REMARKABLE ILLUSTRATION Of WAY
FAKE MINING PROMOTER WORKS

PHOENIX, Ariz., Oct. ga re-
markable illustration of the creative
mind of the fake mining promoter has
just been made public here in the
form of a pamphlet, copies of which
have been received by the corpora
tion commission. The booklet, which
is issued for the purpose of inducing
the public to purchase shares in the
Red Metal Copper company of Ari-
zona, is replete with misinformation
regarding the investment laws of this
state, to say nothing of some of the
most remarkable claims ever put for
ward in behalf of any mining prospect.
The writer of the booklet, c. w. Lit
tlefield, of Remington, Ind, after de-
scribing the claims owned by the com
pany, declares they lie astride one of
the best copper drifts in the state of
Arizona. A shaft has been sunk on
the property, he says, disclosing cop
per ore running from 40 to go per
cent, with gold values ranging from
S. to $12O a ton. But" declares the
writer, 'we are not satisfied with this,
we are after the big fish that lies 100
feet below the bottom of our shaft.
We are unable to determine the thick
ness of this strata, but the tests we
have made and the opinion of experts
all agree that the quantity is so great
that it could not be removed in a
thousand years. Farther on in the
booklet the writer declares that the
company has copper enough in sight
to supply the entire United States for
twenty-five years!

According to the writer of the book
let, the company is forbidden by the
state law of Arizona to expend any
money until there has been enough
collected ''to insure the success of the
enterprise" This law, he states. is
the result of wildcatting in the early
days.
The property referred to in the
booklet is in northern Yuma county,
yet the writer declares that "as an
illustration, the Little Daisy mine, To-
Gated close to ours, only three years
ago their stock went begging at 10
cents per share, and as soon as they
struck the big body of ore, which lays
at the 325 level, their stock jumped
to $48 a share" The mine referred
to is, of course, the United Verde Ex-
tension, at Jerome, almost 200 miles
distant.
Inasmuch as this booklet is being
circulated in Indiana, West Virginia
and other eastern states, and in view
of the fact that the company's stock
selling permit has expired, the corpo-
ration commission is at loss as to
how to proceed to obtain the convic-
tion of the promoter. The pamphlet

ASKS LEAVE TO
KILL HIS ENEMY
Clifton Journal)

This week Judge J. M. Lally of
Morenci was approached of Primitive
Gomez, resident by the hill city, who
asked the judge for permission to go
and kill Andres Villanueva, whom he
declared had been insulting to his
wife. He said he had decided some
time ago to kill the man, but did not
want to get in trouble with the law,
so thought he had better get leave
first, so there would be no bad con-
sequences. The judge explained to
him that the hunting season does not
open yet for a month, but said that if
he could prove that Vallanueva was
a predatory animal, that possibly the
hunting laws would be waived and
the county might be induced to offer
a bounty.
The next day Judge Lally received
the following letter from Gomez, ex-
planning the circumstances of the
case, which clearly prove that he is
entitled to the succor he asks:

of my house.

dition of embarrass.
My wife she has been scare to dead,
but if was at time she was in danger
to die. in my proper defence / done
my duty.
Now I wait for Justice for one or
other way.
Yours, very truly,

ARE NOW
MEXICO'S PROBLEM

Bandits now constitute the main
of foodstuffs and finance also need
ing attention, according to a recent
statement of President Carranza to a
committee of the Mexican chamber of
deputies. In discussing conditions in
Mexico, President Carranza said:
"The government is confronted with
no political or military PROBLEMS.
Villa has scattered his forces. Zapata
remains the same problem as always,
but Felix Diaz never has caused ap-
prehension to the government.
Real Problem Facing Government
"The real problem facing the gov
ernment is that of providing ample
guarantees to society against bandit
ISM, This has increased with the COM
ing of constitutional order, which
gives the bandits greater advantages
than are possessed by the troops pur-
suing them. Consequently, recon-
mend to congress that personal guar
antees be suspended so far as these
enemies of the government and Of
public order are concerned.
Negotiations with United States
I'm International relations friend
ship is maintained with the whole
world. Only with the United States
are frequent negotiations pending be-
cause this country has prohibited the
expectation of metal, and because the
funds of Mexico deposited there can
only be paid in paper, which, owing
to the difference of exchange, creates
balance unfavorable to Mexico. But
up to this date in every instance these
negotiations have resulted favorably
and it is probable that a general
treaty on this matter will be con-
cluded"
Balance of Trade in Gold
1t has already been announced that
an arrangement had been made by
which the balance of trade due Mex
leo would be allowed to be sent from
the United States in gold with the
understanding that Mexico should re-
move her embargo on the expectation
of metal
Ell Universal one of the largest
newspapers in Mexico, commenting on
the presidents statements, says
Feeling of Lack of Confidence
cit is not to be doubted that a gen.
eral feeling of lack of confidence has
arisen over the economic situation
and that a dreary prospect has arisen
before many eyes, perhaps because of
a scarcity of foodstuffs and lack of
financial resources. Consequently, in
congress, as well as in political and
intellectual centers, it is felt that the
best manner of settling this problem
would be to find the proper bearings
of ourselves in regard to our foreign
relations, and it is hoped that the ex-
ecutive or congress will act to this
end"

An1uSen1entS
The Strand,

The worlds history offers an ex-
traordinary and wonderful example
for the twentieth century woman in
Joan of Arc, the patron saint of
France, according to Miss Geraldine
Farrar. The famous Metropolitan
opera prima donna has just COM
pIeted three months work in Cali
fornia acting the role of Joan of.
Arc in q massive motion picture
produced under the direction of
Cecil B. DeMiIle and entitled Joan
the Woman. 1t will be shown at the
Strand theater, commencing Wednes-
day and running till Saturday.
Joan of Arc lived five hundred
years ago, yet the problems she met
and mastered, rising in the end to
achievements to which no other wo-
man either before or after her has
attained, are the problems universal
to women OF all ages" said Miss
Farrar. 1T is not as If another Joan
Of Arc will rise from our midst in
chief of a great nations army, but in
their small way thousands of women
in all parts Of the world are mini
ature Joans.
Joan Of Arc, more than any wo-
man who ever lived, stood for equal
ity and for woman's place in the
world, not only alongside OF man,
but as the leader of man. What
community is there but has its wo-
man leader, its feminine mind that
is more far-seeing than the mascu-
line and more idealistic?"

TAX TICKETS TO
SHOWS nov. |
One-cent Revenue To Be
IMPOSED On Every 10
Cent Admission

One of the first taxes that Fargo
people will pay as the result OF the
passage of the war revenue law OF
1917 on Oct. 3 will be the tax on
tickets for admission to theaters and
other places OF amusement.
Thirty days after the passage OF
the war revenue law, or Nov /, the
theater tax becomes effective, man
ayers of Fargo theaters were advised
this morning. The act imposes a
revenue Of one cent on every 10
cents or fraction thereof charged for
admission.
Fargo people attending a moving
picture show where the admission
is 10 cents will go to the window, buy
a tisket and before entering the the
alter will apply a one-cent revenue
stamp. IL the admission is is cents,
a two-cent stamp will be required.
Manager e. A. Phillips Of the
noon that full information regarding
the stamp tax, regarding theaters.
had not been received by him. He
was Of the opinion that the tickets
sold at the theater would not be
stamped by the management of the
house but that the patrons of the
theater must do their own sticking.
He thought that revenue stamps
would be placed in his care and
could be purchased with little delay
on the part of the public. He stated
that by the people buying the thea
ter tax stamp there is no way Of
theater arrangements making any
profit from the tax, such as charging
Is cents for a 10-cents admission
