THE EMIGRANT.
1t is not where life is born, but
what the man does with it that counts.
Into the heart OF heathenism in the
Euphrates valley there came the baby
boy whose name was Abram. There
were three boys in the house Of Terah
until one tragic day when Haran died,
leaving his children, Lot, Micah and
Iscah to be cared for. Major settled
one part Of the problem by marrying
his niece, Micah, and the fate of her
sister is unknown, but possibly it was
in the harem of some Chaldean. But
death unsettled the family. Was it

plea at the gate of a grave that they
grew dissatisfied with the faith in the
moon goddess of Ur? Was Gods
message writ in tears 1t often is and
it may have been so here, for they
packed their goods and essayed the
Journey at the call. However it was
they obeyed, which is the ultimate
test of any life They were emigrants,
leaving behind the civilization that
has left its ruined cities, libraries and
laws to be uncovered by the seekers
of today. They turned their backs
upon the stored splendors of a
mighty empire that they might wor-
ship as they willed in strange land
one that they knew not. 1t was a
great adventure at the behest of con-
science and Abram became the leader
of the long line Of pioneers who have
subdued wildernesses on every CONT
nent.
The company reached Haran and
found themselves IN 1eftlle section,
along the trade route between East
and West, so that business made its
appeal to chrewd old Terah. They
might as we'll delay bit while profits
were good and the days ctretched into
weeks. The call of the frontier was
dulled by the chatter of trading and
presently it was no longer heard. 1t
was.the acceptance of a lower good
than that for which they had broken
with the old life in Ur. Many a man
does it today. A fine young leader
turned aside perfectly good opening.
He still is active in the Church

titles, but his life is on a distinctly

upon himself? Because he was like
God and Calvary was part of his life.
He won his victory over the pillagers
because he won it first over his spirit.
He refused to be mean though others
might treat him so. And he did not
send his servants-he went himself
and faced the risk there was in rescu-
ing the prisoners. He did not fight
for himself, but when another's need
called he sprang swiftly into the
fray
THE DEVOTEE.
Abram kept his altar fires alight.
Coming back laden with the fruits of
the victory he paused at the entrance
to his hills and bowed his head in
reverence at the prayer Of the priest
and received his blessing with high
joy. It was a revealing hour. Five
kings of the plain had been swept into
the net Of the invades. Four kings had
conquered them and now after hur-
ried pursuit that had taken three or
four days Abram had gained a de-
c;siva victory. In an incursion into
all unknown world he had shown his
ability to match himself with its best
and beat them at their own game. And
his God had given him his success.
Who wouldn't be a bit chesty under
the circumstances But now he meets
one of an alien race-a strange figure
in the record whose pedigree and pos
terity are unwritten-and admits his
claim to knowing Abrams God more
intimately even than himself. Not in
the art Of war but upon the chosen
field of Abrams spirit this other man
makes his challenging claim. Would
the pioneer share his God? Was his
faith big enough to include an alien
in the circle of intimates with the
Almighty? Here is real battle upon
the souls own field. And gloriously
Abram won it. Modestly he stepped
aside and gave preferment to Melchiz->
adec whose spirit of kindness and
service he recognized and acknowl-
edged by his gifts Guarding the
stores of his comrades carefully he
swept the whole spoil back into the
hands of its owners-his reward was
in the spirit, not in the spoil.

l25 GUESTS TO
ATTEND DINNER
FOR COL. RHEA

Reservations for the testimonial din
-ner for Col J. c. Rhea of Fort Hua-
chuca closed Wednesday noon with
nearly 1926 diners having made ar
rangements to gather for that affair
Saturday might at o'clock sharp at
the Cfuh Sociale in Aqua Prieta to
pay their respects to the popular Of
ficer.
The response has exceeded the fond
est hopes Of all those interested in
the dinner, it is stated and the COM
mittee which has been striving to
make the banquet a real success feels
that the great number of reservations
is Indicative Of the high regard in
which Col. Thaa is held by his many
friends in the Douglas section.
Mayor A. e. Hinton is to act as
toastmaster Saturday night and will
probably give brief address in be-
half of the citizens of Douglas. Col
Rhea Of course will be asked to say
a few words but the general program
will not include many addresses Din
ner will be served at o'clock and
the general entertainment will con-
tinue' until about 10 a. m. There will
ba music throughout the banquet and
probably dancing for all those who
wish.
Col. Rhea will be accompanied to
Douglas by delegation of Fort Hua-
chuca officers and their wives while
Camp Harry j. Jones of this city will
be represented by Col. and Mrs. G. b..
Townsend and large representation
of officers and their wives.

believed that a small "clean- up COM

city with the aim of putting the club
"over the top for it's initial quota.

CITY PRIMARIES
TO Be HELD ON
THIS SATURDAY

The Douglas city primary election
will be conducted Saturday in the
several wards of the city from a. m.
to D. M for the purpose of voting
for candidates for the several parties
to be nominated for office of mayor
and a member of the city council
from each ward.
With the exception of ward four in.
which w. j. Reay and Fred Lindner
are both seeking the councilmanic
nomination on the democratic ticket,
there are no contests in the primary,
as the other candidates seeking Of
flee are making the race on different
tickets. 1t is the hope of the city
officials, however, that a good pro-
portion of the approximately 1000
voters who have registered will cast
their ballots at the primary in sup
whether there is any opposition to
date.
It is pointed out by City Clerk G.
W. Pratt that it is the duty of every
eligible voter to vote Saturday and to
thus justify the existence of the pri-
mary system. Each person voting
Saturday, however, must have regis
tered this spring as past registration
is null and void.
A voter at the polls Saturday must
ask for the ballot of the party ticket
which he wishes to vote. There will
be two general choices open to him in
the field of ballots-he may ask for a
democratic ballot or a partisan
ballot All the candidates who have
entered the primary have had their
names placed on either of these two
ballots Blank spaces will be af
forded on both the democratic and
the non partisan ballots, however, for
a voter to write in the name of any

The mountain of crumbling gran
ite, rock and silt, held tight for 80
hours before it would reveal the
death chamber, trickling slush and
water behind the feverishly working
rescue gangs to blot their work out
behind them as they progressed in
front. However, the slide was pierced
today, and the facing of the tunnel
reached. The. four trapped miners
are in the muck somewhere near this
facing.
Silence fell over the whole scene
late today, and the anxious world
sought to pierce it in vain. The tele-
phone station at Grizzly, three miles
from the scene, which usually hum
med with disaster details, was silent,
and no word came out from the hills,
either by wire or courier.
The last word was that the rescue
gangs had cleared away the last foot
of intervening slide, and were taking
out the mud and rock by hand in
the search for the bodies. No one
dares use a pick or shovel, as it
might strike a body, and even the
back tunnel timbering is going on by
painful inches, lest the thick beams
and planks seal muddy tomb.

Senate Ratifies
Italian Debt Plan
Continued From Page one)

Immediately after the senate voted
and before it got into half hours
spectacular row over the question of
reconsideration, the treasury an
nounced that the American debt
commission would meet shortly to
begin negotiations with Senator
Henry BerenNer, the French ambas-
sador, who has been given full power
by his government to negotiate a
settlement.
Ambassador Berenger and Secre-
tary Mellon, chairman of the Amer
ican commission, have discussed the
settlement at length, but the treas
ury secretary said today that there
could be no agreement until the
American commission passed upon
any offer made by France.
The senate vote came after four
hours of bitter debate and after the
rejection of a motion to send the
settlement back to committee for
further investigation had been re-
jected, 54 to S3, the exact vote by
which the agreement was ratified.
After this action the senate re-
jected the Howell amendment, 55 to
4.
after debate had been closed by the
unanimous consent agreement to vote
at four p. m. and was explained.
Senator Reed of Missouri, voted
against this amendment and later
for the debt settlement explaining
that he did so in order that he
could present motion to reconsider.
