DEPARTURE OF OUR SOLDIERS.
 The departure from the Warren District of United States troops comprised sole armed guard this community will to abate such feeling uneasiness obtains here well in all cities located close border Bsbee, Low ell Warren complete roster of more than twenty thousand soles of many substantial homes; of mining other property valued in the millions Surely such
 community worthy entitled protection from the Federal government.
 The military authorities doubtless possess what they consider good and sufficient for issuing the peremptory order which deprives the Warren District of Federal guardianship but convincing enlightenment the subject has been forthcoming On the other hand civic industrial leaders here have vouchsafed what they believed to be good and sufficient for main taning the guard. It down difference of opin ion and beeieve the local view is entitled support contention of in knowledge of conditions possessed by -he former Althoughgranting that the military authorities acting in whatthey believe the best interests of the vice accordance win definite place in of tiona mergency there nevertheless tangible through the feeling of confidence instied orally the District by presence of trained soldiers
 The fact that lives and homes and property must rely solely upon whatever local protection could be de veoped in emergency compels attention condition much deplorable than that resulting from the de parture of the troops.
 Throughout this country provision is supposd to he made for just such contingencies. Every in the Union with the single exception Arizona National Guard organization which is prepared give excellent where lives and homes and property mper filed. In other states politics permitted ieop ardize the morale of the militia Any offense with prompt condemnation all citizens It has become matter of honor among ocehoders and politicians to keeptheir hands of the National Guard Even the most unscrupuous shrinks dishonor which would attach to him through attempted mschinatons with militia which times of state stress consti- the sole protection for those constituents of the social order inherently allied with honor.
 Arizona finds herself defenseless this time because her militia has and the organization dis rupted by politics Because of the geographical position and the departure of Federal troops the Warren District is to-day helpless than other community in the State If there local miltiamen here National Guardspen properly equipped and adequately organized could be summoned quickly some neighboring city, therewould be for the feeling apprehension that prevails.
 The Warren District houses many hundreds of voters. It is within the province of these study the pres situation and decide for themselves who is respon- sibe for the disruption of the militia interested in the lives of those dear them; in the protection of homes of the protection of property as the of their livelihood will brand dishonest and dshonofabe and unworthy of support those who, for political have,wrecked zaton which is especially the guardian ship of lives and homes and property.
