GERMANY TO PAY
HUGE INDEMNITY
Initial Payment Of 20,000,0O0,-
600 Marks Required in
Two Years.
40 BILLION IN THE NEXT 80.
And Forty Billion More When an Inter
allied Commission Shall Deter
mine Definitely How 1t
Shall Be Done.

PariS.-One hundred billion gold
marks ($23, $500, 000,000) is the amount
Germany must pay the allied and asso-
ciated governments for losses and dam
age caused in the var, plus other bill
lions to b. determined by special
commission On which Germany is to be
represented,
This is the final and definite con
clusion which has been reduced to
writing after weeks of negotiation
which took wide range and involved
frequent changes and notifications.
The payment of the 100,000,0O0 900
gold marks is to be divided into three
distinct amounts as follows:
First.-Twenty billions within two
years.
Second.-Forty billions during 30
years beginning in 1921.
Third.-Forty billions when a com
mission shall determine how it shall be
done.
In view of the fiuctus lions through
which the negotiations have passed an
authoritative statement was obtained
concerning the final terms of the set
Elements. This sums up the conditions
as follows:
Germany is at the outset held gen
orally responsible for losses and dam
ages in accordance with President Will
sons fourteen points and the allied
response at the time the armistice was
concluded. To determine the extent of
the payment under this responsibility
commission is set up to take teSti-
mony, assemble data and arrange all
details Of the payment from the enemy
and distribution among the allied and
associated powers.
While the commission will admins
ter the details of the payments, suffi-
cient is known to permit the determi-
nation that an initial payment will be
required of 10000, 100000 gold marks,
payable in two years without interest.
1t has also been determined that 40
000,000,000 gold marks shall be paya-
bic in bonds extending over a period
of 80 years, beginning in 1921, with a
sinking fund beginning in 1926.
These 4O,OO0,000 900 marks draw 21a
per cent. interest from 1921 to 1926
and 5 per cent. interest after 1926
In addition to the foregoing pay
ments, Germany will also be. required
TO deliver additional bonds for 100000
100000 marks, when the commission
determines that this shall be done
These three payments of twenty, for
~ and forty billions bring the total
to 1O0.000,OO0,0C0 gold marks.
Beyond this total the commission is
empowered to fix anything more than
may be required TO cover Germany's
Indebtedness.
1t is in the gold mark that all pay
mentS are expressed in the final terms.
This excludes deprecated paper marks
and fixes the standard of payment in
gold The gold mark is worth about
the same as the English shilling and
before the war was quoted at 1882
American cents.
The allotment of the 100,00O.00O, 900
marks among the allied and associated
powers has not yet been finally de-
cided, but tentative arrangement
makes the allotment of France about
80 per cent of the total, Great Brit
aims allotment between 20 and 80 per
cent and the allotment of the United
States between and 8 per cent.

CLAIM AMERICAN RUSTLERS
 STEAL MEXICAN CATTLE

| That certain Ammerican residents along the border are engaged in the practice of stealing Mexican cattle and disposing of them on this side of the line, is the charge laid before the state live stock sanitary board by the military authorities at Nogales. Sew eral complaints have been laid before the commanding officers of the No gales division, and concrete evidence is at hand showing alterations of brands. saIr -i-~.- Secretary Ed w. Stephens of the board, is inclined to accept the charges as truthful, as this is not the charac- ter have been made. He will lay the matter before the next meeting of the board, with the result that some definite action may be taken to bring the cattle rustlers to bay.
 If the situation becomes more ser ious, or if the military authorities deem it advisable, it is likely that the state livestock sanitary board will hold public hearing at Nogales some time this month, in which op- portunity will be given for the filing of evidence by Mexican cattlemen who claim to have been wrongedt if neces- sary roundup of all cattle OF both sides of the border may be orderei.

Take Me Back To Arizona

The author of the following verses recently passed to the Happy Hunting ground. He was a full-blooded Hopi Indian. The product of his pen is on no mean order and indicates peculiar talent in verse making. The main idea involved (the bringing back of the old order of things in Arizona) is not particularly elevating, but his al- most savage call for return to those primeval conditions is almost pathe- tic especially in view of the fact that members of his race were forbidden by law to enjoy with the white man indulgence in the "joy water" of other days. But let Mike tell his own story: Take me back to Arizona as it was in
 early days, ,at a, Ere the cowboy on the ranges had
 the motion picture crazey @ Let me see the festive puncher with his broncho on the run, Coming into town and shooting up the
 landscape with his gun. Let me see the chuckawallA and the
 Gila Monster, too; e Of the murderous Apache let me ges
 a fleeting view.
 Let me see frontier -squabble as it
 was in days of yore, When the "bad man" on the border
 wadeG in sea of gore. Take me back to Arizona and the
 plains of alkai; I On the cactus-covered mesa in the desert let me lie. Let me hear the rattler rattling as he
 crawls about the sand;
Mohave County miner and our mineral wealth., 1919-08-09

And the rustic cattle bawling as they
 feel the red-hot brand. Let me see the city marshal make a
 gun-play in the street, And the victim later buried with his
 boots upon his feet.
 Take me back to Arizona; let me see 'f poker game,
 As in the days when it was prudent
 not to ask strangers name. Take me back to Arizona, where they
 sized fellow not By the noodle that he carried, but the a. skill with which he shot; Where towns were short on water,
 but all-fired long on gin; Where there never was much mourn
 ing when fellowman chached in. Take me back to Arizona, among the
 coyotes, snakes and such. Where brand-iron was suspected, 5, and a rustler hated much Take me back to Arizona, when it
 lived its wild career, And they had a man for breakfast
 every morning in the year. Take me back to Arizona Arizona
 rough and wild; Where the days were dry and dusty, E and the whisky wasn't mild. Let me live those stirring frontier
 days, the days when all was new When the faro-banks were frequent and the churches mighty few. Let me join the sheriff's posse and get 2 on a horse thief's track, Where hanging-bee was likely if
 they brought the fellow back. Take me back to Arizona-to the
 balmy days I saw, a N When high-heeled boots were fashion,
 and forty-five the law!

DROUGHT, HURTS Y.
 NORTH RANGES

Drought conditions have seriously threatened some of the livestock rang es of Wyoming, Montana, Idaho and other grazing states to the north ac- cording to reports received from a variety of source and published by the Agricultural Extension Service of the University. M. A Some of these drought stricken ar eas are from grazing districts where shortage of grass has never been a source of alarm. In parts of Wyom- ing a letter states that less than one half inch of rain has fallen since early in the spring and that herds of well bred Herefords will have to be cut down to permit the range to carry the balance. l5 A shortage of water and range is reported from Idaho. About 13,000 head of sheep have had to be moved from Montana ranges to cut over and burnt over lands in northern Mime sota as the droughts have made many Montana pastures unsafe for stocking to capacity.
 Cattle and sheep men from Montana are now in middle western states in vestigating suitable places to move large numbers of stock which will be necessary unless heavy rains come soon. Marketing experts of the De- partment of Agriculture advise the selling of cattle and sheep from such districts to feeders and breeders in middle west states where feed is av- ailable.
 Arizona summer rains, 4 inches in some districts, have put a brighter aspect to the livestock situation in Arizona; now if market conditions would improve the industry in Ari- zona would not be so bad after all.

IMPROVE
TO LATIN AMERICA
Conditions FAVOR Continued
Growth of Trade.

The Improvement that is noticeable in
American export business with the
countries OF South and Central America,
and certain Of the West Indies, is in
marked contrast with the uncertainty
which at present prevails in the trade
with other parts of the world. according
10 a statement made by the Philadelphia
Commercial Museum. --- =
In its opinion the natural momen-
tum which carried exports to European
countries to unprecedented heights Is
losing its force and the purpose of the
governments Of those countries to allow
trade to seek its level through the action
Of natural economic laws, as evidenced
by their failure to take any steps to
protect their exchanges. would seeming
ly stand in the way of the United States
recovering in the immediate future any
Of the ground lost during July.
At least the outlook for Improvement
is not bright pending the formulation OF
some comprehensive plan for extending
long term credits to the European buy
ers and until a considerable amount of
credit has been extended under that
plan. Exports to the Far East are
quiet and there is a tendency for ship
ments to Australia and New Zealand to
fall from their relatively high levels.
In contrast with these conditions there
has been in recent weeks a steady I'M
provement in export business with the
Latin American countries.
