one way for the individual citizen tc
punish the sugar specnlator, and thai

HEADQUARTERS FIT. HUACHUCA,
 ARIZONA.

June ,. 1920. The Editor, The Tombstone Epitaph. Tombstone, Arizona. Dear Sir:
 It has come to my attention q have only recently taken command here) that enlisted men of Fort Hua- chuca are given credit by merchants in nearby towns.
 Perhaps your readers may be in terested in knowing that there is no legal way such debts can be collect ed, unless they are secured in some way by civilian endorsees or by chat tai mortgages. The pay of enlisted men or officers cannot be garnisheed. I, is not the policy of the War De- partment to assist civilians in collec- ting debts contracted by persons in the public service beyond admonish- ing the debtors that failure to pay just debts nigh: be made grounds for discharge.
 Personally, l am not in the least interested in assisting in the collec- ton of private debts against mem bers of my command. l shall take steps to discipline officers or men who bring the Army into discredit by refusing to pay just debts, but beyond that I cannot go.
 Very truly yours.
 F. C. MARSHALL,
 Colonel, 10th Cavalry,
 Commanding.

BooTLEGcERS SELL
 WATER FOR TEQuiLA
 IN NoGALEs, ARlZcNA

MORALES, Ariz.. June s.-Bootles tequila sold in Nogales, Ariz, is termed by the trade as "Sonora wa ter" When a man buys quart of tequilla that is what he is supposed to get by name.
 Enterprising bootleggers are talk ing advantage of the name to sell actual Sonora water in bottles and labeled tequilla to buyers on this side of the line at 3S the quar-.
 Complaints to this effect have been frequently registered with police headquarters of late by buyers on this side of the line who consider they are swindled when they buy "Sonora Water" and then get wha, they buy.
 It goes without saying that the man who buys bootleg stuff has no 1ecourse if the seller fails to deliver the goods expected. Purchasers of bootleg goods are reminded of the ancient motto of the Romans:
 'Lef the buyer beware!"
