 FIRST AID TAUGHT
GLASSES HELD THREE rIMEs DAILY IN WHICH FREE LEG. TURES ARE GIVEN FOR SAv. ING LIFE-INTEREST HERE AND AT MoRENcI.

Under the auspices of the Arizona Bureau of Mines MT. s. c. Dickinson of Tucson, is in the Clifton mining district conducting first aid school for mine employees. The lectures here are given at .Morenci on Wed. desdays and Saturdays at and 4 D. m. and at Clifton at 10, 4 and 2. D. m., every other day in the Y. M. Q. A. building, where the men are beina trained in first aid work and rescue methods.
 The work being done by MT. Ddckin. son Is similar to that which is being. conducted by the Federal Bureau of Mines. which has eight, cars equipped and now in the mining, districts Of the country teaching rescue and first aid methods. Car No. 2, of the Federal Bureau of Mines. is now in, Ray, where it will remain until the 18th inst. Inquiry at the general office Of the Arizona Copper Co, Ltd, elicited the information that they. were advis. ed that Car No 2 of the Federal, Blu. reau of Mines would visit the Clifton district about the middle of May. In view of he fact that the State Bureau Of Mines is conducting the present school the visit of this car during May u lures and demonstrations will act as a follow up of the work now being done by the state, the instruction by the Federal agents will prove most effective to many who will be enabled to review the lectures given them by MT. Dickinson. s
 MT. Dickinson's work, while not so elaborate as that of the Federal ser. vice, yet 1t is more thorough, so far as it goes, as he remains in a district longer, giving more thorough instructions. He gives instructions in first aid that will prove most effec. tive in accidents and will be the mean of saving many. lives, perhaps, to say nothing of mitigating the sufferings of Injured miners in case of injury. { It is often the case men suffer un. told agondes while waiting for the ar. rival of a surgeon after an accident in which some are injured To re lieve such as these Is what the men are being taught. To stop a flow of blood, or reset fractured or dislo- cated bone immediately after an accf- dent, and before inflammation has set up. would relieve much pain, to. say nothing of being able to repair an in- jury effectively. The man who under stands this is valuable asset to any camp. An injury repaired immediate, ly avoids consequent complications, which means loss of time to employer and employee. An injury repaired at once heals correspondingly earlier. and enables the one injured to return to his duties the sooner.
 The classes are being held at Morenci on Wednesdays and Satur- days at and o'clock p. m., and at Clifton every other day at 10 a. n. and 4and p. m.
 MT. Dickinson, who has been in the district for several days. was joined last Saturday by Mrs. Dickinson, and the two have apartments at the Cliff ton -hoel. 2
 Work as Outlined by Mir. Dickinson.
 At the request of the Copper Era MT. Dickinson has prepared brief outline of the work being done by the Bureau of Mines under his direction in this district:

Reoistration Closes Monday

For the purpose of qualifying for participation in the approaching pri- mary election every man must have registered. The books will close on Monday evening at o'clock. Town Clerk Hagan stated that this does not mean 5:05, but the books will be closed at : o'clock sharp. If you have not qualified as voter when the hour strikes five you will have no more voice in selecting the nominees of the democratic party of Clifton than will Chinaman. Do you want to be Chinaman? Then register, ard don't postpone the matter till the last day. The Clerk is doing everything possible to enable all to register, going from house to house, but he may miss you. He is at his office every morning. Be sure that he gets your name.

Run Away on Monday

Some little excitement was occas- toned Monday morning by the sight of a runaway horse along the street and across the bridge. The large roan horse belonging to Yee Ling. the Chinaman who delivers vegetables over the city, was the animal that created the excitement. The horse was cauoht in front of the Central hotel. While driving near the post office the king bolt in the wagon broke causing the front of the vehicle to droD down. after the front wheels and the horse started in their mad race. In the fall Yee Ling was thrown off the seat and his produce spilled in the street. Fortunately the horse and front wheels were out of reach and the driver made a narrow escape fom being caught and dragged by the frightened horse.

Always a popular gentleman with a large cir cle of friends, his recent narrow es- cape from the visit of the grim reaper riakes him the recipient of universal congrat atulations.

ALDERMAN LINEUP
 TAKE YOUR CHOICE
BATTLE NOW ON AND EVERY
 ONE WHO HAS QUALIFIED AS 2 AN AMERICAN CITIZEN CAN ! BACK HIS FAVORITE.

The municipal political ball has been started. Candidates for the 1-seven positions of alderman have filed their petitions and every qualified voter will have an oppor- tunity to back his favorite. Two of those who were named as candidates for the nomination failed to file their nomination papers, and the list has been cut to thirteen. But this is just one short of being two for each office, and it will not be hard to make a selection. In fact you will have a choice, as only seven will be elected. But all are good men, and 1t should not be a difficult matter to pick com potent material from this array of talent. szso1 -tisr 67+'A- i--l.@ # aq The contest can now be said to be on. As some local issues have been injected into the campaign, it may as sume heated proportions before the count is made. sl This office is of paramount import ance to the development of the city. sdt is the lduty.So of every patriotic Cliff tonite to cast his vote for the man who will work for the best interest my will be one that will claim the at
  of the money derived from the sale of bonds will soon have been expend- ed, and retrenchment will likely be matter that will face the next board t9.- z Hpfa 575 slac7H . z While it is not considered that pre- election promises are very binding on the average man who runs for of fee, yet it is we'll enough for every voter to become posted as to the standing of the candidate for whom he casts his vote on the 18th inst. You should know what the man stands for who will make your laws and spend your money. He will be your agent, and if the city would thrive you should demand to know that he will represent you, and not squander the public monies. 4
 Too often it is the case that the average voter gives this matter very little consideration. A candidate is voted for because he is good fellow, or because he is your personal friend, yet may fall short of every qualffica- ticn to fill the office which he seeks. If you have the interest of your com munity at heart you will vote for the best qualified man, or the one whom you deem best qualified to work for that which is best for the community. Qualifications should have precedence over friendship. Are you big enough to qualify as patriotic citizen of Clifton? The results will tell. Following IS the ine-up for the cam. paign. Look over the list and se- lect your candidates.

remporarx visit to eIeason-

Rumors have been af1oat tnls week that General Manager 1Bennie of the shannon Cooper company, would soon leave Clifton to make his head at Gleason. This. like most ot the rumors which have been cir rulated regarding teh affairs of the Shannon proved to be without found ation. Inquiry from MT. Bennie re- garding the matter brought out the fact that his contemplated stay at Gleason was temporary one. and it's duration not settled. The company has mining interests there. and his visit to that place is to look after the comranv's interests He stated that he might be absent a month or week he could not say definitely, hut bis going would in no manner af- feet his position here, as his office will be maintained here as usual.

Resistrants Requested to Shoot

The government has made request Of all rife clubs to instruct young men in Class I how to shoot. The Clifton club. in common with others, have received this request from the gov ernment, and the Copper Era Is called upon to say to every man in Class I that the Clifton club invites them tc become members of this or ganization. The older members will take pleasure in rendering the regis trants all the assistance they can, and instruct them in the art of handling a rifle. This will be of considerable advanage to the raw fellow, who has to go to the front. It will save him lots of work by learning here before he enters the service, and the time consumed in preliminary work after he gets to camp can, in the event he takes advantage of this invitation, be devoted to more advanced training, that will be largely to his advance ment.

Fargo Girl Helps
RuStdd Red Cross

Miss Stella Halsten, a well known
young reader of Fargo. who was a
member of the cast giving the one
act play "Off For France" at the
Orpheum last Friday evening, was
in Rustad Saturday evening to give
a program of readings for the bene-
fit Of the Red Cross branch Of that
place. Miss Halsten is donating her
services for such entertainments,
this being the second one she. has
given in Minnesota. The first one
was at Glyndon. for the benefit OF
the Red Cross there.
Miss Halsten's program at Rustad
Saturday evening was largely one Of
Swedish dialect characterizations, in
which she is especially good, and was
Of q little over an hours duration.
InterspertI the readings were
piano numbers by Miss Dorothy
Smith, Rustad, and an auction sale
and supper were also features of the
benefit affair. 1t was held in the
Consolidated school building, and
Melted a neat sum for the Red Cross,
there being a very large and enthus-
iastic attendance.

A. c. Orchestra
Delights CroWd

A capacity audience at the Grand
/ theater Sunday evening, with many
| standing throughout the concert and
| several hundred turned away for lack
| OF room. testified to the popularity OF
musicians from the North Dakota
Agricultural college. This was the
first concert Of the season given by
| the N. d. A. G. Concert orchestra
| and was a Grand Free Lecture course
! number. The orchestra was enthus-
iastically received, responding to only
part Of the repeated encores, and
the entire audience. even those who
, were standing, remained until the
conclusion of the concert.
The latter was in popular vein and
besides several groups of lighter
numbers, included the Verdi overture
from La Ferza del Destine", a suite
by Nicode entitled Scenes From the
South, Opus 20" comprising "Fairy
Tale" from La Provence, Moorish
two popular marches, Leo Falls
Lulu Won Linden, from 1.-THE Eter-
nal Waltz, and Zamecnek's For the
Freedom of the World; novelette,,
Tulips, by Mills, and ''Merceau, Ad-
miration", by Jackson. The various
themes were played with excellent
taste.
Membership in this orchestra is not
limited to college students, although
these predominant. Any capable
player can become a member without
charge, the college furnishing the
music, Instructor and rehearsal
room. There are at present q mem
bers in the organization, which makes
no pretense of being a symphony or
chestra, but which has q complete
concert Instrumentation, as follows:
Six first viOlins, five second violins;
viola; two cellos; string bass; piano;
flute; two clarinets; oboe; bassoon;
two trumpets; two horns; trombone
and tympani. DR.. G. s. Putnam is
conductor and Professor Henrickson,
violin instructor, is concert master.

Need Better Interpretation, Not
More LQWS, Says Miss Alice Duffy

''The subject. Legislative Needs,
should not be taken to mean that the
volume Of legislative enactments
should be increased" said Miss Alice
Duffy, policewOman of Fargo, Satur-
day afternoon in addressing a large
audience Of local Votes For Women
league members at the meeting held
at the home of Mrs. J. b. Glasgow,
Eighth street south. I'm sincerity Of
effort and legal achievement North
Dakota far excels most Of our states;
the miscarriage Of justice is not for
lack Of good laws, but arises more
from irregularities and variations of
Interpretation in the different courts,
and from lack Of adequate provisions
for enforcement" Miss Duffy con-

Ne10S of W0n1epS Work In Many Fields

1 holds Miss Duffy, there should be &
| public defender as we'll as public
| prosecutor-an attorney Of the samt
| legal status as that of the public
I prosecutor. This arrangement would
| be fairer to the defendant, save the
| time Of all concerned and the case
would be tried on its merits.
TT is clear that our present lega
methods do not affect the static
| existence Of crime; large number Of
| chronic offenders are not benefited In
| the least. Harsher laws with seveTel
penalties but no stronger measures
| for enforcement, and no change In
| the administration of the laws will
| not decrease the volume Of crime
| Laws must be constructive as well
as prohibitory and mandatory-they
must seek to eliminate the cause OF
crime rather than to insure punish
ment for violations. Many states are
now working toward the revision OF
administration.
What Women Can DO.
What women can do in the way
of legislation will depend largely on
the insight they obtain through study,
investigation, research and systema-
tized work. Women must guard
against attempting to put over too
many measures before the people are
prepared to accept such changes. I'm
enforced laws are a big factor in
the increase of criminality.
I'VE should begin by attempting
needed changes in city administra-
ton, but we must remember that
these changes can go no further than
state or federal laws permit" Here
changes, first among which was cited
better regulation Of street trades for
children.
In conclusion Miss Duffy said:
Certain things about the machinery
Of justice should be known by those
who expect to have a part in law
making or law enforcing. The best
way is to attend courts and consult
the best attorneys" A few general
facts were then listed, which all
progressive women, she stated, should
laws of evidence and modes Of pro-
Cedure.
Other Features.
Miss Duffy's address was heard
with much interest by the league
members, who found it of great bene-
fit.
Mrs, Robert Clendening, state suf-
frage president, gave a detailed &C
count of the recent meeting Of the
State Council for Defense, at Bis
marck, and read the following suf-
frage resolution passed by the coun-
Gil at a big mass meeting at the audi
forum, with only one dissenting vote:
"Inasmuch as England has enfran-
chised her women as a war measure,
and inasmuch as a federal amend
ment for woman's suffrage is now be-
for the United States, Be 1t Resolved,
that we urge our United States SEN
ators to work for it's passage" Ref
erence was also made by Mrs. Glen
dening to the rapid growth of the
local league. both in numbers and
Mrs. r. NJ. Pollock, chairman of
sewing for the leagues Red Cross
auxiliary, reported work completed
at Thursdays meeting of the auxil-
larry at the r. E. Weible residence, as

The next meeting Of the league will
be the first Saturday in April, at the
home of Mrs r. M. Pollock.

the jury system as in use-not as
contemplated by the Legislators who
embodied the Jury privilege in an
amendment to tho federal constitu-
ton" At This point IL. her address
Miss Duffy related an incident OF
recent occurrence illustrating such
"stalling". The constitutional
amendment which gives the right of
trial by jury gives the right Of speedy
trial .. Law delays always seem
to favor the guilty party. Hundreds
Of instances prove the need of revi-
sion in these matters. The municipal
court Of Chicago. with its many
branches presided over by judicial
experts. shows what modern, efficient.
business methods can do even with
the administration Of justice. These
courts insure speedy and impartial
hearings the procedure is informal
and the litigant in small controversies
is as carefully protected as is big
business.

Plans Uniform
Scale of Credits

A recent bulletin of the Northern
division Of the Red Cross, headquar-
ters in Minneapolis, makes the fol-
lowing announcement:
The Northern division, in an effort
to reward the services of those wo-
men who have given generously of
their time for Red Cross purposes,
has decided to adopt the following
rules regulating the use of the Red
Cross emblem and the service stripe.
1T has been decided that at the
end OF 80 hours spent in service in
the Red Cross workroOm a woman
may wear upon her apron the Red
Cross emblem, and at the end of
~ hours she may add a red cross to
the front OF her cap, and at the end
of 1913 hours she may wear a service
stripe about two inches long and one
half inch wide on the pocket of her
apron, this stripe to DE made of some
red material.
These regulations govern all
hours of service spent in surgical
dressings workroOms, in hospital
garment workrOoms and all other
workrooms under the supervision
and government of Red Cross or
CARNATIONS.
Realizing also that llnitters de-
serve recognition of their services,
the following schedule has been
adopted to govern their work: For
each sweater that is turned in a
woman shall receive credit for 16
hours of work; for each pair Of
socks, IA hours; for each pair of
wristlets, hours; for each helmet,
IA hours; and for each scarf, 8
hours. If the chapters in the divis-
ion, as a whole, will adopt this
schedule it will aid in maintaining
uniformity throughout the entire
division and will eliminate to some
extent the friction caused when one
chapter gives the same reward for
less work than another"
