AN OLD TIME DRINK.
Refreshing Switched and the Way II
Used to Be Made.


They don't make it nowadays-not
mostly. But they used to make it
years ago, and how good it was! The
corn lot had to be cultivated. and it
was long way from the house. and it
was very hot up there on the hillside
When they loaded the cultivator and
the hoes and spades on the stone boat
and hitched the two horses to that dry
ground vessel. they slowed away as
part of the cargo a big stone jug. And
when the corn lot was reached the jug
was slowed away in n shady fence
corner under the butternut tree and
covered over with grass TO keep il
cool. What was in the jug? Switched.
1t was made of vinegar, molasses, gin
ger and water. The water was drawn
from the spring beside the kitchen and
was as cold as ice could have made il.
And the stone jug kept it cold. The
vinegar gave it pleasant acidity. the
ginger little ''tang" that's what they
called it up in the country'-and the
molasses Just sweetened it bit. And
how good it was to go over into the
fence corner and take few swallows
out Of that jug of switched!
Come on, let's go and get a glass Of
ice cream soda. 1t will be somewhere
about the hundredth part as good as a
draft of switched out of that stone jug
in the fence corner in the corn lot up
in the country Observer.

PROGRESS OF SOUTHERN COUNTRY.

While We are all jubilating over the general prosperity of Arizona and the rapid increase in the wealth of the territory we should not overlook the fact that to the south of Arizona, in the states of Sonora and Chihuahua, equal rapid strides are being made in the path of progress. Great indus trial activity is noted in both these states. The well known mineral wealth of Sonora has, during the past few years, attracted large amounts of capital in the hands of energetic men to many districts and almost without exception where development work has been undertaken most grati. flying success has been attained. In Sonora, Cananea is the most import. ant camp because of the great amount of work being done there and because of the marvellous success of Colonel Greene, its founder. While Cananea has distanced all mining camps in the south in rapid growth work now go
 ing on there is for even greater ad yancement in the future The Greene company has planned an enormous plant which will call for practically double the number of men for its ope
 ration and supplying it with ore.
 At Nacozari preparations are being made for great increase in the copper product of that camp. The Moctezu

ma Copper company is now building 10OO-ton eoncentrator. In that vi- cinity number of companies are car rying on development work and there are many who believe that the Naco- zari district is the equal of Cananea as copper country.
 Besides the copper deposits in So- nora there are silver and gold dis i. tricts from which the precious metals are coming in increasing quantities.
 It is the well known mineral wealth of the state which has attracted the attention of the railroad builders, who are always quick to see coming indus trial prosperity in every new and un- developed country. Both Sonora and Chihuahua have been traversed in ey- cry direction by railroad surveyors and now lines have been marked which will bring every known re source of these two states into active | development should railroad construc- tion follow in the wake of railroad To, cation.
 The state of Sonora is as rich, if not richer. in agricultural possibili. ties than in mineral. It has thous. ands upon thousands of acres of fer. l tile land, with abundance of water for

WESTERN FEDERATION AND LEGITIMATE UNIoNISM.

Douglas International-America Organizers for the western Fedora. ton of Miners are in the city for the avowed purpose of organizing Doug las and establishing themselves among the smeltermen.
 There has been a great deal of ad- verse criticism of this organization, some of which, based on facts, is de served. This criticism has been based not so much on the principles of the organization but on the methods il has employed and the schism it has advocated
 The companies here will refuse to recognize this body of men as an or ganization, and in this they will have the support of most all of the substan- tial business men of the city.
 With the position of the organizers, the companies and the business men known, only the men remain to be heard from.
 It is to them that this heart-tO- heart talk is addressed.
 Who is asking you to join their or ganization?
 The Western Federation of Miners. What is the Western Federation of Miners
 It is an organization which at the recent Denver convention practically lost its identity with labor and com mitted itself almost solely to poli- tics.
 To what breed of politics?
 To socialism, which means the doc Urine of discontent-a doctrine that the great body of American working men-those in the American Fedora tieu of or-diseountenance.
 Is there any doubt of this?
 Then let the federation's preamble speak for itself:
 We hold that there is class strug- gle in society and that this struggle is caused by the economic conditions.
 We affirm the economic condition of the producer to be that he is ex- plotted of the wealth he produces, be ing allowed barely sufficient for his elementary necessities.
 We hold that the class struggle will continue until the producer is recognized as the sole master of his product
 We assert that the working class and it alone can and must achieve its own emancipation.
 We hold, finally. that an industrial and concerted political action of all wage workers is the only method of attaining this end"
 What is the object of legitimate la bor unionismg
 To secure better wages. better hours and better conditions of life generally. thus promoting conditions under which employer and employed can be at peace.
 Is there anything in the fedora tons preamble that tends towards the end desired?
 There is not, for when the fedora

 Chihuahua also has agricultural re sources, though it's mineral and tim Der resources are the most prominent in development now and it is these great industries which will be more directly tributary to Arizona by the completion of the proposed Southern Pacific and Greene railroads.

over your wrongs and knows but the one desire, to benefit your condi- tions?
 Honestly, do you really believe they are actuated by pure and sincere mo tives?
 On the other hand, doesn't it strike you that the organizers and agitators are actuated more by petit revenge and malice?

ton says it is impossible 10 promote friendly and peaeeable condition" be- tween employers and employed under present conditions, that alone pre- vents the accomplishment of the aims of legitimate unionism, for the social mitted itself is impossible in Ameri- ca.
 In the matter of their principles, then. what betterment will the West ern Federation bring about
 None.
 Win it better conditions otherwise?
 The wages paid here are the best; the men work eight hours The an- swer is, then, it win not.
 If it will not better conditions win it make them worse?
 It will. If the men walk out they will go out with the full knowedge that they have no chance of receiv- ing recognition; therefore. there will be no chance for them 10 return to work here. They win lose their posi- tions Many, of course, will not care for that. but there are hundreds here with homes and families who will look at the question differently. It will be a grave matter with them, and at the same time, if they imperil their families by walking out, they will realize that they are doing it without cause. It may result in the smelters shutting down. or the supplanting of the present skilled and well pad la bor with cheap labor.
 Now. since it is clear the men will not better conditions by striking, but on the other hand will do them selves and the common good great great harm. will they obey the sum mons of the agitators?
 We do not believe they will-in numbers. ...
 Should a person, in reality not in sympathy with those who are stirring up trouble, feel that he must strike for fear of being denounced by the trouble breeders?
 That all depends. The membership of the Western Federation of Labor is as a drop in the bucket as com pared to the great representative la bor body-the American Federation who are at war, practically, with one another. The larger body con fines itself 10 betterment of the condi- tions of its membership largely by legislation. Arbitration is favored and the strike is seldom. It denounces socialistic principles and anarchistic methods. Could a member of that great body of laborers or anyone in sympathy with it be called a 'scab" when he refuses to bow to the die tates of a socialistic organization with whom he is theoretically at war? He could not: therefore he should have no compunctions in refusing to obey the strike call of the socialists.
 Who of the smeltermen asked that the Western Federation come in here to take them under its wings?
 None whom We know of. Who did, then?
 The organizers and agitators. Now, really, smeltermen, do you think for a minute that anyone of them has a great swelling heart that is full of anguish at your alleged suf- ferings, that weeps for you and that in the stiIIy hours of the night pores
