MINORITY STRIKES

New York Times.
 If all unionists struck together they could impose their will upon the other nine-tenths of the community for so long a time as the preponderant ma jority would submit to unionist dom' ination. Sometimes a minority of a minority attacks the general welfare In this current month Seattle starts it's triple alliance of trade unionists, railway brotherhoods and farmers. They have postponed their declara- tion of principles until January, and until then "an agitation for organi- zation unity will be continued" It will be necessary, and in proportion that it is successful there also will be necessary an agitation for unity against this intrusion of Sovietism or Bolshevism regardless of law or req son.

NEARLY 5000 TROOPS
 IN DOUGLAS DISTRICT

IN DOUGLAS DISTRICT
 DOUGLAS, Aug. S.-Army recruits are arriving at Camp Jones and other parts of the Arizona military district faster thah men are being discharged. For the week ending last Saturday the district showed a gain of ITO men over the previous week.
 Recruits are being received more rapidly at outside points than at Camp Jones. However, last week the First cavalry gained 50 men and the 18th infantry 15. The Tenth cavalry, at Fort Huachuca, gained so and the 25th infantry, at Nogales, 50.
 There are now approximately 5750 officers and enlisted men in the Ari- zona district. Douglas has 22O0; No gales and environs, 2300; Ft. Hua- chuca, 1000. There are numerous small attachments scattered at va rious places, as for instance, SS at Naco; p at Lowell, and 160 at Globe, Miami, Ray and Jerome.
 Emergency Men Impatient.
 No additional information has been received at district headquarters con- corning the time when emergency men will be released from the serv- ice. The date may be affected con- siderably by the action of congress in making provision for the army. As yet the president has not issued his proclamation declaring the emerg- ency has ceased 10 exist and under the law emergency men may be held for four months after the issuance of the proclamation. This would be practically until the first of 1920.
 IL is not believed, however, that the men will be held nearly that long, the general impression being that wholesale discharges will begin the last of this month. Most of the emergency men are extremely anx | ious to get back into civil life.

ROSS HOPES TO COLLECT
 R. R. INHERITANCE TAX

PHOENIX, Aug. S.-H. s. Ross. state treasurer, is ever finding new sources of revenue for the state treas ury. His latest endeavor in this di- rection is 10 ascertain if railroad stock cannot be assessed with other property of an estate in determining the amount of inheritance tax.
 In two estate matters which are before him. there are numerous hold ings of Santa Fe and Southern Pa cific, stock In one estate there is over $1,00O,OOO in stock and in anoth CT the amount is $24S,000.
 Heretofore such stock has not been considered on the ground that it rep resented property not in Arizona but in many states. Comes now Ross with the idea that 1t ought to be an

EDUCATION THE SOLUTION

New York Herald.
 There is one solution in England as in America, and that is economic education and political union against radical socialism. Government own ership is not wanted in England nor in the United States. We have had enough of it here-so has England: but it may require a political read justment in both countries to stem the tide. For these reasons Ameri cans view England's present crisis with no little anxiety and trust that the war against radical socialism and Bolshevism threatening the heart of the British empire will be as sue cessful as the war against Germany.

AVIAToRS NARROWLY ESCAPE
 IN ACCIDENT Ar YURA, ARIZ

YUMA, Aug. S.-United States army officers manning a border pa trol airplane on it's first regular trip along the border from Rockwell Field, Cal, to Yuma, narrowly es- capped death yesterday morning when the machine they were driving land' ed upside down in a cotton field be- longing to w N. Bunton in the San Pasqual valley. Lieutenant J. A. Madarasz and Lieutenant A. B. Chap man, the aviators manning the plane, were not injured.
 After arriving over Yuma the avia- tors were unable to locate the avia- ton field. They circled over the city for forty-five minutes and until their supply of gasoline had become so low that an immediate landing was neces- sary. The officers picked out the Bunton cotton field as the safest place in this vicinity to make land ing and volplaned to earth.
 As the machiAe came down 1t top ped" the cotton for several hundred wards, then hit and ground and turn ed over. MT. Bunton had just finish ed irrigating the cotton and as re suit the wheels of the plane sank into the mud The suddenness with which the plane stopped caused 1t to turn over.
 A large crowd gathered at the place where the airplane struck the earth. The aircraft was but slightly damaged and was speedily righted The aviators crawled out from under their machine without scratch. The plane will be dismantled and shipped hack to Rockwell Field.

THAT ARMY FOOD SALE

New 1OTh Ouu.
 In the United States there are more than 2O,0O0,00O families. Their food bills are now running, at the most conservative estimate, more than S5O,0OO,O00 a day, more than a billion and a half of dollars a month, more than eighteen billions of dollars year. Distribution amounting to only a dollar a head for one single time isn't going to make a dent in such colossal food crisis. If the house of representatives wants to get at this problem in earnest, and surely it does; if it wants to help the public at once it must get at the funda- mental cause.-the cause which is opA erating so disastrously at breakfast, at dinner, at supper time, day in and day out, week after week and month after month. This is the Washing ton administrators jackscrew under the price of breadstuffs.

THEIR AFFAIR ANYWAY
Springfield Republican.

SprlngIlelQ RepuDllcan.
 What Germany meant by intimate economic relations with Belgium is further outlined by the revelations made by the national Zeitung in re- gard to the views of the military au- thorities in 1917. They contemplated the inclusion of Belgium within the German customs union, German con trol of Belgian taxation and Belgian railways, the adoption by Belgium of the German monetary system, etc. Not a shred of Belgian independence would have been left. Whether the Germans choose to blame William II or Ludendorff Or Michaelis is their affair, but they do not have to look outside their own country to fix the blame for the protractien of the war and the ruin of Germany.

Al McManus Victor
 Over Bobby Green

TUCSON, Aug. S.-Bobby Green was knocked down twice in the con cluding rounds of his ten round fight with Al McManus tonight. Only the gong saved him from a knockout at the end of the tenth round.
 The first knockdown came in the ninth round and the last at the end of the tenth round. He got to his feet and was sparIing for time when the gong rang.
 The fight was clever throughout. Both men showed class and speed. McManus had the advantage of Green in weight, reach and cleverness. Green fought gamely.

ANOTHER TRY FOR BUDGET New York World.

The senate anticipated the house in appointing a committee to report on the budget system, but if both agree upon that step for the present it should be fair promise of positive achievement next winter Former Speaker Champ Clark pointed out the real danger to this reform when he said that, aside from the house ap- Propriations committee, there are six other appropriating committees, and that gives you 147 consolidated votes against reducing the powers of those committees" The test will come when the national interests are weighed against the personal wishes of a large number of members to re- tain their present powers as commit teemen.

GIRL MAKES SOME
 CANNING RECORD

SAFFORD, Aug. S.-It is not an uncommon thing for the girls in the canning clubs to can 250 jars of pro ducts, but it is quite different story when every jar of that number rep resents a different product. Such was the achievement accomplished by Miss Wyona Taylor, aged 15 years of Pima.
 This is the high record for the state, the previous high record being held by Miss Opal Webb of Pima, who put up 211 varieties. The real significance of this accomplishment can only be realized when it Is ex- plained that this record stands high among tho records made throughout the United States.

MAKING WHIsKEY STILLS
 IS NEW OUTDOOR SPORT

PHOENIX. Aug. S.-Large num- bers of stills for the manufacture ot pure corn whiskey are being made and used right in the city of Phoenix and just as many more are being used in various hidden places around the county, according to Sheriff Montgomery The sheriff stated yes terday he was well aware certain in- dustries in Phoenix were furnishing materials for the making of stills, but that it was next to impossible to se- cure evidence against the manufac- turers of whiskey, due to the fact that the stills are small and it is easy to attach them to a nearby sewer, thus stifling all odors that might betray their presence.
 Evidence that hundreds of dollars worth of corn whiskey is being made hereabouts was secured few days ago when a well-set-up still was con- fiscated west of the city. The run of liquor, had it been allowed to go through before the arrest of the man in charge would have been worth over $500. The still had capacity of 14 barrels.
 The whiskey which is being made is pure white in color and contains a large percentage of alcohol. The fed eral authorities are handicapped in searching for the illicit stills by a shortage of field men in this vicinity. but the sheriff is cooperating with them and the two offices together are doing everything possible to make it hot for the whiskey makers.

THE COLOMBIAN TREATY

New York Tribune.
 The only light thrown on the req son for the transfer is that which shines dimly from the preamble. Though it is not said Colombia is in the market to sell her friendship nor that this country is in the market to buy block of it, the absence of a mention of any other consideration would seem to imply that the trans action in some way relates to a vend- ing friendship; and that, this coun- try being payer and Colombia payee, we somehow purchase and she some how sells.
