DEPORTAT|ONS IN
WARREN DISTRICT
NO LONGER POLICY
Governor of Arizona Tells Sec
tary Of Labor That Sheriff
Wheeler Will Observe Law
Implicitly,

San Francisco, Calf, Nov. 23.-As-
surances that illegal practices will not
in future be resorted to in dealing
with industrial troubles in Arizona
were given Secretary of Labor Will
liam w. Wilson, chairman of the fed
eral mediation commission, in a let
ter he received today from Governor
Thomas A. Campbell of Arizona. The
letter is q reply to communication
from Secretary Wilson, dated Novem-
Der 6, in which he said that on the
commissions s wisit to the Warren min
ing district it found practices which
you have heretofore declared Illegal
still existing" and 1.-The effects Of the
deportations of July IL are still felt. :"
He said it was necessary for the COM
mission to deal with that aspect of the
situation and that the commission
would shortly make report to Presi-
dent Wilson on the deportation.
Replying to Secretary Wilson, Gov
ernor Campbell said:
II am sure that Sheriff Wheeler
will fully live up to the assurances he
has given and that strict observance of
the requirements of law will be ad-
hered to by him and other officials
of Cochise county.
II am in thorough agreement with
the contention that all executive off
GERS of county and state must act in
strict accordance with the laws"
A telegram was received from Pres
ident Wilson by secretary Wilson to-
day, thanking the commission for the
settlement made of the controversy be-
tween the Pacific Telephone and Tele-
graph company and it's employees.

COUNTER REVOLUTION
ONLY HOPE OF SLAVS

Washington, Nov. 23.-Officials OF
this government regard the Bolshe-
Wiki move for an armistice between
Russia and her enemies and the open
ing of immediate peace negotiations
as an act that would place Russia al
most in the list of unfriendly nations.
Press dispatches telling of the
peace movement were confirmed by a
cablegram from Ambassador Francis
received today at the state depart
ment 1t said that Leon Trotzky. ma
tional commissioner for foreign af
fairs in the Bolsheviki government
had sent formal notification to dip
lomats at Petrograd that his govern
ment had proposed an armistice with
3 view to immediate peace negotia
tions.
Ambassador Francis has been given
no Instructions to deal with the Boil
sheviki government. In reporting to
the state edepartment on the peace
move he made it clear that he had not
formally acknowledged receipt of the
Trotzky note. He said he had been
advised that the soviet congress had
adopted a resolution instructing gen
erals at the front to enter into nego-
tiations at once with the German
commanders relative to three
months armistice,, with instructions
to report to the congress.
Reports that Russia was seeking
peace created apprehension in officia
circles and every dispatch from Pet
rograd was analyzed with the hope
that some promise might be found
that Russia would continue the fight
Ambassador Francis's dispatch dated
November 81, apparently dspelleo
any hope of strengthening of Rus
sia's resistance unless the Bolsheviki
government should be quickly over
thrown by counter-revolution

Although ii had been stated pre-
viously that none of the facts brought

public during the trial, large part
OF Attorney Uterhart's opening state

When the lad was not returned to

she might obtain possession of him.
He reached the climax of his ad-
dress when he declared:
She saw peculiar look come over

departments, meeting last night to dis
cuss the Interpretation of the consti-

British Army Headquarters in
France, Nov. 23.-The British and the
German forces last night rested on
their arms along most of the new
battle front after three days of de-
tcrmined conflict. Hard local fight
ing continued at some points, notably
In the vicinity of CreveCoeur, Moeu-
vres and Bourbon wood, but for the
most part the British were engaged in
consolidating their work and the
Germans gave little trouble in the
way of counter-attacks.
1t appears that the British early
today drove back the enemy at an ele-
walton just west of Moeuvres known
as Tadpole copse. This hill dominates
a large section Of the Canal du Nord
running east of ,Moeuvres and to a
large extent the village itself which
still is in German hands.
No Change at Fontaine.
There has been no change at Fon-
taine, where the Germans yesterday
delivered a heavy counter attack and
compelled the British to withdraw
from the village to a position a little
south of it, The fighting at Fontaine
was at close quarters and particularly
bitter.
This morning the Germans in the
eastern part of Crevecoeur village
were maintaining an intense ma
chine gun fire against the British in
its western environs.
Airplanes Are Active.
Rain fell last night and today dense,
low hanging clouds were letting down
la steady drizzle which made aerial
observations very difficult Notwith-
standing this handicap both the Brit
ish and the German airmen were OPP
Grating at exceedingly low attitudes
aloong the battle line. The enemy's
airplanes were especially active in the
region of Bourbon wood.
No announcement has been made of
the amount of material captured by
the British but great quantities of
war stores are strewn over the battle
area and among the booty are numer-
Gus guns.
The total of prisoners so far counted
SUI remains somewhere between
5000 and 5000

DANCING IN RoUMANIl.



The Roumanian peasants have a say
Ing that they must dance on Sunday to
keen the creak out OF their bones on
Monday. Most Of the dances are at
the public houses-dance halls under

and old gather there. The old folk
spend the day with the tipple. while
the young ones dance. There is very
little drinking on any other day Of the
week. and a tipsy man except on Sun.
day Is seldom seen.
The dances are organized by the boys
Of the community. They arrange for
