Not the least of these details, it de.

excellent authority, have been told
that the maximum amount they can
get is $5OO,OO0,OO In reply, it is re-

bankers that they need more and that
more will be expected.
Commission Takes Lead.
Throughout the period of negotia'
tions until day or so ago, it was said
on good authority the commission had
dominated the situation, pointing out
to American financiers that the need
for the establishment of the loan was
greater to the United States than to
either Great Britain or france. Quite
a few bankers, it was said tonight,
have not shared this view.
Tonight it was said that there might
he an announcement within few
days. American bankers in sympathy
with the commissions view, said that
matters were progressing very salts
factorily and that there had been no
friction between the commission and
American financiers.

London, Sept. 23.-The strongly for
titled Russian city of Dvinsk on the
Dvina, ITO. miles southeast of Riga,
has become the new German objective
now that the Russian armies appar-
emily have escaped from the Wilma net
The German forces east and south
east of Ida are now making more
rapid progress, but their increased
speed at this time is expected to gain
them little in view of the fact that
the safe retreat of the greater part Of
the Russian forces now seems to be
assured.
The chief success of the Germans in
the last day or two has been along
the Dvina front, which bars the road
to Petrograd. Southwest of Dvinsk
the invaders captured Russian trench
es on a front of nearly two miles,
taking 1900 prisoners and eight ma
chine guns. Further down the river,
near Friedrichstadt the Russians have
gained minor success.
For. the time being the domestic sit
uat:on in Russia is quiescent. The
strike in protest at the propagation #
the duma has been suspended but
may be revived if the government per-
sists in it's opposition to the move
ment in favor of reasserbling parlia-
new cabinet.

Reinforcements for GaIIipoIi.
A new army of 10000 men has
been sent to the assistance of the AL.
lied forces at the l)ardanelles, accord
ing to the Over Seas News Agency.
This information was contained,
the News Agency says, in dispatch
from Athens. The reinforcement for
the French and the British forces are
said to have landed at Murdos, and
Lemnos Island, in the AEGEAN sea.

Editorial Opinion
A NATTER OF POPULATION.

Anxious as Arizona is to increase it's
population, few people besides Gov
ernor Hunt appear to be much eXer-
cised at the subtraction example of
five from 250,000, which is assigned
for May %, at the state prison. The
desire of the governor for Arizona to
make as good a showing as possible
at the next census is worthy, but
he could make his efforts more effec-
tive by ceasing to agitate himself
about the emigration of the five and
by devoting himself to a repentant
consideration of the economic causes
of immigration.
Capital punishment is not a para
mount issue in this state, in spite of
Hunts efforts to make it so, but Hunt
will continue to be the paramount
issue as long as he remains in office.
We have to make the most of the
talents we have. Hunts talent is
for sentimentality. Exploiting it
constantly tends to conceal his def
ciencies as an executive. A reason
able amount of propaganda in the
cause of anti-capital punishment
would have been entirely proper, but
Hunt is carrying it to the point of CO.
ercion. Tucson Citizen.

WHIP-CRACkING

Led by their zeal for what they be-
lieved to be a righteous cause, and
what is doubtless righteous cause,
some ladies fell into a gross error
yesterday; into a most. dangerous
violation of law intended to secure
just and honest Legislation. Because
a member of the legislature declined
to cast his vote for the cause they
represented, they told him rather
drama tically that he would be marked
for political death, meaning in classic
phrase that they would hang the in
jun sign on him.. If the legislator
had SO desired he could have develop
ed serious and unenviable situation
fer these ladies, for there are two in
fiuences against which the laws guard
legislators, intimidation and bribery,
and in lesser degree, against lobby
ing by less harmful and violent
methods Phoenix Republican

FEMININE STRATEGY

A, committee of suffra gettes at
Phoenix, representing themselves ap
parently, ran to the legislature the
ether day, and, wringing their hands
the members asked the legislature to
save tho necks of the condemned
murderers at Florence because anti
suffre gettes in the east were using
the approaching legal execution aus an
argument against comforting the right
of suffrage on women in the states of
New York and New Jersey.
The prime consideration of this
committee, it appears, was not
whether the felons lived or died, but
that the argument might not injure
the chances of their sisters in the east
to obtair. the ballot. The legislature
it is said, was not greatly impressed
with the logic of the committee, 50
the women spent a jolly half hour
with the governor, who was probably
the fellow-conspirator of the COM
mittee. -Bisbee Review.

A STITCH IN TIME.

The Era has more than once called the attention
Of the Mayor and the Town Council to the dangerous
condition Of the town bridge the Frisco
We informed that report is file with the
Council from competent engineer stating that the
bridge is unsafe IF such is the case the Co mel
should without further delay, take the necessary
steps which would insure against loss of life
property and at the time the Town from
costly damage suit. With the advent of numerous
automobiles in this section the town bridge is
quate to accommodate the increased traffic.

provement much to be desired. We opine that

favor such improvement which would be great
convenience to all concerned. stitch time will

OFFICIAL CRITICISM

The official acts of public official at all
liable criticism from the press but in MAX
ing this criticism the grounds for criticism Should
be clearly stated and the acts complained Of in the
interest of the public good, clearly set forth. The
allegations of the complaint should be plain and
fee from ambiguity. Thus far such public criti-
cism has been passed upon a single public official
OF Greenlee county. The reading public has been
surfeted from certain quarter with inuendos hints
and suspicious. But until a complaint has been
properly there is nothing before the court of
public opinion. Personal chickering's, animosties
and prejudice of public concern.

ROUGH RIDERS NOT INIT

After the verdict had been rendered, Colonel
Roosevelt said to the jury:
81 more moved by this verdict than it is pos
sible for to express. None of you assure you,
will have cause to regret your action. 1
especially gratifed that such a verdict came from
a Jury composed of of veery political faith"

president again, the rough riders would
have chance until those jurymen properly
cared for.

A PUERILE AND
* SENSELESS ATTACK


The attack by Governor Hunt on
the members of the board of pardons
and paroles is on a par with the gov
ernor's previous announcements on
capital punishment.
1.-THE board of pardons and paroles
has performed it's duty In the matter
Of the condemned murderers. Its
members proved that they were fairly
disposed to extend clemency were it
found that there was a shadow of JUST
f1caticn for it. They were even eager
to find such justification, but there
was none. The murders were done
in cold blood. Over and above their
vote on the question of capital pun
ihsment the people of the state have
gone on record as being for better
law enforcement, but the governor
has not yet absorbed a glimmer of
this dictum. Whatever the fate of
the condemned unfortunates at Flor
'ence, it is doubtful if any one of
them has been so powerful a factor
in tearing down respect for the law in
Arizona as has Governor Hunt, whose
entire policy in prison management
has been to make murder safe.-Ex.

THE MAN WHO ADvERTIsEs

There are but two classes of mer-
chants-those who ADVERTISE, and
those who do not. The man who
aGvertises has the BEST OF THE
DEAL. He keeps HIMSELF before
the public-he keeps HIS WARES
before the public-and he keeps their
quality and price uppermost in the
PUBLIC MIND. People TALK
about a man who advertises, because
they know he has something WORTH
advertisiEg-or he wouldn't advertise.

TOLD IN FEW WORDS.

Many pages have been written regarding the
ments warning, or making any effort to save the
drowning passengers. Germany has been condemned
by thousands, and defended by others, the latter
claiming that the warning given through the news
papers that people would travel ships of beger-
ents at their peril sufficient to justify the
act. The best comment The Era has seen was
made by the New York World, in just fifteen words,
follows:
The rattlesnake gives warning too, but he is
not regarded a highly desirable citizen :"
