tanning its probable yield, the season

UNAMERICANISM.

~ ertain bodies of parading as trade uniOnists
 have displayed within recent weeks the worst type V of Americanism Rather it is un-Americanism. At a time when the United States is engaged in war these men take advantage of the situation to strike oSensloy tor higher wages But at the bottom of this whole unrest will be found distinct German influence.
 Every man is entitled to receive the highest possible wage for his abors Moreover he is entitled to cooper ate with his brother aborer in bargaining for better wages and better working conditions In other words the union is founded just principles and should be rec ognzed by all employers But it is not carrying out those principles take advantage of the nation in these perous days This statement is borne out by the at ude of real labor unonists Real labor leaders are not nifng the government in the back when it is at war They are supporting President Wilson m hlS hght Tor world freedom
 There should be some of effectively dealing with that class of which represents itself as abor but which is really working under the direction Of our enc mics They are traitors and should be dealt with accord ngly The law defining treason says anyone who g1Ves laid and comfort to our enemy is guilty of treason. If this class of men is not giving laid and comfort to our enemy by interfering with the manufacture of war sup pes what is it doing? They could not properly be class flied as men helping to win the war.

TALK PROSPERITY

instead of assuming ministeral air at funeral, we
 should talk prosperity and forget about supposed hard times and poor business Some have the habit ot dropping their faces and speaking with bated breath and grooming the pessimistS lullaby.
 Just forget it. There Is such thing as hard times in war times With millions of dollars being spent daily for munitions and supplies of all kinds with the highest prices in modern times for all kinds of commodities, with every factory running at capacity and with general at mosphere of prosperity, does look reasonable that the arguments of the pessmist should be taken seriously? In fact it is to laugh when any tells you that Eve going to the demnition bow-wows, bag and baggage"
 The really big business not talking through their hats when they say that they look for the greatest of prosperity this country has seen since the recon structon days following the Civil They unit in asserting that the business and economic structure ot the country is solid and that conditions will adjust them selves to conditions.
 For six months after war was declared by England business was somewhat upset but things began to assume normal proportions and business increased by leaps and bounds Naturally there has been some cer tainty incident to the changed conditions in the United States little furry legislation pending in con gress to meet time emergencies but there no such thing as hard times
 Too many people have looked at the combination of cir cumsances such the usual ul in business and the time furry being the real state of affairs People have got to get accustomed to conditions. But while this transition period us let's take mon sense view of things and be little prophetic and visionary concerning the immediate future Immense sums of money gradually are finding their way into the industrial channels pereang the entire business of the nation and this community will share in this of prosperity already dawning in the east.
 So talk optimism and get that business grOuch out of your system.

 Say stranger, remarked the re- porter, "you ought to stay over here a few days and take in the sights. It would make you weep with joy to be- hold the wonderful opportunities here. Even if the town is not incorporated, she's hummer.
 'Not incorporated" he exclaimed in utter astonishment. "You don't mean
 
 to say you have a bunch of county commissioners running your town government"
 'rYep, that's it. We have some mighty fine roads about the county and some of the biggest mines in the world. Some of these days we're go- ! ing to have a chamber of commerce, too, to tell the world about it.

plainly on the faces of these men and women to whom war has become a personal matter.
 Owing to the numerous changes in plans and personnel of the various units, the local board does not know who will be the next men selected to go or when they will go. The original war department orders called for 30 per cent of the first selectives. Tel egraphic orders changed this, direct ing that only five per cent of the first draft of III men be sent to camp on Sept. 6. Six men were designated by the local board and left last Thurs day night. Whether the next contin- gent will leave Sept. 19 or how many will go then is unknown by the board at this time The board has every thing in readiness and can readily make up the list when the distirct board certifies back those who are in the service. To date p names have been certified back.
 The local board has certified to the district board the names of 13O men for this county's quota of III. A number of appeals have been filed with the district board and these re- make up the list when the district board at Phoenix met the first of this week, but most of the cases are to be passed on at a meeting of the district board next Wednesday. It is .proba- ble that the claims of men from this county will be passed on at that time To date, the district board has shown a disposition to deny nearly all cases denied by the local boards, and to cer- tify back those previously passed by the local boards.

Commission found corrected drafts of the speeches in the police offices.
 Suspicion eventually fell on Malin- owsky. But Lenine ridiculed the as persion that Malinowsky was a spy; and by fresh attacks on the govern ment Malinowsky apparently proved his sincerity. In 1914 he led the ex- treme Left's assault on Prime Mini ster Goremy1in, led it so stormily that he and twenty-one supporters were excluded from the sessions for fort-night. Then Assistant Minister of theInterior Djunkowsky discovered what was already known to his chief that the revolutionist Duma member was a spy and provocateur, and he informed NJ. Rodzianko, speaker of the Duma. He declared, however, that there must be no police scandal. Nal inowsky was allowed to resign his seat. The police continued to pay him his full salary, and he was sent abroad.
 When suspicion again fell on him, his case, was brought before a party court, and he was triumphantly ac- quilted, there being "no proof what ever that he was a police spy. His protector, Lenine, sent the press an indignant denial of the espionage ru- mors. The real truth about Malin- owsky was not known until after the revolution.
 Malinowsky is now at liberty in Germany, and carrying on an active Socialist" propaganda. For abetting his elevation to Duma membership. NJ. Makaroff, formerly Minister or the Interior is to be put on trial.

BURGLAR SAT IN
 RUSSIAN DUMA, RECORDS SHOW

PETROGRAD.-Revelations of the Commission of Enquiry into Abuses of the former Government show that for two years there sat in the Duma, as a respected, influential member, a burglar, police-spy, informer and or ganizer of crime. This member was the prominent Socialist Roman Nal inowsky, friend and protege of the "bolshevik", Lenine whose attempt to overthrow the provisional govern ment are making such a stir.
 Malinowsky's career, according to the commission, began with pocket picking and burglary for which in Moscow he was many times convicted. Fifteen years ago Malinowsly decided to enter politics and became associ- ated with the semi-revolutionary So- cialist party, to whom his criminal record was unknown. He showed such revolutionary fervor that he rapidly advanced; became the friend of the Socialist Nikolai Lenine, who was then living in exile abroad.
 In 1910 the commission discovered Malinowsky began to cooperate with the "Okhrana", or Police Security De partment, using his position with the revolutionaries in order to obtain facts. His plan was to spy and egg on his comrades into demonstrations and political crimes, and then betray them. He was taken on at first at s25 a month; but soon so distinguished himself as spy and informer that he was promoted; and was sent abroad by the police to watch and incite emi- grant revolutionaries. He still kept Lenine's confidence and this enabled him to carry out his police work ef- ficiently.
 For two years Malinowsky steadily rose in favor of the revolutionaries and of the police. In May 1912, he was elected Duma member. Both re- volutionaries and police, unknown to one another, rejoiced. Malinowsky became so valuable that his salary from the police was raised to S25O a month. This with his salary as Duma member, gave him an income of $5OOO year. He drew continued praise for his admirable revolutionary work as Duma member; and reported every thing to the Security Department. His speeches were carefully prepared in advance. Some were written by Lenine, and all were submitted before delivery to the police. The Enquiry

 Three weeks were spent in the jour ney from San Bernardino. Between Kingman and Topock, the little boy became sick, their food ran out and feed for the horses was unobtainable. A week was spent in camping beside the road. Finally they reached King man. Little assistance was obtain able here, owing to the fact that so many people were out of town. A small sum was raised by private con tributions and with this the weary travellers managed to reach Peach Springs. Here one of the horses was stolen and now they are unable tc proceed further.
 Mrs. Reed says she believes an In. dian has stolen the horse. She has endeavored to recover it, but all eff. forts have proved vain. The stoler animal is described as weighing about 500 pounds; has white spot in one eye, but is not entirely blind; has white feet, one front ankle is enlarg. ed; branded X with an apparent blu on the brand which renders the other characters indecipherable; sorrel 1T color, with white streak down hel nose; mane clipped; about 13 years ot age.
 Mrs. Reed writes the Miner that their bedding is very light for the cool nights in the mountains and ire quently she and her little son suffer great hardships, having to crawl un' der the wagon to obtain shelter iron the mountain storms. She does mol ask any assistance, except in trying to recover the stolen horse, which she does not own and eventually will have to pay for, she says. She does mol own the other horse and wagon, con sequently cannot sell the rig and pro ceed on her journey. The case is ap- parently is one of the most pathetic which has come to the attention ot local people in some time.
