MOTHER JONES HAS
 ABLE ASSISTANT

PHOENIX- to the Tue son Signal, a paper devoted to the interests of labor, Governor Hunt has enlisted another appropriate work ing companion to Mother Jones and De Lara in their campaign for him. The paper in question is called "El Combate," meaning "The Battle" The Signal has the following to say of it and it's editor:
 'Dr. Rivera, fugitive from Mexi- co who is under arrest charged with violation of the Mann White Slave Act, has started a Mexican paper in this city advocating the election of- Governor Hunt. It is of little conse- quence to this fugitive whether Hunt is elected governor of Arizona or not But the impudence of this man is simply amazing. A fugitive from his own country and under arrest in this country for violating it's laws, assum- ing to tell the intelligent voters of Arizona who they should elect for governor.

 PRAISES QUALITY
 OF PENN'S THICK
Popular Globe Brakeman Endorses Plug
 Tobacco

No other form of tobacco can give you such hearty, juicy enjoy ment as you get from a tasty chew of Penn's Thick, because no other has the real tobacco flavor of Penn's.
 That is why so many experi- enced tobacco users regard Penn's Thick as the top-notch chew. They agree with D. A. Sullivan, of Globe, Ariz., well-known brake man for the Arizona Eastern R. R. Co.,, who comes out strong for Penn's Thick in the following statement:
 "PENN'S THICK is the best chewing tobacco I have ever used. The flavor is wonderfully rich, and I have always found every plug to be all tobacco. I am glad to recommend PENN'S THICK to any tobacco chewer. {, is the only chewing tobacco 1 ave used for three years"

that next winter will see radical steps taken toward this end. In addressing the postmasters Gen. Burleson declared that they are giv- ing the best postal service in the world today, and that is what the American farmer and business man are entitled to, for they pay for it. ;ie advised the postmasters to spare m expense that means greater eff ciency.
 But that does not mean extrava- gance" said MT. Burleson. Where is an official who will tell me that em- ployees useless to the service should not be Topped off? I do not want to be hard on postal employees. I be- lieve the government should require only a certain number of hours work, and that under sanitary and comfort able conditions, at a salary not only adequate, but generous. It is my purpose and your duty to see that all employees perform an adequate ser vice for the money expended. ''Evedy dollar intelligently saved | can be utilized for the improvement development and extension of service, resulting in a reduction in postage for | those served.
 Plans are being worked out for the solution of railway mail service prob lens. They are being solved in a way that will enable the United States to pay the railroads adequate compensation for service rendered, and pay only for service received. With this result, if next year we can make those using the second class mail service pay a one-half part of what they should, we can go before congress and take the first step toward penny postage.
 The fact that this year we have surplus of between S4,000,00 and $5, ,0OO. 900 demonstrates that at least the postal service is on strong business and -self-supporting basis. If we can keep down useless eXtrava- 2arce. we can soon inaugurate one cent postage in this country"
 This frank statement from the post master general substantiates declara- tions which have been made during the past year or two by officials of the National One Cent Letter Postage As sociation, which has its headquarters at Cleveland, that with economical operation of the department and reasonable adjustment of postal rates, one cent letter postage could be inaug- urated without injury to UHe leueTdl government, and letter users given the benefit of big reduction over current rates.
 Nearly sixty bills were presented at the present session of congress calling for one cent letter posta ge. Scores of representatives and Sena- tors have been closely studying the matter and have become united in conviction that the time is ripe for one cent postage, reform sought for many years, but only recently brought to the attention of congress through the persistent campaign on the part of the National One Cent Letter Postage Association.
 At the present time letter users Of the United States net a profit to the gove. nment of over S75,OOO,OOO year over actual cost Of distrlbu-

Opening of ScKool-

Opening of ScRooI-
 Although it can hardly be realized the summer months have passed and the opening of Morenci Public Schools on Tuesday morning, September 5th, already heralds the approach of fall. More than the usual interest in school affairs will be evident this year from the fact that a new Superintendent, Prof. w., E. Lutz is in charge and more than half of the teaching force Prof. Lutz has been very busy dur, ing the past two weeks getting every thing in shape and arranging for the increased attendance this year, as we'll as endeavoring to find accomo- dations for the strangers. The propo sition of rooms is a hard one at the present time and the good people should lend their assistance to Prof. Lutz who is also practically a stranger in Morenci. Among the new teach CTS to be with us this year are the following:
 Louise Thorndson, Pennington, Kan; Mildred Mize, Lordsburg, Calf; Dora Foraker, Domestic Science, Wellington, Kansas; Florence Tenny, Madison, Wis; Jessie Suhm, Hippner, Oregon: Mary Willcockson, Pana, Eu.; Ella Schroeder, Valley City, N D.: Maude Schroeder, Valley City, N. D.; Mrs. Maude Mccormick, Duluth, Minn.; Maude McCool, Pittsburg, Kansas; Geneva Peet, Freeport, Long Island; Georgia Harrison, Rolla, Mo-; lone Carter, of Colorado; and from last years corps of teachers: Chas. Dolls, Manuel Training; Marie Kauff- man, Frances Lloyd, Hilda Krichbaum Imogene Hitchcock. Edith Johnston, Jessie L. Johnston, Dora Chappel Grace POwe, Hazel Agner, Goldie Agner, Ella Schenck

tion. At the same time large maga- zine interests are securing distribu- tion of their product at one cent a pound, which means great loss to the government, and to make up this loss users of letter postage are paying a profit of s100 per cent.
 It is to correct this great injustice that the postmaster general and his hundreds of assistants throughout the country are now employed. From all indications one ctnt letter postage promises to be one of the most i'm portant issues of this winters ses- sion of congress.

0NE GENT LETTER RATE MAY GO
 IN EFFECT

Efficiency in the post office depart ment with a proper readjustment O. rates will permit the government to inaugurate a one cent letter rate within the next year, according to postmaster General Albert S. Burle- son.
 This emphatic statement made by the postmaster general before the Ma tional Association of Postmasters of the United States at their July, 1916 Convention, indicates that this i'm portant reform is much nearer reali- zation than most people believe and

 An interesting and social affair was the meeting of the members of the Southwestern Alumni Association of the Theta Tau Engineering Fraternity held at the Morenci hotel on Satur- day evening of last week. A course dinner was served during the even- ing and following this discussions concerning the welfare and interests of the association were entered into by the entire body. A number of out of town guests were present and the affair was most enjoyable one.

In the lower part of the Club, card tables will be provided for those who care
