BOLD HUN BULLY
 HAS YELLOW HEART

What a spectacle of German abase- ment, of the Teutonic readiness to quit under punishment and to cringe in the face of power, was the surren- der of the "war lords" navy off the Firth of Forth!
 The German is an innate craven. Arrogant, brutal and overbearing in success, he cringes in defeat; the typical bully. And like all bullies he is an utterly shameful spectacle when vanquished.
 Whatever satisfaction may be felt over the complete abasement of the Germans, no one not of their breed can fully grasp how men with a na- ton and flag to fight for could yield so crayenly. One understands the contemptous puzzlement of that officer aboard one of the American dreadnaughts who said:
 "Even the poor old Spaniards, knowing they had not chance, came out of Santiago"
 The German is not given to taking chances. The Germans didn't think they were taking chance when they started the war. They thought they simply couldn't lose. Intoxicated with their own self qualification and the conceited flub-dub of their half crazy kaiser, they never conceived a chance of defeat. If they had, they wouldn't have started fighting.-Al- buquerque Herald.

LIVESTOCK AND RANGE
 REPORT FOR ARIZONA

A general storm prevailing over the district Sunday and Monday was ac. companied by rain in the valleys and rain and snow on the higher eleva- tions. Monday morning an average of eight inches of snow lay on the mountain sections of Coconino and Navajo counties, declining to four inches at Grand Canyon and Pinto, east of Holbrook. Over two inches of rain and melted snow fell at Fort Apache, leaving two inches of snow on the ground. Precipitation was not so heavy in the southern counties but the situation has been considerably improved.
 Tanks and water holes have been replenished to some extent in all sec tions and stock are grazing farther fro mtheir usual watering places. From counties adjacent to the Mex ican border considerable number is still being driven to the pasture in Sonora. Shipments to market also continue from nearly all parts of the district.

CHINESE ARE IMMUNE
 FROM INFLUENZA PLAGUE

Not a single Chinaman in the United States has had Spanish influ- enza, according to members of the local Celestial colony.
 That none of the Verde district Chinese have been afflicted with the influenza that has taken toll of every other nationality and race is suscep- tible of easy proof. The Chinese here claim that influenza has not pene- trated to the Oriental quarters of Los Angeles, San Francisco and other cities that have districts where thous- ands of Celestials congregate and live under extremely unsanitary condi- tions.
 In short, the Chinese seem to be immune from influenza. This does not bear out the recently advanced theories of various doctors that the disease originated last year in China, where hundreds of thousands of peo- pie died of some mysterious pneu- monic malady.
 If the Chinese are actually immune it is probable that influenza is a dis ease which existed in that country un- til the race gradually won to complete immunity, as the white race is said to be becoming gradually immune from tuberculosis.--Jerome News.

LePrey, Haute Loire, France,
 Oct. 28-1S. Dear Fred: -.
 Your delicate raison d'etre for send ing bill reminder is received, and Pm coming across. 1 don't just fig ure out your arithmetic on the total but l am not arguing about it-you might stop The Sun from lighting up my busy and sometimes homesick ex- istence, and that would be disastrous.
 I've been over in this mans country ROW for one year and twenty days, and while Pm keen to stay until it's a good job and the Big Cheese is put safely away, still have hankering at times to be in Arizona. It isn't all beer and skillits by any means.
 Just received the sad news tonight of the death by gas of one of my for mer lieutenants, as fine man as they make 'em. He transferred to combat ant troops in June and has been up in it. He was former Yale crew man and football star, former forest sup ervisor, 6 it.. 5 in, an das big of heart and soul as he was of body. That is what makes us want to stay over here forever if need be to put the-- Boches where they belong, where they'll never stink up creation again.
 Thanks for your good letters, and The Sun-you can't realize how much they are appreciated. Things up front seem to be going good-all power to 'em! My four nephews are in it now, one sharpshooter in the marines. Lord, Lord, how, I'd like to get crack at one of the pretzels! Its getting cilly these mornings up here in the nets; reminds me of morh- ing at Mormon Lake or Long Valley in early November.
 Was down in Nitson's dept. recent ly. Saw more cattle than I've seen since I left Arizona. They were all reds and were drifting to the lower country for the winter. It made me real homesick. But the so-called cow boys driving them! On foot! Didn't look natural, though they all did wear wide-brimmed hats! I met a bunch of some 200 (when in a sidecar) in the middle of tunnel 1.2 miles long through which the main highway goes. We had our lights on the ma chine lit and you can imagine the bawling that was going on when 200 head of cattle were being driven through tunnel in the dark 1.2 miles in length. The French don't mind little thing like a mountain when they build road-if they can't get over it easily, why, they'll run the wagon road (not railroad) through it!
 Best to you.
 Sincerely,
 JNO. D. GUTHRIE.

LOUIS DEATH WAS
 GREATLY EXAGGERATED

The friends of Lou Charlebois will be glad to learn that he is alive and enjoying perfect health. With his family he moved from Flagstaff this week, and they are now comfortably located in their Glendale home, which was formerly the residence of Mir. and Mrs. L. Driesbach. One of the reas- ons why MT. Charlebois' friends will be so glad to know this is because of a report that was current here few days ago that he had been a victim of influenza and was brought down from the mountain city and buried in Phoenix on Thursday of last week.

A GOOD OLD TIME.

A schoolmaster once said to his pu- pills, to the boy who would make the best piece of composition in five min- utes on "How to overcome habit" he would give a prize. When the five minutes had expired lad of nine years stood up and said "Well, sir, habit is hard to overcome. If you take off the first letter it does not change 'abit'. If you taken off another letter, you still have a bit left. If you take off still another, the whole of it remains. If you take off another it is not totally used up, all of which goes to show that if you want to get rid of habit you must throw it off altogether" Result--he won it.-Ex.

WEEKLY KANSAS CITY
 STOCK MARKET REPORT

KANSA SCITY STOCK YARDS, Nov. 25.-Catltle receipts were 28,- 900 head, market steady to shade lower, no choice fed steers included. Hog supply was 23,000, market steady to 10 higher at the start, but weak at the finish, top S17.S0. Sheep and lambs today 13,000, market 15 to 25 lower, no choice lambs here, top $l5.
 Beef Cattle Shade Lower.
 Recepits included number of cat tie from Colorado and othere western range states and some big strings of belated Kansas pasture cattle. Short fed steers sell at $14 to SIS, with a very small number good enough to sell up to $19, although some show cattle sold on the open market last week at S20 to $25, full carload at the latter price. Good western range beef steers weighing $50 lbs. and up- wards sell at $14 to $16, lighter steers down to SIP, western grass cows $7.5O to $10.50, canners S5 to S5.75, choice heavy native cows up to SIS, veals $11 to $13.75. Receipts of cattle and calves here last week az gregated 101 ,000 head, but the supply will be materially smaller each week from now on with good prospects for sellers.
 Stockers and Feeders Some Higher.
 Kansas and Oklahoma wheat fields are making fine growth and many cattle went out to them in the last week. Feeders are little higher at $lO to $13.50, stockers steady to 30 cents lower at $6.50 to SIP, with nose of .Lo .on-a yaa rl;pnc and fyynS coll ing at $9 to $10.50.
 Hogs Go 10 Higher. --.
 Receipts last week were 1O4,OOO head as compared with 5S,0OO same week last year, yet prices closed the week 10 to 15 higher. The liberal supply today opened steady to 10 higher, best medium weights up to $17.S0, heavy hogs $17.75, lights ST. 65, but the close was very weak and bulk of sales ranged from $17.20 to $17.65. Stock pigs sell at $12.50 to $14, which is a very attractive price when compared with values of fat hogs. New rulings by Food Adminis- tration authorities last week made in an effort to reduce the movement to market out all hogs weighing under 15O lbs. outside of the price limit reg ulations forcing them to sell without the protection of the price limit; also all hogs destined for Chicago or east ern markets must secure permit be- fore they can be loaded. Western markets had good runs today but Chi cago was light.
 Sheep and Lambs Decline.
 Prices have declined 50 cents since the middle of last week, best lambs worth s15.25, though the top today was $15. Fat ewes brought S9 today, but salesmen say they can be good enough to bring S9.50. cars of 65 lbs. Arizona heavy hided feeding lambs sold at S14 today, eve lambs selling up to S16.

PUNISHING THE NEWSPAPERS.

With the growth of independent sentiment among newspapers and magazines there has arisen a desire on the part of some politicians to pun ish that independence by curtailing some of the privileges of the press, adding to their expense by means of increased postage, cutting off their source of revenue by means of legis- lation, and, during this war, imposing restrictions with regard to freedom of expression which are hardly defensi- ble.
 Nationally this punishment was di- rected at the large magazines, which were growing too powerful and in- fluential to suit the democratic lead CTS. It took the form of a zone pos tai law, which will tend eventually to restrict the circulation of these mag azines to the immediate vicinity of their place of publication-in short, to make them provincial instead of national. ....
 This law does not affect the fi- nances of the country newspaper to any great extent, though it makes tfie publisher trouble enough to cause him to wish that the authors of the law had to do the clerical work which it involves, and receive as compensation the postage which the country papers pay the postoffice department, which is infinitesimal compared with the work involved.
 The recent republican landslide was no doubt due largely to the attitude of the independent press of the nation, which has been largely alienated from the support of the democrats by the methods of the leaders of the party.-Clifton Mining Journal.

The rest he intend ed to spend before coming back.
