These horses were all ridden except
the last, which got nervous in the
chute and threatened to carry away
all the cinching tackle He was re-
leased to sprint off to the corral amid
the yells of 10000 spectators, who
constituted the record crowd for this

SNORER5 ARE

Slumbering Roars of Visi-

Popular Favor; Prescott
is Political as Well as
Sport Headquarters
BY LYLE. ABBOTT
Especial to The Republican,

PRESCOTT, July Prescott is
political as well as sports headquar-
tiers of Arizona today Out of a visit
ing list of 5000, there are about 1000
candidates. In spite of the fact the
Reps are going to hold a convention
here. the Demos are conspicuous by
their presence. One can gaze into shop
windows, note the structural peculiar
titles of pictured faces and check the
.owner of the Vote for" card in the
grand promenade that began circling
the public square as soon as everybody
got dressed and fed this morning
Everybody is welcome in Prescott
this week, but those who snore Snor-
ing is a thing that should be legis-
lated against Snoring is a habit in
volving moral turpitude. By Saturday,
when visitors will have been tired out
by the varied forms of excitement, it is
Just possible that a row of the corpses
of snorers will be decorating some
lamppost. Loud discussion of the al
lies drive in the bathroom by the
ginks who reside across the hall and
leave their door open. is another crime.
When chaps have to sleep five and six
in a room, they must recognize the
amenities.
So far. nobody has had to take re-
pose in the plaza, but that is still a
possibility.
Politics Predominant
This is the first Frontier celebration
at which politics has sidetracked
buckin' horses as a topic of converse
ton Until the wild west sports get
well under way, the arena happenings
are bound to be subordinated to those
of the high school auditorium, where
on Thursday, the republicans will be
called to order by Chairman r. E.
Sloan. One can't get many bets on
how many riders Cottoneye will I'M
load, or how quick Wild-horse VIII
will tangle his steer, but there is plenty
Of offering and some taking on the
political situation. In fact, the opti
nism Is almost hysterical, and the
pessimism is deep as the gloom of
night. So there are many differences
If opinion and much good -natured
laggling.
Frontier day was officially opened
his morning. by an address by Hon.
| Thomas E. Campbell. At noon, the
phoenix booster excursion arrived
With nearly 175 green hated tourists,
Who paraded the streets in the imme-

DEMAND FOR AUToe eREATEsT IN HISTORY
 OF BUZZ WAGONS

NEW YORK, Feb. 2S.-The demand for automobiles continues in excess Of expectations. Deliveries of popu- lar cars arc not being promised with in month to six weeks. One Dromi. nent New York dealer sold more ears on one day last week than In the en- tire month of January, 1915. Ship. ments from motor ccntera are taxing the facilities of the railroads, and Q lack of proper equipment is reported.
 The question Is being considered by some automobile companies of build ing at their own expense houses on ordinary flat cars to provide shipping facilities. Tn recent months certain larger motor companies have been turning the ordinary box car into Q two-storied affair by putting :n au. other floor half way up. enabling two layers of cars.
 The freight congestion in the New England district has been such that in certain cases automobiles have been unIoaded at Albany and run over the road to Boston and neighboring points to insure their delivery.

WOULD VOTE ON ALL QUESTIONS
 AT SAME TIME

JUNEAU, Feb. 29.--To the Editor Many voters of the City of Juneau are of the opinion that the special election called for next Wednesday Is for the purpose of adopting or re- iecting the provisions of Chapter 50. of the Laws of 1915, which provide (Section and 4) for the election of @ mayor and common council consist ing of six councilmen. and for the election of (sect.on and @ City Clerk, City Treasurer and City At torney. In this they are mistaken.
 The motion passed by the Council at the last meeting, as appears by the notice now being published, cov- CTS sections 8 and 1 only--the election of the mayor and six councilmen-and the section (s) providing for the cleo ton of Clerk. Treasurer and Attorney was omitted.
 AS 1t IS now tho people are given only the opportunity to vote upon the question of electing O Mayor and Council under the new law and not given the opportunity to express them selves in respect to the other offices, although all are included in the same chapter of the Laws of 1915.
 Why Q part and not the whole; why this distinction; why invoke two Of the sections and not the other; why put the city to the expense of this election add another later when all might, and should be passed upon at one time. and no additional expense? Whose "n.gger in the wood-pile" is this, and. also, whose 'wood-pile" is it3
 This is too palpable, and the people who are IaborIng under this misap prehension, and desire the whole ques- ton settled-for or against would do well to take the matter up circu- late another petition. before tco late, and have the whole proposition voted upon.

FINDS THE MOVIE
 SPEEDS PARENTS

This has become fast age through the advent of the moving picture show and we parents will have to get up and git to keep pace with our chil- dren"
 It was Dr. William S. Sadler speak ing, and he was addressing the coun- ell of the Parent.Teacher Association of Chicago of the board of education recently.
 "In former times our children were not told of certain conventions of life until they were IS or 20 years of age. :" the doctor said, "but now they learn these things from the movies. ln- stead Of letting the children grow up like Topsy. parents must now inform the children of these conventionalities before they are 10 years old.
 "The moving picture is going to compel the teaching of sex hygiene Co the children-not In the schools. but by the father and mother, the only persons capable of teaching .t."
 Must Harness tho Movie
 Dr. Sadler said there were some evils in the moving picture. but he explained that the thing to do is to harness the movie" before 1t Is too late and make It the greatest power for good since the Star of Bethlehem rose."
 Some of the other ideas advanced by the doctor were:
 "One of the best things which can be said of the moving picture show Is its influence in keeping father, mo- ther and child together-the greatest single unifying force in the family life of today.
 Many Of the objections can be el.- minated if father and mother are found sitting at the side of son and daughter as the picture play so they can discuss 1t among themselves af- terward.
 Tt is better for Q man to spend 10 or % cents 0 night sitting with h,s own wife at a moving picture show than to spend the same time and money at beer garden.
 Would censor Audience.
 q would censor the audiences, and say this show is for married people, this one for unmarried or those who ought to be married. this for young people. this for children and that for neurotics.
 Tt is @ crime to take child to thriller picture show when t is known what effect 1t will have on its nervous system.
 "The movie is Q factor In our civili- zation. It has come to stay. It will be in the school, In the church, in the house. We must early rob 1t of its evils and make 1t serve 8 good cause"
 Mrs. II. H. Kingsley of the Evans, ton women's Club said that every where there Is a striving for thrills. She told of a billboard sign on the North Side which reads: Don't kill your wife; Let the chink Laundry do the work"

Mrs. caaon further charges that at the home gre two small closets known as .the lockers. Girls who infringe the rules are confined Tn these for long periods. with only bread and wa- ter to subsist on. Mrs. cason alleges 'the lockers" are SO narrow the pris- oners cannot lie down. and the walls and doors ere thiclxly studded with sharp nails to prevent the girls from leaning against thaem.
 Torture Is Charged
 Mrs. Carson further alleges that for breaking q regulation her daughters bare feet were chained together. Then in her helpless condition she was compelled by one of tho guards to at tempt to run. This resulted in her falling several times and receiving se- were bruises. She was denied medi- cal attention. it is alleged.
 Mrs. cason further reclted how the girls were unmercifully beaten, and how other girls were compelled to aid in nogging their fellow inmates. She said the girls were not given suffic- tent food or clothing and that no pro visions were made for their educa- tion. She also said that some of the girls were diseased and that other girls were forced to occupy the same beds with them and drink from the same cups.

LITTLE CHILD IS
 TAKEN FROM MOTHER


 A little half native and half Italian girl. 2lk years old, was found late yesterday nearly dead from exposure and neglect due to the habit of habit ual drunkenness on the part of its mother. Mrs. Cambetti better known to the officers as Lilly Hansen.
 Mrs. Cambetti is an attractive na- tive and has contracted Q taste for liquor which transcends every other feeling and while on her sprees the child Is either taken along or left in the fsrt handy place until the mother returns. She was arrested several days ago by the city officers and fined S1OO by the city magistrate but the sentence was suspended on account of the child and the woman's promise to be good. Yesterday she got on another spree and was picked up by the Federal officers. In the commissioners court the child was taken from her and was adopted by Mir. and Mrs. Veto Bard., with the consent of the father.
 cambettl, who works at the Perse- verance and is sober and industrious, stated that the mother spent every cent he gave her for whiskey and that he had no control over Ter.
