That stories which have come from Ajo regarding reports of planned raids across the border, are the veriest bosh, and that the story that Villistas were gathering at Sonoyta, Sonora, belongs in the same category, was the emphatic statement of Jeff Milton, known all over the southwest as a peace officer and ranger, now operating mine south of Ajo. upon his arrival here last night from Ajo, says Thursday morning Tucson Star.
 MT. Milton was until recently connected with the U. S. immi- grafton service. but resigned to go into the mining business.
 Such stories are doing incal- culable harm to the mining in dustry, according to MT. Milton.
 There are many Arizona pros pectors who have claims along the border and who were in a fair way to realize on their years of work, but while such stories as these are circulated they will have no chance of getting in vestors to look at their proper ties," he said.

There were four Villistas in Sonoyta recently, but the only impulse one would have would be to give them a quarter to buy food.

When the restricted district was
removed from Covington by ordi-
nance Of the town council, there was
q general cleanup. Public senti-
ment had been thoroughly aroused
against conditions that existed at
that time, and it was thought that a
pretty thorough job had been made
Of 1t. Later it began to be rumored
that there were some places under
suspicion, being ostensjbly private
residences. Recently real estate
agency rented a house to woman
who said she was Mrs. Ollie Smith;
that her husband worked in the
Ramsay saw mill and would be home
every night and that she might take
a few boarders. Everything seem
ed all right and the lease was closed
Saturday night, June II, Deputy
Ed, Lacroix arrested the woman and
her companion, charging them with
running house of ill-repute. They
gave the names Of Ollie and Mamie
Ard. They were brought before
Mayor Lacroix and the agent who
rented them the house was called
in and asked it he did not know j
was against the law to rent house,
for such q purpose. He answered
that he did, but he was not aware
that the house was to be used for a
disreputable purpose, but accepted
the woman as given above. Under
the circumstances he was exhonor
ated.
Each woman was fined $25 and
costs or thirty days in Jail. The,
were not able to pay their fines and
were placed in the town jail, but
were later transferred to the parish

sidered to be just the place in which

man brought before him, with e.
