Don't let anybody tell you that you
are spending. You are simply lending. You
turn your SlOO over to Uncle Sam. He gives
you Liberty Bond. That Bond pays you
4 Ia per cent. interest or S4.25 per year.
In 20 years time you get SIS and your

Back of that Bond stands the United

While Heads Are Barred.

Lieutenant Ely, it is ours reverently to acknowledge the service you haverendered To your country and ours, you gave all you had to give, life, young and buoyant offered when you had but just arrived at lifes fullest understanding and more than this no man can give.
 But in the giving, sir, you gave as well the outpour of your stout young heart-that all of us to whom you pass along the touch might offer prayer, and carry on in better understanding of that ennobled cause for which no sacrifice shall be in vain. Some of Us arefar behind the fighting lines of France today. For circumstance has made two battle lines, and there must be there fore those gone to fight, and others kept behind to carry on at home.
 But as you say, both lines bring chance for deeds we'll done, and great invest ments too.
 Little did you know, Lieutenant Ely, when
The Sentinel=record., 1918-09-27

you went to the post that day, that your last letter to those proud parents you left back home contained a message not alone for them, but, simple and sincere for all your COuntryrnen as we'll.
 It did, indeed for you uncovered the heart of all America when you wrote, "I 1Dant to soy in closing, # anythmg Happens to me lets haUe TO mourning in spirit or dress, for like q Liberty Bond, t IS on mOesfn1ent not q Ioss when man dies for his country" The Fourth Liberty Loan is now an- nOunced.
 Do you think Lieutenant Ely, that we shall soon forget your admonition-or that we shall not proudly subscribe for all we possibly can of your country's Liberty Bonds, which you so nobly glorifed? Indeed, we can do no less, for it seems to us that each subscription blank must bear your parting salutation- for like Liberty Bond, it is an investment, not loss, when a man dies for his country

 You don't have to pay all cash for your bonds You can make your first payment from cash in the bank, and take care of the balance out of your daily weekly or monthly savings.
 The forced saving you do will mean a nice nest egg later for the bonds you buy and pay for you go along will prove splendid investment that will pay you good interest every six months After the war the bonds will be worth more than you paid for them Don't hesitate to do your duty and do it quickly
 Don't let the SON go down"

 Received your long newsy letter couple of Ndays ago. Had already seen in the Ezra that Jack was in the race this fall. Had hopes of receiving some ballots so that I could help out over here-maybe they will show up yet. And little John Dickey -I wish I could see him. Must have kodak picture of him for my collec- tion. Was awfully glad to hear about little Miss Ferguson; to know that Margaret and Fergy are happy. Helen, you have no idea how much you are doing to help win this war in your struggle for the Red Cross. They are everything. In addition to all their hospital work they have little out posts in all the towns in the war one and serve hot coffee or chocolate and cookies to the boys as they come in from relief. There is a station a few doors from me and I chase up there a couple of times a day for a little handout. Don't believe it will be long before I'll be back in dear old Ari- zona. Fritz is on his last pegs and it must hurt awfully bad to see his own country mussed up.
 Lots of love to everybody,

LET YOUR SUPPORT BE sTEADFAsT

When a citizen of the United States buys war saving stamp at the post office or from the committees soliciting purchases for these securities he is giving his support to the gov ernment and aiding to meet the expense of the great war which is now, happily coming to an end. When that citizen takes his war saw ings stamps to the postoffice and demands that they be redeemed then he is withdrawing his support from the government and taking money which is needed just as much now as it was when the stamps were purchased. Cash ing savings stamps at the postoffice is thing that should not be thought of except under circumstances of great necessity.
 ''Every effort should be made to discourage the conversion of War Savings stamps into cash, unless an emergency arises" says an exchange.
 s'While it is true go to our post master and redeem all the stamps have purchased, receiving the full amout paid for them in addition to reasonable interest, we of Uncle Sam's pocket.
 "Our government needs every dollar that we have subscribed and will continue to re- quire our financial assistance through the sale of War Savings stamps.
 "1n the open this individual heralds his patriotism by buying War Savings stamps. When the first opportunity presents itself, he stabs Uncle Sam in the back by demanding the money he loaned the government.
 ''The man who converts his War Savings stamps into cash when he can afford to carry them the five year period is not a patriot. In reality who has purchased War Savings stamps with the idea of cashing them in i'm mediately is worse than the individual who absolutely declines to buy them. r Statistics at postoffice show it is not the widow who has her boy over there, or the father who tolls six days week for a bare living who redeeming their Thrift stamps It is the man who has made no sacrifice but has merely purchased War Savings stamps to gain some patriotic publicity who goes to the postoffice and demands the redemption of his stamps.

WAR SAVINGS STAMP REPORT

Yavapai county is the only county in the state which has reached quota for War Saw ings stamps For the whole 12 months the amount per capita which should be raised IS $20, so for the first II months the amount per person in each county which should have ln- vested in Thrift Stamps is $1S.18, and ty but Yavapai has been able to report such progress. Yavapai has done better than keep pace with its monthly quota for in that banner county the entire $20 per capita is al- ready invested in War Savings stamps with balance of S4 cents to the good.
 Coconno is the second best county in the state with respect to the purchase of Thrift stamps. Coconino has averaged $15.15 per person and so is about $3 per head behind the county quota Greenlee is the third county in standing in the state and Maricopa is the fourth Then follows Gila, which is almost tied with Maricopa, Pinal, Cochise, Mohave, Yuma, Pima, Santa Cruz, Graham, Navajo and Apache.
 The whole state has about two millions and quarter still to invest in War Savings in order to meet the expectations of govern ment officials The fact that some of the most largely populated counties in the state have maintained a higher average than some of the more sparsely settled ones has made pos sible as good showing is made. All these figures are up to November |.
 If Arizona fails to make quota for the Thrift stamps it will be the first patriotic movement in which it has not yet met re- quirements and all sections are getting busy, according to reports at state headquarters, to avert this catastrophe. Cochise, in particular, is making great rally to meet its quota with special drives participated in by the leading citizens of Douglas.

RED FLAGS ARE BARRED
 NEW YORK UNDER PENALTY
 OF HUNDRED DOLLAR FINE

New York, Nov. 26.@The board of aldermen today adopted an ordinance prohibiting the display of red flags at parades or public meetings here. The measure becomes effective when May or Hylan, who favors the ordinance, adds his signature. A maximum penalty of $1OO fine and ten days inn prisonment is provided for violation.
 To prevent recurrence of the clash between socialists and soldiers and sailors, which followed the meeting in Madion Square Garden last night, po- lice reserves were hurried tonight to a hall in East Fifty-eighth street in which internationalists had gathered to denounce capitalism.
 Several hundred men in uniform gathered outside the hall. They rough ly handled one young woman wearing a miniature red flag in her hair while taking it from her.
 After the meeting started the sol diers and sailors demanded entrance, but were held back by the police, Rep resentatives who entered the hall singly came back and assured the men outside that the red flag was not being displayed and that no disloyal utterances had been made
 There was but one disturbance in the hall during the meeting. This was when a soldier and several civilians removed red necktie from a man standing in the rear.
 The police lined the streets for a block in both directions to protect the inetrnationalists when the meeting ended. Women with red flowers and red ribbons on their hats were ad- dressed roughly by uniformed men, who demanded the offending color be removed. No attacks were made up- on women, but several men were chased by sailors and few were beat en.

GOLFER DOES THE MANLY THING

In announcing recently that he would make no contest in the courts over the govern orship, Senator Fred T. Golfer took manly position-one that his real friends felt certain would be his, even when others endeavor- ing to persuade him away from this course. He followed this statement by addressing a letter to Governor Elect Thomas B. Campbell, which showed graciousness of character that was well known to his friends
 These two acts on the part of Senator Colter show him to be a man big enough to accept defeat, and it requires greater strength to meet the test of hopes dashed down and ambitions wrecked than it does to accept the palm of victory. His letter to Governor Elect Campbell is the expression of man who loves his state and his country and seeks their best interests in preference to all else. This is patriotism of high order and will be appre- ciated by the people of Arizona.
 Senator Golfers fine example is certain to have its influence upon others, who have less cause for dissatisfaction yet who pro- claim the loudest. His statement and letter will rebound to the benefit of the democratic party and go far to wipe out the feeling that existed in the late campaign. We may look to united party in the future to resume the place and prestige that its by right in Arizona. Senator Golfer has contributed his part to the healing of the wounds.
The copper era and Morenci leader., 1918-11-29

The official majority of Senator Fred Co., ter of Cochise county has been fixed at 7SS by the count made by the board of supervis- ors of Tombstone. Carl Hayden, the demo- cratic candidate fo crongress had majority of 1900 and Judge Baker, democratic candi- date for supreme judge was about the same. These results show that Senator Golfer suffer- ed in this county because of the unpopularity of Huntism, as in the other counties of the state Senator Golfer is fine fellow and a man that has done much to uphold the demo- cratic party of the state and could he have
