Nail the Office Seeker.

This is open season for politi-
clans. Now is tie time to shoot
them. We mean shoot them
with questions. Nearly all can
, didates for office are writing let
ters to the voters in their terri
tory just now soliciting their
support at the general election
in November. A friend of The
MENACE in New York sends US
a letter he received from a can
didate for the United States SEN
ate. He also sends US a copy OF
his reply to the candidate, from
which we take the following sig
niicant paragraph:
"There is another matter to
which 1 wish to call your atten-
tion and that is the serious men-
ace to our very sexistance, that
being the attitude of the Roman
Catholic heriarchy in connection
with our free press. public
schools, and freedom of speech.
There has been a joint resolution
No. 264, introduced into congress
July 10th Of this year by Mr..
c. A. Lindbergh of Minnesota,
providing for the investigation
of charges made by the Free
Press Defense League, an incor-
porated body, making serious
charges against activities of the
church of Rome in politics. If
you are elected to the senate Of
the United States, I plead with
you to keep this matter in mind
and fight for this resolution"
Rome's spell over the Ameri-
can people is just about broken.
She went so far with her high
handed political intriguing, boy
cotting and persecution that the
people revolted. Rome's stock
in trade is blufing, Dragging and
bulldozing, and when the people
all finally awake to this fact,
which they sooner or later will,
they will repudiate the pope's
over Jealous subjects.
We would that every patriot
who receives a letter from an
Office seeker, especially from
candidates for congress and sem
ate, would have the energy and
frankness possessed by our New
York friend.
The office holders of this coun-
try are your servants, not your
bosses. Write the what you
stand for and tell them that you
expect them to support your prin-
ciples if you support them with
your vote.-The Menace.

VIM. Il, STEWART, Ed. AND PROP.
Very Cheap Politics.

The St. Louis Globe-Democrat
of September 9Th carries a WASH
ington dispatch under this head:
Creed is Co-Star with Tumulty
in the Movies. Senator Will Use
F>iln1 to Show the Folks in Mis-
souri, He Has High Standing at
the White House."
It appears that the Democratic
Congressman and Senators kept
the Camera men busy during the
closing days of the last session,
having themselves photographed
with Vice-President Marshall
when he was available, or with
Joseph Patrick Tumulty, Roman
Catholic secretary to the Presi-
dent, when Mr.. Marshall could
not be secured,
When Senator James A. Reed,
of Missouri, got his turn at the
"movie" man it seems that Mr..
Marshall had declared strike, :"
lso he buttonholed Tumulty, es-
Corted him to the steps of the
executive Offices and told the
camera man to grind away.
SO Lar as the Democrats are
concerned it seems that motion
pictures are to play cousiderate
part in the November election.
| Mr.. Reeds object in posing, with
| Tumulty is told by the Post-Dis-
| patch in the following paragraph:
"This film, which is the first of
its kind ever posed for around the
White House, is to be exhibit
A" in Senator Reeds campaign
for re election. 1t will be dis
played in motion picture shows
throughout Missouri as evidence
that Senator Reed is on the most
| friendly terms with the White
| House aud those who are attach
ed to it,"
| This incident naturally makes
one wonder which is the more
dignifed position, seat in the
United States Senate or a job as
private secretary to the Presl-
dent.
| Anyway, we know OF more thar
one town IN Missouri where the
exhibition of a picture of the
Senator in company with a Rom
an Catholic, Knight of Columbus
at the White House will not have
a tendency to increase the number
of his votes.

ERNEST THOMPSON SHOOTS James GARRETT
Only a Flesh Wound Made and Second En-
counter Prevented by Police.

Eugene Thompson, proprietor
OF the Star Garage, shot James
Garrett through the calf of one
leg Saturday afternoon and then
pointing the pistol at CARROTS S
made him hold up his hands and
walk eff, threatening him with
death, it is satd, if he did not do
as commanded.
The shooting occurred on Sou
tn Main street and was the re-
suit of alleged reports Thomson
claimed Garrett had been circu-
lating about him. The matter
was reported to the police and
when Officer Mingis later arrest
ed Thompson and the two were
on their way to Thompson's gar
age in his machine, they came
upon Garrett and bis brother,
Fred Garrett, and the latter is
said to have asked Thompson a
question that brought Thomp-
sons gun into evidence again,
but before he could fire it Fred
Garrett had jerked it away from.
A general mixup then ensued
and officers and citizens finally
got the Garrett boys loose from
Thompson but not before the
difficulty had attracted a great
crowd that thronged the streets.
All participants were put un-
der bond for trial.

IMMEDIATE WORK TO
 START ON PROPERTY
 OF THE CLARK JEROME

JEROME. Dec. 16.-Actual develop ment will be under way at the Clark Jerome property next Monday.
 This announcement will no doubt occasion some surprise for only two weeks have passed since H. H. C'Bull- frogO Clark came over from Los Angeles and decided to organize the Clark-Jerome Copper company.
 Up to that time the property now known as the Clark-JeIome was merely a part of the Cowboy group. and little work of any kind had been done upon it. Since MT. Clark's visit. however, he has financed the company and all assessment work. as well as a great deal of necessary preliminary work, has been accomplished under the di- rection of E. C. Pitcher. ST, who for 21 years mined in Alaska. MT. Pitcher has been engaged as permanent super intendent of the Clark-Jerome.
 Next Monday tunnel will be started at the bottom of a gulch to intersect cue of the biggest, boldest outcrops of mineralized quartz in the entire Verde district. It will not be long before machinery is installed and the tunnel rushed forward at a rapid rate. It is probable that when the dike is inter- sected a winZe will be sunk. though it is possible that ore will be found at the intersection and stoping can be started at once. Several Jerome min CTS who have been working at the property under Superintendent Pitcher think that this will be the case.
 The Clark-Jerome company is to have its own electric power plant It has acquired hydro-electric power site in Yeager canyon, about a mile from the property. With only a small dam a fall of 500 feet can be secured. According to reliable data, an eight inch stream the year around is as sured, and this will be sufficient to generate at least 100 horsepower. once the generating machinery and transmission line are installed the cost will be practically nothing. MT. Clark is negotiating for the machin- cry.
 Clark has wired Dr. l.. L. Lindsey, his local representative, that he has sold 100000 shares of stock among his friends at 50 cents. He intended to sell no more stock at this time but yielded to Dr. Lindsey's request that

VANDERBILT WARNS AGAINST TRADE WAR
Continued From Page One) Society's Menace

Within a week I heard the repre- sentative of four great railroad un- ions state his views before a New York club. To my mind they were views that contained the essence of anarchy We were told that we must not pass certain laws because they would not be .Obeyed; we were given clear intimations regarding the power of these organizations, but there was not one hint of their duty or respon- sibility to society.
 'I am hopeful that such utterances do not voice truly the attitude of the people of America, nor of any great part of organized labor, but they cer- tainly emphasize the need for a na- tional awakening to the need for sound thinking on economic problems
 Tt is easy to see that the unsound, unwise, the wrong solution of these problems that are pressing upon us will cost an immeasurable sum of pO- tentiai wealth. of individual happiness and national progress"
 Oeplores Warning
 Nanderlip declared he believed the federal reserve board had ruled un- wisely in advising against investment by member banks in short term obli- cations of the belligerent govern ments.
 ''I believe such action by the banks would be wise from a strictly banking fment would tend to restrict further gold importations, which may lead to dangerous domestic imitation and would provide credits which would be better than gold when eventually these exchanges turned against us"
