The Horses Prayer

To Thee, my Master, | offer my
prayer: Feed me, water and care for
me, and, when the days work is
done, provide me with shelter, a
clean dry bed and stall wide enough
for me to lie down in comfort.
Always be kind to me. Talk to
me. Your voice often means as
much to me as the reins. Pet me
sometimes, that | may serve you the
more gladly and learn to love you.
Do not jerk the reins, and do not
whip me when going up hill. Never
strike, beat or kick me when |
do not understand what you want,
but give me a chance to understand
you. Watch me, and if | fail to do
your bidding, see if something is
not wrong with my harness or feet.
Do not check me so | cannot have
the free use of my head. If you
insist that l wear binders, so that l
cannot see behind me as it was in
tended / should, l pray you be care
full that the binders stand well out
from my eyes.
Do not overload me, or hitch me
where water will drip on me.
Keep me well shod. Examine my
teeth when | do not eat, | might
have an liberated tooth, and that,
you know, is very painful. Do not
tie my head in an unnatural position,
or take away my best defense
against flies and mosquitoes by cut
ting off my tail,
Icannot tell you when am thirsty,
so give me some cool water often.
Save me, by all means in your power,
from the fatal disease-the gland
ers, | cannot tell you in words
when am sick, so watch me, that
by signs you may know my condition.
Give me all possible shelter from
the hot sun, and put a blanket on
me, not when | am working, but
when | am standing in the cold.
Never put frosty bit in my mouth;
first warm it by holding it a motnent
in your hands.
try to carry you and your bur-
dens without a murmur, and wait
patiently for you long hours of the
day or night. Without the power
to choose my shoes or my path, |
sometimes fall on the hard pave
ments which l have often prayed
might not be of wood but of such a
nature as to give me safe, and
sure footing. Remember that
must be ready at any moment to
lose my life in your service.
And finally, o my Master, when
my useful strength is gone, do not
turn me out to starve or freeze, or
sell me to some cruel owner, to be
slowly tortured and starved to death;
but do Thou, my Master, take my
life in, the kindest way, and your
God will reward you here and her e.
after. You will not consider me ir-
reverent if ask this in the name
of Him who was born in a Stable

THE MINING CONGRESS
Convention Will Be Held this
Year at Los Angeles,
Sept. rs to Oct. lst

Los ANGELES, June 24--What is
believed will prove the most intense
pre-convention campaign of the
American Mining Congress has been
begun in this city, although that
national mining organization does
not meet until September 26. 1t
will remain in session until October
l, making an entire week of con-
vention.
The convention this year is being
exploited by the Sierra Madre club,
an organization of a social char
acter, composed entirely of large
mining and oil men from all por-
tions of the United States. A spec
ial committee has been appointed
to assume complete charge of the
convention details and extensive Of
fees have been opened in the Colum-
bia Trust building, the top floor of
which is occupied by the Sierra
Madre club, and staff of assistants
installed.
Three thousand for 1910" is the
slogan adopted by the club boosters
indicating the high hopes they hold
regarding the probable attendance
and an energetic campaign will be
prosecuted to effect this result.
One thing which will make for
greater attendance this year than
ever before in the history of the
American Mining Congress will be
the addition of the oil men to the
ranks of the membership, none but
metal and coal operators and smelt-
ing men having previously been
identified with it.
Special excursions are already be-
ing planned by a representative
delegation of oil men from this city
to many of the most important oil
fields of the Southwest with a view
to enlisting the cooperation of this
new branch and to arrange for the
oil mems attendance at the Con-
gress.
The greatest hopes for a record
attendance, however, lies in the fact
that the American Mining Con-
gress, after three years of hard
struggle has induced the passage of
a bill in Washington providing for
a Federal Bureau of Mines, which
means governmental recognition of
mining after years of virtual neg
lect of the subject.
By this victory, in the face of
determined opposition on the part
of powerful forces which did not
want to see mining pass beyond the
control of the Geological Survey,
the Mining Congress has proven
that it has finally become a power
in national legislation and it's men,
bers generally now realize that it
will only take one more determined
effort to secure fullest recognition.
This effort will crystalize at the
coming mining convention.

JUNE "a. 1910.
STATEHOOD


The passage by Congress of the
Statehood bill has been accomplished
at last. The struggle of the past
twenty years to throw off the bond
age and restrictions imposed by a
territorial form of government is
ended, and the people of Arizona
are now to have a voice in national
affairs.
The first thing to be accomplished
in the making of the new State is
the constitutional convention which
will be called for the purpose of
making the laws that will be ac-
ceptable to the people of Arizona
as we'll as to the congress and Pres
ident Taft.
The fears of President Taft that
the people of Arizona are inclined
toward radicalism and cannot be
trusted to make their own consti-
tuition are groundless and not found
ed on facts.
1t was not radicalism that allowed
the education qualification to be-
come law on the statute books of
Arizona, but rather it was that
higher sense of patriotic duty to see
that the conditions which bring dis
grace in other localities, where no
restrictions are placed on voters,
where corruption and lawlessness
prevail by reason of the strength of
an organization owing it's existence
and influence to disreputable meth
ods and membership composed of
the lowest order of ignorant citi-
zenship, shall not exist in Arizona.
This great reform, which was Bit
terly condemned by President Taft
as vicious" is just the kind of re-
form that is badly needed all over
the country and especially in the
larger cities, to prevent the control
of elections by corrupt practices,
and Arizona was far in the lead
when she undertook to make a law
that would deprive powerful agents
of the power to control public offices.
There is no doubt in our mind
but that the people of Arizona are
safe and sane, and able under all
circumstances to construct consti-
tuition for Arizona that Arizona peo-
pie can live under; a constitution
that will be superior to any. yet
made by any State in the Union.
AS to the political complexion of
the constitutional convention, we
believe that the interests of the
people will best be conserved if that
convention is controlled by dem
ocracy.
The constitutional convention
should not be Legislative body. 1t
should convene for the sole purpose
of providing the fundamental laws
under which the people of Arizona
will live, such laws as will give a
full guarantee of all the rights of
citizenship to those within it's bord-
ers, and in order to accomplish a
wise and beneficial constitution only
the very best men in Arizona, those
who have the interests of the peo-
pie at heart and are free from all
corporate influence, should be chos-
en- as delegates to the constitutional
convention.
