A., Foreman of the Pres! n church of Douglas told an a 1 e of 500 people at the patrioti munity service Sunday night Tenth street park on the 150th versary of thd birth of the States of America. Touching- on the great value of the Declaration of Independence and upon the dignity of the Constitution, the Reverend Foreman added, in regard to the moral issues of the nation: “I feel that there is a higher and more responsive public sentiment touching all moral questions today j than has existed at any time in our previous history.” After paying tribute to those who have gone beyond that this nation might survive, he stated: “Another great evil to bo put away, not alone from our own land, but from all the world, is war. Our duty is to create an organized sentiment for peace with the same diligence* we have in the j past created and organized sentiment for war.” A beautiful summer’s evening serv- j ed as a setting for the meeting, which j was called to order at 7 o’clock and j which was preceded T>y several pa- j triotic selections by the 10th cavalry j band from Fort Huaehuca.

O. ’L. Enyeart read the 98th Psalm, with the Rev. Ben Matthews leading In prayer and tbp Rev. J. E. Howard giving the benediction. Reverend Foreman said in part: “Ot ail our national holidays the i one most stirring and significant to. the heart .of every true Amo.“can is j the one we call Independence Day, ei j perhaps more commonly designated) the Fourth of July. On this date, in the year of 177 C, about 4 o’clock in j the afternoon, the Declaration of In dependence was adopted by members j of the continental congress assembled in the state house in Philadelphia, now known as Independence HUI We look back to this event aa the birth hour of our nation.

J. Xemeck. Severak thousand automobiles were parked in the vicinity of the display which lasted about 45 minutes and which was replete with thrills and ingenuity. The* first rockets were sent off at 8:30 sharp and from then on one thing followed another.. As usual the best part of the ex hibit was in the air where every sort of noisy yet beautiful pyro technic feature gave thrilling ef fects. There were several ground fea tures also including some mighty pretty flower pots and the crowd seemed to enjoy them almost as well as the shooting rockets and bombs. Chief Nemeck and bis men handled the display with, efficiency and discretion mixing the various kinds of fireworks in a capable manner. A huge American flag plaque was I lighted at the conclusion of the dis play and drew forth cheers and tooting- of horns. DOUGLAS, ARIZONA, TUESDAY MORNING, JULY 6, 1926, !INDIAN SCOUTS FEATURE OF BIG JULY 5 PARADE i A feature of the Fourth of July •parade Monday morning which prob- I ably only a. few Douglasites appreei j ated was embraced in a group of 12 Apache Indian scouts who rode be hind the :<)t.h IT S. cavalry, Fort I Huaehuca. These 12 horsemen made the entire [distance from the fort to Douglas j ■llß miles, in 30 hours. They left the fort Thursday morn- J j ing at 6 o’clock, with Lt. Charles W.. Fake, coming byway of Tombstone and Middle Pass through the Dragoon I mountains to Cochise Stronghold, then over through Pierce and McNeal, ar- riving’ at Cowan’s ranch Friday after- J noon about 4 p. m. They spent the night at that ranch and came into Douglas for the parade Saturday morning. These scouts rang© in age from 22; to 85, the oldest having been ni the 1 army since 1876 and doing continuous service. The Indians formed a most pictur-1 esque group as they rode quietly j down G avenue yesterday morning in their army garb, mounted upon ponies rather than upon usual army horses of the cavalry. These very Indians parading through the streets of Douglas on July 4, 1926, are descendents of the great. Cochise's warriors who so long ruled the wilderness! of Arizona and rav aged the white man’s possessions. To day they are serving as. members of j the army which they once fought so. Bitterly.

Ricard fell in other parts of the state hut did not reach Douglas except in one instance. It should be noted that the bulle tins of the Santa Clara scientist deal almost exclusively with California weather, and their application to Ari zona is in great measure a matter of surmise. The July bulletin, for this reason, is given below in full, and where there is no direct reference to Arizona, local residents may follow their own interpretation of weathej, conditions here. The prophecy of a copier summer than normal, issued last January, has been borne out, the highest temperature recorded in Doug las In June being- only 102 degrees Fahrenheit. Following is a complete text of July bulletin: July 1. —Fair jind warm. July 2.—Fair in Calfirnia, Idaho, Nevada and Arizona, beginning to rain in southern Alaska and Vancou ver island. July 3. —Fair in California, still raining in western sections of Wash, ington and northern Oregon. July 4.—Fair and warm.

Short ly before the hour for the strike lead ers of the workers claimed that their forces had /been increased to 1,000 i through the addition of about 200 i conductors nnd a number of men from other departments. As the striking motormen, ending their runs, stepped from the trains, i they were replaced by strike breakers brought from other cities by the com pany.

He refused to divulge any angle involved, saying the report would be turned over to the United States attorney. The federal quiz was given added impetus today under personal direction of United States Attorney McNabb, Who returned here last night with the an nouncement he would assume charge of the government’s inquiry which so far centered about possible Illegal aspects In connection wltn the mailing of a $500,000 ransom letter to Mrs. Minnie Kennedy, mother of tho evange list. t Kenneth G.

Ormiston disappeared following his voluntary visit to Ocean Park a few days after Mrs. McPherson disappear ed while surf bathing there. At that time lie was questioned briefly by po lice detectives. Postal inspectors continued search tonight for a typewriter which is be lieved to have been used in typing tho ransom letter, but which was lost, after once having been located.

Greenway encampment, and by the Fred Hilburn post, American legion. Both these latter organizations 'had fine turnouts. Leading the fraternal section were the Elks with their red, white and blue parasols. They were followed by a pretty girl in a patriotic-colored airplane representing the Douglas Moose, after which came a decorated truck filled with kiddies as repre sentatives of the Moosehart organ ization of this city. One of the most impressive groups in this section was composed of the Y. W. M. A. girls who both paraded and rode on a large blue and white float. As an adjunct to the girls in this group were four cars filled with members of the board of di rectors of the Y. W. A bunch of young folks from the First Baptist church slid by in a large white float constructed to rep resent a church and' behind them came the Epworth league representa tion in a decorated car. Four boys in gym suits and push ing bicycles tastefully decorated with red, white and blue came next, the vanguard of the Y. M. C. A. and they were followed by other boys of that organization, all in athletic uniforms and carrying placards tell ing of the aims of the “Y.” Several children carrying Bibles under a banner denoting them as the “Daily Bible School” were next in line while comic entries offered' two cleverly dressed women characters and a tramp, all of whom were most amusing along the line of march. Several nicely decorated commer cial machines made up the commer cial car section while the fire de partment brought up the rear of the procession. Starting nt G avenue and Fif teenth street, the marchers proceeded down G avenue to Sixth street, then counter marched up G to Tenth street and down Tenth to the city park where they disbanded. Those in the reviewing stand at the Gadsden were Mayor and Mrs. A. E. Hinton, Col. and Mrs. A. B. Tankard. Attorney and Mrs. J. P. Boyle, Mr. ndaMrs. S. T. Applewhite, Mr. and Mrs. Harry A.

Giving as their reason the lack of funds in the county road budget the supervisors at their first meeting in May passed a resolution giving the county engineer, his assistant and the office stenographer a leave of absence i until the first of July. As a result of this action most of the maintenance crews on county roads' were laid off and work on county roads practically abandoned. Under the resolution passed last week, the county road department will resume full activities and the crews are expected to be on the roads this week.

JUAREZ-EL PASO SPLIT FIRST 2 El Paso broke in front Saturday by defeating- Juarez, 9 to 8, in a thrilling ninth-inning rally. Juarez evened the county Sunday when Adolf Arguijo pitched masterful ball and repulsed the Giant attack. The score was 7 to 0. The bitter rivalry between El Paso and Juarez, which has been smolder ing all season, burst into a flame in the fourth inning of Sunday's game when Coombs and A1 Muruato locked horns near first base and were thrown out of the game by Umpire Harry Kane. Both men were on the ground and swinging when the other players separated them. They were allowed to remain in the dugouts during the re mainder of the game. Although Arguijo pitched brilliant ly throughout the game, the sensation al support of his team-mates kept the El Paso wrecking crew quiet and sev eral fast double plays broke up bud ding rallies. Juarez put two runs across the plate in the opening chapter when Johnson hit a threebaggcr to right center, scor ing Minjarez, who had singled, and Jonz, who had walked. They added two more in the next in ning. Muruato, first man up, shot a single to right. Arguijo hit a fly to Allison and arrived safely to first base and Muruato went to second when the El Paso right fielder juggled the ball. Muruato dented the plate on Antista’s Texas leaguer and Arguijo registered Juarez’s fourth run on Gonzalez’s sin* gle over short. Homer in Third. IH the third inning, with two outs, Arzate picked one of Tilton’s offerings and sent it to the left field fence for a round trip, chalking up run number five for .Juarez.

The Yankees have led all season and still lead the hitting in the American league, and for the majors generality as far as that goes, but several climbing clubs are beginning} to make the league race for slugging honors anything but a one-team affair. And this despite the valiant efforts of Babe Ruth, the veteran Joe Dugan and Mesuel, each of whorii tackecl some points to their averages during the past week, and Gehrig, who slip ped a bit. Otherwise the Yanks have dropped out of sight among the lead ing hitters and the team batting per centage has) dropped to .309. The White Sox are worrying the Yankees more than anybody else in the matter of hitting. Eddie Collins' crew have stuck closest to the league leaders in the pennant chase and it has been largely because of hitting, not as spectacular! as that Jof the New York wrecking crew, but con: sistent. The Chicago club has beer. hitting at .297, and Bib Falk, Mostil j and the veteran Eddie keep the Sox j well represented among the leading t sluggers. If the rest of the Tigers were hit j ting like three of Ty’s outfit, the S Yankees would top the hitting only by a grim fight, and Detroit even now has third place in the standing and is apparently moving upward. Fothergill, Heilmann and Bassler are above .350, and Fothergill, with his average of .424, has become the lead ing hitter in the majors. Ruth was the feature in the past week’s slugging, running his rating up to .391 and nosing out Gehrig with a new total of 74 runs. He also col lected a trio of homers) during the eleventh week of the season to cut down the lead of his, total at this time in his championship year. Falk of the Sox and the Indian Burns passed the century mark in hits. Base stealing isn’t the popular sport it was, Hunnefield of Chicago having been the chief feature of the past week by his approach to the total of Meusel, leading the American with 15 thefts. Shaute of Cleveland became a lead ing pitcher by fininshing the eleventh week with seven games won and one lost. Pennock of the Yanks had a record of 12-4, his team mate, Shocker, had one of 10-4, and Ted Lyons of Chicago had won 12 and lost 6 of his games. With the Reds driving along in the fore of the National flag race, the Hendricks players have increased their hitting pace and now lead the league h ihatiDuul, wzedi, /atn-dsjwnfejdmtL S. S.

Four of the 10 lead ing National sluggers are Reds, and Dressier, handy man of the club, leads the individual hitters, with .374. Pittsburgh’s faltering in the cham» pionship lint tie echoes, and is re echoed by the Pirates’ slugging. They have dropped to fifth place in the club batting and would be farther down but for the work of Cuyler, Smith, Traynorj ‘ant* Wright. Both Kiki and Traynor slipped badly, how ever. The Cubs have fared poorly in the flag chase, but it doesn’t show in their hitting, the McCarthymon still cling ing to a .287 figure, which they now share with the Phillies, who have prospered while the Pirates flagged in batting. Cuyler’s struggle to remain the leading base stealer in the big time games has not handicapped his hit ting, apparently, and he and Curt Walker of the Reds are tied for high hit totals. Blades of St. Louis has the most runs to his credit, 60, and Bottomley led in home runs. The two outstanding flingers in the senior circuit are Rhem of the Car dinals and Donohue of Cincinnati. Rhem has won eleven games and lost one, and the Red veteran has won eleven but has been c/rt-dited with five losing efforts.

Tho three leading sluggers in the American Association are the Mil waukee Brewers, but the consistent team clouting of the Colonels yhas broken a tie and put Louisville ahead in the club hitting. Milwaukee ad vanced one point during the eleventh week of the season, but the Colonels moved up three for a league leading average of .319. Hitting generally was on the up grade, six of the teams batting .300 or better, and Shulte of Milwaukee held the individual lead with a rating of .408, closely pressed for the hon ors. The Brewer outfielder incident ally pounded himself into the lead in all around batting, runs, hits and to tal bases. The leading batters were somewhat re-arranged during the week ending last ‘Wednesday, Brief of Milwaukee climbing /in second place with his team ,mate, McHenry, in third. Veach of Toledo found the pace too stiff and relinquished a long-held lead. Webb and DeVormer of the Colonels stuck in the first ten. Fleet-footed Lebourveau of the Mud Hens ran his total in stolen bases to 27, a remarkable total which finally passed the effort:* of Richbourg of Milwaukee, who had been threaten ing. Dawson of Louisville has had no little share in the Colonel’s climb and his record of eight games won and none lost is the best in the circuit. Elldeman of Milwaukee finished the eleventh week with 12 victories and 4 losing starts credited for 'the sea son, Hill of Indianapolis with his 11-4 ranking next.

There was little change in the gen eral hitting of the AVestern league during the past week, but several minor upsets occurred among the leading sluggers. Blakesley of Omaha fell off three points to an average of .449, which puts him well ahead of his nearest rivals, but, Casey of Tulsa dropped 20 points in his. percentage. The Tulsan continued in second place, however. Sturdy of Tulsa, “Bate Ruth” of the league, collected torn* circuit drives during the eleventh week of the sea son, but otherwise fared badly and was shoved down the averages c 01.343; SEVEN umn. Briekell of Wichita was an other who suffered* reverses, while Henry, Patterson and Lewis climbed. The home run slugging of Sturdy keeps him well, out in front, tto tal up until last {Wednesday being 37. Another long distance hitter who keeps in the limelight is Wet2el of Des Moines, who has cracktd otft 33 doubles. Smith of St. Joseph leads in triples slugging with 14.

The fath- I ers of that day sensed the importance j of their own act. John Adams, one ot j jtlie leaders of the continental con-j gress, predicted that this event would 'i be ‘celebrated by succeeding genera i tions as the great universal festival,’ [land said that it ‘ought to be coramem s i orated as the day of deliverance by r j solemn acts of devotion to Almighty God.’ He also said it ‘ought to be ’solemnized with .pomp and parade, I with shows, games, sports, guns, bon fires and illuminations, from one end !of this continent to the other, from this time forward forever more.’ S eflwin i On t e n n I a I “This anniversary being the sesqui j centennial of the independence of the United States is deserving of espgcta-i j recognition. When one pauses to contemplate the face that our nation j r is only 150 years oM and, then take 3 j jan inventory of her progress and j J j achievements, he can but feel a sense j iof amazement. One hundred and fifty! years is a very brief period when! considering the lives of nations. It i I Is a little span indeed compared with j "J the 30 centuries? of Chinese history j 3 i the 25 centuries of Japanese history, 3 jor with the almost 15 centuries ot .English history. The story of our I I growth and achievements reads almost t j like a fairy tale, so far does it sur pass the development, of any other people or nation of whiph we have a record. From no place among the na j tions of the earth we have come to a j position that is second to none. in I I population we have grfwn from less! than three million to IJS million. In' wealth we stand first among the na- J tions of the earth. Our per capita! j wealth has increased in the past two j generations from S3OO to more than S3OOO.- One hundred and fifty years ago most of the territory of these j United States was a unoccupied J wilderness; only a narrow strip of the' primeval forest along the Atlantic] coast had been- occupied. At that time' the western frontier was still east Ot j the Ohio river. One hundred years i ago it was still east of the Mississippi. Today we have no frontier. Educational and Moral Progress “From the earliest day in our his« j tory we have had a passion for edu-, cation. One »of the first things our j forefathers did after building a cabin! 1 j for their shelter and erecting meeting] 1 j houses for worship w«as to build a log! I school house. Before Independence ;year more than a dozen colleges ana] j universities had been established. Then! came the building up of our public j school system which, iias popularized, i education and which is the pride of every- true American. We rejoice in the fact that any ambitious youth who has the will can find away of win ning an education. In all the walks of life today we find the college bred j mart. Our investments in this cause j have increased in the pant 50 years j at a tremendous rate. In 1870 our j expenditure per capita for' education j was little over $5; today it is almost S6O. “In the 150 years of our history we ha% r e had to meet great and difficult mdral questions—questions that have I touched intimately the political, social j ar.d moral life of our people and na j ition. One of these consumed the in- I terests of our fathers for the first century of our national ejste'nce and j war. settled by the resort to a civil j war. In Lincoln’s famous words: i Our country could net eist- half slave! and half free.’ Much as we deplore j the shedding of so much precious blood from ’6l to ’65, we all do re- r j >jce the curse of slavery ivas re-j moved from our national escutcheon, and that we made true in fact what we had written into the Declaration of InjdepentU noc— ‘that all men are I created free and equal.’ “The second great moral question] that lias agitated our people in the more recent decades and upon which their will has been epressed is the j liquor question. The answer of our I people to this question is to be found J in the 18th amendment to the Con j sti.tution, which every good American] is bound to support as long as it re mains part of the fundamental law at our laud. “In addition to these two outstand ing victories for righteousness, there 'have been many more which, while i and prohibited by law. .The average less conspicuous, have contributed j much to the moral and physical well- being of our people. Certain forms of political corruption, industrial op-.j‘ press-ion, social impurity, unsanitary I housing conditions in our great cities, j, which formerly were tolerated are; now frowned upon by public sentiment.! of human life has been greatly in- f creased and personally I am optimis- i I tic about the moral conditions of our country. 1 feel there is a higher ami, more responsive public sentiment touching all moral questions than has] existed at any time in our previous history. ItrUKimm Development “The inspiration for our signal vie j tories along all lines which have j j lifted the levela of living and think- j j ing of the American people has been, land I am persuaded, the 'Christian! religion. Reltgion has been an in tegral part of our life and history, j Our country was first occupied in the name of religion. Religious convlc- tion more than any one influence im-. pelled the first immigrants to this’ country, to brave a perilous journey j across the Atlantic, and endure the hardships of building a home in the: wilds of a virgin country. They were willing to undergo all these privations that they might have the liberty which was being denied them in their mother] land, of worshipping God according to the dictates of their conscience. These! earliest forebears of ours were men I of one book. Professor William Lyon Phelps of Yale has said ‘The best j thing the Pilgrims brought over in j the Mayflower was the Bible.’ It was 1 the library of the Pilgrim fathers for j j their first few years of their life in 'Plymouth. No one can estimate thu i influence upon America of that Bible j which the Pilgrims brought. The i very political ideals of the early col-J j onies were drawn front the Old Tes-, j tament and the teachings of Christ. Democracy had its birth in the Biibll- cal teachings of the worth of man arid the brotherhood of men. Democ-1 racy is simply Christianity applied to political institutions, it is simply the shape Christianity takes when trans lated into terms of the state. “In closing may we pause for one Imomen to pay our tribute of honor, jto all who have borne arms in de- j i sense of their country and those prin-j j ciples of justice and liberty to which j the signers of the Declaration of In- j dependence pledged to each other their j lives,- their fortunes and their sac-red i j honor. We tonight are not unmind- j 1 ful of the patriotism which prompted] those citizens who have answered t.hej pall of their country in her times ot j need by offering their lives. Mahy'j jof these paid the supreme sacrifice, j I To the dead and to the living we say, j j ‘All) honor to you.’ As these have lived and fought and perhaps died ir.j I war for the security of their country j land humanity, so* may be who now] live, labor and sacrifice for a lasting reace. i j Political Announcements CANDIDATE FOR CONGRESS I hereby announce my candidacy for Congress, subject to the will of i voters at the democratic primaries to !be held September 7, 1926.
