V|G|LANCE WORKERS
 RAID ALLEGED |. W. W.
 MEMBER; ONE KILLED
Republican A. p. Leased Wirel

HILLSBORO, H., Feb. IS.-The at tempt of members of a vigilance com mittee here today to force alleged members of the I. w. w. to profess their loyalty resulted in the death of Clifford Donaldson, 21 year old, and the serious injury of two other men.
 Donaldson was shot when the vigil lance committee called at the home of his father and demanded the surrender of L. B. Irwin, said to be an l. w. w. propagandist and believed to be con- cealed in the Donaldson home. The committee after a short barley was met with a fusillade of shots which caused the serious injury of $. E. Emory, chief of police, and Ernest Elath, who had been assisting Emory. Some one out side the house fired a shot and later it was found Donaldson had been dan gerously injured. He died tonight after an operation. It is believed Emory and Flath will recover.
 Donaldson enlisted in the navy last Thursday and was awaiting a call for service. IIisN father declared tonight he was unacquainted with Irwin and that no man answering his description had been near the Donaldson home.
 The demonstration today came after members of the vigilance committed had obtained what they considered conclusive proof that Irwin and his followers had for several weeks con- ducted an active l. w. w. campaign here. It was decided to make the lead CTS manifest their allegiance to the government or leave the city. Failing to find Irwin, the committed went to his office, piled all of his be- 1 longings into the street and made | bonfire of them.
 | According to Mayor II. $. Butler, eX- animation of Irwin's possessions dis | closed evidences of an attempt by the l. w. w to spread their, propaganda throughout Southeastern Illinois.
 We have tired of the activity of thu | I. w. W. in this city, said Mayol Butler tonight. Our best citizen. have banded together to stamp then out and l am making no predictions d! to what would be done to any of thu | leaders if they are found in this cit, again"
 No arrests have been made.

RAILWAY MEN NEED HIGHER WAGES SAY
 SEVERAL EXPERTS
Republican A. p. Leased Wire1

WASHINGTON, Feb 1S.-The ne- cessity for increased wages for railroad employees was conceded today by rep resentatives of majority of the rail- roads of the United States, appearing for the first time before the govern ments railway wage commission. They said they came, not to oppose requests of the employees, but merely to aid the commission by giving information.
 "Officials need no evidence that the cost of living has increased and that the low paid man needs assistance during the war; declared J. W. Hig- gins of Chicago, executive secretary of the Western Railway committee speaking for the roads of the western district
 No one recognizes more keenly than the arrangements that there are nu- merous classes of employees not prop erly compenSated,' was the statement made for the eastern territory by John G. Walber of New York, secretary of I the bureau of information of eastern | railways.
 Mir. Higgins assertion that the low l paid man should be helped drew from Secretary Lane, chairman of the con- mission, query as to what he con sidered low paid man.
 l would say that all men receiving under $50 month need more money to meet the advance in prices of ne- | cessltles, MT. Higgins replied. Per maps the limit of those who need helE should be raised to $2. 900 a year. which
 seems to be the line drawn by the | government in the income tax law. The
 greatest advance should be given to the 1 lyin 1 Those fellows must be having a stren- | uouS time"

BISBEE Feb 1S.-The quarantine, which for eleven days has been oper- ative in the Warren district, will be lifted tomorrow at noon and guards on all roads leading to Bisbee withdrawn, it was announced tonight by Dr. C. H. Hunt, county health officer Theaters, schools and other public places will be permitted to reopen.
 Dr. W. O. Sweek. state superintend- ent of health, stated last evening that he has raised the quarantine both at Bisbee and at Globe Miami. He speaks in highest praise of the cooperation between the public health officials in the affected districts and the people.
 This friendly cooperation" said pr. Sweek, has made it possible to raise the quarantine in Globe and Miami in record time. It is an exam ple which all sections which may be similarly affected should follow. Globe and Miami took heed of what had been done in Bisbee and profited thereby. In Bisbee there have been no new cases in nine days and in the two districts practically all the people have been Vaccinated."

Republican A. p. Leased Wire1

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY IN FRANCE, Feb. 1S.-(By the Associated Press)-There has been considerable increase in aerial activity in the Amer lcan sector since last night.
 Enemy planes again flew over the town where few days ago an Amer ican field hospital was located and dropped bombs, but without damage One hostile machine was driven to earth in a damaged condition by an American aviator.
 The activity of the American anti aircraft gunners, machine gunners and battery operators kept the enemy ma chimes from flying low enough to get good aim. One attempted to come lower but was hotly engaged bnG driven off. Another was chased down after it had been hit by anti-aircraft fire. All day hostile planes were over the American positions.
 The artillery action also was lively and number of casualties are report ed One shell dropped on a cook tent and wounded six men. Three men in the trenches were wounded by shrap- mel, including a second lieutenant Sev- eral others were injured when a town was shelled.
 Bright moonlight assisted the work of the American patrols last night, but no Germans were seen. A portion of the sector was subjected to a slight gassing by the enemy, but the men put on their masks and there were no casualties.

Special by J. H. Jaque.)

BOWIE. Feb. 1S.-Worst storm in history of southeastern Arizona ragged all day long, turning to snow and sleet, making severe exposure for possemen, yet so determined they stick like tro- jans. A fresh bunch of blood hounds from Globe were dispatched to the sheriff posse at midnight Sunday. Four best Apache trailers from the San Car los reservation and a fresh carload of horses arrived at Bowie at noon today and were rushed to the front. Most of the Globe posscmcn were mounted and dispatched to the front to relieve eX- haustcd posscmen. A telephone mes sage was received stating that Sheriff Slaughter of Greenlee county, with blood hounds and trailers, had struck the fresh trail at the head of Turkey and Rock creeks on west slope limit, leading northeast to the head of Cave creek and Paradise. with the bandits only a few hours ahead of the trailers If the outlaws remain on the summit tonight it will make it easy for the traileTs to pick them up tomorrow with snow tracks. Great credit is given the Slaughter report and, if true, it is be- lievcd the murderers will easily be cap- lured tomorrow

SomeWr zen Globe and the Apache at Rice, Henry Stone, full-b.- Apache is driving his squaw ats papooses home in hearse. Henrys squaw two youngsters. The hearse repre- sents something Henry has always wanted vehicle of distinction and out of the ordinary.
 Recently Henry sold his interest in a piece of White Mountain graz ing land to Robert E. Merritt, we'll known cattIeman, receiving cash in payment. For several days the Apache remained in Globe spending the time in looking around for carriage that would please himself and his squaw. Several au- tomobiIe dealers tried to inveigle him into purchasing a "gasoline buggy" but Henry didn't want any thing to which he could not attach his ponies.
 Some enc in Miami finally sue qested that J. C. Niles, undertaken, had a carriage bound to please the most fastidious and Henry asked to be shown. He looked it over and his squaw scrambled into the back and closed the door. 1t was nice and warm and she enjoyed the observa- ton features. Henry had to have it then and Niles sold his the outfit, discarded sometime ago for a motor vehicle. Henry hitched his ponies to the hearse, put his family inside and started out on the long drive home.

WAR REVIEW
 OF THE DAY
Republican A. p. Leased Wire]

With Russia in the grip of interne- cine strife and her battle line denuded of men as a result of the peace declara- ton of the Bolshevik, Germany al ready has begun the carrying out Of her threat of invasion because of the failure of the Bolsheviki to sign a peace compact with the central powers A dispatch from Berlin announces that German troops have crossed the Dvina river.
 Reports emanating from Sweden say that the Germans have begun push ing forward their troops into Russia's two remaining Baltic provinces-Es- thonia and Lixonia-the taking of which would completely isolate Russia from the shores of the Baltic and give the enemy, in addition to the port of Riga, the city of Reval, situated on the Gulf of Finland opposite Helsingfors. Although Austria Hungary had shown dissatisfaction over the stand that Germany has taken toward Rus sia, the dual monarchy evidently has been placated by a promise of Germany that any German military activity will be confined to northern Russia and Austria Hungary left to deal with whatever other problems may arise in 1 the territory adjacent 10 her borders. Related dispatches from Petrograd l tell of the capture of Kiev, the new 1 capital of Ukraine, by the Bolsheviki The fighting is described as having been of an exteremly sanguinary char acter, four thousand persons having i been killed and seven thousand wound ed. Great destruction was wrought i in the town by shells and explosives dropped by aviators.
 At Odessa another big battle has been fought between the Bolsheviki anC the Moderates. during which Warships in the harbor bombed the city. Polisf legions at Minsk are declared to have been sanguinarily defeated and put tc route. while the Bolshevik also are reported to have captured Tonogorod on the Black sea, and Voronezh, capi- tai of the province of the same name
 On the battle front Tn France an6 1 Flanders the operations continue of a minor character. except for artillery duels on isolated sectors and here and there raids of more than the usua violence. The only attack of import ance along the entire front has beer in Champagne on the sector where tho French, aided by American gunners l captured German positions last Tues day.
 At this point, which is situated south. west of the Butte du Mesnil. the Ger mans. after heavy artillery preparation attacked and gained footing il French trenches. Later. however, the, were elected and in addition the Frencl took prisoners.
 On the American sector near St Mihiel the Germans have increased their aerialreconnaissance and boml dropping expeditions. The American anti-aircraft guns are forcing the en emy planes to keep at high attitudes One of them has been driven dowI damaged by an American aviator.
 Twenty seven persons were kille, and Al injured in the air raids mad by the Germans on London Saturda, and Sunday nights. A third raid wa attempted against the capital Monda, night.

Registration for City Primary
 Is 5,631; Setting High Record

When the books for registration of voters for the approaching municipal primary election closed at 10 o'clock last evening, a rec ord breaking enrolment had been recorded. Exactly 5,631 names ap- pear as eligible voters, a figure far in excess of any previous regis tration for a primary election. While it has been said that there are upwards of 1000 potential voters in Phoenix, those who have made this estimate have failed to take into consideration the fact that practically everyone of the young men who have enlisted or who have been called under the selectiVe draft was eligible to register and that the sending of these men into the service of the country has taken from Phoenix just that many who would other wise be registered for this cleo ton.
 From now until primary cleo ton day the registration books will be closed, but in the event that a mayor and two commis- sioners are not elected at the pri- mary election and general cleo ton is thereby necessitated, the registration books will be re- opened for supplemental registra- ton the day following the primary election and will remain open until ten days before the general cleo ton.
 At the last primary election 3,560 votes were cast and 1t was said then that the heaviest per
