: and concise It outlines just what con fronts the. retail and wholesale merchant and the consumer It gives a definite rec ord of the status of this district as pertain ing to the food administration
 Mir. .Campbells synopsis of the situation IS important to every man and woman of the Warren. district and Cochise county. much criticism has attached to the merch- : ant. which has not been due him. Much : irritation has been occasioned by the strict. ness of the regulations Mr. Campbell tells why and wherefore of the criticism, and of the regulations. And, he gives just an ink ling of what large retail firms must under go to be able to satisfy the consumer
 There is one thing which Mr. Campbell omits, however. He speaks of the strict ness of rules and regulations today He cites some instances where lines have been drawn even closer; few where relaxation has been permitted. He does not speak of what may be- contained in the future. The facts are, and we may as well face them frankly, that the government has hardly begun its food regulation program as it will finally be worked out We of the west have been fortunate Restrictions have not af- fected us as they have residents of other parts of the nation Visitors from the At lantic seaboard tell us we know nothing of the war But the food administration promises us we shall know, and if you have found it hard to smile when confronted with some of the regulations, be optimistic, and remember that this country has not yet come to black bread. Thank fortune for what you have ard can get You may be even less fortunate before the passing of many more moons.

RUMANIA's HUMILIATION.

And now, Rumania Is subjected to the same humiliation, the same rape of honor the same shame as were Belgium and Servia. German kultur has weighed the brave, small country down, and few hours have been allowed the little kingdom in which to capitulate to terms dictated by the kaiser, and in keeping with the ultimate realization of the German idea that Ger many must rule the world
 The brutality of Teuton miitarisrn as d,c. tated by the kaiser is again placed in the spot light of the world. The inhumanity of a race which believes itself of super-rnen and war-god of pagan faith are displayed in renewed vigor to the allies The desire of the German to stamp out all opposition to fheir rule of the world is reaffirmed And another disgraceful chapter is added to the central powers crimes.
 Rumania will be forced to accept the terms of the Hun Hemmed in on every side, beset by Tcuton forces, their country ravished, the men and women oppressed by conquest, the little kingdom cannot further defy the oppressor. But, her appeal .o the allies to remember her sacrifices VIII be heard. The lesson of Hun brutishness will be remembered Both will but strengthen the will of the allies to free Rumania to free Belgium, to free Servia, and n flee their own nations, by stamping out kulsur militia fem, and the house of t1ohenzollern.

Wheeler, sheriff of Cochise county. as the first Arizona officer for the new Ar;zona cavalry regiment now being organized at Douglas, the ewar department has recogniz- cd the merits of one ct this states most dauhtless fighting men, and has inaugural ed a policy of placing at the head of the new regiments units men from the state in which the regiment Is being recruited. If other troops in the organization are fav- ored with as able commanders from Ari- zona, the new fighting unit will be one of of which not only the state, but the ma ton, may well be proud
 Following the announcement that Cap tain Wheeler has taken his oath and.is now on his way to Douglas where he will be stationed with the Arizona regiment, 1t is confidently expected many men of Cochise county and Arizona will seek admission to his command. The former sheriff Is a vet eran of the Spanish-American war, and campaigner of known ability None can doubt his fitness to command nor his bravery, nor his cool, calculating demeanor when faced by dangers or serious problems. He will be valuable asset to the army of the United States, and an able representa- tive of the state of Arizona.
 Captain Wheeler will arrive in Douglas inside the next week He will enter the service as an officer of the United States reserve. His commissioning adds to the commanders of the United States one more man who will carry the colors of this na- ton fearlessly and faithfully. Captain Wheeler is personification of patriotism.

TAKE OVER ROAD CAMP


 The tochise County Highway Com mission should immediately convene and tnke over the road camp as now organized by County Engineer Ryan and put them r.ght to work on the road rom Tombstone to the Pima County line. This can be done quick ly, economically and to advantage of the million dollar road fund and if Governor Hunt should experience a change of heart the organization would be within easy distance of be- ing relocated 90 that work could be picked tap where left off last night on the state highway.
 The stopping of road work last evening by Governor Hunt is without logical excuse. The only reason that can be advanced Is that he is getting back T; somebody in Cochise county It takes a man of mighty imaginary vision to see wherein he gets even with any one by such action when in so doing he iniures every man. woman land child in Cochise county by his un- called for act of yesterday. Automati- caliy lne money sent to Phoenix by all Of the tax payers of all Cochise county IS now tied up indefinitely and the con clusion drawn IS that no work will be done for the next ten months and if Governor Hunt succeeds himself then we are 10 have no state highway built In Cochise county in thirty-fOur months But VIC al least may thank the Lord for the million dollor bond issue and mighty good direct tax for roads paid mostly by the mines and railroads
