SHANKS.

MIR. and Mrs. James T. Shanks,
who reside near Centerville, on the
Hawkins and Cummins pike, received
a telegram from the War Department
at Washington, D. c., announcing the
death of their son, Private Luther
Clyde Shanks, who died in France
from wounds received in battle.
Private Shanks had not been in the
service quite six months. He was Sent
to Camp Zachary Taylor, in April,
with the Bourbon county draftees, re-
naming there until June, when he
was sent to Camp Custer, Mich,
where he remained short while.
From there he was sent to Camp
Mills, on Long Island, New York,
where he was stationed until July Fl
when he sailed for overseas duty. He
was twenty-three years of age, and a
member of the Christian church. He
was we'll known throughout the
county, and well liked by all who
knew him. He is survived by his par
ents, Mr.. and Mrs. James T. Shanks,
| one brother, Mr. Stone Shanks, and
| five sisters, Misses Ada and Shade
Shanks, Mrs. Lillian Daugherty, Mrs.
Nellie Brown, and Miss Virginia
| Shanks.
Mr.. Shanks, father of the dead boy
was in some doubt about his sons
fate for sometime, but a letter re-
ceived sometime after the telegram,
from Miss Andrews, a nurse in Base
Hospital No. AZ, where he had been
taken firm the field, confirmed the sad
news of Private Shanks' death.
The body was inferred in the army
cemetery in France, and will be
brought back home at the same time
| others are brought over.

The Thrift Stamp Campaiqn

The third Liberty loan campaign having ended, still have with US the Thrift Stamp and Baby Bond campaign. It is inevitable that should have suffered somewhat from neglect during the last month however energetic and earnest it's managers may have been, and they have been energetic and 
 The campaign was by means allowed to a standstil but in the nature of things, in the louder and hurried appeal for subscrip- tons to Liberty bonds the quieter and modest re- quests for purchases of Thrift Stamps must in many cases, have been unheard.
 It is just essential that the government should have the money designed be raised by the Thrift Stamp campaign as it before any part of the $3O00000,o0O Liberty loan was subscribed It expected that s2O 900 900 would be by sale of Thrift Stamps and that the campaign would last year.
 250,000 of which very small part has been met, though are in the fifth month of the campaign. But going to do better-make of those Garrison finishes which have been characteristic of Arizona in work.
 Again would remind readers that the gov ernment will not be the only the greatest gainer by contributions to the Thrift Stamp fund.- We ourselves will be the chief gathers. If every child in Arizona, or nearly every child should become a creditor of Uncle Sam the generation of Arizona through the habit of Thrift that be established

ing They came back improved much better and more capable for their outing.
 The government appears to have two objects ln view in increasing travelling expenses and reducing travelling facilities. is to leave greater facilities for government transportation and the other is to discourage travelling in order that the people may save more money for the nations needs.
 If these purposes stated clearly We think the people would be more easily reconciled to en- forced changes in their plans. But when it is said to them as in Chicago dispatch yesterday morning that the object is to save money for the railroads the people do not regard that as a suf- ficient
 For instance when told that the cutting off of five continental trains the coast will the roads s12OOOO0O and OO9O00 miles of railroad travel the people naturally wonder why trained and astute railroad managers did not find out this way of saving. If there is virtue in saving 100000 miles of railroad travel by cutting off five trains, why not all the railroad travel in the United States by cutting off all the trains?
 But hope the railroad administration will think better of this proposal to abolish the summer rates especially within Arizona and to nearby coast points. Those who afford to travel will do so even if they have to pay the full rates and then they will have that much less money loan the govern ment

Where the People

Wanted-An Election Precinct
 Iyaa,. 4 4.

Tempe, Ariz., Route 2. Editor of Republican,:
 Some time ago 1 wrote you calling attention, or trying to call attention to the lack of polling places for kyrene voters. Having seen no signs of the surface that the matter has been con- sidered by the board of supervisors, will try again. It may be that the board. remembering it's geography thinks that Kyrene, being outside the Promised Land, deserves no considera- tion, but really, we are American citi- zens and would like the same chance to express our opinion at the polls as the other dwellers in the valley.
 Chandler district was recently sub divided and Kyrene ignored. Yet this great, sub-irrigated, cotton growing district contains thirty-six square miles of territory, practically all farmed, and the High Line to the west, some fourteen square miles more, all dotted with the dwellings of voters, male and female, and not a polling place in it. Now, why?
 We all like to go to Tempe. of course. but it's too far to go and vote and re- turn home without detriment to our work. Look it over Mir. Supervisor, and see if you cannot arrange so that the least and furtherest of us can get to the polls and back in three hours atoot. We will all be much interested Tn the coming election. A full vote is always desirable. Give us a chance.
 Yours truly,

The Abolition of Excursion Rates

Ire elimination Of summer excursion rates pro. posed by the railroad administration would be some thing ot hardship to Arizona which from the ear
 est tlrnes every summer, lost considerable part of its population to the inside that is, to the coast
 great many people have who could not afford to go and great many others have gone when it was not necessary for them to go. There was a tme before electric fans, when ice five cents pound and when there were no summer amusements when there was some excuse for leaving Arizona in the summer months. But of late years one could make himself very comfortable here much more so than he could find himself in small sweltering room in Los Angeles. If he had plenty of money of course there was the homecoming, the facing of grocers that he might have his summer fling; there was also other household furniture that he had pawned that he might have month two on the coast
 To cut off the excursion rates would make matters either better It would add one-third to the cost of transportation, exclusive of the war tax which is ten per cent. That would either keep many of us at home force us to greater expendi- lures. To the average on a vacation his rail- road expenses are only small part of his expenses. Ten or twenty Hive dollars moro or less is a small matter in comparison with the rest of his outlay But to many people the railroad fare is the principal thing Once at their destination they are forced to greater economy than they would have been at home
 The worst thing about this proposal so far as we are concerned. is the proposed striking out of sum- rates within Arizona-Phoenix to Iron Springs Prescott and Flagstaff where people the past have gone at very little expense for comfort rebuild

They were consigned to the Mckee Livestock Commission company and represented the entire cattle holdings of James Anderson, who had a COW range at Buchanan Wells on the road to Flor ence. Anderson has recently decided to engage in sheep raising and placed his cattle for sale in the hands of the Arizona Livestock Commission com pany, of which Johnnie" Moore is the manager.
