The mission of America is about to bo accomplished.

American soldiers in France are at this moment demonstrating to the world the reason for America and the stuff of which this republic is made. Their complete success and the con- seauent eternal establishment every where in the world of the integrity of American rights, interests and honor and xhe. right of men to govern them-selves, are all assured with the proper performance of the plainest duty of the citizenry at home. The Fourth Liberty Loan is our next objective. There is no geography, political or physical, in the patriotism of this country.

Democrats and Republicans alike love their and are ready to die for it. We continually insist for all parties that the war be kept out of partisan politics and that partisanship be kept out of the war. Just as in Congress the Republicans ledtho fight that made possible the passage of the great war measures, so now the party membership and organization has an immediate, definite war task in the accomplishment of which it can fully function. I repeat, let there be no contest in this country as to anything that touches the war except that contest who best can serve, who most can give. The success of the Fourth Loan shall be the Republican party's supreme motif of thought and action until that objective is attained.

Wherever Republicans are together, by two or two thousand, it snail oe a win-thc-war meeting. Just as the Republican party's every action at all times has been and shall be determined solely by how we can contribute most to the war's success, so now our every thought and action shall be determined entirely by how we can make certain the quick over-subscription of the Fourth Liberty Loan. This is a united country's next message to Germany. The entire Republican organization In every voting precinct in this country shall be a fighting force in this Liberty Loan drive. This is the Republican organization's business.

This is the real business of every man, woman and child in America. "Everything else is chores." WILL H. HAYS. SOLDIERS NOW AT JEROME TO PREVENT OUTBREAKS A company of soldiers are now on guard at Jerome to prevent any further possibility of an I. W.

A Mexican, whose name is being withheld for his own protection, has reported to the officers that he saw Balesteros place the suitcase where it was found by a small boy early Wednesday morning. Others Discovered. Three other bombs have been discovered. One was found by a boy Wednesday afternoon, concealed near a water closet in the burned district The two others turned up late yesterday in the Rodriguez woodyard only a short distance from the house where the downstown shooting started at 1 o'clock Monday morning. The bombs, or grenades, were condensed milk and corn cans filled with dynamite nnd iron.

Each con tained two and half sticks of giant powder, which was surrounded by rusty bolts, rivets and nuts that evidently had been picked up on the 500 level at the United Verde. A cap and a fuse that would burn about a minute was attached to each bomb. Jerome News. Mrs. S.

When commissioned a first lieutenant, Tom Maddock was assigned to the Forty-third'Enginecrs, hut learning that the Forty-second Engineers were to leave for France first, he applied for and received a transfer to that regiment, which departed last May overseas.

W. P. HUNT BY FRED COLTER, PROXY The failure of the opponents of Fred T. Colter to make any headway in the Democratic state committee or the party council in their effort to have Colter withdraw from the race for governor because of his ineligibility to fill that office, leaves the issue unclouded for the coming election. Colter is nothing more than a Droxv for Governor Hunt and the issues this year are now the same as in 1916, despite the refusal of Hunt to accept the chalenge of Tom Campbell and: give the people of the state a chance to re call the decision of the Supreme Court which seated Hunt, ihe lines arc more clearly drawp this year, however, as Hunt has demonstrated his friendship for the I.

W. W. in many ways and Colter has never uttered a single word against that traitorous organization. There is not the slightest doubt in the minds of the best legal talent in Arizona that Fred Colter is really ineligible for he office of the governor of the state. If the constitution means what it says, he cannot hold that office.

All the silly constrictions placed upon the provision by such geniuses as the adjutant general ana other ambitious politicians seeking to curry Colter's favor, will not get the Apache senator by. The cloud remains and the barrier between the senator and the highest office in the state is un-surmountable. But why worry about Colter's ineligibility'; When Tom Campbell is elected governor of Arizona in November, there mil be no occasion to raise the question. But granting, for the sake of argument, that Colter can be elected, and the Supreme Court rules that the constitution which Hunt wrote means what it says and that he is ineligible, Hunt will be governor for another two years, as he serves until his successor is elected and qualifies, and if Colter cannot qualify, Arizona will in the event Colter is elected, get two more years of Hunt. The statu would be none the worse, however.

If we are going to have a state governed by proxy and Hunt still in control of affairs, why not let him be governor in name as well as in fact? Accordingly, the ineligibility of Senator Colter makes little difference one way or the other. If Campbell is elected, as now seems certain, the question will never be raised, if Colter is elected, Hunt will be the boss, anyway, and, in the event the question is then raised, and the Apache senator is declared ineligiblevthe principal instead of the proxy will hold the title of governor. Hunt, who dla not vlare run himself, still holds the reins. Fortunately, there are thousands of Democrats who will not throw away their vote on Colter and take the chance of getting two more years of Hun. It is now pretty well understood that a vote for Colter is a vote for Hunt anyway you look at it.

TWO ARRESTED CHARGED WITH KILLING CATTLE County Ranger Tom Eakins returned yesterday from up in the Utah country with two prisoners, Carl An-tile and Freeman Greer, both charged as being slackers and also on a felony warrant in which the charge is made that they had illegally killed beef on the Indian reservation. The two men were found at House Rock and were not inclined to come along at first, but through the efforts of Ranger Eakins they were finally persuaded to take the trip back by auto. They were lodged in jail here awaiting a preliminary hearing. Both men appear to be about 35 years of age. lines.

He wrote that he was very anxious to see service at the front and his wish has been granted. Lieutenant Maddock was nominated for Congress before he could be consulted, but he consented to the use of his name. He started out as a call boy on the Santa Fc twenty years ago, arose to be construction engineer for that road, became a member of the legislature, managed the campaign of Tom Camp-hell in 1916 and served for nearly a year as state engineer. His former associates among the union men on the Santa Fe railroad have given hjm a splendid endorsement. He has always been a man of action nnd is a fighter of the true American type.

SERGT. JOHN YOST, FUNERAL IMPRESSIVE Young Flagstaff Soldier Roy Dl camP Funston, KanS, Buried Here Sunday. The funeral service over the remains of Sergt. John Yost, held at the Church of Nativity, Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock, was one of the largest and most impressive ever held in Flagstaff. The remains reached Flagstaff Saturday afternoon and were accompanied by Sergeant W.

T. Howell from Camp Funston. There was a large gathering of friends at the station to meet the train and remains were escorted to the home of his parents by a squad of Normal cadets. Sunday afternoon the church was crowded to its utmost capacity by sorrowing friends, who came to pay their Tespect to the honored dead. The altar was decorated with innumerable floral tokens of beautiful designs and the casket was draped with the national colors.

The funeral sermon by Father Vabrc was a touching one, filled with strong patriotic utterances throughout. The greatest and most noble acts of man- kind came through the inspiration of God -and love of country. He pointed out the great need in the second line of defense, of prayers as well as the matrfal needs of the grat army that success should crown their efforts in making free, the world from ODDres sion and tyranny. The name of the brave young man cut down in the flower of youth and before rcachmcr nao uuijuilby, yvuuiu die lUJUIJIUIIIUrUltU by a golden star and his name written among those of the heroes who helped to make the most strikinsr history of the world since the time our Savior walked upon the Sea of Galilee. At the conclusion of the services at the church the procession was formed, headed by a firing squad in command of Sergt C.

P. Heiser and composed of Sergts. Harry Wiltse, Chas. Nichols, Privates Oscar Kaponke and James Chaves, all of whom have been in the service. Following them came a long line of friends on foot Following tho hearse was a procession, several blocks long.

After the firing squad had performed their duty, taps was sounded by Bugler Oscar Kapanke over the last resting place of comrade, friend, son and brother, whose duty to his country had been performed to the full. THE SOLDIER (Copyright by Edgar A. Guesh.) He came down the stairs of the laughter-filled grill, Where patriots were eating and drinking their fill. The tap of his crutch on the marble of white Caught my ear as I sat all alone there that night. I turned and a soldier my eyes fell upon, He had fought for his country, and one leg was gone.

As he entered a silence fell over the place; Every eye in the room was turned up to his face, His head was up high and his eyes seemed aflanle With a wonderful light, and he laughed as he came; He was young not yet thirty yet never he made One sign of regret for the price he had paid. One moment before this young soldier came in I had caught bits of speech in the clatter and din From the fine men about me in life's dress parade Who boasted of the sacrifices they had made. And I thought of my own paltry service with pride, When I turned and that hero of battle I spied. I shall never forget the hot flashes of shame That rushed to my cheeks as that young fellow came. He was cheerful and smiling and clear-eyed and fine, And out of his face a white light seemed to shine.

And I thought as he passed me on crutches: "How small Are the gifts that I make if I don't give my all." Some day in the future in many a place More soldiers just like him we'll all have to face. We must sit with them, talk with them, laugh with them, too, With the signs of their service forever in view. And this was my thought as I looked at him then: Oh God, make me worthy to stand with such men. BOY'S NARROW ESCAPE FROM DEATH BY A RIFLE BULLET The little eight-year-old son of Bert Cameron had a narrow escape from death yesterday afternoon. He was playing with his older brother, who had a loaded rifle.

In somd manner the rifle was discharged and the ball cut the base of his w.eeK na" making a flesh wound, then se the scol for a ew days through his clothing, making a bruise over his heart, but did not cut the flesh. The older boy rushed to Dr. Wilson and told him that he had shot his brother in the breast with a rifle; from his hasty description of the accident the doctor expected to find a dead boy. It was difficult as it was to tell just how the boy was not in-santly killed.

ON CRUTCHES MANY LIGHT CASES OF INFLUENZA AT NORMAL There are a number of cases of what is supposed to be Spanish influenza at the Normal school, though none of them are considered serious. The epidemic came suddenly the until the disease was under control.

County Health Officer Wilson was not greatly alarmed over the situation, but felt that all precauionary measures should be taken in order to prevent a further spread of the disease. Dr. Wilson believes the disease is nothing more than the ordinary influenza and not more dangerous than that old-time distemper which run over the country some years ago. DEATH OF I. N.

NORMAL SMEARS WINSLOW HIGH The pedagogues Winslow High in a ragged game of football Saturday to the tune of 33-0. The poor defensive play of the Winslow ends was largely responsible for their defeat, while on the other hand the Winslow backs never got started with the ball before the Normal forwards crashed through the line and nailed them. Isaacson, Murphy and Richards deserve special mention for their excellent charging, both on defense and the attach.

Normal kicked off to the Winslow 30-yard line. Eastman carried the ball back 15 yardsl Murphy smeared Hubbard behind the line twice and Winslow punted. With the Normal going down the field like the wind, Mays fumbled and lost their first opportunity to score. Home then replaced Mays and played a good game throughout In the second quarter Udall slid off tackle for 12 yards. Phelps gained 6 around end.

Dunklin lost two yards and Murphy completed a forward pass for their, second touchdown and the best play of. the game. It is difficult to judge a team from their first game, but the Normal line charged very well indeed and played together better than any line the Normal has so far turned out The back- field is the poorest one ever seen on a Normal team, with the exception of Udall. He played by far the best game of any hack until knocked out, and then Home "shone" in his place. The Normal team has an excellent coach and we can look for a great improvement over the really good game his team put up, the next time they are seen in action.

"Putting the Hun on the bum" has been the main business of the whole people during the past week, both in this country and ''over there." The news that the horns on the bull in Bulgaria had been cut off was welcomed, as was the amount of money subscribed in Coconino county's Liberty Bond quota. During the three days of volunteer subscriptions over $167,000 was subscribed andonany are still coming who were unable to get in during the volunteer period, but who are entitled to belong to the honor roll just the same. Tuesday the "shock committees" of the different precincts started in to gather up all those who had not as yet been able to get to the cash counter with their subscriptions. Up to yesterday afternoon the account stood $219,850 subscribed, with a balance of $241,050 yet to go. There is need of more enthusiasm in the drive and a realization that there is only two weeks more before Coconino COUntv will he r.nllivl imnn for a full accounting, and, if we haven't made good it will be the first time in the history of the wnr hnf we have not The more money it costs us the less lives it will cost.

What would you eive to have th war over by Christmas? The more you give now the better the prospect. The Hun is not completely crushed, but there is great hopes of it Hopes are good, but money is needed now to prove to the Hun that America's resources have not yet been scratched when it comes to a final finish of the battle he started. This is no time to stop nor even hesitate. Small sums show the patriotic intent of the subscribed as well as the larger sums. u.
