HAROLD ELLIOTT, GREENLEE- SENATOR,
 YAVAPAI PRODUCT.
(From Thursdays Daiiv.l


 Leaving for Phoenix on Tuesday, w. w. Elliott of this city stated that his mission to the capital was to meet his son, Senator Harold Elli- ott, elected from Greenlee county, on the democratic ticket While the father was elated over his youthful son attaining such political consid- eration, nevertheless he seemed vis- ;bly affected in the partisan raiment adorned by his offspring, saying that the latter was the only member of the family who had switched over to the other side of the fence.
 Senator Elliott is a Yavapai rais- ed young man, and for many years resided in Prescott, until ne entered the Michigan University at Ann Ar bor, from which he graduated a short time ago. Equipped with an excellent professional training, he took to the field and started to "hoe his own row." His initial leap into political life was a success, and his future is filled with promise.

PRESCOTT BOY IS
 HAULING TRAIN INTO PARIS
(F1om rhursdav,s Daily,

NTlOhl ISl S0dS -(dAAJ'J
 Jack Blount has just written from Paris to Mrs. Kate Blount of this city and states that he has a fine job which consists of hauling a train over the American express line into the city of Paris at the rate of 7l miles per hour. He says in part;
 q am enclosing you a picture of the class of engineers which the U. S. has over here. I am at present running a compound French engine into Paris now on the America ex- press. Our running time averages about 7l miles per hour. I have just received my certificate from the French examination which I took about month ago on mechanics. l had to go to school for about two weeks. Will soon send you a post card that my French girl took one day after I had got off the engine at Tours. I don't know what these French girls are going to do for some real, live loving after the Am erican boys have left France.
 "The only things that I want for Christmas is a box of candy and some blades for my safety razor. Can't say just when we will return to America. Have lots of flu over here, but as I drink plenty of good rum, it hasn't bothered me yet, and I don't believe that it will"

COPPER PEOPLE BEGIN
 MOVING IN EARNEST
(From WednesdaY's pailv.l )

(Frorn WSQneSQay OdllN.J
 The magnitude of the operating plans which are now under headway on the McAIahon and the Zonia cop per holdings in the Placeritas dis trict, is beginning to occasion general and favorable comment, arrivals dur ing the week from that section say ing that both properties are facing a fine future. The syndicate in con trol was organized in Cochise and Pima counties, the principals being practical miners, and the general manager on the ground personally directing is R. R. Mcdonald, resi- dent of Arizona for over twenty years and prominently known Op- orator also ill the south.
 The purchasers have taken over two groups, but the McMahon unit as yet is the only active point. The Zonia begins moving early this spring after communication is estab-
 
 lished to the point selected for main development. Quite a force is now employed on the McMahon, and re- ports state that cuprite of copper and a copper glance condition IS be- ing exposed as old workings are be- ing penetrated. This content is to be shipped and it is expected that the first product will be delivered to the Kirkland station this month.
 The mine force is now being in- creased in the original workings and he new zones to be placed in action at once will require a large force. It is reported that those points cnurned drilled some years ago will be selected for developing in prac- tical manner. determinations previ- ously made being known to the op- orators in charge. So confident are these people of the future that teaching plant has been ordered tc treat the lower grade product, while other heavy outlays have beer agreed upon in constructing new wagon road from the ZQnia to con meet with the main highway into Kirkland. Mine machinery is also en, route, while miscellaneous equip ment of a modern character also mas been ordered for the two operating centers.
 These two huge copper undertak- ines. under joint ownership, are backed by private capital and closely controlled, publicity being withheld by the management, and no stock is to be placed on the market. The ad- vent of this company to that field IS having wonderful effect already in stimulating other mines into action and deals are being considered ac- cordingly, with options also now be- ing given to await the outcome of the revival of the McMahon and Zonia.

HORRIBLE DEATH COMES
 TO THIS ARIZONAN
(From Wednesdays Daily.)

Mrs. Ella Burry, writes from Hon olulu, H. l., of the death of her hus- band, Josiah H. Burry, which occur red during. November under circum- stances of horrible suffering. He was engaged at his trade as painter on sugar plantation, and became infected with glanders by close con- tact with an effected horse. The press report says:
 'Mr. Burry, it appears, had this malady communicated to him while he was at the head of the horse ad- iusting the bridle, when the animal was attacked with an intense sneez- ing spell, and by this means the deadly virus easily reached him, and he also fell a victim to this disease. His sufferings were frightful and he passed out in convulsions while un- conscious. His head assumed mas sive proportions, but the body re- mained natural in size. He was bur jed privately and in g bed of quick lime. The horse was killed
 The Burrys made their home in Prescott for some years, leaving. here after Fort Whipple was rebuilt, where Mir. Burry had sub-contract in painting many buildings.

BOARD ID . TURN UP TOES
 ON JAN. 15TH
BIG EFFORT IS BEING MADE TO ROUND UP REGISTRANTS WHO DID NOT RETURN I'll FIR OUESTIONNAIRES.
(From Thursdays Daily.)

(From Thursdays Daily)
 c. C. Richards, chief clerk of the local draft board, yesterday receiv- ed orders from the war department calling for the disbanding of the or ganization on January 18th next About the only thing left for the board to do is to make an effort to round up number of slackers who have been hanging over since the last draft, and instead of forgetting about these fellows, the department has announced its intention of going after them with a vengeance. The county attorneys have been instruct ed to join hands with the boards in all effort to apprehend as many of the laggards as possible and after they are nabbed, the law will be glv- en a chance to do what it will with them.
 Yavapai county has at present only 2l slackers-men between the ages of IS and 36 who registered for the last draft and then did not return their uuestionnaires. In some cases the ouestionnaires did not reach the men addressed. and in other cases the documents were known to nave been delivered to the reglstrants, but for some reason they were not returned. Because of the fact that the registration and the accompanying activities have been pretty well 2d- vertised throughout the nation, the department presumes that every per son of ordinary intelligence was aware of the workings of the draft law. Every registrant was supposed to know that he ought to have re- ceived and filled out questionnaire consequently if he did not receive il shortly after it was mailed, he should have investigated the matter and ascertained why his question naire did not reach him. Therefore, all who have not returned thelr question sheets are now listed in the stacker class, and their only saliva ton at the present time will be to hurry ID and square themselves with the hoard before their case gets to the county attorney
 The Yavapai board announces that it has listed the following-named men in the class referred to above and suggests that if any of the friends of those so posted know any thing regarding the whereabouts oi the registrants, they notify the lat, ter that they will get in peck o' trouble if they do not get right witll the board instanter:
 ! Murray Ramsey, Nitro, w. Va. i Vint Hudgins, Lavenne, MaricOpa county, Ariz.
 Louis Bridewell Rippey, Cincin- natl, Ohio.

 MT. Kyle stated yesterday that he IS not surprised at the showing be- ing made, as many years ago he worked in this mine, and was ia niliar with what was left behind. If was due to this situation that he re- turned from Colorado for the spe- cific purpose of negotiating for this property.

MAKE THE BRAIN SODDEN-render it,
by constant soaking in beer, only half
active-and you have a being more akin to
a brute than a man Tractable7 Yes-but
never dependable
MOVE NO LONGER hold a Deer soaked
people up as examples of-anything
AMERICAN GENERALS found that
men who went over the top sober we're
better able to do their part and take care
OF themselves-especially if wounded-than
were soldiers who had grog served to them.
to lend an artificial. momentary courage
THEY EVEN TRY-the Saloon propagan-
dists-to make you think our soldier boys
resent the abolition of the saloon
WHAT AN INSULT to those brave boys and
to your intelligence.
AS IF EVERY AMERICAN SOLDIER
were a topper so addicted to his booze that,
like a dope fend. he would fight If deprived
OIL
THAT'S THE VERIEST ROT OF course.
They know it is-else why do they not dare
say just what this Beer and Wine"
Amendment really means7
WHY DO THEY TRY TO HIDE it's real
intent under an innocent sounding title
and hide its meaning again by a tricky use
of words Why?
BECAUSE THEY KNOW that the people
who voted Michigan dry still want it dry.
And they know too that the votes OF the
men will now be supported and augmented
by the votes of Michigan women-and they
know what that vote will say
THEIR ONLY CHANCE to get the saloon
back is to make you think they Want some
thing else For they know you want no
more of the saloon.
1T is THEIR LAST forlorn hope-their last
dying kick, The saloon is gone never to
return The longer we are without It
the less we miss 1.-THE less does anyone
want it back.
THEY'D LIKE TO DRIVE a wedge in the
Fedora act by getting this amendment
through in Michigan. That is the big sig
nificance of this attempt--that IS why so
much outside money s being spent in
propaganda here
TRUTH TO TELL there ISN'T much Michi-
gan money being spent-Michigan brewer
les and Saloonists look upon II as a dead
issue They are making other plans and
are NOT sending more good money after bad
BUT OUTSIDERS are still frantically trying
to get Michigan back n the wet column so
as to prevent nation wide prohibition and
the utter dismantling OF every brewery and
discllery n this country.
FOR THAT KIND OF PROHIBITION does
prohibit-no more chance for disgraceful
scenes ike that recently between Toledo
and Detroit.
THEY HAVE EVEN TRIED to make this
appear a religious ssue-their propaganda
says some denominations are against a'dry
stare.
IT'S NOTHING OF TILE KIND tewmen
of all denominations favor a Wet condition
But the vast majority of all religious de-
nominations are for n dry state and a dry
nation
THIS ISN'T A MATTER OF elgion; ot sect;
OF nationality 1t is lust a matter of de-
cency and sanity and good citizenship as
against owdyism
WATCH THIS 7HING-it is counterfeit.
1t does not mean what # says IT. dtle
is a misnomer. Its intent S vicious. 1t
dresses n the guise of Gberty-"personal
lberty"-its Eject would be &c =nsIave
again
1T IS CALLED THE Bee and Wine
Amendment"-its real name IS the Saloon.
Do WANT the saloon back
IF NOT-vote NO April 9TH to
the so-called Beer and Wine"
Amendment.
