LADY REG|STRANTS
 SHOW 40 PER GENT
LADIES OF CLIFTON SHOW IN- TEREST IN APPROACHING PRl- MARES BY REGISTRATION $50 VOTERS QUALIFY.

|. When the clock struck five last Monday evening the books of regis tration for the city primaries were closed. Some little interest was manifested by the voters of the city, and while the registration is consider ably. shy of the high water mark, yet considering all matters fair vote will be cast in the approaching nominat- ing election next Friday.
 It is a gratifying indication, how ever, to see that the ladies of the town manifested such an interest in the registration. Their percentage of the total is forty per cent, which is splendid registration for Clifton, as the total registration was only $50, and there are many unmarried men in this place, who are voters, while it is hardly to be expected that many unmarried ladies would acknow- ledge that they were old enough to vote until after marriage. Of the $50 registrants the list shows that 259 were women, and 391 men. This is just shy one of being forty per cent of the total registration.
 A further analysis of the registra- tion shows that of the voters who reg istered for the primary election 554 registered as Democrats; S4 as Re publicans; nine as Socialists and three as independents Among those who reeistered as Republicans are few ladies, but the majority claiming utilization with that party were of the masculine gender. O Now, if the female registrants will show the same interest in the pri- mary election as has been manifested by them in the registration, it is possible that the best men will be nominated to fill the positions of all dermen. The ladies are perhaps more conscientious in voting for what they believe to be the best material, than are the men, as few of the fair sex have political axes that need sharpening, and vote more patrioti- cally.
 The machinery is now in motion for the selection of the men who will be voted for to fill the positions of alder men. These, in turn, will select one of their number to fill the office of mayor, as we'll as select the men to fill the various other city offices. The ladies hold the balance of power, and it is in their hands to put whom sorv-.r r.. V vii l.. office
 As stated above this number of registrants is some shy of high water mark attained heretofore, when in the last city election (not the primary) ago, according to the city records
 But the nomination of the best ma terial for the interest of the city is

Over in Douglas the other members of a jury on which w. B. Schwamm had been drawn, refused to serve with him because he had refused to invest in the third issue of Lib srty Bonds. The court dismissed the bond stacker with the following statement:
 ''Mr Schwamm," Judge Lockwood
 said, s'you came to Douglas poor man.
 You made, to the knowledge of the court
 and old timers of Douglas large sums,
 much of which you still have, either in E property or money. In the present emer-
 gency you say you cannot help the gov
 ernment. I do not blame these citizens
 of Douglas who say they cannot sit on
 jury with you"
 Slowly but surely public sentiment is be- ing crystalized, and the time will come when the stacker will call for the rocks and noun tains to fall on him, that there might not be left trace or recollection of one so vile as to refuse to respond to his country's call. Verify the stacker will find he has yet ahead of him rough and rocky road

rREENLEE's COUNCIL OF DEFENSE.

The press of Arizona has much to say about the active organization of County Coun- |cils of Defense in the several counties of the 6tate, and incidently Greenlee county is get ting some advertising as being one maintain Ing an active council. The facts at vari
 bnce with the reports. Greenlee citizens held h meeting two months ago. and perfected a temporary organization, but there it came to sudden termination. Inquiries of the tenn 'porary secretary reveals the fact that the coun- |cil here has lapsed into state of coma. All pf which leads one to the conclusion that other councils are perhaps as dormant as that of ,Greenlee, as our council occupies about the same importance in these statements of the activities of the different councils over the state Just why there has been nothing done towards the perfecting of this local organiza- lion is not apparent. That an active council bf defense is necessary at this time no one
 questions, unless it be pro- German.
 Chairman Witt, of the Greenlee County Council, has recently attended meeting of the bounty chairmen of the councils of Arizona,
 and probably absorbed some inspiration that
 will cause him to inject new life into the Green lee council. The local organization needs
 tonic, and all hope that Chairman Witt has
 brought back the proper medicine.
