Summer Complaint.

During the hot weather of the summer months some member of almost every family is likely to be troubled with an unnatural looseness of the bowels, and it is of the greatest importance that this be treated promptly, which can only be done when the medi- cine is kept at hand. Mrs. F. F. Scott, Scottsville, N, Y. states, T first used Chamberlain's Collie and Diarrhoea Remedy as much five years ago. At that time 1 had a severe attack of summer com plaint and was suffering intense pain. One dose relieved me. Other members of my family have since used it with like re- suits.

GENTLEMEN SWATTED.

The State Tax Commission soaked the cattlemen to the tune of $29.5 all round for range cat tie for taxable purposes. This is a raise of $4.5O per head. The sheep men got elevated to the ex- tent of $500 per head. While there might have been good grounds for the raise on sheep, the Commission certainly got the wrong dope on cattle. There seems to be no appeal from this assessment.
 It seems that the cattlemen have not much influence with the state officials. Still, the cattle men have company, for the farm CT gets his'n from the assessors also.-Arizona Stockman.

Winslow Mail: What was natur- ally to be expected under the se- lective draft is now being daily realized. A young married man in Los Angeles, without a politi- cal pull or wealthy relatives, has been refused exemption. He filed his claim for exemption on the ground that he had a wife and child dependant on him for sup port. but his claim was denied. He now announces that scores of young married men without any children, but with wealthy infu- ential parents, have been exempt ed, and he will go to jail rather than serve unless these wealthy scions of Los Angeles are compel led to go also. The young man is. right in the attitude he takes, and further the government should investigate into the matter and see where the trouble lies. If this is a war for democracy let the sons of the rich go out and do the fighting just the same as the sons of the poor. If any one is to be exempt it should be the poor man as he depends on his daily labor to earn support fer his family. Young married men who have wealthy parents on one or both sides of the house are not the sole support of their wives by any means, and such should be called into service. Let us have no dis graceful scandals connected with this war.

TAKING THE COWBOYS.

An exchange says: If the gov ernment keeps up its lick in talk ing cowboys off the ranges there won't be enough punchers left soon to round up the saddle horses and old men and young girls will have to do the range riding.
 On one ranch in New Mexico, the owner and every cowboy were taken last week, leaving an outfit with five thousand cattle on the hands of a young wife to handle, unless the owner sells out at a big sacrifice, which he is trying to do.

According to the press dis patches the government is taking drastic steps to suppress labor ag- itations. but why don't it take the same drastic methods against the criminal rich food gamblers and spectators, and the coal mining trusts that are daily robbing the people to gather in war profits? :? The measure of a sufficiency of a wage is not the dollars and cents in the pay envelope, but how far it will go in providing the neces- sites of life, and if the govern ment cannot suppress the rapaci- ty of the criminal rich who are robbing laboring men with war prices for their daily supplies 1t will be a hard matter to success fully suppress labor troubles. If war causes food, clothing and fuel to advance double in price, the same war should cause wages to increase in the same ratio, but any student of political economy knows the war is not the cause; it is the excuse; and the organized bandits of capital have strangle hold on Congress to prevent any interference. -Winslow Mail.

Much has been written of the heroes of the trenches and of the flying service and of the navy, but what of the officers and sea- men of the merchant ships that sail the seas in the teeth of the submarines and hidden mines? Did you know that almost ten thousand of these brave sailors have been lost on British mer- chantmen alone since the war started? Gracious heavens! what a heavy toll of death to those en- gagged in peaceful pursuits. All the naval battles of any one war the world has ever known has not claimed such a death list. The British sailor was never braver than he is today, and his record of heroism extends back into the dim centuries of the past. He goes down to the sea in ships without the panoply and senti- ment and waving banners of war; goes to serve his country just the same as his brother in the Fland- CTS battle line or in the North sea fleet. He must feed the soldiers and bring shells for their guns. The sea is a hazard, even in times of peace, but today it is an insat- fate dragon whose maw is never filled. But the ships sail on, just the same, and unnamed, .unsung heros sail them with a smile on their lips and game, glad glori- ous light in their eyes, in spite of all that the Kaiser and the devil can do to prevent them, -Bisbee Daily Review.

OFFICIAL PAPER OF APACHE COUNTY
AUGUST 30, 1917.
BEGIN AT HOME.

Our government is sending out circulars and bulletins showing how to conserve food and urging everybody to save, eat less and in every way save everything of value that can be eaten.
 This is all right and fine, and people should do this, even if we were not at war, because it is a sin to waste food at any time, when so many people have so lit tie. The government should also see that the waste in the army camps is stopped, for there is the greatest waste of all, if reports are true.
 At Fort Bliss, near Fl Paso, it is reported that enough food goes into Ithe garbage to feed many families, in fact several poor fam flies get much food that they pick out of the garbage that is hauled away. Parties who take the gar bage and swill from Fort Bliss, feed and fatten a large number of hogs on it and this swill is so rich that many of the hogs get indigestion and have to be fed charcoal, etc. At the hog pens, many women and children go over the garbage and select a lot of good food that has been thrown away. They get sacks of good potatoes, cabbage heads, that have never been cut, lettuce. car rots, chunks of bacon and other stuff that they clean and eat.- Arizona Stockman.

 There can be no reason why any reader of this who suffers the tortures of an aching back, the annoyance of urinary disorders, the pains and dangers of kidney ills will fail to heed the word of a resident of this locality who has found relief. The following is convincing proof of merit.
 Rev. Paul F'igueroa, 452 S. Stone Aye, Tucson, Ariz., says: About eight years ago my kid neys were hothering me and it seemed as though the pains in my back would never stop. My kid neys did not act regularly. 1 us- ually felt languid and tired and 1 suffered with frequent headaches. 1 used four boxes of Doan's Kid ney Pills and they permanently cured me. ."
