ENLIST IN THE ENGINEERS.

The man who boasts red blood today has fight in his eye and if he is keen and spirited as we'll, he has something else in mind he has adventure. The one branch of the service that em- bodies all that is adventurous, inventive and skillful, is the en- giueer corps. Working cheer fully under any difficulty, put ting over with relish the jobs that the other man calls inn possible, injecting pep" into everything tackled, and, when the call comes for fight, let ting loose the stored up ardor that has made the branch fam ous since wars were known that's the real manhood-the real engineer"
 The 31th regiment of engi- neers at Camp Fremont, Califor mia, is new organization in name only, for it's backbone is taken from the old 3rd regiment serving until lately in Hawaii. There they made a record of daring and accomplishment that would fill the heart of a fiction writer with self pity. They turned out surveys under almost impossible conditions, left the other branches in the dust on hikes and athletics, and withal filled themselves with health, manliness and clean fun. These men are receiving their reward in promotions to fill a few of the many non commissioned berths open in the new organization. Under officers who have heart and soul in the game. they are now training for an early chance to match Yankee brains-which they typify-with the soulless thing called "kultur." Any man who thinks that he has the ne- cessary qualifications may apply to Major J. A. Dorst, room 1912 Santa Fe Bldg, San Francisco.

TO EXPEDITE COURT BUSINESS

Senator Henry F. Ashurst of Arizona has obtained quick &C., tion on his measure to establish The suggestion was made only recently and already the senator has had his bill passed by the senate. With this good start, the new court may be considered almost as good as established.
 The principal benefit is not merely to relieve Arizona's one overworked federal judge, w. Fl. Sawtelle, but to expedite the courts business in the interest of the public and to effect 8 saw ing of time and money. It is es- timated that the saving of money now paid out for caring for pris- onerS over periods of months until the court can consider their cases would go far toward pay ing the cost of another court. For instance, the court labors through a session at Tucson and goes thence to Globe. Prison CTS have been accomplishing at Globe, Phoenix and Prescott, while the court has been in SeS- sion at Tucson. They will have been held at the governments expense long time before the court reaches Phoenix and Pres colt and by the time the Pres colt docket has been cleared, it is found that number of pris- oners have been held a long time at Tucson.
 The saving of travelling ex- pense for the judge, officers of the court and witnesses will be a very important item. It is 200 miles from Tucson to Globe and 497 miles from Globe to Pres colt. By dividing the state into two districts, with one court holding sessions at Tucson and Globe and the other at Phoenix and Prescott, court business will be greatly expedited, long dock. cts cleared and the total cost to the government made little if any greater than it is at present. -EI Paso Herald.

JAMES G. GOLFER.
Prominent Pioneer Elected to Board
 of Historical Society.

James G. Colter, father of Hon. Fred. T. Golfer, state sen- ator and democratic national committeeman, has recently been elected vice president of the Pioneers Historical Society, at Prescott. Probably no other of our pioneers enjoys the promin- ence and wide acquaintance in all sections of Arizona, as does Mir. Golfer of Apache county. Crossing the plains from Wis consin in the early seventies, he introduced the first reaper and threshing machine in the state. As many of our older readers know, northern Arizona, and particularly that part which is now Apache county, was not then the settled, peaceful com munity one finds today. Where prosperous farms, numerous irri- gation projects, we'll stocked ranges, orchards and thriving towns now greet the visitor. were then the hunting grounds of rowing, desperate bands of Apaches. SavageS under the leadership of Chiefs Geronimo and Victoria periodically attack ed the whiGe settlers, either kill ing or driving away most of their cattle and horses. Of those who came to build their homes in this new country, numbers of them met their death in these Indian raids, James G, Golfer himself being wounded. With splendid health and vigor, Mir. Golfer, ST., is truly seventy five years young" is very active, and his feats in the saddle still arouse the envy of even the younger generation. Of late years his time is divided be- tween Prescott and Phoenix, spending the summers in the northern city. His jovial, mag netic personality has made friendsawhom he numbers by the thousands, and who never lack for real entertainment when, with his wonderful store of knowledge and tales of frontier life, they can strike this pleas ant old pioneer in a reminescent mood.

State Loans Money in Santa Cruz.

The state of Arizona at last has acted favorably upon the applications for loans made by Santa Cruz County's farmers The good news comes at a time when the money will do the most good. At this time of the year blowing and planting is be- ing planned and cattle may be bought for less money than later when the cattle are in good con- dition.
 The Patagonian is in receipt of a letter from State Treasurer David F. Johnson, which states that in all seventeen loans were approved, totaling $50, $50 in Santa Cruz county.
 The money will be forthcom- ing as soon as the applicants furnish the state treasurer with satisfactory abstracts of title.
 The state took a step in the right direction when it adopted the act permitting the borrow ing of state funds by the farm CTS of the state, as the short OdnhS were hard at times to meet when due owing to the fact that the farm CT does not realize on his crops but once a year, and he was compelled to renew his notes or pay them at the end of six months, and other securities was required than a mortgage on his land.
 We believe the benefit to the farmers will be felt at this time when the country needs all the foodstuffs that can be produced By giving the farmer money to make improvements, buy ma chinery and stock, he is enabled to do mole work and raise more crops than he otherwise would be able to produce.-PatagoniaI

FIFTY-FiFTY BASIS.

Important rulings by the food administration at Washington, affecting consumers, bakeries and eating places in the observ- ance of the new wheat conSer- vation rules, have been received by the federal food administrator for Arizona.
 The official list of authorized substitutes for wheat flour, to be purchased by the consumer r on the fifty fifty basis, has been extended to include not only milo maize and feterita but all grain sorghum Hours and meals. This is a matter in which the extension service of the Univer. sity of Arizona has been vitally interested and the new ruling should greatly stimulate the pro- duction of substitutes peculiarly adaptable to the wheat conser. vation program in this state, it is pointed out.
 Victory bread, which is defiu- ed to mean bread containing twenty per cent or more of sub stitutes for wheat flour, should not be sold at higher price than white bread.

Half Million Dollars Will Be Spent
 at Prescott.

Sanitariums for the treatment of soldiers suffering from tuber- culosis, are to be established at New Haven, Conn, and at Fort Whipple, Prescott, Arizona. in addition to those to be built at Asheville, N. O., and Denver, Colorado, says a dispatch from Washington.
 It is understood that they will cost about $55O, 900 each.
 Whipple Barracks lies about two miles south of Prescott, the line of the Santa Fe, Prescott and Phoenix railroad running through the reservation. These barracks are intimately connect ed with the history of Arizona, having been constructed iu 1S6 and were the headquarters of General Cook during his Indian campaign in this state.
 The barracks consist of sew eral massive stone barracks and more than dozen handsome and substantial officers quarters. A station and postoffice were To- cated on the grounds. The last troops to occupy the barracks were removed about eight years ago, since which time the grounds and buildings have been in charge of caretaker.

REGULATION OF EXPORTS.

Wm. T. Haley, special agent for the. War Trade Board, with headquarters at Nogales, has received the following circular from the War Trade Board, which will be of interest to those desiring export licenses:
 "The War Trade Board has announced that the ruling under which the exportation of food grains, flour, butter and sugar might be licensed by collectors of customs at points of exit, when the quantities shipped were less than 125 bushels of food grains, 25 barrels of flour, 125 pounds of butter, and 25 barrels of sugar, has been re- scinded and withdrawn. In or. der, however, to provide for tbe needs of those persons in con- tiguous countries who have be- come dependent upon the United States for their daily sustenance the board has authorized the collectors of customs, in their discretion, to license the expor- tation of small quantities of foodstuffs and feedstuffs, when such exportation involves mere ly frontier traffic on small scale by persons living near the border, such as that arising out of customary retail purchases for their own needs"

to eat in the city owing to the fact
that the crowds present were much
larger than what was expected. To
avoid this condition of affairs as

quests that whenever practicable
farmers driving to town bring their
lunches with them.
Everything will be free to the Sc

quota. AS soon as they report to
the local board they will be given
ticket which will admit them
without charge to every attraction

also be given ribbon to wear bear

The Tribune desires to call the
attention of it's readers to the fact
THAT this is not a Bowbells celebra=

purpose of making any money from
the crowds who come. Every town
in the county has been asked to
help with the program and the
parade for the purpose of giving
the boys the best possible sendoff.
The boys come from all parts of the
county, and people from all parts
of the county should come and hon

No person will be allowed to make
a cent out Of the celebration. We
are honoring the boys for patriotic
reasons, and not for the purpose of
making money. This is the larg-

county should endeavor to be pres

b0WBELlS To HAVE l43
SELECTED MEN MONDAY

One of the biggest patriotic dem-
onstrations ever held in the state
will be held at Bowbells on Monday
Of next week when the citizens of
Burke county will entertain Sc Sc
lected men from Burke county and
81 selected men from Divide coun-
ty who leave for Camp Custer at
Battle Greek, Mich, that evening
on special train to leave here at
1880 p. m. The Burke county
boys have been called to report to
the local board here during the
forenoon of next Monday, and will
be with us until late that evening,
while the Divide county boys will
arrive here from Crosby on the
branch train, and their coach will be
set off to wait for the train on
which the Burke boys leave.
Although the last patriotic dem
onstration held here on June "a
was pronounced a huge success in
every way, the various committees
in charge of the one to be held on
Monday of next week are putting
forth every effort to make this one
far better than the last. Every
city and village in the county has
been asked to take part in the pro
gram and in the parade, and mos
of them have already signified thei
intention of being present to he'll
entertain the boys.
Two bands have been secured for
this big occasion. The Seimers
band consisting of 80 pieces, and the
Coteau band consisting of 20 pieces
will be on the job all day, making
so trained musicians. There will
be music from the time the crowds
start arriving until late at night.
The parade, which was one of the
chief attractions at the last celebra-
tion here, will be something out of
the ordinary in this instance. Every
town in the county has been asked
to join in the parade with some
kind of a float bearing the name of
the town it represents. Some of
the boys here in town are planning
on constructing huge war tank
run by an automobile and using
stove pipe for cannon, and use this
in the parade. The Red Cross of
the Bowbells and several other cit
les of the county will also be well
represented in the parade. Every
one is cordially invited to join in
the parade with. any kind of pa
triotic float. The parade will take
place at about noon. -- =
-. The program with start immedi--
ately after the noon hour on a plat
form constructed on main street,
and each town in the county will
take part. The speaker of the day
will be Hon. Francis j. Murphy of
Minot, who has done considerable
speaking during patriotic celebra-
tions in various parts of the state
during the past year. It would
pay our readers to drive in to hear
him, even if there were no other
attraction. In addition to this
there will be a program consisting
of music and recitations and other
speakers who will make short talks.
After the program rafting good
ball game between the Portal and
Bowbells teams will take place at
the ball park. There has been con-
siderable rivalry between these two
teams this year, and We are assured
that this game will be a live one.
Those who do not care to see the
ball game may attend the dance
which will be given in the pavilion
at which the Bowbells- -Coteau- or
chestra will furnish the music.
Those who do not care for ball
