This, or these rather, are the millstones used in the first grain mill in Yavapai county after the white settlers came flor Indian metates and grinding stones with which acorn and grass seed meal were made are found on auy hillside. ...
 But these stones were cut out by hand by a white pioneer of Yavapai and used many years in a little mill for corn and wheat. Now they lie, or did recently, in the yard at the famous Burnt Ranch" owned by John II. Stephens, one of Yavapai's

SMOOT PUTS In WIDE
ANTI-DUMPING BILL
To Protect American Industry
From Unloading Of Foreign
Products Here.
AIMED AT THE GERMANS
Utah Senator Tells How Teu-
tons Stifled U. s. Manufac-
ture Before War.
spscta, Despatch TO ras Sun.

Spectdt Dcspdtch 10 THE sun.
wAsHINoToN, Oct. 7.--Sehator smoot
(Utah). introduced to-day general
antl-dumping bill intended to protect
American industries from the effects of
unloading foreign products pending pas
sage Of new protective tariff legislation.
The measure is along the same general
lines being prepared by Representative
Fordney (Mich.), chairman of the
House Ways and Means Committee.
Several bills have passed the House
dealing with particular products with a
view to giving needed prote, tion for
Industries established during the war.
Tungsten. zinc, dyes and some other ar
t.cles are covered by these measures,
but 1t developed that there Is no general
opposition on the Democratic side Of the
Senate to going further with these meas
Ures at this time.
Senator Smoot said there were enough
dyestuffs at German ports nov to pro-
vide the needs of all their pre-war mar
kst and to meet the requirements OF
this country for two years.
Take the case of oxaiic acid" said
Senator Smoot when / was in the
manufacturing business using dyestuffs
1 bought hundreds of thousands OF
pounds of 1t at Q cents a pound. Then
1t began to be produced In this coun-
try and the Germans Immediately began
| lowering their price until It got down
to 6% cents. The American industry
vas simply sfnothered ana as soon as II
ceased producing the German price went
Lack TO cents. We want to prevent a
repetition Of that experience"
The Smoot bill Is largely devoted to
definitions to fix the foreign markot :
value and other terms to determine
whether products are being dumped here
at less than their cost OF production
Thus foreign market value at the place
of production" is declared to be the
average price within a period to be
determined by the Tariff Commission at
which the same merchandise is freely
sold In the country of production. In
the absence of such a standard, or
where the price Is less than cost. the
Tariff Commission Is authorized so %
declare and the cost of production is
substituted In determining values.
The Tariff Commission may certify to
the Secretary of the Treasury that Il
finds particular industry requires pro-
lection from dumping. The anti-dump
ing 6uty Is TO be added to all other
duties or excuses Once in effect II
shall continue until the Tariff Commits
sion certiies that 1t may be properly
withdrawn.
II the Tariff Commission is unable
to procure information as to the cost
the Treasury must forbid entry of mer-
chandise pending investigation. II the
desired Information Is refused the goods
may likewise be excluded. The COM
mission has full authority and discre.
ton in conducting Investigations.

STRIKE LESSON IS
SEEN BY PREMIER
Public Will Not Tolerate La
Dor Prussianfsm, Says
Lloyd George.
PROOF OF DEMOCRACY
Calls Himself Laboring Man
in All Except the Eight
Hour Day.

LONDON, Oct Proof that Great
Britain is really democratic country
was furnshed by the recent railway
strike episode, Premier Lloyd George de-
clared in an address to-day.
Speaking at the Mansion House at a
reception to Field Marshal Allenby, the
conaueror of Palestine, to whom the
freedom of the city was given, the
Pfemier said:
Now that the episode on the home
front Is over. all ranks and classes must
work together The country needs II.
we all belong to the working classes IN
this country. l claim to be working
man in all except the eight hour DAY.
The strike proved that this Is really
democratic country where public opinion
must prevail
= "Prussianism In the industrial and
economic world must not prevail Great
Britain has once more rendered a deep
and lasting service to real freedom by
defeating an effort to hold up the COM
munity and strangle It into submission
The nation means to be strong, hrfn and
just. bat always master"
During the course Of his speech, Pre-.
mier Lloyd George made the interesting
revelation that he had left the peace
conference in February expressly be.
cause he soresaw the coming labor dif.
ficulties.
The Government then started an or
ganization, which, he emphasized wal
purely civil and not war organiza'
tlon, under the chairmanBhip Of the
Home Secretary, in preparation for the
possible necessity of assuring the couh'
try's food supply.
This organization. the Premier added

ization. as many people supposed, and
this was an important fact to remember

Just avernse men. They did not realize
the power and potentialities of automo-
hles. They thoueht they would starve
the community by stopping the railways.
They discovered two thingt-that Great
Britain is a finely roaded country. where

tremendous upheaval we have just gone
through and hundreds OF str kes taxing
place throughout the United States
There IA 10 question OF tn erecognition Of
the labor unions in this country. Every
skilled worker belongs to q union, and
the employers want him to.
Ten years ago, when l acquired the
control OF the London Times, this ancient
Institution was what Is known as an
oren shop. 1t had never allowed trade
unionlsm. expressed my urgent wish
to the mechanical staffs that they should
become members of the various labor
unions to which they are attached, and
there are now members of fifteen diff
ferent labor unions working In this and
every other newspaper office In Great
Britain.
81 believe that the labor unions make
for smoother relations. without the
labor unions our strike last week would
have been a civil war. 1t was the control
of the. men by their leaders that made II a
peaceful struggle, OF which as Bfiton
feel profoundly proud. Our situation is
quite difrerent from yours. Here our
labor Is homogeneous. When visited the
great plants in your country at Bridge
port and Detroit. for example, heard
dozen languages spoken around me. Our
people. as have said, are Homogeneous.
They are either English, Scotch or Irish,
speaking one language and with very
similar methods of thought and educa-
tion.
ANY comparison. therefore, between
labor in the United states and the labor
In Great Britain is irrelevant. That your
men should be stirling for the recogni-
ton OF the labor unions seems to us
like going back to the middle ages, but
then, as 1 have said, conditions on both
sides of the Atlantic are entirely diff
ferefit"

Congress Enters
Last 2 Weeks With
Profusion of Bills

WASHINGTON, Feb. 16.-The Sixty
fifth Congress enters tomorrow upon
the final fortnight Of its existence
with hope Of passing all of the almost
unprecedented mass or pending legis-
lation virtually abandoned by mos
leaders. Night sessions Of the Senate
and House until March i have been or
dereG, but the belief is growing that
an early extra session of the new Con
gress will be necessary for the enact
ment of some OF the annual approprla-
tlon measures.
Pressure this week Will be concen-
trated on money bills, but admittedly Y
progress viii depend largely upon de-
velopments in connection with the pro
posed constitution OF the league Of
nations
Should general discussion of this
document follow the return of Pres
dent Wilson from France some lead
ers believe passage of any legislation
after that time would be almost out
OF the question.
Congestion of legislation now is
centred IN the Senate, which has
two-thirds of the appropriations bills
passed by the House. The army ap-
Precipitation measure probably will be
completed by the House early this
week. House leaders hone to pass
all urgent measures within ten days.
