Sheritf's Life Threatened.

GLOBE, July 3.-Flushed with
their repulse of a force of deputy
5heriffs yesterday mob Of 800 strik-

Sheriff Tom Armer and District At

the officials visited guards at the Old

abreast of the mob as they entered
The company's property, they were

Sheriff Armer explained to the
strikers, who were mostly foreigners,
that his car entered the grounds on
official business, but they replied that
he couldn't take his machine across

BIG PROFITS IN RECORDERS
OFFICE.

When County Aecorder r. |. Winn
tailed up the business of his Office
at the close of June (also the close of
the fiscal year for Yuma county,, the
books showed that all previous rec
Ords for this office had been badly
shattered the past six months, says
the Yuma Sun. The total receipts
of the office for the past six months
were $4,6S0, an average of $3.50
per month. These figures show q net
profit to the county, from the filing
of legal documents, of $1,750 for the
half-year just closed. And in the
computation every item of expense,
including the salary of the recorder
himself and his deputies, has been
taken into account. When the coun-
ty budget was made up for 1916 the
estimated receipts of the recorders
office were placed at less for the en-
tire twelve months than they have
been in the first six months.
This record is a business indicator.
1t proves that business in Yuma coun-
ty never before was half so vlumin-
GUS. The filing of mining claims,
transfer of real estate, and general
operations in the channels of busi-
ness are largely registered at the re-
corder's office. The picture is, in
deed, pleasing, and prospects are
good for it becoming still more So

Quiet at Bisbee.

BISBEE, July At will take new
developments of serious sort to al
ter the present indications that the
strike has failed. Following the
Fourth fully two-thirds of the miners
are expected to be at the shaftheads
in their working clothes and carry
ing lunch buckets.
One strong reason for this belief is
the receipt of kilograms by local
union men from President Meyer,
telling them that, "The strike was
not called by any bona-fide labor or
ganizatiOn." The Warren district
trades association is considering this
point tonight. Half the underground
force of the two main companies al
ready is on the job providing about
fifteen hundred tons of ore, or more
than half the normal. Another
effort is being made at Douglas to-
day to bring out the smelter men,
but last weeks delegation of l. w.

YUMA, July 3.-Illustrative of the

this year the total value of their
cotton, alfalfa, grain and fruit will
be at least s3,183,9OO. This approx
innate is conservative. 1t is based
on the present market value of the
crops named. Notwithstanding the
cotton crop goes over one million,
alfalfa even leads this, as can be seen
by the following table, the figures of
which were compiled on the basis of
acreage planted to the crops named.

RUSH FOR LAND.

Following the passage of the amend
ment to the homestead law by con-
gress last December, emitting entries
on tracts of $40 acres of government
land, there has been a rush for such
land in the state of Arizona
According to information given
out by the Phoenix land Office,
there have been 1881 filings under
this act, known as the homestead
stock-raising law. This means that
within the last six months more
than 54O,230 acres of land have been
claimed by stock raisers in Arizona.
But in spite Of this great rush there
are still large number Of ranges to
be taken up.
Under this law the usual require
ments for cultivation are waived, and
stipulation for $500 worth of i'm
provements has been substituted

WHITES SHOOT DOWN NEGROES:

EAST ST. LOUIS, July AT least
Is negroes were shot and killed by
mobs tonight as they fed from their
burning homes, which had been fired
by white mobs. A number, 1t Is be-
lieved, ,perished in the burning houses.
Military rule was proclaimed and
300 white men were arrested.
The negro quarters in various por-
tions of the city are afire and the
flames reach the very edge of the
business district Estimates of the
number of negroes who perished in
the fire ran as high as 100, but there
was nothing authentic on which to
base such estimates. Hundreds Of
whites stood around the edges of the
burning districts and fred at the

REPORT SLACKERS.

An appeal to all Arizona citizens
10 report instances of persons failing
to comply with President Wilson's
registration order to the proper Off
cials has been made by Assistant
United States Attorney J. HI. Langs
ION of Phoenix.
1t is believed that there are more
persons in Arizona who have not
registered than at first supposed, a
majority of whom are Mexicans.
Some of these, it is admitted, failed
TO register through ignorance but
others wilfully evaded the law.
1t is the desire of the United States
attorney to enforce the law and at
the same time to mete out justice.
1t is believed that there are numer-
Gus persons who, personally, know of
Stacker" instances but have failed
to notify the proper officials. With
out the aid Of the public, officials will
be unable to enforce the registra-
ZION law.
According to the announcement Of
Attorney Langston, he has no desire
TO punish persons who failed to re-
gister through ignorance, but in
cases where the individuals wilfully
refused to comply with the order,
criminal action will be instituted,

both seed and hay for the number of
crops produced are included, seed at
IL cents pound. Cotton, both the
long and short staple varieties are
taken into account, the price being
averaged at 25 cents a pound, one
bale to the acre.
The reclamation service record also
shows that this year there are in the
valley $50 acres of pasture, upon
which thousands of head of cattle.
ne S Of wi Which can San only Be Estimated at
random. The dairy interests of the
valley are alread enormous, and the
chicken and melon industry also
mount into great sums of money.
There is no record of the melon acre
age available at this time. And to all
this must be added the value of bum
per vegetable crops this year.
Probably no section of country of
equal acreage in all the United States
will outstrip the beautiful Yuma val
ley in value of products and general
prosperity. And this valley is little
more of an adjunct to Yuma as city,
than are the Bard and Gila valleys,
the Wellton and other agricultural
and fruit raising sections tributary
to 1t. And in the general summary
the fast increasing mining industry
tributary to this city must be taken
into consideration.
When all these sources of wealth
are taken into account as they exist
today, and the prospective utopia Of
grandeur and financial credit con-
tanned in the thousands Of acres Of
unsurpassed citrus lands being open
ed up added to them, one gets at least
a partially defined view of what the
coming city Of Yuma must, in the
course Of human events, amount to.

BOUSE ENJOYS PROSPERITY,

Dennis A. Burke, former resident
Of Prescott, when he was prominently
known in business and political cir
cles, was all arrival yesterday from
Bouse, which section he reports as
enjoying exceptional prosperity
through its mining advancement. He
states that the country is now passing
through an era in which not a single
mine operating is not making good,
and warm weather is not interfering
with maintaining camps in an active
state, nor is capital lessening in in
yestment
The key to the situation has been
the big success made at Swansea and
from that zone scattered camps have
arisen, until at present over 20 prop
critics are firmly established as COM
ing producers, with large capital be-
ing willingly outlayed for each. Mr..
Burke predicts that the A. & c. min
eral belt will be the heaviest mineral
producing division of Arizona inside

is going on. The visitor is proprietor

Preparation for the mobilization

Il, ops Of the new national army ad-
v::7tced another step this week when
p esident Wilson promulgated the
I1t%uiatlons to govern exemptions
rom military service.
Local and appeal exemption boards
already have been appointed and the
| issuance of regulations will permit
| them to organize Immediately and
prepare for the concluding phases of
the task of getting the men under
training for duty in France.
In the order in which they must
come, there are three steps in the or
ganlZation process of the national
army as prescribed by congress.
These are registration, selection and
exemption. The first step has been
carried through and approximately
10,000,000 men between 21 and 81
years of age have been registered.
The regulations issued cover in de-
tail the operation of the third step.
exemption.
information concerning the second
step in the series, however, still is
lacking and officials are guarding
closely the method by which selec-
tiOn is to be applied.
The exemption regulations an
nounced that the boards will be ad-
vised of the selection process later.
although none of the steps prescrih-
ed except the organization of the
boards can be carriel on until the
selection machinery has furnished
the nanaas- of tho~r,aoa syuhaso 1fifnoas-
one hint, however, as to how the
selection machinery is to work.
The local boards are directed upon
organization to take over from the
registration precincts the cards and
lists of of men registered on June S,
and as their first duty, to provide
serial number for each registration
card. This has given support to the
belief that the selection Is to be by
number. Reports were current re-
Gently that the selection drawing
was to be made in Washington.
Presumably the process of selec
tion will be announced only short
time before it is put into operation.
When that will be known Is not
known. September l has been the
tentative date set for calling the
625,000 of the first contingent to the
colors for training. Progress with
construction of the sixteen divisional
cantonments for the troops will gov
ern that action, however. 1t Is be-
lieved that there will be no serious
delay.
The exemption process will not
take a great deal Of time. 1t Is diff
flcult to calculate the time the local
boards will need in passing on the
cases that come before them. The
regulations provide, however, that
decision in any individual case shall
not be delayed more than three days
by the local boards. The whole pro-
cess probably can be carried through
in less than thirty days
