement was made at that time and officials had no idea that the ambassador intended to make his communication public as he did last night in New York. The official view is that Dr. Dumba only partially stated the case and did not mention his part in the letter carried by Archibald sug- gesting an attempt to disorganize mu- milton factories.
