Enriching City Treasury.

Sunday morning Officer Gard
ner picked up three drunken
Mexicans, and one of them had
a pint of whisky on his person.
He was taken to Holbrook charg-
ed with illegally having liquor
in his possession, and the other
two were arraigned before Judge
Sampson and drew the usual
capital prize Of $25 each.
Sunday evening Gardner picked
up another drunk, and Monday
morning Judge Sampson handed
him the usual dose for such a
complaint $25.
The first victim under the new
automobile ordinance was Coun-
Gilman Gillard, who forgot to
park his car on the right side of
the street. Judge Sampson tack
ed on a fine of S. as a burr to
quicken the memory.

Winslow Laundry Sold.

Last week Mr.. I. Niethammer
closed a deal whereby he became
proprietor of the Winslow steam
laundry, and took charge of the
business at once, thereby becom-
ing the official "washee" for this
community. Mr.. Howe, who has
been managing the plant for the
past two years, will still continue
in the same capacity. Under
the direction of the new prop~ie-
tor there is no reason why the
the laundry should not develope
into one of the best in the state,
as it is fully equipped with all
the latest machinery. and Mr..
has the necessary
and business ability.

Miners Strike at Jerome.

The threatened strike of the
miners at the Jerome camp is
now on in full force, and the
sheriff of Yavapai county has
notified the Governor that he will
need the assistance of the state
IN maintaining order. The ad-
mlnlstration at Washington has
taken cognizance Of the labor
trouble and has appointed John
Mcbride as emmissary to 90 to
the scene and attempt to adjust
matters satisfactorily to both
sides of the controversy. The
strike IS called for the purpose of
forcing the recognition of the
Federation of Miners, all other
demands having been granted
by the mine owners.
Tuesday evening one of the
miners who refused to quit work
was killed, as also was one of
the guards in the employ of the
company, while two others were
seriously if not fatally injured.
Among the strikers are MANY
Austrians and Hungarians, and
there is now a strong suspicion
that the strike is being directed
by German sympathizers for the
purpose of crippling copper pro-
duction for this government so
badly needed in the war prepara-
tons. The Verde mine has a
contract with the government to
take their total output. The sus-
picion that some outside influence
is working in this matter is
strengthened by the fact that
emissaries have visited all the
copper mines in the state in an
effort to get the strike, without
the heads of the miners organi-
zation knowing anything about
any dissatisfaction with labor
conditions, The administration
at Washington has sent agents
to Jerome to investigate the sit
uation, and if they find any
disloyalty to the government
existing the alien enemies in the
camp will probably be deported,
or placed under arrest and prose
cuted.

Winslow People in Danger.

A deadly cyclone in Illinois
swept over the towns of Mattoon,
Charleston and Ashmore last Sat-
urday afternoon, and when news
reached here there was consider
able anxiety for the safety of
some WinsloW people who were
visiting those places. Mrs. N.
I. Roach is visiting her parents
at Charleston, but a telegram re-
ceived by her husband Sunday
brought the glad tldings that she
and all her people had escaped.
Miss Stella Briggs, one of our
teachers, is spending her vaca-
cation with her people at the
same place. She escaped injury,
but her brothers wife was killed.
Miss Hackley, another teach
ers is spending the summer with
her people at Mattoon, but no
word has been received from her
as yet. w. G. Kelly has sister
living in the town of Ashmore,
but the storm at this place was
not so bad, as no persons are re-
ported killed. At Mattoon and
Charleston over 100 people lost
their lives and hundreds were in
jured, and the property damage
is estimated at over 81, 900, 900.

Registration Day.

Next Tuesday, June 5th, is the
day set apart when every male
inhabitant in the United States
who has reached the age of 21
and not yet passed his 31st birth
day must register under the new
conscription law. 1t makes no
difference as to your physical
condition, whether you are arm
less, legless, deaf. dumb or
blind, you will have to register.
All aliens, including the Japa-
nese, Chinese and Mexicans, will
also have to register. If you do
not have a registration card in
your possession after June 5th
you will be arrested and prose-
cuted by the government. You
will be taking only a fools chance
in trying to evade your duty.
The registratio on places in Win
slow will be at the old town hall
on Kinsley avenue before Tom
Seegar; at the city council cham
ber before City Clerk Grocer; and
at the north grammar school be-
fore Supt. G. E. Cornelius.
Local registrars have been ask
ed by some citizens to register
them prior to June 5th, as they
expect to be absent on that date,
but under the instructions local
registering officers have no such
authority. If person knows he
is going to be absent from his
usual place of residence on June
9th, he must make application
for registration before Miss Dee
Moss, county recorder at Hol-
brook, who is the acting secre-
tary of the registration board.

Telephone System Sold.

The Winslow telephone system,
which'has been owned and operat-
ed for so many years by A. j..
Henderson, was this week sold
to W. G. Cooley, president of the
Rio Grand Valley Bank & Trust
Co. of Ell Paso.. Mr.. Cooley and
the new manager were expected
to arrive in the city last evening
to take over the property, and
we understand it is the intention
of the new owners to immediate
ly expend several thousand dol
lars in making needed improve
ments in the system to keep pace
with the growing business. One
of the first changes that will be
appreciated by the public will be
the removal of the central office
to some location in the business
section of the city.
The sale was made on account
of the Health of both Mr.. and
Mrs. Henderson, who found the
increasing responsibilities alto
gether too arduous and confning
for them. and they felt as though
they were entitled to a few years
rest. They will continue to make
their home in Winslow.

Sore Toe Exposed.

/ In the last issue of Dunbar's
/ Weekly the editor exposes to the
public the real seat of the trouble
in the bitter contest over the
/ governorship. Heretofore it was
supposed the contest was waged
for the triumph Of the principle of
right, and to retain as governor
Mr., Hunt, who was supposed to
t.be the friend of the great common
people, but now that the contest
has been decided in favor of Gov.
ECampbell, Mr.. Dunbar calls at
tention to the fact that the seat
ing Of that gentleman robs about
llOO democrats of places on the
state payroll and the $500, 900
that heretofore has been drawn
down yearly by the faithful must
now go to the hated republicans.
And to this wall of distress Mr..
Dunbar adds the additional in
formation that this enormous
brigade of republican office-hold-
ers will be turned loose in Ari-
zona as a Campbell political ma
chine. From the silence of Dun
bar on the point we are naturally
led to believe that when these
100 positions were held by dem
Iocrats they were all patriots to
their state, prompted only by
lofty motives in holding the jobs,
and never once dreamed of band
ing together as a political ma
chine to further the interests of
democracy in Arizona. If we
mistake not the defeat of Mr..
Hunt for Governor was brought
about largely by the fact that he
had surrounded himself with a
horde of these grating office
holders who had formed a politi-
cal oligarchy, and no man could
aspire to be a candidate on the
democratic ticket in this state
Until ne had the seal of approval
from the gang. This was clear
ly proven in the case of S. w.
Proctor, who was bumped out of
the race last fall for Corporation
Commission in favor of A. A.
Belts, who had the endorsement
of the office-holders trust. There
was no pretense that Mr.. Proc
tor was not eminently qualified
for the position, but he was not
a member Of the political corpor-
alton that had the power to dis
pense the offices.
1t is possible that the republi-
can appointees of Gov. Campbell
will continue to be republicans,
and will naturally support that
party in all campaigns, but we
doubt very much that they will
band themselves together as die
tators as to what particular in
dividuals shall aspire to a public
office. They will hardly make
the same mistake as the demo-
Gratis, but if they should attempt
it, the days of republican suprem-
acy will be very limited. Office
holders are servants of the peo-
pie and not their masters, and
while the people are slow to act,
when once aroused their power
is mighty, and political machines
are soon put in the scrap pile
where they rightly belong.

Red Cross Chapter.

The Winslow Red Cross Chapter
was regularly organized last
Thursday evening, according to
the mandate from the head
authorities, electing DR.. j. L.
= Pritchard, president; Rev. J. M.
White, vice president; Mrs. ]. L.
Hughes, secretary; Chas. Fair
field, treasurer; and a board of
directors of seven members. A
governing board of thirty-fve
business men was also selected,
as also a chairman for each of
the several committees provided
in the work of the Red Cross
Society. The Winslow Chapter
will have jurisdiction over Navajo
and Apache counties, and it is
hoped before long that thriving
auxiliary chapters will be estab-
lished in every town in both
counties.
Springerville and Eager, en-
terprising towns in the southern
Apache county, are the first
towns to apply to Winslow Chap
ter for authority to organize a
branch to include both towns.
The requested authority has been
granted as it is realized that the
people of that community are
energetic enough to effect an
active organization, and what is
more important, to keep it going.

of sending their work to Phoenix
or some other outside town, the
benefits accruing to Phoenix by
business men patronizing their
