VILLA, THE MAN.-It is a pity
that Francisco Villa, the great Mex
lean Iberator of the poems, a mill
tary genius, a man of courage and
uncompromising principle, should be
branded, by even people of advanced
ideas, as a bandit, an outlaw. Villas
cause, the cause of human rights, in
my opinion, is a thousand times
greater than that of European ruling
classes now at war.
No intelligent person can satisfae-
toriIy justify the present disastrous
conflict of Europe, save that it is
dynastic and capitaIistic game of
selfish gain. AS to Villa, his motives
his principles, he stands above all the
selfish rulers, Tisking his life every
moment just because he is humane.

AFTER WAR, WHAT?-The edi-

trying to instill into our minds their
own short-sighted notions on the
question of preparing ourselves for
conditions as they will be, or are sup
posed to be, after the war.
They insist that only two things
are necessary: First, ample military
and naval preparation "a question
untouched here); and, second, the
acquisition of foreign markets, so
that we can keep our mi8s and in
dustries going, without which our
workers would have no jobs, and,
consequently, will languish in idle

orders from all parts of the United
States. According to figures COM
piled by the different railways, the
movements of eggs out of Chicago
was never so great. If the move
ments from other cities are as large
in comparison and the demand con-
tinues as great, there will be no eggs
left in storage by the first of Febru-
airy. These facts. should prove that
prices were made wholly by the sup
ply and demand. This talk of manip-
UIatiOn by one man or a combine of
men is all rot.
Should there be a law passed to
prohibit the storing of eggs as pro-
posed by some, there would be but
two conditions existing, a feast and
a famine. During the heavy prOduc-
ton they would be so cheap that
farmers would not gather them, dur
ing the winter so high that only the
wealthy could obtain them. The cold
stOrages prevent these conditions.
This year. cannot be compared with
any other year, as all food products,
as well as everything else, including
wages, have advanced to height far
beyond the expectations of man.
There are no egg kings in the bus
mess, but there is many a man in
the business who is a prince. -. w.

criminal acts, l, for one, do not be-
Ieve it, for 1 am aware of the fact
that the plutOcratic press is grossly
exaggerating alarming news. Presi-
dent Wilson will some time greatly
regret his attitude toward Villa,

ing a military expedition to punish
that outlaw"
Villa may lack letters, but he is ed
ucated, if we should comprehend BY
the term Education" that he knows
people, their ideas, their striving for
justice and economical freedom.
Why, why is it that wherever he ap-
pears he is being almost WOrshipped?
Certainly it is not because they
the people-fear him, but because he
responds to their wants and needs.
Why not be fair and ask him what
he is fighting for? Francisco Villa
fights the battle of the oppressed,
and the history of the future will
erect him a monument even if he
proves to be a failure. Or why not
inform the world that Mexico is the
private property of capitalists, who
have no humane feelings, have no
principle, except gold, and, finally,
who know no national integrity, or
peoples rights to live. Their coun-
try, their religion, their principles,
their law spells gold, oppression, ex-
pIoitation.

According to reports given by ar rivals from the southern part of this county, plans arc rapidly maturing by which reduction works are assured for an carly date at Wickenburg.
 The process will combine Notation, and large sampling mill will be a feature to promote carly returns to patrons. This movement materializes from the rapid advance of mining in that field, and in which transportation facilities figure prominently from low cost standpoint in hauling. It is also reported that the principal mine from which the large ore content is to be dawn is the Monte Christo, which has several millions tons ready for production, and to which will be added a score of other properties un- der satisfactory stage of develop ment.

The girls lcft their home July 10th, and, arriving in San Diego several days ago called on Mayor Edwin M. Capps, of that city and presented credentials from many prominent Arizona officials.
 When the girls passed through Prescott there was third mixer with them, Mrs Lucille Riddle. They refused to tell in San Diego where Mrs. Riddle was, only answering: 'Two's company, thrcc's a crowd

FAMOUS PIONEER SILVER MINE
 IS SOLD
COAST INVESTORS TAKE OVER THE SILVER BELT AND LARGE OPERATIONS ARE INAUGURATED.
(Fron Sundays Daily)

\ mining deal of interest closed here yesterday was the sale of the Silver Belt, near Humboldt, to Prem tiss, Osborn & Co.,, prominently known coast operators. The sellers are Mrs. Hugh McCrum, of San Francisco, and R. H. Burmister, of Prescott.
 This property has had an active ca rccr which dates back to the eos when 1t was worked principally for its silver ores, the metal having then a market value of $l.29 an ounce. Its product was treated at a primitive smelting plant on the Agua Fria white metal, it was compelled to sus- pend. In later years, however, lcas- CTS morked it at intervals, and its lead orc content made it profitable. Re gently Ben Rybon, leaser, made a shipment of carload of lcad-silver orc to the Rigby plant at Mayer, and returns arc now being awaited. The old development shows a shaft of 500 feet in depth. The new operators have already started work with a force of ten miners, and their engin- ecr IS on the ground directing opera tions. The Silver Belt enjoys the distinction of being one of the oldest silver mines in Arizona, and from its product earlv-day operators made a fortune In this day its lead resources are especially valuable, 40 per cent Of this metal being carried in its ores.

BOYS ON BORDER SENT TOBACCO BY
 TWO CANDIDATES

PHOENIX, Sept. 2.-The enlisted men of Arizona, numbering nearly 1000, have just been made happy by a huge shipment of smoking supplies from the combined Red Cross Soci- cities of Phoenix and Glendale. Among many other good things, there were more than enough Camel cigarettes and Velvet Smokarols and pipes to go around.
 And thereby hangs tale.
 It was a lucky thing for the boys that the feminine head of the smoker committee did not know very much about tobacco, and wrote to military headquarters for suggestions. The boys almost unanimously asked for Camel cigarettes, which gave the lady chairman bright thought.
 She went immediately to the head quarters of the Republican State Cen tral Committee and consulted Tom Campbell, who was just starting north on campaigning trip. She intimated strongly to him that few boxes of Camel cigarettes from him would be acceptable as well as appropriate, and W eo SO NhNCbl d-Nu Nitll llN Dl lplllStu her a thousand packages that she turned to Joseph H. Kibbey,' who is running on the Republican ticket for United States senator and secured a contribution for smoking tobacco and pipes
 With a truly feminine sense of the eternal fitness of things, she invested kibbcy's generous donation in Velvet Smokarols-Vclvct Joe, of course and the necessary pipes.
 These contributions were the first to be received, and luck seemed to follow them, for the committee in charge of the smoker campaign re- ports the receipt of great variety of donations from business houses and private citizens of Phoenix and Glen dale
 The chairman of the committee was so delighted with the success of the campaign that she forgot all about her promise to keep the secret of the popular candidates. and the story of the Photographed smokes leaked out through the local papers.

 The youth was aged only nine years. Symptoms of the fatal rIalady appeared Saturday forenoon. He was living with his parents near Fort Whipplc where other Wallapais have their ranchCria established. His ill- ness assuming a grave form, two phy- sicians Of Prescott were called, but the afiliction had made such headway as to bafiic medical skill \ few minutes after death occurred the body of the little fellow was placed in a grave, and strict sanitary regulations were adopted by which the settlement was quarantincd.
 Other cases of the disease reported Saturday, are said to be improving, and fear of an epidemic is not enter taincd by medical authorities of this city. The disease Is said to be of d mild form.
 \ letter received a few days ago from Albert Winters al Cleveland. Ohio, brought the sad news of the death of his youngest daughter, lsa- bella, aged only five years, from in- fantile paralysis. Alr. Winters was in the above city on mining business. having interests on Big Bug creek, which he was promoting. His family had never resided in this country.
