Getting Warm for Them.

The citizens Of Holly, who have been
annoyed by pro-German talk and work
of certain organizers of the non-part-
isan league, ceased to bear patiently
with the nuisance last week, and after
one citizen had become SO incensed at
language used by the organizer in
dsnouncing President Wilson that he
beat up the organizer, they gathered
a body of citizens and called on the
organizer. After a hearing he was
invited to make Holly better by his
absence, and the matter was pressed
so emphatically that he gladly accept
ed the proposition. However, he con-
tinucd work in the eastern part of the
county until citizens finally complain
ed and he was arrested. He is now
resting in the county Jail while the
government officials investigate his
case.

Goes to France

Attorney Herschel Horn received
word this week from the Y. NJ. C. A.
general Offices at Chicago, of his ap-
pointement to the overseas service of
the association, and to hold himself
in readiness for call. Mr.. Horn is
prominent in both business and pro-
fessional circles of Lamar, and is an
earnest and energetic worker in what
ever he undertakes. He tried hard to
enlist in the army but when they
would not accept him there was de-
termined to get to the front any
way and he applied for overseas work
from the Y. NJ. C. A. His appointment
is the result of his determined effort
to go to the front to do his share in
the heavy work in France. He will
be greatly missed in Lamar and will
carry with him the best wishes of a
host of warm personal friends. His
carnestness and enthusiasm will be
great help to many in the great con-
flict in France.

Trial of an Opium Smuggler.

| Yesterday afternoon Customs
inspectors Harry A. Smith, Geo.
N. Sayre and Harry j. Smart
went to Tucson to attend as wit
nesses the trial in the United
States court today of a man
named Cesario Fernandez, un-
der indictment for smuggling
opium.
The capture of the accused
with a largequantity Of opium
prepared for smoking, was made
by the three inspectors named
a couple of weeks ago. In a
house on a hill above the build
ing that was occupied by the ci-
gar factory when it was in op-
Grafton, the officers loct:tcd a
trunk containing 76 tins OF the
drug. They kept the place un-
der surveillance for week. Then
the accused sent Tor the trunk
to be delivered to him at the
Santa Cruz House. The officers
followed it up and when the
man received his property they
swooped down upon him, taking
both Fernandez and the trunk.
The property was in evidence at
the preliminary examination be-
fore u. S. Commissioner w. A.
O'Connor, who held the accused
to appear before the U. S. grand
Jury at Tucson, and will be pre-
sented to the trial jury.
The value of the prepared
opium is about $40 gold per tin
in Nogales, Sonora, and if it can
reach market this side of the
; line it is worth double that sum.
So it is evident that the man
had at stake quite fortune,
with a prospect for large profits
Formerly such seizures were
destroyed by the court officers,
but now they are turned over to
: the medical authorities of the q
S.. Army. By treatment the
opium prepared for smoking
may be converted to medicinoi
preparations of the drug useful
il. the hospitals.

Pig skins, Now Wasted, Good
For Shoes, Finest Saddlery,
And Fancy Leather Articles

There has been an enormous de-
crease in cattle and hogs in the United
States and elsewhere. There are A.
100000 fewer hogs in this country than
there were a year ago. Hogs play a
most important part in the present
crisis. The losses from cholera have
been enormous, and the government is
sending hog cholera experts into the
states to help In the work Of cholera
control.
There is one source of loss that
should be considered, and 1t does not
pertain to disease, writes George ii.
Glover Of the Colorado Agricultural
college. Leather is scarce, and In the
countries that have been the longest in
war, the scarcity of leather is possibly
causing the most concern. Pig skins
are wasted and they make the finest
of leather. 1t has been tested, and
found to be highly satisfactory for
shoes and 1t makes the finest saddle
and fancy leather goods.
The rind on pork chops is not nee
essary, in the modern methods Of cur
ing meats. 1t is paid for by the con-
sumner, is a total loss, and Is Ii con-
slant menace because of the fact that
uncooked pork rinds in garbage spread
hog cholera.
OF all the domesticated animals
the hog is the most prolific, makes the
greatest gains, provides the greatest
variety of food products, thrives on
the greatest variety of foods and or
dinarily gives the quickest returns on
the investment. At the present time
nothing should be wasted. Why not
save the pig skin?

WHEN RUSSIA FAILS
By George E. Bowen OF the Vigilantes

No use to cry over Russia's spilled
milk.
But very important" to prevent a sim
liar catastrophe in our own lives.
Russia's deficit changes the world
balance.
What is our shortage?
Russia's wasn't 100 per cent.
She's trying mighty hard to get out
Of the $3.50 class.
Realizing the ruinous futllity Of
serving a dozen masters, Russia is try
Ing to become master of herself.
Can we say as m~uch?-You and II
What is our little pet personal des-
potism7
Have we cast 1t out, in the name Of
efficiency and perfect fitness for the
world service calling US?
Russia Is the sore toe Of the allied
cause.
Makes the whole movement Of hui
mainly stumble.
Has our personal patriotism a sore
toe-or a broken arm, or a lost voicei
Is u sympathy bandaged over one
eye?
Is u loyalty punctured?
Is our first duty to humanity a vic
tim of prejudice, procrastination or
perversIty?
Russia is an awful warningI
The greatest thing in the world to-
day is to be right and ready
That's the least we W to the Big
gest Cause.
Be fit to go forward with the true
faith.
Every man must see his own heart.
Every man must put his mind in or
der to square with the great fact: a
kaiserless world.
Russia has shown us the way, by
falling down in it.
Today Is the day our own soul must
decide!
Not half way. Not roundabout. Not
by compromise or contradiction. Not
by secret treaties with our personal
despot. Not by any style Of self
camouflage.
Today-We must go the whole way
Give up all to win ALL
Call it the Day Of Conservation
and remember Russia
