THE COWBOYS PRAYER.

o Lord, I've never lived where chur
ches grow;
l love creation better as it stood
That day You finished it so lone
ago
And looked upon Your work and
called it good.
l know that others find You in the
light
That's sifted down through tinted
window panes,
And yet l seem to feel You near to-
night
In this dim, quiet starlight on the
plains.
thank You, Lord, that I am placed
so well
That You have made my freedom
so complete;
That I'm no slave of whistle, clock
or bell,
Or weak-eyed prisoner of wall and
street.
Just let me live my life as I've begun
And give me work that's open to
the sky;
Make me a pardner of the wind and
sun
And | won't ask a life that's soft
or high.
Let me be easy on the man that's
down
And make me square and generous
with all;
I'm in town,
But never let them say I'm mean
or small,
Make me as big and open as the
plains,
AS honest as the horse between
my knees,
Clean as the wind that blows behind
the rains,
Free as the hawk that circles down
the breeze.
Forgive me, Lord, when sometimes
l forget;
You understand the reasons that
are hid, -.
You know about the things that gall
and fret,
You know me better than my moth
er did.
Just keep an eye on all that's done
and said, 49,
Just right me sometimes when !
turn aside,
And guide me on the long, dim trail
ahead
That stretches upward toward the
Great Divide.
Charles B. Clark, Jr. in the Port
land Oregonian.

CONDITIONS HAVE CHANGED.

There appears TO be in some quarters
in this country curious failure to ap-
preciate at its full value the changes
that have occurred in Mexico since the
Diaz government. which held that
country fair and square in good run
ming order and enforced peace, order
and law, TO the satisfaction of the
world and of all investors. The great
investments in Mexico by Americans,
as well as by other foreigners. were
under the Diaz administration, when
everything in Mexico was IN good run
ming order, when that country was at
peace, and when investments of money
were as secure as in any part of the
world, These orderly conditions changed
instantly TO a condition Of practical
chaos when Madero got under headway
his revolution against Diaz, and mat
tiers have been going from bad TO
worse ever since. 1t is, therefore, with
astonishment that We see an editorial
paragraph in any American newspaper,
such as we find in the Chicago News.
which reads as follows:
The capitalists who went into Mexico
10 invest their money did so with knowI-
edge OF the conditions They realized
that they were taking risks II is not IN
accord with American IDEAS that an out
side government should undertake IN
such q case TO assume responsibility for
the maintenance OF peace In Mexico in
order 10 give security TO private Invest
ments made with a full knowledge Of the
risks involved.
That expression ignores altogether
the changes that have come to Mexico
there. The investments were absolutely
safe at the time they We're made and
under the conditions that then pre-
vailed The American investors had
every reason to believe that the MeXi.
can government would remain firm, and
able to take care of any disorders that
might arise. At the time these invest
ments were made, there was no rea.
son to apprehend any peril TO them, no
more than if they had been made in
the United States. To say, therefore,
that the investments were risky and
that the capitalists who made them
must face their own perils, is TO forget
the real situation entirely.
Nothing is more natural than for the
citizens OF any foreign country to ap-
peal to their home governments when
such citizens are in peril or In case
OF riot, anarchy. or disturbance that
is beyond the control of the native gov
eminent, either in Mexico or elsewhere;
and so the doctrine Of cavest emptor, as
the law has it. that is, freely rendered,

no rightful application in such a case

Tie bankers OF tins city do well in
in3oysing the Omaha resolutions dissp-.
proving Of the administration currency
bill IN its present form. All recognize
the need of currency reform, but those
who understand that need best, know
that what is needed is more freedom,
not restriction; a unified currency and
banking system intelligently managed
and free from political intrusion, not a
system which breaks tins country into
financial fragments. and that puts the
whole banking and currency system OF
the country under the thumb and at the
bid and call of irresponsible politicians.

BuLaARIANs COMING TO REASON

The Bnlgarians having been so thor
oughly whipped by the Servians anc
Greeks, and being in such imminent per
il by reason OF the Rumanan invasion
from the north, they are finally coming
to reason, Their armies have been bad
ly beaten, they are defenselcss before
the Rumanians, and impotent before the
Turks who arc rapidly overrunning the
regions Of Macedonia and Thrace which
were so quickly conquered by the Bull
garians on the opening of the war Inst
fall The Turks appear to be regain
ing all of the territory lost to the Bull
| garians, and they are regaining it, ac'
| cording to all accounts, with the usual
barbarities that accompany war opera
tions in that unhappy region of the
earth. The Bulgarians are themselves
accused of unspeakable barbarities in
hicted upon the Greeks, as formerly
they were accused of like barbarities
inflicted upon the Turks,
But it appears that Bulgaria's pleas
for peace have begun to have an Ell

nent possession OF the triangle south of
the Danube on a line from little west
of Silistria running south of east TO the
Black Sea. Rumania will thus get
everything she claimed in place Of the
fraction that was awarded her on the
arbitration of Russia
What effect the recovery by the
Turks Of the regions overrun by the
Bulgarians, the recapture of Adrianople
and of Kirk-kilisc and Lulu-Burgas,
where the opening battles Of the war
took place, remains to be seen. Wheth
er the Turks will be able to make good
their announcement that the Turko- Bull
garia frontier will be the River Mar
titza, may be somewhat doubtful. How
ever, it is clear that the assumption
that the Bulgarlans had an understand
ing with the Turks which would pre-
vent the Turks attacking them in the
rear during their war with the Greeks
and Seryians. was bad mistake.
However, the Bulgarians appear TO he

ments that peace must be made upon
the field, and are sending delegates to
meet with the delegates Of the Greeks
and Servians, to arrange terms on which
peace may be had.

Hunt. Company A of Phoenix immedi- ately drew down the assignment to guard duty for tonight. Incidentally Company A and I of Flagstaff, each with less than the required number of men to constitute company were con- solidated, with Capt. Robinson in com mand and First Lieutenant Price, sec ond. It is likely that because of the superior number of men the company will be designated Is Company A.
 When the belated train pulled into Whipple at 5:30, the evening sun was just breaking through the clouds which an hour before had given release to a heavy rain. In less time than it takes to tell, the camp equipment of each company was being unloaded and thanks to the foresight of Col Harris, who visited here a few days ago, the companies had little trouble in laying out their company streets and getting the tents up. It was nearly eight o'clock

however, before the last company mess call had been sounded. Within an hour after mess, lights were out and the guardsmen were sleeping on straw mattresses and dreaming of the mor- TOW.
 TSere will be some real work tomor- row but for the most part this will con- sist in making the camp secure and preparing for the days to come. Ev- erybody is feeling in excellent spirits and while the outlook is for rain, it is believed that everything will be snug enough to withstand the heaviest downpour. First Lieutenant D. La Garde, United States Army instructor inspector will be one of the busiest men on the camp grounds having general supervision over drills and field work He and Col. Tuthill, commander of the regiment will work hand in hand to make this the greatest encampment in the history of the Guard of Arizona.
