He expects to be gone several days.

rior Court at Flagstaff, was visitor

accompanied by his family.
Word has reached here that Tom
Moore has sold his cattle, comprising

of Williams, and VIM. Pitts of Ash

WorsIey Would BE Congressman

Former State Senator A. A. Wors-
ley of Tucson, was in Flagstaff yes
terday from Winslow, where he had
made a speech to the workingmen in
the interest of his candidacy for the
nomination for congress against Con-
gresham Carl Hayden.
Senator Worsley is powerful orat-
or with a magnificent command of
language and could be easily taken
for William Jennings Bryan, both as
an orator and in looks. For years he
has been one of the principal advo-
Gates of the cause Of the workingman
and has been the attorney for their
organizations in the south.
He has the courage Of his convic-
tions and is an aggressive worker who
carries conviction with him in his
work.
Senator Worsley advises that his
enthusiastic friends down in the
southern part of the state have giver
him new auto in which to make his
campaign and insist on his securing
the country between now and tn,
coming primaries.
Those who heard him at Winslov
were we'll pleased with him and be
lieve he is the man who will receiv'
the nomination for the Office. He il
only making a hurried trip through
the north now, but expects to be bacl
again shortly to get better acquaint
ed with the people in this section o.
! the country.

A quiet tip. Any preson who is not
dead at the present time should get
their insurance early. A big strike
of life insurance agents is now being
considered and may be put over at
any minute. 1t is also reported that
they have connected up with the floor
walkers of the halo factories and
spade sharpeners' unions. The life
insurance companies seem to think
they are paying too much for dead
losses and presumably are afraid the
agents are taking an unfair advant-
age in talking old policy holders to
death just to spite the company.

ARE FACTS AND
FIGURES FRUITLESS?

The Williams News advise us that
we should not worry even if all the
big mine owners were democrats and
are taxed on their output of copper.
They are plumb right about it, we do
not need to worry because Senators
Ashurst, Mark Smith and Congress-
man Hayden are doing all the worry
ing necessary. Rather odd, too that
congress did not think of taking a
hack at steel too; they have been max
ing big haul on war material and it
would really have been war tax so
far as they were concerned. Since
the free trade tariff bill was passed
by the democrats, we feel confident
that the present low cost of living is
responsible for lit; our theoretical
democratic brethren have preached it
for years and years. The actual
truth is, and we all know it, the cost
Of living is greater than ever, there
is not single soul but what knows
it, no matter what his politics may
be; the country, or at least the u. 8.
government is practically devoid Of
funds and are endeavoring by every
hook and crook to get money enough
to run the government While the
people are easy to fool some Of the
time, hard boiled facts that they are
facing today disprove the theory they
have been preaching for years-"the
robber tariff does it ALL" Ask any
careful housewife how much it costs
to live today and what it cost ter
years ago, and she will tell you with.
out even a thought of politics.

The HoLbrook News sprung itself
into an eight column four PACED pap
err last week in order to accommodate
the sudden rush of matter. Out in
the country it takes some hustling to
increase the size of a paper; in city
all that is necessary is to send out for
more men, but here is it necessary for
each one on the job to hustle that
much harder. 1t shows enterprise
and ability.

Governor Hunts proclamation that
he would protect the Mexican citi-
zens, as well as other proclamations
along that line, have not had half the
cooling effect and the knowledge that
about every white citizen was COM
petently armed with smoke irons and
a liberal supply of iron beans, backed
up by burned good eye sight and very
few who would be parsimonious with
their "beans" Every Teller around
up this way feels as though, if the
exegencies of the occasion called TO,
it, he could issue hot batch of pro
Carnations on his own hook. In Other
words, if you can't live with the PEG.
pie you are dealing with, git some
that you can.

NORMAL STUDENTS IN
COMIC OPERA NEXT Week

Pinefore, the most popular comic
opera ever written and which has
been sung with great success from
one end of this country to the other
and in Europe by some of the greatest
artists of this generation, will be sung
by students Of the Normal school at
the Empress theatre Tuesday and
Wednesday nights, Aug. s and 8, UNI
der the direction of William Conrad
Mills.
Principal solo parts will be sung
by Hazel Soule, lyric soprano, Mrs.
Paul Upper, mezzo soprano, Hazel
Lee, soprano; Stanley Hibbs, tenor;
William Work, tepor; Earl E. Rosen-
berry, baritone; H. v. Ray, bass and
Delvin P. Jewett, basso profundo.
The chorus numbers forty fresh
young voices. These students have
been drilled in the. chorus parts for
the past six weeks and they sing with
much "pep" and vim.
The music is timeful and catchy
and it is safely predicted that all citi-
zens will be singing melodies of the
opera after the performance.
Delvin P. Jewett, who sings the
part Of Sir Joseph Porter X. C. B., has
phenomenal bass voice of great
depth and beauty and is destined to
become one Of Americas leading

The way some of the leading DEM
ocrats, most of them from the south,
opposed aid to the families of soldiers
who enlisted for service in Mexico,
caused considerable unfavorable COM
ment about the capitol. The fact that
men prominent in that party in the
Senate succeeded in defeating the
proposition occasioned no. end Of dis
cussion. Many Republicans have been
heard to express the view that it is
the duty of this nation to care for the
wives and children of the soldiers.
They say that it is cheaper than main
tanning a great standing army and
that the humane act is an encourage
ment to the volunteer to enlist.

The report that, President Wilson is
to appoint a commission to meet a

pei Mexico to take back Texas and

among the "peacefullers' because

snake story in which it was claimed
that a rattlesnake got into fight
with an alarm clock and was killed.
The story does not say that the alarm
clock choked the snake to death with
its hands, but it sounded like it. Once
there was a little boy who lied to his
mother and he grew up and became a

PROMO MOL|NARO
 SHOOTS AND KILLS
 BRUNO AND WIFE
Claims Dead Man Tried to Poison Him-Little
 Child Is Also Shot

Charles Bruno, an Italian, was shot and almost instantly killed yesterday morn ing about 10:90 o'clock; his wife, Carrie later at the St. Vincent's hospital, while his 11a-year-old son was dangerously wounded in the thigh. The shooting was done in Ensley by Fronio Molinaro, an- other Italian. Molinaro, it is stated, claimed that Bruno tried to poison him about eight months ago.
 Molinaro was arrested by Capt. Alex Cochran and Detectives Granger and Brown in house near the shooting and was carried to Birmingham and locked up in the county jail on a charge of man. slaughter
 The shooting occurred at the home of Bruno on Fourteenth street, between Ave- nues J and K. There were no eyewit- nesses. The officers think that Mrs. Bruno, seeing Molinaro drawing a pistol, jumped in front of her husband just as Molinaro fired, and received two bullet wounds in her back. He then fired two shots at Bruno, which took effect in the breast and almost instantly killed him. It is not known how the baby was shot, but it is supposed that a stray shot hit the little fellow in the thigh.
 The police department was immediately notified, and when they arrived on the scene they found Molinaro in a house ad- joining the one where the killing took place. He was first taken to the Ensley Jail and declined to talk. An interpreter was secured and in broken English he made statement to the effect that Bruno had attempted to poison him with some whisky about eight months ago and that he also tried to make him lose his posi- ton.
 The bodies of the dead man and woman were taken in charge by Echols & Ang- Win, undertakers, and are awaiting ar arrangements from relatives. The little boy is at the St. Vincents hospital, and has chance for recovery. Coroner Charles L. Spain was notified and held a pre- liininary hearing yesterday afternoon. He stated that the affair was plain homi- eide case. The shooting caused much ex- citement among the Italians of Ensley, but it is not feared that anything will happen.
