Governor Brands Disloyal
 Band As Unspeakable
 Organization, But De clares Method All Wrong

Though the L W. w is described by Governor Campbell in a letter to the Cochise county authorities as an un- desirable, indefensible and unspeakable organization, the governor declares that the members of this disloyal band must be proceeded against in some other way than that chosen by the citizens league and the sheriff. What step he will take if his recommends tion is not complied with the gOver- nor does not state.
 The letter was addressed and mailed early on Sunday morning to Sheriff Harry C. Wheeler of Cochise, Mayor Erickson of Bisbee and to County At torney J. F. Ross of Cochise The nature of it was withheld until these officials had had time to receive it.
 The letter begins with a recitation of the things the governor had dis covered in the course of a personal investigation at Bisbee and what had been reported to him by Attorney General Jones' The governor finds that the method of calling the strike at Bisbee was unfair: that things were made worse by the preaching of i'm possible doctrines ridiCuling national policies, by intimidation, interference, insult, assault and threats of violence to life and property. constituting an invasion of the constitutional rights of the whole body polite of the district
 This was a situation which, accord ing to Sheriff Wheeler, could be met in no other way than that in which it was met and that if it had not been so met riot and bloodshed would have ensued. Accordingly. the offenders against the public peace and their sYmpathizers were deported. Though their crimes would have warranted their detention in jail, there were not jail facilities for many; therefore. their deportation became d necessity.
 In s1 doing, the governor finds that other constitutional rights were ig- nored and that processes not sane toned by law were employed. Men were denied admission to the district and others were removed from the district by a tribunal which was with out legal jurisdiction. And requests by the governor for a restoration of law ful methods were ignored.
 It is not found that Unnecessary cruelty or hardship were inflicted upon the deported men. Relief for their families has apparently been carried out by the Warren District Relief as sociatiOn in a thorough and compre- hensive manner No case was diseuv cred in which need was not promptly satisfied and should such cases exist, they are due to concealment or stub

Mexican aliens will not have to serve

Mexican aliens will not have to serve in the new national army.
 Everybody but the Mexican aliens themselves seem to understand that, according to the military boards which yesterday were confronted with the problem of getting affidavits from MeXicans, not citizens of the United States hundreds of whom it was re- ported believing they would have to do military service, have left the coun- try for Mexico.
 Dr Lorenzo Boido, president of the Latin Protective league and power among the Mexican people of Phoenix both alien and citizens, was in confer ence yesterday with Captain J. l.. B. Alexander chairman of the military district board of appeal, and two other members of that board.
 The leaving of MeXicans for their native country is going to cripple the cotton industry, it was reported to the board Every effort will be put forth to keep the Mexicans here at least un- til the crops can be harvested, Dr. Boido, who has endeavored to explain the situation to the Mexican aliens, told the board he appealed for assist ance. He said that the MeXicans had been summoned to file affidavits, after being examined and filing their usual exemption papers and that many of them had concluded the United States was going to force them into the war,
