Khaki Looks Good

Said a gentleman the other day: T was in a certain street recently, and there were two young men, pure bred Americans, sitting in an auto mobile near by. Both apparently within the draft age and sound in body and mind. While observing them, aAd wondering why they were not in the service, saw a Chinese citizen approaching, clad in reguia- tion khaki, who was on furlough from his training camp. Oh, boy! Right then I thought the khaki was the most becoming uniform I ever saw, even on a Chinaman."

From the manner of registration of the voters in Greenlee county it seems that few will there be to op- pose the election of the Democratic ticket.

The Democrats compose the major number of registrants so far assert ing their party affiliation, and as the registration is drawing to a close, most of the voters have already reg istered. Up to last Monday 2,131 had registered as Democrats.

October 6S IA TO GO 3-4c. the market
underwent general sag at later rail-

Lower quotations on hogs made pro-
