A great deal of work has already been done in this state and in some last three years. Since the campaign was begun great areas have been cleared of destructive animals to the great saving of the stockmen.
 Hunters are employed, organized and instructed by men trained in the work. All are paid salaries and are forbidden to accept bounties in any form from stockmen or states. The hides of the animals killed by them are turned over to the government From this source last year, $35,00O was turned into the fund for the SUD. port of this work.
 An illustration of the results to stockmen is shown in the effect of the campaign in New Mexico. More than 400 wolves were destroyed and 11S mountain lions, beside coyotes According to the estimates agreed upon, by stockmen as to the destruc. tive capacity of the various animals there was more than a million dollars saved the stockmen of that region for the ensuing year.
 The work of the survey in the United States is divided into nine districts. The western district, con. sisting of the Pacific coast states, the intermountain states and Texas, is under the direction of Dr. Fisher. Tn three of these states. Washington Nevada, and Utah, the survey works in cooperation of the states, all of which make appropriations to suple
 ment those of the federal govern
 ment. Dr. Fisher is hopeful that the legislature of ToyaS Ariznna Nau,
 Mexico and Wyoming may provide
 for the cooperation of those states

s5O PER HEAD
 FUR OBSERVERS

Rewards have been placed on the heads of all army deserters under the seIective conscription act.
 If an effort to round up all per sons who are delinquent in reporting for military service, the United States government has offered re- ward. of $50 for the delivery of each deserter at the nearest army camp.
 All persons are asked to individu- ally assist in this great drive. Civilians as well as city, county, state and federal officers are quail fled to arrest men of this status and the rewards will be paid to the per sons making the arrest.
 The proclamation of reward was announced this week in telegram by Col. Fred g. Breen from Provost Marshal General Crowder at Wash ington. This is the first step taken by the government since the draft regulations became operative to cause the arrest of those men who have failed to respond to the sum- mons of local boards.
 In the reward proclamation, Pro vost Marshal General Crowder de fines an army deserter under the selective draft as follows:
 "A person who fails to report to his local board for military service at the time specified in his order to report is a deserter. A person who fails to report for military ser vice to the adiutant general of the state by the date specified in the order of the adiutant general to said persons is a deserter.
 If. after such persons are brought 10 a military authority it appears to the military authority that their de linouency is not wilful. they will be forwarded to mobilization camp and their local board will be given credit.
 'If it apDes-s that the delinouercy was wiIlfu' they will be prosecuted before court o1artjal as deserters Tn either case the reward Is payabie.'' v
 Where arrests are made. however. the men must be delivered to the nearest army camp before the reward is n9vab'e. Persons arrested in I'hoAriv and vicinity would arcording lv be delivered +o the miiita-v a1- tbori'V at Dorglas. Persons making arrests will he required to pay all eXpenses for transportation Of the deeerter as well as self to the army camn.
 Y is probable that local boards. to properly assist individuals and off cers in making arrests, will post. from day to day. corrected lists of ali desecters from the county. In this way, it is thought, the work can be carried forward in a rapid man. ner

LABOR COMMISSION W|LLREACHPHOEN|X
 0N THURSDAY EVE.

Headed by Secretary of Labor Will son, the special governpent labor in vestigating commission of ten mem bers will arrive in Phoenix Thursday evening to take up their work in an effort to settle labor difficulties iu this state.
 The commission. will he. met by John Mcbride, special labor concillia- tor appointed by President Wilson several months ago, and Malcolm Fraser, representing Governor Thos. r. Campbell.

 Four such transcripts have been prepared, dealing with strikes in the Globe Miami district, the Jerome district, the Bisbee district and the Ciifion-Morenci district. These transcripts will be distributed to the commission as a matter of record.
 Arrangements have also been com" pleted whereby the commission will have ready access to ail flies in the governors office touching on the ia DOT difficulties. These files are also arranged in chronological order so that the commission can refer to them during the review of the transcripts.
 1t is probable that long confer ence with the governor and Concillia- tor Mcbride will follow the review of tie transcripts of record.
 No arrangements have yet been completed, it is stated. for the en- tertainment of the commission dur ing it's stay in Phoenix. Thase plans will be announced later.

NEW COPPER PRICE HAS STAb|L|z|NG
 EFFECT IN STATE

BISBEE, Ariz., Sept. 29.-FiNing of the price of copper for the next four months by the government at l 23 1-2 cents has had a stabilizing ef. i feet throughout the state, according 1 to reports received here, except in Jerome. In that district agitators. following the lead of an outside labor disturber who has advanced the proposal that inasmuch as silver is now high and copper low, the cop per operators should be compelled to base their wages upon the price Of silver instead of their chief product, are endeavoring to bring about de- nIand for a basic wage of $5 the day with copyper at 13 cents and an advance of 25 cents the day for every cent of advance in the price or copper.
 With copper fixed at g 12 cents, the wage under the plan of the Jer- one agitators would be $7 50 the day fer miners, or $1 50 more than the highest wage paid in the state at the top of the copper metal market, above 20 cents.
 Operators Will Pay.
 Gopher producers have announced tbat they will pay the 25 cent metal wage scale to all employees, notwith- standing. the fact that producers will receive hut 23 1-2 cents in New York. which means that Ariz0nu pt,-"r'rS will actually get for thei: copper less than g: cents. after dedu jag frci"ht ! charges to New York and selling commissions.
