SIX OR EIGHT MEN ENGAGE
IN GENERAL DRUNKEN FIGHT
Two Cut With Knives and One UnCOnsCi-
GUS from Conclusion of Brain

Some time in the middle of the af-
ernoon yesterday the rep ort was sent
in over the phone that there had been
a big fight among some six or eight
men at the west end OF the railroad
yard near the Id, barns and several
men cut with knives. The marshal
Immediately went to the scene of war
and found several men, each of whom
had a quart Of whiskey, and all more
or less under the influence of liquor,
but the men who were stabbed could
not be found altho there was evidence
OF fight. Later in the evening the
report was sent in that man was ly-
ing beside the track in the vicinity OF
where the fight had taken place. He
was brot to the depot on stretcher
and later to the Leavenworth Hospital
where an examination showed that he
was suffering from conclusion OF the
brain. His head was all beat up and
bloody and he was still unconscious.
The name Of Jackson was on the in
side OF his hat band. Up to the time
of going to press yesterday evening the
men who had been cut with knives
had not turned up. They had all at
some time recently been employed in
snow shed work where some three hun
dred are employed at different places
from a mile to ten miles west OF here.
Some OF them come every day and
and seem to have no trouble in getting
all the whiskey they want. One OF
them remarked that he could get whis-
key as easy as he could get pills. One
of the doctors who attended the man
told a reporter for this paper that the
city marshal had several quart bottles
partly full OF whiskey with druggists
name and the name of a doctor who
had issued a prescription for the liquor
on the bottles.
Since the above was written The
Echo is informed that the man Jackson
was beaten and kicked by DR.. A. R.
McKeown yesterday afternoon. En-
gineer Wescott and switchman Du-
racha were witnesses to the trouble
and Marshal Potter says DR.. Nc
Keown told him that he had
kicked the man. Marshal Potter
also has two of the bottles Of
whiskey one OF which was almost empty
and the other almost full Of liquor.
Other parties had recovered two or
three of the bottles the men had
bought. The two in possession OF
Marshal Potter have a prescription
label showing they were issued by DR..
A. R. McKeown. The county attorney
and sheriff have been informed Of the
facts and stated over the phone they
would be here today and make thoro
investigation.

Two Seattle men of letters will have
a new play from their pens produced
here this week, when the Wilkes Play
ers offer AN Honest Thief" by Chas.
Eugene Banks and VIM. P. Gorsuch
Banks is well known as poet and
writer of novels and essays. Prof
Gorsuch is head of the department o.
oratory at the University of Washing
ton. The two men were thrown sintc
close association during the recent eel.
ebration Of the Shakespeare Tercen'
tenary here. and out OF that association
came the decision to jointly write {
pasy. Their production was .promptly
accepted by the management OF the
Wilkes Company, and immediately
put into rehearsal. On its local sue
cess will probably depend an Eastern
production next fall.

Candidate for Governor to Speak Here
Sunday

Circulars were distributed here this
week announcing that Geo. A. Lee,
of Seattle, candidate for governor on
the republican ticket would address
the railroad men of Leavenworth Sun
day evening, July End. Mr.. Lee is
a forceful speaker and the Youngest oi
all the candidates for governor. He
served the people of this ttate under
Gov. Hay on the Public Service COM
mission, and served them efficiently
and with distinction. If we were op-
posed to him on the ticket we would
consider him formidable opponent.
By all means go and hear him. He
is worth listening to.

The National Guard companies from
Seattle got away to the mobilizing
camp at American Lake with prscti-
cally full strength, although recruiting
was slower than the authorities would
have wished. 1t was stimulated, how
ever, by the agreement OF practically
all business houses to keep positions
open for employees who enlisted, while
some firms went so far as to agree to
pay salaries to the families of men who
joined the Guard. Many young men
declined to enlist, not because they
were afraid to fight. but because they
were afraid there wouldn't be any
fighting. They argued that they were
more that anxious to go to Mexico for
war, but loath to undertake their coun-
try's service merely for patrol duty.
The stronger the war prospects became,
the more rapidly enlistments came in.
It was pointed out, of course, that en-
listment in the National Guard is the
best sort OF Preparedness, for which
everyone is firmly enthusiastic, but the
younger generation is stronger for real
fighting than it is for the less exciting
but more necessary job OF getting in
shape to fight efficiently.

The NeutraIs of the Future.

In his speech at Louisville last Thursday President Wilson stated that the time was approaching and at hand when neutral nations in the of could longer preserve their neutrality; that they would inevitably be drawn into the conflict He attributed this approaching situation to the changed the intimate relation that is coming to exist among nations
 We think that whether a nation preserve it's neutrality depends upon the nation itself, it's strength and courage. Belgium and Greece have been unable to preserve their neutrality, because of lack of courage but because of a lack of strength. Other small nations of Europe, Norway and Sweden, Denmark and Holland, though nominany neutral, have been accorded all the rights of neutrals and to that extent neutrality been preserved, because of a lack of strength and because of lack of
 The bellgerents have made ducks and drakes of neutral rights of the United States and to that have failed to preserve our neutrality not because of a lack of strength but because of tenn porary national flabbiness and lack of Both sides the allies and the Central Powers each while encroaching upon neutral rights has complained that we have not asserted our rights against the other and are that extent unneutral Such complaint was made in the British House of Lords on the same day that Mir Wilson making his Louisville speech. We were taunted with a charge that though possessed great strength were afraid to use it in duty ourselves and duty to the smaller neutral nations who looked to to take the lead
 A neutral nation and always in the past has been able to preserve neutrality and 1t will always be to do in the future provided 1t possesses the necessary power and resolution.
 MT. Wilson not really describing change of interreation among nations. He judging the future by the dsgraceful and humiliating events which this country has permitted during the last years.
 It always will be as possible to avoid entanglng alliances as it was when Washington warned the country against them provided strong enough and brave enongh resist the draft into them When we are no longer strong and brave our nation alism will disappear.
 It may disappear anyhow into world confedera- tion when information al lines will be more con spicuous than state county boundaries; when uni versal brotherhood will take the place of nationalsm But that is a dream long way off. far away universal peace the millennium. But if time comes when we cannot preserve neutrality. will maintain tioualism only with the consent of a stronger or braver nation than own. In that case all boodshed in the American Revolution or the Civil War will have been poured out in vain.

Arizona,s Electoral Vote.

In table printed in The Republican yesterday morning there was given the electoral by states Arizonas appearing in the Wilson column. It intended to be conveyed that this was tabular prediction of the result November but 1t given a starting point basis of past performances We have idea that all Of the states on election night will be found in the columns where they appear in the table.
 If all voters who are or have been regarded as republicans should the republican ticket and if all who have been democrats should vote the demo- cratic ticket the table would probably an accurate forecast of the result that will be obtained in the electoral college. Brt they will do that this year Never before have there been many currents in American politics. The labor vote, the vote, the German vote and the Irish vote and the issues of Amercansm and paciflsm cutting party lines.
 So far as concerns Arizona President Wilson will suffer. In the southern part of the strong dis satisfaction with the administrators Mexican policy has turned hundreds of democrats against the presi- dent Likewise. his attitude equal suffrage will disastrously affect him in all parts of the state pecially in the larger counties where the women's organizations The spirit of Amerlcansm which is strong here will result in the diversion of many democratic to Hughes.
 On the other hand there is little that Wilson can gain in this from the cross currents. He will probably receive smaller proportion of the labor here than in the of the country heavier proportion of 1t will be for the socialist candi date.
 Altogether, believe that the small democratic majority shown the republican and progressive vote in Arizona in 1912 will be overcome. The pro gressive and republican vote in Arizona may be safely counted together this year There perhaps other state in the union where these parties thoroughly united

"A GIRLS SONG"

The Mouse and Marne have little waves; The slender poplars OCT them lean. One day they will forget the graves
 That give the grass it's living green. Some brown French girl the will wear That springs above his comedy head; Will twine it in her russet hair,
 Nor wonder why it is red. His blood is in the roses veins.
 His hair in the yellow corn; My grief is in the weeping rains
 And in the keening wind fororn. Flow softly softly Marne and Mouse; Tread lightly, all ye browsing sheep; Fall tenderly, silver dews,
 For here my dear Love lies asleep The earth is his sealed eyes,
 The beauty marred that my pride: Would l were lying where he Hes
 And asleep sweetly by his side! The spring will come by Mouse and Marne.
 The birds be blthesome in the tree I heap the stones to make his cairn
 Where many sleep sound as he. Tynan in "A Little Book of Irish Verse" London, Heath, Cranton Ouseey.)

TOM CANP BELL $
 NE|GHbORS WILL | ORM A LEAGUE

Loyal friends of Tom Campbell in faVapai county, many of them staunch democrats have organized the Tom Campbell league of Yavapai county and promise to give him ma 1ority of 1900 for governor in his home county
 Each member of the league Is pledged to vote for Tom Campbell, their neighbor and friend for gover- Tor.
 Here is what Tom Campbells S neigh hors who have organized 10 put him over say about him:
 When we first made Tom Campbe' assessor here in YaVapai county, the railroads and the United Verde m inc were not payinq their share of the taxes. We all know what Tom Camp bell did.
 Later. the people of the whole state elected him tax commis ssioner. Everybody knows thu he did what was right without regard to the de- n'lnds of Governor Hunts proteqes or the equally improper demands of some cf the bia mine owners He Is the right kind of a man be- cause he DARES TO DO RIGHT IN SPITE OF PRESSURE.
 Tom Campbell believes in the right of collective bargaining for workin1 men and will be fair to the labor l unors
 But he will he fair to capital qs we'll.
 Also he will be firm with both:
 He will not ally hin .,e,f with 7nv one class of citizens to fight another l cls--.
 Isn't that the kind of man yoI want for governor?
 He believes in humane prison policy. This does not necessarily mean the ooddlinn Of nurderers and har'@ned crin nsls. He ~iil nsy CT override any of the l-~s of the state which he has sworn to enforre bo-a"se ! he does not sympathize with them. There will he cuttinr off of rso- less commissions and hnuury re'a- . tiVes who have increased Arizora's ! annual expense bill. These. tocet'. e- ~Ith needless extra sessions cf tn leoirlature will be disco"raced.
 "Freak legislation will also get . set h7ck."

was wicked old witch. She loved anything that was busy, for she was too lazy to work or do anything worth while. Now this wicked witch was Elaine, and she determined sine would take all the honey from the flowers. So one day she met the queen and told her what she Was going to do and that the flowers would not have any more honey Tine queen called her family together and told them what the old witch had sain, and straightWay they began to store away an extra supply for the future.
 About this time the old witch be- came very ill and could get nothing 10 eat. The queen bee heard of her illness and divided her store with the Cld woman.
 When the witch got well and strong she became very gentle and loving for she remembered the kindness of the queen, and never again did she trN tO .nafm the lovely queen nor her family but from them she learned
