posed to capital, only because it is capital, any more than he should be opposed to physical force. But every man should be opposed to the abuses of capital just as every man shoulI be opposed to the abuses, by man, of physical force. It is inevitable. La bor must lead the way in the light, and upon that leadership depends the veal or woe of humanity"
 'Udder our declaration of independ- ence, under the Constitution of the United States, under the free instittl- tions of our government. As inteded and interpreted by those who wrote and adopted them. Down to the day when law and life and liberty be- came purchaSa sable with dollars, the man who earned his bread in the sweat of his face was the equal in right and at the ballot box of the man hour upon the floor of the exchange. Not so today
 A new system has grown to full ma [ turity of strength in this country by which it is possible for bread, meat, clothing and the other necessities of life may become artif1cially and arbi- trarily advanced to such a price that capital may feast sumptiously every day, robed in royal purple and fine 1lueu anu ldDOF SldTN0 duQ W6dr rags.'
 That capital, under a republican form of government. should possess such a power over labor more than any other crown head dare exercise over his most servile subject, is de- plorable, despizable, dangerous and damaging. It is disgraceful if not reasonable on the part of the capital ist class and base cowardice and the betrayal of a high trust committed to us, the common people"
 This system places before the masses an example of ostentatious, voluptuous and licentious luxury and has fixed false standard of conduct, morality and responsibility in the so- cial sphere of our people,
 The men and women, bearing the burden of humanity, have registered a reasonable and just protest against the tyranny of capital. But this pro- test has remained through years of toll, suffering and privation, private and public wrongs, until the burden has become unbearable''

can expecting the game to be played there or whether he got lost on his way to Clifton is mystery which Manager Saunders is as yet unable to solve. The game was hotly contested throughout and it was anybody's game up until the Sth inning when Morenci scored two runs on long hits by Woods, Robinson and Saunders, Cliff ton failing to score in their half. Jt is hoped that a few more games will be matched between these two teams this season as the rivalry is as keen as ever even though this was the first game between the two teams this esaSon.
 The celebration of Labor Day clos ed with a grand ball at the Armory. More than 150 couples attended and sixteen dance program with several extras interspersed was enjoyed by the dancers until one o'clock. During the evening cake and lemonade was served on the stage.
 During the afternoon the literary exercises included a song by Miss Elizabeth Stonehouse, who has been filling an engagement at the Empire, which was highly appreciated and Miss Stonehouse responded to an en- core.

The principal speaker of the day was B. E. Wall, Esq, who took fol his subject: Labor Must Lead the Way Into the Light" MT. Wall spoke for about twenty minutes and his re marks were given close attention and in conclusion was accorded enthusfas tic applause. We take the following brief extracts from his remarks: Tn America as well as throughout the civilized world humanity today is divided into two great opposing, if not antagOniStic, claSSeS-labor and capi tai. In this connection I mention la bor first with a purpose, for it stands first, in that it is the parent of capital the creator of all the wealth in com mercial use in the universe. The foundation upon which all human pro- gross rests is Labor. In numbers, in moral force, in potential political power, the labor class stands above the capitalist class"
 Both labor and capital are essen tial to human progress and material development. One is the necessary complement of the other, though eith CT may be abused by the other, either may be misused against the other Capital has right to combine, not in restraint of trade, not for monopoly not for oppression, but for legitimate
 uses and purposes. Labor has an equal right to organize to secure maintain, preserve and protect its rights
 What is known as the proletarian portion of our population, comprises the working class and the profession al class and presents more than 99 per cent of our total population and owns less than 30 per cent of the to tai wealth of this nation. This is in equitable and unjust, and is an evi dence of the existence of a system ol exploitation of labor, close kin to le galized robbery
 About two million children under sixteen years of age are working fol | the pitiful wages of about $3.25 pel
 week and more than 30,000,000 meI and women are working in order that | less than 1 per cent of our popula
 tion may live on lazy luxury Tine childhood of the land is improvised robbed of it's happy days of innocent enjoyment. And care-free hours o
 play and converted into money-mak l ing machines. Its blood is coined iii to dollars to make American heiresses to trade for foreign dude dukes.'' We claim this to be a government of people. Then we, the 99 per cent of the people are responsible for this outrage. The blood of these inno- cent children is upon our hands-yours and mine. This sin of this nation stains our SoulS.'
 "The administration of govern. ment which creates and fosters such system through law-law enacted interpreted and enforced at a cost not of thousands, not of millions, but of billions of dollars annually to the common people, is undemocratic, op pressive and destructive to our Repub lican institutions
 So it is with the labor class in America. It may become a gigantic engine of destruction of the rights of man under the law or properly it may rule with righteous purposes and bene- ficent results through representative government. No man should be op-

 tion of keen interest upon their part As a condition bearing upon the pros perity of labor MT. Hampton called at tention to the conservation policy of the government, as affecting Arizona, and called upon the workingmen of Arizona to enter their protest against it. The total area of Arizona is 72,- OOO,O00 acres. Of this area 15,OOO,- 900 is embraced in forest reserves; 4,- O00,0 in Indian reservations; l,OOO,- 900 acres have been withdrawn for coal, oil, and water power reserves. and 100000 acres are held by the state under act of congress. Accord ing to MT. Hampton, today there are 31 ,000, ,000 acres tied up and with drawn in Arizona from utilization by the people No country prosperS un- less the lands are in the hands of the people, said MT. Hampton, and wealth horded in the bosom of the earth is valueless." MT. Hampto cal led attention to the vast timber lands in Arizona in the hands of the feder- al government Mr Hampton made the statement that if these lands were in the hands of individuals, and sub- ject to assessment and taxation, the taxable wealth of Arizona would be in creased S150,000,000 and the withdraw al of this amount of asseSSable prop erty had placed an additional burden upon the taxpayers. MT. Hampton de preciated the fact that approximately S1 100000 went out of Greenlee coun- ty annually for the purchase of lumber and timber when right at our door is the largest tract of unbroken timber in the world.
 Prof O. HolvorSon was the next speaker introduced by Chairman Craw ford. Prof Holvorson chose as his subject: "A Plea for Education" :" We take the following extracts from his remarks:
 Emerson says Hitch your ideal to a star" and another place Not fail ure, but low aim is crime" Bacon says knowledge is power,' and know ledge is somewhat synonomous with education, for without education there would not be much knowledge. I am sorry to have to acknowledge that we live in an age and country in which money is valued above nearly everything else. We want short cuts to everything, as there are bogus schemes to get rich quick, so ther are schemes to .get educated quick, but all these have proved fail ures For there is no way of getting an education than the old, slow pro cess by constant application of dili- gent study. There is continual clamor for utilitarian subjects, such as commercial courses, domestic sci ence, and manual training. These in most cases, where they have been tried, have not proved of so great edu- cational value as at first proclaimed for them Education should be ac- quired more for the sake of culture and refinement than for the sake of money, personal gain or political in f1uence."
 Coming back to my subject, I'll state that a student with good edu- cational foundation is better able to handle himself among his fellow crea-

ponse to the public wish and toward a restoration to our former strength and dignity, based upon renewed public confidence"
 Labor, with it's shoulders long bent beneath an unfair burden, is assuming and upright posture and looking ahead instead of at the heels of it's proceed ing bearer. Labor is asserting, in type and in the voice of it's cham pions, that our declaration of inde- pendence and the constitution of the United States include the labor class as well as the capitalist class and de- mand the enactment of laws. eqal and equita ble, in their application, to those who toll and to those who live in idle luxury. Labor asks no unfair advantage. Labor asks for those rights only guaranteed to every Ameri can citizen, by the founders of this Republic. Labor demands that those unjust discriminations against Labor under the law, be abrogated. Labor pleads, in the language of William Jennings Bryan, that capital shall not press down upon the brow of labor a crown of thorns and shall not cruci- fly humanity upon cross of gold"
 We need the genius of constructive statesmanship of Thomas Jefferson, the stern stubborn courage and com mon sense or OlySeS GrdnC ana all Andrew Jackson, to resist and prevent for all time under the law of this land, the assumption and exercise of gov ernmental functions, by organized wealth.
 At the conclusion of the literary ex- ercises the Moose Band marched to the ball game between Clifton and Mo renci which was won by the Morenci team by a score of s to 6.
 The ball game on Labor Day be- tween Clifton and Morenci proved to be very exciting and resulted in a vic tory for Morenci by the score of to ! 6. Ross and Riley composed the bat tery for Clifton while Ferhman and Robison officiated in the same capa- city for Morenci. Ross for Clifton pitched a creditable game but the slug gers from the mile high town were too much for him. Ferhman on the other hand was hit quite freely how ever he frightened up in the pinches. When time was called for play at 3:30 D. m. Manager Saunders was minus Q pitcher, as Jones who started for Cliff ton sometime Sunday failed to make his appearance. Up to date it is not known what became of the big heaver, whether he walked on down to Dun

lures than is one who at once after having finished the eighth grade takes up a speciality or profession. I have nothing against commercial training, although I do not believe it works such wonders as is claimed for it, but believe that a good commercial train ing, after a more strictly academic one, will, in the long run be more profitable and more satisfactory to yer, doctor, or any other profession al man should have an academic training before he starts upon his SpecialtieS. 1 have in my classes used this expression, "A house built upon solid and firm foundation is better able to withstand the storms to which it is subjected than is one that is built on sand"
 T ask no questions as to a mans religion, his nationality or color, but I want him to be a man in the true sense of the word, to be tolerant to his fellow creatures, live decent home life, and pay his just debts. l believe these are the qualities of a gentleman, and are more or less ac- quired by education, not by riches nor by political influence. Here l have to offer a criticism on our public men running for office. You will remem- Der how MT. Taft was talked of by one who formerly was his best friend; l refer to MT. Roosevelt using every epithet he could ind to designate his contempt for his former friend, Taft. Now this may seem alright to some of you, but to me is is very nauseating, as it creates diSreSpect and diSobed- fence both to ones superiors and to the laws of the country. Something should be done to stop this infamous treatment of our public men, because so many of our people are weak and unstable, and waver and change at the first suggestion made by some crank or crook. A better education will strengthen character and make people more independent thinkers, so that they will not be swayed by the first wave which comes along. You have all seen men in positions of trust and influence, who by virtue of their ig- norance and inability are detrimental to both themselves and their environ ment. In this state our governor oc- casionally stays in the penitentiary over night and eats with the prison CTS in order to elevate the prisoners, presume, but I believe he is degrad- ing and cheapening his own dignity and office.
 f'To much expensive experimenting is now going on for the lack of compe- tence and education. Our legislature has become an experiment station for uneducated and inexperienced law makers, a condition which will be- come expensive and harmful to a new state Unselfish and better educated people should have the offices of trust and influence, and not minimizing and selfish men who are anxious to make name for themselves that they really forget why they were elected" "
 q cannot do better than close with Iben's lines in Per Gynt," ''one must be oneself; for oneself and ones own one must do the best, both in great and in small things. If the luck goes against you, at least you have the hon. or of life carried through in accord ance with principle"
