VIII Ship Deer TO the Fair

Game Warden 0. r. Hicks has
a fine specimen of blacktail deer
which he will ship from here to
the State Fair in Phoenix, to be
added to the exhibit he will make
there, as mentioned in previous
issue OF the Signal. The deer is
now at his home on the north side.
The animal is pretty specimen Of
the deer family, a buck with
branching antlers, and is as tame
as a cat, having been raised from
a fawn, captured when but a few
days old on the New Mexico bor-
der four years ago.
Mr.. Hicks states that anyone
having deer or antelope in captivi-
ty, especially for breeding pur-
poses, who will make proper pro-
vision for their care, will not be
molested In their efforts.
In addition to his duties as
State Warden, Mr.. Hicks was last
week notified of his appointment
as Federal game warden, under the
provisions Of the migratory bird
law, by Fl. w. Heushaw, chief of
the government biological survey.
The appointment takes effect No

The Doug Ias-Phoenix Race

The Douglas. Phoenix automo-
bile road race next week in con-
nection with the State Fair, will
not be through Benson, says Mr..
c. F. Moss, who has had some
correspondence with it's promoters.
While acknowledging the Benson
Shortcut to be the shortest and
by far best route, they aver that
being a "Borderland Route race
they deem it proper to stick to
the old line, the official Border
land for this race, whatever action
they may be inclined to take in
future races of the kind. People
living on the Benson route may
look upon their action with per
feet satisfaction, as on such occas
ions there is always risk of acci-
dent and injury to ordinary trav-
elers upon the roads. And the
roads are not benefited by the
passage over them of cars at the
high speed usual in such races.

LABOR MEN PLAN AGGRESSIVE
FIGHT FOR RIGHTS

Quincy, Ill.,, Oct. 1S.-"The tax
amendment to the state constitution
which wealthy property owners, big
business men and certain Chicago
newspapers are so DESTROYS of hay
ing passed by the peoples votes at
the Nov. Z election is really a tax
dodgers amendment" That's what
Edw. N. Nockels, sec'y of the Chi.
Fed. of Labor, said at a meeting of
the Ill. State Fed. of Labor today at
which the tax amendment was being
considered. Speakers from various
parts of the state urged labor men to
vote against the amendment.
A plan of aggressive campaign has
been mapped out for the union labor
forces of the state. For the present
all effort will be centered upon the
approaching state elections. Every
endeaVor will be expended to defeat
candidates of known antagonism to
labor.
All labor forces in the state will
unite in an effort to obtain from the
next legislature an anti-injunction
bill which will deny to a judge the
right to issue such injunctiOns
against pickets and strikers as were
issued in Chicago during strikes of
tannery, clothing and cigar workers
and others.
'The anarchists of this country are
not the organized laboring men, but
the injunction-granting courts, said
John Frey, editor of the Molders'
Journal, and his audience cheered,
when their injunctions deny the
constitutional rights of organization.
Their injunctions take you by the
neck, shake your rights out of you
and throw you into Jail. In some Chi
cago strikes if you gave money to the
strikers you were in contempt of
court"
