THE SLAUGHTER MUST 60 on



The hirelings of Great Britain in
our country, the pro-British editors
of American newspapers, have de-
cided that the human slaughter shall
go on. In their headlines and editor
ials they announce their belief that
Germany ana her allies will yet be
beaten and that, therefore, the Ger
man peace proposals should be re-
fused by the powers of the Entente.
or course, after having, by the order
of England, blackmailed Germany for
more than two years, after having
lied and misrepresented for so many
months, after having deceived the
American public as to the causes and
the facts of the European war, they
ind IL rather hard now to confess.
Their ridiculous structure Of lies,
niscalculations, wild prophesies and
prevarications has come down with
I crash under the mighty words OF
the German Chancellor No longer
ia it possible for them to make the
American public believe that Ger
many is tottering empire, ready to
collapse under the ncxt-always the
next--blow OF their masters, the
British and their enslaved allies.
Anybody with but spark OF common
sense must recognize that it will be
impossible TO defeat the Central
Powers who are steadily shooing
ahead ann have frustrated the most
stupondous efforts OF their enemies.
And anybody with but q spark OF
common sense must also recognize,
that when the Central Powers now
offer peace terms they do SO for the
sake of humanity.
But NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. of Eng
land and America and the chauvinist
press Of France decree that the fight
ing shall go on. The voice Of the
people who are tired OF shedding
their blood for a phantom created by
the press shall be drownou by the
cry for more flesh ana blood by these

and between the pay of workers
strongly protected by unions and that
OF those who are equally deserving
but have only weak union support.
Should Congress provide the neces-
sary law, the President would insist
on an equalization of pay according TO
service, regardless of union strength.
He is also in favor of arbitration
through a properly organized body, in
which both sides would be assured of
square deal.
The President Is watching closely
the prospect of general strike.
In case of failure of the final con-
ference, he will probably take drastic
action to prevent a general strike. He
has given much thought to the prob
lens involved and may be expected TO
propose a practicable and original
means of settlement.
Five siXths OF the ballots cast by
the train service workers have now
been counted and the vote, announced
here today, stands 30 to one in favor
of general strike as last resort.

for the last IL years. is an honored
guest at the home of Mrs. George w.

sired house-work. Both Mrs. Yates
and Mrs. Overman laughed heartily
over the innocent error, but suggested
that the "amende" be made in this
issue.

OF Mrs. Overman. She was much
gratified and pleased to find Elko de-
veloping SO rapidly into a city. with

ARIZONA GAINS
BY CHANGES IN
HIGHWAY BILL

PHOENIX, Ariz., April 13.--Advice
has been received from State Engineer
Lamar Cobb, who is now in Washing.
ton, that the area factor has been re-
tained in the Bankhead bill providing
federal aid for state highways, and
that the bill has been endorsed by the
executive committee of the American
Highway Officials Association. The
factor of area now added to the bill
will increase Arizona's appropriation
from $4,000 to $35S,0OO. State high
way officials from all parts of the
country are urging the early passage
of the bill. which is a substitute for
the Shackleford measure.
Western members of congress, ac-
cording to Engineer Cobb, have drop
ped local appropriation bills and are
uniting on the Forest Reserve Road
bill which would provide $1,OOO,0O0 an
nually for forest reserve roads. There
is every indication that the bill will
pass the house.

RUSSIA'S NEW OFFENSIVE

What the German official reports yes
terday characterized as Russias svi-
cious attacks in the neighborhood Of
Dvinsk are strategically important just
now, with the result Of the tremendous
Teutonic effort on the western front still
hanging in the baance.
IF prosecuted steadily and with suff-
cient intensity they are likely to relieve
the strain on the French at Verdun, and
apparently that is their immediate OBJ
ject.
The events of the past few days on
the eastern front have indicated Rus
sian capacity for team work that is
i gratifying. There are additional evi-
dences, moreover, Of the Empires re-.
operative power. Russia is displaying
new and vigorous activity along almost
the entire front in Poland, and seem
ingly the German position in that quar-
ter must weaken unless promptly rein
forced by large bodies of troops that are
now urgently needed in the west.

SERBIA STILL A NATION

The Serbian minister to France
makes a spirited refutation of the Bull
garian' s premier's s declaration that Ser
bia has ceased to exist as nation He
points out the fact that, according to the
elementary principles Of international
law, the military occupation of a coun-
try by an enemy does not extinguish It's
sovereignty or end it's national exist
ence. Within a century, he recalls,
Prussia was so invaded. Berlin was
occupied and Prussian terriory was di-
vided, but no one claims that Prussia
had lost her national sovereignty.
The truth is, of course, that national
sovereignty is finally a political ques-
ton and is not determined by tempor-
ary military conditions. If the present
conditions were to become permanent,
Serbia would cease to exist as nation,
but so long as the war continues, Serbia
remains theoretically a political entity
and her sovereignty could not be extin-
guished except by the ultimate, decisive
victory Of the Teutonic allies. The end
Of the war may find Serbia even larger
than before.

MAY BUILD ROAD
GREENLEE GRAHAM

CLIFTON, Ariz. Apr. Ia fund Of
$S0,000 will be available for the con-
struction of highway from Clifton
to Solomonville according to informa-
ton received by the county super
visors from the state engineering de-
partInert. Whether the road will be
! built, the state engineer states is a
matter entirely for the supervisor of
Graham and Greenlee county to deter
mine In case the supervisors agree
to spend their state road funds on
the new highway. the board of con-
troll will order prisoners assigned for
the road work in those counties. The
road will cost about $150,O0O.

THE HIGH COST OF WRITING

1t you feel that YOU may need a lead
pencil, or any other kind of a pencil six
months or a year hence, you should buy
it now; for that matter, had you bought
it six months ago it would have been
better. This advice and comment is
based on the fact that the European war
is increasing the price Of the various
things which go to make up complete
whether the pencil makes a black or
violet mark. Not long ago one could
buy certain high grade lead pencil
marked Made in Austria" for 10 cents
each, but now, when the pencil is found
at all, it sells for 15 cents. Practically
any good pencil now sells for at least
10 cents, for the good pencil for 5 cents
has gone with the good scent cigar and
is numbered among the things which
were and are not. The copying pencil,
which makes a violet mark when ten
derly and considerably used, and which
breaks and crumbles if harshly treated,
is going up, having advanced matter
of So a gross, because methyl violet is
used in it's composition Methyl violet
was made in Germany along with other
dyes until the Germans devoted all their
energies to a single dye, blood red.
That's why copying pencils have gone
up. Again, the inevitable rubber on the
end of lead pencil is held in place by
a rim of brass, and the munition makers
are taking all the brass available, leav-
ing the pencil makers to be thankful for
what they can get, which is but little.
OF course there is q ShOrtapa of Cedar
there has been for the last ten years,
but that, at least, is not due to the war
overseas. Another year Of the great con-
flict and the possession Of pencil will
stamp it's owner as being well-to-do.

PORTABLE TUNGSTEN
CONCENTRATOR MILL


TUCSON, Ariz., April 13.-Construc-
tion of portable tungsten concentrat-
ing mill has been completed by Robert
o. Boykin and associates, in Tucson
They have about $4,000 worth of ore
on hand, and after this has been treat
ed the mill will be moved to Las Guijas
Mr.. Boykin has contracted to concen-
trate the output of twenty tungsten
locations on a royalty basis.
The plant consists of three units,
each of which is constructed that it
can be mounted on wagon bed for
transportation. One unit is pump,
the second a crusher and the third the
concentrator proper.
1t is estimated that the cost of sop-
Grating the entire plant will not be
above $40 a day. In three-h hour test
run it turned out 5000 worth of con-
centrates.

FIRING IN THE ENGLISH
CHANNEL

The report from Flushing, Holland,
of heavy firing in the English channel,
together with the stories told by incom-
ing captains of flashes, are enough to
stir the imagination of the world.
The possibility of a great sea fight in
the North sea or English channel is in
everybody's mind. There have been
persistent rumors of late, that the Ger
man fleet was about to make foray out
of harbor. It is reported that raid on
England is widely anticipated in that
country.
So when we read of heavy firing and
of the glow of guns by night, we are at
once eager for further details 1t may
be that one of the most dramatic con-
ficts Of the war is destined to take place
somewhere between the German and
British coasts this spring.
