THE COLLEGE SOCIAL LIFE

The correct ideas, theoretically, may be well known, and yet the application of them be lost or ignored. Ii is to ar ticulate hls every day life with the so- ciology, the ethics, the philosophy which he studies tat should, by all means, equal ly with his class work, be tho care of q faculty. Not that such is possible by means of given rules and regulations those would in all probability be nm drance-but that advice and guidance ana cooperation should be afforded by those in authority i'll all matters appertaining to the life of the student. As suggest ed above he learns many valuable les sons and forms many correct conclusions as to hunan nature and life in general unaided during his educational course, yet he may not then know their value, he may not appreciate the soundness oi his own reasoning Let him then realize that what is true here with his college mates in such matters, is true with men in the larger world; that human nature is pretty much the same in grown up boys as it Is in te boys themselves.
 Now perhaps there is no more approved method Of getting the best results in ev- cry respect from boys than by eliciting as muen effort as possible from them selves, and by lending some character and dignity to these efforts. College life is muay sided enough to lend ample op- portunity for excellent training for get ting along in the world. sf in the various orga niza.lons, the Social, the business, the moral life and the pleasures that compose it, care is taken that correct rrIpclples and ideals exist-that the pol lev of this preparatory commonwealth is

And since it is true that certain very large lessons are learned in human nature, and there is oppor- tunity fo~ so many more to be learned and deeply impressed through this socidi experience. it follows that a proportion ate amount of attention should be direct ed toward this phase of the students life by thoss setting themselves to the ascar- tainmenc of the best educational poltci,s for institutes and colleges.
 Unrestrained and undrected it Is often the case that erroneous and injurious ideas and ideals prevail to such an extent in given universities and colleges. that 1t lis impossible for a student to come In contact with their life without beng seriously Influenced against his good The college man lays great stress on what h. acquires and learns at his alma mater, and the opinions of outsiders and espe- eially the uneducated. however well based in reason they may be, are not often se- rlously considered. It is the impending danger of building up a false idea Of citizenship that has prompted President Woodrow Wilson of Princeton, he tells us to take some radical steps in the regulation of the student life at his instl tuition.

 MT. President: The Master once had to select a man 10 lead the children of Israel out of Egypt and through the will derness to Canaan He did not select an orator. No; he selected one of these men from Maine or Iowa. and his name was Moses. And he was a stuttering man, too. But Moses told His Master to Hts face that he could not do il. because he could not speak to the people.

All these orators will do the same thing-the last one of them. We saw an instance of it yester- day afternoon.
 He was 76 when he got 10 the senate. but he gained the respect of all his asso- clates in that body for the strength of his intellect, the loftiness of his charac- ter. and the extent of his learning Had he been bred to parlament as Sherman was. he would have attained to the very front rank. Even as it was he reminded the senate of the giants of the old order of that old south that produced Davis and Toombs. Mason and Stephens, Brecken- ridge and Hammond
 He has gone from the walks of men. but Alabama. the south and the Union will not forget to honor the man and revere his memory. He is gathered to his fathers and assigned a home with honest men in a place better than this.

Hopkins, one of the heavy in the Arizona Copper company, are rejoicing over his future appointment to the office of president of the largest copper com pany in this district. MT. Hopkins has not yet been officially appointed, but it is announced by the company that ne will be the man. Like MT. Colquhoun, J. G. Hopkins is a mag who does things and people who are in a position to know are of the opin- ion that the new president will make many immediate changes in the operation of the works and mines. A more popular man could not have been selected to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of Mr. Colquhoun. MT. Hopkins was one ot the old stockholders who ventured on the future of the A. C.. company when others predicted a dismal failure.
 His business ability and vast ex perience thoroughly qualities MT Hopkins for the position to which he has been assigned.

COPPER and copper stocks have declined several points during the past few days, which is any thing but encouraging to the companies that have maintained normal outputs, rather than close down to any great extent. The companies in the Cliff Morenci district, although they have been compelled to cut wages, have maintained forces as much as possible, no doubt with the hope that present prices will not continue any great length of time. Every citizen in this district should appreciate the fact that this section has suffered less than any other mining camp in Ari- zona and today is in better condition than the most of them. This district has always operated on the "slow but sure" plan and in times of sudden reverses naturally suffers less depres- sion than other camps that ride on boom waves. This district has passed through enough floods the past four or five. years to put any town out ot business but it has always weathered the storm and came out with flying colors. So will it pull through the present temporary lull, principally for the reason that the town is laid on a foundation that cannot be shaken. Bank failures and bushes: failures are of daily occurrence ir other camps and cities, but Clifton has her first failure to report.

TIE Solomonville correspondent to the Globe Belt made sickly mess of it last week in reporting the labor trouble in this district. The cor respnadent must either have been mis- informed or had no regard for the truth, The article stated that big strike was.an. involving all mechanics and smeltermen employed by. the Arizona Copper company. As stated in the ERA last week all mechanics were discharged amd extended an in- vitation to go to work at reduction of three cents peri hour, which they re- fused to accept. That is the plain facts in the case. There is no trou- ble in the shelter or other depart ments of the works of either com pany except mechanics, and thirty five instead ot several hundred men are inVolged in the matter. The same article also stated that Sheriff Anderson had been called to Clifton to prevent trouble, when as matter of fact Mir. Anderson made a trip to Clifton to make arrangements for a short hunting expedition into the mouutaius

The staging broke and he was precipitated to the ground. He landed on his head, receiving a fracture ot the skull, which resulted in death several hours later. The funeral occurred on Saturday before last.

J.C. Gatti, who is conducting one of the leading meat markets in Globe, spent few days of last week in Clifton on business. MT. Gatti re- ports that his business is in a flourish ing condition, but says that many ot the business men of Globe are dis couraged The closing of two of the banking institutions of that city has greatly effected many of the people. The failure of the banks, together with curtailment of mining oper- ations is a situation anything but pleasant to face. However, it is rumored that men are being put on again and the temporary furry will soon settle down. MT. Gatti is a former resident of Clifton, having weathered many floods and other reverses, and says the present little trouble only makes life a little more interesting for him.

Damage Suits Against D. (. Co.

On the 3rd of this month thirty-five cases were filed in the district court the D. c. company by the citizens of Chase creek who sustained heavy losess by the breaking of the company's tailings dam year ago. By continuing the trial of the Forbes case the company has saved several thousand dollars, as the cases filed represent total of S135, 900 while the original claim was about S2OO, ,OOO. The decrease in the number of cases filed was caused by some of the people not being able to raise the ex- pense money and others have left the country.
 That those who fight the case will win there is little doubt, as the con- pany can never convince a judge or a jury that it is not responsible for the damage claimed. It required de- posit of 5000 with the clerk for each case filed and the thirty-five people who paid the fee remitted with post office money order. This fee will be remitted if the people get judgment against the company.

Clifton Hunters in Trouble.

It will be reme mbered that the ERA a hunting party a couple of weeks ago in which it was stated that Frank Laine killed a bear. The bear story was correct, but the other two members of the party were not given the credit of killing any game. The other members of the party were B. l.. H. Forbes and R. K. Minson, both we'll known citizens of Clifton. The ERA has it upon good authority that these two gentlemen made a big haul. They ran into a bunch of wild pigs and kept up the fire until they killed nine pigs and the mother. They knew the pigs were wild be- cause they ran to get away. Well, the pigs were dressed and when MT. Laine inspected them he informed the boys that they had killed bunch of tame hogs. The big skinning took place, after which the boys drove into the Fraser Bros. camp, put up a couple of the pigs and in- yi.ed the boys of the camp to feast upon what later proved to be their own property. After the hunters left the camp the Fraser boys decided to make a search for the old SOW and pigs with the result that she was found in canyon riddled with bull lets. The hunters were stopped at Duncan and a settlement took place and the boys were permitted tc journey home. The joke was d good one on the hunters. Those pigs brought good price.
