HUNT MAY ENTER
 RACE FOR GOVERNOR

PHOENIX, July 26.-The race fer the Democratic nomination for gov ernor is on in earnest with Fred T. Coulter, Democratic National Com mitteemen and Sidney P. Osborn in the lead. w. A Moeur, state land commissioner, has announced that he is not candidate but he Is the dark hLIsc who is bothering both -oulter anu Osborn, boil. of w1@on. ha,.' already made several tours of the state in the intere 5: If ,l..i: re si eo!re c ndidacies.

 There is growing sentim, Tt allong the Democrats in favor of the r"~ n.ina1;Cn of Former .i)reIn"r T ''Wobbly' P. Hunt, to give him his latest r:cLB LBame Those friends, who enjoyed Cffce under the governor, are making a drive for him to 'come back They are telling him that he owes it to himself to seek vindica- tion at the polls and restoration to the office of which he was robbed by the courts
 It is believed that Osborn will re- tire and run again for secretary of State if Hunt gets back in the race for governor. Coulter is in to stay, having already spent considerable money OF his campaign and opened headquarters.
 The campaign is going to be a long one Some Democrats are ad- mitting that neither Coulter nor Os- born nor even Hunt will stand the slightest show against Tom Campbell. who is making popular executive and are trying to persuade Carl Hay den to rescue the party. Hayden is turning deaf ear to their pleadings, having definitely determined to stand for Congress again next year and make the race for the Democratic nomination for the Senate in 1920.

WAGE LAW IN
 ARIZONA NOW EFFECTIVE

PHOENIX- minimum wage law prescribing not less than S10 a week for women and girls em- ployed in stores, laundries and con- mercial establishments, became eff fective today. When permanent injunction restraining the secretary of state from placing the measure on the referendum ballot was granted by Judge Stanford, of the superior court of Maricopa county. Attorn- eys for the Merchants and Manufac- turers' association, of Phoenix, which with the Business Mems Protective association of Tucson, brought out a referendum against the bill, admitted that the evidence showed that the signatures to many of the petitions had been obtained by fraud and with drew all objections to making the injunction permanent. Warrants for the arrest of a score of persons, who circulated the petitions and de- liberately forged names to the refer endum petitions are being prepared :. The Merchants and Manufacturers association has announced through it's attorneys that it will do every thing in its power to prosecute and convict those who secured signatures uleSdily.
 The motion to make the injunction, which they had been opposing per manent, was made by attorneys for the Merchants and Manufacturers association shortly after noon, thus ending the case. They filed a state ment with the court to the effect that the referendum petition. against the law had been undertaken in good faith , for the reason that the merchants and manufacturers believed the new 1 law inequita ble and difficult of ap. | plication.
 i The evidence introduced however
 the statement set forth, satisfies us that some of the persons who were employed to circulate these petitions deliberately violated the law in their anxiety to obtain signatures. The statement closes by saying that while technically the referendum might still prevail, the association did not desire to benefit by petitions which were fraudulently signed.

For two years bear stories have been coming out of Germany that were calculated to encourage the allies Frcm various sources re- liable and otherwise, came reports that the Germans were starving, that they short of cotton and copper, that their man power wasting away, that the people about to rebel. But still the days, explained by the weeks and commanded by the months drift by and Germany fercely and effectively prosecutes the war. German troops still hold their long battle lines practically intact; German guns still belch defiance; German energy is still un- impaired; German submarines still imperil the commerce and sea transportation of the world. Only smashing victory the battle field by the allies will bring about desirable peace. Americans had just as well prepare for all the sacrifices necessary before this blow can be de- livered. Then. and not till then will the Prus- sans really and truly talk a peace that Eng land and France andAmerica can accept. It may not be until the fall of 1918 that thismili- tary blow will fall upon the Hindenburg arm ies. But be sure it viii have to fall before the masses of tine German people, well the Jun<ers. will consent to peace without vic tory.

A SMALL BUT PERPLEx1NG PROBLEM

The most pefpleXlng though not the most important problem that has been presented to the government, is the disposition of the mem bers of the I. w. w. who were deported by the Sheriff and posse of Bsbee. The deportation was accomplished by the exercise of legal au- thority the only authority in the state with power to assert itself, that of the sheriff of Co., chise county. Had tue governor disapproved of the deportation, he could not have given eff feet to his dsapproval. The force which is or dnarily behind the governor the national guard has been taken away and IS under the sole control of the federal government.
 Sheriff Wheeler "passed the buck" to the national government by hurriedly removing the l. w. w. from his jurisdiction, and the gov ernment finds them its hands without know ing what to do with them. It cannot turn these undesirables lo,se upon the community where they now are. Fl Paso, the nearest large town has put up the bars against the |. W. w. and practically every town in the west would resent their entrance.
 If there is any place on earth where they would have shadow of right to go 1t is to Bisbee But without declaring martial law and undertaking to protect them, if the government would send them back to Bisbee let them follow any inclination they might have to go back 1t would be responsible for the bloodshed that would surely follow, and would precipitate another period of idleness in that great camp.
 The government, even if it was disposed to declare martial law, would not have good excuse for doing The local, regular ly constituted authorities of Cochise county have restored order in their own way and have proved themselves capable of maintaining it. Cochise county is asking nothing of the federal authorities. It has made Ishmaeites of the l. W. W. who have now no abiding place and it has put upon the government the dual responsibility for their protection and their conduct

When he found he was caught he braced his foot against :he shaft and the string of his muckluk was wound around the shafting pulling his foot in.
 Bound hand and foot with his parka caught in the set-screw and his right foot wrapped around the shaft. he was thrown over and his left leg forced up gainst the revolving saw which hacked and chewed a. it along d six inch surface until it severed it. The flesh above where the actual dis memberment took place was dread fully lacerated with the veins and ar- teries twisted up together entirely stopping the flow of blood. This fac. saved Brown from bleeding to death, as he bled but very little oa the trip to Candle.
