BURIED 25
 YEARS IS FOUND
Title to Homestead Confirmed at - Phoenix After Long Period

In the canning" department of the United States land office, many titles to perfectly good Arizona lands are preserved. The keeping qualities of such goods have never been ques- tioned, so, when Hon. Eugene Childs, of Mammoth, Pinal county, Arizona, sought information concerning the title to a bunch of land he held, he found it intact, and none the worse for it's having remained inthe preser- vative since 1890.
 Marshall Scott pre-empted a homestead duly and according to law, his filing having been made at the U. S. Land Office, Tucson, in 1886. Before patent was issued, he sold the tract, giving a quit claim deed.
 Since that time, the land has passed through six different owner ships, the instrument in each case being a quit claim deed. There had besn no occasion to verify the orig inal title to the tract, until MT. ChiIds recently placed the land on tie market in connection with quite an extensive real estate deal. The prospective purchasers desired utter safety in their title, so they de- handed the history of that import ant item.
 Register Weedin, thumbed over the dusty documents in the files and came upon the Marshall Scott pat ent, along with hundreds of other tributed. At the risk of having a flood of inquiries concerning these patents, the amiable colonel explain ed the entire story to Phoenix news getter.

day afternoon numbered nearly thou sand all of whom were trying to se- cure the necessary piece of paper in order to leave the camp Without a passport a traveller is taken back to the camp and made to secure it before he can proceed.
 One American, yesterday, who had been working for the Democrata Con- pany was refused a passport because he 1ad no one there to testify in his the camp. He offered to go and get the bosses at the mine to testify for hI1G but this was refused by an Amer ican named Kemp, who was with UT halejo when he came into Naco. He said the bosses may know you but we cont and you will have to get someone that knows us to identify you. Kemp, according to parties who left there Tuesday, was making himself very of- f1cious and disagreeable not only to the Mexicans but to all Americans as we'll.
 One party of women, wives of the officers of the company after they had started out and reached a point nearly two miles out, were sent back to Can area by his orders and compelled to have the Prefect go over everyone 1 of their passports and subject them to minute examination. Kemp said it was done upon the orders of Bel thram. Mexicans who wish to secure passports are turned down right and left and very few are receiving them at all
 A few days since two men, who were employed by the Kansas City Struc tural Iron Company, drew their time land tried to secure passports to leave TLey had a machine and were refusej ithe necessary passports. They decid led to take a chance and get away They reached point near the Ellia: ranch and they were stopped by z small band of soldiers who claimed tC

The Ameri jeans were asked for their passport: arl they told the soldiers that the! had lost them, the soldiers, told then that they would have to go back tC Cananea to secure others After goin. a short ways they were stopped b! the soldiers and robbed of some $45t and two six-shooters and then told tc leave. They started toward Nogale! and had gone some distance when an other contingent tried to hold them ul tut they decided to make a run for i and putting the machine at its bes succeeded in getting away but not un til after several bullets had pierced ltheir machine.

Forcing Mexicans to Enlist

The Mexican employees of the com panies are, being compelled, as much as possible, to enter the Villa army and are met with the threat that. un- less they do, they will be executed. Those who are in favor of Gales are getting out of the camp as rapidly as possible and making for the American side Of the line A number of the troops of Villa that have been around Cananea have deserted and thrown down their arms are also moving as rapidly as possible for the line. The assertions are said to be numerous arc many have passed through the hills east of Cananea, after deserting commands further south.
 Few Executed
 During the past few days, since the order to close down the mines and snelters was given and the men have been paid off, there has been but lit tle disorder. One or two have been killed on the streets but things, as a rule, have been very quiet. It is be- Ilieved that when the troops do re- turn the MeXicans who have not al ready signif1ed their intentions of join ing the Villa army will be executed At the rate they are leaving, however, the re will not be many left.
 The camp which the first part of the week contained several thousand will be practically deserted and only few left to look after the plants of the four mining companies. The total left in the camp will not amount to over a hundred, of which there will be about ten Americans. Fear is expressed that if the troops do get to footing that they will destroy the plants of the company for revenge on the Ameri- cans for having recognized Carranza. The only hope held out is that Villa will become discouraged at the de sertions and make himself safe by coming to this side of the line and let his soldiers go over to the Cananea side and take their chances, or that the endorsements of Hill will give Gales sufficient force to administer a stinging defeat to Villa that will cause him to go back to Chihuahua.

BISBEE, Oct 28.-The country be- tween the American line and Canan- ca is covered with fugitives from that camp, making their way to the bor- der as rapidly as possible and by every conceivable means of transpor- ! -tatien. The employees of the con- pany. with their wives and children, have been brought out by automo- Jbiles while others are coming by sxagon and many of the Mexicans have packed their belongings on bur ros and are plodding along behind them.
 The scene of their leaving is pitt ful one Every one is taking what val uables they can manage as they ex- rect to find nothing on their return.
 It has been given out that Villa and his followers will take everything.
 There are, at the present time in Cenanea but a few police officers. The forces of Col. Belthram, who was there, have been moved south. Many residences and small stores already entered by some of those who are con peIled to get out in order to secure sufficient food to carry them on theil journeys.
 The camp, this time. will be more fully deserted than at any time in th' history of the Mexican revolution. Int coming of Villa has aroused more fea than has ever been entertained be fore American and Mexican families that have always remained have nov ed out this time and it is expected b! tonight there will not be more thar five Americans left in the camp These are officers of the company.

 So great is the demand for pass ports to leave the city that it is al most impossible to secure them and the crowd around the city hall yester

The Grenada sentinel. [volume] (Grenada, Miss.) 1868-1955, 1915-09-03
SAYS ENGLAND ALWAYS A PIRATE.

in the New York Evening Journal of August IS there appears
d very interesting article over the signature of George ". OReilly
N which England is taken severely to task for her attitude in the
present war. He brings many indictments against England and al
leges that the dollar is the goal of her ambition and that she IS using
France and Russia in the present titanic struggle, Is she has always
used some other countries, to pull the chestnuts out of the fire, and
he asserts that when the wal is is over and the time comes for the
division of the spois, England will be there claiming a greater part
of the glory and with a lap to catch everything. Under the cloak of
higher civilization he claims that England has played the pirate
and that she is now plotting to rob this country, especially the cot
ton farmer, out of hundreds of millions Of dollars in cotton.
There is much OF truth in what Mr. ORenly says but the force
of his argument is greatly weakened when he asks, Have we a
President who is a British subject or an American Citizen The
cause that is Just needs no aspersions cast upon any man nor inter
rogatores that suggest a talsehood. President Wilson is true to the
highest and best interests OF his country. 1t is true he has not al
lowed the iingoes, many OF whom would never be within a thousand
miles of battle should war come to force him into hosilites nor has
he permitted any spirit OF subservency or molycoddesm to pre-
vent him from boldly and courageously standing for the rights OF
American citizens.
England's sins can not hide the fact that German mlitarisu
brought on this horrible war.
We are possessing our souls in patience and in due time the
cotton farmer, if he will display business sense, will come into his
own.
The Grenada sentinel. [volume] (Grenada, Miss.) 1868-1955, 1915-09-03
LITTLE WILLIE WARD AND SlSSON.

Little Willie Ward. whose home is in the town of Winona
Montgomery county, state OF Mississippi, is out in a card announc-
ing his intentions to run for a seat in the lower house of congress.
He takes occasion to make complaint against Hon. /. l. osson'
alleging that the latter gentleman had promised him to run for the
senate against John Sharp Williams and not for congress, and he
offers some mighty good proof to substantate what he states in this
particular. That is a matter for him and Sisson and we confess that
we m not one bit distressed that these two should be warning at
each other. We surmise that Sissons chef sin, just at this time, is,
that he did not openly espouse the candidacy of Bilbo, yet, as we
understood. he was quietly and dexterously lending his influence
10 that end.
Ward is a mighty patriot. He is a mar of vaor. He is chiefly not
ed for lending his name to the Blbo campaign. His sword was always
unsheathed for the Poplarvile man and the smoke of Bibos cleo
ton is hardly cleared away until he is out telling the people of this
congressional district that he wants them to send him to congress;
however, we suppose any other place with the same emoluments
would do just as we'll. Ward does not want Bilbo to forget him. no
he don't. Ward would be another one from Mississippi to antago-
nize our Democratic president if he should be elected.
The monumental presumptousness OF the whole affair IS that
Ward assumes that he and Sisson had a right to get together and
agree who should be elected to the lower house of congress and who
should 90 to the senate. There are at east a few others that expect
There will doubtless be Others in the race. but as between Ward
and Ssson give US Sisson ten times over. Little Willie will have to
grow some TO beat Upton.
The more Ssson and Ward and that whole crowd war with each
other the better for the state.
Seriously, are these two willy Winonaites not sailing

EVEN MORE BITTER TO VARDAMAN.

In 1910 there will be an election for United States Senator, to
select A successor to John Sharp Williams, when either he or some
one else will be chosen. For a while the impression prevailed that
Bilbo would be his principal opponent, but the news is now given
out by close friends of the Governor-elect that he will not oppose
Williams, preferrng to serve out his term as Governor, he having
intimated that that was his intention in a public address. Williams
term expires March 3, 1917, but the election to name his successor
vail take place the year before.
at is also given out and being handed around by close friends
OF Bibo that while he will not run against Williams that be is max,
ing no promises not to shy his caster in the ring and enter the race
against Vardaman for United States Senator in 1918. In fact, the
impression is growing that Bilbo will measure lances with Vardamar
Tor United States Senator, having similar ambition to that gentleman
to serve the people Of Mississippi both as Governor and Unitec
States Senator; but We will know more Of that in the future
The above from the Clarion-Ledger was reproduced in The
Vicksbutg Herald with the following comment:
"n his interview in tie Herald on Sunday morning last, Cover
nor-elect Bibo seemed interested in what The Herald editor 'woulc
do now. that he was elected. The bridge will be crossed wher
reached. But The words of the Clarion Ledger prompt US TO repea
on. remark when his election was assured: That bitter a pill as
was, this one crumb of comfort went with it-that to Vardaman
was even more bitter.
