High Authority Tells Trib-
une Nation Was Never
SO Anxious to Fight.
WAR CONTROL NOW
IN LIBERAL HANDS
Everything Concentrated on OBJ
tanning Success in Great
Spring Drive.
fBy Cable N The Trfhune. ]

London, Jan. 31.-From one Of the
best informed Russian authorities here
comes a vigorous denial of the reports
row being spread among neutral coun-
tiies through German influences that
Russia Is soon 10 make oyertures for
peace. On the contrary, he says Russia
was never so confident OF victory and so
anxious TO fight.
Russia is now practically in the con-
troll Of the Liberals" said this official
These Liberals are not reyolutionists
nor anarchists, but they are much more
warlike than the Conservatives and are
concentrating all their energies on win
n.ng an early and lasting victory. no
matter how great a sacrifice must be
made.
"Gt is only In the last few months
that the country has realized It's capa-
bilities, and the awakening has pro-
duced q marvellous effect on the whole
people. 1t is true there is some grum-
bling and complaining, but It is not OF
n serious character, for the people are
being assured that the present incon-
veniences will be removed az soon as
the railway congestion Is relieved IN
the spring.
Now ell the railways are given al
racst entirely TO the movement Of muni-
tions and refugees. Food prices are
high because of the congestion; bread,
fol instance, being high, though there
is more grain in the country than ever
before. but IL cannot be moved until the
pressure on the railways IS lessened.
Everything is giving way 20 the
great spring campaign for which the
Russian army is being well equipped.
Now that our Allies are also better
fortified with men and guns. Russia
looks for more concerted action, and
she is ready 70 do her part so long as
England and France take simultaneous
action on the west front.
you may tell America, who Is our
good friend, that we not only hope for.
but confidently expect to take, the up
Ter hand in the spring"

Only recently the defence Of London
from air attacks has ben placed in the

the Admiralty had cnarge Of this mat

ever. have been cooperating harmoni-
ously.
Prior to January there was an in
terval of several months during which
England was immune from air attacks.
From June 10 until October l3 there
were six Zeppelin raids on London and
the east coast Of England, in which III
persons were reported killed and 3l3
injured.
Discussing the possibility Of serious
damage 70 London from a Zeppelin at

ANY raid intended 70 do serious

Since then considerable progress has
been made. but we should be better
satisfied II we had also sufficient aero

I'VE are perfectly aware OF the dim
culties of attacking airshiDs with aero
planes. The modern Zeppelin has a
speed Of fifty miles an hour. Suppose
II is at q given moment over a gwen
spot AZ a height Of 1000 feet An
aeropane, starting from the ground
underneath, will take half an hour TO
reach the spot where the Zeppelin was
seen, but by that time the Zeppelin
may be thirty miles away. The only
remedy seems to be 10 have al suitable
places patrols Of Quick-climbing aero
planes. ready 70 take the air as soon as
the approach Of q Zeppelin is an
nounced so as TO deal with the enemy
when he has arrived.
"The matter IS not easy. on account
Of the difficulty not only OF hearing
and seeing a Zeppelin from an aero
plane. but OF seriously damaging II
when discovered. There IS also the risk
Of landings in the dark, but the knoWi-
edge that il certainly will meet some

ASHURST IN PHOENIX.
1 Arizona's Brilliant Senator Confident ] of Democratic Success.

Bright and smiling. emanat- ing from democratic confidence and full of vigor, Henry F. Ashurst, United States senator from Arizona, has descended up- on Phoenix, says Thursdays Arizona Gazette.
 It certainly is great to inhale once more this grand Arizona atmosphere, enthusiastically exclaimed the senator as he emerged from the Jefferson hotel this morning. 'Phoenix looks bigger and better than ever. there is spirit of activity and prosperity manifest beyond my expectations.
 What about the prohibition amendment in this state, Sen ator,' was asked.
 I am strongly in favor of the prohibition amendment, ex- claimed Ashurst. The person al use law has been grossly violated. The bootleggers have applied the workings of the law to their own benefit. Yes, I, may say that I favor very strongly the passage of the amendment at the coming cleo tion."
 The democratic state ticket? I predict the election of the en- tire ticket by a large majority. In the northern part of the state where I have just been, I find that the democratic sentiment is as strong as ever.
 Tn national politics, of course, we will carry the country. Pre- sident Wilson will carry New York state, New Jersey, and In diana by substantial majorities. All indications in the east point to another democratic year. Hughes has been bitter dis appointment to everyone, his friends as we'll as his opponents. What was the surprising and painful thing to the American people about Hughes was that when he emerged from six years retirement from politics, instead of a great statesman. he emerg- ed a carping critic with no con- stitutional policies, whereas the people had every right to ex- pect lofty statesmanship and profound wisdom.
 No one today knows where MT. Hughes stands on the great issues of the day"
 Instead of placing himself squarely before the people as to what he would have done had he been in the presidential chair he has confined himself to a weak kneed policy of fault find ing and criticism which was a horrible disappointment in a man whom the nation expected great things of.''

SLIGHTLY DEMOCRATIC.

Already one thousand four hundred aud ninety nine voters have registered in Santa Cruz, of which 856 are Democratic; there are 526 Republicans, 26 Socialists, 47 Non-Partisan, 24 Independent, 12 no politics and 9 Progressive and Prohibition.
 From the official record it ap- pears that our Republican friends are going to have their work cut out for them in Santa Cruz coun- ty this election. With one of the best tickets ever presented to the voters by united Demo- cracy, victory for the entire De- mocratic ticket, national, state and county seems assured.
 In order to overcome the De- mocratic lead, Republican can didates will certainly have to go some. Already they are offer ing to trade. two little ones for a big one.

 for Campaign.

The Democratic county cen tral committee met last Tuesday afternoon at the office of Attor- ney c. l.. Hardy, and organized for the fall campaign by unani- mously electing Harry J. Saxon president.
 Frank Wilkie, assistant cash fer of the First National Bank of Nogales, was unanimously elected secretary treasurer, and Robert E. Lee, Santa Cruz coun- tvs efficient official court report CT, was chosen as assistant sec retary.
 The following members of the county central committee, were elected as members of the state Democratic committee: Tom Schultz, Dr. H. w. Purdy, Frank Wilkie and E. D. Miller.
 To fill the vacancy on the ticket for Justice of the Peace, Nogales Precinct No. l, MT. J. N. Wilkie was the unanimous choice of the committee, after the secretary had read a communica- tion from Col. A. T. Bird, the Democratic nominee. in which he stated that private business compelled him to withdraw his name from the ticket.
 The chairman appointed the various committees, after which the meeting adjourned subject to the call of the Chair.
