2. "The workers living conditions must be
made dignified and attractive to himself and his
family. Nothing is of greater Importance. To
provide proper homes for the workers is one of
the most urgent and elementary duties of the
employer or, if he has not the necessary means,
then it becomes the duty of the state.
THE worker must be relieved of the dread
of sickness unemployment and old age. It is ut
terly inadmissible that because industry slack

his family should therefore be condemned to suf-

5. Labor, on the other hand must realize that
high wages only be maintained if high pro-
duction is maintained. The restriction of produc-

in its effect on labor. The primary cause of pow

production naturally makes for high costs. High
wages accompanied by approximately high cost

good And they do the rest of the community a
great deal of harm. The welfare of the so-called
middle-classes, i. e., the men and women living
on moderate incomes, the small shopkeeper, the
average professional man, the farmer, etc. is just
as important to the community as the welfare of
the Wage-earner. If through undue exactons,
through unfair use of his power through made

is bound to be of infinite harm to his legitimate
aspirations. Precisely the same, Of course, holds

BOYS CHARGED WITH
 COMMITTING UGLY CRIME

TOMBSTONE, June 24.-Deputy Sheriff Tom Foster, of Lowell, re- gently brought in two youthful pris- oners charged with serious statu- tory offense, for which they have been held to answer to the superior court, under bail of $10,000 each. The two boys, named Clyde Crossland and Tom Reed, are charged with abducting two girls, Violet Hudson and Zerma Zum- walt, both of Lowell, to Naco, where they are alleged to have kept the girls in an old adobe building where they brought negro soldiers to visit the two girls. Both of the girls are said to have been assaulted numerous times by the soldiers, as the result of the activity of the two boys among them. As soon as the officers ascer- tained the disappearance of the girls they went in search of them, finding them at Naco.
 At hearing before Judge Win ters at Lowell, the two boys were bound over to the superior court under $10,000 bail, while the girls were also held under $500 bonds each to appear as witnesses at the case.-Tucson Citizen.

PRINCE OF WALES A MASON

The ceremony of the initiation of the Prince of Wales into Freemasonry took place in London recently. The Duke of Connaught, the Grand Mas ter, attended, and the officers of the day included distinguished representa- lives of the Household Brigade. There was an imposing assemblage of Grand Lodge officers, including the Pro-Grand Master (Lord Ampthill), Deputy Grand Master CT. F. Halsey), the president of the board of general purposes (Sir A. F. Robbins), and the Grand Secretary (W. Bro. P. Colville- Smith). Pastmasters and members of the lodge brought the total attend ance up to about 80. The Grand Mas ter took part of the initiation cere- mony himself, and deputed some other distinguished Freemasons to carry out the remainder.
 It is of special interest to note that the Household Brigade was conse- crated by King Edward in his Grand Mastership when Prince of Wales, and that its warrant therefore bears the signature of the king.

 GRAND CANYON JULY q

k. H. Crabb, chairman of the State Livestock Sanitary Board, who with l., L. Harmon and w. w. Cook, of Phoenix, will represent the Arizona Cattle Growers Association at the meeting of the 1919 tax conference of county assessors, members and clerks of boards of supervisors, and the state tax commission at the Fl Tovar hotel, Grand Canyon during the week begin ming July 21, is advised of the pur- pose of the meeting by the secretary of the tax commission as follows:
 "This conference is for the purpose of Investigating the valuations, as shown by the assessment rolls of the several counties, on all classes of property so that just and equitable equalization may be made thereon. Taxation is an all important subject this year, due to the greatly increased expenditures of state and nation made necessary by the war, and this con ference should consequently, prove to be of exceptional benefit and interest.
 "The commission is of the opinion that the testimony given at this con- ference, which is used to consider able extent by the State Board of Equalization when it meets during the week beginning the first Monday in August, is of great importance and value to you, particularly this year, when conditions are so affected by the war, and strongly urges that you make every effort to be present at this meeting"

INDIAN, SENTENCED
 FOR LIFE, REQUESTS
 THE DEATH PENALTY

When John Johnson, a Cocopah h. dian convicted of murder of the medi- cine man of the tribe, was sentenced in the federal court at Phoenix re- gently and received life imprisonment, he requested that the punishment be made death, at the same time assert ing his innocence.
 Judge Sawtelle told him that he could not be sentenced to death, be- cause the jury had specified that he should not be.
 "Then I will kill myself" declared Johnson.
 "You must not do that" replied the court.
 Johnson was led away quietly with his companion in punishment, Bill Da- wis, also a Cocopah, who was given life Imprisonment at Leavenworth peni- tentiary. They were taken away on the prison train Wednesday morning by U. s. Marshal Dillon.
 Both Indians were picturesquely costumed. They wore trousers and coats, but their long black hair was done up handsomely. Johnson tied his in hank with cerise ribbon, and also had blue kerchief as necktie. Davis wore his hair in figured red turban and had baby pink tie. He is young man of 30, while Johnson is about 45 and has a handsome black mustache. He was the chief of his tribe.
 The motive established by the pros ecution for the murder was the fail ure of the medicine man, Joe Barley, to stop the influenza epidemic, which was decimating the tribe, living near Somerton, and employed on the farms.

JURY
 DISAGREES AT PRESCOTT

PRESCOTT, June 25.-After eighty hours deliberation, the jury trying Mrs. BeInice Anderson on the charge of having murdered John Wilson, May 9 last, finally reported on Saturday that it was unable to agree, and was discharged. The jury stood II to 1 for acquittal.
 The county attorney intimated that the charge against Mrs. Anderson would not be dismissed since, he said, the woman on the witness stand con- fessed that she had shot Wilson and that she would do it again under the same circumstances.
 It is understood counsel for the de- fense will make another effort to have the case dismissed and to have Mrs. Anderson committed to an insane asylum.

50 TONS DYNAMITE
 FIRED IN ONE BLAST

When Engineer F. H. Cronholm general superintendent of the Rive. Division of the Imperial Irrigation District, pulled the switch which de. tonated 50 tons of dynamite and com pletely shattered a mountain esti- mated to contain 100000 cubic yards of granite at Cantu, Mexico, a few miles south of Yuma, the greatest en- gineering blast ever occurring upon the American continent took place. The noise of the explosion could be heard for miles, and for more than half an hour in all directions the air was so thickly laden with dust and flying particles it was impossible to see more than few feet.
 The big blast was made by the Im- perial Irrigation District in order to obtain rock with which to protect the levees on the Colorado river at Vol cano Lake.
 When the dynamite was exploded rocks from the size of baseball to those weighing a hundred pounds were thrown into the air for hundreds of feet. The dust caused by the ex : plosion was so thick that for minutes after the pulling of the switch it was impossible for the sunlight to filter through, and it was as dark as night within a radius of five hundred feet. Thousands of tons of rock were thrown over on the Southern Pacific tracks of the International railroad, the road which connects the Imperial Valley with Yuma, thereby tieing up traffic along that line for hours until it could be removed by big derrick which the Irrigation company keeps at Cantu.
