CATTLE RUSTLERS ARE
 NOW GETTING THEIRS

Cattle rustling as an outdoor sport is rapidly losing it's attractions for some individuals. according to re- ports of convictions recently received by Secretary Sam B. Bradner of the i've stock sanitary board A num- Der of cases have just been prose- cuted in various parts of the state. and in almost every instance they have resulted in convictions.
 Apache county furnished an inter esting case last week, when a man G.' the name of Bazan was convicted of slauShtering stolen cattle. BaZan made a hard fight. and even went so far as to have the district live stock inspector arrested for bringing the complaint against him Judge w. L. Barnum, attorney for the live stock sanitary board. not only en- tirely cleared the inspector, but also secured the conviction of the man accused.
 Two important cases of burned brands are to corne up shortly in Pima and Santa Cruz counties. The first involves the theft of twenty head seized at Red Rock by Inspec- tor Miles. A third seizure case will be heard at Superior tomorrow.

Official reports, however, make no mention of such a battle. Along most of the French front the fighting is of a character similar to that which has been in progress for many months. The French generally are said to have been on the offensive but as to results the claims of Berlin and Paris are contradictory. German submarines continue their activity. Today they accounted for two British torpedo boats while the loss of ten fishing vessels and one steamer. the Erna Boldt, is credited to the under water boats. F'orty-one members of the crews of the torpedo boats were rescued. As these vessels always carry crews of & men it is believed the loss of life due to their sinking will approx innate 30.

Good intentions could not atone for a mistake at such d time, on such a subject and under such circumstances? If your verdict is against me, l ask no mercy; I desire none if I have acted un wisely. A man in public life must act according to his conscience. but however conscientiously he acts, he must be prepared to accept without com plaint any condemnation which his own errors may bring upon him, and he must be willing to bear any de- served punishment from ostracism to execution.

 We are ready to do our part, to spend thousands of dollars in advertis- ing your wonderful scenery. It is our business to bring this trip home to prospective tourists. to get it on their breakfast tables, and into their news papers"
 Some indication of Mir. Sproule's in terest in the Roosevelt dam trip is seen in the fact that his visit to Arizona at this time was made for the special purpose of taking the ride over the scenic highway and studying condi- tions in person. His criticism of the Maricopa end of the highway was off cred in the most kindly spirit. and his interest in the proposition was evident throughout. He was most enthusiastic about the scenery, the valley. in short everything about the trip, with the single exception of the road down from the dam.
 Those in the party are MT. and Mrs Sproule, Miss Marie Baldwin. Miss Edith Treanor H. T. Thompson, secre- tary to MT. Sproule, and w. E. Barnes, travelling freight and passenger agent of the Southern Pacific at Tucson. They left the presidents private car Berkeley, at Globe, and msde the trip yesterday over the highway in one of rho T.1nha- Dhna,1ixy their car here last evening and will leave at six o'clock this morning for San Francisco.

 Among the influences which gov ernments employ in dealing with each other there are two which are preeminent, antagonistic force and persuasion. Force speaks with firm ness and acts through an ultimatum and persuasion employs argument, courts investigation and depends upon negotiations. Force represents an old system, a system that must pass away: persuasion represents a new system, a system that has been growing, all too slowly it is true, but growing for 1900 years In the old system war is the chief corner better than war at it's worst; the new system contemplates an universal brotherhood established through the uplifting power of example.
 If 1 correctly interpret the note to Germany, it conforms to the old standards of system rather than to the rule of the new, and I cheer fully admit that it is abundantly sup
 
 written in characters of blood upon almost every page of human his tory. Austria furnishes most of the precedent; it was Austria's firmness that dictated an ultimatum against Serbia, which set the world at war. Every ruler now participating in this his desire for peace and denied the Th- 1cih fn, i- plN- charitable that we should credit all of them with good faith. They de- sire peace, but they sought 1t ac- cording to rules of the old system. They believed that firmness would give the best assurance of the main | tenance of peace, and faithfully fol- lowing the precedent they went so near the fire that they were one | after another sucked into the contest | Never before have the frightful fol- i lies of this fatal system been so | clearly revealed as now. The most ! enlightened, aye, the most !, Christian of nations of Europe are with each other as if in i a death struggle They are sacrific- ing the best and bravest of their sons 1n the battlefields, they are converting their gardens into cemeteries, their homes into houses of mourning. they Ire taxing the wealth of today laying he burden of debt on the toll of | he future; they have filled the air with thunderbolts more deadly than f hose of love, and they have multi oiled the perils of the deep.

NEED FORTY MEN IN
 PHOENIX COMPANIES

Although they are recruited to practically the full number of men required, forty more men are needed in Cos. A and B, N. G. A, according to Capt. Cromwell Stacey. instructor inspector of the organization.
 We have full strength on paper said Capt. Stacey yesterday. but in many cases the men are taken out of the city by work in other parts of the state, ana in case of an emer- Gency they could not report for duty without delay. If we had thirty or forty more men enlisted in the two companies right now, they could be getting very valuable training, and at the same time the fact that they would be available might be of in estimable advantage ir case the guard should be called to mobilize"

 T can say for the Southern Pacific that we are interested in seeing this thing go through. We are anxious to do our part. But the people who would take the Roosevelt trip have made their money. or are making it, and come for sightseeing. If they write back and say it's fine trip but terrible road, that ends it as surely as if they had said there are ten million mosquitoes there and theyu all bite you at once, he added with a laugh.

ROOSEVELT UNABLE
 TO HUNT IN ARCTIC

Former president Theodore Roose welt, who was invited to accompany the party of New York and Philadelphia sportsmen who will charter the Seat tie steamer Corwin for a hunting ex- petition in the Arctic next summer, will be unable to go along with the party this year.
 The sportsmen who will charter the Corwin held out the pursuit of the polar bear as a bait for the former president and Colonel Roosevelt was evidently sorely tempted. Accord ing to the news received, the idea de. lighted him, but he was unable to join the expedition because of other plans for the summer.

BIG MUSICAL EVENT
 AND DANCE SATURDAY

Of the many things in which Cor dova leads, music ranks first. Every body likes good music. That some people are as they are is largely be- cause of music-or lack of it. We all need tits a social necessity. We Socialists look forward to the day when nobody would, for economic reasons, be compelled to get along without the etherealizing dope.
 The orchestra will be in it's best. and those who can afford it will pay 50 cents admission, and will certainly be there, while those who cannot don't need to pay anything.
 Some people cannot keep still when they hear good music; some don't want to, while others can do nothing else. Those with music in their feet will be provided with a slick floor on which they can fan the air to their hearts content, Saturday Night, Don't Forget.

The PolotofsH was propelled by side wheelsan q had copper boilers. Her hull was fastened by copper and iron bolts which were hand made In the early seventies this vessel was aken to Puget Sound, where her boil ere were taken out and replaced by iron ones. Her superstructure also was remodeled and she was then sold to the Port Blakley Lumber company, and used as towboat.
 In 1897 the boat was lowed back North to St. Michael carrying a cargo Of lumber and coal. She was used as a wharf boat for a time.

UNEMP PLOYED ID BE GIVEN WORK
 BY CITY

The greater portion of the time of the city council at last nights meet ing was devoted to a general discus sion of the problem of providing work for the unemployed and destitute men of this city, a problem presented by committee appointed at the meeting held Sunday afternoon. The conclu- sion was finally reached that the most deserving and needy may be given a little work on a sewer needed on C street, which will cost between $50 and $75, the work to be done under supervision of the street committee.
 Are any of these men going hun gry?" E. J. Davis asked of E. A. Heg ner, a member of the committee, after the needs of the men had been made known.
 q don't know-they are begging and borrowing" was the reply.
 "The men should come before the council themselves, so that we can see who they are," said Councilman Goodall, chairman of the street com mittee. Men are coming here from all parts of the country and We cant support all of them. The govern ment has a fund for such purposes and the proper thing for them to do is to apply to the marshal if they are not residents of the town"
 H. C. Feldmann came to the defense of the unemployed by stating that no sef-respecting man would make public the fact that he was destitute. He said that the city had not long since spent a considerable some for orna. mental street lights and it might now spend $400 to $500 in clearing stumps from that portion of the 13-acre tract between the roadway and the railroad and transform it into a park, thus ere ating enough work to tide the needy over until spring. He offered to do nate the powder necessary.
 Tom Davis stated that if the rail road company would sell him two lots there he would give these men the work and save the city the trouble.
 The sewer project was then suggest ed by E. J. Davis, who stated that more sewer work could be done to good advantage by constructing one from the Stewart cottages.
 "The hungry men should report to the indigent committee,9 suggested Mayor Boyle.
 This brought MT. Hegner to their defense with the statement that they would not accept charity; that they wanted work. He suggested that the city go into the wood business. fur nishing tools and supplies.
 Councilmen D. J. Davis and Goodall didn't believe this plan practical, and Clerk James Flynn cited the exper-
