NOTED K. G. LECTURER
WILL SPEAK TONIGHT;
TOPIC, PEACE AND WAR

The free public lecture on Peace
and War by David Goldstein of Bos-
ton, under auspices of the Dickinson
Council of the Knights of Columbus at
Elks' hall, at 8 o'clock tonight (Fri-
day., promises to be one of the
most interesting ~discourses heard in
this city for some time, judging by the
press reports Of the lecturers work.
The Rev. R. H. Craig will introduce
the speaker.
Speaking of Mr.. Goldstein's address
in Troy, N. Y, The Record declared
his defense of American institutions
to be zone of the most remarkable
demonstrations of a patriotic nature
in the history of Troy, from the earl
The work of Mr.. Goldstein has
socialist administrations of Flint,
Mich, Belleville and Granite City,
ILL.,, and Milwaukee, while his work in
Massachusetts, has played and still
plays a great part in defeating the
socialists political propaganda. At
the time that Mr.. Goldstein resigned
from the socialist movement there
were 100000 votes polled by the social
lists of Massachusetts. Their poll has
since been reduced to less than 10000,
with prospects of growing gradually
less.
In Minot, N. D., Mr.. Goldstein de-
bated with Arthur LeSueur, now one
of the five members of the national
executive committee of the socialist
party. The Minot Daily Reporter de-
clares Mr.. LeSueur to be a "ready de-
batter, a lawyer, and an orator second
to no socialist in the world in his
equipment of scholarship, prepared
mess and %oratorical ability to cope
with the arguments of David Gold
STEM" The debate-before an audi
ence of 5000 persons-was the be-
ginning of the end of socialism in
Minot, for it is now no more a factor.
Besides, Mr.. LeSueur, who was ex-
pected to be the congressional victor,
has betaken himself to other fields in
another state. The Minot Democrat
played the role of 81 told you So"
"When Arthur LeSueur and other So
c~ialists bounded David Goldstein to
debate with the king Of Ward county
socialists, the Democrat knew that MIR.
LeSueur had not sized up his man.
We warned Artie al to just what he
would get-but he would rush IN
where it was not wise for him to
tread"
Mr.. Goldstein is usually greeted by
packed houses. His recent debate in
Springfield, Mass, was attended by
$500 persona, while thousands were
turned away. The Springfield Home
stead says:
these two opposing forces faced each
other on the platform for nearly four
hours in one Of the most remarkable
series of public utterances that this
city has beheld for many years, in
which the speakers and their beliefs
were held up to derision and public
ridicule.
"No decision was given in the de-:
bate, although to- many it appeared
as if Mr.. Goldstein had the better of
it. This seemed to be the general
opinion as expressed by the audience
as it was leaving the hall"
The public is invited to the lecture
which will be held in Elks' hall at
8 o'clock. Admission will be free to
all. Questions will be answered by
the speaker.

669 WOLVES ARE SLAIN
DURING MONTH OF APRIL

Wolf bounty warrants, calling for
$1,672.5O, were. registered with the
state auditor during the month OF
April. Each warrant calls for $3.50,
indicating that $50 wolves were killed
during the month. It is predicted
that double this number will be-
slaughtered in May, and probably as
many more in June. No ~appropr1a-
ton was made at the recent session
of the legislature, and the bounty
fund is now exhausted. It is probable
that the law makers will make an
appropriation at the next session Tor
the hunters, and meantime the war
rants will be placed in storage.

0LD RIVALS T0 ! RESUME BATTLE
 LIN PO[K FIELD

There is more than victory at stake when the White Sox ana Ouriaws resume hostilities on the Polk street grounds this afternon because the teams have agreed to do battle on a winner -take-all basis. ol , $ ea . son, if no other, it is thought that the game will be one of the most hotly contested staged in Phoenix this year.
 The Outlaws and White Sox have always been rivals. Some mighty good ball has been exhibited by these teams when pitted against each oth CT. In fact. it seems that both clubs displayed their best article of bah when doing battle with each other.
 Just to add q little excitement to the game, the Hyder store has offered s hat to the first player hitting for the circuit. There are plenty c. good swatters on each team and the Hyder offer will also have a stront tendency to increase the rivalry among team memoers.
 Manager Harry Westfall of the Outlaw clan announced last evening that Lefty" Anderson would be his mound selection this afternoon. Andy has turned in two fine games on his last appearances and it is g0ing to take alright ball on the part of tho opposition to turn in a defeat against him. Manager Harry will, of course, be behind the bat
 For the White Sox, DePriest will be the slabbist DePriest hasn't been twirling very good ball of recent date but according to statement last night, he is in much better form than for several weeks past. l. Cooper will do the receiving.
