Coming Home to Enlist


 Alderman George R. Gamble is in receipt of letter from his son, w. B. Gamble, of Brazil, who states that he is soon to arrive in the states to en- list in some branch of the national army Recently the Copper Era stated that all of the Gamble boys were in the service, but this is one the paper overlooked. w. E. has been in Brazil for some time, where he holds position with the Standard Oil company which pays him $5,000 a year, but this he is giving up to enlist in the service of his country. Perhaps there are more patriotic families than the Gamble family, but certainly they are not those who arc adopting all manner of subterfuges to prove their exemptions.

J. A. McWitIiams Withdraws-

The Copper Era is authorized to an- nounce that MT. J. A. McWilliams has formally withdrawn from the race for the nomination for the office of Justice of the Peace of Precinct No. 1. The withdrawal of MT. McWil- Hams leaves only two contestants in the field, that of the present encum- bent, Dave Address, and Harry Moses. No three cornered fight any longer, just a choice between these two.

DUNCAN MILLER
 PAYS FINE IF S25
OTHERS PUNISHED IN VARIOUS SUMS BY FOOD ADMiNISTRA- TOR-LOWELL DRUGGIST DE- PRlVED OF SUGAR

The State Food Administrator has been busy recently. Several charged with violations of the food regulations have received fines, and other pen. alties.
 The case of H. B. McDaniel, the Duncan miller, who sold one hundred pounds of whole wheat -four to GUS toner, without having a permit, and without taking the customers state u.ent that he was already supplied with an equal quantity of substitutes was fined S2t, and his food license CT dered withheld until the fine was paid
 As the time of the alleged violation Food Administrator Minson went to Duncan and investigated the case, the particulars of his investigation appear cd in the Copper Era at the time, so most of the readers of this paper are familiar with these proceedings.
 Others who were called upon the carpet and penalties imposed are the following:
 F. w. Ritter. a prominent druggist of Lowell, was fined S100 by the state food administration after ft- viewing the evidence held before R.,h ert Rae, food adm inistrator for Co., chise county. Besides having to pay the fine of s1O0 the further peral- tv of being ort off from sugar fer the duration of the var, was placci upon the Lowell druggist.
 In the hearing against liter it de
 ,.l. [" q t;:at ht reported C., .n. s-'n that he had no sugar on hand, but subsequent developments established the fact that he had 2,700 ponds. which was regarded by the State Food Administrator as clear case of boarding. His fine goes to the Red Cross Society.
 Tom Colakas of the Lyric Confec- tionery of Bisbee, is alleged to have consumed in his business certain su- gar in his possession which had been requisitioned by the government. A fine of S10 was assessed against him for the benefit of the Red Cross.
 Blu. it seems that those who violate the fool regulations are not the only ones who are called upon the carpet. Reports from the Jerome district has reached the Food Administrator that the restaurants and boarding houses in that district have advanced the rates of board since the recent wage advance was announced. These of lenders and all public eating houses, have been notified by the enforce ment division to reduce their rates in accordance with those in effect be- fore the wage advance was announc- ed Representatives of the food ad- ministration have been instructed to soc that these orders are obeyed.
 Those who are profiteering in the necessaries of life may find them ~elves called before the food admins traticn any dav. But it strikes the Copper Era that these are really minor offenses when compared to those who profiteer in wheat sub etitutes This paper does not know where the blame lies, but when the government compells the people to use a substitute for any article of food, the same authority should see that those substitutes are not ad- vanced in price to the extent the peo- n'o are forced to pay at this time. Notwithstanding the price of corn is steadily falling. corn meal holds its nigh level without any fluctuation, unless it be upward.

MOEUR AND COBB
 CHANGES LINEUP
WITHDRAWAL OF TWO FOR GOV. ERNOR CHANGES COMPLEXION OF POLITICAL CONTEST SEP TEMeER 10.

The announcement yesterday of the withdrawal of Hon Lamar Cobb from the contest for the Democratic nomi- nation for Governor of Arizona at the approaching primary election, puts a different aspect on the political situa- ation. AS the former lineup stood matters were somewhat complicated, but the race is now narrowed down to three, Fred Suter, Sidney P. Osborn, and Fred Golfer, with chances seem ingly about equally divided in this three cornered race. Each is doing his best to get away from the wire first, but the people are looking on with interest, and tranquility, with no two to one money offered. In fact it looks like a "horse race" as the entries now stand, but who can tell but one of these favorites may be pulled before the flag falls on Septem- Der 10. At any rate the finish prom ises to be thriller, and the grand stand will be crowded.
 Osborn Visits Greenlee.
 Hon. Sidney P. Osborn, one of the survivors after the withdrawal Of Moeur and Cobb, arrived in Clifton on Thursday evening in the interest of his candidacy for the Democratic nomination, and was busy since his ar rival meeting as many of the voters as possible. After spending the day here he also will visit Morenci and Metcalf before returning home Sun day.
 MT. Osborn is most affable gentle man with whom it is pleasure to meet He is the present Secretary of State, and his administration of this office is a credit to his efficien- cv. for as his campaign matter says, he has conducted the office on busi ness principles, which he promises to carry into the governors office, for conducting the affairs of the state, should he be chosen as the chief exc cutive of Arizona.
 Amended Democratic Ticket
 That all may be familiar with the nolitical lineup of candidates for state and county offices, the Demo cratic ticket is shown in full on an- other page in this issue.
 Cobb Withdraws in Favor of Osborn
 Phoenix, Arizona, Aug. 22, 191S MT. Editor:
 '1' desire to announce to the public and especially to those most loyal friends who have been supporting me in the contest for the Democratic nomination for Governor that I am not financially able to place my can didacy before the people in such man ner as would warrant asking them to continue their support. Therefore, in justice to them with assurances of my most sincere appreciation for their efforts in my behalf, I with draw from the contest that they may lend their assistance to such candid ate as may have a better chance of winning than I.
 I hope that the fight I have been making may have some small inf1u- ence in elevating the standard of polf- tical affairs in our great state of Arizona.
 Relieving that the interest of the whole people of Arizona will be served best by the nomination of Sid ney P. Osborn, I intend to cast my vote for him.
 Yours very truly, LAMAR COBB."

PURCHASE SUGAR
FROM ONE STORE

In order TO prevent housewives
from going from one store to an
other shopping for sugar, the Hi
nois food administration is distrib-
J4tiHg posters to be displayed in
grocery stores, requesting that
sugar be purchased only at the
store where regular trading is
done
The poster points out that the
sugar allotments of all stores are
based upon the number of persons
regularly supplied there, and that
no one should expect to purchase
sugar at a store where they are not
q regular customer.
If you do not cooperate in this, -
the poster says. you will be dis
loyal to your government which is
protecting your supplies, and you
may cause a reduction in all sugar
alIotments.

SMALL CHANGE
IN FINAL COUNT
But Little Variance From Unofficial
Election Returns of Wednesday
Discovered.
ELECTION SURPRISES APPEAR
Wheelan Receives f56 Votes on
Prohibition Ticket-County Is
Strong for Propositions.

Official election returns compiled
yesterday at the court house differ
but little from the unofficial count
Of Wednesday for Rock Island
county.
Senator Lewis. Democratic candl-
cate for reelection, as was the case
throughout the state. ran way
ahead of his ticket in this county,
although losing by a considerable
plurality to MediII Mccormick, Re

One OF the surprises Of the cleo
tiOn was the number of votes re-
Ceived by Henry Wheelan, nominal
ed ia the primaries on the Prohibi-
ton ticket for congressman by a
single vote. The official count gives
him as the choice Of loo voters for
congressman.
on the county ticket Nels A. Lar
son was the choice of 2,7l6 in Mo
line for county judge, while the
same number backed Henry B,
Hubbard for county clerk
Where there was Democratic op-
position for county Office, Hubbard
obtained the greatest majority, out
dlstancing Flanagan, Democrat, by
4.I70 votes. Jacob 5. Wigers, Re
publican candidate for sheriff, was
next highest. with a plurality over
John H COburn. Democrat, OF 4,l3b-
The heavy vote pOIled by the So
Cialists, especially in Moline, was
also somewhat OF a surprise.
Rock Island county was strong
regarding support of the three
propositions submitted at the polls
on the little ballot, lettering the
average state ratio in this respect.
While the state endorsed the good
roads bond issue on an average of
nearly four to one, voters of this
county returned a majority in its
favor of about twelve 10 one. About
nine voted yes TO every one no on

THE FUEL SITUATION

A coal shortage is expected next win
ter even worse than last. So far as per-
sonal comfort goes, the American people
can get along, although poorly heated
houses in q cold climate mean great suf-
fering. People can close up portions Of
their houses even more than they did
last year. In case of extreme pinch,
many Of them could live in boarding
houses and hotels for few weeks. 3
A shortage Of coal in the industries is
still more serious. No war work plant
should be allowed to fall short Of its coal
supply. It's full amount should be deliv-
cred in good season, with strict injunc-
tions that it be not wasted.
There is a vast supply Of wood which
can be drawn on for the relief of most
sections. Some of our men who have
gone to France to help in numbering OPP
erations, write home describing the scru-
pul0us care with which the French save
their fuel. All the branches of trees
are saved and trimmed down and piled
up in assorted sizes. In this country that
kind of thing is allowed to rot in the
woods, sometimes burned to get rid of it.
There is vast amount of good fuel wood
trees, and this material should be saved
more carefully.
The majority Of the American people
now burn coal rather than wood in their
cook stoves, through the summer, which
greatly reduces the cosl supply. Wood Il
apt to be higher now than coal There is
need for the organization Of very large
gangs Of wood choppers TO 60 into the
woodland tracts, and cut fuel for next
winter. The work ought to begin at
once 80 That the wood win have some
chance to dry by next winter. Every cord
Of wood that is cut saves . ton Of coal,
and helps keep our industries going and
our people warm.

THE CALCULATIONS

4 What Is the significance to the COM
nnunity Of the great army Of young peo-
pie graduated each June from our schools
and colleges? Is it simply that these
students have acquitted themselves well
in certain conventional studies that our
pedagogues say they must learn? I
The real meaning Of graduation day Is,
that these young folks bring new REIN
forcement to battle in the age long fight
Of truth against error. Mere knowledge
Of conventional studies does not amount
to much. The Germans have had even
more thorough education than ours. But
it was handed out to them by persons in
terested to have them learn only certain
things.
Our education is built on different
foundation. It is the free study Of truth.
Never have the facts Of history been
camouflaged in our schools. Our stud
ents have come in contact with the real
wisdom Of the world the shame of his
tory have not been imposed on them.
As consequence wherever education
goes, you get better government, high
er standard of morals more community
spirit and more commercial prosperity.
If it was only possible for all Of our peo-
pie to have 9 full high school education,
and If half Of us could have also col
lege or technical education, corruption
and inefficiency in government would
mostly disappear. Our people would dis
lance the world industrially. Where edu-
cation exists, the demagogue finds no ig-
norant masses Of people who can be i'm
posed upon by his frauds.
Let US then welcome with glad hand
clasp these young people who have fitted

THE BETTER WA Y

The path back to cheerfulness, If spon-
taneous cheerfulness itself be lost, is to
act and speak q If cheerfuhess were al
ready there. II such conduct does not
soon make one feel cheerful. it is to be
feared that nothing else can. So, to feel
brave, we must oct q il we were brave
use all our win to that end. Again, the
only way to feel kindly towards a person
to whom we have been inimical is to
smile more or less deliberately, to make
sympathetic inquiries, and to force our
selves to say genial things,
One hearty laugh together will bring
enemies into closer communion Of the
heart than hours spent on both sides in
inward wrestling with the demon Of UNI
charitable feeling. To wrestle with bad
feeling may merely pin the attention on
it and Keep it fastened in the mind, but
if we act as though from some better
feeling the old bad feeling viii perhaps
soon fold its tents like an Arab and then
silently steal away.
Sunshine warns and make crops grow.
Farmers all know this, Of course. Why
not then apply this-fact to the man in
public office and, instead Of raining criti-
cism on him, pass a little sunshine along.
It surely. would do no harm and it may
do whole lot Of good.

INEXPERIENCED HELP

& All classes OF employers are now up
against the problem Of working in lot
Of inexperienced help. Two million men
have left their jobs to serve in the army.
Another million will leave very S0oii.
These places must all be filled. Green
hands are everywhere trying to learn,
new tasks. Employers and foreman lose
patience. They sometimes. say that it is
useless to put on inexperienced. help, be-,
cause it takes so much time to show them.
Farmers have often been reluctant to
put on inexperienced help. They say that
farming is skilled labor, and that it takes
more time to show high school boy or
recruit from the cities, than the work
they can do is worth. n 70
No man ever makes big success un-
less he is willing to put on and break in
new helpers as needed. If he and his
managers try to attend to all Of the de-
tails themselves, because it is easier than
to teach subordinates, they can never do
any very large business. The details
will be well done, but they will get no
quantity production. They simply must
train in good helpers, at the cost Of both
er and effort, SO that their own minds
and time can be free to grasp the big
problems.
We are now getting large output in
the shipyards. It was mostly done with
green help that year ago knew nothing
about ships. Similarly in all parts Of the
munition business. Breaking in q lot Of
raw help makes the work 90 slow for a
time. But we can secure no big national
output without it. Our business men and
farmers must patiently give their time
to it. s. .
The new help takes up new tasks quick
er than one could expect. They all want
to learn, they are trying hard, and in
few weeks can 90 it much alone. So let
not the farmer turn down with such
scorn the students and others whho offer
for the first time to WELD the hoe.

ECONOMY OF VICTORY

No matter what this war costs the gov
eminent and the people Of the United
States in the way Of money, it is going
to be much cheaper to win this war than
to lose it. The commercial and financial
losses that would follow q German vic
tory are not to be calculated. All that we
spent would be lost, indemnities beyond
calculation would have to be paid, and
along with thes closes would come con-
tinuous loss in foreign commerce which
would spell disaster.
With these material losses we would
lose our national liberty and independ-
ence, our power TO secure our intefna-
tionalrightsss 0uf right to live in world
ruled by the dictates Of humanity and
civilization. SaS
