B|C CALL ID JOIN NAVY COMING SO0|V

Arizona young men who are at home on the stormy quarter deck of a bronco are to be urged in a special campaign to transfer their skill to the deck of some of the new vessels soon to be added to the United States navy.
 So urgent is the call for men for the navy that the United States soon is to be asked to furnish 220.000 men and 22.000 officers, in a campaign to last about five months. according to word which was brought to Phoenix.
 Of this large number of men needed in this new call, which will be issued ia a few weeks, it is said, the west and southwest will be called upon to furnish about 100000.
 The 22,000 officers required in the campaign will be taken almost entire ly, it is stated. from the ranks of en- listed men. Special tradesmen are not required in the campaign, the greatest need being for seamen and firemen. This call, it is said, will overshadow all others previously issued.

'. J. RITTER IN RACE
 FUR LOWER HOUSE

V. D. Ritter of Arlington, Arizona, will be a candidate for the democratic nomination for the house of represen- tativeS of the state legislature at the primaries in September. It is partic- ularly gratifying to party leaders and the party in general that Mir. Ritter is to make the race.
 He is one of the representative and prosperous ranchers and stock raisers of the valley. Sheep raising is his main business. It is thought that the nomi- nation and election of Mir. Ritter should be certain as he is the only one in the race from that end of the coun- ty, and if the county should be repre- sented from all sections his candidacy should meet with general approval.
 MT. Ritter has been a resident of the valley for number of years and came to this state from the state of Wash ington where he was a staunch demo- crat although the democratic party was greatly in the minority. He has always been active in politics although he has never before been a candidate for office.

Desmond at the Columbia

The bill at the Columbia theater for today is William Desmond in The Captain of His Soul,' a story replete with thrills and mystery. Desmond is shown at his best in this master pro- duction. Tomorrow Big Bill' Hart comes in The Captive God"
 The much talked of picture, ''The Finger of Justice" will be shown Thursday. Friday and Saturday. This thrilling picture is based on the actual happenings of the fall of the Barbary coast Jane O'Rourke, who plays the star role in this production, has played at the Columbia theater in vaudeville when that theater was first opened, and many of the Phoenix people will recognize this star. One of the scenes from The Finger of Justice" shows the "soiled doves of the tenderloin in attendance at the church of the Rev. Paul Smith demanding to know what he was going to do with them if he turned them out, in an effort to dis courage his efforts at closing these places of ill fame, and while the facts as they have since developed are not shown in the picture, it is of interest to know that he secured positions for nearly 100 of these women. while more than a 100 were taken to the hospital and afterwards placed in good posi- tions.
