RECOVER

The Day-Bristol Consolidated Min.
ing Company, which lost the fight in
the lower courts for the possession
of the Inman lode mining claim at
Bristol. has appealed the case to the
supreme court of the State, says the
Phoebe Record.
The Inman is an unpatented claim
upon which the company failed to do
the annual assessment work for the
year 1912. The ground was then 10.
Gated by A. l.. Scott and his title
was declared to be valid. In the last
steps taken in the district court the
Day Bristol company, then under the
management of George Il. Bent,
sought to have the case reopened
but Charles Lee Horsey, SCOTS at
torney, set up the contention that
the Day-Bristol company had no
standing in the Nevada courts upon
the ground that the company had
not complied with the laws of the
State requiring the filing of its ar
ticles of Incorporation with the sec,
rotary of State. Judge Taber, before
whom the case was tried, sustained
Mr.. Horseys contention.
The lnman is declared to be val
liable property and Is located near
the principal workings of the Day

THE VOICE OF GOD
I have come and the world shall be Shaken
Like reed at the touch of my rod,
And the kingdom of time shall awaken
70 the voice an dthe summons of god.
Ne~more through the din of the ages
Shall warnings and chidings divine
From the lips of my prophets and sages
Be tTampled like pearls before swine.
Ye have stolen my lands and my cattle;
You have kept back from labor its need;
Ye have challenged the Outcast to battle,
When they pied at your feet in their need
And when clamOrs of hunger grow louder,
And the multitudes prayed to be fed,
Ye have answered with prisons or powder
The cries of your brothers for bread.

And the hooking of steeples and domes,
To join in the sorrows and crosses
Of the ones ye have robbed Of their homes.

OF the naked and hungry and cold,
And dearer- to me are their losses
Than your gains and your idols of gold.
will wither the might of the spoiIer;
l will laugh at your dungeons and locks;
The tyrant shall yield to the tOiler
And your judges eat grass like an OK;
For the prayers of the poor have assembled
To be written like lightDings on high,
AND the walls OF your captlVeS have blended
With the bolts that must leap from the sky.
The thrones of your king shall be shattered
And the prisoner and serfs shah go free;
l will harvest from seed that l scattered
On the borders of blue Gallilee;
For come not alone and stranger;

Till the star that stood over the manger
Shall cover the world with its light

Using Childhood to Muddy the Waters

up to this time for helping itself to the funds

of Paul y. Furman, secretary Of the ChiId

TO see the rest OF mankind and the genera
tions yet unborn will sacrifice his convcn-
fence. and even much more to go to the polls.
The better come to know mankind
the actual character and lives Of people whom
perhaps we have never seen or never will
see--the stronger grows our altrusm, which
is a normal quality OF human nature. The
literature OF the magazines is rendering
Invaluable service. II is forwarding grad
ual reconciliation of classes and races by its
vivid portrayal OF what people really are
II is bringing our conception Of the rest
Of humanity nearer TO the human reality.
The psychology that tells us clearly how
we are separated by time, rather than space
from those who will be affected by our acts
IS important IN the development Of civic
Imagination. For every ton OF coal that We
mine, for every beautiful hillside that We rob
of it's forests. for every law put on the stat
ute books by the Legislators that we elect.
for every vote that is cast the polls, we
are answerable TO future generations.

In Reply to Ccrhardt Hauptmann

MO ONE will dispute Hauptmann's conten-
1Ntions that Germany, the Germany Of
Kant and Schopenhauer,' is the great bea-
con light Of civilization. No one will dispute
that she has brought immortal contributions
upon the altar of art, science. industry and
literature. But all, all who think in the light
of ncxorable historical facts, will dispute the
brazen claims Of the ruling class Of Germany
that German industry and the feudal ideas
of government and administration should
dominate the rest Of the world. This is not
a fight for the preservation of German
culture 1t is rather a battle for the liberia
tIon Of German culture and all culture from
military and financial Prussanism The
defeat of Germany Will be the victory of
Germany and the victory Of the entire world.
