Craftsmen Take Action

It was consistently reported during the latter part of the week that there was a movement on foot among mem- bers of locals in Clifton looking to- ward dissolution of the associa- ton with the Mine, Mill and Smell termens Union of the district The different crafts in Clifton are repre- scented hy boilermakers, electricians, machinists, carpenters, painters and are composed almost exclusively of American citizens. It was stated that at d meeting of the carpenters this craft voted not to withdraw from the association with the Mine, Mill and Smeltermen and to continue the strike.
 Outlook Discouragine
 The outlook for an early resum D. tion is not bright. The efforts of the citizens committee have come to naught although resolutions were adopted by the several organizations in the district and placed in their hands agreeing to the arbitration plan proposed through the committee Copies of the resolution adopted in the district were practically the same with the exception that the Metcalf Miners Union stipulated: : udt HC ulSCTlHl lludtlOH De IndQo against the men who left the work on July 1. 1917" The resolution in full adopted at Metcalf is as follows: MetcaIf Miners Union Local No. 3, A. s. of L. p. o. Box No. 98. T Metcalf. Ariz., Sept. 1917. To the Committee of Citizens of
 Clifton, Arizona.
 Whereas. the situation of the Cliff ton-Morenci-Metcalf district has ar. rived to point that neither the en- ployers nor the employees can come to solution of the present contro- versy, therefore be it
 Resolved, that we the members of the Metcalf Miners Union No. 3 of The Arizona State Federation of La nor, offer to arbitrata the differences that exist between the companies and ourselves, and be it further
 Resolved, that a board of three be appointed, one by the President of the United States, one by the Presi- dent of the American Federation of Labor. and one by the Employers. and further resolved: that no dis elimination be made against the men who left the work on July 1st. 1917.
 Respectfully submitted. Metcalf Miners Local No. 3, A. S.

evening. There were many beauti- fully gowned ladies present includ- ing large number from Morenci and Metcalf and the soldier boys will have many pleasant dance numbers to recall while puffing on the old pipe some quiet evening in Camp Funston. The singing of number of national airs by group of those present added a very pleasant tone to the evenings pleasures.
 Au ReVoir
 A final honor paid to the soldier boys came Thursday morning when large gathering of Clifton people assembled at the statainn in the Flat to bid the boys good bye. The boys assembled at the court house at five o'clock and answered to roll call. Harry Goldzier, Forest Andrews and Elisha Burns were not present. Goldzier was left the night before in Lordsburs, Andrews received a transfer to join the Ohio contingent and Burns was in California but was not heard from. Regardless of reason for absence siXty-four men had to go out from Clifton. Three alterhates were therefore forced to go, these men were Walter Ether idge, Charles Spezia, and Willis Stewart.
 At six the march was made to the crossing in Hills Addition, the boys swinging along with comfort bags in their hands. A large gathering was present to give the boys good send off. Many tears were shed by rela- tives present but the boys smiled through it ali and played the part of a soldier tc a man.. Roll was call ed in Clifton for the final time and the boys were then turned over to the gentle mercies of Capt. Brown.
 Everyone has remarked at each gathering where the boys have been present in body about their manly appearance. It is safe to say that in the entire United States not one group of boys will surpass the az gregation sent out from Greenlee county.
 As the train came down the track the boys themselves started cheer ing as they climbed on board the cheer being taken up and continued by those present. The train slowly pulled out with the most precious load it has ever been privileged, to carry and admit waving of hats. handkerchiefs and hands the boys left us soldiers all.

SCHOOL. NOTES.

MT. Umfieet, director of vocal music in the Clifton public schools, presented to the present fourth grade in South Clifton school, the -nictnre, The Singing Lesson, as the prize won by that grade in the musical contest last spring.
 Hon. John Christy gave the high school and departmental students a very interesting and instructive talk Monday morning. His contention from start to finish was for the prac- tical and for more thorouehness in all of the work. His talk was highly appreciated by both students and teachers.

One shot entered the back and ranged upward passing out through the breast. A second shot which was instantly fatal enter ed behind the right ear and fright fully mutilated the left side of the head. After committing the deed the husband evidently stood the rife on the ground and placing his fore head to the muzzle pulled the trig- ger. The wife was lying face down. ward and the body of the husband a short distance away on his back. Coroner Lally at Morenci was noti- fled who summoned a coroner's jury. At the same time Undertaken c.

Another letter was addressed to Sheriff Arthur Slaughter in which the deceased husband set forth his al- legged grievances. This letter has not been given to the public but it is reported to have made incrimihat- in9 accusations against his wife and Sarge Moore. formerly cattle in- spector here and later a deputy sheriff. Whether these accusations are well grounded or not is unknown.
