the United States at this time.
 Globe has been bettered by your patriotic mass meetings. The show ing made here proves that the peo- pie are awakened to a realization of the fact that we are at war. It shows better, feeling than that which was demonstrated three years ago when hundreds of men marched in a parade without one Amercian flag in sight,, but where every tenth man had a red flag flying in the breeze The showing of the patriot. ic people at the mass meetings has demonstrated to the unpatriotic, if there are any, that they must keeI quiet for safety. It has shown that the people are in mood which makes unloyal acts dangerous fol the trouble-breeder.
 AS an official of the railroads can say that we stand ready to hell in any way possible in this crisis.

r1OVAL A. SMITH RETURNS
 TO ARIZONA TO REMAIN

Hoval A. Smith, who came to Ari- zona about the time of the appear ance of the Calumet & Arizona Min ing company in the Warren district and connected with this company, is port goes further and says that it is the intention of MT. Smith to remain permanently here in the future. Re gently, it is said, he sold what is known as the Rough Rider group of mines in the Warren district to the Phelps Dodge corporation for hand some sum. f'ns1
 MT. Smith while a resident of Ari- zona several years ago became very prominent in politics and was ever regarded as one of the best political organizers in the state. It was he that conducted the famous campaign in 1908, from his offices at Bakers vile, and which resulted in the only defeat ever encountered by Marcus A. Smith. s- -7z1
 During his former residence in Ari- zona he accumulated a number of profitable property holdings in the state, including mining claims in the Warren district and mining property in the Globe district, where he spent large amount of money in the de velopment of the Live Oak claims, afterwards sold to the Inspiration com pany. He also improved the War ren ranch which is today reported to be a good paying proposition, though for several years it did not show profit.

Every member of the committee ap- pointed at the organization meeting of the assembly must do his duty. As chairman of the committee on transportation, I am hurrying through certain work which I must finish in order that I can devote my time to this task of gathering data and forming practical plans for the rapid mobilizing of our rolling stock.
 T will learn from each division head on all of the railroads in the state just what rolling stock is gen. erally or hand. How much can be moved in week, in day and in an hour. I will lay this information out | in a chart like train sheet and when the time for immediate action comes we will know exactly what we can ldo.
 'The displaying of flags on the automobiles and over the stores and building is fine thing. It shows the proper spirit but it is far more important that the people of Arizo ma and of all the United States learn to conserve our food supply. We must learn to economize. The man who goes out and raises an extra ton of food stuff is doing as valuable work as the man who shoulders g gun. It is not essential that he wear flag while he raises this ertra croI but the man who carries the flag is not so apt to double the price of his food stuff The man with the flag is more likely to be the chap who

ECONOMIC PHASE Is SERIOUS SAYS
 RANDOLPH
By Phil Norton.

MT. Epes Randolph, president of the Arizona Eastern Railroad com pany and president of the Southern Pacific company in Mexico, is a pa- triotic American. He is thinker and a doer. His views on industrial and economic conditions in the Unit ed States are particularly interest ing at this time. Recently during a discussion of present conditions in this country. President Randolph made certain statements which he later granted me permission to as- semble for publication. When men of his calibre which makes railroad heads express such serious views of our present food problem, the farm CTS of the country must awaken to a realization of their duty to their American countrymen and to our al lies across the sea. -'s -.--.f
