Mesa News Notes
.TO9 MANY CLOTHES
 PENALTY 60 DAYS

Jose Hernandez and Atelio Rosales.' the men who were arrested Friday by City Marshal Peyton on the charge or having received stolen goods, were brought before Judge kingsbury yes terday morning The evidence dis, closed that a very considerable quan- tity of merchandise was found in their house. J. T. Lesueur estimated the amount at nearly 5000. However, 1t was impossible for local merchants to identify very much of the plunder, and the only thing left was for the judge to give the accused sixty days in jail at Phoenix for receiving stolen goods under the value of S5O.t
 Some of the identified articles be- longed to Lesueur- Salisbury Co. and others to the Golden Rule store. Two pair of fine shoes for men were from the TOggery. but one of the clerks. Mr Angola, said he sold one pair to one of the men and that another clerk had sold the others The men claimed that all goods except such as were bought here were brought from No gales and San Diego by the wife of one of the men, and that she had bought them. However, Marshal Peyton says that the woman arrived in Mesa pen niless and with but small bundle. There is little doubt but that some wholesale stealing by group of Mex jeans has been going on. and 1t is be- lieved that most, if not all. of the gang has been apprehended. In case of merchants from other towns identi- flying any of the remaining merehan- disc to value of over S5J, a felony charge will lie against the prisoners.
 Mesa has a considerable population of hard working MeXicans. and they are respected in the community. but within the last few months some hard hombres have drifted in from the bOr- der, as in the above case. Eight have been sent to jail within the-last week. and Judge Kingsbury says the good work will go on until Mesa is cleared of such characters.

NASH TAXES OVER
 THE JEFFERY PLANT

KENOSHA, Wis, Aug. 26.-'1 have been in town for ten days, getting ac- quainted with our new factory. It's a fine plant-has as high grade, up-to- date machinery as I have ever seen as sembled for the manufacture of auto. mobiles If it does not turn out a lot of figh grade cars and trucks the fault, I guess will be mine. It certainly won't be the plants I am glad to have our company, backed by such a plant, bear my name.
 This was the characteristic. off hand fashion in which C. W Nash, former president of the General Motors com pany and foremost among the pur- chasers of the Thomas B. Jeffery com pany, announced that the name of the big automobile concern would undergo a change. It will henceforth be known as the Nash Motors company, manu- lecturers of Jeffery motor cars and trucks.
 When the interviewer arrived at the factory he found Mir. Nash going through pile of correspondence. That the manufacturer was coatless didn't seem strange, for it is common knowl- edge in the automobile industry that C. w. Nash has an astounGing capacity for work.
 Many of the rumors that have been fitting about since we acquired con trol of the Jeffery interests are abso- luteiy groundless." he continued. No sweeping changes either in the person mel of our organization or in the calibre of our line are contemplated"
