Food for Thought.
From the Tucson star.l

The present condition of labor throughout the country, the many strikes now prevalent, and the rapid capitalization of wealth, and the mus ual amount of legislation recently enacted in the interest of trusts. will give the Labor Day orators, many sub lects, rich in thought for discussion on that accasion. It is to be hoped, the day will be utilized in discussing. and pointing out remedies, for the unfortu- nate conditions which obtain between labor and capital, for in a land of pleu- ty, where we have an abundance of wheat, corn and cattle, there should not be so much suffering, if right and equity prevailed, as it should. Where is so much friction, so much strife. so many strikes, So many thousands beg ging for labor that they may live, there is something radically wrong. There IS lack of equity. there is a lack of justice. For where there is plenty, and righteousness rules there is peace. The fact is, thousands of the toiling masses are more to be pitied than was the black man in slavery, for the slave mas ter at least fed, clothed and cared for his black slaves. in health as well as in sickness. This is much more than can be said of tens of thousands of toilers, who are crying for food, in this land of plenty, others often pampsred, and over fed, which breeds disease and early death, such conditions, in which
 one part of the people are dying of starvation and the other from over eat ing or giuttony is wrong. The cause, and the remedy should interest and
 engage the best thought of the land, If our industrial conditions are to rise to the highest state of perfection, and the government is to enjoy it's greatest strength and length of days. Here is fruitful field for honest and patriotic thought and discussion on the occasion of the anniversary of the Labor Day.

Ancient Relies.
From the Phoenix Gazette.l


 Frank Phillips is in possession oi sev- eral interesting relics which he un- earthed recently in an old Aztec rum on the Verde river. He was digging Tn one of the rooms of the ruins and at n denth of nine feet he found several ollas. some of which contained wheat chaff blackened with age. In one ola was found perfectly carved quail in nallapai rock and a ball of woolen yarn. He has the relics still in his possession and is willing to take oath that he found the yarn in the olla. Ii such IS the case then the Aztecs were race of people who were not only intelligent, but were familiar with the art of spin ming. The relics bear every evidence of antiquity and that they were not placed there in recent years was mani fest by the condition of the cement flooring of the room. The cement was four inches through, and then it was comparatively easy work to excavate. Human bones were also found, and one of the ollas unearthed was fully three feet in diameter.

AND the people were suffering much from lack of water for irrigating when the wise man came from his province of Arizola and became the receiver of the canal and said I will furnish you with water, clean the sand from your canal, fill your reservoir and build your dams so that when they are builded even centuries of time will not avail to wash them away. And time passed and the people murmured, for the canal was not cleaned of sand, nay, not so much as a calabasas ladle would hold, the reservoir was not filled and the dam was not built, and the crops were burn ing up, the murmur became a roar and finally the multitude came forth as one man, and marched in platoons and regi- ments against the wise man and smote him hip and thigh with testimony che erful, interesting testimony of the greatness of their crops, their immense profits, and damned the dam and the wise man, and the wise man resigned( ?, and the people irrigated.
The Florence tribune., 1897-08-28

THE removal Of George W. Sanders as receiver of the Canal company by Judge Davis upon the application of the farmers is another exemplification of the proposition that no man, how ever high fn official position, can ride rough-shod over the rights of indiyid- ual who are placed under him without lowering himself, not only in the es- timation of the people, but in his own estimation, the later only if he has a mind capable of estimating himself and his position. The lesson is usually dearly and not often taught but when it is, its force is such as to cause people to wonder why any man should be so unfair, arbitrary and regardless of the rights and liberties given to the people under the constitution as to place him. self in such an unenviable position. It is to be hoped that under the new management all will be able to pull together first for the advancement of the County's interests and second for the advancement of the interests of the individuals.
