COPPER PEOPLE
 ARE LOOKING AHEAD
(From Tuesdays Daily.)

Luther E. Warde, representing a
 Houghton, Michigan, copper syndi- cate, who has just returned east, stat cd the option deal for the McGillgan holdings of eight claims along the
 Verde River in the eastern section of the county and near the Maricopa boundary line, had been closed up. Beginning sometime in June i: is. agreed to start development on a small scale. The values arre mainly copper, but gold is essential in clos ing this deal in which the ultimate price to be paid will be quite heavy.
 MT. Warde stated there are two factors for his company to enter this field, and they are: First, copper is to assume its standard rating in due time, probably not for two years; and second it is believed that after the railroads revert to former ownership, approximately within the next eighteen months, it is assured the Mesa Clarkdale line will be construct ed. He also stated the Michigan peo- pie to take hold in this county are also interested in the fields adjacent to Miami and Ray, and it is their purpose to start operating in all three localities this year.
 Mir McGilligan is now in Jerome buying supplies that will be packed into the camp, and he will be retain ed for the present to carry out ex- ploration as recommended by the engineer, who left Prescott on Friday for Miami. The seller is a son of Captain McGilligan, who was stationed at Fort Whipple many years ago with the llth infantry, who is now deceased

'' Mrs. Denntler also stated she had been coached by her husband to not give him away as being a foreigner, and this she obeyed. When the Ger man army collapsed and the armistice was signed Denntler got full and showed his cloven foot to a bunch of miners who also were intoxicated. "On November 2 he got payment on the mining deal. and We went to Reno for q few days then to Oak land, and later to Frisco, where he deserted me with only $32.50 in my pocket"
 She is asking for her interest in the further payments to be made in the mine deal, alimony of $50 per month, and an absolute divorce when her grievances are adjudicated. She was given a decree by the Judge who mar ried them eight years ago. Denntler while in this county was a cook by occupation, and his wife always as sisted him.

FEEBLE-MINDED A MENACE
Serious Problems Arising Through Lack of Control of This Part
 of Our Population.

For the first time in the history of the world it is possible to form some definite idea of the extent of feeble mindedness The Army draft reveal cd the presence among drafted men of something more than 3 per cent ot mental detectives. This means 30 out of every 1000. About per cent were of the imbicile class; that is, of a mental endowment which would en- able them to advance as far as the first or second grade in the public schools. About 2 per cent were of the moron" class: that is, capable of advancing to the fifth or sixth grade but incapable of developing judgment sufficient to meet the demands of life.
 Feeble-mindednes is known to be a biological defect in nearly all cases, due to imperfect nervous tissue and quite incurable It is also to behave as a Mendelian "recessive," so that if two feeble-minded people marry, the

 The state rested Attorney George Bullard in opening his statement for the defense said he expected to n-ove a series of threats by Hoctor against Newman extending over a year, and expected to account for the failure of the officers to find Hoctor's gun. He also expected to prove Newman fired only after Hector fired point bank at Newman.

offspring will all be feeble-minded. This means that a pure strain of feeble-mindedness can be established in this way. What percentage of the feeble-minded come of these estab- lshed strains, and what percentage are occasional is not known Those who are most familiar with the sub ject are of the opinion that a majority .of feeble-minded people come of feeble-minded stock.
 Delinquent Through Heredity.
 It is no longer questioned that the feeble-minded figure very largely in all social problems. An overwhelm- ing majority of prostitutes are feeble minded. A high percentage of crim- inals and delinquents and many pau pers and ''ne'er-do-wells" are also of this class. The hobo is frequently. ii not always. a mental defective. The honest workman out of a job suffers unjustly because the ranks of the un- employed are vitiated and discredited by the considerable number of un- employabie always found in this group.
 The feeble-minded are about three times as prolific as the intelligent classes. This fact furnishes one of the most appalling problems of race welfare.
 What can be done?
 Schemes for promoting engenic marriages are as yet impracticable. But something might be done to pre- vent what we might call "un-hygienic" marriages?
 The writer knows personally of of feeble-minded women ot low grade who have married in Ari- zona and borne good sized families of children. In some cases, the fam fly have tried to prevent the marriage but no law could be invoked and their efforts failed
 If the feeble-minded keep up the present rate of increase for another SO years, the problem will assume such proportions that it will appear almost insoluble. The question of expense naturally comes up. The Predetermined are already costing every commonwealth sums of money running up into the hundreds of of dollars in court fees, destruction of property, assistance to destitute families, care of neglected taxing the public school system with the retarded and un- teachable child, the cost of venereal and in almost unnumbered and unrecognized ways. The last item alone amounts to thousands ot dollars of industrial loss in every State. Ninety per cent of venereal disease can be traced to the prostitute class That the feeble-minded girl who cannot take care of herself should be accorded the protection ot society is not only dictated by con- mon humanity and by the Christian but by ordinary self-interest.
 The consideration of some practical means to check the increase of tne cannot much longer be ignored or postponed. It would seem that the medical profession should take the initiative in this matter.
