Mrs. Lewis spent few days in Prescott, visiting her daughter Anna who is attending St. Josephs Academy.
 MT. and Mrs. Fred Platten return ed after a three days trip posting the Forest boundry. They report seeing an immense Eagle. Also took picture of its nest. They report plenty of water in the creeks.
 Richard Wilmuth who was en- ployed as day clerk at the Escalante has resigned and gone to Oatman where he has accepted a position.
 Judge Fagerburg has completed a race course north of town so that he may exercise his Auto on good road. We expect a large crowd at the first race, and hope no accidents will happen.
 We are pleased to learn the Santa Fe entertainers will play herd It will be a great treat to the peosle as there Is no way of entertaining person here. We will sure appre- ciate the talent and all should give them warm welcome. The enter tainments will take place in the new school house. The first one was on the 11th.
 Some of our town folks were taken in by an Indian who claimed to be. Curley The Crow, the only living survivor of the Custer Mas sacre. He ]ectured at the school house and asked for donation as he had bought new auto and it was not paid for and he needed the money. Every one donated as the talk was well worth it. Even if he did beat some on a land deal. One should be careful before paying out money for land now a-days. We hope they will come thru alright.
 Beware of Curley the Crow an Indian.
 Tourist cals are passing thru daily from the coast, and it looks as ii it were time to open the Gar age for business.
 Rev. Father Albuy of Williams was with us this week We ale always glad to see him and have him remain for few days. He visited Prescott, to bear the lecture by MT. Collins under the auspices of the Knights of Columbus.

Concerning Preparedness

There is no doubt that the peo- pie of the United States are over
 whe,mingly in favor of adequate
 preparedness for the defense of
 the American nation. It is also
 assured that Congress will appro-
 priate staggering sums during
 the next few years for the pur-
 pose of securing this prepared
 ness. However, merely spend ing large sums of money for war
 materials does not necessarily gain real preparedness. It is to be hoped that the moneys appro- priated by the present Congress ! for protection, will be more eco- onmically and efficiently expend- ed than similar funds which have been appropriated during the last forty years. Below are giv- en a few statistics taken from a speech by Hon. Clyde H. Taven- ner, of Illinois, before the House of Representatives, which throw a great deal of light upon the manner in which war funds have heretofore been squandered:
 'The War Department in 1913 purchased 1000 AT inch sharpnel from the ammunition ring, pay ing $25. 26 each therefore, At the same time, practically the same article was being manufac- tured in a government plant at a cost of S15. .45. The War Depart ment paid the ring S17.50 for a ! 3.8 inch common sharpnel, when it can manufacture the identical article for $7.94."
 Mr. Travenner luther cites the instance during the Spanish | American war when the three firms having a practical monoply on armor plate. raised their price one hundred dollars at the begin ing of the war. This raise add ed to their former price, made their charge to the United States for armor plate, S616 per ton, while they were selling the same plate to Russia for $249 per ton. Our government arsenal, has made the same grade of armor plate for $251 per ton and could make it much more cheaply in larger quantities.
 The American people want prepardness that actually pre- pares and prepares a dollars worth for each dollar spent. The appropriation of billion dollars for preparedness for defense may not mean preparedness for de- fense, unless our congressman and our senators decide to serve the people instead of the war munition trust and see to it that our war funds are wisely spent.
 The record of war expendi- lures for army and navy in the past are. a disgraceful accounting of graft and corruption. The ca pacity and number of our gov ernment arsenals should be in- creased and the making of war ships should be. taken over by the government. Under no con- dition should the exorbitant pric- es of the past be longer tolerated.

 Objects Sought in the Act.
 The benefits which the act seeks to confer are described in the language used in the annual report of 1914 of the secretary of agriculture with par .ticular reference to the establishment of standards of corn:
 Grades for that grain. :, if generally adopted and uniformly ap- piled throughout the country, will sim plify the relations between producers, dealers, and consumers. Under these grades, fairly used, the grower or ship per of superior quality of grain will be in position to demand from the buyer the fair value to which the quail ity of his product entities him. On the other hand, the producer of prod uct of inferior quality will receive a lower return.
 The beneficial influences upon agri- culture of uniform system of grading staple corn products will be very great through the financial incentive afford ed the farmer to improve the quality of his product by the careful selection of varieties, skillful culture, and ade- quate and effective methods of harvest ing, handling, and protecting it while in his hands.

MEXICO CITY PRESS
APPROVES STATEMENT

Mexico City, July 1.-Mexico City
newspapers vigorously approve the
statement given out by Foreign Secre-
tary Aguilar commenting upon and
refuting assertions in the American
note
The statement contains strenuous
denial of many of the charges made in
this communication with counter
charges against the United States, but
does not contain a repetition of the
demand for withdrawal of American
troops.
Replying to the charge that Amori.
can citizens have been murdered in
Mexico the statement points out that,
because of internal disturbances Mex
lean citizens also have suffered from
the operations of bandits and revolu.
tionary forces.
Many Mexicans Murdered.
1t is also asserted that in many
cases Mexicans have been murdered
on American soil and that their muir.
derers have gone unpublished, al.
though the attention of the American
state department had been called to
the occurrence.
The foreign Office points out that
many of the outrages complained OF
by the United States occurred before
the United States recognized the Car.
rama government and alleges tina:
because of this fact it is not proper
to bring these complaints to the at
tention of the de factQ government at
this time.
The foreign Office reiterates rrev1.

ment to punish persons guilt, 1T out.
