AS a token of the high esteem
in which MIR. Curtis is held by
members of the fire department,
young and old, who have fought
fires with him for many years, he
was presented with a gold badge,
and by a framed, beautifully writ

greatly.
Gus Michaels, the new chief of
TIE fire department, presided as
toastmaster, and an excellent meal
was served by Nuti's Place, which
is known far and wide throughout

nothing but the best is served in

A telegram received here Sat
urday by Assistant Terminal Sup

r Titcomb, president of the Sud
tacifico de Mexico, discloses the
following information:
Offices have been leased by the
Sud Pacifico de Mexico railroad
at Guadalajara, Jalisco, and the
general offices of the company
which have for several years been
located in Tucson will be moved to
the new location during the
months of June and July. This
will include all offices and de-
partments including the East
Coast Oil Company of which Mr..
Titcomb is president which has
been operating in the Tampico Dis
trict and which furnishes fuel for
several @ailroads in Texas and
Louisiana.
This move is in accord with the
concession granted the Sud Paci-
fico railroad by the Mexican Gov
ernment for the construction and
operation of the railroad which
requires the offices to be located
in Mexico as soon as possible after
the line is completed.

COP Will Be Ground Dry West and Wet East ak Out Boston

DR.. Butler has been in attend
ance at Republican National Con-
ventions since 1880. At that first
convention he was not a dele
gate, but a newspaper correspon-
dent. However, he was delegate
al the 1888 convention and also to
six of the nine conventions since
then. 1t has been forgotten gen.
orally by the public that DIR. But
Ter was vice-presidential running
mate with William Howard Taft in
1912. This came about through the
sudden death of James S. Sher-
man, who had been nominated at
Chicago. The Republican lead
ers then named DR.. Butler to fill
out the ticket.
AS to the scheduled debate with
Senator Borah, DIR. Butler states
simply: II am ready to discuss the
attempt to enforce national pro-
hibition by constitutional amend
ment. The Federal Constitution
was defaced and deformed by the
addition of the Eighteenth amend
ment and its passage effected the
beginning of revolution in the
American form of Federal gov
ernment. This is the fundament-
al reason why the attempt to con-
troll the liquor traffic by these
means has failed"
