STATE ASYLUM FOR
T0MDAVIS WHO SHOT
At FRANK M'CABE

Thomas t. Davis, who fired four
shots at Frank McCabe because a
remark of the latter's displeased him,
was committed to the state hospital
yesterday The commitment was
signed by Judge Stanword after an
examination given Davis by DR.. \. B.
Nichols. county health officer.
The shooting affray at the Vendome
hotel on December Is caused a decided
sensation because of the excellent
reputation of Davis, who has lived in
Arizona for 40 years. That he was
violent man had never been suspected
and his apparent attempt to commit
murder created considerable comment
here and in Nogales, where he lived
for a number of years. The arrest of
Davis prompted an investigation. His
peculiarities, which had been declared
to be due to i'll health became so
pronounced from day to day and traits
developed that caused alarm on the
part OF those who knew him. \ man
who had a peculiar adherence for
vile language and who was never
known to swear, the language Davis
has used recently has been sufficient
to excite suspicion as to his sanity.
He has frequently made threats to

| common to him. Davis is So years of

The sweetest love story ever told is

The story has historical significance

IN the multitude OF Investigations
there are some that might well be

The Investigation before the Federal

In this investigation the attorney has
turned prosecutor.
Tho whole purpose seems TO inilame
public opinion against the proprletors
of big packing houses
We cannot have successful prose-
cution of war at home against the
most ruthless enemy that ever cursed
the earth and at the same time conduct
a personal war upon the managers OF
the big vital Industries OF the country.
We cannot have a war abroad Of men
and domestic war at home against
any class of citizen.
The grayerman of Mr.. Heney's ef-
forts seems 90 he charges of Joint own
crship of packing corporations and
lnelc control Of subsidiary corpora

The American people now have little
interest as 90 whether Mr. Armour OF
mister anybody else owns one pack

The truth Is That because Of the
packers weu-equipped machinery for
carrying on their business the meat
supply Of the army has not failed and
the meat supply of the country has not
been threatened by lack Of tran-p -poria-
tion or inability OF men TO handle the

any Of the packers it might be well TO
give them credit for keeping the meat
supply Of the country moving and for
the fun accomplishment of the business
they are organized TO conduct.
What the people want is plenty of
meat as as cheap prices as possible un-

With hogs selling at from isc to 2Oc
