Gen Pershing Wants
Nine Pairs of Shoes a Year
for Men Serving in France.

Gen. Pershing has requested ship
ment of 1880 pairs of shoes for each
$4,000 men monthly, which is approx
imately nine pairs of shoes per man
per year This quantity is an excess of
actual consumption and is being used
to build up reserve for all troops in
France. When such supply is ac-
cumulated, the quantities per man
will be reduced.
The Quartermaster Generals De-
partment now has on hand and due on
outstanding contracts, 100000 field
shoes and 7,s73,000 marching shoes.
1t will be necessary to secure more
than a million additional shoes during
the year.

YOU CAN'T BEAT THEM.

She went TO buy can of beans
Down at the grocer's shop,
Because she'd heard the price of beans
Had that day had drop.
The price the grocer asked was high;
The woman gave a frown;
"Look here!" she said al heard today
That beans had gone way down
Deans now are cheap" the man re-
piled,
"But this you'll think a sin:
Although the price of beans is down.
They've raised the price of tin"

Men at All Camps
Receive Instruction
in Gas Defense.

At each cantonment in the United
States a school has been established
where every officer and man receives
instruction in gas defense. The Amer
lean gas mask, similar to the English,
is as mechanically perfect as the
best experts have been able to pro-
duce. The face piece, with glass or
celluloid eyepieces, is connected by a
flexible tube with canister carried
in napsack. The incoming breath
comes through the canister, which is
yelled with several layers Of chemicals
which neutralize or render harmless
the gas-laden air OUTGOING breath
passes outside the face piece through
a small valve.
The student in gas defense soon
learns to get his mask on in hurry
six seconds being the standard time
when the knapsack containing the
mask is hanging at his chest in the
"alert" position. After intensive
training gas attack is arranged.
The class is put in trenches, and
without warning, clouds of smoke and
chlorine are liberated by the instruc-
tors; masks are hurriedly put on, al
arms sounded, and sleeping men in
dugouts aroused. When the attack
ceases the trenches are cleared of gas,
the air is tested, and permission is
given to remove masks.

DEFENSE COUNCIL
 TABooS XMAS ETxRAVAGANcE

Food Administrator Minson has re- received from the National Defense Council an explanation of tn Govern ment's attitude on Christmas buying. The attitude of the government is made clear, in which the former ex- travs gance of the people in buying Christmas presents is now taboo, by decree of the National Council of De- fense.
 But this is intended in no part to destroy or impair the Christmas spir- it, but sane presents is advocated. To relieve the demands made upon labor this policy is adopted, to the end that all labor may be diverted to more useful and essential occupa- tions.
 The National Council of Defense makes its position clear this early in order that manufacturers and dealers may be advised in time regarding buy ing Christmas wares.
 The matter is now being taken up largely through State Divisions of the Woman's Committee, for the reason

CORONADO MINE EXPLOSION
 CAUSES DEATH OF THREE

Deputy Mine Inspector John Harper of. Globe, spent several days in this district this week Investigating the tragedy at the Coronado mines, which occurred last Friday, resulting in three miners losing their lives.
 The Coronado was reported by the Copper Era to be on fire several weeks ago, and since that time hero ic efforts have been made to extin- guish the fire, and the burning was under control. Huge bulkheads had been put in to protect the workers who were trying to stop the fire, and to confine the blaze to that area in which it was raging. The gases form ed in the mine a few days ago blew ont the. bulkhead, and the men who lost their lives were at work replacing the damaged bulkhead.
 A cave-in caused second explos- ion, catching the men and causing their death. Those killed were H. Stephens, shift boss; Antonio Cor delli and Tomas Vanderval, miners.
 MT. Harper could not be seen after he had investigated the accident, but previous to going to the scene he stated the men were horribly burn. ed by the gas, though their hair and clothing was not even scorced.

POLITICAL TALENT
 ASSEMBLE HERE
Continued from Page D


 Senator Fred Sutter of Bisbee, whose candidacy for the office of Governor was precipitated when he addressed the senate in the special session in reply to Governor Hunts vitriolitic message, was one of the latter arrivals. Nor did he object to the salubrious climate of Greenlee where Democratic sovereigns have their habitat. He fingered several days in still hunt, forming the ac- quaintances of the voters. But all the while he was not idle. He adver- tised his speaking for Thursday night, and was the attraction at the tennis court. Quite a number greet ed him when he informally waived precedent by stating that a Democrat needed no formal introduction to a Democratic audience, and at once launched upon his address.
 As an oartor the Senator ranks high. and his remarks were frequently applauded by his straightforward manner in delivering his message to the voters. There was no hint of billingsgate, or depreciation of his opponents. On the contrary he spoke out Tn meeting without any equivoca- tion and told his hearers if they thought another better qualified to
The copper era and Morenci leader., 1918-08-02

administer the office of governor than he, it was their patriotic duty to vote for the other fellow.
 He said that he had heard it said that he was the candidate of the cor per companies, and was in the pay of the corporations. If so, another was getting his pay check. Had no objection to being in the pay of cop per companies, as he was an attorney and his services were at the disposal of those who wished to employ him in an honorable capacity. But, said he, "by reason of the fact that I am not in the employ of the copper com panies we both are losers-they are missing the services of mighty good lawyer, and am missing the fees they pay"
 If chosen as the chief executive of the state MT. Sutter promised a fair and economical administration of the state government. Pointed out that all taxes, had been largely increased those of the corporations, but the farmer and stockmen were also pay ing larger taxes. This was neces- sary by reason of the increased cost Of the state government. He stood for no special interests, but his ad- ministration would be conducted on 50-50 basis, justice to all. Believed in organized labor, but would give the labor interests fair and impartial deal, the same to the corporations. The speaker told of his coming to Arizona in the early days, when the state was wide open. Gambling was openly conducted and the white lights of dissipation lured the unwary
The copper era and Morenci leader., 1918-08-02

in many quarters. Beyond these white lights he saw still a brighter Eght-the light of ambition, towards winch he fixed as is goal. He secur- ed work as miner and from his earnings paid his expenses in liter ary and law schools, thus qualifying him to fill the position he now seeks.
 MT. Suffers remarks were well re- ceived, but he only spoke about an hour, when he introduced Judge A. c. Baker.
 For Judge of Supreme Court.
 Judge Baker, who is making the race for Judge of the Supreme Court, confined his address to patriotic sub- jects, and spoke for a few minutes on the war and the duties of loyal American citizens, in both of the armies of the nation. The first was at the battles front, fighting and dying in the greatest war the world ever knew; the second was compos- ed of those who must remain at home. One was just as essential as the other. The first to fight the battles against the heartless hun, and he second to produce the sinews of war to maintain these at the front.
 In opening his remarks Judge Baker paid very high compliment to his opponent, Judge Franklin, by saying he was one of Arizona's most honor abl citizens, and even if he was in- clined to make a political address, be- cause of the absence of his opponent he would not do SO.
 Judge Baker was the recipient of hearty applause, and his address was visibly appreciated.

YOUR PRECINCT OFFICERS
 PERHAPS MOST IMPORTANT

The problem that will soon conront the public of Clifton, and all of Precinct No. l, and which is a pro- position that deserves as much or more consideration than any other office in the county, is that of select ing one who is best fitted for the of flee of Justice of the Peace.
 Of course every man thinks he is best qualified, and 1 am no exception to the rule. Believing I am qualified to fill this office in an acceptable man. ner I desire to place before the vot- CTS of Precinct No. 1, some of the qualifications and course of action l deem essential to the proper admin istration of this office, in order that you may weigh each candidate and select the man as your servant whom you deem the best qualified to make fearless and conscientious official:
 First and most important for you to decide, MT. Voter, is to select one who will throw his whole strength and cooperation with our government, es- pecially at this time, in enforcing the laws of the land.
 The office of Justice of the Peace is the primary court in most criminal and civil actions If this official will do his duty fearlessly and in, "a con- scientious manner, much of the ex. pensive litigation is saved to the tax payers. Many cases can be finally tried in the Justice Courts which are often held over to the Superior Court the defendants remaining in jail at added expense to the county.
 If chosen to this position I will heartily cooperate with other off. cers of the county and community in suppressing all local misdemeanors and see that proper complaints are filed in felony cases that the viola tors of the laws may have their ex amining trials as speedily as possi ble, and proper bonds set holding them for their attendance at the Su perior Court.
 have been a citizen of Greenlee county for the past ten years, and have always supported the Democra tic ticket, as a private, and this is the first time I have asked for public of lice.
 If I am chosen to serve you I shall show my appreciation by my fidelity to the office, and the conscientious manner in which I shall administer the same.
 Yours trulN)

that women constitute largely those who buy Christmas presents.
 Following is a copy of the state ment sent out, and which the Gov ernment wishes all to read, and along this. line asks the cooperation of the public:
 ''1,he Council of National Defense and Advisory Commission have receiv ed inquiries as to the attitude of the Government toward Christmas buy ing. Manufacturers and merchants are desirous to be advised at this time in order intelligently to plan for their Christmas stocks. Therefore, the Council and Advisory Commis- sion now anounce that it is their belief that Christmas giving which involves the purchase of gifts should be discouraged as relieving to that extent the present heavy burden plac- ed upon labor, transportation and other resources of the nation, and also. as being in harmony with the previous announcement of the Coun- cil and Advisory Commission urging thrift and economy upon the country"

ODD FELLOWS INSTALL
 OFFICERS MONDAY NIGHT

One of the most important events in the history of Copper City Lodge No. 1S4I I. O. c. F. was elebrated last Monday night, it being the 17th an- niversary of the organization of a lodge of Odd Fellows in this district.
 The lodge convened in regular ses- Psion, during which time the officers for the term were installed by John Uren, District Deputy Grand Master, of Morenci assisted by L. E. Rice, Past Grand Master. E. J.. Rubien, John Pascoe, Rod Morrison, Wm. Cuthbertson, Robert Cuthbertson, and E. c. Lloyd, Past Grands of Morenci Lodge No. 22.
 The following compose the officers of Copper City Lodge No. IS: Wm. Patterson, N. G.; Geo. R. Robertson, V. G.; J. A. MacLeay, Secretary; Geo. Reitzer, Treasurer; W. A. Hobbs, War den; David Campbell, Conductor; J. M Pattrson, R. S. N. G.; Wm. Pol lock, L. S. N. G.; J M. Kilsby, R. s. V. G.; John McCulloch, l.. S. V. G.; A. M. Hoy. R. s. s.; Hugh Forbes, Jr., H.. S. S.; Detleaf Heesch, I. G.; R. D. Sessonn, O. G.; E. L. Carter, Chaplain.
 After the close of the regular busi- ness meeting the ladies of Evening Star Rebekah Lodge No. 15 made their appearance in the form of surprise party which added much to the even ing's entertainment.
 Refreshments were served by the Rebekahs and committee from Cop per City Lodge, of which much credit is due Mrs. W. A. Hobbs, N. G. of the Evening Star Lodge, in getting up this part of the program.
 About twenty members from Mo renci were in attendance, also prom inent among the members of the or der were Mrs. Elizabeth Tappin, President of the Rebekah Assembly of Arizona; George Reitzer, Grand Treas urer of the Grand Lodge of Arizona; Chief Justice Franklin, of the Su- preme Court of Arizona E. l.. Baker, Past Grand, Supt. Clifton Schools; L. E. Rice and J. A. MacLeay, Past Grand Masters of the Grand Lodge of Ari- zona.
 Copper City Lodge during the years since it was organized has done great work in caring for it's members in sickness and distress, and the moral effect of the lessons taught in it's ritual has been benefit to many in their daily walk through life.
 Part of the pIoney accumulated in the general fund to the amount of $4000 .00 is invested with the govern ment in Liberty Bonds and War Saw ing Stamps to help win this great war for humanity.
 While this was in reality the 17th anniversary of the lodge, this cele- bration was not intended as such. The fact became known, or rather brought out during the meeting, that the lodge was seventeen years in existence. The meeting Monday nigh, was just an installation ceremony, and had it been remembered that this was it's anniversary a more pretenti- ous ceremony would have been held. As it was it proved to be quite an enjoyable occasion. Many distin- guished Odd Fellows being in attend ance, and the surprise banquet ar ranged by the Rebekahs made it one of the most enjoyable affairs of the season.
