A FEW WEEKS MORE.

Within few weeks the Republican
platform makers will meet in Chi
cago, and then listen for a set of fair
promises to the American voter. In
1908 they promised to revise the tar
iff if only the people would elect Mr..
Taft. Mr.. Taft as elected by the
Republicans. Was the promise kept
MIR. Taft identified himself with the
enemies of tariff revision. and went
further and tried to kick out of the
party the very men who did their best
to redeem the party's pledge. In
1910 the Democrats, In power in the
House, tried to pass a tariff dill in

change from one to the other could
DC made quickly. However this may
be. there seems to be little doubt
that traction enignes for hauling on
the roads will come more and more
into use where grades, etc., will per-
nit.
Somebody will say that we are
talking against the farmers and
owners TO teams. Many farmers and
others will think that because they
are tax payers of the community
through which the road is building.
that therefore their teams should be
given employment at large daily
price. This is no part of the consider
alton. The best and cheapest methods
should be used. # teams must be
hired at 81 per day, let the farmers
have the jobs, other things being
equal. If traction engines are avail
able and cheaper and faster, then let
the engines be used, and the farmers
keep their teams blowing and making
corn. The taxpayers demand that
their money shall be spent where and
how it will do the most good and best
work in the shortest time. AS we sec
1T now, the engine idea is the thing.
Figures, from an actual experiment,
show that to run traction engine
costs per day about SIG, which in
cludes everything insurance, inter
est on investment, wear and tear. and
about SD for us eless boss. This en-
CINE delivers during day of 10
hours, 62 yards of material, at a cost
of 26 cents per yard. To deliver 62
yards of material, the same distance,
would require ii teams at Sd. 90 per
day-$56 or 80 cents a yard. Admit
ting that the above estimate is only
partially correct, the evidence seems
to favor the traction engine, that is,
on roads where the traction engine
can be used at all.

Certainly this IS cheap enough. In

such Christians as these, if, indeed,
they are Christians except in name.
cannot complain of the cost of their
church membership. And yet it may
be that they are paying for what they
get. and getting value received for
their money. Most people, vino have
any just claim to respcctabiity, are
willing to pay for what they get, and
willing always to pay good prices for

church members are perhaps paying
abou i; proper amount for what they
are getting. They are paying little
or nothing and getting the same.
True. religion cannot be weighed in
pounds or tons or measured by the
yard stick or the surveyors chain.
1t is limitIess and unreasonable by
all human standards. but still, it is
true, that the man who gives little
gives evidence almost unmistakable,
that he Is getting but little, and
equally true it is, that as rule, the
churchman of the largest sacrifices and
gifts and widest benevolence gives
equally unmistakable evidence, that
he is getting much in rc,..n.
Freely and literally receiving
means freely and literally in giving.
And so, the 25-cent fellow should be
borne with kindly. He is doing all he

CONVENTION NEXT WEEK.

The county convention meets next
Tuesday to elect delegates to the
State convention in Norfolk, which
convention will send delegates to Bal
timore to nominate candidate tor
President of the United States. Too
much stress cannot be put upon the
momentous Importance of the action
these conventions shall take. If the
right steps are taken, right men
nominated in the right way, the
election of Democratic ticket next
November is assured. If the politi-
clans are put in the front; if men
who have axes to grind and selfish
ends to be accomplished, the Demo-
Gratis may throw away their great OPP
portunity and go down in defeat. The
convention In Norfolk will be COM
posed of delegates from the counties
and cities of the State, and each
county and city should send men to
Norfolk with definite end in view
as far as this is possible to be done.
The fight in the county convention
here next Tuesday, if there is
fight, will be over the question of
instruction of the delegates to Nor
folk. There is some division among
the leaders on the question. There
are few Democrats who favor Har-
mon; some few who favor Under
wood-the majority are largely in
favor of Wilson or Clark, either of
whom will be acceptable as cand-
date for the Presidency. There can
be no question as to the sentiment of
the Democrats of this county and
State and the entire South as well,
being overwhelmingly in favor of a
Progressive Democrat candidate, and
against reactionary. AS between
Harmon and Underwood, Wilson and
Clark, there seems no sort of doubt
that the overwhelming majority of
the Democrats of the country favor
the latter. AS to which of the tv o
last named, there is small choice.
What, under the circumstances, should
the Democrats, in convention assem-
bled next Tuesday, declare? Certain
ly in favor of a Progressive Demo-
cratic candidate. And this means
either Wilson or Clark. If the con-
vention is unable to decide between
these gentlemen, the only thing to
do, so far as our short sight can see,
is to declare in favor of the strongest
of these two. A delegation, entirely
foot-loose and at sea should not be
sent to Norfolk, nor from this State
to Baltimore. And this means, too,
that a Progressive" delegation to
should be sent to Norfolk delepa-
ion favoring the sending of a Pro-
gressive delegation to Baltimore. We
stick to it, that as between Wilson
and Clark, we are unable to decide
which one of the two we would rath-
er have.
We are willing to follow MIR. Bryan.
the greatest and wisest Democrat in
the United States, without whose in
fiuence and help no candidate can be
nominated or elected if nominated.
and up to this writing. so far as we
have seen, he has gone no further
than to say, that either Wilson O,
Clark will be acceptable to him, ant
farther than this it seems to us now
the Democrats cam OF 60 next Tues
day. Let this be the slogan mex
Tuesday: ga solid, united and Pro
gressive delegation to Norfolk. in
structed for a Progressive, united
delegation to Baltimore, instructed
for Progressive candidate for the
Presidency. -

Mohave County miner., 1912-06-08

The big dike that was designed to protect large acreage of lands along the Colorado river in the Mohave valley, has gone out by the rush of waters from the rlver and large loss has been sustained by the farmers, whose crops were about ready for the harvest. It is probable that the breaking of the dike has been in measure the mears of saving great property loss at Needles. The town was being encroached upon by the rising waters, but it is understood that the level of the river had fallen when the dike broke and is now about two feet below the former high level. The men at the head of the reclaima- tion of the Mohaye Valley lands will suffer a large loss if they are unable to cope with flood conditions along the Colorado river, as the value of the lands depend entirely upon the ability of the company to prevent an overflow.

Tabooing Tribal Marriages.

Among the June weddings that Clerk of the Superior Court, where Cupid reigns, was that of Kate Croz- fer, Wallapai Indian of more than ordinary intelligence, and Fannie Beecher. Kate and Fannie had long been married according to the custom of the Wallapais, but Kate began to emass some property. and believing that the disintegration of the tribal relations of the Wallapai tribe was near at hand, and that the children might be done out of the property in the event of his death, he concluded to legitimatize these children so that they might inherit the. property with out question. Rev. w. G. Blakely performed the ceremony Thursday last and Mr and Mrs. Kate Crozier de- parted to their home at Nelson su- premely happy.
 The marriage custom of the Walla pals is rather simple. the bride usually having no say in the matter. The groom to be approaches the parents of the young lady he would fain make his bride and after considerable haggling price would be agreed upon and the d lugh,er would be sent over to the teepe of her purchaser. While some of the young squaws would rebel against the sale they usually had to conform to the custom. The sguaws are sold when very young, the ruling age being less than twelve years. The price ranges from .30OS for prin- cesses of the blood to few dollars, or horse or blanket for less favored girls. In only few instances do the Indians go outside of their own tribe for bride, as this custom has been drowned down upon by the matchmak- jog mothers, and especially as the in- tercourse of the tribe is very limited, and the opportunity is not given the younger members to get acquainted with the desirable young women of another nation of Indians, although they may reside within hundred miles or less from each other.
 To illustrate the providence of some of the Indians, Kate Crozier offered Tn payment of his marriage license a sos government check, and when the of. hcial was unable to handle such a large sum the blushing bride was called upon and brought up from the depth of one logging the needful amount.
