PRAIRIE DOGS KILLED
 BY THE THOUSANDS
(From Saturdays Dsiiy)

By putting carbide into holes of prairie dogs during the past two weeks thousands of these pests have been killed at my place near Del Rio, s said w. T. Hall, yesterday. His in vcntion is simple, and he says will not be protected by patent rights, but is open to any who care to use it.
 The process is easily applied, by mixing the carbide with water and pouring the mixture into the open ings. The soil absorbs the water, leaving the compound in vaporized state. By placing in the hole at any point whatever lighted torch an ex- plosion takes place and every reptile, animal or even small insect therein is instantly destroyed.
 Hall set aside two acres of land that were infested by gophcrs and prairie dogs, and after setting off about two dozen charges into as many openings, the land was freed of these pests. He has continued the work in other zones, and in the ground GOV cred to date has not seen a single ami nal since. The adjoining territory las also been relieved of these crop dcstroycrs.
 c. w. Rankin, superintendent ot the large Harvey dairy at Del Rio has witnessed results obtained by Hall, and is soon to introduce the new cx- tcrminator. This farm is prcycd upon by hundreds of thousands of prairie dogs and the loss is haavy from their destroying crops as well as alfalfa Hall also stated yesterday that bean patch of over two acres was thrifty until the prairie dog entered, and made clean sweep, not pod being left. The cost is light, and results are perfect" he said.

(From Fridays DailY.l

The bringing to Williams a short time ago of carload of laborers from
 Mexico to work on the road of the
 Santa Fe, and a fully developed case of smallpox arising among them, has occasioncd alarm in that community, and official action has started by Dr. Thomas Manning, superintendent of health of Coconino county, to avert what may possibly terminate in an epidemic
 He arrived from Flagstaff yester- day and was in consultation during the day with State Superintendent of Health Dr. K. \. Looney, in this city. It was stated that the IS Mexicans had been isolated under strict quarantine, and as yet only one had become af- fccted. Dr. Looney has taken the matter up with the general offices in Los Angeles and it is reported will issue strict prohibitive regulations to govern future importations from Mex icO, by requiring that each alien sub init to vaccination before leaving his country, and remain in quarantine un- til q specified time has elapsed after this precautionary step is taken to prevent the communicating of the dis case The above bunch of Mexicans was brought over the line without any being imposed as to their physical condition and were rushed to the point designated without any sanitary regulations being imposed, the case above resulted.

 "I am glad 1 can look on gray headed people today and know some of them will live till the gospel work is finished, and if faithful, be trans lated to heaven.

PIONEER RANKS ARE SHATTERED
 ONCE AGAIN
JOHN DICK, AN EARLY DAY NTU RES ME ARIZONAN, DIES IN A CABIN AT HIS MINE.
(From Sundays Daily)

John Dick, resident of Yavapai county since 1874, and of Arizona for over half century, died in his cabin on the Hassayampa Friday night af- ter long illness, due to Bright's dis ease.
 The history of this pioneer is in- tensely interesting. His early life
 was filled with adventure, he being . member of the celebrated Lent fili- bustering expedition entering Mexico, i'll search of placer wealth and to set aside section of land supposed 10 contain rich gold quartz mines. liar old Lent, of San Francisco, headed the party of IA which sailed from that city with the west coast of Sonora as their destination. They first landed, however, on the island of Tiburon, in the Gulf of California, early in 1864, where fight occurred with the Ceres Indians. The latter outnumbered the Americans, however, ten to one, and the invasion of the land was aban- doned. Crossing the channel to the mainland of Sonora, the party ventur- cd into the interior, with a Portu- guese guide. They were resisted as lilibustcrs and after two weeks of constant clashing with Mexican ru- rales, the party dwindled to only four, among them the deceased, who later reached Tucson. He left Southern Ari- zona short time afterward, saying that a price had been placed on his head by the governor of Sonora, and Tucson being largely populated Mexican city, he and three compan- ions drifted to Central Arizona, and back to the coast to escape capture.
 Mir. Dick when only 19 years of age made the trip from New York City to San Francisco in a sailing vessel around Cape Horn, reaching that city in November Of 1857. He success fully followed placer mining on the Feather river, and with his small for tune was in the Mexican Fool Pool" as he termed that venture. The de- ceased was a native of New York City, of Scotch-Irish parentage. He worked in the Tiptop mine during its boom days, as we'll as the Peck bon anza. In late years he had been de- vcloping his gold mines near the river crossing, and had brought his hold ings up to a good rating. He was aged 7S years.

IRATE WOMAN FAILS
 TO BRIGHTEN JUDGE
(From Sundays Daily)

\ woman who, it is charged, has been collecting money in Prescott supposedly for children of foreign lands, prohibition, for cleaning up the border and for various other purposes and funds, was taken before Police Judge Frank Whisman yesterday and warned that if she was caught solicit ing contributions again she would be held for trial. The woman was arrested by Chief of Police Robert Robbins, who doubted seriously if the children of foreign lands would ever derive any benefit from the funds given her. When she was taken before Whis- man, the woman proceeded to inform kim that, according to all the rules of international law and human rights. he was exceeding his authority, and that she would do just as she pleased"
 For several minutes she is said to have created an uproar in the court room, using certain brands of Ian euage not often heard in good society, but her protests failed to move Whis- man, who warned her as she left the room that Prescott would not stand for 'mooching" in any form.

JURY DISAGREES IN
 CASE OF LARRY DUFF
(From Sundays Oaily)

(From Sundays Oaily)
 Standing, it is said, 10 to ? for ac- quittal the jury in the case of Larry Duff, charged with violation of the State prohibition amendment, was discharged from further considera- ton of the case at 1:20 o'clock yes tcrday morning after Eli Perkins, foreman of the jury, informed Judge Smith in the Superior court that there was no hope of the l2 men agreeing on verdict.
 The case was given to the jury about four o'clock Friday afternoon. At II o'clock that night the jurors had been unable to reach verdict and were locked up for the night. Further deliberation was resumed at l0:05 o'clock yesterday morning. Ten minutes later the jury returned to the court room and the instructions of the court were again read to them. At II 20 all hope of a verdict being agreed upon was abandoned.
 Although the prosecution had what it thought to be a good case against Duff, Attorney Morrison, for the de- fense, dealt it several hard blows dur ing the trial and, when the case went to the jury, the defense was confident that the result would be either a dis agrecmtn or an acquittal.
 The State was dealt another rude jolt last night when the jury in the case of J. E. Templeton, of Jerome, charged with violating the booze law, brought in a verdict of not guilty, after having been out two hours.
 Templeton was arrested in Jerome, July lst, arraigned for preliminary hearing the following day before Jus ticc $. F. Denison and bound over to the Superior court for trial. In the information filed against him he was charged with having sold a pint Of whiskey on July 1st to M w. Burgan.
 Several witnesses for the prosccu- ton gave testimony yesterday tend ing to show that Templeton had sold liquor in Jerome and three bottles of whiskey were introduced as evidence The defendant took the stand in his own defense and denied ever having disposed of whiskcy as charged in the information and produced witnesses to substantiate his testimony.
 A few minutes before the case was given to the jury verbal clash oc- cured between Deputy County At tcrney Morgan for the prosecution, and Attorney F. L. Haworth, who was appointed by the court to defend Tcnipleton. Morgan was making his final plea to the jury and called the jurors attention to the fact that, all though the State had produced many witnesses who testified to violations of the law, the defendants in the so- called bootlcgging cases had always taken the stand denied their guilt 1t this juncturc Attorney Haworth Sprang to his feet and demanded that Morgan be ordered to stop this line of argument, contcnding that what other defendants had testified to had -.f al Al plcton and declaring that if the deputy county attorney doubted the testi- mony of defendants in other cases an investigation might be started The case was given to the jury about 5:30 o'clock, with instructions that the court would be ready to hear from it at any time mp to II o'clock last night.

A Good Veto.

President Wilson has vetoed the army bill and in so doing has done wisely. It is pleasure to find some thing this administration has done which can be frankly praised, and everyone familiar with the facts and not involved in the personal dispute between General Leonard Wood and General Fred Ainsworth, retired, ap- prcciates that this is a good veto, and one made necessary by the attempt Of the Democratic chairman of the military committee, Representative Hay of Virginia, to destroy military discipline in order to enable friend to vent his spleen. The clause which called forth the veto relieved officers from liability to service and from military discipline. It was designed simply to enable General Ainsworth to publish a book attacking his time honored enemy, General Wood. Pos sibly Representative Hay should not be too severely blamed, because it is upon just such broad national lines that so much of the legislation of this administration has been based.

OVATION GIVEN CAMPBELL AT
 ALI POINTS
NUMEROUS DEMOCRATS PLEDGE SUPPORT TO HIS CANDIDACY AT THE GENERAL ELECTION.

OATMAN, Aug. 26.-Traveling in his new car, The Favorite Son." so named by his travelling companions because it was a gift by the people of Prescott to him, Tom Campbell, Re publican candidate for governor of Arizona, arrived here last night.
 He was given a reception as he passed down the main street of the camp by business men and miners who knew him. They informed him that there were a great many Tom Campbell Democrats in Oatman who were going to give him their votes in November. The popularity of the candidate was apparent from his en- trance into the camp, and 1t has grown every moment of his stay. He visited the Tom Reed and other mines meeting the workmen, and he was cordially received by all. He ex- plained that his visit at this time was merely to meet the voters and talk to them informally, and that later in the campaign he will return and hold d public meeting.
 Mir. Campbclrs party consists of Doanc Merrill, Republican candidate for State auditor; George H. Smalley, candidate for State tax commissioner, and Max Gohccn, of Prescott, who is driving The Favorite Son" automo- bile.
 They left Phoenix Tuesday morn ing, having been delayed several days because of Mir. Campbclls illness from his recent fall from rearing horse. The party stopped at Alham- bra, Peoria, Glendale, Hot Springs Junction, Wickenburg, journeying from the latter place through the Grace valley to Bousc, Wenden, Sa- lome, Parker and other points. The Campbell Democrats were found in abundance in all these places, and it is very apparent that the regis tration Is a very poor index of what is going to happen in the November election. The serious split in the Democratic party is going to have its effect in augmenting the Campbell Democrats after the primaries, and many Democrats are heard to freely predict the election of Tom Camp bell.
 They contend that they have never had a candidate whom they knew to be seriously interested in the welfare of all the people of the State as Mir. Campbell is, and who will be the same Tom when he is governor of Arizona as he is to them today.
 There arc many local fights going on m the places where Mir. Campbell'S itinerary has taken him thus far, all of them unfortunately for the show ing that will be made in the Republi can primaries, drawing Republicans into the Democratic primaries.
 The party left here tonight for Kingman, then will go cast over the northern part of the State, visiting all the towns along the line and the Grand Canyon. The itinerary takes the party on to the eastern boundary, and then south through St. Johns, Snowflake, Pine Top and the White mountains to Rice and Globe. From Globe the party will tour Graham, Grccnlcc, Cochisc. Pima, Santa Cruz. Yuma and Pinal counties. The trip ! to be covered will be about $500 . miles.
 Mir. Campbell appeared to be in eX- ,cllcut health and confident of his growing strength politically.
