That jury verdict in Chicago against the l. ". w. marks something more significant than merely just decree against an outlaw organization, it marks the firmness, the good sense and the soGdity of the entire fabric of American national life. In Rus sia the wild-eyed radicals and bolsheviks may be able to plunge a nation into an archy dislnay and ruin, but not over here. Brought face to face with the law and senti- ment of the land, the l. w. W. is shorn at a stroke of any national prominence or in- fluence CT importance. It IS merely ar rested by the policeman as a common bum, thrown in jail and given thirty days by the judge next morning. And nothing could be more typical of the l. w. w. than to be disposed of in just such a simple and pro- saic fashion by the United States govern ment for 1t lacked all the things that could make 1t dangerous and none of the things that made it a pest and sore and nuis- ance. And 1t is also sad but true that to many people In Arizona the verdict of that Chicago jury will come as a blow.

CHINESE SEND TROOPS

WASHINGTON, Aug 19.-The Chin csc government has sent a large force of troops to the Siberian border to prevent a threatened invasion of Chin csc territory by German and Hungar- ian prisoners of war who joined with the Red Guard and other elements of the bolshevik against the CzechO-SlO- walks in the trans -Baikal region.
 The sending of the Chinese force was taken to mean that every means of bringing relief to- the Czecho-Slo- walks was being taken by the allied powers. That the army of prisoners set free by the bolshevih and armed to fight the Czecho-Slovaks was men, acing the Chinese border has been known here. China has declared she will not permit them to cross her bor- der and if Chinese territory is violated a battle is promised
 It was said today at the state depart ment that the allied troops in Vladi- vostok are not under orders to remain there as was indicated in an appeal for assistance recently made by Gen eral Diedrichs, the CzechO-SlOvak leader, but may go anywhere they can assist. Japanese troops probably will be the first to render aid Co Gen eral Diedrichs.

and proved to bring verdict and a stern sentence against the leaders caught in the federal net
 l O all industrial communities of Arizona and the mining and farming and forest states of the west the verdict of Chicago ccmes as a relief rom pest, nuisance and q constant evil. Many disciples of this miserable creed remain in this state and in this community, and, many of their friends sympathizers and well wishers remain also. But they can no longer preach their doctrine in public places and Haunt their red cards and practice of intimidation with impunity. They have gone beyond the pale And Bs- bee, interest Is not lessened when 1t Is considered that Big Bill Haywood's wild and insane threats against the government following the Bisbee deporation were al- most immediately followed by the long ex pected and long deferred governmental action against him and his wobbly band. Bisbee has suffered as much annoyance and trouble and expense and actual peril at the hands of the l. ". w. as probably any other community in the nation. Many of her leading citizens even now face trial in the courts for having taken action against the Haywood crew ahead of the govern ment's move. But some one has to move first. The Bisbee deportation was the for lorn hope led against the wobbly in the west, and the Chicago verdict was the final victory in the long struggle to place him in the ranks of criminals and traitors and outlaws, where he belongs. To the nation at large 1t is not so very important, but in the mining camps and wheat fields and can neries and lumber mills of the great west, 1t will result in incalculable good and be far reaching in its effects For the l. W. w., be it known, was not only an active menace against industry but, through friends and sympathizers and office seekers, it had gained an influence in the new and thinly settled states that will quickly disappear, now that the governments brand of out lawry has been firmly fixed upon the organ ization and all who cling to its customs and aid its propaganda and embrace its faith.

the reported bill, representative Kahn of California, ranking republican mem Der, plans a minority report in favor of the administration plan.
 General Crowder told the commit tee that men now in class 1 would be exhausted after the September call and urged speedy action on the bill to provide sufficient men for future calls, although General March said he thought there would be men enough to last until November without the new legislation By January 1. Gen. Cral Crowder said he hoped to com plete classifying the nation"
 In answer to a letter from Chair man Chamberlain, of the senate mili- tary committee, asking whether it was true that the war department proposed 10 exempt married men as a class un- der the new man power bill, Secretary Baker today informed the senator that the existing regulations as to married men would continue in force. Senator Chamberlain lad written to the Sec retary saying if it was true that de- ferred classification for married men generally was contemplated many sen ators would oppose lowering the pres ent draft age to IS years.
 'The present situation" MT. Baker replied with regard to married men in class 1 is that four classes of mar ried men are included within the linn its of that class: First, married men who do not support their wives or ram lilies; second. married men whose wives support them; third. married men whose wives have adequate inde- pendent means; fourth, married msn engaged in useless occupations and wso are not the main or principle sup port of their families.
 There is no intention to change this situation.
 Tn considering the regulations with resard to dependency of wives and children financial dependency has been looked upon as the reason for deferred classification. This will con- tinue tO be the case.
 q am told that in some parts of the country there is an abnormal iu- crease in the rate of marriages which suggests the possibility of a desire to use marriage as a basis for a claim of exemption. The status of Tegistrants married at a time and under conditions suggesting any such purpose will be that of unmarried persons so far sa their classification is concerned"

Nothing could mark with stronger sig nificance the change in events on the west ern front than the recent appeal of Ger many to Austria for twenty divisions for that front. Four months ago the German armies were rushing on to what they had been told was victorious peace drive. Today they are barely holding their lines in two places after giving up two great salients that had cost them a quarter of million apiece in German cannon fodder. And they are calling on poor old despised and beaten and demoralized and starving and duped Austria for men. It IS Austria or nothing. There are no more German soldiers upon which to call. As for the Austrians, they have been proved ten times over in this war as being the poorest sol diers engaged on any front.

No more striking summary of the third battle of the Somme and the full extent of the British victory there can be found than in the facts presented by military critic who declares that more ground was gained and more prisoners taken by the allies from daylight to noon on August 8 last than were gained and taken by the British in the first battle of the Somme from July to No vember of l916 And it cost the British just ten thousand men on August 8, while it cost them nearly half million in 1916. Thus is shown, either the wonderful in- crease in the efficiency and power of the British armies in France or the correspond ing decrease in that of the Germans.
