THE INDIAN OF TODAY.

The story of the band of Ute In dians who have taken to the noun tains at Cortez, Colorado, determin- ed not to deliver Big Rabbit to an swer to a murder charge, sounds like a leaf from an old newspaper
 When the Indians were living on the reservation in greasy idleness, the Indian problem seemed about to disappear by the extirpation of the Indian Had not the race had virility, it could never have with stood this degenerating life. Now that the Indian is forced to com pete with the white man, he holds his own numerically, mad makes a respectable showing industrially The corporations that employ the Apaches say they are the best Tabor obtainable.
 The up-to-date Indian is neither the flaming creature in war paint and feathers, nor the greasy beggar reaching a dirty palm to the tour ist.
 He may be one of the 391 Pine Ridge Indians who put up 6700 tons of hay for their stock in a season, or one of the 2OOO Sioux who at tended the last Episcopal convention at White Swan, s. D.
 When the Montana Crows were fed rations, they simply loafed Then a county fair was started. The first year not an Indian exhibited any agricultural product But the prizes appealed to their avarice and sporting blood. In three years they were showing 200 work animals. Mrs. Pretty Antelope, Takes-the- Gun, and others were displaying fine shows of vegetables.

TALKING ABOUT MONEY.

Senator Henry Cabot Lodge, in the January installment of his mem iors now running in a magazine, complains that one hears so much more talk about money nowadays. Formerly conversation literally be- sprinkled with dollar signs was con sidered coarse and vulgar. Now the cost of ones own and his neighbor's possessions is a golden theme talk ing the place of the flash of wit and the sunshine of good cheer.
 When young man goes away from the town, the first thing dis cussed is the pay he gets. If he comes back in few years, he tells his friends what salary he is getting by the time he is half way up from the railroad station. If his pay isn't worth telling about, he may not feel as if he dared to come back
 The man who gets his S5O00 or $l0,000 year never fails to give all the narrowing details of his success to the boys who stayed at home and have been drawing their SIS to S2O a week with philosophy and peace.
 Not that the cost of things must never be mentioned. Conversation would be priggish if this glittering thread of human interest were ab- sent. You may very properly swap exploits at bargain hunting with your neighbors. The $500 chair bought for S1.09 is a part of the great game of bucking the high price tiger The exchange of gos- sip across the back yard fence is a daily market report in many fam lilies. It gives the housewife valuable information in her daily struggle with the cost of living.
 Here are two good rules:
 Never mention the price of any thing to show how much you paid, but how little you paid.
 Never tell your income to anyone but your wife, your creditors, or your banker.

LOBO WOLVES ARE
 GETTING VERY AUDACIOUS

William Roberts, who was in the city Friday from Fair Oaks, re- ports a band of fifteen iobo wolves as having been encountered and driven from the mountains adjacent by hunger, the deep snow prevent ing them from securing any food. This unusual condition has created some alarm among farmers and rangemen, and 70 guard the poultry on the farms and the young animals grazing at outside points is the problem occupying the attention of owners. An attempt was made to follow the trails made by the wolves, but proved unsuccessful, the band retreating to the timber and to deep snow in the ravineS of the hills ad- jacent
 Joe Roberts also received a let ter yesterday from Clarence Jack son in Kirkland Valley, that the lobo wolf was infesting that section, and causing considerable trouble in their depredations. They had in vaded the premises, and destroyed considerable poultry. They are rave nous to secure something to eat, hence their venturing into settled To- calities for the first time known.

DEAL IS PENDING
 FOR SILVER CHORD
(From Sundays Daily.)


 Thirty tons of ore from the Sil- yer Chord mine on Turkey Creek. treated at the mill of Sam Parker, on a test for values, gave fatter- ing returns, according to statements made yesterday by Henry Barkschat who has an option to purchase the group, and it is probable the taking over of the property will be con- cluded in the near future.
 Mir. Barkschat left yesterday for Los Angeles. and stated the ore was mined and milled in order that ab- solute valuations might be given, which proved more remunerative than anticipated The Silver Chord has been a silver producer for many years, and has been operated main ly by leasers. It is situated a few miles from Turkey station on the Bradshaw mountain railroad.

DISTRICT COMING
 INTO PROMINENCE
Copper Greek May be the Banner Copper Producing Region in The
 Near Future.
(From Tuesdays DaIly)

That the Copper Creek region in the western part of the country is attaining more prominence than ever before, and is destined in the near future to be the scene of large pro duction is the belief of many men of practical mining experience who have reached this city during the past few days.
 The large exploration being con- ducted by the reorganized Bagdad Company, excites more interest than formerly, and while the deter minations recently made are of as founding proportions, sufficient is known and has reached the public to warrant that proposition taking its rank at the head of Arizona red metal producers at some day not far distant. Reports of the churn drill at one point passing through native copper condition of over fifty feet in depth, with other grades of ores being of higher percentage than formerly developed, is creating very much interest.
 This development occurs on ground situated within one-half mile of the holdings of the Niagara company, which is under operation with a small force. The Bagdad

was not accepted in court unless corroborated by a white man. To- day, where. the government has car ried out the policy of jailing them for perjury, the red mans word is about equivalent to the white broth CTS. The firm hand, justice, and the law of work is transforming the modern Indian. Hence the rarity of the episodes like that of the Colo rado Utes above referred to.

PIONEERS TAKE TROUBLES ID
 COURT
Dr. Day Has Superin- tendent Co1wel1 Arrest
 cd and Fined

In the municipal court room yes
 terday morning there prevailed for
 two lively hours a scene of foresnic
 fireworks that surpassed anything
 that has ever been pulled off in that usually quiet and sedate envir- onment of judicial doing, when Pio- neer Home Superintendent Coldweil and the former physician to that in stitution, Dr. W. E. Day, went at each other with all of the ferocity of two pile drivers, giving and taking blow for blow.
 The trouble arose over a personal clash on the street a few hours be- fore, in which Mir Caldwell was accused of using profane language toward Dr. Day, and for other all legged personal demonstrations of a threatening nature During the leg al altercation before Judge Robin son, both belligerents went out of the realm of the legal status of the trial, and that official was compelled to warn both that he was running a full fledged tribunal with all of the trimmings that go with imposing a penalty for contempt of court if the parties did not desist. After they were quieted down the exami- nation went ahead, with witnesses on both sides equally divided
 Superintendent Caldwell practical ly admitted his guilt along statutory lines, and after taking the case un- der advisement to consult the spe- cifc ordinance in such cases made and provided. and incidentally to re- lieve himself of the nervous tax borne incidental to the long bonn bardment that was carried on, Judge Robinson imposed a fine of $10 on Mir. Caldwell, which was paid later.

also has two churn drills exploring at other points, and a wide range of work is being carried out. Re ports from Southern Arizona state that the building of a private line of railway has been authorized by this syndicate and either the routes from Hillside station on the s. F. P. & P, from Seligman on the main line of the Santa Fe, or connection made at Bouse on the A. & C. in short time will be announced.
 A significant move of Colin Mum TO, to survey his group of over twenty claims for patent, situated in that field, is also going ahead, and the owner will soon establish a camp and start development. Many individual owners are going into the district to revive development, keen ly approaching the advantages of that desirable locality.
 The taking of massive cuprite ore from the main tunnel of the Niagara occurred a short time ago, and it is probable sinking on the high grade body will be considered immediate ly. Louis A. Wright, of the Lewis sohn syndicate, is personally direct ing the affairs of the Bagdad, and is on the ground most of the time

ADJUNCT
 UNIVERSITY COURSE

The strenuous demand for agricul-
 tural information as evidenced by
 the constantly increasing correspon-
 dence concerning conditions and
 methods of farming is causing every
 effort on the part of the men in
 charge of the agricultural welfare
 of Arizona to be exerted in fulfill
 ing these wants
 The Agricultural Extension De- pertinent is the most effective means
 that yet, has been devised in carry
 ing this information to the public
 at large. Of its activities SO far
 tried the Demonstration train was the most gratifying but the neces-
 sarily limited time which can be giv- en in this form of instruction only emphasizes the advisability of giving something of a more detailed na- ture than can be had in the short lectures of the one day.
 To fill this need, the Agricultural Department of the University, is this year giving a Farmers Fort night" course beginning February 10th and ending February 22nd. During these two weeks all of the more pertinent agricultural ques- tions will be discussed by the diff erent men in the Agricultural facul- ty who are best qualified along the respective lines Such subjects as horticulture, insect pests and their control, farm machinery, agronomy. irrigation, drainage, pumping mach inery, dry farming, etc, will be taken 1 up at length. At the University, this ! work can be given more effectively i than out in the field, since the facil- | ities for class room work are of | course very much better. Laborator- ies and lecture halls are we'll provid- : ed to give graphic lectures along any of these lines. This course is open to anyone in Arizona, without | cost. Board can be had at 75 cents per day right on the campus. Room i in the dormitory is free, but the applicant must bring his bedding. The railroads have expressed their willingness to make low rates from all points in the state for this per iod.
 Each days work will consist of four lectures, two in the forenoon and two in the afternoon. The even ing will be occupied with some il- ustrated lectures gotten up by diff terent people who have travelled somewhat extensively and will prob ably be in the form of a tale of travels The women of the State ire also requested to participate in -his course. The closing day will be n the form of a good old-fashioned with athletic and appro- 'riate patriotic program, for Wash ngton's birthday. Come prepared with notebook and pencil to jot down he kernel of every lecture for fu- ure reference. This information yoften at first hand can be used as guide book for this years opera ions. Any information concerning can be had from the Director of the Agricultural College. {; Tucson, Arizona.

 day that New Jersey war on the
 trusts which he has just started. He
 entered the governorship in 1911, at
 which time he was just as we'll aware
 as he is now that New Jersey was
 the mother of the trusts. And yet
 he allowed two years to elapse be-
 fore he made any attack upon them which anybody took with any seri-
 ousness. His state has granted more
 charters to the really iniquitous
 combines than all the other states in
 the aggregate. Tn his messages and
 confabs with politicians in the past
 two years he has dealt the New
 Jersey patented trusts few slaps
 on the wrist, but they have laughed
 at him.
 Now that the United States courts
 have shown the way by which the
 big combines can be attacked effec-
 lively under the Sherman l:w or
 other statutes Governor W'lsbn is making a show of bravery which in diets his own earlier sincerity. In several decisions the Supreme Court has dealt hard blows to some of the New Jersey chartered combines, and the governor of that state has at last been aroused to the necessity of pretending to take a hand in this
 fight. He suggests Draconian codes which would, in the local statutes, go little farther than the Sherman act does in the interstate field The Legislature may or may not heed his advice. It has discovered that his deeds are not as terrible as his talk Moreover, he is soon to be transferred to a larger arena, and some of the statesmen at Trenton may wait until they find out what he will attempt at Washington.
 It is altogether probable that in his inagural or in some of his messages to Congress, Wilson will | suggest some amendments to the | Sherman law to make it, as he ] thinks. more effective By recent de- cisions, however, powers have leen found in that statute which will make conservative men a little slow in attempting 10 amend it. They will want to use the powers which it already has before they seek to give it any new ones. After these are to their furthest limit there will be time enough to devise new powers for that law, if these be unable to meet all reasonable de- mands in curbing monopoly, and in sending offenders to jail The De partment of Justice at Washington has started to spur the minor Unit ed States Court in the Patten cotton cornering case to do the duty out lined for it in the decision by the Supreme Court This was one of the most important rulings ever made by the nations highest tribun- al on the scope of the Sherman act. By putting few of the gamblers behind prison bars the occupation of the coroner in food and other staple products will be gone, and the most vicious of all the practices on the great speculative exchanges will be abolished.

THE SICK MAN AT BAY.

Not only have the allies been de ceived by Turkey, but the great powers have been fouted. It has been apparent all along that the Porte's purpose in the armistice was delay. This is a favorite trick of the Turk He has put it in operat- ion in several wars, and usually with some success. Where it failed to bring victory it, at least, postpon- ed the inevitable. It has done the latter in the present instance. It now turns out, moreover, that the plight of Adrianople was not so serious as was supposed. Bulgaria now believes that that town has sui hcient food to last several months. The Bulgarian besiegers have pre- vented the arrival of Turkish troops there and supplies, but behind de lenses, as Sevastopol, Plevna and many other places proved, the Turk Is a hard fighter
 By a surprising approach to usa- nimity, the two groups of the great powers sent a collective note to the sultan, advising him to agree to the allies terms, including the surrender of Adrianople. The nations of the Triple Entente had, through their ambassadors at Constantinople, been counseling this course all along, but the Triple Alliance, especially Aus tria and Germany, were slow in com ing to this position Constantinople had been looking for moral aid from Vienna and Berlin, but this support has failed it. The six big powers have, to a certain extent, given their moral aid to the allies. In their note, too, there was a threat that the war might be carried into the sultan's | Asiatic domain.
 Yet the Turk remains obdurate, and the allies are confronted with l the prospect of being compelled to | renew the war or of abating some of their demands. Fourteen days l have been allowed to the Turk to | make favorable reply to the allies terms, failing in which a new attack will be ordered But the allies have lost much of their old advantage. The momentum of their advance is gone, the demoralization of the Turks has been repaired, and they have received large re-enforcements from Asia. Adrianople was the first Turkish capital in Europe. They had it many decades before they gained Constantinople, and senti- mental as well as purely political reasons render them determined to hold it to the last extremity. Inside the lines immediately before Con stantinople they are stronger now than before the armistice. It is losing fight which the Turk is wag- ing, but he is resolved to make victory costly for his enemies. Four ffths of his European empire has been lost to him, for he can hardly regain any of the ground now held by Bulgaria, Seryia and Greece. But in the final adjustment the territory on the European side of the Darda- nelles, the Bosporus and the Sea of Marmora which he will retain is likely to be larger than was gen. orally supposed at the time of the beginning of the armistice.

the close of the Spanish war, was for taking the Philippines and Porto Rico He talked then like a man who would not have baked at the taking over of Cuba itself While in this frame of mind he went to Washington and urged the Demo crats in the Senate to vote for the ratification of the Paris treaty. In this he was in opposition to the late Senator Vest William J. Stone supported Mir. Bryan in the begin ming, and there can be no doubt that, at that time, the overwhelming sentiment of the Democratic party was for reaping the fruits of a vic torious war and discharging the obli- gations which had fallen upon us in the taking of Manila
 But MT. Vest was the peerless leader" of that hour. Never did he win a greater victory in all his bril- liant career than was won by him in turning back the tide of opinion in his party and makisg imperialism" the paramount issue" of its next na- tional platform. He could not con- trol the Senate, but he did control his party. Standing on the edge of the grave, he commanded it to about face" and it faced about. This is worth remembering, when it is threatening to make the govern ment face about with it. MT. Sry- an seems to have abandoned his first position, and it may be that a majority of Democrats are no long CT favorable to our occupation of the islands. The situation is mater ially changed. We have already done a great work there which, without us, would have been left undone. The Filipinos, and all of the other tribesmen, are the better for our acquaintance. There can be no doubt about that. The question raised is one of whether we are the better for theirs. They come high, and we do not have to have them In its last analysis, our problem is a moral and not a political or a beneficial one. The question is one of the obligation of the strong to the weak. To many evacuation would still seem like child abandon ment.
 In the address at the farewell din ner given in his honor at Washing ton Mir Cannon said some wise and witty things. He wished the Demo crats well, which is wise, since all of us must live under their government for time. But he insisted on being shown. We'll, he will be. We all must be. "The proof of the pudding | is in eating it," said he. We join him in the hope there will be more | of it to eat than there was before. [
