The mine has laid idle for a num- ably being lawsuits. The town of Casa Grande itself used to be an important and busy place, not only for the mines south of it, but also because it was the nearest station to Florence, the county seat, and also to the wonderful Silver King mine, 50 miles to the north. At present the town seems to be on the upward grade. But there is one thing in connection with it that's very pug zling and still remains so, for it couldn't be solved by any of the citizens inquired from On the south side of the track is a rickety old board shanty, with an equally rickety screen porch. From appearances it would be difficult to determine whether it was erected by early In dians or the prehistoric Aztec. race It has a screen door and on the top frame is strip of tin with Mines and Mining painted on it and on the middle frame a similar strip. of tin with the following words painted on it: Tie the bull outside" No one could give any explanation as to it's meaning. The last person inquired from was Sen ator Brown, who is supposed to know everything regarding Casa Grapde, but even he was mystified and could afford no enlightenment Probably some of the residents of Casa Grande may go on a pilgrim mage to see this door, if this meets any of their eyes, and endeavor to solve the meaning of the mystic words.

IessAess In all American communities

ing utterances of Governor Charles s.
Whitman's inaugural address today ).
Increase Of crime. he said, deserved
the thoughtful attention Of the legis-
lature.
Disregard of law, Impotence with
legal and moral restraints, contempt
for the judicial and executive minis
tiers Of Justice are phenomena observ-
able in all American communities and
all classes" he added. mo material
prosperity, no Astounding wealth, no
progress in the sciences can save US
from moral decadence and ultimate
decay IL this spirit of lawlessness and
contempt for legal authority shall con-
tinue.
"The public opinion that tolerates
lawlessness whether 1t be the lyncaing
the negro, or the murder of the OBJ
scure, or the violence attending nearly
all the disputes between labor and cap
ital will inevitably engender fatal
malady unless the Quickened con-
science or the American people shall
call halt
There Is but one way OF meeting
the danger and that way Is through
the creation of a dominant and GER
vading public sentiment In support of
the en- iorcement OF the law. Where
that sentiment is wanting no devices
of the law can make up for 1t"
