FAIR WARNING.

And now, they say, they going to prohibit pink lemonade. The bacteriologists, or whoever it is that are always discovering that something par ticularly hearts is deadly and dangerous, the bacteriologsts say that it has germs than Heintz has pickles. So it must go Well, all right. But by the great Central Pole of the universe want you scientific ginks, right here and now don't go snoopng around and discovering that it is unsanitary to feed peanuts to the elephant. For if you do and you try to have any laws passed prohibiting that pinnacle of pastime, the great American public will rise up it's hind legs and hurl the whole horde of you, with hideous ruin and combustion down to bottomess perdition.
The copper era and Morenci leader., 1915-06-18
A NATIONAL CREED.

The Chicago Herald suggests the following National Creed by which the men, women and child ren of America may affirm their Americanism:
 -I believe in the United States, and indivisi- ble; in her mission the champion. of humanity the friend of the weak and distressed in the singessness, dignity and inviolability of American citizenship; in the validity of national traditions; in with honor; in friendship with all nations that respect rights; in entangling alliances with none in reasonable preparations national defense by and by land; in shirking sacrifice needed to hand down the future the priceless treasures bequeathed to us by the past; in the necessity of keeping the western hemisphere free from the in trusions of European institutions ambitions; the capacity of free for selfgovernment; in the love of home and country; and in the unfinch- ing resolution that government of the people; for the people by the people shall not perish from the earth. =
The copper era and Morenci leader., 1915-06-18

General Villas reply (made for him., of course, he cannot read write except slowly and labor ously and after the simplest manner) to President
 Wilson harks back to the Presidents speech at h. dianapos and it's statement to this countrys at titude toward Mexico. .Es But much water has by the mill since that speech and these times in which events swiftly. The latest attitude of the President and of the United States is embodied in the Presidents note to the Mexican chieftains, and they would do well to it attentatively and upon leave their studies of ancient history until convenient season.
