DEAF HEAR BY VIBRATION.

CONSCIENCE FUND IS LARGEST IN YEARS

Washington, July 24.-Contribu
 tiops to the treasury's conscience fund" for the fiscal year endingSJune Sc, amounted to $54,924 15, making total of $49S,76 54 returned by per sons whose consciences were uneasy over frauds against the government.
 Figures compiled at the treasury department today show the returns were much larger during the past year than ever before, chiefly be- cause of the unusual contributions one for $30,0O0 and one for $10,000.
 It was in 1911 when the first $5 came with letter, saying the writer had taken that amount from the government. The money was turned into the treasury and although there actually never has been a separate conscience fund, records of all such contributions have been kept. It is an unwritten law of the department that no effort shall be made to learn the identity of conscience stricken contributors, and even in cases where ! the writer has confessed to theft from the government, the money has 1 been accepted and no effort made to prosecute From 1911 until 1927 there were no receipts. Since then, except for 1S4S not a year has passed with out amounts large or small coming in

HOW A RAILROAD
 MET EMERGENCY
Fl Paso and Southwestern G. p. A. Exemplifies the American Way.

PHOENIX, Ariz., July 24.-Garnett King, general passenger agent for the Fl Paso and Southwestern railroad, has been in Phoenix on his way to the coast.
 King and his associates have just completed the biggest months work railroad organization has ever been called upon to perform, and they have accomplished it without a pebble.
 i The Ell Paso and Southwestern has handled practically all of the troops mobilized along the border. It has hauled 100000 soldiers with the equipment and paraphernalia which gc with a great military movement; t has delivered to base stations hauled as high as dozen special troop trains in day and has not missed a stroke in the conduct of it's regular business. All this over a one-track line gives the genial G. P. A. perfect license to smile.
 King calls attention to the fact that the troops have been moved many times further than any Euro pean mobilization has required, and moved under the most extraordinary and exigent circumstances. T think, 5 lie said, that the American rail- roads have answered the question. What would happen if the United States were called upon to move a great army on short notice? We just speeded up a little and proceed ed to handle the business. On the day when the movement was the heaviest we ran special excursions, besides getting all of our regular trains through on time"
 Between Fl Paso and Tobin Camp Stewart) 35,0OO troops are in camp Tobin is ten miles from El Paso, and aside from an uncertain automobile service this army has nc means of getting back and forth from the city. To meet this demand the Fl Paso and Southwestern will inaugurate on Friday a suburban ser vice with stops at convenient points to accommodate the Pennsylvania and Massachusetts troops. The ser vice will be half hourly from noor until 9:3O p. m., when the soldier' are required to be off the streets and at two-bits for the round triI is expected to fill a long felt want.

to Apache county, his election would be assured.
 MT. Pace knows from experience of Gov Hunts political machine and how the taxpayers of the state are being made to pay for the campaign he is waging to succeed himself. He spoke of the legislature and how the penal code was vetoed by the gover- nor after an enormous expense in putting it in shape for passage. The audience agreed with MT. Pace that the state needed new governor, one who could be depended upon to take council with the legislature and work in harmony with all the people, rather than serve only class of transients, who are here today and gone tomor- row.
 A. c. Peterson spoke on women's suffrage and expressed the sentiment of the whole of Arizona when he said that this question has been settled and could not be taken up again. Yet, the record of Mr. Hunt, as president of the constitutional convention, shows that he was against suffrage and that he is too much of politi- clan to let the women know he op- posed it.
 2. c. Prina told of his early associa- tions with MT. Olney and how they worked against prohibition as busi- ness proposition. Today they both see their error and they both are for pro- hibition. The law demands it's en- forcement and under MT. Olney would be enforced.
 The subject of taxation" by John F. Weber, was much appreciated by every one present. He told of MT. Olney's long fight to make the rail roads and mines pay their just share of the taxes. MT. Olney gathered data and found that Arizona was receiving just about one-half of what New Mex ico and California were receiving pel mile in taxation from the railroads. Il was only after long fight that was eventually carried through the courts that the railroads and mines were
 made to pay their just share. MT Olney's record as a member of the territorial board of equalization, mem Der of the Graham county board O
 supervisors, as sheriff of Graham
 county, and as mayor is one to bt
 proud of. He was found always ol
 the side of right. One who believe,

 Richard Layton was called upon as representative of Thatcher, who knows the whole state. He said it was to every mans interest to sup ;,ort Mr. Olney and to work for his success in the primary election. Un der MT. Olney property owners, as | well as laborers, would be given g square deal.

GRAHAM COUNTY Is BOOSTING FOR
 OLNEY
oIney Club Meets at Stafford and Ar
 cuses Enthusiasm for Popular Can- didate. Record of Man Commended.

On Monday of last week there was a fine meeting of the prominent demo- crats from every section of Graham county at Stafford These gentlemen have organized a George Olney club for the purpose of campaigning for MT. Olneyss nomination as the demo- cratic candidate for governor. The fol lowing from the Graham Guardian tells of this splendid meeting:
 Monday evening at the court house, there was held the first of series of meetings of the Graham County Olney club.
 To say that the meeting was an enthusiastic one, is to express it mildly. The court room was filled with representative men from all parts of the valley, and the attendance was all that the most ardent support CT of MT. Olney could wish for.
 If the subsequent meetings to be held at Thatcher, Pima and other points of the county are as well at tended by so enthusiastic followers oi MT. Olney, his majority will be SC large that the present governor will look in vain for any returns from his county.
 Dr. W. E. Platt, as chairman, pre- sided and H. D. DuBois was secre tary.
 After stating that the purpose O. the meeting was to discuss ways anG means concerning the campaign O MT. Olney, Dr. Platt called upon the secretary for a brief outline of tht subjects under discussion
 W. w. Pace was the first speaker to be called upon, and his report O the trip through Apache county witl MT. Olney was intensely interestin. MT. Pace found that the people O Apache county wanted change at tn, state house; that every man was in terested in MT. Olney's success. every county in the state was equa

GILA COUNTY'S CONVICTED
 BOOTLEGGERS WORK ROADS

GLOBE, July 26.-Gila county is feeling no despair over the spread of the liquor traffe in Arizona, but as making good in its suppression. The main reason is that convictions can be secured and that the punishment usually includes labor on the county roads A man sentenced to a year S imprisonment is allowed to go if he has wo1 1ed faithfully for four months the rest of the sentence being sus- pended with a provision of good be- havior. Very rarely is there a sec cnd conviction.
 The district attorney considers as proof that his work has been effec- tive the bare fact that booze sells as high as $S quart. The evidence is secured usually by private de, tectives hired by the county and strangers to the suspected persons.

cinched. However, Captain Wallace's

mind to take drubbing. The Will

workouts lately and with a some
what strengthened lineup they are
due to play winning ball. The other
game will be between Smiths team
and Caro's team. There is a great
deal of friendly rivalry between these
two teams, so the fans may look for
a fast game here.

When crops are poor business re-

farm, because the workers in the city
must eat, but the farmer does not
necessarily need the city-cloth can
be woven on a hand loom.
In community where the bust
ness men and the farmers work
shoulder to shoulder all enjoy pros
perity. To work shoulder to shout
der is to cooperate, but there can be
no cooperation unless each under
stands the others problems, and it is
more important that the farmers
problems be understood by the bust
