the Kolchak government. The Presi-

him up and possibly offer recognition il
he will guarantee a real democratic
government in the territory occupied.
The Russian problem may not be set

THE German reply also ignores the
immense relief that will be caused to
her people in the struggle for recovery
by the enforced reduction OF her mill

thousands of her inhabitants who have
hitherto been engaged either in training

satisfactory to the German people
But the first condition OF any such

REAL PHILANTHROPY

Men with money can do no better
giving than has f. #. Conner who re-
Gently gave $4,000 in Liberty Bonds
to permanent fund at Wesleyan
College in Macon for the education OF
poor girls who are unable themselves
to pay their own way
Men of wealth are increasing in
the south. We have many more now
than we had during the quarter of a
century following after the civil war.
Higher education, and in fact all
kinds of schooling, went to the lowest
ebb A. man who was boy in those
days worked for the sustenance of
a widowed mother and some orphan
children. A girl OF those days went
to no college in the south. Very few
of them wered educated That meant
full half century of poor schooling
for the boys and girls
But today we are coming out Of all
that and the boy and the girl of this
age has much to appreciate in the
changes for the better. With the in
crCasing number of large hearted
men who would do more for educa-
ton among the poor, likewise the
number needing real training is in
creasing. If we but knew all, there is
an army of poor girls in Georgia now
prevented from getting the educa-
tion they would have if they had The
means. These. too, are among the
very best.
MIR. Conner has done more with his
fifty thousand than men of today
ever dream Many a poor girl viii use
this fund and pay it back with inter
est And when she has her education
| she will make for good citizenship
i'm whatever walk of life she is
thrown. Can any one measure the
good the Conner fund Will do in the
years to come?
Let us hope that more wealthy
Georgians will follow suit and plant
their money in permanent endow
ments with the educational institu
tions of the state so that the boys and
girls who want education may not be
barred because of their poor circum
stances.

BOGUS CHECKS SHOW l. UP AT LOCAL BANKS

Following the loss of Pacific Gas and Electric check book, containing blank checks from 1001 to 099, at least four bogus checks with poor forgeries for signatures have turned up in Phoenix banks.
 The company issued a warning yes terday. asking merchants and others who have been in the habit of cashing their pay checks to be on the lookout for any checks between those two numbers. If an attempt is made to cash checks carrying numbers between i0e1 and 1899, they are forgeries.
 Three checks bearing the signature Of A. J. Frey, auditor of the P. G. & E. were easlied ir Phoenix. In each case, no attempt was made to initiate the signature. The checks were one for $40 and two for $34.60.
 The company has no clue as to who could have possession of the book It was originally lost by a time keeper between here and Prescott. A large gang of men has been working on d new transmission line from Prescott to Phoenix and it is thought possible enc of them may have found the book and is now using it.

A statement was issued at the time by the attorney generals office that the proceeding was brought at the request of both Ingalls, and Harris ana their attorneys, but this was denied by both Ingalls, and the governors attor- neys the next day This matter is still pending, and will probably not be heard until the hearing in Judge Lyman $ court is completed Monday
 Meantime, the secretary of war, New ton Baker, took hand. First he wrote to the governor, stating that the war department recognized him as the head of the state military depart ment, and saying that they would take up all matters pertaining to the mili- tary in the state with him, to be re- ferred to and handled by whom he might designate. The secretary of war also stated that he would recognize matters pertaining the military com ing from Ingalls, as coming from the proper adjntant general of Arizona.
 But the straw that broke the eamel's back, in this letter, was the determina- ton to turn over to the governor all letters and telegrams and such com munications, received hy the war de- partment from Harris.
 Then a little later the secretary re- quested the postmaster general to or der the local office to turn over the ad- iutant generals mail to the governor which meant tfat Ingalls, would get it And then, fiEs fly, Ingalls, was made the custodian Of the federal property in the state, pertaining to the military.

Dr. Vickers who had lived in Arizona for more than generation was about sixty years of age and a native Of England. He came to this country when he was twenty-one years of age after having seen much of the world, having lived for a short time in India, He practiced his profession in the eastern part of the country and came to Arizona as physician for the Con gress Mining and Milling company. Al that time the mine was owned by Diamond Joe" Reynolds. the famous Mississippi river steamboat owner and the promoter of the Santa Fe Prescott 6 Phoenix railway That enterprise was undertaken at the instance of the late Frank M. Murphy with whom pr Vickers was closely associated until the death of Mir. Murphy.
 After leaving Congress Dr. yickers no longer practiced his profession. IT 1899, with s. N. McCowan, Dr. yickers purchased The Arizona Republican anc couple of years later he bought the interest of MT.

 During the last administration oi Governor N. o. Murphy he served as territorial. auditor.
