 SUES FUR S10,0OO

Believing that the city should pay sl0,000 for his fall from the water wagon, Frank McClintock has brought suit against the city of Phoenix for that amount. The plaintiff, a man of 61, was a driver of the sprinkling wagon last fall when the accident on which the suit is based occurred.
 According to the testimony taken in Judge Lyman's court yesterday, the city provided McClintoclI with d team of fractions horses without warning the driver of the temper of the animals. The plaintiff claims the horses had been in use of the fire department and were utterly unfit for the work occasioned by the transrer. He stated that when driving into the stall the horses became geable and in order to save his life he was com pelled to jump from the wagon and by 50 doing sustained serious injuries.
 The fault the city holds was entirely with the driver. Witnesses for the defendant stated that it was poor driv- ing that caused tSe accident.
 F. H. Larsen and F. C. Struckmeyer | represent McClintock and City At torney Richard F. Sloan and J. E. Nelsof, assistant city attorney are de- lending the city. The case will go to the jury today.

We Are at War and Know it

The moment has come, but we have approached it slowly when America is aroused There are signs everywhere that the nation fully awake and ready We were not at any time asleep but for a long time we did not quite understand. We could not believe what heard of the cruelty and bestiality of Ger many. It seemed impossible to us that any nation any people, should want to subjugae the whole world A year required to bring conviction to us and t has come.
 The changed temper people is manifest at all times now. and in all places Perhaps the strongest surface showing is in the moving picture houses where the loyalty to Old Glory finds it's expres sion in wild cheers and furious hand -clapping in tremendous volume in comparison with the almost staid and polite reception gave our flag and our soldiers when a year ago they were thrown upon Inc screen.
 more quiet but forceful earnest and substantial expression of attitude is found In the increasing enstments for military and naval service in the greater and steadily increasing enthus ssm with which answer the governments calls Or loans, for service and self denial
 The Germans themselves have done much to awaken We were startled into action by the sinking of the Tuscana and we were given a further shock by the submarine visitation to the Atlantic coast. Those things and the daily news of the hero- ism ard the heroic deaths of American boys on the battlefieds of France. brought the war very close to us
 The death of every American soldier and sailor has been sown dragons tooth producing a sudden growth Of armed men. Every act of German fright fitness" has nerved the American heart and arm un- ti now all in the war in the spirit and ready to he in the flesh
 Beware of the anger of a patient man." What. then of the aroused anger of a patient long suffer ing nation?

]. I. ADMINISTERED
 0N MURDER CHARGE
 BY YPHOEN|X JUSTICE

The case of J. T. Holmes, charged with the murder of William Pember- ton, was dismissed by Justice De Souza yesterday.
 The widows of Oscar and William Pemberton and the mother of the two cattlemen who were shot and killed by Holmes were in the court room when the decision was handed down. They remained quietly seated not grasping the significance of the courts ruling for sevesal moments When they realized that Holmes had been eXonerated, the younger women drew their veils more closely and left the room without a word.
 The Pemberton brothers were killed on a Southside ranch some two weeks ago. Holmes killed a COW belonging to the cattlemen when it trespassed on his property. The Pembertons hear ing the shot had advanced on Holmes, who was walking toward his own home. He called to them to stop, but they continued toward him and Will liam was shot. AS he fell Oscar l turned his gun on Holmes who shot and killed him and then fired at Will Ham, who had attempted to rise and had his gun leveled at Holmes. The coroner's inquest held in Tempe eX- onerated Holmes for killing Oscar, re- turning verdict of justifiable homi- eide. In the case of William, no rec | ommendation was made and Holmes was subsequently arrested and charged with murder. After the state rested, J. c. Phillips, for the defense, made a motion to dismiss which was taken under advisement until yesterday. | The case aroused considerable in- terest owing to the fact that all the parties were old time residents who bore excellent regulations.
