Jim's sake 1 glanced at my wrist
watch. 1t was after five o'clock.
| He probably had had his tea by
now. I'd missed that pleasurable

hundred dollars had robbed me of
my tete-a-tete with Jim. The
knowledge did not tend to make
me feel any less lenient towards
THAT little mink.
1t was twenty minutes after FIVE
when 1 got home. Jim was asleep,
his mother said. She looked at me
rather reproachfully, as though
she were condemning me for break

her son.

Morning brought a scribbled note
from Alice.
Its wording and general trend
were typical of that little lady. She
was sick to death of the country
so she thought she'd have a day or
two in town among her friends.
Besides. her nerves had sustained
such an appalling shock over the
recent happenings in the country

MEXICAN SLACKERS GETTING f
 LIVELY RECEPTION

United States Marshal John P. Dil- lon landed in the county jail at Doug las, a bunch of eight federal offend- CTS from Tucson, the crimes being as follows: Five Mexicans convicted as slackers, one white slayer and two il- licit distillers. The Mexicans are to serve one year each in jail, with a fine imposed, and the others for lesser terms.
 Another big bunch of slackers will be brought here later. This element is being gathered in at lively rate these days. Marshal Dillon stated that during conscription it was known sev- eral hundred Mexicans in scattered mining. camps and towns of the south ern part of the state cunningly evad- ed military duty by dropping across the boundary line into Sonora, and all are beginning to filter back to get the high wages of American mining camps and in other pursuits of em- ployment They are being vigorously rounded up and the Tucson judicial mill has started to grind them out and get them in jail as soon as possible.
 The booze offenders were doing a thrifty business in their moonshine methods.

NO WOBBLIES NEED
 APPLY FOR CITIZENSHIP

Admission by James Patrick O'Mal- ley, an admitted 1. w. w. organizer and applicant for citizenship papers, that he favored squeezing out the employer class" by reduction of hours and increase in wages, drew from Ex- aminer Eldredge of the bureau of nat uralization denunciation of radical ism at Prescott.
 O'Malley said he saw nothing in the I. w. w. creed inconsistent with the constitution of the United States.
 "By their own declaration in their literature" Examiner Eldredge dec clared, "the l. w. w. respect neither right nor wrong, nor flag, nor coun- try"
 Charles Reno, one of O'Malley's witnesses, and also member of the l. w. w. by his own admission on the stand, declared each of the nations should be governing, but that all the workers of the world should be un- flied in purpose, so that should strike be declared in one shop every toiler would have to lay down his tools.
 O'Malley's petition was dismissed on the ground of incompetency of wit nesses. The examiner said he was sorry the matter could not have been tried on it's merits. He read extracts from numerous publications bearing what purported to be the l. w. w.. seal.

THE FARMS AND THE RANGES

should be widened instead of the mum 'beT of sheep moving over them re- stricted, declare the sheep men. They claim that the policy of the forest ser vice, which is to attempt a correction of conditions by restriction rather than provision for all the sheep in Arizona, threatens to cost the sheen industry hundreds of thousands of dollars in this state.
 If sheep are prevented from coming south to avoid the cold of the winter and must remain M the north during the period of snow, thousands would die of hunger and cold, and in time the industry would be reduced in Arizona to a fraction of it's present import. ance. Owners of sheep claim that this threatened condition is one they are actually facing and that it is not to be considered merely as a theory.
 Few of the ranges, used by sheep men in the lower attitudes of Arizona are of value for the grazing of any other class of stock. Water is usual ly too scarce for cattle or horses, and the range in the summer is dry and valueless for grazing purposes. Cat tie owners seldom attempt to make use of it. Unless the. sheep can be transported to these large areas, the winter grass would be lost.
 Practically all of the range in the north that might be used to support sheep in the winter is now devoted to the cattle industry. Large areas are suitable to grazing sheep in the sum- mer, but in the winter they must be moved and to do this outlets must be furnished by the forestry service.
 Several prominent residents of Phoenix have within the past few days expressed themselves as favor ing an investigation of the present rules and regulations governing the forest reserves, with particular refer, ence to the movement of sheep across the reserves.
