FALLEN NAco

An of Naco that wet" and sordid has fallen and who will mourn its fate? Local interest in the affairs the town across the border had little or no concern with who ruled it. Whether Maytorena or Gales held sway was not of great moment to the Warren District The important phase dealt solely with the fact budled license the use of intoxicating liquors permitted on one side of an international boundary while on other existed aaw prohibiting salo O any and all beverages. From sobrety to drunken soddenncss was only step. That sep amentably was taken by hundreds of men during the rum regime in Naco Arizona's prohibition law poweress to cope with he situation because has been said thousand times prohibition can go no further than prohibit gen. oral ranic in liquor Temperance alone can deal sue. cessfully with the individual
 The patronage of Naco saloons affords an impressive Illustration of the error committed by adopting badly considered prohibition laws. Naco thrved for brief space on the support of Warren District residents clusivel Men who rejected saloons here but upheld the principle of personal rights in the use of alcoholic beverages, went openey and dehantly to Naco They went in rebelous spirit They indulged immoderate- ly in Naco whereas, if their right to alcoholic beverages home had been secured them they would have conducted themselves in moderation here.
 Local officials state that boouegging in the Warren District angutshed following the opening of saloons in Naco Those who formerly Daronized booteegers dis continued their trade and Naco for supplies for immediate consumption Conservative estimates it thai an average about S1OOO a day was taken of Warren District and in tlls Naco saloons or in me wallets the gamblers. In a majority of the saloons the surroundings were obnoxious and the evil influences greater than those prevailing during loon days in Bisboe and Lowell
 Tho conclusion must therefore be drawn that in it= application to those who visited Naco purchase malt or sprtuous liquors the Arizona prohibition law worked unmitgated evil While exercising their right Of personal liberty they were brought with influences which were unquaIdedly pemcious. If en- abod to enjoy personal liberty home and make theI purchases here they would have summed Naco.
 The fan of Naco will be attended with concrete mora were credited with striving for respectful patronage Naco as whole represented the saloon traffic in t. worst aspect
 The opportunity to practice temperance in the Warrer District would have robbed Naco of sustaining The number of men lacking in decency and selfre spec as seek Naco solely for the veness to be oun' there. would have been small The intemperance 1 Arzona's liquor laws contributed to the icentousnes of Naco
 With Naco closed conditions which invite booueggin in the Warren District will return. How will these con ditons be met in the temperate laws dealin with personal liberty and providing for the perpetua exile of the saloon?

York though 1t makes fuss about things to it. seldom originates big ideas There has been Court of Cancellation operating in Cleveland three years, with That court was the outgrowth Of systematic effort carried through many years to settle police informally in the police prosecutors ohce without letting them to trial before the srate and therefore without the wouldbe lit- gants
 The Cleveland men who put this experiment through to success believed they doing an original thing, but they merely getting back to first principles. The King of Denmark had had the same 'hunch" than hundred years before A royal edic issued in Co., 3enhagen in 1795 reads follows:
 "Inashmuch as it has come to our notice that peasants other loyal good true subjects of dominion melted to quarrel about trning things by dishonest lawyers who get their clutches their unsuspectng clients until they have robbed them their property, have in fatherly wisdom for the protection royal subjects reform of the law of pro codure designed abate and check the monstrous evil
 And before Denmark undertook to simplify it's legal procedure and settle poor mems lawsuits without costly ard ongdrawn legal battles there had forty years ot successful experimentation in the Danish West Indies
 The method might be traced back, step by step in various nations that simple effective method repre- sented in Arabian nights stories where caphs sit the city gates administering justice to all who come It is a from legal system complex as to hinder its operation primitive procedure that prevailed in the youth every race
 The new court will be administered by Justice J. Iauer man who knows much law but is now obsessed by bis knowledge. He will of his learning only to keep and the tolls of the law, and viii decide by reference to simple human justice and common sense.
 "A court trial" he says. "is more civilized way of settling disputes than the duel or the battlefield but it is suu fight Painun and defendant pitted against each other every point that be gained People who fight always apt get hurt either in m If they expect to exact justice in either way they are likely to be disappointed
 "our new court will not be a court of contest It will be place to settle disagreements fight them out It will only save time and money, it will fight ing If doesn't always bring justice will often bring something better It will bring friendly under standing thing almost impossible at the end of con tested suit"
 The Cancellation Court will probably sit night for the benefit of workmen who cannot easily in th, daytime It will be particularly poor mans court Justice be bought established courts says Justice Lauer but litigation can and in effect il often amounts to the thing. The long purse wins the suit Such courts as this will help educate tn, public to the. folly of legal warfare

When Italy entered the war the state department which formerly communicated with Constan- tinople, Vienna and sometimes with Berlin through Rome, had this route cut 9l and telegrams are therefore eX chadged through the legation at Berne The legation also handles a great deal of money for prisoners of war and has the delicate task of preventing the violations of neutrality by vigilance in checking any spies trying to sliT through into belligerent countries with American passports.

BELGIAN REFUGEES
 ACCORDED BIG AID
 FROM TWO SOCIETIES
The British Quakers Work in liar mOny With the Rockefeller Foundation for the Purpose of aiding the BelgianS.

THE HAGUE. July 2O.-British Juakers. or members of the Society of Friends, are working together with the representatives of the American Rockefeller Foundation in behalf of the 5.2OO Belgian refugees, who have been provided with temporary homes by the Dutch government in the camp at Uden. The wooden barracks are occupied almost entirely by women children, as most of the men who were first there have gone to fight in what is left of Belgium for the re- covery of the rest of their national soil.
 In the well-lighted and spacious workshops scattered about Che camp, the Rockefeller Foundation has sup piled. a number of hannel-and the women and girls work steadily day aftef day, making garments of all kinds apparently pleased to have something 10 do
 The Quakers, who by their prin- ciples, are not permitted to go to war, are doing remarkable work in North eastern France and Belgium in pre- pairing future homes for the stricken civilians. They have provided them with lumber, tools and workshops and even here are building small portable bungalows, which the refugees can take with them when they find it pos sible to return 10 their country. They succeed in completing one bungalow a day at a cost of about S200. each building including a comfortable liv- ing room and kitchen combined, and two bedrooms.
 An occasional visit is paid to the refugees camp by representatives of the Rockefeller Foundation, while the Dutch ministers and high officials and their lives also take great interest in l the welfare of the Belgian guests of the Dutch nation On the day of the visit of The Associated Press cores pendent Mrs Cort van. der Linden
 wife of the premier, also went through ! the camp and in her honor a great
 Dutch flag made by the refugees them
 selves, noated from the hagstan oi Che camp.

Normal Notes and Comments.
Garden Calendar.

Hays looks the greenest, the neatest
and most attractive of any time In her
history. Plenty of rain and spirit of
pride in the looks of the town have pro-
duced the above result.
The first fruit of the local season is
now being picked and canned, namely
the cherries. Other fruits are abund-
ant and give promise of good yields.
Continue to keep the gardens well
cultivated.
Some new insects are causing trouble
in the honey locust trees. They curl
up the new leaves. There is not much
to be done unless twigs so effected are
cut off and burned.
