LABOR BUYS LIBERTY BONDS.

While it is not possible to give
Der of subscribers or the amount of
bonds bought, yet reports from
many corporations and firms which
are large employers of labor show
that the working men of America
were numerous and liberal purchas-
ers in the initial two billion dollar
issue of Liberty Bonds.
There can be no doubt that the
working men of America are class
of citizens whose patriotism and
ability afford a tremendous market
for government bonds.

Congress fortunately has been much engosseG with problems to ignore domestic development en- trely In closing days the it has appro priaed s45,OOOOOO deepen the channel and prevent floods the Mississippi and s5OOOOOO for similar work the Sacramento in California. The money is to be spent period of several years.
 It is unfair designate such appropriations pork just it is unfair apply that nvidous a propration for deepening the East River channel in New York harbOr make the Brooklyn navy yard available for the largest warshps Our internal waterways sys like system of highways is need of far consideration and far greater expenditures than it a received if the nations economic life is to ne fos tered and its transportation possibilities fully realized
 The of money expended is a relatively unm- porant matter What is that the funds should be expended wisely, carrying out deliberate comprehensive plan
 If we get into shall doubt spend several billions Of dollars in unproductive activities. We really going spend billions merely defensive pur- poses, whether we have not Whenever a military emergency appears, the nation Ks huge budgets with a hurrah. Why should there be much opposition to every proposal for spending smaller creative constructive work for the utilization our natural re- sources?

GERMAN LETTERS.

Among Germanys minor troubles there is bitter con abolition of the Gothic letters in of the Roman characters used in nearly all other nations The Roman type made considerable headway in Germany years particularly in the printing of scientific works intended circulation throughout the world. But newspapers and periodicals still held to the old Gothic and the people use it almost universally.
 The Kaiser has long been defender the old type, preferrng he prefers many medieval things ground helps preserve the Germans dis tinct and peculiar people
 This very argum is used against the Gothic let ters argued that they responsible for much misunderstanding of Germany throughout the world. The Berlin Tagebatt explains that would dersand sympetize with Germany they could only literature; but they deerred from learn ing because is necessary the start, learn new alphabet.
 The letters moreover criticized hard the eyes, thereby making reading unnecessarily difcu-a true accusation as people will The monks of the middle ages who evolved Gothic characters were concerned with the decorative effects of their manuscripts than with their legiblity.
 The change to simple Roman would doubt be an excellent thing But might prove effective it's advocates think Something than plainer print is needed to make presenday Germany inteigibe to the outer world

 The Government has reserved for future use various oil lands particularly in California In territory adjacent to the government reservations, private dealers have sunk wells and pumping oil The question is where does the oil that flows into the privately owned wells?

ELECTION FRAUDS.


 Much wailing gnashing teeth is heard from the Hunt side of gubernaoa controversy the fact that fraud has been uncovered the workings of the election board of Precinct Number 1. Douglas. The attorneys for the former governor friends lose sight of their wild scramble and hope that the former white hope will again be able place his corpulence behind nice desk in nice office in well appointed buildings and again draw monthly stipend from the people of of Arizona
 Losing sight entirely the that gross fraud has been perpetuated counsel for the former is sndeavoring make black shirt appear spotessy white Whitewash the product Of older days but it las not lost its usefulness theft and felony is concernedyea in this progressive of states and forward of counties.
 Many overlook the obvious fact that fight Number l. Douglas, not the governorshp. It between Clyde Branum and R. T Dunlap for jus of the peace Henchmen of the former in con trol of the Number polling place They undoubtedly changed many straight Republican ballots to Democratic in hope that Branum would overcome his CD ponents lead. No one least of all the supporters oi Clyde Branum and George w P. Hunt, suspected that Tom Campbell had the slightest chance of election. The election of the governor did the board of Douglas Number Nevertheless the acts of H. H Hart and Art Pearson are exceedingly reprehensible.
 When supporters the executive maintain that being held outside the by attorneys fer Campbell, they attempting either make fools of people deliberately attempting falsy their idol into another They overlook the obvious in searching for some straw which might be turned in vain hope efforts to eliminate will the benefit of their champion
 Whether not Judge Standford, in the superior Maricopa county. eliminates Douglas tle gubernatorial small when the tam pering with large scale and in such fragrant is to be considered.
 County Attorney Rose and his assistant the right and proper view the situation They do not take the position that it is reprehensibe for party's ad- herents and for the other They have out, will be prosecuted and the spring wi undoubtedly wit interesting developments in this line.
 In the meantime would be entirely fitting those people who supporting the former governor look well before they lear either print the face of pubic opinion Tie voters O. Arizona and of county exceeding jealous of lheir rights polling booth and when fraud has been either practical attempted they may be expected demanCs that il; be exposed punished. It does matter, or ir should be put under the. ban of the law.

Leo Ballard, an employee of Nor enci bakery. while going to his home in that town, some nights ago, got in the road of bullet meant for an es- caping Mexican bootlegger. The shot hit him in the leg and will lay him up for several weeks. The man who did the shooting was Deputy Sheriff Geo. Hill of Greenlee county. He had ar rested a Mexican for boOtlesging and was taking him to jail when the Mex ican pushed him over a concrete wall Hill, upon regaining his feet, fired at the running man. It was at this june ture that Ballard came into view and in time to receive the business end of the lead pellets.
 Frank Mrek, a farmer near Globe, has been arrested by Gila county au thorities, charged with the murder of Joe Rogic, another resident of the same region. Mrek was arrested as a result of a chain of circumstances which would appear to connect the arrested man with the murder. which was particularly brutal. Mrek alleges that he can prove an absolute alibi when the proper time comes.

Contrary to general belief, especial ly among Hunt Democrats, Governor Tom Campbell will make no recess appointments until after the guberna- torial contest is completed, unless that affair is dragged over a long peri cd of months. After the state senate refused to confirm several of Cover nor Campbells appointments the Hunt supporters liberally forcssted that. once the legislature was over, the De Facto Governor would appoint many to office. This. according to the governors announcement is far from the truth.

NO FOOTBALL AT VALE
 IN THE COMING FALL
Blue Schedule Has Been Entirely Can
 celied.

Yale's football schedule for the coming fall has been entirely cancell- ed. The usual list of games was ar ranged last January and there has been some delay in formally writing to Yale's rivals and asking, in view of the war situation, whether the games can not be given up. Only two of Yale's opponents, Princeton and Harvard, have taken similar action.
 Yale has not yet received formal re- sponse from either Harvard or Prince ton relative to it's proposal that fresh man games to be played this fall Yale plans to arrange a light schedule for the 1921 eleven and would be glad to close it with a game against Harvard and one against it's Princeton class ri Vals.
 Prof Robert Corwin, chairman of the Yale board of athletic control, has just returned from Boston, where he met Dean Briggs, who holds the sini lar position at Harvard. and the ath- Briggs appeared informally to be game with Yale, but Harvard's official action on the matter, like that of Yale, will wholly depend on the military sit nation when college opens in Septem Der.
 It is taken for granted, among Yale undergraduates. that western colleges will vote at the Washington confer ence August to continue intercolle- giate athletics this fall. This, how ever, will not effect the Yale stand that athletic sports will be kept en- tirely subservient to military needs till the close of the war.

This afternoon. the reorganizeo fSiv- erview Club will play the fast Ath- letics of South Manchester at the Hospital. The Athletics have one of the fastest teams in the state and To- cal fans will remember them for the two desperate battles they gave the Hospital team last year. Siple, who has cleaned up everything that has faced him in the state this year, will twirl for the visitors.
 Baseball has been dead and to all practical purposes buried In Norwich this year, but 1t is hoped that Chase & Co. at the Hospital have resurrect- ed the course and are prepared to will not drive fans away in disgust For this reason the performance of the local team today will be eagerly watched by all dyed-in the-wool fans Chase has gathered a team that on paper, at least, looks like a winner Enot and Horigan will be on tho mound and Chase will don the padded mitt Ray Counihan of the Academy will hold down the initial sack while La Stanley will cover the keystone bag. Dugas and Mckay, who will cover short and third respectively are too well known to local fans to need further mention. Ray Wheeler, the hard-hittfng warrior from Norwich Town will be in left field with Ben Houlihan, his fellow townsman, in centre. Cobb, who is .reputed to be as good as his namesake, will be in the right garden. Luke Riley will call the game at g o'clock sharp.

 When the strictest economy in the use of bread and flour was urged by royal proclamation during a critical period of the Napoleonic struggle The officers of the lst Royal Lancs shire militia, then stationed at TyIemoutn, appear to have set a fine example in patriotic self-denial According co a contemporary account they not only gave up eating bread. but consumed no flour in any form whatever.

in the meantime it's transport will be threatened by the increased mum Der and greater power of the German sub marines. Hence 1t is argued in the familiar way that the United States is really arming, not against Germany, but for the next war''-against Japan. From this the Frankfurter Zeitung pro- ceeds to the assertion that by the adoption of conscription the United States, like England, has justified the pure doctrines of German militarism. Changing it's course once more, the Frankfurter Zeitung says that the Americans would never have gone to war If they had thought that tAey would have to fight; they have, it seems, been deceived just like the un- happy men and youths of England;" who never guessed that their own blood would flow on the Somme and the Scarpe." The end of the whole matter is, if course, that Germany is unmoved by the American decision, although "in the hope of securing a future peace she welcomes the victory of the German idea of universal mili- tary service for every people"

The term tommy for bread is still used with a certain amount of freedom in these days, and not alone in the army. The docker is, for one, well ac- quainted with it. Another term that he makes use of is "to5e." which has also a wider meaning to cover food generally, and is associated with prison fare as we'll We have, however, never heard it used in these senses, but only with reference to bread, which has, as might be expected, quite a number of slang words associated with it.
