 From north of Jerusalem to the
 Sea of Galilee the Ottoman forces have virtually been annihilated. Add cd to the heavy casualties, 25,000 prisoners were taken, while the re- mainder of the Sultan's army wanders leaderless and bewildered. Entente aviators have successfully bombed ConstantinOple.
 On front of eight miles in South crn Serbia, from Monastin to Lake Doiran the Balgarians and Germans are hard pressed. A great spear head has severed communications between the Bulgarian armies. Unofficial re- ports are to the effect that the Serbs have taken 10000 prisoners.
 The French and English operations against St. Quentin are vitally im- portant. Both Debeny and Haig have taken highly essential ground, the French completely outflanking the town on the south.

authority, seemed to be the consensus
 of opinion among those present at the
 afternoon meeting who have closely
 followed the chain of events culmin~
 ating in yesterdays affray.
 From information gathered from
 federal sources: from county officers
 and police officials: from the ranks of the 'traitorous element itself, convey
 ed by informants who have sickened
 of the plottings but fear to tell all
 they know, and from a correlation of
 events incidental in themselves but
 in mass furnishing substantial evi- dence, has come conclusive proof
 that a well-organized, well-financed
 moveIhent, fostered by pro-German propagandists, defeatists and tL-
 Hun-loving "Wobblies.' is at work
 in Yavapai county, having for its ob
 ject the embarrassment, insofar as possible, of the governments war aims.
 As all is grist that comes to a Ger man propagandist's mill, any out break that would interfere with the production of copper, or result in the lowering of the morale of the home people, or seem to set at naught the police powers and authority of the of iicials. would be deemed a stroke for their Kaiser Could they succeed in bringing about an outbreak that could be construed as resistance of the [ authorities having in charge the pres cnt draft measures, this would be hailed by the propagandists, and doubtless transmitted broadcast : among the neutral nations and the L. $. Allies, as proof" that American i citizens were rebelling against the draft and the continuance Of the war. |
 This country is not alone in having this treacherous element in its midst; l other sections of the state and other | portions of the country, where cOndi-i tions seem favorable, are having simi- lar experiences. but it is decidedly up 10 the loyal citizens to put an end to the machinatiouS of this element in this locality, and 1t was with this de- termination that Mayor Harry Heap called yesterdays meeting to order
 Re-organizing Home Guards. 1
 Some of those present favored call ing upon the governor for troops to be stationed in the Jerome district; others thought the formation of and well-armed Home Guard, to cooperate with the officials in time of need, would better serve the interests of the community, and l committee of five. representing each of the five districts into which thu city has been theoretically divided foY Of organization, was finallL appointed by the mayor to perfect plans, secure trustworthy member ship and select a commander-in-chief.
 Later this committee decided upon Chief of Police Bert Bloom as the officer within the city, Inc chief and the Home Guard to CO., operate with the shcriffs office at my time their services can be of use. The committee and the chief will also york out detailed plans for calling put the guard: meeting places will be arranged. the members properly arm ,d and sworn in as peace officers, md every effort made. 1t IS declared.
