The Slaughter of Calves.

The slaughter of young calves is on
OF the serious phases of the problem O
the maintenance of our country's bee
supply. Statistics indicate that th
slaughter of such animals is increasin,
rapidly, due primarily to an increase il
the demand for veal, in spite of the fac
that veal is ordinarily sold at an ex
tremely high price per pound.
These veal calves are largely drawr
from the dairy districts, but, with tht
growth in the demand for veal, othel
sections are marketing as veal in con
siderable numbers calves that, if KEEP,
and fattened, would have made good
beef steers. The market for stockers
and feeders is therefore affected.
Various suggestions have been made
to prevent this, even such radical ones
as legislation to prohibit entirely the
slaughter of calves. The fact is not al
ways recognized, however, that this
practice is purely economic. In dairy
districts, milk production is the chief
business and calves are an incident.
valuable only to replenish the milking
stock or for such revenue as may be OBJ
tanned from their sale as veal. AS the
average dairyman must keep the num-
ber of his mixers at maximum,
economy demands that he relieve him
self OF his surplus calves as soon as pos
sible. AS there is not ordinarily any
market for such calves except for veal,
veal they become. The slaughter of
calves in districts which are not exclu-
sively devoted to dairying probably has
as its governing factor a market near
by which pays more for calves as veal
than as stockers.
A comparison of English and Amer
lean methods in this respect sheds some
light on this problem. In England men
make business of buying young calves
throughout the dairy districts to be
raised on milk substitutes and subse-
qnently fattened for beef. In England |
the dairy COWS are largely Shorthorns
whose calves are valuable for beef pro-
duction. In the United States, on tue
other hand, the COWS Of the dairy dis
'ricts are principally Of the strictly
1airy breeds (pure breds OF grades Or
natives with no breeding, and the calves

Safety First.

By T. F. Peck, Commissioners of Agriculture
1t may be worth while, at this time,
to remind all of the people who have to
do with the training of the next gener-
alton that the slogan, Safety First, "
stands for something that has place
in our work. 1t particularly concerns
the welfare of that next generation.
A few years ago no special caution
was necessary for people to take care of
themselves. 1t was only necessary to
come in when it rained, to look out for
Indians or wild beasts behind the bush
es, and other things like that. Now
there are thousand perils, in every di-
rection. We have machines, SO many
swift moving vehicles, such high speeds,
such new and unknown devices every
where, surrounded by such multitudes
of people, that some special instruction
is necessary to the safety of the people.
Our whole State is largely covered
with electric wires. Telegraph, tele-
phone, power, light lines run every
where, even in the most remote rural
sections and all are dangerous to the ig-
and the incautious. A broken
wire may carry death to him who
it may fall in a pool of water
and bring destruction to those who step
in the water; it may fall on barbed
and kill the one who climbs fence a
mile away. Accidents happen when
children throw wires over the telegraph
line or climb the poles for fun.
The regular railway lines, with heavy
rains laundering along at high speed
every hour of the day and night, are

Fine Live Stock.

There was recently held at Winchester,
Tenn, sale of registered Holsten cat
tie under the auspices Of the Franklin
County Creamery Association at which
two car loads of fine breeding animals
were disposed OF, the highest price paid
being $310. There were forty. five fine
animals placed ia the section lying be-
tween Nashville, Sparta and Lewisburg
as result Of this sale.
In this work Of promoting the live
stock industry in this territory, and
along the territory embraced by its en-
tire system, the Nashville, Chattanooga
& st. Louis Railway is lending its hearty
cooperation through its live stock and
agricultural department, and as result
OF its work in this direction more than
1000 head of pure-bred animals have
been placed in counties where, prior to
such sales, practically no such animals
were W U0 lOuuu.
The widespread nterestcreated among
the various county live stock associa-
tions, breeders and farmers, have caused
several big breeders to cooperate in
these sales and next spring several such
sales will be held at various points and
such organizations as the Holstein-
Freisian Association of America, the
American Hereford Cattle Breeders AS
sociation, the American Short Horn
Breeders Association and the American
Aberdeen Angus Association viii con-
tribute. The railroad offers reduced
freight charges on such cattle and re-
duced rates to the farmers and cattle
men attending these sales, and as re-
suit the live stock interests have been
greatly stimulated.

an act to protect citizens against non-citizens He added that it wassin conflict with the personal guaranty of liberty accorded to aliens by the constitution. The law, he said, would exclude aliens from Arizona, as aliens could not live where they could not work, and the result would be that although the United Sates had the power of admitting aliens to the country, the sates could keep them out by such legislation as the Arizona la~.
 He said it was no answer to say that some aliens could be employed because if the state had the power to fix the percentage to be permitted to be employed, it could regulate that percentage without restriction.
 No just reason of public safety, he said. had been advanced to justify the law
 Tt is sought to justify this act as the exercise of the power Of the state to make reasonable classifica- tions in legislating to promote the health, safety, morals and welfare of those within it's jurisdiction" said Justice Hughes.

RECALL ACTION BY MESA CLUB |S
 RESCINDED
Organization Decides 1t Has No Right to Put Its Fingers in Political Puddle.

MESA, Oct. 20.-The Mesa Com mercial club last night rescinded the action of the club on Tuesday night in adopting a resolution favoring the recall of Governor Hunt, after a lengthy and heated debate. The resembling motion was introduced by County Supervisor W. K. Bowen in the following language: T move that the action taken on Tuesday night in favor of the recall of Gov ernor Hunt through resolution read, as a commercial body, be re- scinded"
 The offer of the motion was fol- lowed by a debate in which the mover, Attorney M. J. Dougherty, Senator Stapley, Dr. J. B. Nelson and others took part.
 The proponents of the motion did not touch upon the merits of the movement for the recall of the gov ernor No defense of him was made but it was contended that the reso- IlbIIOu u 1utSudy ulSuI Wdo III NlO- lation of the bylaws of the club
 which forbid action on political or partisan questions.
 The opponents of the motion took the ground that the proposed action againts the governor was for the bet terment of Mesa as well as for the whole State and it was for such ob- jects that the club had been organ Iized. They said that such a con- struction of the bylaws as had been offered in support of MT. Bowen's motion would debar the club from
 participation in practically all public affairs. It was recalled that the club had endorsed MT. Bowen for Appointment to the board of super visors and that then the club had violated it's bylaws if it had done so by its action last Tuesday night.
 The motion was carried by rising vote, fourteen members, in the af- firmative, and it was declared car ried, though by a narrow margin.
 The attendance was about as large las that of last Tuesday night. The personnel was only slightly different.

D. C., Nov. Upon complaint, the supreme court annulled as unconstitutional the Arizona anti alien labor law enacted into law about a year ago by vote of the peo- pie under the initiative process of legislation.
 The statute required employers of more than five persons to employ not less than so per cent qualified cleo tors or citizens. Mike Raich, an Aus trian cook, upon being notified he would be discharged because of the law w,appealed to the courts, and when he won the state took the case to the highest tribunal.
 The supreme court, through Justice Hughes, Justice McReynolds alone dissenting held that Raich's consti- tutional rights as an alien to equal protection under the law as guaran- teed by the fourteenth amendment to tine constitution were violated by the law, hence decided that he was en- titled to an injunction to prevent state officials from enforcing the act.
 Treaties Involved.
 The court announced that as re. suit Of the decision it was necessary tc consider rights under treaties pre- sented by the case. Because of the similarity of the enactment to anti Japanese legislation, the case has at tracted widespread attention ever since instituted in the federal district court of Arizona, which also held the law to be unconstitutional
 It was presented to the court along with the New York alien labor law, fortidding the employment of aliens on public works. The court today however, expressly distinguished cases Of private enterprise from those arising from the expenditures of pub, lie moneys.

Addresses Meetings at Clifton and Morenci-Monotony of Strike Situ- ation Broken by Few Minor Occur rences.

That the striking miners in the Clitton-M n-Morenci-Metcalf district are preparing for a long siege and are de- termined to see the thing through to a finish is manifested by the increas- ed activity along the line of future preparedness. Outside organiza- tions are materially helping along financial lines and more substantial Eelp is being sent in to the strike dis trict day by day so that there is no apparent indication that the thous- ands of idle workmen will soon feel the pinch of hunger or want for the nee cessities of life. The men are re- fecting the attitude of the mine man. agers in that they are settling down to period of watchful waiting.
 Guy B. Miller, member of the exc. cutive board of the Western Feder- ation of Miners and the man who was instrumental in bringing about the or ganization of the Clifton-Morenci mine workers, arrived in Clifton Mon day evening and his presence has seemed to inspire renewed confidence in the men and filled them with further determination to stand up for what they deem right and just MI. Miller was accompanied by O. H. Tanner, secretary of the Globe Miners union, who comes to the district for personal investigation of the situa- tion here and making a report of the same to the Globe union. Mil Ter was met at the depot by a dele gation of the striking men and was accorded a warm welcome, his ar rival having dissipated the idea that the Western Federation had with drawn their support in the present crisis.
 - On Thursday afternoon MT. Miller addressed a large meeting at Mo renci which seemed to put new life into the men and fill them with en- thusiasm for their cause A big parade was also held at Morenci pre- ceeding the speech in which several hundred men took part. Everything was quiet and orderly during the Morenci demonstration.
 A mass meeting was held on the plaza in Clifton yesterday at five O. clock which was addressed by John II. Walker, president of the Illinois State Federation of Labor, who ar rived in Clifton by automobile. The meeting was attended by about two thousand people and the speaker was introduced by Mr. Miller, who pre- faced his introduction with a few re- marks in regard to the good work done in the east by MT. Walker in the interest of organized labor. MT. Walker dwelt principally on organiza- tion and urged the men to affiliate with organized labor and to fight to the last for their cause, resorting to no violence where it could be avoid ed. He made numerous illustrations comparing the situation here with similar conditions in the coal mines of Illinois, showing how the miners had bettered their conditions by close organization and also assured them that he would try to help them finan- cially through his organization.
