DELEGATE SUGGESTS
 INTERNATIONAL PACT
 FOR HALIBUT SEASON

Delegate Sutherland has requested permission to lay before the State Department facts relating to the need for a closed season on halibW fish, ing in the waters of the North Pa cific Ocean. according to advices re- ceived from him by Isadore Gold stein. The Delegate has presented Secretary Hughes with data relative to the matter, including press clip pings describing the present situa- tion arising from the action Of the Seattle fishermen in suspending oper- ations and the suggestion of the To- cal fishermen that a formal season be established from November to February of each winter.
 Delegate Sutherland informed the State Department that to make such a closed season effective, it would have to be concurred in by Canada through an international agreement between the American and Canadian governments. He asked for an op- portunity to meet a representative of the State Department so that he could present the matter in detail as A basis for immediate action. Mir Sutherland also advises that he took the same matter up with Secretary Hoover several months ago. asking him to take some action in the mat ter.

COFFEE

WYE rather startled to read that anti w coffee drinkers are speaking disparagingly about the morning and evening beverage. Why, we ask, should any one object to drinking coffee? Then occurred to us that there are addle headed busybodies who always object to others doing pleasant things.
 America buys one-half the coffee grown in the world and drinks it, greatly to the benefit of its health. Coffee is cheering, inspiring and whole some; therefore, naturally a certain number of folk who hate to other happy must be against .its [-T3so failaty recall that pnfeather doc> tors usually say to their patients " Ou must stop smoking and give up the use of coffee and tea" They do not know usually what else to say.
 Coffee nourishes the brain-thc old French doc tors 15O years ago prescribed it morning tonic saying 1t moved the brain It is gratifying to know that the consumption of coffee has increas ed enormously in America; that every adult in the land uses probably more than twenty pounds of it annually. We feel sorry for the Fritons, where the average IS only pound year, but, of course the English folk make up for this by filling them selves up with tea three or four times every day. We hope'no will pay any attention to these
 ant-coffee drinkers unless 1t be to tell them to mind their business

ARBITRAL PROSPECTS

~ HIEF JUSTICE TAFT, is the man who will O influence the adjustment of that fearfully tangled Russian debt situation He will name the chief of a commission in whose hands western Europe hopes to place the task of working out solution of the problem of the national debt of the empire
 All will be well if Russia, now dominated by debt-repudators, property-destroyers, bourgeosie- murderers and anarchs of political and economic denominations, can be made to act faithfully as a party to the commission.
 The czar's government involved itself in cer- tain heavy debts to other countries. Most if not all these debts went for the prosecution of war against Germany The czars government was overthrown and the overthrowers developed in to the sort of people who do respect the prop erty rights of their own brothers, let alone those of nations they despise as capitalistic. For some years this nilhilist regime has had the upper hand in Russia. It is admitted that of late, the com munists have been compelled to relax something of their propertyhating and turn back to the pri- vate property system. They did not and do not do this from conviction but because circumstances that were always inevitable have forced them to concede the failure of their own rather ragged system, and to reeemploy some parts of the cap italistic system.
 But whether they will validate the Russian debt of the past and give guarantees for the Rus sian debt of the future is another puzzle. Russia now keenly realizes that those accursed capitalists must be consulted for the wherewithal for recon struction and that capital is still in the annoying habit of wanting to know how safe it IS going toi be if 1t ventures out of the coffers.
 The concession of Russia that satisfies the eX- acting demands of France will be safe sign that Russia is headed back to the big corral where na tions foregather under certain understandings about international conduct

DOES THIS PAY?

ACH year before the Frontier Days work
 starts, it is necessary to worry through per iod of depression. Probably 1t can be explained psychologically why it is necessary periodically to entertain the worst fears for the success of the Days before the leaders can make up their minds that there will be support and that the support will be adequate.
 During the time when the community was be- ing entertained by dolefu news about the Front fer prospects, the Journal Miner was the only in stitution that kept its voice pitched to hope, for this paper knows that the doldruns must be pass ed each spring so that the Fourth of July ceebra- tiog will be bigger and better than eycr
 We heartily condemn the attitude of pessimism. for here find an example of how hurtful it may be o.this community. T.
 With probably onIY sourte 6f fnfOrhlatlon, and that the wrong one, the editor 3f the Ari- zona Republican in the kindlest spirit, renIon- strqfes with us and utters the complimentary dec laration that we can't spare them, meaning the four days of wild west sports.
 We learn with regret" he opens, " that the annual Frontier Days festival of Prescott, an an cient institution, is threatened by the apathy of its citizens, whose liberaty in the past has made it possible
 To one reading casually that opening state ment consigns the Frontier Days to the limbo of forgotten or abandoned things. And 1t never would have been written if (a) the propaganda of pcssimism had not been spread around here and (b) if the editor of the Republican had followed more closely the spirit of the Frontier news ap- bearing currently in the Journal Miner
 We are going to hold Frontier Days-as us- ual-it will be bigger and better than ever be- fore. It will draw greater crowds than any pre- vious celebration. And if not then every preced- ent of Prescott's midsummer carnival of cowboy sports will have been broken

CAMERON'S MOVE

TNHE descent of United States Senator Ralph
 4 Cameron on the camp of his supposed en- enics must have been more or less startling to them, if there are any. The feelings of those who have bedcviled the junior senator with threats, at least, of indictment, may be comparable with those of man who is preparing to sue someone, and who finds himself suddenly sued by that man.
 Evidently the senator intends to proceed un- der strict legal rules He has submitted himself to arrest, but found there was no warrant. He of fered himself to a committing magistrate who, without any papers before him, allowed a sort of contingent fee to be paid for bail in case bail is subsequently, desired.
 The move of the senator Is in line with his startling history. He has never been to do the commonplace thing His practice-and one takes 1t, his joyis to do things others do not do or do them in way else thinks of. His whole career is larded with incident ranging from astute political maneuvers to feats of personal or physical fortitude. In other words, he is the sheriff who carried the law to the outlaws of Co., Conino county and the candidate who hurled him self through several hundred miles of Arizona air to encamp himself in the backyard of the baili- wick of rival candidate.
 The outcome of the senator's swift sortie will be watched with the deepest interest.

MAY HAVE REAL
 ELK HUNT SOON
Indications are that State Game Warden Prochaska Will De clare Limited Open Season of Elks on Sitgreaves Forest.

It is understood that this fall will see a real Elk hunt in Arizona, if statements of Joe V. Prochaska, state game warden, arc to be taken correctly. Prochaska recently visit ed the Sitgreaves National forest be- low Holbrook, and while there indi- cated that there will probably be an open season on Elk this fall
 It will be recalled that in 1918 or whereabouts, several carloads of Elk were taken to the Sitgreaves forest, and placed there in reserve under game protection laws. Their growth has now reached a stage where hunting would not be objectionable.
 The number of Elk hunters will be permitted to kill will probably be limited, as will also, no doubt, the of licenses which will be is- sued. If the open season is declared, it will be unique hunting opportun- ity, which members of the Elks lodge may possibly avail themselves to se- cure a set of Elk horns. Just how licenses to kill the Elk would or will be issued is not known.

 The story Sonora de Herrera yes terday told the judge through Jose phine Garcia, her friend and witness, was substantially the same as the one she related Monday when seek ing the arrest of Senor and Senora Domingo Garcia. Yesterdays hear ing, however, found two witnesses ranged on each side, with each pair reciting a version of the event op- posed in practically every particular to the version of the other side
 The victim of the Garcias' alleged assault, corroborated by her triend' maintained that she had been attack ed by the man and the woman Sun day afternoon near Granite creek, and that Senor and Sonora Garcia had not been sober at the time. They struck her in the nose with a stick she declared

ABORIGINAL DEMOCRACY

MARS. WARREN G. HARDING, says chie1 WI of the Yakima Indians, is good woman "a good woman and not proud".
 What sort of a woman did the chief expect to meet whene he was ushered into the presence of the White Father and his wife? Good, certainly. but perhaps little naughty The pride of race or achievement that an Indian chief feels is pro verbal Probably he felt that this first lady of the land might be, in an exalted and glorified way, imbued with some such pride and some such hauteur.
 He was immensely pleased to find otherwise To his possibly uncultivated mind the fact that Mrs. Harding IS woman easy to know and pleasant in converse, was very impressive It ticked his vanity while pleasing his taste in wo- men. Mrs. Harding complied with one of the well known rules of squawdom in that she was properly submissive and mot proud"

 These allegations were one and all denied by the defendants. They de- nied that they had attacked Sonora de Herrera, either near Granite creek or in a northeasterly direction; and they stoutly and indignantly affirmed that they had been as sober as owls. No liquor had moistened even their lips.
 After vainly trying to drag some reasonable conclusion from the verb al conflict, Judge McLane dismissed everyone and told them all to come back today.

1T. /. ATnOfd Manager
 In City on Business

Driving up from Phoenix in one of the handsome new Essex coach models, George H. Moriarty, general manager of the Arizona, Nevada and New Mexico branch of the Harold L. Arnold company of Los Angeles, who handle Hudson and Essex cars, arrived here yesterday afternoon. The Essex coach was brought up for de- livery to Dixon Fagerberg.
 MT. Moriarty will remain ill Pres colt all this week to confer with Elmer Lawrence, of C. w. Lawrence X Son, local dealers for the Essex.
 The car MT. Moriarty brought yesterday is the first of the new coach model Essexes to reach Pres colt. It represents a new tendency in automobile body construction, its lines being designed after the pie turesque coaches that were popular in England and America a century or more ago. The essential lines of the old coach construction have been retained, combined with the require ments of more modern simplicity and of automobile design. The interior is handsomely finished.
 MT. Moriarty makes his headquar- ters ill Phoenix, where despite the adverse financial conditions that have heretofore prevailed there, six car loads, or 50 Hudson and Essex cars, were sold during the past three weeks.
 T feel quite sure,' said he, "that our sales there are double those of any other car. In Phoenix, the fac tory maintains a service department where any part can be supplied. If a Hudson owner should want, for in stance, fender for a 1915 model, it can be promptly furnished. We have over $200,000 worth of parts, and this service is proving Immensely popular"
