five men to this camp, and twenty two
succeeded, so that the showing made is
ords made by students from any col
lege.
Most of the men have not yet re-
ceyed their commissions, but will act as
sergeants attached to regiments and as
signed to companies until vacancies in
the commissioned grades occur. This is
in common with the men from all other
colleges. However, three men have been
actually commissioned and are now on
special duty with the engineering units.
Three others are already in training
school in France. II is understood that
they will receive their commissions at
once, if they have not already.
OF the three men who failed to win
commissions, one has been named to at
tend the fourth camp which is to open
soon. He was freshman with but two
and a half months training at Norwich
and he was also laid up two weeks in the
hospital while in camp. In spite of this
he made such a good showing that the
authorities awarded MIN second chance
Five other Norwich men were in train
ing camps in other parts of the country.
They have not yet been heard from, but
it is expected that good percentage
of these also made good.

Ancient Enolish Tree.

carefully preserved with zinc plates
where the damp might gather, and the
branches are held up with iron bars,
but it bears a good1y crop of leaves,
and seems good for many years Of life.

Monkeys are born in almost as help

For the first fortnight after birth they

French Drapery.

The French are pastmasters in the
art Of draping fabrics. A Parisienne
has truthfully said that French taste
is distinctly feminine and as clear as
the Gallo language itself, says an ex-
change. 1t possesses the genius OF
curves, the secret of what is graceful
and the intuition Of what brings about
harmony. These characteristics are
all to be found in French art, French
industries and French creations.
1t is in France that we find the
work Of the most skilful hands, the
most artistic jewelry, the richest
clothes and the most beautiful hats. In
foreign countries the idea Of ugliness
or bad taste is never associated with
the women Of France.

There are enough members of
the legislature favorable to a
repeal of the law abolishing cap-
ital punishment to initiate a
resolution asking that it be put
on the ballot for the November
elections, but there are not votes
enough to pass it over Governor
Hunts veto, and there is another
element in the senate who says
it cannot come up at this special
session because it is not a war
measure. When four peace ofic-
ers are killed in cold blood by
draft evaders it would seem very
much as though it was a war
measure of the first rank. Gov.
Hunt is not serving the best in
terests of the state standing in
the way of a submission of the
question of a restoration of CAPT.
tai punishment, and the only
people who are pleased with his
attitude are the amateur senti-
mental criminologists and The
criminal thugs who may find it
convenient to kill sometimes in
plying their trade, or kill an
officer who attempts to arrest
them.

Lamar Cobb, formerly state
engineer, who resigned his job
rather than associate with the
gang who made up the commits
sion on state institutions, has
come out with his announcement
that he is a candidate for the
democratic nomination for gov
ernor. He has prepared a plat
form that is sizzling with invec-
tive and satire directed at all the
other candidates of both parties,
and among other things suggests
that a candidate for governor
should represent something more
than brass, Drawn, buncome or
embonpoint; but after relieving
his mind of these sentiments it
must be admitted that Mr.. Cobb
sets forth several good reasons
why he should be the successful
candidate, provided, of course,
he square his words with deeds
performed. That he belongs to
an ancient and almost extinct
age of politicians is evident when
he says he believes a public office
is a public trust, and then he
thinks a 100 per cent American
as governor would enforce econ
omy and efficiency in the state
administration as the best method
of aiding the government in the
war. A new departure for a
candidate is his declaration that
if elected he would select four
prominent men equally repre-
sentative of capital and labor to
act as his advisers during bis
term of office, and that there
will be no invisible government
debating to him. Mr.. Cobb will
probably not be nominated, be-
cause he is too independent to
meet the approval of the corpora
tion politicians, who are the
modern Richelieus, who have nc
ambitions to be kings, but king
makers who will do their bidding.

When the railroads of the
country were under private con-
troll political demagogues all over
the land were riding into office
on the shibboleth of reducing
freight rates, and figures were
presented showing the enormous
profits the railroads were wiring
ing from the public. Now with
the same roads under govern
ment control Director General
McAdoo has issued his order for
a fiat increase of 25 per cent in
freight rates, and passenger
rates are restored to 3 cents,
For the past twenty years the
railroads have been crippled and
harassed by vicious legislation
by ranting politicians seeking
personal glory as the guardian of
the peoples rights, until railroad
investments were a drug on the
market, and many roads were
forced into the hands of receiv-
ers because of their inability to
float bonds or keep up the inter-
est on bonds already issued. Now
with the government in control
it is found necessary to raise the
toll on both freight and passen-
ger traffic to prevent a deficit at
the end of the year.

A number of newspapers are

menting the fact that the gov
ernment does not visit summary
punishment on the profiteers on
the army, after reading the re-
port that certain packing COM
panies have been furnishing
tainted meat on their govern
ment contracts. Why waste val
liable space. Social caste regu-
lates the degree of crime in this
country. If the contractor who
furnished the tainted meat had
been a little local butcher he
would have been hailed before a
court and sent to the penitentiary
as quickly as the wheels of the
law would turn, but when the
offenders are the big packers.

merce. the question has to weave
its tedious way through a con-
gressional investigation covering
year or two until it is forgotten
by the public, and then a report
is submitted absolving the offend
ers from any responsibility. In

kings can do no wrong, and in
the democracy of the United
States our millionaire criminals
can do no wrong that is visible
to the courts.

Registration June 5th.

The Secretary of War author
ICES the following:
With the signing by President
Wilson of the bill and proclama-
ton designating Wednesday,
June 5, as the day on which all
men who have reached the age
of 2l since last June 5 shall
register for military service,
Provost Marshal General Crowd
er's Office Immediately began
preparations for the enrolment
of the men. Instead of using
the election machinery as was
done last year, Gen. Crowder
will call upon the local boards.
1t is believed that their expert
ence during the past year has
peculiarly fitted them to handle
the new registration economical
ly and efficiently.
The law provides that every
young man in the United States
who has reached the age of Fl
years since June 5. 1917, or will
reach that age on or before June
S, 1918, must register. The only
exceptions are in the cases of
men who are actually in active
military or naval service.
Divinity students and students
of medicine must register.
Under the terms of the law
signed by President Wilson on
Monday students who were pre-
pairing for the ministry in
recognized theological or div
Unity schools and students who
were preparing for the practice
of medicine and surgery in recog-
nized medical schools on May 20,
1918, are exempt from the draft.
However, the law does not re-
lieve such students from the duty
of registering on Wednesday,
June 5. Registration comes first,
exemption afterwards.
1t is necessary to go to the
registration place in person. Any
man who expects to be absent
from home on Wednesday. June
5, 1918, should go at once to the
office of the local board where
he expects to be and have his
registration card filled out and
certified. He must then mail
this card to the office of the local
board having jurisdiction of the
place wherein he permanently
resides, and in view of the fact
that this card must be received
by his home local board on or
before June 5, it is essential that
any one who expects to be away
from home on that date arrange
for his registration Immediately.
Anyone who is sick on June 5
and unable to present himself in
person at the office of the local
board may send some competent
friend, who may be deputized by
the clerk to prepare his card.
Failure to register on June 5
constitutes a misdemeanor pun
ishable by Imprisonment for one
year, and may result, further
more, in the loss of valuable
rights and privileges and imme-
diate induction into military
service.

The democratic newspapers are
putting in considerable time ira
ducing Ex-Governor Tom Camp
bell, but people who think with
out partisan bias know he meas
ures up good and strong with
the best men the democratic
party in this state can produce.
During his few months as gov
ernor when most of his time was
devoted in an attempt to keep
the democratic politicians from
jobbing him out of an election
honestly won, he made just as
good a record as Gov. Hunt in
handling the affairs of the state.
The only enemies he made were
the democrats who were pried
loose from their jobs and had
their names stricken from the
pay roll, and the beneficiaries of
the job-holding aristocracy. The
decent, law-abiding element of
all political parties were satisfied
with his administration during
the time he was in office, and
none of these can now be found
with the gang swapping at his
heels. Mr.. Campbell will be a
credit to Arizona as it's governor.
and if he is a candidate this fall
he will probably be elected by a
majority SO large that the office
cannot be stolen from him by a
OF of crooked election officers in
Cochise county.
