no doubt will have some such provi.
sion.
At the end of the two-year season
in which active training is received
the entrant must have finished the
course. He will be told to go back
to the paths of industry. He will at
once and automatically become a re-
servist and will be given q medal by
the United States government. This
medal will Indicate to everybody that
the Weurer is a r~eServist, has had the
training, and can be depended upon
to defend his flag in any emergency.
That these medals will be much priced
by the wearers is regarded as certain.
During the three years after the
youth has completed his active train
ing it is planned he shall report for
duty and take q week or two Of drill.
This feature of the bill issstill in the
making.
Begin at Nineteen.
It is also undecided exactly when
the lad shall begin. his training, but
the best opinion now favors the nine
teenth year.
1t is estimated that about half a
million young men would be given
training yearly and that at the end of
five years there would be a reserve
force of 100000 trained men.
The idea seems to be to start the
youth in training and complete it be-
fore the age usual for marriage. Then,
if the United States is plunged into
| war, the soldiers who would respond
to call would be the last ones in train
ing, the first reserves, and therefore
the youngest soldiers. This would
make quite impossible the sundering Of
family ties, the taking away from
wife and children of the chief sus-
tainer Of larder and home.
1t is also argued that boys will
train more easily at this age, and
more easily will become Injured to the
life.
1t is rather premature to make an
estimate of cost of universal military
training, but one conservative estimate
is from 500 to $3.50 a year to the man,
or from $50,000,OOO to $7O,OOO,OOO a
year. At present the American gov
eminent is spending about $1OO,000,-
900 on its army. Since the Spanish
American war our military system is
said to have cost the people about
$4,O00,OOO,OOO.

s5 EXTENSION NEW
 COMPANY IN FIELD
Adjoins the e5 Mine in Ne wMexico Transportation Facilities Excel Ient-Ore Runs Rich in Value.

On last Saturday and Sunday l.. D. Mcclure, l.. M. Correll, Dewitt Mu:- ray, L. B. Doane, E. Parque, and Fay Hiatt visited the Virginia mining dis trict near Lordsburg when they gave that section a thorough inspection. The party visited the S5 mine, the Octo, Hecla, Bonny, Misers Chest and the S5 Extension Copper Co.
 The camp is just awaking to it's possibilities and all the mines are in d f1ourishing condition. Tne main producer of the district is the old S5 mine which was the second largest in the state during 1916 and is now making about a million and a half dollars a year for it's owners. They are shipping from veins that aver age 12 feet in width and carries values of S2O per ton.
 The district is cut by well defined veins and dykes running in an east and west and northeast and south west direction, the latter carrying the highest values, some of which run from $40 to S60 per ton full width of vein.
 The S5 Extension Copper company has been recently organized ard con- tains 30 claims of which the Atwood patented group is probably the best known. All the leasers have been | taken off the property and the shaft will be unwatered and a force of men put to work taking out ore about the first of March. The shaft is down BIO feet with drifting on the 75, 200 and 300 foot levels, all in ore which runs from $10 to $20, and high grade streaks which assay $40 to $60. The company is in position for imme diate shipment from the time the shaft is cleared, to a branch of the A. & N. M. running through the property to the old S5 and within 50C feet of the Atwood shaft.
 Since it has been discovered that the values increased with depth, il is the intention of the company to sink the shaft as rapidly as possible This fact has made the S5 mine its largest profits for the past two years They are down $50 feet and arc ROW starting for the next level
 With such favorable conditions il the way of development and railroad facilities and with the amount of orc already blocked out, which with the present price of metals represents over six million dollars, the mine i. not only going to be on a payins basis from the start but will prove { good investment to all it's stockholders
 Plans are under way to thoroughly finance the company and install al the machinery and equipment in ad dition to the 1Ox12 hoist and boilers
 The officers of the company art L B. Doane, President, Globe; L. D Mcclure, vice president, Miami, c c. Fierris, secretary, Miami; Dewitt Murray, treasurer, Miami, and E K Davis, director, Wheeling, w. Va.

 STRIKES ORE

It is reported on good authority that last week the P. D. EX. Cop per Company cut into a body of sul- phide ore and brought to this coun- ty another large mine in the making. The ore was encountered at four hundred and five feet from the portal Of the tunnel being driven on the Carasco group of this company.
 The ore is full of copper glance. The management estimates that the same will average five per cent but no official announcement has been made.
 Numerous parties journeyed out to the scene of the new strike last Sun day and secured samples of the ore. Some of the grab samples are report ed to have run as high as eighteen per cent copper.
 The vein has been penetrated for a distance of seven feet and the drills are still in ore. From the formation and character of the country it is expected that a body Of ore of. considerable size has been encountered. The vein is at present being crosscut. As soon as it has been broken through drifting, sinking and raising on the vein will be con- menced to open up as speedily as pos sible good body of commercial ore. This strike, it is reported, coming as it does in a new part of the dis trict has proved beyond a doubt that the ore bodies extend out to the South and West of Morenci. Ad- joining property is being taken over by some of the local parties inter ested in mining and one new com pany has been launched and it is re ported that several others are form ing
 How the ore will be handled al present the company has not an nounced. A trial shipment of one or two cars may be made in the near future. But the company prefers to block out it's ore before it undertakes anything else.
 At present the workings are open to the public and all who desire car inspect the same, and take their owr samples. There has been a little delay in work during this week due to a breakdown but repairs have fbeen made and the drills are in op eration once more. All so far has been hand work, but the company e1 poets to shortly install a complete set of machinery and greater prog ress will be made.

PUTS UP GOOD DEFENSE

Chas. Owen, the prominent Fl Paso attorney, has been associated this week in the defense of Davis and Spurlock, the train robbers who some time ago robbed a Southern Pacific train in Arizona and were later eX
 tradited from Texas. The trial has been taking place in Tucson and a formidable array of legal talent has been lined up on both sides, and from accounts MT. Owen, although taking but little part in the proceedings, made one of the most eloquent and fnrceful pleas ever heard in a Tucson court. There were very few of the spectators who remained unmoved by the telling words of the brilliant young attorney and the elderly moth CT of one of the defendants was overcome with emotion during the touching appeal to the jury. The ar gument was a most brilliant one from an oratorical standpoint and the telling points were brought out in a masterly manner, which attests to the success of the rising young attorney
 Mrs. Owen was formerly Jennie Brutine1 and spent most of her life
 ill Clifton where she is well known.

CAMP BELL VET0ES THE TAX
 BILL

PHOENIX, Ariz., Feb. 23-Gover nor Campbell reached his first dis agreement with the legislature today when he returned with his disapprov. al a bill eXempting from inheritance tax half the estate of the late Dr. Percival Lowell. That part of his estate consisted of the Lowell Ob- servatory at Flagstaff and a fund set aside for it's maintenance. Another bill mpting the same part of the estate from general taxation was sent back without the governors sigma ture but not with his distinct disap- proval.
 The action of the governor is said to have been taken because of the I construction of the tax commission holding the former bill to be uncon- stitutional. The legislature took no action on the veto today.
 After considering the general ap- propriation bill in executive session | from which all visitors from the gall lery, the attaches finally, the four Republican members of the house were excluded, the Democratic mem- bers of the house reached a compro- mise on the bill and sent it to the enrolling and expressing committee. The controversy ragged about an item containing an annual appropriation of | $1,000,000 for the common schools. The sum of $750,000 was finally agreed upon.
 There are two bills providing a state school fund. One having passed the house and now in the senate pro- vides $35 per capita based on the average daily attendance. If the senate passes that bill the item in the l dropped or greatly modified.
 The senate committee of the whole recommended the passage of the house red light abatement bill by vote of II to S. It passes the anti cigarette bill making it a misdeame ean- or to sell tobacco in any form to youths under the age of 21. The sem ate further amended the bill making it, misdeameanor for youth under that age to purchase or receive to- bacco, so that the possession of a cigar or cigarette would be regarded as prima facie evidence of guilt. The house passed the anti-bootlegging bill making the sale or disposition of li- jquorsa. felony punishable by from two to five years in the penitentiary.
 The following bills were passed in the senate:
 TO adm1t persons other than 1nu1S- ents to county hospitals on payment or part payment for medical or surgi- cal attendance; referendum measure to substitute the contract system for the force account system in work for the state; appropriating $50,000 constructing the approach to the Gila River bridge near Wellton.
 Winsor, of Yuma, introduced a me- morial to the department of war and the interior to prohibit the dammins of the Colorado river below Yuma which, it alleges, constitutes a peril : to the reclaimed lands under the Yuma project and was chiefly respon sible for the destructive flood at Yuma a year ago.

SMALL POX VICTIM.

Smallpox claimed another victim on last Friday when Tim Nardelli, who was stricken with the disease about two weeks ago, passed away at the county pest house. Interment took place Friday evening.
 MT Nardelli was 56 years old and had been in this district for the past 30 years where he had been engaged in business during that time, and at the time of his death he was connected with the Arizona Copper Company, Ltd, at Metcalf. |. He was prominent member of the Italian colony in this district and was considered one of their most substantial members.
 He was engaged in business for several years at different times in Metcalf, Duncan and Carlisle, N M, but most of his activities had been confined to the Clifton-Morenci district. His wife died several years ago and he was recently married again. Besides the widow he leaves ] to mourn his loss three sons and two daughters, Tim, Robert, Antonio, An nie and Angelita, all of whom reside | in this district.
