SOUTH AMERICAN SOLIDARITY.

The official suggestion of the repub- hc of Ecuador that all new world na- tions meet in joint convention to take up measures for their mutual defense, may strike citizens of the United States as somewhat fantastic, but will fall upon responsive ears in South Amerca. It is in line with the poli- eies which have dominated the state craft of the southern countries for a

NEW BANK SOON ID OPEN DOORS IN
 CLIFTON
Local Men Have Organized New In- stitution Which Will Open About October 1 With a Capital Stock of $5o,000.o0. To Be Located on Chase Creek.

Clifton's new banking institution is an assured fact, articles of incor- poration having been filed with the Arizona Corporation Commission last week and a copy of which appears in another column of the Era.
 The new institution will be known as The Peoples Bank and Trust Co. |, the organizers and stockholders of which are local business men and well known throughout the county. The officers and directors are as fol- lows: O. J. Cotey, mayor of Clifton, president; A. H Slaughter, sheriff of Greenlee county, vice-president; Pick ems Anderson, treasurer of Greenlee county, vice-president; I. N. Thomp- son, formerly connected with the First National Bank, cashier; Antonio Spezia, prominent Clifton business man, John R. Ward, retired rancher, and T. M. Quebedeaux, an officer in the Fl Paso Border National Bank, directors.
 The personnel of the officers and di rectors is an evidence of the stability upon which the new bank is estab- lished. They are men who have the confidence of the public and all funds , entrusted to their care will receive lllS SdluC Cdl Slui dS II they were their own. s The outlook for the new business is very bright and it is understood that the capital stock has been oversub. scribed by several thousand dollars, | there being five hundred shares of the par value of $100 per share. It was at first expected that the new building would occupy the site oppo. site the A. c. store but it is under. stood that the former plans have been changed and the new institu. ton will be situated on Chase Creek near the Henry Senf shoe shop. It is stated that a handsome building will be erected, but that more attention will be given to the
 interior decoration and furnishings and when completed it will rank among the foremost banking houses
 in the state. It is thought that the ! new quarters will be occupied by ; the first Of October when the doors will open for business.
 The new banking house, with the Gila Valley Bank and Trust Co.,, and | the First National Bank will make three banks for Clifton, which speaks well for the present prosper. ity of the community and it's future business outlook, and there is no
 doubt but that the new institution will enjoy it's share of business.

HIM EN EHC.

On last Saturday evening at the home of the brides mother in South Clifton occurred the marriage of Miss Bernie Bradberry and R. NJ Henry, the ceremony being performed by Rev J. w. Epperly of the Baptist church. The affair was one of simplicity and was, witnessed only by the immediate relatives of the contracting parties and a few invited friends. Mrs. Henry has resided in Clifton for the past several years and by her winson1e disposition and charm ing manners has gained wide circle of friends who join in offering their congratulations on the happy event. The bride groom is a resident of Mo- renci where he is well thought of and numbers his friends by his acquain- tances.
 At the conclusion of the wedding cerem ony MT. and Mrs. Henry left for Morenci where they will make their home. They are followed by the well wishes of hosts of friends and The Era joins in extending feli- citations.

D0|NGS 0F WEEK AT THE COURT
 HOUSE
Superior Court Affairs Quiet This Week on Account of the Absence of Lucge Laine. List of Marriages and Divorces Compiled for Year 1916

Affairs in the Superior Court this week have been quiet, no cases being tried and only two new ones having been filed. Marriages have also fal- len, off, owing no doubt to the high cost of living, however a busy season is anticipated with the coming of the fall term of court.
 Judge Frann D. Laine and wife who have been spending the past month in California are expected to | return some. time the latter part of the week.
 Deputy Clerk of the Superior Court Ben c. Fehrman is again at work af- ter having spent the past two weeks in the mountains.
 The office of the Clerk of the Court has recently completed compilation of list of the marriages and divor- ces for the year 1916 for the depart ment of commerce and the bureau of census. The report shows that dur | ing the year 210 marriages were per formed and g divorces were grant. ed, the marriages outnumbering the divorces in the ratio of nearly nine to one, which goes to show that in most cases the knot is securely tied in Greenlee county.
 Marriage licenses issued this week were R. M. Henry and Bernie l Bradberry, Edwigo de la O and Ell vina Key, Jose Dias and Luz Mesa Nestor L. A. Franco and Agrossa Bilegas.
 Victor Sotelo has filed suit for divorce against Maria Ybarra de So.

DRAFT NOTICES TO BE POSTED

An extra force of clerks is at work this week in the county recorders office arranging the names and num- bers of those who will be called for the first draft lot in the U. s. army The task is no small one as the list must contain the serial numbers, the name and address and order number drawn.
 When the job is completed the list of the first 690 will be posted at the court house and also a notice will be mailed each one, notifying him to ap- pear for medical examination within five days after such notice is posted ard received. The first third are to report within five days, the second third within six days and the third third within seven days. .f It is thought that the notices will be posted and mailed by Saturday which would mean that the first third or 230 men would be required to report for medical examination on Thursday.
 In order to save the exemption board confusion and delay each man should watch his number carefully and report on the day for which his number is slated. For instance, if your number is under the 230th mum ber drawn at Washington you are to report to the board on Thursday, if under the 460th number you are to re. port on Friday and if under the 690th you are to report on Saturday. It will be useless to report before these days or to ask for exemption blanks as they will not be given out All must be taken in the order drawn and on their allotted day.

Carpenters Leaving
 In the past few days there has been an exodus of carpenters, form erly employed by the big mining companies in the district, for Dem ing, N. M, where they have gone to work for the government on the big cantonment being built at that place. It is stated that the government is paying this class of mechanics $6 for eight hours and $S for ten hours, and as a consequence of the labor troub- les here many of the men are taking advantage of the good pay for a few months rather than lay in idleness.
