FIRE MENACES
 THE CITY HALL

The Phoenix city hall was threatened by flames last evening when fire in the coal bunker in the basement was discovered just in the nick of time to prevent serious damage. The blaze was not extinguished until nearly l o'clock, after raging four hours.
 When R. j. Dobbs, superintendent of the street cleaning department went to his tool room in the basement of the city hall last night. he was greeted with a dense cloud of smoke. Being unable to trace the source of the smoke, he started an investigation which resulted in the discovery of the fire in the coal bunker.
 While the blaze did not assume large proportions at any time. it was a most difficult one to combat, in as much as the fire was at the bottom of sever< tons of coal. It evidently ignited from an overheated flue.
 Bremen from No. 1 station were i'm mediately summoned and set about, in a systematic manner, to extinguish the blaze Nearly four tons of coal had to be turned oyer before the blaze was reached. Little trouble was then ex- perienced in quenching the flames.

 DOUGLAS, Nov. 2S.-The twelve hundred troops of the Third, Sixth and Twenty first Sonora battalions which have been distributed between 'ananea. Naco. Agua Prieta and Ma cozari, Sonora, will be the only sol dlers brought to northern Sonora at present according to the statement of General Manuel SobarZo. command-
 tre force. made public through Consul Ives c. Lelivier
 DDneral Sobarzo said the troops had been brought northward as a precau- tunary measure, not only on account of the rumored approach of a Villista invasion, but more particularly on ac- count of the reported activity of le- gallsta iuntas in Arizona
 General SobarZos scouts along the Chihuahua border have been unable ilp Co this time to locate any Nillistas or discover any signs of a Villista movement in this direction.
 While the troops are in the north they probably will be fitted with new uniforms, and provisioned for any "ampaign they may have 10 under take. the general said

 have returned them to him without recommendation In the opinion of the Grand Jury, however, the exercise cf the pardoning power in cases where punishment by death or term in the penitentiary has not been inflict- ed and without the recommendation Of the court where conviction was had, Is not an action that was contem- plated by the framers of the law un- der which the Pardon Board was cre- ated.
 We have given attention to the conditions existing in the city of Phoenix regarding bootlegging, gam bling, prostitution and allied crimes and vices While such conditions in nevertheless, most deplorable. Boot ieggers, gamblers and pimps who ought to be jailed as vagrants or run out of the city, are permitted to loiter about and ply vacations without seri- ous interference. The proprietors of notorious resorts where gambling, drunkenness and disorder have ob- tained habitually have not been mo- tested, nor has any serious attempt been made to improve the character of such places. While there has been much newspaper talk about the sup pression of prostitution the city seems still Co be well supplied with prosti- tutes
 These matters appear to be so mo- torious that 1t would seem to be i'm possible that some knowledge of them should not have reached the chief of police. the city manager and city com missioners.
 City affairs are not conducted on cheap or niggardly basis. and the citi- zens and taxpayers have a right tc expect that city officers should at all times be vigilant and active in the suppression of vice and crime.
 And the Grand Jury further re- port that they have completed thelI labors for the present term, and ask to be discharged.
 Dated, November 23rd. 1916. Respectfully submitted. s. $. GREEN, Foreman

MUCH INTEREST IN
 MAR|COPA GOLD CO.

The story which appeared in yes terday mornings Republican about the starting of the North Maricopa mill has created quite furry in the local stock market. Waltner Wolf who secured an option on the 17.000 shares remaining under the old fiscal con tract, was buster than a cranberry merchant yesterday and before noon had arronged for placing most of this stock Persons who have been skepti- cal up tO the present time. have finally become convined that the directors of the North Mariccpa Company have been in dead earnest and that they have achieved a result little short of marvellous.
 Working against an apathy in Phoe- nix with regard to local mining enter prises, they have by dint of hard work and good judgment. brought the prop erty 10 the point of production within five months from the day that work was begun, and have negotiated sales in Kansas City and elsewhere suffici- ent to take care of all obligations of the company and erect large and efficient plant on the property.
 Mi. Wolf, through various connec> tions, and with the assistance of Vice President Robert $. Fisher, has ar ranged for block of 20,G00 shares In the Kansas City syndicate, which 1t is more than probable will be the last stock the Phoenix public will have, an opportunity to purchase. A statement issued yesterday concerning the ability of the mine 10 produce profits on the ratio of production. was such as to make the stock very attractive. Pur- chases by some of the most prominent business men of the city and one party from Fl Paso, who have examined the property indicate that the Phoenix public is beginning to realize the grea; possibilities or the Winnifred district. Several other properties are now in active operation. and others will be set going at an early date,

 When the band of the republican guard played the Star Spangled Ban ner the entire audience arose and re- mained standing until the American national anthem was finished. Then rousing cheers were given for the United States.
 The reading of telegrams of saluta- tions from Americans was greeted with aplause as were also references to the individual of devotion and sacrifices of Americans made by Alexander Mill Ter and Emile Boutroux. who presided After the more formal part of the pro- gram had been carried out a poem by Walt Whitman was read. Another poem, entitled ITO Our Friends in America which was written for the ocasion. also was read.

STOP! CALOMEL

It's mercury! Attacks the bones,
 salivates and makes you sicl.

There's no reason why a person should take sickening, salivatina i.alomel when 30 cents buys a large bcttle of Dodson's Liver Tone-a perfect substitute for calomel.
 1t is g pleasant, vegetable liquid which will start your liver just as surely as calomel, but it doesn't make you sick and can not salivate.
 Children and grown folks can take Dodson's Liver Tone, because it is perfectly harmless.
 CalcInel is dangerous drug. It is mercury and attacks your bones Take a dose of nasty calomel today and you will feel weak, sick and nauseated tomorrow. Don't lose a days work. Take spoonful of bod sons Liver Tone instead and you will wake up feeling great. No more bill iousness. constipation, sluggishness headache, coated tongue or sour stomach. Your druggist says if you don't find Dodson's Liver Tone acts better than horrible calomel your money is waiting for you.
