HAD STILL IN OFFICERS YARD

Jose Flores and Frank Bracamonte, both Mexicans, are probably the most brazen men in the profession of mak- ing white mule and their manufactur- ing establishment, which Is one of the most complete ever found in the dis trict, has been closed and its equipment properly installed installed in the booze room of the county jail.
 Deputy John Wright was driving some cattle about 150 yards from his home in Ice House canyon yesterday afternoon when he ran into a smoke stack which came up out of the ground fin the rear of house belonging to Frank Bracamonte. An investigation led the deputy to what appeared to be a small feed shed =s5, when he approached the shed, he got an odor that he followed a few feet to the shed,
 Through a hole in the floor the off cer caught sight of a man sitting a few feet below on some old sacks. Jose Flores lifted his eyes and met the fighting end of sixshooter which re- quested him to come up out of the cellar
 When Flores came out he was placed under arrest and sent to town by the officer, who remained to make further investigation. He went down into the small cellar to find still in full oper- ation and the liquid intoxicant drip ping into a glass container. Full steam was up and the plant was turning out about a quart an hour.-Globe Record

Federal Troops
 Are Ordered Out
(Continued from page D

Judge Bailey, Sheriff Blankenship, President Bishop of the county court. and Prosecuting Attorney Bronson of Mingo county conferred with me at length as to the situation there They were of the opinion that if they could secure 100 new deputy sheriffs that with those and the state troops the situation might be controlled
 Tn the meantime it seems to have been impossible to secure the deputies. Wednesday, night 1 had a wire from Judge Bailey, Mir. Bishop and Attorney Bronson, giving the reason for the failure of the plan mentioned and mak- ing an urgent request for the return of federal troops. As much as regret to again call upon the federal govern ment for aid, have no other alterna- tive. I have accordingly asked Gen eral Reed to send them and am re- questing the president to issue a proclamation putting the county un- der military control allowing the cir cult court. however, to proceed with the trial of offenses heretofore com mltfed.
 Judge Bailey, Prosecuting Attorney Bronson and Mir. Bishop in their wire expressed the opinion that the troops would be able to deal with the situa- ton without putting the county under military control. I have not cincurred in that view, however, for the time for tenporizing is past. Everybody has had fair warning. The local authori- ties have had every opportunity they asked to deal with the situation.

HISTORY OF FAMILY NAMES

Before the year 1000 there were no family names, such as Smith, Johnson and the like says Clifford Howard in Boys life. Tn those olden times per sons had only first names and usually only one name apiece. We see this, for instance, in the Bible characters Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Samuel David. John, Peter, Paul and all the other familiar ones. And the same thing is true of all the famous men of ancient history-Alexander, Cyrus. Hannibal, Socrates, Homer, Nero, etc. Some of them had two names and sometimes three, as Marc Anthony, Julius Ceasar, Pontius Pilate: and there were others who had titles attached to their names. as William the Conqueror, Richard the Lion Hearted, Alfred the Great etc, in order to distinguish them from others of the same names; but these were not family names.
 Tn time, however, there were so many Johns and Richards and Henrys that there was no way of telling them apart, except to say John, the son of John; Richard, the son of William; and so on; and by and by these were short ened to John. Johns son, and Richard, Williams son, which afterward became shortened to the still simpler forms of John Johnson and Richard Williamson, and thereafter all the descendants of those particular families were known as Johnson and Williamson. and in the same way we get our family names of Jackson. Richardson, Jacobson, Allison (Allenson), Robson and a good many others of that kind.
 We see, therefore, that certain of our family names come really from first names by simply adding the word son; and there are others which have come by simply adding the letter S. as for instance, Richards. Matthews Edwards. Daniels and the like. And our familiar friend Jones belong to this class for 1t really is intended to be Johns. but long ago somebody spelled 1t wrong. and ever since it has been l Innes"

 Men in the employ of the electric company do not work for less because they are engaged in public service. The great mills which make wire and the vast plants which turn out electrical equipment do not manufacture this. equipment for less %ecause this equip ment is needed for public service. Costs in keeping up electric service have gone up just like everything else. It is quite clear to any fair-minded man that the electric light company will need more money for this service and that the homes which require this serv- ice are the ones logically to pay this' increase.
 It is unfair and unjust to esS3 the butcher and the baker and the ,}-ocer more for what they sell and to with hold from the electric company, which keeps up it's service, the raise which, in simple justice. it is entitled to have,

Tucson AutomobiIe Thefts Increase

TUCSON-Theft of automobiles from the streets of Tucson almost daily during the past two weeks has brought to bear the concentrated efforts of every man on the police force in an endeavor to bring to justice the gang of thieves who are carrying on this wholesale robbery. Every machine which has been taken recently has been recovered by the police within AS hours, but attempts to find clues to the criminals have failed utterly. Only once have detectives been able to sight the thieves Recently Night Captain Summers, arriving quickl vat the spot from which a machien had been taken, succeeded in drawing in sight of the machine, but because his machine was not fast enough the thieves escaped, though the machine was found near the spot from which it had ben taken early the next day.
 When stolen machines have been re- covered they have in every case been stripped of spare castings and some times of tools, pumps and other equip ment. No additional damage has been done, the machines having been driv- en only a few miles usually They have been found in the outskirts of the e.sy, few times near the university, in most cases in alleys or side streets in quiet sections.-Citizen.

Win the Steel Strike Failed

There was nothing left for the leaders in the
steel strike to do but to accept the situation and
call off the strike. 1t had been a failure, and
they could not get away from the facts.
The steel strike failed because no sufficient
Justification for it could be shown. 1t was called
against the advice of Mr. Gompers and other
conservative leaders of organized labor who
fdresaw what happened The men were ordered
to quit work not because of definite grievances
based on industrial injustice in the steel mills
but in furtherance of the attempt of certain
leaders to compel recognition of the union.
From the start it was evident that their plans
were destined to mscarry. Among the steel
workers sentiment in favor of forcing shut
down was not general.
If Judge Gary had ordered lockout in the
Steel Trust mills he would have been beaten
for the same reason that the organizers of the
steel strike were beaten. They had raised a
false issue and chosen the wrong conditions for
calling the strike. When conciliation was pro-
posed they proved their hostility to any post
ponement and houted President Wilson's ap-
peal that the strike be not called before the
meeting of the Industrial conference in WASH
ingtcN. They were deaf to reason in their de-
termination to hasten an open conflict between
employers and steel workers in every part of
the United States, and whatever claim they
might have had in other circumstances upon
poular sympathy they forfeited by their wrong
headed obstinacy.
Under such leaders labor loses advantages
slowly gained by judcious and temperate man
axement-New York World.

Common Sense and the Compromise.

A Bipartisan" conference of senators has
been held, looking to the possibility of agree
ment that will permit ratification Of the treaty.
No more encouraging news has come out from
Washington in months. Facing great ma
tonal campaign, neither republicans nor demo-
Gratis are desirous of going before the people,
charged with responsibility for further delay
ing the declaration of peace. The challenge of
the president was promptly accepted by Mr..
Lodge, but, as the NSw York World phrased
it, both were talking nonsense The issues to
be settled at the polls this year are purely
American, and concern cur domestic life almost
exclusively. Therefore it is only reasonable
that all sides would prefer to have the treaty
out of the way. Approach is already made to
the compromise and the exercise of little
common sense will find the middle ground on
which settlement may rest. 1t has long been
apparent that neither Mr.. Lodge nor Mr. Will
son could get exactly what he asks, but the in
terests of the country may be served by each
of these taking little less than his demands
and giving to the people real start.

Mon Wants q MerrQ Life

Professor Widars directions in his recent
address before the French Academy of Sciences,
to guide those whose ambition is to attain
longevity are too humdrum to win him fame.
He offered mankind no serum guaranteed to
work miracles, no pellets warranted to repair
over night the injuries done by years Of reck-
les living. "Sobriety, light diet considerable
muscular exercise" his sensible formula, ex-
pressed in one way or another, has been before
mankind's eyes ever since the wish for years
took its place among human aspirations.
A merry life and long one; that is what
men want. Most of them will sacrifice length
for merriment and think the bargain good one
until the final mundane accounting is at hand
When the price of brevity must be paid the
debtor is filled with regret, not for loss of years
but for loss of pleasure
Mandkind does not want sane counsel, the
wisdom of which has been proved by experience.
It looks for magic potion which without in
conveniencing the patient will sustain him in
his designations, mild or violent and keep him
in shape to repeat his excesses. The man who
tells his fellows to be sensible will not be ac-
claimed as is the charlatan who encourages
their folly.-New York Sun.

Plumb BeQl,,s at the Ton

Possibly in operation Glenn E. Plumb's uni
versal plan for the reorganization OF industry
under the joint ownership and management OF
public capital and labor would be great sue
cess. All history shows it is folly to prophesy
the failure Of an experiment never tried.
But if the theory in which Mr.. Plumb has so
much faith is workable it might be prudent to
test it on small scale. Instead of this his pur-
pose is to begin with the railroads, after which
he would take over all other corporate enter
prises in manufacturing, merchandising, public
utilities and natural resources. It is conceiv-
able that the tripartite control of the railroads
might not result according to specifications in
which case unexampled disaster would follow
closely upon the heels of novelty.
Practically everything worth while in polit-
ical and industrial life is growth and not a
creation. Before there could be a United States
the lessons of local self-governmenf had to be
painfully learned. Many vast businesses, so
powerful now that they sometimes confront
government almost as equals, were brought to
their present wonderful development by men
who started at the bottom. 1t is easy to re-
construct all these things on paper, but that
is not the way they were built up
There are people who see in Mr.. Plumb the
prophet of better day. when justice will be .
matter of course, when private greed will no
longer defy the public welfare and when unre-
Quilted toll will be unknown, but even they will
admit on reflection that with a scheme 50 far
reaching it is not wise to begin at the top.

Kentucky's Liquid Liability.

With nationwide prohibition fairly launched
as the governing principle in dealing with the
liquor traffic, one Of the perplexities of the
main problem comes to the front. In Kentucky
is stored whisky valued at $400,000,000 This
represents property, condemned in America, but
of value in other parts Of the world. Its owners
have delayed in the face of warning, hoping
against hope that they would be allowed to
realize on it at home. Now it is mpounded,
and apparently doomed. Stored under govern
ment lock and key, it is safe for the moment.
Should it be detected in wandering around the
country, it will be destroyed without ruth. That
such disposition may be made of it in bulk is
not beyond the range of possibilities. Prohibi-
tionists may logically argue that if it repre-
sents evil here, it is no less harmful abroad, and
that we as nation hav. no more right to ex-
port one kind Of danger than another The
question of property rights was not given any
weight in the establishment Of the dry regime,
and probably will have no more in the settle
ment of Kentucky's liquid liability

League of Nations Convened.

A great and solemn conclave convened in
Paris yesterday, when for the first time the
council of the League of Nations assembled
1t is to this body questions of international i'm
port are to be referred for consideration and
adjustment short of war if possible Phloso-
pliers and poets have dreamed of this, and
statesmen have looked forward to it, yet even
now it is approached with such scepticism as
led one of the great men assembled at the open
ing session to warn the others that in this dis
trust lies the greatest danger for the league.
This fact may prove the salvation of the in
stitution. Appreciation of the unwillingness of
the world to accept it at its face value should
have the effect OF restraining the council in all
its actions, to the end that no indefensible or
unworthy decision will come from it. Firmness
and even boldness may be expected, as properly
becomes such an agency of high expression of
the concerted will of great peoples, but this
must have in it due regard for the attitude OF
other peoples as great and as tenacious in their
pride and as fixed in their sense of right. There
fore we may look with confidence for conserva-
tive moves only from the league.
That it is for the moment made up of the
survivors of the Triple Entente and the British
Japanese alliance is fortutous rather than sig
nihcant. These came out victorious in the war,
and it falls out naturally they should be found
in the great council that is to deal with the
problems of peace as they affect them in their
relations to the world. Whether the league ever
comes to be other than glorihed alliance be-
tween the nations whose policies and interests
bound them before the war; or whether it some
day approxir1ates the DESTINY prophesied for il
days.
The United States may yet take place in
the council. When it does, it will be on the
basis of absolute security for our independence
as to home affairs More is not asked, less will
not be accepted.

SAVING THE WORLD.

Some signs are noted of returning sanity,
the re-establishment of the balance that is
needed to make democracy safe for the world.
A sincere approach to the solution of the
easiest of world-problem:, that Of excessive
greatest indication that more sober counsel is
being heard. This does not contemplate or
necessarily involve any sudden wrench or vio-
lent dislocation Of business. It only requires
the moderate, steady reduction OF pressure on
certain of the boilers, to 4 point where they
will show the same register on the gauge as do
those that should be coupled with them but are
temporarily cut of.
The pleas made for starving Europeans are
part Of this; they are no longer based on our
mission to reform the world to adjust its ways
to our ways, and to fetch the backward peoples
up alongside of US. Now we are asked to aid
only because the women and children, the moth
ers and babes are starving, and look to generous
America to help. They will try to solve their
problems of readjustment in some way, but ask
us for food they can obtain nowhere else. And
Americans, coming down from their exalted
height of world crusaders, and standing again
on common level with laundering humanity,
will hear this appeal.
Solemn warning is given at home by men
of affairs, whose foresight is clear and en-
bracing that the future is secure only if wis
dom prevails. On each individual citizen rests
full share of responsibility, and under our in
stitutions each citizen is expected to aid to
the utmost of his power and ability in restoring
healthy conditions of life. The year that fol-
lowed the armistice did not bring the results
expected. A change in course is imperative.
Service and not self is demanded now, just
as it was when the country went into the war.
The citizen who is not willing to contribute his
bit to the end that the affairs of the nation be
again stabilized is standing in his own light
