Mesa News Notes
ANONYMOUS WRITER
WARNED BY LEAGUE

The Mesa Trade at Home League
has come out in a forcible letter re-
garding tie unlawful use of the
leagues name as signature to
an annymous letter recently received
by a resident of this section. This
letter was very bitter in its condem-
nation Of the recipients alleged idle
habits and threatened a committee
with the doubled end of a rope as an
inducement to persuade the person
addressed to go to work. The epistle
stated that it was written by the sec
rotary of the Trade at Home League
and was signed Trade at Home
Club" Naturally when it came into
the hands of the officials of the
league they were justly angry and
they wrote Tie following, with re-
quest for it's publication:
Mesa, Ariz., Jan. 10, 1917
To Whom it May Concern:
A letter purporting to have beer
written by the Mesa Trade at Home
League has come into our possession
writer thereof, the league has this
to say:
Naturally the league denies any
| knowledge of the affair AS regards
the person receiving the anonymous
communication and his working quail
tiles the league has nothing to say
Every mans business is his own anC
the league does not NEEDLE with it
but regarding the use of the name OF
it's league in an anonymous communI-
cation, the league is very positive
Perhaps the writer of. the letter is
unaware that he or she is violating
the law in q two fold direction. First
by libelous communication, anC
second by sending threatening letter
/ through the mail. We hold the gen
eral opinion of an anonymous com
| munication, viz: That it is a cowardly
mode of attack and doubly so wher
the writer of it uses the name of an
/ other person or organization to sigI
| his threat.
We have no interest in the pro Of
! con of the letter-either it's truth OIL
| fa!sity, bat the Trade at Home Leagu,
| wishes one thing thoroughly under
! stood. Any further effort at using
| the leagues name or that of the sec
retarv in any such communication,
| will ne ferreted out and the write
! dealt with in the courts as severely a.

Cut Trees by Exploding Dynamite.

Instead Of an AK and saw to 70.
move the tops Of trees that are to be
used as masts in logging operations,
dynamite is used to shoot of the tops.
After the branches have been removed,
rigger climbs the trees, with q set
Of irons, to the point where 1t is neces-
sary to cut of the top. Here the
trunk Is usually about - inches In di.
ameter. The rigger ties string of
dynamite cartridges, fastened end to
end like sausages, around the trunk at
this point. inserts blasting cap with
about 20 feet Of fuse In one of these
sticks, lights the end Of the fuse, and
descends before the explosion takes
place. The tree top jumps Into the air
with the explosion and the trunk 10

DISTINGUISH BETWEEN THRIFT

OF course, when we warn our good
friends Of the folly Of spending money
unthoughtedly this year. we don't

story says that on one occasion John

had among his hearers a thrifty,

When we insist time after time on
the Importance OF economy, we are
sometimes afraid we shall encourage
such modern steward In outright
stinginess. We should like to make
II plain, therefore. that we have Just

FREEDOM OF THE SEAS.

Denmark Is contending for the free

Holland is contending for the free

Spain Is contending for the freedom
Of the seas.
Switzerland is contending for the
freedom Of the seas.
And yet these small nations decline
to sever diplomatic relations with
Germany.
Al the Record understands II, the
United States is contending for the
freedom Of the seas.
Germany 10 contending for the free.
dom Of the seas. and the statesmen Of
Great Britain declare they are con.
tending for the freedom Of the seas.
There is vast deal Of hypocrisy in
all this.
Citizens Of the United States are
mot permitted to ship their products
to the neutral countries Of Europe
except In limited way. In other
words. Great Britain insists that she
has the right to say how much cotton
shall be sold by Americans to the neu.
trai patrons. and that she has the
right to close the ports Of the central
empires to American cotton farmers
Why shouldn't this government arm
merchantmen and turn them loose on
the sea! Why shouldn't they carry
the products Of the United States TO
al the ports Of the world. Cotton
was not made contraband when the
Russians and japanese we're fighting
Tor supremacy in the Orient. Great
Britain refused to permit 1t.
Germany is fighting for her life.
England is fighting for her life.
France Is fighting for her life.
All the nations OF Europe involved
or engaged In this war are fighting
Tor existence. Senator Works Of Cal
ifornia admits that Germany has VIC.
lated the rights Of our people on the
sea under international law. but he
also insists that Great Britain has
violated the rights OF our people on
the sea.
All the belligerents are outlaws for
the reason that all the belligerents
have repeatedly violated the rights OF
neutrals on the sea.
They are fighting for existence.
They are fighting for success. They
