OF their inspection of East Hall, of
the State Normal school. the ladies
were generous in their praise of con-
ditions found there. Every appoint
ment of the hall was in perfect order
and "as neat as a pin" as one lady
member of the board described it.
OF the hospital, the ladies said condi-
tions there were perhaps as good as
could be expected, taking into ac-
count hat the building is old and not
provided with altogether up-to-date
modern facilities. However. ~cleanli-
ness and orderliness were apparent
and the ladies gave their approval.

SAYS RAILROAD Is DO
ING BEST IT CAN DO

Geo. O. Blake in Ccdaredge West
Slope: II has become a fixed habit
Of western slope people to heap male
dictIons on the d. & r. G.. railroad.
Unfortunately some has been deserved
but We should be ready to give credit
where credit is due. This fab the
road is undoubtedly using every means
to render the best service it can. Much
of its difficulty is due to ourselves.
As we harvest, we rush to market
and insist that the railroad handle
in few weeks our whole years pro-
duction. A railroad can not afford to
have equipment sufficient for this
extraordinary and unreasonable de-
mand, as much of it must remain idle
the rest of the year. The remedy is
storage. Apples, potatoes, onions, and
such things should go from the orch
ard and field to the storehouse to be
prepared and marketed. This will in
sure better prices and prompt trans
portation. So far as this county is
concerned, the peach situation is best
adjusted with stump puller.

NEW STRIKE IN
 85 EXTENS|ON

The S5 Extension Copper company reports a strike this week in the Atwood shaft. L. D. Mcclure, the general manager, while having the old drifts and stoppings cleared run across 7-foot vein of high grade ore on the 140-foot level which will run $50 or better per ton. Two car loads have been broken down into the stope chamber and as soon as the water is lowered on the 210-foot level ore will be chuted into the ore pock- cts and hoisted into the bins ready for loading into the cars to be ship ped to the smelter.
 This will bring around $2,000 per car and at the present time the man. agement is figuring on shipping three or four cars per week. An electric pump is lowering the water and it is expected that before the coming week the mine will be completely un- Watered.
 A directors meeting was held in Lordsburg last week at which J. T. Wakefield and L. M. Correll of Cliff ton were put on the board. Both were enthusiastic over the progress made at the mine and after seeing the ore broken down and in place in the 7-foot vein are convinced that this will be a winner.

SEND REGULAR ARMY TROOPS.

As~to the sentimental value of sending force of American troops to France at once, even if it be only brigade, there can be no question, says the New York World and senti- ment is factor of mighty consequence in war. But such troops should come from the regular army.
 It would be ridiculous for the United States to be represented by undisciplined volunteers who would require six or eight months of train ing before they were fit for the firing line. Food is scarce in France and we have no ship ping to waste in transporting supplies for Am ercan troops who would be useless for anything except show purposes
 We 1t to own national pride to be represented in France by troops who, man for man, can bear their full share of the fighting and who will prove to Europe what the Ameri- can soldier is capable of doing. We must send our best

DEFENSE COUNCIL.

The meeting held this week in Phoenix on the call of Governor Campbell, who designated more than fifty citizens of the state to serve on the state defense council, brought together some of the prominent men of the state, representing every important industry and profession in Arizona. Representatives present from every county. More than forty responded to the call for the meeting sent out by the gov ernor; at least one travelled more than four hundred mics to be present.
 The objects of the meeting of this council were accomplished. They were to bring into ac- ton the citizenship of the state in the work [ making preparation for the full discharge of the duty of this state in supporting the war which is now on with Germany. Hon. Dwight B. Heard was chosen president of the defense council and an executive committee was chosen to assist him in directing the work to be done. Perhaps the most important subcommittee named is the one to consider the means of de- sense of the state and its industries from harm which might be directed against them by an enemy. Capt. John c. Greenway, of Warren was put at the head of this committee.
 Committees were appointed to bring into action every industry in the state in the matter of making preparation for meeting the exigen- cies of war and for the increase of products. A survey of the possibilities for increasing food prospects is an important committee and at the head of this committee Dr. R. V. Won Klein Smid was assigned. It is believed that much can be accomplished in this line.
 This state organization has been formed to place every facility of Arizona in operation for rendering any assistance to the government in carrying on the war with Germany. The com mittees assigned to have charge of the vari- ous features of the work will need the assist ance of everyone in the state and whoever is called on should be prompt in compliance with the request:
