EARLY Times in
DISCARD Jones
TELLS BREWERS

1t is a far cry from Early Times in
Kentucky to the present day in Ari-
zona, according to letter transmit
ted this week by Attorney General
Wiley E. Jones to the Early Times
Distilling company of Kentucky. The
Kentucky firm recently asked the at
torney general whether the laws Of
Arizona permitted the shipment of
liquor into this state for medicinal
purposes, also how much whisky a
physician could prescribe at one time.
The attorney generals letter, which
is a gem of sarcasm, follows:
Phoenix, Jan. s, 1920.
Early Times Distillery Company,
Early Times, Kentucky:
Gentlemen:
Your letter of December 30th is
just received wherein you inquire if
the laws of Arizona will permit ship
ment of whisky into our state for
medicinal purposes and | hasten to
reply.
Your letter is dated "Early Times"
Kentucky, and l may state that my
parents were born during the "Early
Times of Kentucky, in Hardin coun-
ty, the birthplace or Abraham Lin
coin, and history records the convivi-
alities of those EARLY Times" in Ken
lucky, when medicinal purposes as
applied to whisky covered multitude
of ailments.
My friends, let me assure you that
the joyous hours of those early
Times" fraught with much happiness,
good cheer and comfort, and often
ending dismally, have gone a-glim-
mering." The traffic in whisky 'for
medicinal purposes" and 1 may add
for all other purposes, in Arizona,
was stricken with paralysis" and do
comotor ataxia" Immediately after the
democratic election of 1914 and since
then then the patient seems to he
past all surgery"
You state in your letter: 'We were
wondering if we could ship whisky
into the drug stores of your state for
medicinal purposes only" and l will
advise you to cease your wonder
ing as this matter in Arizona is one
of serious and sober consequence and
is no longer one of the wonders" of
the world. You state further, "also
advise us the quantity physician can
prescribe at one time," and l would
say that I can point to no provision
of our law which forbids physician
to prescribe any quantity from a gill
to a barrel but the disappointment
will be realized when the patient at
tempts to have his prescription filled.
From the foregoing you will realize
that the wound inflicted upon the IL
quor traffic in any form in Arizona in
1914 and by subsequent acts is really
more serious than that described by
Shakespeare's Mercutio when he ex-
claimed, ''It is not so deep as well
nor as wide as barn door, but it is
sufficient" Therefore, he assured
seriously that early Times" of Ari-
zona as to the liquor traffic took its
departure much earlier than the
EARLY Times Of old 'Kaintuck,'" and
the hopefulness expressed in your let
ter must be adjudged to be without
hope. Yours very truly,
WILEY e. JONES,
Attorney General of Arizona.

MERGER OF 0. D.
and ARIZ. COM.
Being DISCUSSED

Boston-Although it was thought in
evitable that the Arizona Commercial
Mining company and the old Domin-
ion company would eventually consol-
idate, the announcement that this
topic was the conversational piece de
resistance at the last directors meet
ing, caused no little interest.
Briefly, it can be stated that the
Arizona Commercial company has SO
outgrown itself that it must have ad-
ditional reduction facilities and the
Old Dominion company having mod
ern milling and smelling plant, it
seems the logical thing to put the
two companies together rather than
have Arizona Commercial build a
whole new surface plant on the pres
ent basis of high prices.
In the few years that Charles S.
Smith has been in control of Arizona
Commercial it has grown from Il
bankrupt prospect to point where it
lis now producing 100000 pounds of
copper a month at a cost fluctuating
between IL and IA cents per pound.
On "a hours notice company can in,
crease production to 100000 pounds
of copper month, having today close
to 100000 tons of 51a per cent copper
ore developed and ready for extrac-
tion. Completion of it's second shaft
in February next will materially aid
in operation and in reducing costs.
1t has gotten to a point, therefore,
where the company must have more
milling and smelling space. The Old
Dominion company, if the merger
|goes through, will make additions to
it's present plant, including construc-
tion Of a reverberatory furnace and
with some slight changes to it's mill,
will then be in position to meet the
Increased demands of it's sister prop
erty, together with it's own require
ments.
Whatever is done, however, in the
way of consolidation and plant en-
largements, no new financing is con-
templated. Old Dominion company
will make some improvements in it's
plant regardless of whether or not
it is merged with Arizona CONNER
|cial, but of course it will not be on
as large scale if the mergegr does
not go through.
The ideal thing for each company
from the standpoint of economy, pro-
|duction and earnings is to have a
combination of facilities. Old Do
minion can easily produce 33,000,-
600 pounds of copper a year, which
with Arizona Commercials capacity
of close to 100000 pounds, would
give total productive capacity for
the merged companies of 50,000,O00
pounds of red metal a year On a
tasis of exchange of two of Arizona
for one of Old Dominion, total cap
ital of the new company would be
429, ,545 shares--or over 100 pounds
of copper for every share of stock,
la conservative financial structure.

ored, red-roOfed villas, dark pine trees
winding walks and crescent of white
sandy beach guarded at either end by
high, rocky bluffs, rising abruptly from
the sea. Before tile war 1t was the
scene of frivolity and fashion, rival
ing Monte Carlo In Its gambling, dane
ing and display. 1t was II favorite
resort with one of England's more
playful kings In his lighter moments
Indeed. its main street is called Rue
EdOuard VII in honor of him.
The war brought sudden change
of mood to Biarritz. Its gambling ca
sinOs and hotels were turned into hos
pItals for wounded French, and later
American soldiers. Grim conveys of
warships passed close to its shores on
their way through the Bay of Biscay.

New York, Feb. 9.-Herbert Hoover
has issued n statement defining his at
titude toward the presidency.
He announced that he is not n can

one is authorized to speak for him po-
litically. If the league of nations Is
he will vote for the party that stands
for the league.
In response to requests that he de-
clare allegiance TO either one or the
other of the great political parties, Mr..
Hoover says he will wait until 1t more
definitely appears what the party man
ayers stand for, and Will exercise
prerogative of American citizenship
and decline To pledge my vote blind
fold
His statement follows:
.In order to answer large number
of questions all ut once, let me empha-
size that have taken II day off from

AS AN American citizen by birth and
of long ancestry, / am naturally deep
ly Interested i'm the present critical
situation My sincere and only polit-
ical desire is that one or both of the
great political parties will appronch
the vital issues which have grown out
of the war and are new, with II clear
purpose looking to the welfare of our
people and that candidates capable of
carrying out this work should be nom
mated.
.If the treaty goes over to the pres-
dental election, then / must vote for

prevention of war, but also that we

could not vote with IL party if it
were dominated by groups who hope
for any form of socialism, whether 1t
be naturalization of industry, or 9th
er destruction of individual Initiative.
Both these extremes, camouflased or
open, are active enough in the country
today. Neither of the nominations
would enable those constructive
economic policies that will get us down
from the unsound economic practices
which of necessity grew out of the war,
nor would they secure the good will to
production in our farmers and workers
or maintain the initiative of our bust
ness men. The issues look forward,
not backward.
81 am not unappreciative of the
many kind things that my friends have
advanced on my behalf. Yet, l hope
they will realize my sincerity in not ty-
ing myself to underlined partisanship.

inform the Senate regarding loans
made by the United States 10 foreign
governments and what interest has
been paid or is due.
Secretary Baker in n communication

the paper shortage and directed all Of
fcers to scrutiniZe closely all requests
for printed matter and take such steps
as may be necessary to eliminate waste
