 This was the cablegram sent to President Wilson yesterday by prom inent Democrats in the MassaChU- busting of the Postmaster General was urged also by City Councillor

 with the powers behind the fight, and
 nothing else could be expected of him,
 man who made all his money ex-
 plotting prison labor.
 We cannot expect any other treat ment than what we are receiving
 from a man Of this kind. As a public official 1t Is hard for me to go on the
 stump and criticize q member of the

START NEW MOVE FUR
 VALLEY FARM LOANS

A local organization, embracing land owners from practically every district coming under the Roosevelt reclama- ton project is now being formed as the latest move to obtain federal farm loans for the farmers of the Salt river valley. This fact developed yesterday, coming from Charles Van der Veer, secretary of the Water Users associa- tion.
 The Water Users, Dr. Van der Veer explained, are trying to put up to the federal farm loan bank for this district a concrete case, in an effort to obtain farm loans for the valley. Valley farmers were unable a year ago to obtain farm loans from the govern ment, their application being rejected on the grounds that under the recla- nation project the government holds a first lien on the lands under the pro- ject thus making it impossible for the land bank to obtain a first mortgage on the land.
 that under the local project, valley lands are eligible for federal farm loans and should be placed in the same class as private reclamation project lands which obtain the loans
 With the perfecting or an organiza . zation, a concrete case of asking a farm loan will be presented the district land bank and if it is refused, the case will then be appealed to the land board at Washington

Sparks of Douglas, who has just returned from Chicago and other eastern points with Ed. Tovrea and S. ].

 UnequaIIed in West
 There will be nothing equal to the new plant anywhere in the west, ac- cording to officials of the company and the plant here will be as modern and complete as anything west of the Mississippi river. The plant and equipment will cost complete approXi- mately half million dollars.
 Construction will be of fireproof concrete throughout even to the roofs of the buildings. The nam building will be 1855 by S5 feet and four stories high. It will have a capacity of handl- ing 250 cattle, 750 sheep and 1000 hogs per day. The live animals will be carried by conveyors to the top floor, slaughtered there and the entire series of operations carried progressively downward until the multitude of fin ished product are delivered at the ground level. About 150 men will be employed.
 In addition to the main building there will be a power house, 50x60, two stories; an ice and cold storage plant 50x60 feet, two stories; press room 50x56 feet, with a changing room fl the second story; tank house fol rendering fats. 34x50, two stories: ant a 50x50 foot one story office building

We will be able from the beginning to use 800 to 500 tons per year, but there will be no limit to the amount that can be profitably grown, for we can sell all that can be produced. More than half the crop in the whole United States was partly spoiled last year by rains during the harvesting period, and this will not occur here, as you have a dry season at harvest time here and no possibility of either loss or reduction of quality from that reason"

DEFENDANT IN LAST
 CRIMINAL CASE WAS
 EXTENDED LUNAT|C

The last case on the criminal docket of the Superior Court was that of Jesus Hernandez, charged with assault with intent to kill. With that dis posed of there would be little else to engage the attention of the county at torney's office during the vacation sea = son. Hernandez was arrested for try ing to make pulp of the head of a sleeping woman in the southern part of tn city short time ago.
 When brought into court yesterday morning Hernandez pretended to be crazy. He stood before the court and refused to answer any questions put to him or to sit down. When an at tempt was made to seat him he be- came violent and it was necessary to throw him upon the floor and sit upon him. He was finally lodged in chair. Then he was taken down stairs and the jury was discharged. There was some talk of bringing him to trial on a charge of insanity.
 I But the state of his mind had al- ready been passed upon by a compe- tent court, though perhaps not a court of competent jurisdiction. Soon after he was arrested he was suspected of feigning insanityN He was turned over to the judge of the xAfiearoo court as a functionary with more aexperience in such matters. Thezkapearoo court is also better equippedH& the treatment of such cases. ASIkrf sof the equip ment is an instrl5iNez Known as a cob It is a long and rather stiff heavy strap.

FACTORY
 MAY BE LATEST
 INDUSTRY HERE
Fl Paso Men Here Plan to
 Open New Manufacturing Plant-Broomcorn Would
 Be Adde to Valley Crops

A brand new factory for the city of Phoenix, and a brand new and highly profitable crop for the farmers Of the Salt River valley, may result from the visit to this city of D. A. Arnold and c. R. Gibbs of Fl Paso yesterday.
 The new proposed factory is to be a broom manufacturing plant; the new and profitable crop will be brOomcorn. The factory will be started as soon as a suitable building can be found, con taining about 800 to 500 feet of floor space to start with, the firm intending iater to erect their own factory here, according to the El Paso men.
 Until the first large crop can be grown and harvested here the new fac tory win use the product of the Yuma valley and other sections where broom corn is now grown, that section now furnishing most of the brush used in the Los Angeles and Fl Paso broom factories.
 Start Operation in Fall
 We plan to begin operation by the middle of September" MT. Gibbs said last night at the Adams, If we can se- cure a suitable building soon. I have had the plan of starting a factory here In mind for more than a year The conditions are ideal. Phoenix has grown to he a good distributing center with fine territory adjacent The Salt River Valley grows the best broom ,orn I have ever used, having secured small quantities grown here in an eX- 1erimental way.
 "The crop is profitable. tI sells fol from $500 to $500 a ton and under the climatic conditions here should produce at least a ton to the acre. I believe il will be possible to get three crops { year here, the broomcorn growing uI again after being cut by the simple means of another irrigation to start it.
