GREEN RIBBON SCARES
HOODOO

It's all a joke, this talk of Friday
being unlucky. For many centuries
people have refused to sign contracts
on Friday, fearing that the jinx would
be an unlimited partner and turn
things away. Housewives have been
afraid to try out new recipes on
Friday, for fear the cake would burn,
or the bread would not rise; and wo-
mem have avoided wearing a brand
new dress on a Friday, because they
believed it would cast an evil spell
on the gown.
A great student of superstitions has
discovered that these people were al
wrong. Friday, he comedies. has 8
tendency to be day of bad luck
But if persons wear something greer
on that day. such as emeralds or {
bit of green ribbon, they need not feal
the jinx.
If the mother of Reginald Jones hat
dressed him in green on the day o,
his birth she would have spared hin
much hardship in later life, according
to this student. Reginald, the unfor
tunate hero of "Never Say Quit
started out wrong by being born or
Friday the thirteenth. Since there
was no green to greet him on his
arrival, the jinx greeted him. The
jinx got -he upper hand Immediately,
and Reginald had hard time ever
after. This William Fox comedy is

Supreme Tribunal of State Reverses Decision in
 Jerome Case

PHOENIX, Feb. 2.-Acting on an appeal Of J. G. Crowley, town marshal of Jerome, against James Cannon, Pat Ryan, David Molaro, Paul Aimar, Patrick Sullivan and others, the su- preme court of Arizona today remand ed the case involved in the appeal to the superior court of Yavapai county for such further action as the law provides
 According to the court record, Gan non and the others were arrested by Marshal Crowley on a charge of con- gregating on Jerome streets and ob- structing traffic. They were sen i fenced February 13, 1919, to 25 days confinement in jail, but appealed to the superior court, setting forth that their imprisonment was the result of conspiracy entered into between Marshal Crowley and Police Judge Adams of Jerome with Robert Tally, general manager of the United Verde Copper company, and that they had not been guilty of any offense. The superior court discharged the men and Marshal Crowley's appeal to the state supreme court followed. The higher court. in an opinion written by Chief Justice Cunningham and concurred in by Justices Ross and Baker, holds the superior court erred. In the case of John Doan vs. the board of supervisors of Yuma county
 the supreme court upheld the decision
 of the superior court This was a
 case brought by Doan as a resident and taxpayer against the board of supervisors to restrain the board from issuing the bonds of the county i for the purpose Of funding She out standing or floating indebtedness
 The supreme court held that the
 board had the power to sell the bonds
 without first obtaining the assent oi ! the qualified voters at an election.

Wreck Plane in Landing in Rough Country After

DOUGLAS, AriZ., Feb. 2.-LieuteR- ants Usher and Wolf, aViators, fyfns from Fl Paso to Nogales, Ariz., made a forced landing today near NacoZari, Sonora, 79 smiles south of Douglas They are reported to he held by the municipal authorities of Nacozari
 Lieutenants Usher and Wolf both are members of the Twelfth aero squadron, stationed at Fort Bliss, exas. Information reaching here late today from NacoZari was very vague as to whether the flight which result ed in their forced landing had begun yesterday or today. although the pre- sumption is that they left Fort Bliss this morning.
 Mistake Railway.
 The men were en route to Nogales, Ariz., and it is reported they mistook the Nacozari railroad leading south from here for the railroad leading south from Fairbank, about 40 miles west of Douglas, to Nogales.
 Upon arriving at a point on the Sherman ranch, approximately So miles south of Dauglas in an air line and 10 miles further by rail and road, the plane had engine trouble and the men were forced to land. In descend ing they were unable to choose land ing place other than a rough field and one plane of their machine is re- ported to have been broken badly.
 Just how the two men reached Ma cozari is not known here, but it. is presumed they rode in a passing au- tomobile. They reached Nacozari this afternoon at 2 o'clock and were at once placed under technical arrest, being taken to the office of Presi- dente Municipal Francisco M. Peraza and detained there. The presidente is said to have lost no time in dis patching a telegram to Adolfo de la Huerta, governor of Sonora, at Her. mosillo, the capital, requesting that he report the occurrence to the cen tral government and forward instruc- tions as to disposition of the Ameri- can officers.
 It is reported also that the two officers were afforded the courtesy of sending a telegram to their com manding officer at Fort Bliss, Texas relating their experiences and ex- plaining the situation in which they found themselves.
 The men, according to reports , reaching here. were well received by Presidente PeraZa, who has treated them with courtesy.
 Nacozari, where the men are de tained. is the seat of the Moctezuma Copper company, subsidiary of the Phelps Dodge corporation, and has an American population of about 200 per sons. This in itself is believed tC be a guarantee of the men being ac corded good treatment.
 Headquarters of the Arizona dis trict has been notified of the occur renee and is Investigating tonight.

WASHINGTON, Feb. ?. - Three months of pickering and an almost unbreakable deadlock on the oil land leasing bill were ended late today through agreement by house and sen ate conferees on the legislation. Sen ator Smoot, Republican, of Utah, chairman of the senate managers, an nounced the conference report would be submitted to the house tomorrow and an effort to obtain immediate con- sideration made. The agreement of the conferees is expected to be ap- proved with little opposition by both the house and senate, thereby com. pleting legislation which has been pending for the last 10 years and which would open up for development approximately 75,000,OO0 acres of pub lie domain in western states. Last session, similar bill was passed but the senate's failure to adopt the con ference report in the jam of legisla- tion at the close of the session pre- vented final enactment.
 Strictly Leasing Measure
 As now proposed the bill affects oil, coal, gas, phosphate. sodium and oil shale lands and is strictly leasing measure, all provisions for outright sale having been eliminated. Under

CLASH AT MONTESANO
 | M. M. TRIAL
Attorney for Defense Meets With Stern Rebuke from
 The Bench

COURT HOUSE, AONTBSANO, Wash, Feb. 2.-Repeated efforts by the state to limit the scope of the venire examinations by the defense brought on torrid passages between counsel today at the trial of five men charged with the murder of Lieut. Warren O. Grimm, a victim Of tht shooting from the Centralia I. W. w. hall during the Armistice day parade. When Special Prosecutor W. H. Abel asked a taIesman if he had read the I. W. W version of Onward Chris tian Soldiers" Attorney George Vanderveer leaped to his feet ex- claiming that "Such unfair state ments might be. expected of lum- Der trust lawyer"
 Counsel knows that he has not ut tered the truth" retorted Abel.
 DO you want me to prove it?" de. manded Vanderveer.
 You can't" countered Abel. prove that the I. ". w. are benevolent the orists."
 Judge John H. Wilson pounded for order and excluded further repartee.
 Today's session, was marked by speed in the selection of jurors. Four veniremen weer passed for cause. Five peremptory challenges. four by the defense and one by the state, were used With total Of 12 chal- lenges remaining. the state will ex- ercise it's third of six on the opening of court tomorrow.
 The defense moved to ouash the ve- hire this afternoon. When it devel- oped that the names of two talesmen who were temporarily excused last week for illness, were still excluded from the clerks jury box. though the men had recovered and reported back to court this morning. Theer was nu argument on the motion which Judge Wilson promptly denied. The names were restored to the box.
 Numerous members of the venire were reported i'll when the names were called today Most of them are suffering from influenza.
 Objections to hypothetical ques tions by the defense relating to so cial and industrial theories met with partial success, Judge Wilson, while overruling the prosecution on severa points, refused to allow the defens' to ask certain general questions. I'm

HOUSE AND. SENATE AGREE ON LEASING BILL TO~THROW OPEN
 52,000,000 ACRES OF PUBLIC
 DOMAIN TO EARLY DEVELOPMENT
Legislation Which Has Been Before Congress- Ten Years Become Law Through Compromise Providing for the Working of Oil and Coal Lands Under Royalties
 To Be Paid to Government

the measure approximately 44,000,000 acres of government coal land alone would be opened for development, as well as about $00D,0O0 acres of oil lands. As agreed on by the conferees the bill specifics only a minimum roy alty, the senate provisions providing maximum royalties having been elim- mated. In the matter of contested claims on oil, thai conferees agreed upon 70 per cent pf the royalty re- ceived on past production going to the reclamation fund, 20 per cent to the states in which the oil was produced and 10.per cent to the government.
 Under another compromise all roy alties derived from oil, gas, coal, phosphate and 'sddium produced in the future will be distributed 5215 per cent to the reclamation fund, 371s per cent to the state and 10 per cent to the government.
 The compromised measure also pro- vides that the tetdl amount of royal ties to be paid shall De determined by competitive bidding or by methods to be prescribed by the secretary of the interior. For oil lands maximum of 32O0 acres may be leased at a mini mum royalty of 1212 per cent. The maximum for coal lands is 256O acres with a minimum royalty of cents per ton. The same acreage is pre- scribed for phospate and sodium, but 5120 acres of oil shale lands can be leased
 The senate remedial provision over which a deadlock developed, and which is designed to permit an adjust ment of differences over claims grow ing out of the development of the naval reserves in California and Wyo- ming, were in part retained. Under compromise, proposed by Represen- tative Sinnott of Oregon, chairman of the house managers, and accepted by the conferees, 3200 acres, the maxi mum allowed under the bill, and made after last October l, would be invali- dated. This modification is designed to prevent land juggling.

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich, Feb. D. An outline of what the government expects to prove against Truman H.

Senator Newberry, VIII reply on behalf of the defense.
 Martin w. Littleton, of counsel Tor the defense, interrupted Dr. Daley few times with objections and at the close of the session, asked the court to order government agents to cease sitting among the defendants and listening to their whispered conVersa- tions." -fs
 Federal Judge Sessions announced that hereafter the front seats would be reserved for defendants and that others would have to find places after the men on trial had selected seats. He would not issue a formal order against the presence of the secret service men.
 Throughout the address MT. Daley stressed the money which the govern ment alleges was spent in violation of the law limiting campaign expenses. Ills said Milton Oakman was hired as manager of the Detroit campaign at an enormous and staggering salary amounting to thousands of dollars"
 He charged that when the campaign started the "Newberry organization" launched into an orgy of spending" and spoke of great heaps and piles of currency" which, he said, were visi- ble at the Detroit and Grand Rapids headquarters.
 "The evidence will show" he shout ed, that this organization spent more money an average 48 hours than the laws of the United States permit for an entire campaign,
 The prosecutor used a big map of Michigan to illustrate the "way the state was parcelled out among the field agents" Attorneys Murfin, Lit tleton and Nichols. of the defense, watched the prosecutors geography lecture closely and occasionally helped him pronounce some of the names.

SAY RAISE II COAL WORKERS
 TAKES PROFIT
Operators Show Figures to Prove Proposed Increase
 Spells Ruin

WASHINGTON, Feb. ?. - Submit. ting statistics on the net earnings for 1919 Of representative bituminous mines producing more than 30 per cent of the total output in the cen tral competitive field. operators told the coal strike settlement commits sion that If the present IA per cent wage increase were applied through out the year 1920 these companies, on basis of their 1919 tonnage, would realize less than 1 per cent net return on the capital investment" Any increase in wages above that amount, they declared, would mean q correspondingly greater deficit below the recognized equitable return of 6 per cent.
 Figures introduced by the operators showed, they said, that if the IA per cent wage increase had applied throughout 1919. the mines embraced in the Pittsburgh coal producers as- sociation, which turned out more than l 22,000.000 tons, or 15 per cent of the total output of the central field. would have faced a deficit of more than $6,000, 900. or 30 cents a ton, on. a basis of 6 per cent return on capites 1 invested
 This condition would have been approximated closely. the commission was told, by operations represented | in the Pitts burgh vein operators as ! sociation and the Central Illinois coal | bureau as shown by 1919 net earn ings. Mines embraced in the south. ern Ohio coal exchange. the Indiana Coal Operators association and in ither large association districts, the |, operators contended, would have nothing left as compensation for in vested capital. Net earnings of the Illinois Coal Operators association not only would be wiped out by de duction of a IA per cent wage increase for the 12 months of 1919. it was said but would fall short nearly S1 ,300,00C of meeting expenses" Earnings oi bituminous mine operation as com pared with manufacturing and other industrial enterprises for the three
