AT THE CARRICK.

First nighters had a Jolly time at the
Garrick Theatre last night, and they
enjoyed the bill immensely. Herman
Becker's big musical comedy, sherman
Was Right" proved a winner. The
company IS composed OF witty come
dians and pretty girls, who know how
TO sing and act. 10 Is well balanced
and meritorious. The musical numbers
are in keeping with the military and
patriotic atmosphere. The act Is given
in three scenes, all Of which have 20 do
with the war. and they are quite elab-
crate. James Grady and Company were
very funny in THE Toll Bridge a
rolllcking comedy, in which Mr.. Grady
was ably assisted by Nan Cole and
Madallne Clark. The seven Hawaiians
gave A good account Of themselves and
got lots Of applause for their excellent
singing and instrumental music, IN
which instruments play a conspicuous
part. Joe Bartons bicycle performance
was skillful and very funny, for he Is
a comedian as well as a bicycle rider
Of unusual ability. a lively minstrel
performance was given by Johnson
Brothers and Johnson, all Of whom are
clever comedians and singers, with the

IpHoIDs SUNDAY CLOSING.

WASHINGTON, Jan. s-The Supreme
Court has refused to review the attacks
on Mayor Th0mpsOns order closing
saloons in Chicago on Sunday.
The proceedings, based largely on a
contention that the Illinois "tippling
house act" contained a certain comma
which made legal Sunday selling Of
liquors in Chicago, attracted wide at
tention.
Henry w. Boerner, a Chicago saloon
keeper, asked and the Illinois courts
refused an injunction to restrain the
police and the mayor from interfering
with Boerner's sale Of liquor on Sunday.
The Supreme Court upheld the Illinois
courts by refusing TO review the case.

for every ninety meals served.
In addition thereto not to serve
in the aggregate a total Of any
products containing more than
two ounces of wheat flour to any
one guest at any one meal.
To reconcile both these re-
quirements it is ruled that no
wheat products shall be served
unless ordered and the observ-
ance of wheatless days and meals
is to be continued. By wheatless
is meant no wheat flour in any
food served except that contained
in victory bread. Thus wheatless
days and meals become optional
in households but remain obliga-
tory as before in public eating
places and clubs.

A paying teller in the fiscal
department of the Federal Re-
serve Bank at San Francisco has
been arrested charged with en-
bezzling SIP, 900 worth of Liberty
Bonds, and his wife is held as an
accomplice. After the embezzle-
ment is made known it is dis
covered that the clerk was going
under an assumed name when
he is employed. He was unknown
to the officers of the bank at the
time he was employed, further
than that he claimed to have
been employed by A. Mitchell
Palmer, custodian of enemy
property, and had been employed
in a confidential capacity by sew
eral Senators and Congressman.
He probably also represented
himself as being a good democrat,
and wanted an office. If this is
a sample of the efficiency dis
played in the management of the
Federal Reserve Banks perhaps
it would be we'll if they were
turned over to private ownership.
Putting smooth talking strang-
er into the responsible position
of paying teller in a reserve bank
is the height of imbecility. If
political affiliation is to govern in
employing bank assistants in
stead of character, reputation
and ability we can expect just
such results as the above case.

The state of Wisconsin has
evidently decided to continue as
a member of the United States.
The returns from the special
election for United States Sena-
tor to fill the vacancy caused by
the death of Senator Husting,
show that Congressman Lenroot,
the republican candidate, has
carried the state by $4,000 ma
jority. Lenroot will give Wis
consin some loyal representation
and it is said he is ready to vote
to unseat La Toilette, who has
brought disgrace to the state by
his disloyal actions in antagon-
izing the war.

w. H. Hays. the new Chairman

w. H. Hays, the new chairman
Of the republican national COM
mittee is making a tour of the
western states to get in touch
with the several state organiza-
tions, and he is billed to be in
Phoenix on April 20, at which
time there will probably be a
meeting of the faithful from over
the state. The republican party
in Arizona is sadly in need of
rejuvenation, and if a few of the
barnacles and corporation hire
lings can be scraped loose from
the hull of the good old ship she
may yet ride into harbor with a
victory. The republican party
must not be used as the shield
and buckler for the special in
terests, the tenets of the party
were built as a bulwark for all
the people who believe in equal
opportunity and equal protection
for the citizens of this country,
and they must not be sacrificed
on the altar for campaign con-
tributions from the corporations
and special interests. A victory
won at such sacrifice is only a
victory for the unscrupulous poll
ticians whose only interest is in
the spoils of office, while the
rank and file only too soon learn
they have been victimized and
the solidarity of the party organ
ization becomes weakened and
disintegrated by lack of con-
fidence in the leadership. Rather
a dozen defeats with honor than
a single success bought at a sac
rifice of principle.

The citizens of Williams are
out after the Kaiser and his do
minions with a pledge in which
the signers agree never to pur-
chase anything made in Ger
If all the allied nations
would sign such an agreement
and live up to it faithfully until
such time as the German people
arose in their might and over
turned their autocratic govern
ment and established a democracy
of the people, the reign of the
Hohenzollerns and Prussianism
would be short-lived.

The citizens of Holbrook can
not be charged with a lack of
loyalty. When the fake kilograms
that passed over the wires last
week were received in that little
city the populace turned out to
celebrate the killing and capture
of nearly a million Huns. School
was dismissed, and with a brass
band to lead a big parade of
citizens was formed and marched
through the streets. In the eve
ming the citizens assembled again
and hung the Kaiser in efigy.
Unfortunately the report was
false, but the spirit Of the people
is commendable as a demonstra-
tion that no German sympathiz-
ers are harbored in that COM
munity.

New Wheatless Schedule.

Beginning last Monday, the
revised wheat-saving program,
as outlined by the United States
food administration in press dis
patches Of last week, will go into
effect in the homes and public
eating places of Arizona.
This program calls for the most
drastic steps yet undertaken to
conserve the scant supply of
wheat available until next har-
vest. Under it's provisions every
person will be limited to one and
and a half pounds of wheat a
week. Details of this new con-
servation drive are made clear in
the following principles laid
down by the United States food
administrator and which will be
adhered to in it's enforcement in
Arizona:
. First: Households shall adopt
the maximum ration for wheat
flour (or it's wheat equivalent
contained in such wheat products
and victory bread, macaroni,
breakfast cereals, etc. } of one
and one-half pounds of wheat
flour per person, per week. OBJ
servances of wheatless days and
meals will aid households in
meeting this new requirement,
but are no longer obligatory.
Second: Public eating places
and clubs shall adopt the same
principle as households. which in
its practical application to such
places means that they shall
adopt the maximum ration of
wheat flour Tor its wheat equiva-
lent contained in such wheat pro-

In commenting on the San
Diego drunk Of certain state off
cials the Miami Silver Belt says
"we shall probably not hear the
last of it until after the election. }"
And why should it be forgotten
until then? Do the people in
Arizona want to re-elect such
men to fill the state offices? Is
the brand of loyalty at such a
low ebb in Arizona that the peo-
pie will be satisfied to have as
state officials men who would de-
bauch their soldiers, who are be-
ing fitted and disciplined in camp
to fight our battles in France?

The news comes to this country
that Gen. Pershing with his 100,- :
900 men have been given the
privilege of getting into action
with the Germans, and are now
moving up to the front rank to
join with the French army. The
Kaiser has said the entrance of
the United States in the war was
of small moment, and within the
next month or two he will have
plenty of opportunity to revise
his verdict.

Navajo county to date has pur-
chased only $4190 worth of war
saving stamps, and her allotment
is $267, $50. What is the matter?
Are you afraid to loan SIS or $40

half per cent compound interest,
to help finance the war for dem
ocracy and liberty?
The Winslow mail., 1918-04-05

Congress has finally woke up
to a realization that some severe
penalties must be inflicted on
pro-German sympathizers, and
bill has been introduced provid-
ing penalties of Imprisonment of
not exceeding twenty years, and
fines not exceeding $4,000 for
every person convicted of spread
ing German propaganda to dis
courage or interfere with the
prosecution of the war. The
bill will not make loyal citizens
out of this class of citizens, but
it will have the effect of tightly
closing up their perpetually wag-
ging mouths, which will give
them an outward semblance of
being good citizens even though
they are arch traitors at heart.
In the meantime every commun-
ity should have a well-organized
vigilance committee to supple
ment the law by tarring and
feathering the people who insist
on manifesting their disloyalty
to the country. The United States
is in this war to win, and we ex-
pect to stay at the job until it is
accomplished, and the people who
are not in favor of that plan
should leave the states while the
leaving is good. The limit of
tolerance has been reached, and
the time for action is at hand.

Some idea of German efficiency
can be gathered by the news
that the dead on the battlefield
during the last drive Of the Ger
man army were stripped of their
clothing, and left lying naked on
the ground. The clothing can be
used again by the Germans in
equipping other soldiers. The
dead are no longer of any use to
the Kaiser.

The police in Los Angeles
raided an alleged filtration
school" where young girls were
given instruction in vampiring.
There is no use for such a school
in this day and age, when girls
in their early teens know more
of the ways of the world than
their grandmothers. This is a
swift age in which we are living,
and many of our girls are now
travelling so fast their morals
can't keep pace with them.

The market indications are
that wool-growers will receive
somewhere near 60c a pound for
their wool this year, which ought
to help some in these days of the
high cost of living. But the big
money is not made by the pro-
ducers when we consider that
yarn made from the wool retails
for $4.75 pound. There are
some fellows standing between
the wool-grower and the ultimate
consumer who are getting a
handsome rake-off for tn eir
share.

that the gritty particles instead

the meal was probably ground
from corn husked by a shredding
machine. The sand in fact prob
ably represents the war profits
