Italian Pamphlet Effective.

One OF the most effective pamphlets
used in the campaign comes from Italy.
Ii is entitled Let Us Economic" Ten
aphorisms. called golden by the British
pamphlet. They are:
81 He that wasteth today will be
hungry tomorrow.
"2. He that wastes in his own house
increases the price of his neighbor's
dinner"
"3 If your neighbor throws away
four ounces of bread he will reduce the
food of your children"
a. Wasted material belongs to no
one; it might have belonged to all"
IS. If could have what the Italian
nation wastes in one day I should be
rich for life.''
IS The mother of a family who does
not economize today is taking tomor-
rows bread out of the mouths of her
children"
"7. The man who looks after his own
interests and economies in his expen-
ditures is an altruist."
IS. The man who laughs at you to-
day for saving will envy you tomor-
row."
49, The belly is a greater cause of
poverty than the sword
10. Don't grumble; produce more"
The pamphlet concludes: Although
one may be rich, he has no need to
stuff himself as If he were a turkey
being fattened for Christmas"

British Children Enlisted.

For the first time in the war the children
of Britain are fully enlisted in aid Of vic
tory The ministry of food, with the con-
currence of the London county council, is
teaching the lesson that in order to con-
quer old and young must economize. 1t
Is found that the children In the ele-
mentary schools bear the question of
food shortage in mind and are heroic In
their efforts to avoid waste. A panel
of some eighty speakers has been en-
rolled to instruct children in food econ
omy. They address pupils between the
ages of nine and fourteen. The pupils
take notes during the addresses and the
best essays on the subject discussed are
sent to the ministry Of food. where they
are read. stamped and returned to the
writers. with words of criticism and ap-
probation by the speakers.
The main idea of the ministry officials
Is not to tell the children to eat less but
TO eat slowly. and thus preserve health
and conserve food.

Six important Units of German

NEW GOVERNMENT CRISIS

By the Associated Press.
LONDON. October 12-The mac
tivity of the German fleet in the Baltic
sea recently when there were obvious
opportunities for attacking Russia
according to dispatch to the Daily
Chronicle from Amsterdam, was due to
the mutinous outbreak in the German
navy.
The outbreak affected at least six
important units of the fleet, putting
them out of action and causing the
authorities TO doubt the discipline and
loyalty of the crews of other large
ships.
1t was impossible. the dispatch ADDS.
to take stern measures on q large scale
against the offenders. because that
would have increased the evil.

RICHARD OLNEY.

Dying in his eighty year, Richard Olney of Massachusetts had rounded out long career in which he gained distinction as lawyer, statesman and citizen. During the second Administration of President Cleveland he was for two years Attorney General and for the remainder of the term Secretary of State. In both of these positions he exhibited qualities of mind and purpose that gave him high rank among American statesmen.
 Notwithstanding MT. Olneys eminent ser vices at Washington, it is probable that his pub lie usefulness in private life was even more pronounced. He held no office after leaving the State Department in 1897, but from that time almost to the hour of his death he exert ed a powerful influence in behalf of good gov ernment and correct principles Always a Democrat in politics, he was first of all far seeing and devoted American and was so recog- nized even by party opponents.
 Outliving MT. Cleveland and most of the men conspicuous in his time, MT. Olney wit messed and contributed to the remarkable change of popular sentiment in regard to that great President. The second Cleveland ad- ministration did much to prepare the Repub- lie for the issues, domestic and foreign, which now confront it, and no one contributed more to these ends than Richard Olney

THE FIRST IMPORTANT DUTY.

The first important duty for patriotic Arizonans to fulfill in the present crisis is to give aid to the work of securing enlistments to fill the ranks of the First Arizona Infantry regiment which is ir need of more than one thousand young men to bring 1t up to full war strength. This regiment is in danger of being mustered out entirely unless new volun- teers are forthcoming.
 Many of the members of this regiment have refused to take the required federal oath which would bring them into the federal ser vice. If they continue this refusal they will be stricken from the rolls and then only skele- ton of regiment will remain. Governor Campbell has pointed out the urgent necessi- ty for bringing new men into the Arizona regl- ment, if its identity is to be preserved. The loss of this regiment at time like this when the country is facing danger would go abroad as no credit to Arizona and would bring our loyalty and willingness to stand by the flag in the hour of need into question:
 It may happen that the safety of the bor- der homes and property must rest on the na- tional guards of the border and other west ern states; it will if the regular trained sol diers now here are needed for service in the other parts of the country. Surely Arizona citizens would desire, in that case, that the state should be found with full ranks and re- quired equipment for doing full share of this duty.
 It is time for stirring up the citizens of Arizona to duty now confronting them. The First Arizona regiment will be lost unless 1t is filled to war strength. The Governor of the state is pleading for an extension of time in which to secure enlistments for the local guards and every citizen of Arizona should feel duty bound to assist now in the work of saving the Arizona regiment If it is to be preserved there is no time to be lost Time for action is now

LABOR IN THE WAR

The recommendation of Samuel Gompers Chairman of the Labor Committee of the Coun- cil of National Defense, that employers and employees be advised not ''to take advantage of the country's necessity to change existing standards virtually pledges the American Federation of Labor, as the great railroad or ders already committed, to the national service during the war in their respective call ings.
 An attitude so patriotic commands re- spect also for the advice that departures from laws standards affecting the health of la borers or hours of labor shall be taken only upon declaration of the council that ''such de- parture is essential for the effective pursuit of the national defense.''
 The possibility that relaxation of labor or health laws may become necessary is fore seen; but Chairman Gompers is right in in- sisting that this step shall not be taken except in emergency. The careful investigations of the British Government into conditions of la- bor and fatigue affecting munition-workers have proved that nothing is gained in the long run by excessive hours; that much is lost by unfavorable sanitary surroundings.

KIN GDON GOES ID EXTENSION AS
 MANAGER
Leaving the Greene Cananea Where He Has Been for Four Years-Successor Has Not Yet Been Announced by President Mills.

George Kingdom, who succeeded James Douglas, as manager of the Cananea Consolidated Copper con- pany two years ago, will leave that company this week and go to Jerome where he accepted the position of general manager of the United Verde Extension on April 1. It was learned today that MT. Kingdom ten dered his resignation of the Cananea company last December, but has re- mained in charge until he could be relieved.
 MT. Kingdom and secretary George Young, of the Cananea company were in Douglas last Sunday, coming there to meet President c. E. Mills. who came from the Inspiration and went to Cananea with MT. Kingdom. It-is expected that in the near future MT. Mills will announce the successor of MT. Kingdom.
 George Kingdom has been in the western mining game since 1883. His first appearance in Arizona was at I Tombstone, but soon after that he went to the Globe district and was employed in the early work of that district and for long time was min ing foreman for the Old Dominion Later he left Globe and went to New Mexico for few years and then come to Bisbee where he was engaged for GO nr~o1 INxy &ho When J. s. Douglas was made general manager of the Moctezuma Copper company at Nacozari Kingdom went to Nacozari as mining foreman and held that position for seven years. Then he was tra nsferred to the Old Domi1.- ion at Globe where he was made gen. eral manager. The position, he held until J. $ Douglas was put in charge at Cananea as general manager, going there and taking charge of the mining department.
 MT. Kingdom was one of the original men who joined J. S. Douglas in the acquisition Of the Little Daisy proper ty at Jerome and made a careful ex- anlnatiun of the property before the deal was c'osed. He has a large acquintance in Arizona and has all ways been ptpular in Douglas. His friends will wish him success at Je- rome, where he becomes identified with a property which gives promise of becoming one of the great future producers of rich copper.
 George Kingdom becomes superin- tendent of the United Verde Extension when that property is treading right on the heels of the United Verde, the first mine of the district, as a copper producer.

He has been creator of indus try in the best of ways, overcoming the ob- staces of the desert, solving difficult prob lems in practical operation, and establishing new trunk lines of communication.

GUBERNAToRIAL CONTEST.

The decision of Judge Stanford to elimin- ate from the judicial count all the ballots cast in Snowflake precinct in Navajo county be- cause it was proven that irregularities had oc- cured there during the voting leaves the gub- ernatorial contest in this state far from a con- clusion. This is the second precinct that has been thrown out by Judge Stanford. The first to go in the discard was Douglas precinct No. 1 and in that precinct the evidence taken in connection with the condition of the ballots showed fraud. From the evidence submitted in the Snowflake precinct it was made plain that there had been irregularities, but it was not disclosed that there any fraud. This decision of Judge Stanford will no doubt result in future elections being more carefully conduct ed than they were in some of the precincts in the state last fall
 The attorneys for Governor Campbell have served notice of intention to attack sev- eral other precincts in the state where they claim they prove the same Irregularities oc- cured as charged and proven at Snow flake.
 With the Douglas precinct and the Snow flake precinct out of the count it is believed that Geo. w. P. Hunt now has majority which would give him the office of governor should there be no other precincts eliminated; if other precincts successfully attacked then the re- suit is only in doubt, as we presume that attacks for irregularities will be two-handed game and when side gets behind then new precincts will be brought into court.
 Thus there is no seeing the end of the con- test and it may require several months yet to conclude the work of submitting the testimony relied on for the elimination of other precincts. In the meantime Tom Campbell will continue to serve the state de facto governor until a decision of court deprives him of the posi- tion and reinstates the old governor.
