DECLINES TO BOW
 TO ACTTATORS

Flying the Stars and Stripes at its masthead, with banner line of wood type setting forth its declaration of independence" the Coconino Sun, pub lished at Flagstaff, Ariz., has arrived a little late, but full of news and ginger. Owing to the printers strike which went into effect on the 1st inst, the Sun appears all hand-set.
 In double-column editorial state ment, wherein it set forth it's views regarding the strike, the Sun says:
 "Our printers walked out Saturday with expressions of regret, acknow- ledging that they did not believe in the justice of the demand made upon them by their union, for they were and had been getting all they had asked for in the way of wages and hours, and were, in effect, striking for what they already had"
 The editor of the Sun explains that the union demanded that forty-four- hour week be recognized and that the present scale be not changed. This would give the printers forty-eight- hour weeks pay for forty -four-hour weeks work, which, the employing printers say, is the equivalent of 25 per cent increase-in the cost of print ing at time when all prices are being revised downward.
 According to the Sun editor, his printers would agree to accept the same rate of pay and work eight hours and arrange the overtime so that it would amount to exactly what they were>getting, but that he would have to sign an agreement, which committed him to the theory that a forty-fourhour week was the right and proper thing.
 Men Satisfied.
 This was the only way they could get around the arbitary demand of the national union," says the editor. "They were satisfied as to existing conditions and treatment received, but the national union had to be sat isfed. We denied the right of the national union or anyone else to tell us what church to belong to or what idols to worship.
 The time has come when the des- picable yap, the soap-box howler and the whole bunch of nonproducers who live like cooties off the work of men who are honestly laboring should be given the treatment they deserve. They feast on trouble, and would act ually have to work if they could not live off the assessments made upon men who think they are doing the right thing by blindly following the blatant lead of these despoilers.' .'- Los Angeles Sunday Times.

LIVE FISH ARE DUG LIKE POTATOES FROM
 GROUND IN FLORIDA

Izaak Walton would scarcely be- lieve his eyes if he were to walk through the country near here and en- counter negroes digging live fish from the ground as though thew were po- tatoes.
 A certain variety of mud fish found in nearly every part of Florida is re- sponsible for this curious sight.
 This queer member of the fnny tribe inhabits streams or ponds which have mud banks or bottoms, is black and weighs up to five and six pounds.
 When the water in the pond evapor- ates the fish burrow in the mud and live until the rainy season comes. The negroes locate them by exploring the mud with their feet.

THOUSANDS VISIT WHIPPLE BARRACKS.

Thousands of persons visited Whip pie barracks here in observance of National Hospital Day" The day rad been proclaimed holiday in Prescott. Flowers enough to permit large number to be placed in every ward, were sent by Phoenix Women's club and by several hundred women living in southern California.
 The events were partly in celebra- tion of the recently announced inten- tion of the government to double the capacity of the hospital, already said to be the second largest public health service hospital in the United States. Twelve new buildings will be erected, making the entire institution capable of caring for 1900 patients.
 Whipple barracks, devoted exclu- sively to the treatment of tubercular cases, now has about $50 patients.

STACKER LISTS NOT CAUSE
 FOR LEGAL ACTIONS.

Neither the government nor any in- dividual officer of the government could be held liable at law for the erroneous inclusion of names in the stacker draft lists prepared by the war department for publication. At totney General Daughteity holds in an opinion sent today to Secretary Weeks. MT. Daughterty said the op- inion did not pass on the question of the liability of newspapers for pub- fishing such names, but that he did not believe they could be held liable, since the lists would be official ones, previously published by the govern ment.
 The draft stacker lists have been prepared for some weeks, but their publication has been held up pending receipt of Mir. Daughtelty's opinion by Secretary Weeks.

KANSAS CITY WEEKLY
 LIVE STOCK LETTER

Kansas City Stock Yards, May A.
 Live stock markets started the week with lower prices. Fat cattle declined 15 to 25 cents, hogs were weak to 10 cents lower, and sheep and lambs down 9 to 90 cents. Last week clip ped sheep and lambs reached the high est price level of the year, and break this week was anticipated. The cattle market rallied late last week, and the break today left quotations about the same as week ago.
 Beef Cattle
 All markets reported liberal sup plies of cattle and lower prices today. Chicago had the largest supply in several weeks past. Here trading opened slowly but as soon as a 15 to % cent decline was established, the movement over the scales became fair ly free. Strictly full fed steers were rather scarce, and the half fat kind and those showing grass sap are in- creasing. The better grades were no more than 15 cents lower. Cows and heifers were offered freely and de- clined 10 to 15 cents. Veal calves were weak and bulls 25 cents lower
 St0ckers and Feeders
 Thin cattle were in liberal supply at 25 cents lower prices. A good many south and west range steers were in- cluded in the run. The liberal offer ings and lower prices offered a good time to buy.
 Sheep and Lambs
 Prices for sheep ana lambs broke 50 to 75 cents today owing to a liber- al receipts. In some cases prices in Chicago were off $1.00. Spring lambs here were quoted up to $12.25 and clipped Texas wethers up to $6.00. Some clipped Colorado fed lambs sold up to $10.25.
