The War Service Uniform.

We have the following COM
munication from the government
regarding the wearing by civil
ians of parts of the American
uniform, with a request that we
give it publicity.
Section 125 of the National De-
fense Act approved by Congress
June 3, 1916, reads in part as
follows:
Section 125. Protection of
the uniform. 1t shall be unlaw-
full for any person not an officer
or enlisted man of the United
States Army, Navy, or Marine
Corps. to wear the duly pre-
scribed uniform of the United
States Army, Navy, or Marine
Corps, or any distinctive part of
such uniform, or a uniform any
part of which is similar to a dis
tinctive part of the duly pre-
scribed uniform of the United
States Army. Navy, or Marine
Corps.
"Any person who offends
against the provisions of this
section shall, on conviction, be
punished by a fine not exceeding
$500, or by imprisonment not ex-
ceeding six months, or by both
such fine and Imprisonment"
Any persons violating this law
come under the Jurisdiction of
the Federal Courts.
Many people are wearing parts
of regulation uniforms. Girls
with regulation or very similar
bluejacket jumpers and boys
with regulation bluejacket white
hats are very prominent by their
numbers. These things are being
more strictly investigated now,
and all officers and men author
lied to wear the uniforms are
under orders to report all viola
ton of this law. Many stores
are also selling these goods and
advising their customers that
they can wear them. Those
stores are also violating this law,
and reports are being made daily
that will probably bring some
unsuspecting offenders into the
courts.
am sending this letter to all
editors with the plea that they
put this information into their
columns, both as a protection to
those who are authorized to wear
the uniforms and to those who
are violating the law.

Says Dunbar's Weekly:

Says Dunbar's Weekly: IF
reports are correct that come
back from Camp Kearney of the
doings of some of our state Off
cials on their recent visit, it
would have been better for their
reputation if they had remained
at home.' And these said Off
cials are the democratic office
holders who will be coming before
the people this fall for re-elec-
ton, and be basing their claims
on being the true representa-
tives" of the people. 1t is not
only when they go to Camp
Kearney that their conduct is
disgraceful, as only a few short
weeks ago several of the state
officials were in this city, and
their conduct while here would
land the ordinary citizen in Jail.

The selective draft is very dem
ocratic in it's operation. Harold
Steinfeld, of Tucson, is the twen-
ty-three-year-old son of Albert
Steinfeld, the wealthiest man in
Arizona, and he claimed exemp-
tion on the ground that his busi-
ness acumen was necessary to
handle his fathers extensive
business affairs, but his claim
was rejected by the local board.
Francis Heney, an attorney with
a national reputation, was en-
ployed to appeal from the deci-
sion, and it was fought ali the
way through to the President,
only to be turned down. The
final order has been received to
induct the young man in the SER
vice. Democracy of the people
has been vindicated.

All Dates Cancelled.

The sale advertised by the
ladies altar society for March 23d
has been indefinitely postponed
on account of the quarantine, as
also is the sale to be held by St.
Martha's guild on April I'd.
The workroom of the Red Cross
will be closed until further notice,
and no work will be given out.
The mystic feast Of the Scott
ish Rite, for which invitations
have been sent out to all Master
Masons in the city, that was to
have been held on Maundy Thurs
day has been postponed.
The closing of the pool halls is
handicapping the editor to the
advantage of Bill Kelley. He can
keep on practicing every day,
while we are barred out, which
means we will lose the champion
ship serious.
The quarantine is not without
it's benefits. A lot of US married
men can get acquainted with our
wives.
To be sure you make no mis-
take when voting for a candi-
date at primary it would be
well to look up the reputation of
the fellow in the state he left
when he came to Arizona. He
may have migrated to Arizona
for some other reason than love
of the climate and the scenery.
Surety companies before they
issue a bond require the applicant
to give a detailed statement of
the places in which he lived for
ten years past, and give names
Of references, also setting forth
the positions they have held COW
ering all the time. 1t might be
well if the primary law had some
such provision before a m a n
could file as a candidate. 1t
might clarity the situation some
what of undesirables.

Lopsided Quarantine.


board of health, through the
county board of health, is one of
the most ridiculous orders ever
put in force in an effort to stamp
out disease. Under the order all
places of amusement, the church
es and pool halls are closed, but
the puplic schools are permitted
to run as usual. We take no
issue with the board on the quar-
antine as we believe it is essen
tial, but to make it effective the
one place that should be closed
first is the public school. The
history of the disease shows that
practically all cases are those of
young children who must have
contracted the disease in school,
and since the quarantine regula-
tions have been in force at least
one child was found in the school
broken out with the disease, and
had to be sent home. Under the
rules Of the quarantine the par
ents of the children are not per-
mitted to loiter on the streets or
gather in any public place, but
under the compulsory education
law they are compelled to send
their children to school, where
for five hours a day they mingie
together in the very place where
the disease has found all it's vic
Tins, and then they go to their
several homes to spread the
germs to other members of the
family.
Unless the order is changed
closing the school the people Of
this city have no protection
whatever. The children have
been ordered vaccinated or they
will not be permitted in school
after next Monday, and whether
the people believe in vaccination
or not they have to submit, be-
cause if the children are kept out
of school the parents can be pros
ecuted under the truant law. A
condition such as now confronts
this city existed in Massachusetts,
and test case was taken to the
United States Supreme Court,
when the decision was rendered
that compulsory vaccination could
not be enforced, but where the
parent was prosecuted under the
truant law for failure to send his
children to school it was no de-
fense to say that he was opposed
to vaccination.
Under existing conditions Of
the quarantine the parents have
no rights to try to protect their
family from the contagion fur
ther than to have the children
vaccinated. The children must
be sent to school. which is the
apparent hot-bed of the disease,
as their failure to do so will sub
Ject them to arrest and prosecu-
tion under the truant law. If
the school is to be kept open, in
all fairness the operation of the
truant law should be suspended
during the quarantine, that par
ents could exercise their pleasure
as to whether or not they wanted
to keep their children in school.
If it is safe to permit the public
school to continue, Why is 1t ne
cessary to close the Sunday
schools, where the same children
meet together for about an hour
once a week where in every case
the children have been freshly
bathed, and are clad in clean,
freshly laundered garments?
We have no scruples against
vaccination; in fact we are firm
believer in its efficacy as a pre-
ventation, but some people hold
to different views, and they are
entitled to some consideration.
We are in favor of the quaran-

mersible boats would be ineffective and worthless without our Holland inven- t:ons. all of which were filed in the patent office at Berlin and entitled to such protection there as we give to German patents in this country. They were not stolen. but are used to destroy the property of the nation whose citi- zens have thus been robbed
 Of the many inventions and formu- las which are affected by the new i- cense regulations of the federal trade commission those relating to dyestuffs and drugs or medicines are the most useful. but the assertion that the dye patents are of vital importance" to our manufacturers is not warranted by the facts. We have built up a great dyestuffs industry without their aid, but they will broaden the field and va riety of products. Many of the drug formulas, however, are greatly needed. Our supply of certain patented reme- dies and anaesthetics is very small, and the prices of some have been multi piled by ten, partly for reason that the patents have not been infringed or stolen
 There will be all the safeguards that the German owners could suggest. Money to pay for the use of their prop erty will be collected and held by our government. But after the war there will be a just claim against the fund in behalf of the defrauded owners of sub marine patents. This claim will not be small one, and it should be satiS- fled before German owners receive any mart of the fund

DR. bLONE WILL
 NUT COME HERE

pr. R. H. H. Blome, former president Of the Northern Arizona Normal school at Flagstaff, will not consent to a hear ing being held in Phoenix on the charges made against him as designat- ed by Governor Hunt, and so declared himself yesterday after being informed Of the letter written to him by the gov ernor
 T have no fear of any mob in Flag staff," stated Dr. Blome in this city yesterday. "A hearing held in Phoenix before the board of education of the Flagstaff Normal school would not be the kind of a hearing I would wish. I have been promised a hearing on the charges to be held in Flagstaff and will insist upon that being done. In spite of the fears of Sheriff Dickinson, which Governor Hunt has stated that he has been informed in a letter, that it would be unsafe to the peace of the community to hold the hearing in Flagstaff, I insist that there is no danger"
 Whether the place for the hearing will be changed to Flagstaff, or wheth- CT the governor will insist upon it being held in Phoenix or not at all. could not be learned yesterday as Governor Hunt is in Tucson attending a meeting of the board of regents of the university.
 Following is the letter of the gover- nor to Dr. Blome, following the re- ceipt of a communication from Sheriff Dickinson stating that feeling was high in Flagstaff and that it would not he safe to hold the hearing in that city. My Dear pr. Blome:
 The most serious internal problem that confronts this country today is the question of mob violence. Arizona has not missed it's quota of these ont rages, although so far they have been limited to the mining camps. In oth- CT states, however, the problem has extended into academic and civic circles, and the newspapers never come to hand any more without at least one account of mob activities.
 My personal representative who re- gently visited Flagstaff tells me that feeling runs very high, and that a public hearing there such as won have requested would undoubtedly re- suit in the dragging in of personalities and other matters that have absolutely no bearing, but which would inevitable cause trouble. This opinion is shared by the peace officers of your county who urge that no such hearing be held in Flagstaff.
 For the good of the school and ths state, therefore, must decline to fur- ther entertain the proposition of a hearing at Flagstaff. You may name a date for such proceedings as you de- sire held in my office at Phoenix where l can guarantee just and calm action. ''
 Respectfully,
 GEO. w. P. HUNT, Governor of Arizona

Interestinu Speeches

The interesting event in Wednesdays Liberty bond campaign was the ad- dress of Guy Manners at the Pacific Creamery at 12:15 o'clock and at the corner of First and Washington street at 1:30 o'clock. MT. Manners thrilled his audience with the startling truth of the necessity of backing up the men lover there with the dollars lover here" in ringing words that must have sunk deep into the hearts of his listen CTS. He went into details of some of the events he had witnessed just prior to and after the war commenced. Mr. Manners and his sister, Mrs. Grace Manners Broughan, are doing their bit in touring the country and placing the truth before the people that they may better understand the conditions over there and the real necessity of saving and helping at home. He expected to make only the one address at the Pa cific Creamery. With the committee from Alhambra, Mrs. Lawrence Ser geant, Mrs. E. E. Jack, Mrs. Ray Neb- lett and MT. and Mrs. J. D. Cage a great many bonds were sold. After his address those employed who had al- rady bought signed up for moro. Mir. Guruch, Armours chief representative, helped out with the work. MT. Man. ners was then invited to address the citizens down town. A committee quickly invited everybody and a crowd or at least five hundred men and women heard the address. He was given rousing vote of thanks and a
 little child gave him a bouquet of flowers. An impromptu reception closed the event that will live long in the hearts of the citizens.
 Milton D. Ewing who was operated on at the hospital in Phoenix is hav- ing a turn for the better Mrs. Ewing who has been in town with him re- turned home last night to look after the ranch.

MESA HIGH PLACED
 0|V ACCREDITED LIST
TEMPE OFFICE Mrs. Chas. Prather Brown Mercantile Company
 Phone 71

MESA, April 20.-Supt. H. E. Mat thews of the Mesa schools has just been advised by telegram that the Mesa Unlon High school has peen accepted and placed on the accredited list o1 the North Central associa- tion of colleges and high schools.
 Many high schools in the state made application for recognition this year. but Mesa Union high school was the only one accepted and accredited.
 This association is composed of only the best and foremost high schools of the United States. It de- mands the highest standard of rain- ing in the members of the faculty; it requires sufficient equipment of the best quality for the carrying on Of all courses in the high school. It recognizes only the highest quality of class room instruction. It Is a matter of great satisfaction to the students and friends of the Mesa Union high school that the school passed the most severe examination in these respects. It's graduates. can now be assured of the same recog- milton and standing allowed to the graduates of any high school in the United States.
 All of the above is a simple state- ment of a recognition of merit, that will be passed by without thought by casual readers of The Republican All such should reflect what it means to have in our midst an institution so thoroughly equipped and supplied with such competent teachers, that the rigid personal examination made by a representative of the associa- tion, on the occasion of a recent visit to Mesa, only revealed the ex- cellence of Mesa high, and this ex- animation has resulted in tie school being placed on a par with the best of our country.
 Neither do Mesa citizens realize to the full, the splendid work done in most quiet way by Superinten- dent Matthews. The one trouble l about MT. Matthews is the inability ol the reporter to get him to talk abou, | the schools under his charge, but the fact remains that in this educator the trustees realize that they have one of the foremost men of the state
 in school matters, and one who is laboring unceasingiy and in mos1
 uaobtrusive manner for the upbuild. i ing of the splendid educational sys- | tenn of which our citizenship is justly | proud

COUNTY COUNCIL
 ORGANIZED FUR DEFENSE EFFORT

Complete arrangements of work of the Maricopa county Council of De- fense were consumated at a recent meeting and the organizations ma chinery for patriotic work set in mo- tion. C. W. Peterson of the county board of supervisors is serving as chairman of the organization, Charles Woolf of Tempe as treasurer and J. H. McClintock as secretary.
 For what is perhaps the most inn portant branch of the councils work, which is divided into four sections, is the committee on production, of which Frank H. Parker is chairman. MT. Parker is also president of the county farm bureaus.
 At present the whole Salt River valley has been well plated by this committee, and the areas devoted to crops recently planted are to be out lined on section maps. Special Sub- committees are to consider special subjects, cotton, cereals, summer crops, labor, threshing, transportation, etc., and consideration of actual methods of agriculture from producer to con- sumer will be made.
 Of great importance also is the com- mittee on public defense, which is headed by c. M. Candy, former county attorney. Upon this committee rests much of the patriotic work in this con- munity, particularly concerning loyal ty, home production and general en- couragement of patriotic effort. This committee will work in conjunction with the authorities of the state, coun- ty and cities.
 At the head of the public welfare committee is Mrs. Charles E. Arnold, who until recently had charge of Red Cross welfare work in one of the four city sub divisions. Her work will be in conjunction with that of the Red Cross and her assistants largely will come from that organization. This committee will handle relief work among dependents of soldiers in the field and anything of the sort that may be necessary for the benefit of sick or wounded men returned from the camps or the front. Its sub di- sions includes medical, dental, legal and relief.
 The legal division at present will work especially with the handling of | questionnaires of the men drafted and with the furnishing of advice to them or their families. Later there will come questions of disposition of in- surance moneys received for wounds ol l death.
 The fourth committee is on finance and is headed by Dave Goldberg, who has been very successful in similar capacities in the past and who has pa- triotically taken up this very import ant featuer of the local council work.
 The Maricopa council will be subor- dinate to the State Council of Defense and will assist wherever possible in the work of that organization. In turn il VIII organize community councils ir the sections not covered by the farm bureaus and thus will assist in weld ing the patriotic effort of the county into one effective whole.

Great Parade of Students

Preparatory to the entertainment given last night at the high school by the students, was a parade at o'clock, which beggars description. It was unique, original and with completeness of detail that brought expressions of surprise from the peo- pie who witnessed the effort. First there came a clown band, composed of boys and girls, followed by a Red Cross float on which two nurses in uniform, ministered to the needs of a much bandaged youth. Scotch las sies charming in their kilties, a bride and groom, the former in heavy overcoat and with big valise, ap- propriately labeled, wild lion in a cage, the youth on all fours emitting blood curdling growls, cowboys with a lassoed wild man between them, pretty equestriennes in red, and astride shetland ponies, a Liberty loan brigade, of freshman girls, the Spirit of '76" with fife and drums, the Kaiser marching along with hands uplifted while four high school cadets prodded him from the rear with their bayonets. Goats hitched to wagons. with youthful drivers, more pretty girls on ponies. A real frontier stage coach drawn by a gigantic white mule of years unnumbered and a tiny specimen of the same species. Last of all came two pretty lassies on ponies while one of them upheld the national colors.
 The High School Follies" given at the school last evening bore out amply the promise of the parade, and an enthusiastic audience enjoyed to the full the sixteen clever stunts pulled off at five cents per stunt, or "six for a quarter" The proceeds will be donated to the local branch of the Red Cross.

SHOOTING STARS
 PARTS OF PLANETS

Our knowledge of shooting stars extends into the oldest history 6f humanity, back into prehistoric timex Yet today no one knows exactly what a shooting star is, or from where if comes. An hypothesis proposed in 1875 and generally accepted today. is that meteorites are fragments broken from small planetary masses by vol canic explosions, brought about by q sudden expansion of gases, steam and probably hydrogen. The broken hits after their separation, are believed to arrange themselves in swarms which cross the orbit of the earth in ac- cordance with definite law. Shoot ing stars. then, undoubtedly come from within our solar system and are broken bits of a world body des troyed by volcanic events. Many meteorites have been found in Ari- zona.

AMERICA PATENTS
 TAKEN BY GERMANS
(New York Tribune)

The German government has stolen
 var and used them for three years without compensation to the owners,
 We deal with such property in another way. Our government. about to permit manufacturers hereto use thousands of devices and formulas covered by patents owned in Germany, will require a strict accounting from all to whom licenses are granted. and there will be payment to the foreign inventors after the war. There is abundant proof of the theft in the results of an inspection of the German submarine now on ex- hibition in this city. Germany'S sub
