HOW DOG LOVERS CAN AID.

] The dog rightfully holds a
/ strong place In the minds and
3 affections of men.
/ The owner of good dog finds
} in him most faithful friend.
Z But it sometimes happens that
! the dog most highly esteemed Is
also one that kills and worries
D the most sheep and is the most
cunning In obscuring the evil
dences of his guilt.
A well-bred dogs habit of ~
Z ing innocently asleep In the
front yard during daytime is no
I proof that the same dog does
]. not kill sheep at night.
2 Because of the economic loss
! occasioned by sheep-killing dogs,
! and because such dogs bring
the whole of their kind into bad
I repute. the true admirers and
\ friends of this animal should
help to further any steps likely
! to result in the limitation of the
I activity of these discrediting
members of a noble race.
One of the most practicable
! methods of accomplishing this
! result seems to be to place upon
dogs such a tax as will reduce
/ the number of superfluous ones
! and result in fewer being kept
by persons who cannot or will
. not give them the attention nee
essary to prevent the formation
! of habits and associations that
lead to sheep killing.

most efforts were made to prevent the induction of young Steinfeld into the army, and that, after the district board had overruled his exemption plea, a special agent of the war de partment was sent to Tucson from Washington to investigate the case. Denied the exemption so ardently sought, he succeeded in delaying his response to the draft for several months, and also exerted enough in- fuence to have himself sent to an eastern army training camp instead of Camp Funston, where up to the time of his induction, the selects of Arizona had been sent.
 'It seems now that Steinfeld has been able to avoid the military duty altogether by obtaining a transfer to the laboratory of war material fac tory.''

POLITICAL ASSISTANTS
 NOW NUMBER OVER 1500

That Greenlee registrants will be considerably short of those enroll ing at the last election, is admitted by all, but at present the registration list shows considerable interest by the voters of the county. The three small precincts are very slow how ever. Some have not changed places since the last publication. Guthrie is still doing'a three torned 5O-5O stunt, with York, Metcalf and Sheldon in the same column of last week. Others show slight increase.

 ACTUAL ARMY DUTY
RICH YOUNG STACKER FINDS A SOFT BIRTH AT WASHINGTON TO SAVE HIM FROM STOPPING A BULLET.

The Arizona public is familiar with the more or less sensational proceed ings of young Harold Steinfeld to evade the draft. His exemptions were turned down, and the decree came that he would have to take his medicine, and most of the people were of the opinion that he was in some training camp, carrying rifle and en- during the hardships incident to camp life, the same as other Ameri- can boys. It was pointed at as an evidence that mans money profit ed him little in evading the selective draft in the war for democracy. But these who were so credulous, it seems had another guess coming. Steinfelds money really wins, if the following story from the Tombstone Prospec. tor is correct.
 It is true that young Steinfeld may have accomplishments that will make him more serviceable in special ser vice than in the training camps, and had he come forward like a true pa triot and taken his place with others better than he, no one would have criticised his placement in the special service. But instead of responding when he was called he put up dog ged and determined fight to evade the draft, and had his proper punish ment been meeted out to him term at Leavenworth would have been his sentence.
 The Prospector has the following tc say concerning this case:
 Word was brought here yesterday that Harold Steinfeld, son of Albert Steinfeld, we'll known Tucson mer chant, had been transferred to Wash ington, D. C., where he has been as signed to work in a factory where war materials are manufactured. Ht previously had been sent from Caml Meade to Long Island to work in ; laboratory.

BRILLIANT SOCIAL FUNCTION
 IGNORING A METEcALF LADY

The following mention of brilliant social function, in which Mrs. Manhei- mer of Metcalf, was the honoree, is sent to the Copper Era from Venice. Calif., where the Manheimers and others from this district are spending the heated term:
 The Royal Cafe, of Venice, Calf, was the scene of a very enjoyable surprise party on Tuesday evening. June 25th, rendered to Mrs. Maurice Manheimer, of MetcaIf, by MT. Man heimer on the occasion of the fifth anniversary of their marriage. The following guests were invited and, en- joyed the eight course dinner: Dr. and Mrs. Tibbets of Los Angeles, for merly residents of the Clifton dis trict; Miss Teddy Tibbetts of Los An geles; MT. and Mrs. c. M. Biddick, of Metcalf; and Mrs. Remes, of Los An geles.
 The tables were beautifully decor ated with flowers, ferns, etc.
 Mrs. Manheimer was the recipient of several valuable and useful pres ents and also the best wishes of the guests on this her fifth anniversary in the realms of marriage bliss. Mrs. Remes entertained the party. throughout with her beautiful singx ing, which was we'll rendered and fully enjoyed by everyone present.
 Last, but not by any means, least, was the plentiful supply of Californis. wines, both dry and sweet, which the host had selected with especial i care, knowing the appetite of his Arizona patrons.
 l The tables were decorated by Mir. : P. Murich, the manager and he also personally directed the up-to-date ser vice for which the Regal Cafe is not ed, being one of the most popular cafes on the coast.

Review OF Tragedy.
Mrs. Roberts was shot and killed by
Miss Lusk in the latter's home the
afternoon of June 81, 1917. The trag-
edy followed a friendship extending
back to the summer of 1914 between
Dr. David Roberts, a former state vet
erinarian, nationally known as a man
ufacturer of proprietary medicines for
cattle, and Miss Lusk, who won dis
tinction as an educator after having
taken a degree at the University of
Wisconsin. At the time she met Doc
tor Roberts she was teacher in the
Waukesha Normal school

Lusk tried to kill herself with the
same revolver. For the past ten
months she has been held in Jail. Her
trial on charge of murder began

BY JACK vEIOCK.


New York, May 30.-Varsity foot
ball games between, the members of
the Big Three-Yale, Harvard and
Princeton-may be resumed this fall.
Sentiment at all three schools
among the students, and most impor-
tant of all the Influential members
of the faculty, leans toward the re-
sumption of the old-time schedules
which were abandoned on account of
the war.
Alumni of the Big Three who are in
position to get inside information
say that a concerted effort will be
made to restore the greatest college
game in all its glory, and tho the
quality of football may be somewhat
slower than that displayed by the
highly polished elevens of other years.
the spirit and the ancient rivalry will
be there.
Much depends on the size of the
enrolment this fall. Dean Briggs, of
Harvard, is said to favor the resump-
ton of general sports. and at a recent
meeting in Cambridge he expressed
himself favorably in this direction.
Princeton's athletic council has al
ready gone on record that the Tiger
school will carry on athletics and
college sports of all kinds to the limit
of it's ability, and Yale's sport men
tors have changed the views which
prompted them to conduct sport along
'infOrmaP' lines.

IN FRANCE NEWLY
MADE GRAVES ARE
DECORATED TO-DAY

With the American Armies In
France, May 30-There are new
American graves being decorated TO-
day.
Thev are on grassy hillsides, in
shaded ravines, beneath CROPPING trees
and beside stone walls. centuries old.
Mothers, sisters, sweethearts. can
not visit these graves. The tender
touch of mother placing mower
upon the grave of her boy is denied
Americas latest dead But those who
loved the fighting men who have fall
en- in France may rest assured they
are not forgotten.
: The parades, the speeches, are miss
ing But a deeper, even more solemn
note, is struck in France, as the graves
of Americas dc ad are honored.
Most of these graves in France are
fresh. The cold brown earth has not
yet been covered by it's soft quilt of
grass. A little wooden cross, with the
fallen ones name inscribed upon it,
and small American flag that droops
and caresses the grave, marks the rest
ing place of the dead hero.
In one little group of graves along a
roadside in Lorraine lie twelve Amer
lean boys. In another cemetery back
of certain hospital are twice as many
more. And far up under the guns
there Is a little graveyard guarded by
an old stone wall in which rest more
of Americas dead. So it is turnout
the area IN WHICH AiHeTlcdIlS nave
fought.
There is no one special spot an
American could have visited today
and honored the dead.
The men and boys who came to
France dedicated their lives to world
principles They have died as SOL
| diers of the democracies of the world.
Their bodies may be found thruout
the northern section of France-the
worlds battlefield. But their spirit.
/ the things for which they died, live
| today. stronger than ever.
And the men still to carry on the
fight are fighting with new determi-
nation; new realization of what this
war means and firm resolve for vic
| tory that war may never again be
thrust on the world.
/ Not only in Lorraine. on the Amer
| lean front, but near the heart of the
| worlds greatest battle line, American
| graves were honored today. The
troops which marched into the line
where the Germans were making their
great thrust in April paid dearly in
| blood to bar the way. They fought
and died beside the French, only as
Americans can fight and die.
In Lorraine many a little French
child toddled out along a village
street to place a flower on the grave
| of an American. The children OF
France are the best loved friends OF
the soldiers. The children are the
first to greet the Americans as they
arrive in a village. They are the last
! to wave goodby as the boys from
/ home march away
! American mothers, fathers and
sweethearts may rely on the children
! of France today.

MORE SILOS NEEDED.
They Save Labor on Farms and Also
Save Food for Stock.

Manhattan, Kan, May 30.-"There
should be more silos in Kansas" says
Edward c. johnson, dean of the divi-
sion of extension of the Kansas State
Agricultural college. The silo is one
of the most important factors in the
economical production of meat and
dairy products which are needed to
help win the war.
THE silo reduces the labor neces-
sary to feed cattle More silos will
greatly increase the food output for
our soldiers and our allies. Kansas
silage is ammunition for the fight just
as surely are the shells that feed
heavy artillery at the front.
"a good silo is always a good in
vestment for the farmer who has live
stock to feed Plans for the building
of silos this year should be made
early so that the silos will be ready
for the silage crops when they have
reached the stage of highest feeding

ISBELL HAS A PLAN
Suspend w. L. and Send Players to
Harvest Field, He Says.

Wichita, Kan, May 30.-President
Frank 'Isbel1 of the Wichita Western
league club has advanced novel
proposition that he thinks will prove
that baseball wants to do its part in
war work. 1t is that the Western
league temporarily suspend its season
during harvest time, now approaching,
and that the teams intact be trans
ferred to the wheat fields, where they
will aid in getting in the crop.
When this work is done, under Is
bells plan, the playing of baseball
games would be resumed and the
schedule finished as originally in
tended.
Isbell says that no organization has
done more to show its patriotism than
baseball and that it will not be out
done. However, he thinks it's service
deserves recognition and believes the
public will demand a continuation of
the game.
