Senator Hitchcock of \

Senator Hit chcock, of Ne
braska. a democrat and one of
President Wilson's strongest sup
porters, made a bitter attack on
Secretary of War Baker in the
senate early in the week, declar-
ing among other things that the
Secretary had been guilty of
refrigeration of the widest
sort" when he testified that
America would have a million
and a half men in France early
in the year, and then proved by
the figures of the shipping board
that the United States cannot
build or borrow ships enough to
transport that many men and
supplies.

In the grand scramble among
the democratic politicians of the
state to secure the gubernatorial
nomination we are putting our
money on Sid Osborn. He is the
favorite with the railroads and
mining interests and they under
stand how to corral the votes for
their man. While they are quietly
financing the campaign and per-
fecting an organization to deliv-
er the goods, Sid will go about
the state posing as the friend of
the working man and shedding
crocodile tears over their unfortu-
nate condition. If Sid ever per-
formed one day of manual labor
he should have with him a duly
authenticated certii cate telling
when and where it was per-
formed. His public record now
is that he has been holding some
kind of political job since the day
he cast his first vote.

According to the Holbrook
News j. B. Wilmeth of the Ari-
zona Leader is contemplating the
issuing of a democratic news
paper at Holbrook, which will be
printed in the Flagstaff office.
AS a legitimate newspaper field
Holbrook is hardly large enough
to support one newspaper, but the
new promoters are probably in
terested in getting the demo
cratic legal patronage of tn e
nation, state and county, and
have no other interest in the

We are not much of a personal
admirer of Roosevelt, but we
prefer his American spirit to the
trimming expediency of William
Randolph Hearst and his string
of newspapers and magazine. 1t
was the Hearst newspapers that
were always strongly opposed to
the entering of the United States
into the war, and so unfairly
were they lending encourage
ment to the Germans that the
Hearst papers were barred from
England and Canada. Now that
it is popular to take the other
side of the question Hearst wants

A new cult of sun worshippers
has opened up for business in
that city of hobbies, Los Angeles.
The new cult has abandoned
their old doctrine that licking
dew drops from grass blades
and eating violets will insure
perpetual life, and they are now
taking up vegetarianism and
deep breathing as their gospel,
and incidentally entertaining a
peace propaganda. AS the head
of the cult is a German it is prob
ably another attempt to build up
o-German sentiments.

Government control of the rail-
roads is going to encounter the
quiet bitter opposition of all the
railroad managers, and no op-
portunlty will be allowed to pass
where a monkey wrench can be
thrown into the machinery. AL
ready the Senators and Congress-
men who owe their jobs to the
kindly benevolent railroad power,
are trying to pass a bill that
government control of the prop
critics will cease at the termina-
ton of the war, and until this
bill is passed the government
will get little real assistance from
the managers in an efficient op-
Grafton of the roads and expe-
diting the movement of freight.
They can we'll afford to make all
grief and trouble possible, and
add to the operating expenses in
every conceivable way to embar-
rass the government, as the gov
ernment has guaranteed a fixed
dividend to the stockholders, and
to maintain the upkeep of the
properties. The railroad heads
are not interested in making gov
ernment control a success, as it
would mean government owner
ship would follow, and the soon
er Mr.. McAdoo removes the pres
ent managers of the railroads
and puts men in their places in
harmony with the purposes of
the government, the sooner will
the country get results.

his potatoes, wrapped them in

nipped the scheme in the bud by

Family Row.

There is a good sized row on
in the official family of Governor
Hunt, the belligerants on one
side being the commission on
state institutions, and Lamar
Cobb, state engineer on the other.
The whole disturbance is over
the question Of who will have
charge and supervision of several
millions of dollars appropriated
for road building in the state.
When the newly appointed state
commission took office they at
once attempted to assume juris-
diction over the office of the state
engineer, on the very liberal con-
struction that the engineer was
a state institution, and to this
Mr.. Cobb most strenuously OBJ
jected. The commission then
put the question up to Attorney
General Wiley Jones for a legal
opinion, and as Wiley is not
friendly to Mr.. Cobb he decided
off-hand that the commission was
right in their presumption that
Mr.. Cobb was a state institution
under the perview of the statutes.
Mr.. Cobb took the matter directly
to Gov. Hunt, in a letter given
publicity early in the week, in
which he metaphorically took the
hide off the several members Of
the commission and the attorney
general.
Wo have such an abiding faith
in the opinions of the Attorney
General always being wrong that
we are certain in this case that
his opinion turning the million
dollar road fund over to the con-
troll of the state commission was
prompted not by any legal logic
but was given for the purpose of
venting his spite against Mr..
Cobb, who has never hesitated
to express his contempt for the
attorney general who disgraces
his Office with his maudlin ignor-
ance of the law. The law Gre
ating the state commission ex-
pressly states just what institu-
tions come under the control and
management of the commits
sion, enumerating them specific
ally, but nowhere does it recite
that it has jurisdiction over the
office of the state engineer.
Mr.. Cobb, as state engineer,
in all years past, has discharged
his duties faithfully and con-
scientiously, and no scandal ever
attached to his handling the road
fund appropriated by the state,
but it is possible the new COM
mission see a chance if they con-
troll the fund where it can be
used corruptly in the approach
ing democratic prim aries to
nominate such candidates as will
be to their liking. Gov. Hunt
should point out to his state COM
mission in. mo uncertain manner
just what are their legal duties,
and notify them to keep their
hands off the engineers office.

Men Needed for Forest Regiment

Men Needed tor + forest Regiment
Six thousand additional men
are wanted at once to bring the
Twentieth Engineers (Forest) }
regiment up to full strength, ac-
cording to officials of the Forest
Service who have been requested
by the War Department to aid
in securing the necessary re-
cruits. This is the second forest
regiment formed by the War
Department and will be the big
gest regiment in the world.
The first forest regiment has
been in France for several
months, busy in cutting and
getting out of the French forests
timber, lumber, and other ma
terial for our army. Some bat
talions of the Twentieth have
also gone across, and others will
follow as their equipment and
preliminary training are COM
pleted. Men who enter this unit
are therefore assured, the officials
say, of early service abroad.
Men can join the regiment by
enlistment if not of draft age
and if within the age limits,
which are from 18 to 40. Reg
istrants under the selective draft
law who have not been notified
to hold themselves in readiness
to report for duty at a camp can
be "inducted" into the regiment
if they can show that they are
qualified for it.
Applicants for enlistment or
induction may apply by letter to
the Supervisor, Snowflake, or to.
the various listing officers who
have been receiving local appli-
cations for places in the forest
regiments. Letters of applica,
tion must contain full state
ment of experience in any of the
various lines of work involved,
with names and addresses of en-
ployers.
Three thousand of the men
wanted will consist of lumber
jacks, sawmill workers, and men
experienced in building and ope-
rating logging railroads. The
other three thousand will make
up three road and bridge building
battalions which will serve as
auxiliary to the logging and saw
mill units. For these road build
ing battalions, men who are
familiar with the operation of
rock crushers, road rollers,
scrapers and graders, motor
truck drivers, and laborers ex-
perlenced in road work are re-
quired.
The numbering and sawmill
battalions will be made up of
men skilled in every phase of
manufacturing and delivering
lumber and other forest products
needed in the conduct of the war.
Sawyers, teamsters, axemen, tie
makers, cooks and charcoal
burners are some of the classes
wanted for the woods operations. !
Graders track layers, track boss
es, locomotive engineers and fire.
men, brakemen, machinistc and
laborers are needed to construct
and operate logging railroads. |
Men skilled in all kinds of work |
around saWmills, including filers.
stationary engineers, boiler
makers, truck and tractor ope-
rators and laborers for lumber
wards are reol1irnd |

Press Comments,


 The Phoenix Messenger of May 4th, 1918, says:
 Judge Hawkins hardly needs an in troduction to the voters of this state, as his splendid talent has been util- ized in behalf of Liberty Bonds and on other occasions before audiences in nearly every part of the state. He is an able lawyer, a man of clean hab- its and faultless private life. He came to Arizona about seven years ago from the State of Texas, where he was known as one of the foremost lawyers of that state, having conducted many notable cases He served in both branches of the Texas Legislature and has always taken an active part in politics, being an uncompromising Democrat.
 Should Judge Hawkins receive the nomination, he would make good race, and, when elected the state would be safe under his legal guid- ance.
 His lifetime has been spent in the study and practice of law, and he now has a good clientage throughout the state. Judge Hawkins is about 50 years of age, married, and makes his home in Phoenix, where he has con siderable property"
 The Mohave County Miner said:
 Following came the speaking at
The copper era and Morenci leader., 1918-07-26

Elk's Hall, Judge Paul c. Thorne pre- siding, who introduced the speaker of the day, Judge A. s. Hawkins, who made one of the most stirring ad- dresses that we have heard in recent years, and it is a noteworthy fact that following his remarks at the close of the meeting nearly all present availed themselves of an opportunity to sub scribe for a Liberty bond. In support of the ardent manner in which Judge Hawkins appealed to the people, we will quote one of the prominent citi- zens of Oatman, at which place he spoke Saturday evening. He said:
 That if Judge Hawkins would make one more speech at Oatman, he be-
 ieved that he could double the amount of the Liberty Loan sub- scription.' Such was this mans opinion of Judge Hawkins, and we are certain that it is the opinion of all of the people of this section who were fortunate enough to hear him."
