Writes Letter
 From France


 Captain V. c. Mellgren. of Tomb stone, who is now in France, in letter received by Q friend of his in Tomb stone today, states that he was right behind the Tuscania when it went down but did not see the catastrophe at the time it happened. He says that everybody is busy in France and that there is work beyond measure to do. He also says that he never saw so much mud in aC his life and that where he is located it is very cold and as he wrote it was showing. He speaks of riding through France on a train. the cars of which were without heat and had no seats. Walter" ss he is known here, tells a good story which runs like this:
 They call the work at the front where the entire American force is en- gagged, the big show," and when small parties of Yankee boys go out scouting in night raids in No Mans Land they call it the little show"
 Some of our men were pulling off little show one night when they cap tured a wounded German officer who could talk English The Yankee boys put him on their shoulders and were carrying him back to their trencn nos uital and on the way he kept repeating over and over, You think you are go- ing to win this war. but you are not. and time after time he said it untI it got on the Yankee lads nerves, SO just as they came to deep shell crate filled with water, one of the Yankees said, You think you are going to the hospital. but you are not That ended the German officer. The little band of Tanks returned to their trench empty handed. It was but another case of man talking himself off the map"
 In closing he said: We need all the help from back home we can get because this is a big job we have tackled"
 Captain Mellgren adds that there is much he would like to tell his friends in Tombstone about the war, but he will do that when he returns.

PROSECUTE ALIEN ENEMIES.

The consciousness of alien enemies in Arizona comes to the attention of the pub lie every day. The spy. the propagandist, the pro-Cerman, Is active in his program throughout the state Federal authorities are doing their utmost to combat the evils of this Hun system. But the federal au- thorities are handicapped.
 Why not let the state assist the govern ment in this prosecution9 The governor has announced that he shall call special session of the Arizona legislature this sum- mer. Among the issues which he will bring to the attention of the law makers will be a bill enabling soldiers to vote, the woman S suffrage and prohibition measures. The legislature is prohibited by law from taking up other measures than specified by the governor in his call.
 The United States secret service and mill tary is handicapped in the prosecution of pro-Germans in several directions. Per haps the greatest of these difficulties is that women who are especially pernicious but who cannot be convicted of actual espion- age cannot be interned Men of pro-Ger- man sympathy, on the other hand, can be placed in detention camps. Among other difficulties is the wide expanse of this coun- try, the intricate methods built up by the pro-German for the spreading of his evil influence, and the great number of chan nels through which federal cases must pass. In addition, the government must contend with a discontented element of pacifists, l. W. w. and disgruntled agitators who are constantly sowing seed of discomfort.
 Through the enactment by the legislature of law permitting the state to prosecute alien enemies, Arizona could be of inesti- mable assistance to the United States Such a law could provide for the internment of women who perniciously spread pro-GGer- man propaganda It could be made flexi- ble and wide enough of scope to include the l. W. w. and the pacifist. And it could provide the state with an arm for the pro- lection of its industries from the enemies of the nation who are seeking, in every di- rection, to throttle production and cripple the country.
 Arizona has already demonstrated its hostility to the pro-German. The right thinking people of the state will not toler- ate the activities of the propagandist, when these activities threaten the safety of the state and nation. The governor realizes this, and the inclusion in his call of meas ure for the prosecution of alien enemies would meet with the hearty approval of ev- cry constructive, patriotic, high-minded, law-abiding citizen.

Bisbee moved her watch up an hour Sat urday night before she went to bed and then she got up an hour earlier Sunday but wait! Not Sunday Morning! She got up an hour earlier Monday morning and then went serenely to bed Monday night an hour earlier, which is to say, by the new time. Far be it from this column to criticise national custom, endorsed by the highest authorities and backed by the powers that be. It's alright, if they insist upon 1t. The old time, as set and circumscribed by the sun, was good enough for father and good for son, but maybe the new time is better. Most people go to bed too late and get up too late The new idea IS to utilize all of the light of the sun. Well, so be it. Man adapts himself easily and quickly to strik- ing changes, and so why not this little change of an hour? Every time we go to the western coast we move our watches forward an hour and promptly proceed to forget all about it; and when we go to Chi cago we move our watches back an hour and forget the change in time until the Pull man porter reminds us of it on the morning we cross the line from central to mountain time. If the government wants to utilize precious daylight and save electricity and coal oil and gas, why, Bisbee wants to dc her part to help, so the new time gees.

SHIP PRODUCTION
SETS NEW RECORD

American ship production again has
broken all records. The output OF
American shipyards for the twelve
months ended October l was 20 per
cent of the entire worlds greatest an
nual pre-war output, according to
figures made available today.
Compared with this. it has been re
vealed that Germany and Austria lost
go per cent their tonnage since Amer
lea became a belligerent. Through
seizure, the Teutonic alliance lost
3,795,000 lightweight tons.
The greatest annual pre-war out
put of the world was in 1918. when,
approximately, 4,75O,OO0 lightweight
tons of shipping were built. Amer
ica's output in the last twelve months
aggregated close to 100000 dead
weight tons
Although Germany has surrounded
her merchant feet with the utmost
secrecy, compilations of available
facts disclose the German and Aus
trian combined merchant tonnage to
be. approximately. 100000. The net
loss through seizure, therefore. is
much more severe than the figures in
dictate.

ASKS FURLOUGH TO
SEE GIRL IN KOREA

CAMP HUMPHREYS, Va, Oct. T.
There are two soldiers at Humphreys
whose requests for furloughs demon
strate that a brief stay in the army
has not entirely killed their sense of
humor.
Private william CHAIR. according
to reports from the Belvoir section of
the camp. has put in a request to his
captain for a seven weeks pass in
order to go home to see his sweet
heart in Korea and spend two days
with her. Some pass!
But it has remained for a veteran
of the Second Training Regiment
whose request is drawn up in regu-
lation military style, to draw the mil
lion-dollar prize for sheer nerve. The
letter, with the soldiers identity
slightly camoufiaged, reads as fol-
lows:

From: Private John Doe.
Subject: Request for furlough.

Reasons:
81. In three or four weeks 1 hope
to be on the oversee list and can't go
out of camp any more.
2. Sins l enlisted the 18th of May

sure to be back on time.
80. To go to Baltimore, to some of
the bathing resorts to go fishing,
syiming, etc, just loaf around to
sleep as long as l feel like without
hearing that awful whistle. / would
appreciate it If the supply sergeant
would furnish me with a pair of

right. To go with them .hob-nail gun

Two South Dakota cases involving
questions on constitutionality of the
espionage act of June, 1917. and con-
stitutionality of the provision of the
selective draft act which prescribes
duties of governors in apportioning
draft quotas among the counties of
their State are among the first sched-

The anthracite coal cases brought
by the Government against the Read

also up for reargUment-

SPEED MUNTTION WORK

Every munition plant in the country
has been ordered to speed up to meet
the munition shortage caused by the
destruction of the T. A. Gillespie plant
at Morgan, n. J. These plants will
be operated at capacity and the De-
partment of Labor already has started
the machinery to get additional help
for them.
The various State councils of de-
Tense have been wired TO get all avail

Editorial

The hardest time of this war
lies just ahead. The time
when the enemy will ASK
for peace. The time when
our armies are victorious and
have ALL but crushed their
opponents.
1t is then that hundreds will
say, why not sign a peace
treaty-why not stop this
awful war, with its bloodshed
and sacrifce?"
But the time will not be right.
1t would only mean a short
breathing spell until our chill
dren or children's children,
at most must go through an
even more bloody conflict.
There can be no peace until the
enemy BEGS on his knees for
mercy; until he is willing to
abide by ANY terms that
may be imposed upon him;
until he is willing to vacate
and restore.
The surest way to insure such
a peace is to BUY LIBERTY
BONDS. Buy them until the
job is finished-RIGHT.
