LEGION INSISTS ON
PRINTING SLACKERS

Little Rock, May 21.-It is prob
able that the Stacker lists will be
published in Arkansas by the Amer
lean Legion when they become avail
able. There has been some opposi-
ton in certain sections to the pubIica-
ton of these lists because the names
Of some men who were not deserters,
but who were loyal soldiers, may ap-
pear in the lists and an injustice be
done them. The officers of the Legion
have received message from the ma
tional commander in which he takes
the stand that the lists should be pub
lished in order to defend the inno-
cent from unjust charges later. The
message follows:
"That the Stacker list contains
the names of men who honorably serv-
ed their country in the time of Its
greatest peril, only strengthens the
convictions that the lists should be
given the widest publicity. For half
a century after the civil war, thous-
ands of veterans applying for pensions
found to be enormously listed as de-
serters and much embarrassment and
hardship resulted The same situation
will arise unless present lists are
cleared Immediately. Publication is
the only satisfactory means of clear
ing them and the viewpoint of news
papers should be that they are assist
ing the innocent as well as Furnishing
the guilty. Veterans named in the
lists suffer only momentary injustice.
Their acquaintance know they served
and they are cleared for all time of
the disgrace eff deserving their coun-
try. The finest thing the Legion can
do in this matter is to pledge its
whole effort to the speediest vindi-
cation of men whose names appear by
error. In some departments the Le-
gion is checking the lists prior to pub
LEGATION. This is not inconsistent with
our viewpoint if practicable"

LOCAL TITLE GOES
TO STATE NORMAL
TRIUMPH OYER HENDRIX
Teachers Capture Decisive Game,
Seen by Great Crowd-Bat Causes
Hot Argument.

1
Hendrix Normal game Friday, the
final and decisive contest of the three
| game series. State Normal won, 4 to
l. The game was viewed by prob
ably the largest crowd ever assem-
bled in Conway for a diamond clash.
By winning the series, the Normal
scored a baseball triumph over Hen
dirk for the first time since 1908.
i Umpire Bradley's ruling on a bat
used by Charles of Hendrix, held by
the umpire to be in violation Of rules
adopted by the national commission,
started an argument which unfortu-
nately is still being pressed with
more or less fervor. Brannon for
State Normal handled 81 put outs and
incidentally made his second error
this year. Schisler for Hendrix, at
other times reliable fielder, bobbled
an easy catch and permitted two
Normal runners to cross the pan in
the eighth Tanner for Normal pulled
"come back" stuff after his defeat
Wednesday. Melton had exactly the
reverse in his diamond fortunes. On
all sides, it is admitted that the close
of the series is due and proper cause
for relief
After the close of the game, the
student body of the State Normal
which attended the game en- masse,
staged a victory celebration on the
down town streets and then marched
to the Normal. The outcome of the
series placed the Normal as undis-
puted city champions, but has no
bearing on the Normal's unquestioned
! claim for supremacy among Arkansas
colleges, as Ouachita had already
eliminated Hendrix. However, Coach
Dan Estes of the Teachers is still
ready to pit his men against all com
ers for the state title. This years
sensational success by the Teachers
increases the reputation which Estes
has made as a skilled handler of ath-
letic talent and establishes him as the
miracle man" so far as Arkansas ath-
letics are concerned.
The Normal was given its first run
in the first inning, when Mann and
Newton collided attempting to field
Hammers fly. Weatherly lined tc
Moore at third, who attempted tc
double Hammer at first, but threw
wild, Hammer taking second. Williams
then allowed Allison's grounder to roll
between his leps, Hammer scoring from
| second. A couple of walks by Melton
in the SIXTH before he was relieved by
Newton, coupled with a wild throw to
the plate by Whaley, Melted the Nor
NAL second score. The last two runs
were also donations. Newton, who at
times appeared to be the entire Hen
dirk team, allowed a couple of sin
giles. Brannan hit to deep center
field, but Schisler allowed the ball to
bounce out of his glove, Lynch scor-
ing. A moment later Allison scored
on a passed ball by Charles. The
Bulldogs made their score in the
Sixth when Nelson worked Tanner for
a walk, was sacrificed to second and
advanced to third on Whaley's scratch
hit. Newton's single to left scored
! Nelson.
The Bulldogs threatened to score
in the fifth, when they had runners
on second and third, with one out
At this point, however, Estes chal-
lenged the bat used by Charles and
Bradley ruled him out for attempt
ing to use a stick not conforming to
rules.

Man Has NQYr0U
 Escape M Flood Waters

den rush of flood waters down the Blue struck the wagon and team while amid stream. The first animal struck by the rush of waters which came like An avalanche, was swept off of it's feet. The second animal became frantic and in the struggle to extri- cate himself was entangled in the harness and thrown on top of the horse which was down. The wagon was overturned and both animals were drowned.
 MT. Await, who was riding on the upper side of the wagon as it over turned, jumped up stream and the force of the flood swept him into the tangled mass of horses, harness and wagon. He had narrow escape for his life but fought himself loose and made his way to the bank bleeding and bruised. His companion, MT
 Bishop, was more fortunate, jump ing down stream and being able to swim ashore.

COURT SAYS MARTIN
 MUST DIE SEPT. 3

Prescott-The date of the execu- ton of Nichan Martin, convicted as the slayer of Arthur DeSteunder, was reset for September g, 1921. by Judge JJ. Sweeney in the superior court this morning following a plea by Martins s counsel that the execution be delayed as long as possible in order that pro- ceedings already started, raising fed eral court questions may be brought to action in the United States court.
 Stephen Abbey and Benton Dick. attorneys of Phoenix, appeared as Martins counsel and MT. Dick made the plea that the execution be set from 30 to 50 days from today in order that they might have time to conclude the proceedings in the United States supreme court. In supporting his arguments he said, the action pending is the last resort and, it being a capital case with no appeal from the judgment pronounced to- day, their efforts would be in vain if the time he requested was not granted He said that no harm could come to the state by the delay and prayed the discretion of the court in | the matter.

AshwstAgainstv Vacation Reso|utionPropoSed ByLOdge.

When Senator Lodge of Massachu- sets, last week introduced a resolu- tion providing for a recess of the United States Senate until July 2S, there was a somewhat lengthy dis cussion of the question and advisabi- lity for taking a recess. The resolr- ticn was voted down by the democrats and enough republicans to constitute majority of the senate. Senator Ashurst opposed the vacation resolu- ton in the following speech deliver ed during the discussion of the reso- lution. He voted against the 7resoil- tion and Senator Cameron, of this state, voted with Lodge and his ad- ministration followers. Here are the remarks of Senator Ashurst:
 MT. President. I recognize, of course, the right of the majority, within pro per limitations, to determine what the period of adjournment shall be and when the adjournment shall be. The burden of Legislation rests upon the majority Under the adjournment plan as proposed it means that the senators from the western states will have no opportunity to go home. The California. Oregon, Washington, Mon tana. Arizona, and other senators from the west would no sooner get home when they would be obliged to return here. That means some of us would have no vacation.
 It seems to me the dates would better be adjusted If it be the pur pose of the senate to have vacation the dates should be adjusted so that all senators may share in the 'vaca tion. 1 do not, however, perceive tho l necessity of a vacation. I have re trained, to use the vernacular, iron throwing monkey wrenches in tht republican machinery.

HOLD UP MEN GET BIG SERVICE GAR

G. w. Jordan, Silver City service car driver, was compelled to walk nine miles, when his car, a new Hudson super-siX, was taken from him by two holdup men Monday night.
 That was unpleasant enough, bu1 previous to being set down Jordan was compelled to drive the car several hours with a gun pointed at him and under orders not to stop for any thing or anybody.
 Two young Americans hired Jordan Monday afternoon to take them to Hurley When they arrived at the turn off into Hurley one of the men drew gun and ordered Jordan to head toward Deming. They took the cutoff this side of Deming and when they arrived at a lonely point between Mutt station and Hatch they told Jor dan they had no further use for him and they Jeff him there on the road [ and drove off in the direction of E Paso.
 Jordan walked back to Mutt, from { which point he notified the authori ties, but SO far no trace of the car ol of the men has been found. although the authorities in all directions have been notified.
 It is believed that the two men hae not been in Silver City more than 2 ] hours and that they came here iron

 Here pending is the soldiers ad- iusted compensation bill that ought to be passed. 1 need not supplement what has already been said with re- spect to the necessity for consider ing the agricultural interests of the country, Consider the stupid action of the federal reserve board last fall | in intimating a defation. Just as the farmer, the cotton raiser, and the 1 livestock grower had some hope that ! he would receive fair price for his produce, the order of deflation came The cniy person deflated under thar intimation was the farmer and the i livestock grower.

May 1921. In the Verde district the United Verde Extension shelter was closed in May and the United Verde smelter was being operated to only part capacity
 The value of the output of gold in Arizona in 1920 was $4,7S6,122, an in. crease from S45G6,4 ,413 in 1919. In 1920 the United Eastern and the rom Feed mines at Oatman produced about 59 percent Uf the total gold of the State. In 1921 these mines are keep ing ID their remarkable records. so that the probable decrease in the out put of gold in Arizona will be due largely to the closing of the copper mines and smeiters. The copper ores of Douglas and Jerome contain con siderable gold ard silver, but those "f Ray, Miami, and Clifton contain lit tie of these metals.
 The output of silver in 1920 was 5.355 1903 ounces, valued at $5,S37 ,2S0, an increase from 5,266 605 ounces, valued at $5,S9S, ,59S, in 1919. A large decrease in the output of silver can be expected in 1921, as most of the silver produced in Arizona comes from copper ore and lead ore, the production of which has been greatly reduced. The price of silver has Gold Silver Connar aad and zinc iy
