 Use of Force Must End.
 Senator Underwood said the time has come when contests of "brute force'' between capital and labor must cease and that the rights of labor should be recognized and protected by law as are those of property. These conditions, he said, "are primitive' and collective bargaining cannot be pursued against general public inter est. Use of force in diminishing or increasing wages must end, he declar- ed, adding, however, that he did not favor laws requiring labor by compul- siOn

DEMONSTRATE
 REMARKABLE RESULTS

Senator Arthur Capper, republican United States senator from Kansas has done some figuring in an attempt to solve the high cost of living, with rather startling results. According to Senator Capper, the democratic ad- mlnistration's attempt to reduce high prices by breaking down entirely the cost of food has resulted in "the re- markable spectacle of a rise of one per cent in the cost of living, coinci- dent with market drops that are put ting live stock raisers out of business and causing serious losses to other producer"
 Illustrating the anomalous situation of farmers and consumers, Senator Capper says: "It takes AZ bushels of wheat to make a barrel of flour. The wheat raiser gets about $8.37 for the wheat, the miller $12.7O, the bak- CT $58.70, and the hotel keeper here in Washington, as it is doled out in thin slices, $587.
 Without visibly helping the consul mer we have brought about crisis in our most fundamental and vital indus try by forcing the producer to ac- cept prices at which he cannot con- tinue to produce, while he and the con- sumer are compelled to pay prices at which they are forced to curtail the home demand"

BORDERLAND ROUTE
 HAS HAD ITS TROUBLES

The Coconino Sun, in an account of meeting of the Old Trails Highway at Flagstaff, quotes one of the speak CTS as follows:
 "The purpose is to devise means for improving the Old Trails Highway, especially through northern Apache county, to offset the determined and aggressive effort that is being made in the southern part of this state-espe- cially in Phoenix-to complete the highway through the south and thus divert all tourist travel to that route. He asserted that Phoenix hustlers are preparing to open a summer resort in the White mountains and divert Flag staff's summer tourist business to that new resort. He said that the Old Trails Highway is S5 miles shorter than the new Magdalena route spon- sored by Phoenix. Practically all of the Old Trails route has been taken care of in permanent road-building plans except the strip through Apache county"
 We do not know anything about the Phoenix route through Magdalena, but we do know this, that Phoenix has never "shot square" with the Border land route and the Old Trails route need not be surprised at anything the Phoenix crowd may do on the road matters, since all the Borderland got their lesson at Mineral Wells last April. But Phoenix can never pull the traffic away from the Old Trails route. It's one great asset is the Grand Can yon, which will always get the traffic. We want to call the Suns attention to the fact that Yuma, Tucson, Tomb stone, Bisbee and Douglas have no fight on the Old Trails. We are will ing that they get all the traffic pos sible because we are big enough,

BULLY FOR JIMMY LOCIE
 AND THE DISPATCH

By virtue of deal closed yesterday, The Dispatch Publishing company purchased from Jacob Scheerer the two-story brick building, 526-53O Eleventh street, a part of which it has occupied during the life of the pres ent corporation. The consideration was $19,500.
 The building has frontage of 50 feet by IA feet depth. It is of red brick and two stories high. The Dis patch Publishing company believes in the future of the city and thinks that it has made an excellent investment in the purchase of its home.
 The Dispatch Publishing Co. was organized July 1, 1909, to take over The Douglas Dispatch, then operating under lease by the Coll brothers. At that time the mechanical equipment was what would be termed sketchy, being composed of a four-page Cot trell press, No. 3 linotype and badly rundown job office. A "pony" tele- graph report of 800 words was re- ceived.
 Hard, consistent work has counted for something in this business, as is shown by the fact that the present equipment consists of 12-page Du plex press, No. IA, No. and No. 3 linotype machines, the very la test style steel type cabinets which have replaced the old-time wooden frames and imposing stones, and full equipment of new type. The job department is equipped with the la test type and most up-to-date machin- cry.
 Since the company was organized it has been under the active direction of James Logic, who is president and gen. eral manager. Judge Albert M. Sames is vice president and G. M. Logic, sec retary and treasurer. The only other are H. T. Cuthbert, of this city, and Harry DeFord, of Tue Dispatch.

Within the next IS months the shortest route across the continent will run from Fl Paso, through Doug- las, Bisbee, Tombstone, Benson, Tue son, Ajo, Yuma and to San Diego, the only route open every day in the year, and soon we will have plenty of traffic going to the coast via either the Old Trails or the Borderland route via Benson and Ajo. We wish the Old Trails route good luck. There's room and business aplenty for the extreme northern and southern routes-Tomb- stone Prospector.

LIVESTOCK AND RANGES
 IN ARIZONA

Unusually heavy rains have fallen over the southern and desert sections of the range district, saturating the soil and giving an impetus to the growth of winter annuals. Winter ranges have been greatly improved by the downpour and stock has suf- fered but little as temperatures have been moderate. Fortunately in the north where it has been colder, pre- cipitation was unimportant. Reports from nearly all sections indicate that little feeding of range stock will be required during winter. At this writ ing, Wednesday morning, indications point to general rain and snow storm tonight and Thursday.

CROP CONDITIONS IN ARIZONA

Owing to recent rains orange pick ing has been interrupted to a great extent, but packing and shipping have gone forward encouragingly. All the cars necessary have been placed at the disposal of shippers, enabling Arizona navels to reach market four weeks in advance of such fruit from other sections. A carload of large size and superior quality was started to the New York market Tuesday as an opener of the Arizona orange sea- son. Although cotton picking has been delayed by rain and some damage done to lint, there has been some com pensation in the softening of bolls by the unusual moisture. Agricultural activities in the northern counties have closed for the season.
