K GOVERNOR HUNT
 TO GLOBE TODAY
 AS CONC|u|ATOR

A truce between the miners and op- orators of Arizona until the end of the war will be urged by Former Governor George w. r. Hunt when he gets to Globe. which probably will be Satur day morning.
 This was a statement made last night by Mir. Hunt to The Arizona Re publican after he verified a statement he had made some time before to the Associated Press which was as fol- lows:
 That if he (Mr Hunt) goes to Globe he will urge upon the men that this is not a proper time to insist upon their demands of recognition of their union and will appeal to their patriotism not to attempt to tie up a great industry upon which the nation is dependent at this time of need
 That statement is true,' declared MT. Hunt last night. AS conciliator in this trouble I shall endeavor to get the representatives of the miners and operators together and then to appeal to both sides to bring an immediate end to this agitation. We should all be patriotic and put aside all personal wishes until a time when the nation is at peace. I would have a truce de- clared until the war is over We are in this war to win and that can be done only by all working together. After the turmoil is over, there will be plenty of time to adjust whatever diff ferences there are between the miners and operators.
 q probably will leave for Globe Fri day night" added MT Hunt. T could gain nothing by leaving tomorrow morning as 1 would not reach Globe until night. I understand the troops will reach there at 9 o'clock tonight After the turmoil is settled down ant the people are calm will be the time for the miners and operators to get together and declare a peace for the duration of the war"

Of 121 men arrested in Rockford during the arti-draft disturbances there, IF were sentenced to serve one year and day in the Chicago house of correction two escaped with 30-day sentences, one with 60 days and another with 90 days.
 Court attaches said it was because the prisoners would live under more rigorous conditions in the Chicago cor rective institution that they were sen tenced there rather than to the federal penitentiary.

Article,

1t is believed that after the war is
over lithographic stone Quarried In
Kentucky may be put on the mar
ket as cheaply as the Bavarian stone
which has been the principal source
Of supply for a long time. Small
quantities Of the Kentucky stone have
been sold already, but the high cost Of
labor in this country and the difficulty
of working the stone have kept 1t out
OF serious competition with the foreign
product.
The European stone occurs in thin
layers, which require little but planning
and polishing after being removed
from the quarry. The American stone
Is In beds from three to ten feet thick
and must be sawed into thin layers be-
fore 1t Is ready for use.
The Bavarian quarries have been
worked SO long that vast piles of waste
have accumulated that must be moved
from time to time, thus adding to the
cost of production. The American
quarries have found a market for the
crushed refuse from their quarries.
and this by-product helps reduce the
cost.
