WHITE SLAVERS PLEAD
 GUILTY TO CHARGE

In the United States court, at Phoe- nix, Thursday last, Samuel B. Lan- caster and William w. Casey pleaded guilty to the charges of conveying two women, Mrs. Samuel B. Lancast- CT and Mrs. Louise Newman, from Los Angeles to Kingman, and sentence was to be passed on them yesterday. What is to be done with the women has not been indicated by the court.
 Lancaster, whose name is fictitious, has criminal record, as has Casey. The men stole the automobile in which they arrived in Kingman, and the par ty was supposed to be on its way to some eastern point. When they ar rived here they were short of funds and the four occupied the one room at the hotel. Mohave county officers ar rested the quartet and they were bound over on the same charge, con- spiracy to violate the Mann white slave act. The two women also have served sentence in juvenile homes and while rather young appeared to be hardened to a life of crime.-King- man Miner.

BIG EGG YIELD

"From small flock of hens I now get 20 to 25 eggs per day, whereas before giving them Dr. LeGear's Poultry Prescription, only received three or four. Its cost has been re- paid to me over and over." So writes Mrs. J. w. Montgomery, Tunnell Hill, Ga.
 You should increase your yield now, while prices are high, through Dr. LeGear's Poultry Prescription. It is tonic which builds up the hens strength and vitality, and stimulates the producing organs.
 For 28 years Dr. LeGear has been recognized as Americas foremost Ex- pert Poultry Breeder and Veteri- marian. Any time your poultry or stock are ailing, it will pay you to get the proper Dr. LeGear Remedy from your dealer. It must give satisfac- tion, or your dealer will refund your money.

PERRIN ELISA
 COUNTER LAW SUIT

Alleging that his business reputa- tion has suffered and that his credit has been damaged by suit brought against him by the First National bank of Denver, Dr. E. B. Perrin, well-known property owner and resi- dent of Williams, has filed cross complaint against the Denver bank through Morrison & Morrison, his at torneys, asking damages in the amount of $80,O00.
 Dr. Perrin, E. B. Perrin, Jr., Lilo M. Perrin and L. M. Perrin, Jr., were re- gently sued by the First National bank for failure to pay taxes on cer- tain grazing lands on which the bank held mortgage for $110,0O0.
 The terms of this mortgage provid- ed that taxes should be paid before delinquency. Alleging that the first installment of taxes for 1920 had not been paid, the bank filed suit in the district federal court asking for fore closure of the mortgage.
 News of this suit being published broadcast, Dr. Perrin alleges, his rep utation and credit were severely dam aged Offering proof that the taxes in question were paid three days be- fore they were due, he asks the court to award him $S0,000 damages to cov- CT the injury to his business reputa- ton and credit which, he says, were shaken by the nasty action taken by the Denver banking institution, for which, according to the record of tax es paid. there was no legal ground.
 The grazing lands on which the First National bank of Denver holds a mortgage are in Yavapai county, but do not include the well-known Baca grant belonging to the Perrin estate.
 Friends of Dr. Perrin are not sur prised at the retaliatory suit which he has filed against the Denver bank. "The doctor started his fighting ca reer during the Civil war;" they say land although he is now eighty-foui there is still plenty of fight in him The Denver bank had better look to it's bank-roll." ."-Prescott Courier.

STATE ENTITLED TO SEC- OND MEMBER IN CONGRESS

Arizona will in all probability be represented in congress by two repre- sentatives instead of one, when the new apportionment based on the 1920 census is made by congress. This is the opinion of Charles R. Howe, state tax commissioner, who calls attention to the fact that the latest census figures give Arizona population of 333, 200. In discussing the probabilities, Howe said:
 "The present apportionment is one representative to every 211,OOO or major fraction thereof. Under this arrangement Arizona would be enti- tied to two congressman. With every new census it has always been prob lem with congress as to what unit of population should be used, and with every new allotment figure the mem- bership of the lower house has been increased.
 eff the same unit of 2l1 900 is to be used the membership of the house,

 AT WHIPPLE BARRACKS

George Edwards, negro, patient at the public health service hospital at Whipple barracks, Friday, was shot and fatally wounded as he lay in in bed in a ward filled with other sick ex- service men. He died few minutes later. The coroner's jury in the after noon returned a verdict stating Ed wards died as result of wounds in flicted by Thomas Murphy with hom- icidal intent. Murphy, like Edwards, was negro patient. It was brought out at the inquest that Murphy had borrowed razor from Edwards and it had been stolen.

Trip From Hama Made
On Motor Bike, Whole
Distance is Ridden

To see the last night of the Fair T.
A. Hawley of Wailuku rode a motor
bike from Hama to Wailuku Saturday.
1t is said he is the first to ride a
motor cycle the entire distance, others
who have made the trip before having
carried their machines over certain of
the worst portions of the trail.
Last year Hawley missed the Fair.
Saturday morning he made up his
mind he would not miss it this year
and so he started for home at 10 O.
clock Saturday morning. He road a
Harley-Davidson and says he would
not tackle the trip again except on a
lighter machine of the same make. He
reached Wailuku at six o'clock in the
evening.
Hawley said he was told the road
from the upper trail down to Keanae
was macadamized and he had looked
for a good stretch of highway but that
ne found it rough and one of the mos
II ying parts of his journey. From
Eeanae he road over the lower trail
and it took some very careful riding.
Despite the dangers he says he would
rather make the trip on light motor
cycle than horseback, as he knows
bikes better than horses. He regret
ted only that he had no company on
the trip to enjoy he scenery with him.

Fatal Results Follow
Two Accidents During
Period of the Fair

Last Sunday occurred the second ia
tai accident of the fair period when
at Camp l Sujiro Takei accidentally
ran down his friend Masajiro Hiyashi.
The latter was riding a bicycle and
Takei turned 4 corner behind him and,
not seeing him, knocked Hiyashi from
his machine. A coroner's jury We'd
nesday brought in a verdict that the
deceased was accidentally struck by
an automobile driven by Takei.
In the testimony presented to the
coroner's jury in the inquest on the
death of Yomiko Okla it appeared that
the deceased and another girl were
walking along the street and the Okla
girl lodged out in front of Miss
Bradford's car when only about six
feet away. The jury characterized the
fatality as an accident.
Friday morning a Japanese driver
side-swiped a Chinese and threw him
in front of another machine. The Chi
nese was not seriously hurt. The ia
panese was fined $50 for needless driv-
ing.
There has been a report that Por-
tuguese was struck by a car near
Camp l and that the driver extin-
guished his lights and fed. Another
story is to the effect the injured man
in avoiding a machine fell and injured
his head Police authorities say no
bruises were found on the body and
the examining physician is reported
to have said there were evidences the
injured man had been drinking.

Accident
Again Makes Evident
Need of Ambulance

Need of an ambulance was again
called to attention and emphasized
during the Fair" remarked George
Weight, chief sanitary inspector of the
Board of Health Monday. "A soldier
fell from a horse ana sustained a
serious and painful fracture of the
leg He had to be bundled into an
automobile and suffer unnecessarily
to be taken to the hospital"
Mr.. Weight cited another recent
instance when a nurse was brought
to Kahului from Hama and taken to
a hospital in an automobile when real
ly unable to sit up.
I'VE thought at one time not so
very long ago that we We're to have
an ambulance" he continued Miss
Akana presented the need very strong
ly and her efforts seemed about to
bring results. The board of super
visors appeared to see the need and
TO be inclined to act, but we are still
without the ambulance" He then
spoke of the last epidemic of "fiu" and
said then there were cases where
stricken persons who might have had
chance of recovery if they could
have been taken to the hospital in a
closed motor vehicle lost the chance
of recovery from the lack of proper
conveyance. He said a repetition of
the disease or of any other epidemic
would result in the same situation
again and that further there was hard
ly week went by but that an am
bulance cauld be used with good re-
suits several times.
