IF STATE IS TO BE ROBBED
 GIVE US OUR SHARE"
Says the Douglas Dispatch:

Says the Douglas Dispatch:
 We have been inclined to oppose the $975,O00 omnibus road bll not so much because of opposition to any new highway construction at this time est of intelligent economy new prof ects should be undertaken thought fully and judiciously-as because it seems that Cochise would not get what we thought this county is enti- tied to under the bill. We took the position, and stick to it, that simply because Cochise has built more roads than other counties is no reason for discrimination against this county in the event of new state appropriations.
 Now, after it seemed that the om- nibus bill either would be defeated or would be substantially reduced, pro- ponents of the measure in the legis- lature appear more hopeful of it's pas sage as originally designed-that is, carrying $975,000. It has occurred to some of the road boosters hereabouts that if the legislature has made up its mind to appropriate anything like S975,000 for road building, it might go at least a little stronger and add something worth while for Cochise- we are as much entitled to it as any body else. Some have gone so far as to suggest an additional $!G1,UUU for the road from Light to the summit of the Chiricahuas.
 As business Proposition, it seems to us that Cochise, if the omnibus bill is going to be put over, should insist on a fair share of the proposed fund.-
 The above is very fair illustra- tion of the state road problem all over the state, though few have been hon est enough to make plain statement of the fact and tell the world that they want theirs while the getting is good"

MARRIED MAN ELOPES
 WITH 13-YEAR-OLD GIRL

t has been reported at the sheriff's office in Yuma, that Ester Flores, of Somerton, a thirteen-year-old girl, ran away from home Thursday after noon with Juan Martinez, married man. Martinez is about thirty years of age, and left family at Gads- den when he ran away with the young girl Martinez is smooth shaven, light complexion, about five feet four or five inches high and rather heavy set. The girl'when she left home was wearing a purple sweater, wore high black shoes and did not have a hat. It seems that running away from home runs in the Flores family, for it was not more than two months ago when the father of Ester Flores ran away with another woman, and left his family in Somerton:

CATTLE RUSTLINC NOT
 A PROFITABLE TRADE

Apparently all preparations had been made for a profitable beef ped, ding expedition when Deputy jShe,'- ifs John Munds and Charley Sauer, l. L. Hart and M. O. Dumas swoopod down upon the Moreno ranch, on uo- per Oak creek. As a result of their investigations, Francisco and Desidero Moreno are in the county jail at Pres colt, charged with stealing and butch ering cattle. A third brother, Dels rio Moreno, is in the custody of the colln- ty probation officer, as he is a minor.
 The Morenos were evidently not un- aware of what was about to happ ,n when Munds and his companions ar rived. There was every reason to be- lieve that they had had some warming and had made some preparations. The father of the Moreno boys, who lives on the Verde river, above Cottonwood, and was known to have been at his own place that morning, was on hand. His horse had been wet but was dry by the time the investigators arrived, indicating that the elder Moreno had made quick trip.
 CarcasseS of two beeveS, prepared for peddling, were found on the ranch. Two hides, buried or feet deep under stable manure, were uncov- cred. One bore 10 brand at all but the other carried the figure Two Bar brand of Major w. w. Midgley.
 The three Moreno boys were given preliminary examination before Jus tice D. L. Robinson at Clemenceau. Francisco and Desiderio were held in the sum of S1,000 each, which they have not yet furnished, and the youngster .Delario, was delivered to the probation officer.-Jerome News.

HAYDEN TO VOTE
 FOR TARIFF BILL

Intention of Representative Carl Hayden, of Arizona, to vote for the Fordney emergency tariff bill was ex- pressed in copies received of a speech by the Arizona congressman before the committee of the whole, in which he said: "I shall vote for this bil be- cause of a sincere desire to do any thing and everything possible in the present emergency for the immedi- ate relief of the cotton growers and stock men of Arizona. There is abso- lutely no market for long staple Pima cotton which sold last year at an av- craze price of 93 cents a pound. It is needless to say that the condition of those who produced this cotton is desperate. The sheep raisers have also suffered acutely on account of the slump in values of both wool and mutton"

ESTIMATE WAR COST
 AT $348, ,000, ,0O0, 900

Total costs of the World war were declared to be more than $348,0 ,000,- 000,000 by Dr. R. P Strong, professor of tropical medicine at the Harvard Medical school, in a lecture at Balti- more. Md.
 This total, he said, includes esti- mates of the direct cost of the war, amounting to $1S6,000, ,000, ,000; the in- direct costs, aggregating SS4 ,000,- 1000, and the cost of lives lost, es- timated at $78,000, 100000.
 The actual potential loss of life due to the war was placed at 43,000,0 lives. The great majority of those who died, he said, were males between 22 and A years, and as a result the women of France in this age group far outnumbered the men.
 It will take France seventy years to recover the loss in population, he declared.

Lacking about S5,00O in making $l00,000 for the January fees of the secretary of the state for motor ve- hicle licenses, Secretary Hall has turned over to Raymond Earhart, state treasurer, $15,000, the last check of the first months license sale for 1921. The $95,000 will be placed in the state road general fund and since it will be applied on registered warrants it will not relieve the pres ent financial condition of the state highway department.

Stockmen and the district forester's office at Albuquerque have agreed that there should be an appraisal of grazing lands as to range value and grazing fees charged according to the value of the land rather tkan by charging so much per head for ami mals.
 The Tucson Citizen, in an article on the omnibus road bill, says there is some undue propaganda going on over the facts in the case; that the over head expense eats up 20%o of the money spent and the government only matches the state funds with so cents for each s1 the state puts up. It further states that there is now road funds amounting to over S2,395 900 available for the two years exclusive of bond issues and by adding this the total would be near s15,000,000 for roads; not one dollar of the federal aid would be lost if the proposed bur- den of S975,000 was not appropriated.
 Judge Landis will be impeached if Congressman Wiley has his way with congress. He charges that Landis is getting too much money from the baseball magnates. Senator Dial, of South Carolina, also wants his scalp for turning loose a clerk in one of Dial's banks who had embedded s90,- GOO. Judge Landis said that the clerk was more sinned against than shining because he was being paid only S9O per month for handling great sums of money; salary insufficient upon which to live and support his little brothers and sisters. While it may not have been pure unadulterated law, many think Landis showed mighty good judgment in letting the young man off on his own recognizance.
