AJO VISITED BY
 ANOTHER BAD FIRE
Special to The Republican)

AJO, Ariz., June 2S-A fire starting in the Stag cafe in Clarkston at an early hour this morning caused a loss estimated at five thousand dollars in which the Stag cafe and the Japanese laundry adjoining were totally de- stroyed. The Smith Furniture com pany building suffered a loss of the plate glass front and awning, though the entire stock of furniture escaped injury.
 Within a few moments after the alarm was sounded the volunteer fire department responded and the heroic work of the Luke brothers, C. W. Gil- pin, John Phillips and Sam Clark, aided by nearly every man in the town who could respond saved the eastern erd of the town from being wiped out

proof was forthcoming on the screen at the Scala theater that a section at least of the United States fleet had arrived in British waters. A great shout went up when the first glimpse of the six destroyers, faintly outlined far away down on the horizona, was caught by the spectators assembled there. Later we were privileged to make their closer acquaintance and to see them steaming ahead at full speed, gallantly conveyed by a number of our own vesse S, which had sailed forth to meet them, and there, as may be imagined, a rousing welcome awaited the newcomers as they took up their position alongside the wharf Next we saw the crews getting things into sb D. shape order.

s,.'MINNESOTA,S GRAIN INVESTIGATION

MU7TERlNGS IN GERMANY

There are numerous indications that things are not
going smoothly at home for the German autocracy.
Enough facts have filtered through the German censor
ship to show that throughout the empire there IL a strong
and growing sentiment of impotence with the rightly
of Hohenzollern rule. That sentiment, ~ . matter Of
fact. has long been known to exist. In addition to the
very general demand for a larger measure Of popular
government. a sentiment which the government has never
been able entirely to suppress. there has been the resent
ment throughout southern Germany at the subordination
of the entire country to the domination Of a small group
of Prussian aristocrats.
In the tension which attended the earlier stages Of
tho war these domestic matters were overlooked for q
time. But now they are coming more and more into evil
dence. There are renewed demands for franchise re-
forms. and the chancellor is roundly scored by a number
of papers for his neglect Of this subject. Here and there,
too. are evidences Of the outcropptng Of the old resent
ment against Prussian dictatorship. And, when. in spite
Of all the care that is exercised, and tho stern measures
that are taken to prevent articles unweicome to the gov
eminent from Newspaper publication, we may be assured
that the feeling behind such expressions Is very strong.
Tho Russian revolution has also stimulated demo-
cratic thought in Germany. In many quarters the ques-
ton is being asked IF Russians can have popular govern
ment. why not Germans?' Such things do not tend to
add to the peace Of mind Of the German government.

HEROIC, BUT EFFECTIVE

Alexander Bannwart, a MASSACHUSETTS man who was
suffering from an attack of pacidsm of a peculiarly often
stve and distressing sort. has been cured.
Mr.. Bannwart is the man who, when he could not
prevail on Senator Lodge to accept his opinions and point
Of view. addressed the senator in an insulting manner and
struck at him. Senator Lodge promptly knocked him
down. demonstrating that the blue blood of New England
has several red corpusoles in II, after all. Bannwart was
roughly handled by some Of the bystanders. and spent the
night in jail.
But Mr.. Bannwart has seen a new light. On the day
following his adventure he announced that he had been
reading the presidents message, and that he now looked
at matters differently. He went to the peace headquart-
the president.
The course Of treatment which produced this marked
change was heroic. but 1t was effective. There are other
cases In which it might be tried. When a man conducts
himself as MI. Bannwart did, knock him down, and then
make him read the presidents message. Tho treatment
may work wonders.
