I'm degrees, and that there was one par

Then he stated what that sin is, quoting
as the only authority the words of the
Saviour himself. When Christ had cast
the devil out OF the man who was Dotn

At night the text was taken from the

THE NAVAJO INDIANS.

The Navajo Indians are a serious problem to the counties adjoining their reservation. They graze their stock on the adjacent land, much to the detriment of the stock grower, and the Navajo has the advantage of the white man, inasmuch as he is protected by the Government in his encroachment, and he manages to escape all taxation. An effort is now being made to collect taxes on all stock owned by the Indians and found running in Coconino county. Just why the property of the Navajo Indians should escape taxation is a query that none of our county officials care to answer.
 The policy of the Government to- wards the Indians must change, even if it is necessary to abrogate existing treaties. There are only two possible fateS for the Indian-civilization or extermination, and the policy now pur- sued by the Government will surely lead to the latter.

Why should this settle or materially affect the subject of so called woman's rightsP Would not this very inferiority be a reason why every advantage should be given to the weaker sex, not only for its own good, but for the highest de- velOpment of the race?
