Circus Performance.

Cooper Bros circus gave per-
formance in Parker Monday, their
tent having been pitched on East
California avenue. The affair had
been duly advertised and was ac-
cordingly we'll patronized The
trained ponies, dogs, elephant, mon
keys and burros performed their re-
spective parts with cleverness and
agility, and the daring feats per-
formed on the tight-rope and trapese
were very good. After the regular
show an exhibition of the "hoochie-
coochie" dance was given but this
was for gentlemen only" so no
ungentlemanly person was present
except, of course, the dancers.
On the whole, the circus was a
very creditable affair-above the
average.

The West Prepared.

American copper producers did
a very practical act of patriotism
the past week in agreeing to care for
Uncle Sans war needs on a peace
basis. The west is patriotic to the
core. The United States govern
ment is to get 45O,00O,OOO pounds
of copper it will need during the
coming twelve-month at about
16 2-3 cents a pound when the metal
market is clamoring to pay more
than twice that price. And the ma
ton may be sure that the producers
of tungsten, lead, zinc, oil and every
other product of the great Rocky
Mountain country will be a unit in
extending to Uncle Sam the fullest
measure of support.
To a great extent the west is free
from the foreign-born element which
the thickly populated sections of the
country must contend with. The
western miner, with few exceptions,
are American born, and in the great
plans for preparedness the mines and
the oil fields will do their share and
then some.

Flavoring Extract Jag.

Having exhausted the available
supply of Jamaica ginger, a quar-
tette of Superior sons of Bacchus
cOrraled the lemon extract market
Tuesday and became so inebriated
as result of drinking the stuff that
it required the services of the entire
police force, and in the instance of
one of the party, an auto truck.
to land the aggregation in the city
Jail. One of the young men was so
badly under the influence of the
poison that he was found soundly
sleeping in the middle of the road
Searching in the rear of a certain
place of business on Main street, the
officers found twenty-seven empty
cartons of the extract and four bot
ties that had not been touched. The
stuff was put up by Schilling in San
Francisco, and the labels on the bot
ties gives the different flavors made
and the amount of alcohol each con
tains. The alcoholic contents runs
from forty to ninety-eight per cent.

Ehrenberg.

A battered, rusty windmill,
A lonely palm by the trail,
And a cluster of crumbling adobes
Remain to tell the tale
Of Ehrenberg by the River.
One time inland mart,
Whence sinuous, plodding pack
Were won't their toll to start.
A wealth of buried romance,
Speaks from each dusty pile;
OF hearts that beat to music,
OF wine and reckless vile
That only wine and music
Bring to the weary eye,
OF someone's little sister
Waiting her turn to die.
But why recall the shadows?
After the desert sand;
An hour of Roman splendor
Than this were scarce as grand.
The throb and the pulse of the city,
The hurry of restless feet;
The steamers vibrant whistle,
The faces expectant you'd meet
Fresh from the trails long trodden.
New to the deserts glare,
These and a thousand home scenes
Each was gathered there.
The tide of commerce has shifted,
The hurrying feet are gone,
The music and wine are wanting,
The river alone flows on.
An idle, rusty windmill,
And an ancient, lonely palm
Look down on dust and ashes
Mid the deserts sultry calm.

Ask Increase in Rates,

WASHINGTON, March 27.-Rail-
roads of the south and southwest to-
day joined eastern and western lines
in requesting the interstate COM
merce commission to amend it's rules
so as to permit a general advance in
freight rates.
Carriers in all sections of the
country are now represented in ap-
plications looking to a general ad-
vance,
In opening the railroads presen-
tation OF the situation, their spokes-
man announced today that advances
on interstate rates will be sought.
President Holden of the Burling-
ton, opened the argument for the
western roads. Mr.. Holden based
his application for an increase in
freight rates on six grounds as fol-
lows:
Increased wages to trainsmen un-
der the AdamsOn law
Increased wages to other en-
ployes,, some already granted with
others likely to follow in the immed-
late future.
Increased cost of locomotive fuel
coal and oil.
Increased cost of materials.
Increases in price of equipment.
Higher taxes"

Several we'll known mine opera
tors have been quietly looking over
property in this district during the
past few days and it is reported that
a deal was closed for the purchase
of the property of the Arizona Rev.

not be confirmed up to the hour of
going to press.
1t is known, however, that en-
gineers have been inspecting the
property recently and that at least

OUR INFERIORITY.

Japan isn't so much impressed with the superiority of our civilization so long as we eat oysters alive!
 Of course, the Japs do some things that we wouldn't do; and in so doing earn the accusing finger of being "in- ferior.'
 But they are ready with a striking defense. We eat slushy animals alive!
 That's sufficient! Everybody in Japan knows it! We're below par! We're in the class of prehistoric peo- pies who ate insects! -. Oh, very we'll! Waiter serve us with a half dozen raw on the shell, with plenty of sauce and pepper, and don't forget the salt.

palace, and giving the "grito" or war cry of Padre Hidalgo, "Viva Mexico" Viva Ia Independence!
 This custom has been observed since Mexico attained her independ-- ence from Spain, with the exception of the years of the Hapsburg usurpation. Through the recent revolutionary disturbances, beginning in 1910, the celebrations of the independence ami versary were continued uninterrupted, although without the pomp and splen- dor of the festivities in years before the country's prolonged civil strife.
 Tomorrow will be the most import ant of the national holidays of Mexico, for it will commemorate the first rev olution against Spanish domination of the Americas, and which, although it lasted II years, was the forerunneI of those movements which later freed Central and South America.

reduced it's death rate from typhoid fully 70 per cent.
 To achieve this desirable result re- quired thorough medical supervision and education. It would not have fol lowed a haphazard health policy, which is as good as none at all.
 Eternal watchfulness in health mat ters and insistence that what is es- sential to insure good health and the minimum of disease must be done un- der all circumstances. is what lowers the death rate.
 Just think of the thousands of peo- pie alive and well in California today who would have been routed in their graves were it not for California's rigid health laws and their enforce ment!
 Looking at it from that light, one comes to the indisputable conclusion that health legislation pays.

THE MINING OF GOLD.

Contrary to the general belief, gold is still mined in paying quantities in the United States; but it is a much slower process than in the "days of '49." It is no longer found in chunks"
 The gold you bought for your best girl may have been mineG in Cali fornia or Alaska.
 There is more gold being mined in South Africa than ever before. The mines there are working full tilt. The result has been that the Value of the preious metal has declined in the world market; for it is evident that the more yellow coal' there is min ed the less it will be worth.
 Before the war South African mine owners restricted production and thus kept up the value of the product; but since the war the need for gold by Great Britain to pay her war debts has brought about a furious effort to mine it at maximum speed.
 The effect can be seen right in Pine Bluff where the high cost of liv ing is as marked as elsewhere. Our currency and that of Europe, being based on gold, naturally depreciates when the gold supply is abundant and you will buy less for your dollar than when the gold on which it is based is worth more. This, of course is not the main factor in the uptrend of prices, but it is a contributing fac tor.

EXPORT LICENSES
 FOR RAW COTTON

The following statement with re- gard to licenses for exports of raw cotton has been issued by the Exports Administrative board:
 In order to relieve congestion and resulting delays in shipments of raw cotton, the director of the bureau of export licenses has been authorized by the Exports Administrative board co waive, until October 1, the require nent of export licenses for raw cot ton destined to Great Britain. Francs. Italy, Japan, or their colonies, pos sessions, and protectorates, and also shipments direct to Russia. The nec- essary information is being given to the various collectors of customs, who will, in cases covered by this ruling. not require export licenses until Co., tober 1.
 All shipments which are covered by railroad b;lls of lading or ocean bills of lading dated October 1 Or later will require licenses. This will give ship pers ample time to file applications for shipments which they may con- template making October 1 or later. There seems to be some lack of understanding on the part of shipper. as to the quickest method of obtaining | licenses, and the bureau therefore wishes to inform shippers as follows: Applit ations for licenses for raw cotton D those countries associate! with us iii the war should be made or application Form AZ. which is very short and simple. Application may cover the applicants proposed ship ments for two months following the date of application. On receipt of this application by the Bureau of Export Licenses, 1435 K street NW., Wash ington, D. C.. license will be granted promptly and will be good ordinarily for 60 days.
 If the applicant is shipping through various ports, such as Galveston, New Orleans, New York, etc., he should make a separate application for the total amount he expects to ship through each port. Shippers can then make the shipments as desired by them at any time during the en- suing 60 days. using for this purpose the "Certificate for partial ship ment," which enables them to make as many shipments under one license as they require. All shippers ar requested to supply themselves with a supply of these "Certificates for par tial shipment" They may be ob- taincd from the Bureau of Ex0ort Licenses, 1435 K street NV, Wash ington, D. C., and are known as Forn, FAB 23.
 I For shipments of raw cotton to all countries other than those assN"ia"n' with us in the war, application Form Al is to be used.
 "Certificates for partial ship~'en" may be used against shipments to all countries, regardless of wheth.r they are for shipments to countries asso ciated with us in the war or not. Ship pers should acquaint themselves witl the forms prepared by the Bureau of Export Licenses and if they find diff ficulty in understanding them. the Bureau of Export Licenses will >be glad to make any explanations neces- sary 0 remove any doubts in the mind of the shipper
