in Elk History Evange

Speaker
PHOENIX CAN LEARN
T. B. (Tex) Bond, who had been flirt
ing with the law for a long time, is
now seriously engaged with it. He is
in jail in default of a bond of $1,000
fixed by Justice Wheeler by whom he
had been held to the superior court on
a eharge of mortgaging the property of
another.
L'.ond was arrested on the complaint
ot John Lively of Glendale who said
that he had leased him 30 head of cat
tle at H a head per month. The lease
provided that the increase of the cattle
should he divided equally between
ihem. Lively charged that sometime
alter that Bond mortgaged five head
of the cattle to the Maricopa Creamery
company.
"The annual grand lodge convention
of the Elks at Atlantic City was by far
the biggest and best convention the
order has ever held in the report of A,
A. Betts, past exalted ruler of tha
Phoenix B. P. O. E.. who attended the
convention as the Arizona delegate.
"Eighteen hundred delegates weme
present" Mr. Betts said, "the next larg
est convention having had 1,500 in attendance-
Several thousand members,
in addition to the delegates, were pres
ent: in fact, the convention opened
with at least 5,000 Elks present on
July 8."
"There were too many things done,"
continued Mr. Betts, "and too many
matters considered to tell even briefly,
but two things, to my mind, stood out
over everything else in the convention.
One of these was the address of Evan
geline Booth, and the other was the
thanks of the government fo the work
done by the Elks during and since the
war for the general good of all.
"Evangeline Booth, commander-in-chief
of the Salvation Army, is the only
woman that was even invited to ad
dress the grand lodge of the Elks, and
she wag the first number on the pro
gram. She spoke for an hour and tier's
was the most inspiring address I have
ever heard. She had those fellows
shedding tears, and that was some ac
complishment. She told of the work of
her Army back of the fron and she
thanked the Elks for their work in
raising funds for the greatly enlarged
home service campaign the Salvation
army now has under way.
A Heroic Girl Worker
"Characteristic of her stories of the
service rendered at the front was that
of one of the Army's girl workers. She
was stationed just back of the lines In
a threatened sector, dispensing cheer
and food to the boys at every oppor
tunity. Things got hotter, and hotter,
and finally the commanding officer
came to her station and told her she
must move further back, that she was
in the gravest danger. 'No, colonel,'
she replied, 'I am here to do everything
can for these boys, to die for them
and with them if necessary". She
stayed-"
Mr. Betts then related how repre
sentatives of the government had been
present at the convention to thank the
order, for their war work, particularly
in their aid to partly disabled soldiers
who were entitled to rehabilitation
work at the expense of the government,
and of the part the Elks nad played
in carying for these men while the
government was temoprarily short of
funds for the work. .
"Nearly half a million dollars was
advanced to these men Dy the order,
said Mr. Betts, "to take care of them
until another appropariation should be

in lonas to tide them over while their

LESSON FROM L. A. IN
GETTING FACTORIES
"Phoenix can not anly benefit grat
ly from the big fabris and tire factories
of the Goodyear company, but in my
opinion can learn some very valuable
lessons from the way the company was
received and the reason they selected
Los A.igeles," said B. E. Marks yester
day, after returning from a trip to Lo
Angeles, during which he attended the
luncheon in honor of A. F. Seiberling,
president of the Goodyear company,
which was held on Wednesday of last
week in the big ballroom of the hotel
Alexandria.
"More than 500 men were present at
the li'ncheon," continued Mr. Marks,
including the biggest men in Southern
California, both as to brains and mon
ey, and when Seiberling appeared the
entire assembly arose as one man 'o
do him honor. When he arose to speak
he wa-i greeted with tumultous ap
plause, and his talk was punctuated
with the sort of applause that showed
that every man there realized what
the Goodyear plant means to Los An
geles and was glad to let him know
that it was nderstood.
"The reasons cited by Mr. Seiberling
for the selection of Los Angeles over
other coast points were impressive.
Water, plenty of pure water, was one
of them. Plenty of free labor was
another, a determining factor between
Los Angeles and San Francisco, and
the Goodyear company is. famous for
their care of their employes and the
contented men they keep in sonse
quence. Cheap power was another
determining factor, another thing be
sides water that we must have in Ari
zona, and that we will have if the
reclamation projects now being pushed
are trought to actual consummation.
"Th.- Goodyear plant at Los An
geles vnil have a capacity of 7,000 tires
daily, douhle the original plans, and
I havo no doubt that other tire manu
facturers will follow them. This
means better prices for a bigger pro
duction of Salt River Valley cotton,
and I carf see.no reason why this val
ley should not also have the mills to
weave ihe fabriss but we must have
cheap power and good water to get
them, rnd we must make the pioneers
of nw industries welcome and then
more welcome, and do all we can t.o
help them, for they help us.
Mr. Marks went to Los Angeles to
atteti'1- the semi-annual meetijg of the
trustees of the Fraternal Brotherhood,
of wnich he is a member, and while
there he was selected to represent the
Fraternal Brotherhood at the National
Fraternal Congress to be held August
26 to 29 in Detroit.

CONCERN
E LAX
S TO LIFE
The coffers of the state were en
riched $500 and the employes of the
State Corporation Commission put to
frenzied activity in answering telephone
calls and opening letters of inquiry
and all because The Republican printed
a story last Wednesday morning to the
effect that the commission was going
to take action against the multitude of
corporations in the state which had
been delinquent in filing their annual
reports and paying their annual fees
to the state.
"It is nothing short of phenomenal,"
said A. A. Betts, chairman of the cor
poration eommittion, to a Republican
epresentative yesterday. "The num
ner of people who read and heed
The Republican is nothing short of
phenomenal.
"In the Wednesday morning paper
you had a story stating just what the
corporation commission is going to do
in the matter of corporations that are
in . arrears with their annual reports
and annual registration fees, and be
fore night more than Jj00 had been
paid in by delinquent concerns. Nor
was that all. The telephone rang all
day in the matter, letters began to pour
in within J2 hours after the story ap
peared in print in fact, it is quite im-
; possible to estimate the benefit to the
! state in a financial way and to the
j various corporations in the matter of
j getting into a healthy legal condition
j that this one story in The Republican
i has done.
"You may say, however, that the
j commission is going right ahead along
I the line your paper stated. We are pre
j paring the notices to be sent out to all
the delinquent corporations, some
30.000 of them, and C. M. Gandy, as
sistant attorney general, is preparing
the form of complaint to be used in
the dissolution suits against those who
do not comply with the law.
"To be sure we cannot file 30,000
suits in one court: no court could
handle them, so we will be compelled lo
file them in every county in the state
against the corporations in the various
counties which have not or do not soon
comply with the law. My only regret
Is that the money derived from com
pelling these corporations to comply
with the law will not enable the cor
poration commission to broaden out
and more adequately cover its field, for
this money goes into the general fund,
not Into the fund for the use of the
commission.

Republican A. P. Leased Wire
GILMER, Tex.. July 24. Gilmer was
quiet tonight after a night and day of
intense excitement brought about by
the attack yesterday on a white wo
man, and the lynching today at the
courthouse square of Chilton Jen
nings, young negro, for the crime, after
he was identified and had confessed.
Jennings was captured by a sheriffs
posse early' today three miles from
Gilmer after an all night search. He
was placed in Jail at noon. A mob soon
gathered and with the aid of sledge
hammers, broke the steel doors of the
jail.
Just as the negro was brought out
and a rope placed about his neck, a
man on horseback approached and was
handed the other end of the rope. He
galloped away, dragging the negro
several blocks to the courthouse
square. Jennings was then hanged.
In a few minutes the crowd dispersed
leaving the body hanging. It was cut
down at 4 o'clock this afternoon.
The woman is in a critical condition.
