LIBERTY BELL TOLLS
 FOR THE LOAN
(From Wednesdays DaiIy.)

The Liberty Bell in the old Con- tinental hall in Philadelphia tolled a message to American citizens last night. and in every city and town in the union, church bells relayed the message. Tonight, at 9 o'clock, the ceremony will be repeated, and to- morrow night and on until Friday, by which time the limit of time for subscribing to the Liberty Loan shall have passed.
 In Prescott, the Catholic church, only possessor of a bell, tolled its message to the public, in response to a request wired to each telephone manager by Theodore \. Vail, head Of the American Bell Telephone CO.
 Four strokes of the bell were rung last night; three will be rung tonight, two tomorrow night and one the fol- lowing, to typify the number of days left in which to lend to the United States the sinews of war.
 The suggestion was made by the JOurnal-Nliner last night, that the tones of the Liberty Bell in Philadcl- phia, be sent to the various exchanges throughout the country by long dis tance telephone, in order that sub scribers might, in their own homes, hear the famous old bell R. M Buehler, local manager, will put this up to the headquarters today. It is not impossible that this great pub licity stunt will be pulled off, as be- fore now, men in scores of cities, have listened to addresses around the ban quet table in Boston, and other East ern cities.
 The stunt of having the churches all over the United States toll their bells at 9 p. m. each evening, relaying the message of the Liberty Bell, was by Mrs William G. Me Adoo. president of the Woman's Lib- erty Loan committee.

YAVAPAI ROSTER FOR WAR LIST IS 3,466
(From Thursdays Daily.)

Yavapai county registered 3.466 young men for the military draft
 This figure was given out last night, when the county registration board, consisting of Under Sheriff J. II. Robinson, County Physician John w.. Finn and County Recorder Edith Ruffner finished canvassing the re- turns, and made up the summarized report to the State disbursing officer at Phoenix i..
 Of the 3,466 men between the ages of 2l and 90 inclusive, who registered on June ,, the following division is made: White. 2,l3s; colored, 30; ,liens, l,243: alien enemies, $.
 It is not known what the State au- horities assigned to Yavapai as a census estimate of the elisibles, but whatever that figure is, il is thought inc county exceeded it in actual reg stration. Being a county in which .here IS good deal of mining, it is found that the number of young men runs ahead of the normal in com- munities where there is more evenly graded population.
 Iavapai county will have been near " the last to report to the State au- lhorities on its registration. The lat est advices from Phoenix indicated that of the IA counties, only Yavapai and AIbhayc were vet out.

 dishearien the subjects of the kaiser as that of the great money raising machine of Uncle Sam's treasury de partment. What ii the war will take seven or ten or even fifteen billions Ii the American common people contribute that hrst two billion. an answer will have been given to Ger man statements that their newest op- ponents are not heart and soul in this conflict.
 Lots of folks ask themselves why they should lend Uncle Sam their money at g. per cent when they can get 8 per cent from private loans. A .Sl0O bond earns its owner S3.50 in a year. The same amount loaned at 8 per cent brings in s. This means that in loaning to the government, the individual IS actually donating the S45O difference to his Uncle Sam, to boost the war.
 If we do not pay now and pay big. we will pay bigger, later, when q possibly triumphant Germany comes over here with the intention express ed at the outset of the war, of col lecting | forty billion dollar war in demnity from this fat. rich and ease loving nations of traders
 Not everybody in Dr. von Klein Smid's audience had heard of the kindly intention of the kaiser to charge the war to America, but after the speaker had told what he knew, no one doubted that Wilhelm Hohen- zollern was capable of forcibly bor- rowing his war debt from this coun- try, if he could.
 America must enter upon a period of the most intensive production, in order to supply itself, its Allies and the starving nations of Belgium, Ser bia, Poland and Armenia. In 1914, America raised l0H bushels of wheat for each inhabitant This year, with extreme good luck, America will be able to raise 4Il bushels per capita. The first year of the war, America ate its l0II bushels per capita The second, ii raised less than it ate, and had to draw on its reserve and i'm port grain.
 In men. the war presents set of statistics that appal the imagination. Fifty-six millions have been drawn from productive pursuits and put to work destroying and tearing down what civilization has been building up for centuries. In actual battle lines, 39,OO0,00O men are drawn mp, 7,G00,- poo are dead (cnough to populate 2S States the size of Arizona), 20,000O0O are in prison camps and hospitals.
 When this war started, said the speaker, waste in America was mere ly foolish. Now, it is criminal.
 pr. von KleinSmid was introduced to his audience by Judge F. W. Wells. On the platform were in addition. R. x. Fredcricks, Harry w. Heap, Frank Whisman and w. A. Drake, of the Yavapai section of the State Defense Council, under whose auspices the address was given.
