ORIGIN OF ANTIQUES
 UNS0LVED PROBLEM

Only when some tourist stumbles on a relic of forgotten people, or an industrious prospector unearths a memento of some prehistoric race, are we reminded that Arizona a wonder land, rich in the remains of ancient civilizations, richer, perhaps than any other spot on this hemisphere.
 , Some eight years since, while Abe Lockwood and companion. were prospecting in those mountains whose many treasures are not half revealed, the Sierra Anchas, about sixty miles north of Globe, while camped in a canyon abounding in volcanic ash, they dug up a small metal urn or pitcher, about which seveal theories have been evolved.
 The urn is between four and five inches in height, has a very small orifice, with one arm, or handle, and will hold about four fluid ounces. It is covered with carvings and figures, finely drawn, among them a perfect face, beautifully etched.
 A close examination of the material of which this urn is made, shows cop per, lead and silver, as if an unsuc- cessful attempt had been made to use an alloy, leaving the three metals un- blended. The vessel was filled with volcanic ash when found, and dimmed and tarnished from age and long in- terment. It is believed by some to antedate the cliff dwellers, hundreds perhaps thousands of years, and is a puzzle to local archaeologists.
 M. Lockwood has turned this find over to Dr. Wightman, who intends sending it to the Northwestern Uni versity by Dewey Wightman, when he returns in the fall, and from there it will probably find it's way to the Smithsonian Institute-Globe Record

INSPECTOR WEIGHTS
 AND MEASURES HERE

F. R. Dyas, state inspector of weights and measures, who was in Kingman this week making an in spection of the weighing and measur ing apparatus in use in this city, has returned to Phoenix after completing his inspection here and in Oatman.
 While finding the devices in use in good shape, Inspector Dyas stated that, through lack of familiarity with the various provisions of the law, minor violations of the act had come to the notice of the department, which was insisting upon full compliance with the requirements.
 "The law has been on the statute books since 1913", said the state in spector, land should be familiar to those affected by now. Aside from the requirements as to correct ap- paratus, a penalty is provided for selling a smaller weight or quantity of anything than the weight or quan- tity represented. Also it is v,o'a- tion of the law to sell ice at retail ex- cept by actual weight; to sell wood except by the cord or fractional part thereof: to sell bread unless stamped with the correct weight and name of the dealer; to sell milk in bottles eX- cept of certain sizes and with the name of the dealer and size of the bottle blown in side or bottom; to sell goods in containers unless the con tainers be marked with the correct net weight or quantity of the con tents.
 "There are, in fact, number os re- ouirements not dealing with weighing or measuring apparatus, but making for fairness in trade practices. and in order to acquaint both dealer and consumer with these requirements, the various provisions of the law have been compiled in booklet form which may be obtained free of charge upon application to the department"
 The state inspector said he found the dealers only too ready to comply with the law when made acquainted with it's provisions, adding that most of the violations coming to notice were the result of ignorance of the requirements.
 Jack White, state mine inspector also visited Kingman and Oatman.

THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS
 ARE SAVED SHIPPERS BY .
 THE TRAFFIC BUREAUS
(F'rom Douglas Dispatch-May 20,
 1921.)


 1921.)
 Thousands of dollars annually will be saved shippers in the State as result of the efforts of the traffic bureau and State Corporation Com mission to prevent the 259o freight rate increase granted the railroads by the Interstate Commission last Aug ust, it became known yesterday. AL though dispatches from Washington stated that the Interstate Commerce Commission had overruled the Ari- zona commissions refusal to increase intrastate rates, it became known through telegram from Attorney Benton, who represented the state body at the hearing, that ore, flux, milk, cream, sand, rock, gravel and livestock were not included, and the old rates will be in effect within the States boundaries. This will mean an incalculable saving to Arizona shippers, it was pointed out by Geo. E. Buxton, President of the'Southern Arizona Traffic Association. Not only will the shippers benefit from the continued freight rate on these commodities, but they already have saved thousands of dollars because the increased rates were held in abeyance until the final decision, Bux- ton said. Had the local traffic bureau, in connection with the Phoenix bureau, not opposed the freight in- crease, the rates allowed by the In terstate Commerce Commission would have gone into effect August 26, 1920. Their appeal to the State Commission, which upheld the bureaus contention 1 that rates in Arizona were reasonable, delayed placing the new rates in ef- feet. While the majority of other states were paying the 25f6 increase, Arizona shippers were shipping their goods at the old rates while the rail roads carried their appeal to the high CT commission.
 "The doubting-Thomasas, who have often been heard to remark that trlf- fife bureau was a useless organization and that the Corporation Commission I was controlled by the railroads, should take cognizance of this victory, a 1 local merchant said. "In the major ity of states the Corporation Commis- sions made no fight to retain the in trastate rates, and consequently the shippers paid the, 259o increase. figure that the saving made in this enc victory will pay the expenses of a traffic bureau for ten years" .
 The increases which were granted and which take effect on or before July 1, are: 50R on Pullman fares; l25f6 on all freight other than com- modities mentioned above and 2O%o on passenger fares.
 The Interstate Commerce Commis- sion, in granting the railroads an in crease, did not consider the individual states, estimating hat the states which were paying revenues would make up ] the deficit in other states where the 'carriers were operating at loss.

PRODUCTION OF LITH1UM MIN
 ERALS IN 1920.

The production of lithium minerals in 1920 was confined to shipments ot lepidolite from the Stewart mine at Pala, San Diego County, Calf, and spodumene from the Etta and Swan zey mines near Keystone, Pennington County, S. Oak. The lepidolite was used in the manufacture of glass and the spodumene in the manufacture ot various chemicals. The total Quan- tity of these two minerals reported to the United States Geological Survey, Department of the Interior, as used for manufacturing purposes in 1920 was 11,696 short tons, valued at S173, ,OO2; in 1919, 6,2S7 short tons, valued at $115,OOO.

HOME BREWERS USED
$4,000 TONS OF
RAISINS IN 1919

Washington, June 11.-Home
brewers used up more than $4,000
tons of raisins in 1919, W. M. Griffin
president of the California Associa-
ted Raisin Company, estimated to-
day in giving a senate subcommittee
his views on the pending bill to au-
thorize collective bargaining by far
mers. He placed the raisin grape
crop of 1918 at 10000 tons and Of
1919 at $4,000 tons,, the difference
in his judgment representing de-
mand from home brewers. This de-
mand was now increasing, he added
the "hobby" for home brewing ap-
parently having worn itself out to
some extent.

8, 900 TAKE EXAMS
FOR TEACHERS

Columbia, June 10.-Approxi-
mately three thousand school teach
ers stood the teachers examinations
on May 9TH, according to a state
ment made today at.the offices of the
State Board of Examiners for Tea
chers in Columbia. This number is
without parallel, it is stated.
AS soon as the papers submitted
by these teachers can be graded the
results will be made known to the
various county school boards, and
the teachers certificates will be sent
out. r ...
The state board of education will
meet in Columbia within a few
weeks and at that time rules to gov
ern the issuance of teachers certif-
Gates vii be formulated. The board
Of examiners is a new institution,
and it has never yet issued teachers
certificates. Last year one-year per-
mits were issued. The recent teach.
ers examinations will be the basis
for the new certificates, except in
cases where teachers are entitled to
renewal certificates.
J. H. Shealy, of the state board OF
examiners for teachers, stated today
that the beard is hard at work now
grading the papers submitted by the
three thousand teachers.

BIcHAM'S ATTORNEY
SEEKS NEW TRIAL

Florence June ia. L. King at
torney for E. D. Bigham, who is in
the state penitentiary under death
sentence for the murder of his moth
er, brother and sister and the latter's
two adopted children, execution of
sentence having been stayed by an
appeal to the supreme court, today
argued before Judge S. w. G. Shipp
a motion for a new trial for Bigham
on the ground that two of the jurors
had made remarks prior to the trial
which tended to show that they had
made up their minds as to the guilt
of the defendant before they were
sworn in as jurors. Mr.. King also
referred to statement in the Flor
ence Times that the jury had pre-
ceded it's consideration of the case
with the heading of the 18th chapter
of Deuteronomy indicating that the
jury had used this particular pas
sage of the scripture as a guide in
arriving at verdict. Mr.. King con-
tended that by this the jury had un-
dertaken to substitute the Mosaic
law for the law provided in such
cases and that it showed bias and
prejudice against the accused. For

GERMAN FINANCIER
PREDICTS A SECOND
ROME IN AMERICA
SAYS This Country Must Inevitably
And Irresistibly Rule The
Worid-McCormick Says
Trade Must Come From
South.

Chicago, eJune 1.-THE continu-
ed stability of American business
depends on increasing the purchas-
ing power of this country's back
ward markets in Latin-America and
the Orient, Senator Medill McCor-
mick said in written speech to a
convention of Illinois bankers today.
European purchases can no longer
; be regarded as the backbone of Am
ercan foreign commerce, and this
country must look to the market of
the undeveloped south and west
for future trade, said Senator Nc
Coruick.
In touching on European affairs,
Senator Mccormick repeated con-
versation he had had with German
financial leader, who compared the
United States to a second Rome
whose destiny would lead it to
world dominion.
Repetition of Greek Wars.
. Last year at the American en-
bassy in Berlin" Senator McCor-
mick said, zone of the German lead
ers in finance who today is men,
Der of the cabinet said to me we had
witnessed the,reenactment of a very
old drama. We had seen again the
warss of ancient Greece-the dissipa-
ton of wealth and the stricken
civilization of Europe.
'"Now shall we Witness" he said,
"the inevitible and irresistible on
coming of a second Rome, to con-
quer the old civilized states of Eu-
rope, smitten with decay engendered
by rivalries, divisions and hatreds
which they cannot cure. Peace, Ro-
man as lasting peace, will be laid up
on them by the new master of the
world"
"There is nothing further from
the thoughts of the American peo-
ple," I replied nothing more remote
from their hearts than conquest"
"It is not question of your will
to conquer" he said. "An inevitible
and irresistible destiny will carry
you on to dominion whether you will
or no. What matters it whether
your conquest be economic or mill
tary? 1t will control"
