more readily, and workers worked more j
energetically. And lust night it was
an assured fact that an unknown num
lr of thousands of people would he
at the slate fair grounds for the great
est spectacle i'hoenix has ever seen.
Osidfiitial and business districts
were alike covered in a fast campaign
yeslerday. .More than a score of wo
m:'n in motor ears started early in the
morning for a campaign through the
resilience districts, and they were
.iliined immediately hy several teams
of liiiii school alumni workers. At the
same time more alumni workers went
out to recomi) the business district.
'Xo complete report was available
last niht. but every indication was
that the tickets were going faster than
ever, and that workers were working
lunder than ever. Only a few boxes
for the tournament remain, but there
will be plenty of tickets to go around
to everybody. The ticket selling drive
will go on with the same energy today
and tomorrow.
Mass Meeting Friday Night
Tomorrow night will mark the pre
liminary of the tournament, and the
whirlwind finish of the ticket cam

Kirst. avenue and Adams. A Fokker
;drplane, captured from the Huns but
to be flown by an American pilot dur
ing the tournament Saturday night,
will be on exhibition on First avenue
flanked by two bands in trucks, and
the avenue will be closed between
Washington and Adams to permit
imple room for the crowds. .Miss Mar.
guerita Fischer, film star who will ar
rive tomorrow for the tournament, will
appear .at the meeting, and a great
program is promised.
With every plan completed for the
tournament, only a record crowd is
needed to make the tournament Saturday-
night the biggest success in the
history of tiie state. The official pro
gram will start at 4 o'clock Saturday
afternoon, and from that time until 9
o'clock every minute will be crowded
wiih action. Ten big events each
thrilling enough for an entire per
formance are on the program, includ
ing memorial addresses, music by sing
ers as well as massed bands, airplane
motor car racing, stunt and formation
living by an aerial fleet from Kockwell
Field, and a war talk by Captain Eddie
i iickenbacker himseif.
One Ace to Honor Another
Captain Kickenbacker will be easily

whom death checked in his rush to
further heights of glory. Captain
I Iickenbacker is at present in Los An
gles, where, at a reception in his honor
.Monday night, he paid stirring tribute
to Lieut. Frank Luke, calling him "the
greatest airman of them all" and the
wild man of the air.' It is Lieut. Luke
and tiie other fallen heroes of the
county whom Captain Rickenbacker
and all who participate and attend the
tournament will honor.
Captain Rickenbacker will not ar
rive in this city until Saturday, and
will have to break several arrange
ments to come at all. Miss Fischer

Bringing action for $20,000 for false
imprisonment, llrs. Helen Wright has
filed suit in the superior court against
Rye Miles, sheriff of Pima county, his
deputy, George Holioway, and the
Maryland Casualty company. Mrs.
Wright alleges she was taken from the
train ind imprisoned at Benson in the
belief that she was Nina Wagner, the
girl who came here from Oklahoma
with VY. D. Thornton, whose report of
having missed J1.700 in Liberty bonds
and $1,000 in cash, led the authorities
to telegraph along the line in hope of
arresting Nina Wagner before she
refiched the coast.
Mrs. Wright claims that the arrest
was made on the train and that the
deputy sheriff accompanied her to the
ladies' dressing room and compelled
her to take off her' nightgown and
dress, with a view of leaving the train
fit Benson.
Arrested While at Tucson
In the complaint filed by Jesse C.
Wanslee and Sprowls and Downing,
Mrs. Wright claims that she left Phoe
nix on February 2S in response to
word of the illness of her mother-in-law,
who was living in Mathis, Texas.
She passed through Tucson at midnight
and at that point Holioway placed her
under arrest. Mrs. Wright alleges that
she inquired the charge and that she
was informed she had stolen certain
money in Phoenix. She claims that
she then showed the officer the tele
gram calling her to Texas and pro
duced her marriage license, but Tfce
deputy is alleged to have sneered and
declared that he did not believe her.
He told her, she states, that she was
the woman he wanted and that she
would have to leave the train at the
next stopping place.
Mrs. Wright contends that he' then
went with her to the dressing room
and not only remained while she
dressed, but proceeded to go through
her luggage, which greatly embarrassed
her. She states that she left the train
at 2 o'clock in the morning and re
mained in jail at Benson for 12 hours.
When she was released she was greatly
frightened, the pMaintiff avers, her
nerves were shattered and she suffered
great bodily harm and humiliation.
Husband Is Overseas
At the time of her arrest, Mrs.
Wright's husband was with the over
seas army and is still in France. She
i a woman who is said to be fully
two inches taller than Xina Wagner,
and her hair is said to be a Titian,
while the woman for whom she was ar
rested is a decided brunette with dark
brown hair.
Mrs. Wagner was tried on the grand
larceny charge, for which Mrs. Wright
was taken into custody,' last week, the
jury on Friday night being discharged
by failure to come to an agreement.

DEMOCRAT SLOGAN
How to get together and keep to
gether was the subject before the
house yesterday at the meeting of the
democratic party council, still running
harmoniously under the impetus given
it the day before by the national com
mittee chairman, Homer S. Cummings.
Organization was the watchword and
the slogan. The various speeches con
tained hints o a lack of democratic
cohesion in the past, and the desire was
expressed that the fragments might be
brought together and glued into an in
separable mass.

COCCHI STORY RIDICULOUS
XKW YORK, June 25 Alfred J.
Tally, assistant district attorney of New
York, today characterised as "abso
lutely ridiculous and preposterous," the
story of Alfredo Cocchi, on trial in
Bologna, Italy, for the murder of Ruth
Cruger, that it was Mrs. Cocchi who
killed the Cruger girl before Cocchi
dismembered the body-
"The best evidence that we give Coc
chi's story no credence, is that we are
not looking for Mrs. Cocchi," Mr. Tally
said.

ing officer. One of the speakers was
George Purdy Bullard, who offered a
suggestion for the suppression of bit
terness which is engendered in pri
mary campaigns. He proposed that
meetings of the party council should
be held before the primaries instead
o fafter them, after all the damage has
been done.
The idea was that the party council
should consider what may be called a
preferential ticket and to some extent
get behind it. That would not deba.
the citizen from the God-given and
constitution-provided privilege of run
ning for a nomination, but it would
give a big edge to men who would be
more likely to enlist the party's
strength. Such action by the party
council would be the next best thing
to the convention, where matters ot
that kind are supposed to be disposed
of after due deliberation. As it is.
many men who run for office are. guid
ed only by instinct.
Speeches were made by Judge West
over of Yuma, Judge Barnum and
others, all looking to some way to re
deem Arizona from republican control
in the governor's chair.
At the meeting of the council last
spring, the subject or organization was
considered and the secretary sent out
letters to about 100 leading democrats.
It was stated yesterday that replies
had been received from only two. It
was decided that the better plan, not
withstanding the reduced postage rate
which will go into effect on July 1, will
be to send messengers throughout the
state to interview democrats of local
prominence in person. That proced
ure, it is said, was recommended by
Mr. Cummings the day before.
The absence of former Governor
Hiint from the meeting was remarked
by some of the members, and it was
recalled that the former governor had
kept himself in the background on the
occasion of the visit of the national
chairman.

NOAH, 1919
If good old Noah were here today,
He would not build in the olden way;
He would not hammer and peg an ark;
He'd hie to the back yard after dark,
And dig and delve in the cool dark
ground
A cellar an hundred cubits round.
And when that cellar was delved and
digged.
The bins all laid and the tackle rigged.
He'd hoist to rest in the cool dark
ground
The critters he loved from the whole
world round.
He'd lower the demijohns, two by two,
And little fat kegs of Milwaukee brew.
The -squat black bottles with squirrel
inside, '
The littie pinch bottles from over the
tide,
.The magnums marching in stately
pairs,
The flasks in couples with monkish
airs.
These and more like a chubby mole,
Noah would store in his cubby hole.
Honest Noah: that good old man!
What would he do when the drought
began?
Would lie pity and let them "in, ' '
Shcm and Japhet and all his kin? -Could
he, fresh from the flowing spout.
Watch, poor Ham when his tongue
hung out?
Well, I'll wager he'd pause and think
Twice at least on the cellar's- brink,
"Durn their hides," he would likely say.
"Why did they go for to vote that
way? -
Going dry in the flood was pie
To keeping wet when the world is dry."

LICENSE VIOLATION EVIDENCE
CHICAGO June 25. Eighty saloon
keepers and ten wholesale liquor deal
ers today paid the internal revenue tax
for the fiscal year beginning July 1,
just as though prohibition had never
been heard of. Anti-Saloon league of

tax receipt is prima facie evidence, un
der the new Illinois search and seizure
act, of law violation.

Of course there will be a great up
roar raised against the law which the
Anti-Saloon League has proposed in
congress providing for the confiscation
of private stocks of liquors, but after
all, the proposed legislation is consis

people should have booze all the
rest of their lives, while those who
have not the money to stock up with,
must go without. Portland-Press.
