If only three or four Of the
railway presidents would get It out
Of their heads that now is the time
to get even with the unions. we
could settle this strike In a week. i"
These were the words of a Cabi.
net officer to the writer In tho
midst OF q railroad strike. The
Cabinet officer added that these
railway officials seemed to think
only OF the wrongs they had sui.
fered at labor's hands in the past
and imagine the time was at hand
to get even.
So here, In q way, we have two
examples Of the manner in which
business men destroy business BY
trying In q way to avenge the
grievances in the past.
VENGEANCE vs.. BUSINESS.
Yet. vengeance today has less
place in the business-in the reln-
tions Of capital to labor and labor
to capital-than ever before In the
memory Of living man. Why?
Because every great nation Ii try
ing to reconstruct its business. and
reconstruction and vengeance are
poison to each other.
A wise Frenchman has said that
II one should collect all the wrongs
committed In the name Of any insti-
tution-no matter how good, holy,
and beneficent-one would pile up a
horrible mass Of iniquity.
II the sins committed In the name
Of religion or liberty or charity. or
capital or labor. or finance or any
thing else that goes to make up
civilization. were to be assembled
and catalouged and passed on and
avenged. everything that means
business. comfort. art. and civiliza.
ton, would be obliterated. That is
high flown. Let us bring 1t down
to earth.
Suppose all the offenses of the
western pioneers. all the dishonesty
Of early railroad builders. all the
Sins Of the forty.nipe railroads, and
all the crookedness Of irrigation pro.
moters and mine exploiters were to
be reckoned up today and punished
tomorrow. What would be the re.
suit?

tional tax burdens on the bust
ness world; and let currency and
credit be manipulated any old
way.
But, - I already have stated
In these articles, I do not believe
that the business situation and
future are feolproof.
Frankly, I feel that the most
circumspect aspect all around 10
called for II the quite remark
able opinion which has devel-
oped during the recent months
Is not to Be arrested.
To my mind the very sharp
relapse In stock quotations has
reflected, not merely the daring
operations Of professional stock
market spectators, but the ap-
prehension felt in the most in
fuential circles over what may
befall industry and business. To
Be more specific, I know that
some Of the wealthiest and
longest headed men in the f.
nancial world have been getting
rid Of large quantities Of their
security holdings.
The leading editorial in Sat-
urday's issue of the Railway
Age" had this caption: "One-
half Of years increase in rail-
way stock prices wiped out since
national election"
I have spread before me on
my desk at this moment clip
pings recording the salient hap
penings .of last week in the
money market, in the security
market, in foreign exchange, in
commodity prices, in the wheat
pit, on the cotton exchange, in
the labor world, in Congress,
and elsewhere at home as well
as the principal events abroad.
But, candidly, I cannot mus
ter up any overflowing measure
of enthusiasm over even the
most bullish Of statistics be-
cause I find my mind dwelling
far more on what may happen
than what is happening statis-
tically.
In other words, I'm trying to
look ahead, and, looking ahead,
! cannot but feel that we are
moving towards dangers which
may or>may not be avoided.
The surest way not to avoid
them is for everyone in the fl
nancial and business world to
become grandiloquently and
blindly optimistic.

NONTEZUNA CASTLE APPROPRIATION IS
 LOST IN CONGRESS
CFrom Thursdays DaiIy1

Had the efforts of Congressman
 Carl Hayden met with success. there would have been appropriated by the government $2,0OO for excavations ill Montezuma Castle, according to in formation sent to the Yavapai Coun- ty Chamber of Commerce by the congressman. This item was in cluded along with other appropria- tions for the care and improvement of the national monuments in Ari- zona.
 The committee on appropriations, according to Congressman Hayden, declined to take any action on the bill or to increase the sums regularly for this purpose, be- cause the strictcst economy must be practiccd in carrying out the present policy of retrcnchment. However, Congressman Hayden was successful in having allotted the sum of $175 out of available funds for the improve mcnt of the trail and repair of lad ders He further advised that in the budget for next year, there will be included an item of $27O for the i'm provement of one-half mile of ap- proach road within the monument. Ii this small item goes through, says Congressman Hayden, then it will be possible to provide some ac- commodations for visiting motorists such as camping grounds and other facilities.
 This information IS sent as re- suit of the desire of the chamber of to see some consideration given to Montezuma Castle and it is hoped that in the future, it will be possible to obtain such recognition as this monument justly deserves.

HURST RESIGNS;
 NINTH MAN OUT.
Undersheriff Quits Office He Has Held for Past Year, Lat est to go in Succession of Re signations and Dismissals.
From Thursdays Daily)

Alter serving for over a year, Joe
 Furst yesterday evening resigned as undersheriff of Yavapai county. Furst IS understood to have notified Sheriff
 Dillon a few days ago of his intention to resign his place in the sheriff office. He will now be associated with the law offices of Clark & Clark
 Furst was appointed Undersheriff in the summer of 1921, by the late Sheriff Warren c. Davis, to fill the vacancy caused by the staying of Undershcriff Ed Bowers on July of that year. Prior to that time, he was associated with the county at torney's office, when Neil (. Clark was the county prosecutor.
 Undersheriff Furst is the ninth man to leave the shcriff's office, either by resignation or discharge, since the appointment Of Joe Dillon as sheriff to fill the vacancy caused by the death of Mr. Davis. Deputy Sheriff Grant Carter, who with Jim Cock made up the flying Squad" under Sheriff Davis, was one of the first to be dismissed. William Poul- son, court bailiff, who held a deputy sheriff's commission, was relieved of both these titles. Charles Bradbury, night jailor, was let out. Deputies NJ. s. Hummer of Seligman and (. H. Riebeling of Prescott resigned. Deputies C. D. Ruud of Camp Verde and L. B. Cannon of Congress Juno ton were dismissed. Deputy Charles Sauer Of Jerome was ordered to Prescott, but protested. that he was unable to move his family here and that if it was still insisted that he should, his letter might be considered a resignation. It was so considered. Deputy Fred Hawkins of Clarkdale went. Lastly, Undershcritf Furst resigned.
 Of the "old crowd" in the shcriff's office there now remain but five These are Deputies Tom Thompson of Mayer, w. A. Murray of Ash Fork, John Hudgens of Seligman, George Payne, office deputy of Prescott; and Bert Hoffman, jailor
 There is some speculation as to who will be appointed in Fursts place. Deputy George Payne, among others, has been mentioned unof- ficially as a possible appointcc, Of Sheriff Dillon The name of john Dial, who has twice been defeated as d candidate for sheriff has also been mentioned. Efforts last night to get in touch with Sheriff Dillon were without result

While Prescott folk probably saw a lot of thrillers at the circus, they will have the opportunity of seeing more at the Northern Arizona State fair. This was intimated at fair headquarters yesterday following an informal meeting to talk over specifi- cations and conditions of contracts for special attractions and induce mcnts at the fair.
 Those attending the meeting went to work with a good will, but they soon found themselves embarrassed. Not through any fault of their own. No; they simply found they had so many good things on hand in the way of specialtics and stunts, that they were pretty hard put to it to eliminate the least attractive and re- serve the best for the big crowds who will attend the fair The mat ter was again complicated, it was re- ported, by the fact that there were no worst 10 eliminate-only the mot so attractive" could be thrown out:

TESTIMONY TO BEGIN TODAY;
 ACkER TRIAL

Twelve men went to sleep last night in the jury room under the roof of the court house, and they will awake this morning to begin considering the facts in the case of William E. Acker, accused of the murder of Iver Enge.
 When James Loy, counsel for Acker, said that James s. Merritt, the last talesman to be questioned, was approved by him, the two-day job of selecting a jury to try. the al legged murderer of the Norwegian orchardist, had been completed. Ma teria1 was then in the box from from which the state and defense was later in the afternoon, to select the following F men:
 B. NJ. Wall, c. w. Woodling, Will liam Rcedy, E. NJ. Walker, John Goodwin, George A. Cain, Sam Foran, J. L. Hancock, A. c. Curtis, Luther Bratton, c. E. Parker, J. s. Merritt.
 The adjournment to permit at torneys to strike was taken at 2:20. MT. Loy wanted half an hour and MT Sullivan 45 minutes. Judge Sweeney indicated at the time he ad- journed that it would be too late in the courts opinion, to take any tes- timony after the jury had been quail fled, and that he would dismiss the parties to the action until this morn ing, so as to get fresh start for the day.
 When counsel for the state and de- fense returned to the court room with the lists prepared, Deputy Clerk P. ]. Keohane swore in the F jurors and Judge Sweeney consigned them to the care of the bailiffs to be enter tained at the county's expense over night before embarking upon the consideration of the case
 No unusual questions or replies marked the examination of members of the supplementary panel of jury material. As on the opening day, Monday, Acker sat with MT. Loy, calmly watching proceedings and not indicating by any outward display of emotion that he was more than passingly interested in this part of his trial for life.
 All the jurors freed during the course of the filling of the Acker panel were excused by Judge Sweeney to report this morning in division two, where Judge Lamson will begin the trial of one of the two civil jury cases to come up in that department.

Ranchers in the Oak Creek district are much encouraged with their ex- cellent apple crop this year. The fruit is of high quality, and abund- ant and prices, although not so good as last year, are fair enough to af- ford profit in view of the large crop. A local market of considerable importance is being developed in the towns of Jerome and Clarkdale, large amount of garden produce having been marketed in this fashion by the Oak Creek people With in creased consumption locally, com bined with splendid crops, the valley is taking on look of greater pros perity.

After a man has twice jumped for mark and fallen short, and then goes and buys hotel and sort of settles down and opines that he didn't want to be sheriff anyway. it feels like Johnny Dial feels to be suddenly heaved out from behind the register and hauled into the ante room of the bastille with powers and authority.
 MT. Dial became undersheriff in place of Joe Furst yesterday. He was appointed by Sheriff Dillon. Previous to that the nearest Johnny had got to the sheriff's office was the democratic nomination in 1918 and 1920. At the time he was run ming for office, he lived at Selig- man. At the time he caught up with it, he had become a resident of Prescott.
