NAMES HUN. J. w. ROSS. ID SUPREME BENCH;
 BROTHER THERE N0W

Governor Hunt yesterday offered to Hon. J. w. Ross of Bisbee the appoint ment to the supreme bench to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of Justice Franklin. The reply of Judge Ross stating whether he would accept or decline the appointment had not been received last night.
 In the case of ihs acceptance, the supreme court of Arizona will be unique in that two brothers will be on the bench, for Judge Ross is younger brother of Justice Henry D. Ross, who has served in the supreme court ever since the admission of Arizona to state hood.
 Judge Ross has been a resident of Arizona for many years. He practiced law in Williams until about ten years ago and then went to Bisbee, where he has since practiced with great success.
 He was nominated by the republi- cans for the superior court of Cochise county at the first primary after ad- mission, and notwithstanding the over Whelming normal democratic majority in that county, he was beaten at the - election by Judge Sutter by the mar rOWeSt of margins

FOOD PRICES WILL
 MT DROP AT ONCE

WASHINGTON, Nov. 11.-Immedi- ate dropping of food prices as a result of the conclusion of an armistice can not be expected. Food Administrator Hoover declared tonight in a state ment, which added that while the prices of some foodstuffs will de- crease, others will increase.
 with the war effectually over said Mir. Hoover, i've enter a new eco homie era and it's immediate effect on prices is difficult to anticipate. The prices of some food commodities may increase. but others will decrease, be- cause with liberated shipping accumu- lated stocks in the southern hemis- phere and the far east will be avail able. The demands upon the United States will change in character, but not in volume"
 All activities of the food administra- ton will be continued through the ar mistice period, said Mir. Hoover, add ing that there will be no relaxation of efforts to keep down profiteerins to the last moment
 "The maintenance of embargo he continued. will prevent depletion Of our stocks by hungry Europe below our necessities, and anyone who con- templates speculation in food against the needs of those people can well be warned of the prompt action of the government

 was sure tickled at the job you folks set out for the judges this last week These pompOus old birds think they're a wonderful bunch of intelli- gence and lot of things like that So far they have worked pretty well in harmony and they have gotten to think of themselves as the harmonious trio but you-all succeeded in inserting notes of disCord, various and sundry, all right. just as I asked you to. Folks, it sure looked like they would bust the piano for a while, but finally got through in semi-peace by calling for help.
 You-all sure did yourselves mighty proud. with the finest bunch of an- svers yet received. It's shame there aren't more prizes to pass out among 70 much intelligence and discernment. but, folks, it's still one, two, three and out even though a lot of your answers look like prize winners. And that's where those judges mixed their opin- ions.
 But. fokses. the money went the right way at that. A careful scruntiny of inc answers could really cause no other conclusion to be arrived at.
 I'm glad that number five didn't cause you any more trouble than it did. You see, that Dago hombre was standing at my elbow when l made up those questions, and, instead of those numbers being g apart they were 1.032 apart. but it didn't feaze .sou-all at all But it jolted me when ! saw what a dumb head l had been. And then there were two questions with two possible answers. but that was rather immaterial and carried no weight in the judging.
 There are some of you folks who have been trying week after week without getting in the money that pretty nearly landed this week. But YOU were just a little shade behind the lucky ones. For instance, little Elizabeth Baughn of Florence, William Speer of Ray and Donald Martin. Then there's little Louize Tetlaff of Peoria who is clever and original, and another from Blanche Coyle. Don't give up my dears, for the next time you may be the lucky ones.

COR COLDS AND GRIPPE
DOCTORS FIND REMEDY

Physicians and druggists are elated
over the fact that they have at last
found a genuine and dependable rem
edy for colds sore throat, influenza,
and al grippe. For years they have
depended chiefly upon the old style
calomel, which is certainly fine, but
fortunately many people would not
take it because of its nauseating and
dangerous qualities.
Now that the pharmaceutical chem
lists have perfected nausealess Gallo
mel, called "Calotabs' whose medicin-
al virtues are vastly improved, the doc
tors and druggists are claiming that
Calotabs are the ideal remedy to
abort a cold over night and cut short
an attack of sore throat or la grippe.
They are also finding it most effective
as the first step in the treatment Of
pneumonia.
One Calotab on the tongue at bed
time with a swallow of water,-that's
all. No salts, no nausea nor the
slightest interference with your eat
ing or your work and pleasure, The
next morning your cold has vanish
ed and your whole system is purified
and refreshed, Calotabs are sold only
in original sealed packages; price
thirty-five cents. Your druggist re-
commends and guarantees them by
refunding the price if you are nvt de-
lighted. Advt.

If President Wilson needs our cot
ton to run this war, he is perfectly
welcome to take it, We are with him
to victorious conclusion, but it has
not been shown and it can not be
shown that it is necessary to do this
in winning the war Ali the world
needs this small cotton crop, and as
soon as the end of the war is in sight
this crop of cotton will bring high
price and we will for the first time in
fCrty years make some money to pay
cur debts and improve our condition.
Il President Wilson allows the spin
ners and gamblers of America and
the European powers, who are anxi-
Gus for cotton to take it from US at
prevailing prices, or if he allows
Baruch and his speculative committee
to keep talking it down, the President
is badly misled or does not appreciate
our interest and faithful service to
him and his party The damage has
already been done, the fight must be
made and neither man nor party
names should be considered. Men and
parties may come and go but princi
pies must stand fer ever.
Let the newspapers have their say,
and the old rarty leaders abuse me
all they may The world is fighting
for freedom. GeoI gians must do SO,
too. and they mrst do it from now
until the November election or leave
the yoke of cppre sion upon their
children's necks for another half CEN
