Spanish Situation Serious Rumor
Lenine Landed at Barcelona, Denied
MENACE TO WORLD J. II
BY REDS IS SEEN

to the sufferings which the speak
er has undergone rather than
founded on a dispassionate review
of the situation, these views were
confirmed to a great extent by the
remarks of a Danish diplomat
just returned from Russia, which
appeared in The evening news
paper, 81 'Her,re'', on Christmas
Day. The diplomat asserted that
Lenine was man of great and
unsuspected ability, who had pur-
sued from the beginning a care
fully planned course Of which the
pre-ent events were but the logi-
cal conclusion.
TO the bourgeois and intellec-
tual elements who had at first re-
sisted him he gave the choice
"Obey CIR starve." And now those
who had not starved were obeying
and training soldiers Or emissaries
for abroad. :
To believe that Bolshevism
meant nothing but disorganiza-
tion he added, was to make a mis-
take for which the world might
pay dearly in the near future.
Here again one has view contra
ry to the generally accepted OPT
mon. at least as far as France is
concerned.
Inquiries in official circles lead
to the conclusion that in reality
the situation in Russian and East
crn Germany is giving the artho-
rites a good deal more anxiety
than The public imagines.
ALLIED ACTION HAAIPERED.
Anti-Bolshevist action is ihamp-
cred by three factors first, the
difficulty of the Allies agreeing
among themselves on exactly how
and TO what extent it is to be car
ried out; second, the reluctance
of the troops and the French peo-
pie generally to engage in Win
ter campaign in Russia, franght
with the ominous memories Of the
Crimea and of Napoleon's retreat
from Moscow third, the fear that
such action, if carried out, might
defeat its own object by causing
Bolshevist ideas to spread and be
disseminated more widely thorugh
the advertisement, or appeal to
public attention, thus afforded
them.

source, which l have always

The boy of the house had come across some animal pictures in his geography.
 "Why is it animals have so many different kinds of skins ?" he asked.
 "That, my son, is what is called pro- tective coloration."
 What does that mean?"
 Well, for instance, the zebra and the tiger are striped so their bodies may be concealed in the tall grass"
 "Oh!"
 And the polar bear is white so his body is not easily discerned against a backing of snow and ice."

 And the backs of many birds arc streaked so they will be almost invisi- ble in underbrush."

CONDITION OF LIVE STOCK
 AND RANGES IN ARIZONA 4

Although nights have been cool, the live stock has been favored by fair weather during the past week. Ab- sence of snow on the high elevations has encouraged cattle to remain on summer ranges and many are still there. The bulk of sheep and goats, however, has started for winter range. Owing to the abundance of forage the stock will make the change with but slight shrinkage. As might be expected from poor range conditions of last year the calf crop is reported from many sections as being small. A number of stockmen are weaning their calves this fall, thus enabling cows to recover condition before winter. Some yearlings and two-year-olds are being sold out of the state in considerable numbers, but movement of fat cattle from the range is slow. Roundups in the southern part of the district are about completed.

CROP PROGRESS IN ARIZONA

Frosts in the lower valleys have been generally beneficial to cotton causing late bolls to open. The weather has been unusually favorable for picking. It is estimated that not more than 35 per cent of the crop has been gathered.
 In the northern counties fine wealth CT is permitting the completion of potato harvest and encouraging ship ping. In the Flagstaff section 25 per cent of the shortage of the crop is charged to climatic conditions, while another 25 per cent is charged to the blight, the first time the latter has been serious in that locality. The season has been unusually favorable for wheat, which is yielding from 20 to % bushels per acre.

Marie Taylor, Elmer Jackson and Reaches Hook motored to the Grand Canyon Sunday.
 How much the Normal students en- joyed the unexpected "free night" 1" given them Wednesday evening was evidenced by their attendance at "The Wilderness Trail" Especially was this picture attractive in that so many of us saw it in the making last win ter. And since seeing the film we still hold to our opinion that Flagstaff scenery is the most beautiful on earth.
 The reorganization of The Pine staff was effected last week on an en- tirely new basis. The controlling body consists of a board of directors elected by the students, whose duty it is to appoint the editor in chief and business manager who in turn choose their assistants. Miss Thelma Harvison now has the editing of the paper in charge, while Miss Mary Beckwith attends to financial matters. The members of the directory board are as follows: MT. Hendrix, faculty advisor; Edith Harrison, president; Gus O'Connor, secretary; Annie Akin. Della Gist, Colyar Emison, Seigfreid Soder and Jackie Humphrey. Every effort will be put forth to make this paper the best of it's kind.
 Miss Beatrice Hicks was hostess at birthday party given in honor of Miss Loretta Bondesson on Tuesday evening. The other guests were Miss Esther Carr and Miss Edith Harrison.

A small boy of the Jewish persua- sion who was playing at the end of the pier fell into the sea and was only rescued after great difficulty by an intrepid swimmer, who dived off the end of the pier and succeeded in get ting the boy into rowboat.
 Half an hour afterward, much ex- hausted by his effort, the rescuer was walking off the pier when man came up and tapped him on the shoulder.
 Are you the man what saved my son keys life?"
 "Yes," answered the much-exhaust- ed hero.

KANSAS CITY WEEKLY
 STOCK MARKET REPORT

KANSAS CITY STOCK YORKS, Nov. 3.-A scramble for hogs today, both by packers and shippers, carried prices up 50 cents to $1.00 hundred pounds. The top price was $15.25. Cattle receipts were 30,000, or 5000 larger than the early estimate. The market was steady. Sheep were in active demand early at strong prices, but closed lower.
 TOday's Receipts
 The early estimate was 27,000 cat tie, but the late count indicated 30,000. This was a decrease of 5000 compared with week ago, and II ,000 less than the biggest Mondays receipts in Oc- tober. Hog receipts 5000, were 5000 less than week ago, and 7,700 less than year ago. Sheep receipts were 1000, or the same as week ago, and $500 hess than a year ago. The strike situation thus far has not af- fected the movement of live stock, ex- cept in some sections stock cars are being used for hauling coal.
 Beef Cattle
 The weakness in the cattle market late last week was followed by in creased demand today with prices quoted steady. Medium killing grades which showed the bulk of the decline last week in some cases were quoted higher today. Full fed steers were scarce. Several punches of the short fed steers brought $15.00 to $16.75. The bulk of the grass fat steers sold at 5000 to $12.50, top $13.50, canner cows sold at $5.35 to $5.50, cutters $5.75 to $7.OO, and the butcher grades SIPS to $1O.5O. A few prime heavy cows sold up to 12.75. Veal calves were strong at $8.50 to $16.50.
 Stockers and Feeders
 Good to choice stockers and feeders sold readily at strong prices, but the plainer kinds were slow at weak prices. Several punches of feshy feeders brought S12.50 to $13.50, or as high as any time last week. The stockers were steady at $8 to $11.50. A good many good Panhandle and New Mexico stockers were offered. Stock calves sold at $S.50 to s12.50.
 Hogs
 Hog prices today advanced 50 cents to $100, mostly 75 cents. In a wild scramble between packers and ship pers, the advance carried prices here above other markets, and the entire supply had changed hands by 10:00 o'clock. Compared with the low point ten days ago the market now is S2.50 higher, and within $1.00 of the high point in October The top price was $15.25, and the bulk of hogs sold at $14.5O to $15.00. Light re- ceipts are given as the cause of the advance. The movement of hogs since the middle of October has been show ing decrease. Early November usu- ally develops an increase. Pigs and thin hogs advanced as much as fat grades.
 Sheep and Lambs
 With only 1000 sheep here today the market opened strong, but Chi cago raised receipts to 45,0O0 and quoted lower market. That caused a lower close here. More Eastern markets report increasing supplies of short fed sheep and lambs, but so far only a few punches have arrived in Kansas City. Fat lambs are quoted at s14.25 to S15.50, yearlings $10.0O to $11.00, ewes $7.00 to $500, anl
