Mrs. Tacy j. Bowman, of Washington

pastor of johnson Memorial church,
read the ceremony in the presence of
the immediate family. The bride was
attired in a smartly tailored suit of
dark blue with accessories of gray.
Her corsage bouquet was of pink rose
buds and lilies of the valley. She is a
young woman of unusual charm and
has attained marked popularity since
coming to this city about twelve years
ago. She is a sister of Stuart H. Bow
man, one of the best known business

themselves for a sovereign mandate to
their representatives. They are to in

But that is precisely what the peo-

Wilson's direct request-and he paid
not the slightest heed to their verdict
The President now asks for judg-
ment on these two points:
DO you want your cOuntry's
honor vindicated and the treaty of
of Versailles ratified? Do you in
particular approve of the League
of Nations as organized and en-
powered in that treaty."
We do not know how Senator Hard

Democratic presidential candidate and
every Democratic candidate for Sena-
tor and Congressman should be COM
PEELED in advance definitely to declare
that he will abide by the verdict of
the people next month on these two
points-that he will abandon the
League of Nations "as organized and
empowered in that treaty." if the peo-
pie so direct; that he will not follow
the Wilson example of 1918 and ig-
more an adverse judgment.

WILSON WANTS SECOND YER.
DICT, OF COURSE.

On october "a, 1913, two weeks be-
fore the congressional elections, Pres.
ident Wilson issued a statement from
the White House addressed to "My
Fellow Countrymen," in which he sale
among other things:
IF you have approved of my
leadership and want me to con-
tinue to be your unembarrassed
spokesman in affairs at home and
abroad, earnestly beg that you
express yourselves Enthusiastically
to that effect by returning a Dem

Il am your servant and will

This appeal made the issue. The
Republicans promptly and squarely
met it. The elections were held.

The national headquarters of the
Democrats at New York joyously is
sues the information that Senator
Gore, of Oklahoma, will at once take
the stump for Cox and Roosevelt. The
Senator is man of notable forensic
ability and an impressive personality
and has always been an effective fig

Confidently with this announce
ment from headquarters Senator Gore
gave to the reporters CT New York

of his position on what many of the

very issue. | might have been re-
nominated if had yielded on that
issue, but refused to yield, even
to bring about my own renomina-
ton"
About the time the Senator shall
actually get upon the stump it is
promised that President Wilson will
write few letters in support of Gov
ernor Cox. May we not anticipate
with confidence that he will indicate
his qualification with the broad and
catholic spirit that enables the cam
paign committee to exploit at once the
Gore antagonism to the league, while
warmly unfolding the President in his
whole-hearted devotion to it.
And the yearning of the people for
precise and trustworthy explanation
of this engrossing international prob
lem is still further to be satisfied by
the presentation of Mr.. George Creel
as the Presidents own knight and
doughty champion on the field of
honor. Shall we say that it is evil
dence of desperation on the part of
the Democratic management that Mr..
Creel should thus have been summoned
from his well-earned retirement to
engage in the tourney? Does the
situation require a certain "elabora-
tim" lest the Democracy lose heart?
These questions must answer them
selves as, the campaign progresses.
However, the Democratic National
Committee merits applause for its eff
fortinthe cause of popular education.
1t really should send out its spellbin-
ders in pairs. Senators Gore and
Hitchcock; Senators Reed and former
Chairman Cummings; Senator elect

NO REAL GAMBLING LAW

In the trial of several men charged with gambling, Judge Lockwood held that Arizona's gambling law was not broad enough to cover all classes of gambling, only percentage games coming under it's purview. Under his decision poker and other games where no takeoff is made do not become a public offense under the law. It would appear that the law that was in force some years ago and which was amended by the legislative assem- bly, in 1917 and had referendum fil- ed against it and became a law by the vote of the people, really nullified a part of the old statute relating to games of poker and stud poker, as well as other games of chance, where there was no takeoff. If the supreme court holds the view of Judge Lock- wood the legislature will have to be called upon to further tighten the law against gambling.
 From the action of the purity squad in the framing of gambling laws we take it that they do not care greatly to close all loopholes, prefering to keep something on tap that will in- sure them a steady job of knocking the booze fellows and gamblers.

ARIZONA COTTON
 HELD FOR 60 CTS.

TUCSON, Ariz., Nov 29.-With all the cotton of the Santa Cruz Valley baled and awaiting marketing, the farmers are awaiting advance in pric- es, while buyers are bearing the mar ket. Little has been sold except for emergencies at prices around 50 cents although there have been sales as low as 45 cents. Fifty cents does not pay for the cost of production, it is claim ed.
 The surplus of labor is great as the result of the conclusion of the pick ing. In the valley there is no market for cotton seed. This, however, does not cause any anxiety. Last year meal sold for $70 per ton and seed was shipped south to be milled and the meal sent back.
 The local growers are urging a re' duction to 21a cents for pickers, al though the growers association is in sisting upon cents, since the pick ing now being done is merely scrap ping and pickers cannot earn mucf even at cents.
 The farmers are unit in declaring they will hold their staple indefin ately for 60 cents as minimum.

ARIZONA COTTON EXCHANGED FOR
 TEXTILE BONDS

YUMA, Nov. 25.-Cotton of the southwest has been demonstrated by the Textile Industries Institute of Spartanburg, N. C., as the best in the world for fine fabrics, shirtings, dress goods, sheeting, pillow cases and hos iery, according to c. H. Deal, textile expert, who is here to buy next years supply of Pima cotton from members of the Arizona-American Cotton Growers Association. The cotton is to paid for on the basis of an eX- change of the Textile Institutes bonds bearing seven per cent annually.
 According to MT. Deal, the Insti- ute calls the product character cloth" and by that name the products of the mills will enter the market as a distinctive Pima cotton brand of goods, and so advertised, accord ing to MT. Deal.

JOE PROCHASKA AND

 MARRIED ON DESERT

Where the Storied waters of the Hassayampa and the gray flood of the Gila meet and mingle in single beauty the romance and the moonlight of the desert, Joe V. Prochaska, state game warden, and Miss Mildred Vim bish were married at 6:3O o'clock last Saturday evening. Only few friends of the couple were present at the ceremony, which was performed by the Rev. Mr. Brown of the Baptist church, and which had been announced to friends only through the publica- tion of the marriage license a few days ago.
 Mir. Prochaska, who in addition to his official position, is known as one of the foremost hunters and woods men of the state, wore suit of buck skin, while the bride was attired in khaki. After the ceremony, MT. and Mrs. Prochaska and six guests sat down to a dinner of game, in which duck and desert quail were the chief dishes. The dinner was prepared by one of the deputy state game war. denS.

CUT FEDERAL MINE TAXES

The Mexican government has re- scinded in part the heavy taxes levied by the Carranza government on pro- ducing mines. The congress will meet in January and will pass a law cutting the taxes fifty per cent and simplifying the government order. The past several years mining in our sister republic has been hampered by drastic stamp and income taxes. It is now proposed to pass tax law that will invite mining investments, in stead of driving out foreign mining operators. On the other hand min ing men will find that the days of the cheap mining labor has gone and that hereafter Mexicans will get in meas ure as high wage as the American for the same class of work. This feature will keep many mining investors out of Mexico, but the agriculturist will possibly take on large area of lands that may be brought under cultivation in the low attitudes.

RAILROADS ATTACK
 ORDER DENYING AN
 INCREASE IN RATES

Attacking the order of the corpor- ation commission which denied the railroads application to increase freight and passenger rates, the rail roads have filed a petition with the interstate commission asking that the order be set aside as void. The peti- tion covers 16 printed pages and is accompanied by an order of the cor poration commission.
 According to F. A. Jones, it is more than likely that the corporation com mission will be given the opportunity to defend its order before the first of the year. The Nevada commission denied the increase at practically the same time similar action was taken here and the railroads have taken the case before the l. c. c. which has set the matter for hearing Dec. 1.
 In asking the increase in intrastate rates the railroads have requested the state commissions to allow the cor respondingly higher levels of inter state tariff. Arizona's denial was based on the grounds that the rail roads had not complied with the state law and it is thought that despite the recent ruling of the l. c. C. in the New York case that this might have weight when the Arizona case comes up for argument.
 The first decision rendered by the I. c. c. was in the New York case where it held that the government un, der the transportation act had a right to apply interstate rates to business within the state.
 Many of the states declare this ar encroachment on state rights and the question will be taken up to the Su preme Court of the United States fol final settlement.

Application for land by bands totaling 10000 have been received by Antonio Villareal, Secretary of Agri- culture. They will probably be as- signed to lands in Oaxaca, Tabasco and Campeche, recently the scenes of revolutionary movements.

PHOENIX WILL PAVE STREETS

At the election held last Monday in Phoenix the taxpayers voted the sum of $655, ,OO0 out of a total of $1 100000 bonds for public improvements. Among the measures that would be benefited by the total bond issue is sewers, paving of large part of the city and other necessary improve ments. Some of the bonds lost out, but it is expected that the real meas ures were carried through. Phoenix needs street paving badly and the tax payers stand in their own light when they refuse to carry through the pro- jects mapped out by the present city government.
