TO MOTHERS
BY Sidney Hillyard.

Do you wish your children to learn
that war is GLORIOUS, noble, and right?
Do you wish them to absorb the feel
ing deep into their bones that at the
call of some politician who happens
to have been elected to Office it is
theirs to offer their bodies to the
artillery of an enemy? Do you-wish
them to gather the day dream of orien-
tai races that the general and the
admiral, the great slayers of men, the
|devastators of lands and homes, shall
be those to whom your children shall
build monuments and crown with
wreaths of laurel? Do you wish them
Ito hear loudmouthed tales of the
grandeur of those who destroy, while
those who create the wealth of the
world are hearlded with contempt:
Do you wish them to learn that it is
Theirs not to reason Why a war is
declared, Theirs not to reason why"
men are marching and women weep
ing, but that it is theirs but to do
and die?" Qe@you wish them to pre-
pare their backs for the ever increas-
ling load of militarism and to prepare
| their tribute WhereWith to rear up
armies in time Of peace?
If you do, Mothers of America, you
win look to the schools. You viii
leave your schools in the hands of
politicians, pedagogues, superintend-
ents, principals, school boards and
trustees, who. Willingly or inviting

ly, with malice afore-thought or in
stupidity and ignorance, represent and
who will continue to represent the
Capitalist Glass.
If you do not, Mothers of America,
you will look to the schools. You will
take your schols out of the hands
of the capitalist universities, out Of
the hands of the capitalists and their
servants whom they elect to repre-
sent them in the conusels of those who
govern the generation that is to be.
You will turn over the control of your
schols to the hands those who are
members of, or will represent that
class of men and women who do the
useful work of the world. You will
appoint trustees who will see that the
children are taught.
That war is blasphemous, vicious,
and disgraceful; That generals and
admirals are often vain, childish, lout-
ish, and incapable of the doing of any
useful work, which they would des-

Toast the women of Calumet
And all, in the land of Mines;
Golden strands in the workers net,
Spread out on the picket lines;
The .sWeethearts, sisters, mothers,
wives,
With pulse of the red blood tide,
The heart-throb urge for precious
with the men fold, side by side.
10 you rich, in luxurious lives,
Both deaf and blind to the poor;
You drones, that leave but empty
hives,
Where the workers must endure
The hunger illness and such death,
AS ne'er threatens where you ease
a frozen conscience, in the breath
OF the oceans summer breeze.
Here's to the women and their plea
For the children in the strife;
Reaching to the powers that be,
To ask for the right to life;
Fierce in the thought of hunger's
curse,
While the wolves snarl at the door,
A foam flecked pack from Money
Purse,
Ever yelping there for more.
10 prostitutes, of dollar power,
In trimmings, gilt and lace;
Souls that bud but never flower
To the blossoms of the race;
Unmoved by want and sore distress,
When the plutocrat commands;
Cheap gains, upon his board of chess,
Played by his cunning hands.
Toast the women of Calumet
And all, in the land Of mines;
Bolden strands in the workers net,
Spread out on the picket lines:

wives
With pulse of the red blood tide,

pise to do even had they the ability;
that all war must sooner or later and
generally both sooner and later, be
paid for; that it is not the brave gen
erals, the smooth politicians, the learn
ed pedagogues, who will pay for the
waste of war, but that they will have
to pay for it themselves.
. Mothers of America, when the
school election comes around your
duty to your children leads you
straight to the polls. Let the dishes
lie in the kitchen sink and your hus-
bands shirt~go un-ironed if needs be
for "a few hours on election day, and
do you get to your duty to your coun-
try, oyur children and your God. Vote
out the Old. Vote in the New. Vote
out the false. Vote in the True. And
the coming generation shall arise
amidst it's peace and plenty and call
you blessed.

MONDAY This Years Ballot
 Is of Record Size

PHOENIX. Oct. 3.-Ths secrstary of state is today sending to the bosrds of supervisors Of the s,s,e copies of the official ballot. All of the ballots will be unusually large this year; aud that of Msricops county hvlds the record with its approximately si1 feet oi voting material. The ballots of this county alone, it has been estimated. will be sufficient to paper all the houses in Phoenix end have enough left over to take care of Prescott, excluding the new court house.
 The size of this years ballots throughout the state is due to the score of amendments, initiated measures and referred laws which sp- pear thereon, am ong them being the much discussed 80 per cent citizen
 hip, anti- biacklist and new tex lave Is is suggestsd that if much Of th'' experimeptal legislation gees into effect, Arizona will not bereaiter need sucb large ballots or co msny of then owing to the fact that her citisepI
 will have to seek employ meut in othe
 states.

Dentistry Board
 Meets at Phoenix

PHOENIX, Oct . 6.-Twalve can didstes for diplomas from the -tste Of Arizona giving permission to practice dentistry will be examined st at the meeting of the state board of eIamin- CTS. Dr W A Baker, presiden, Of the board leave, this morning to attend the session.
 Practically all of the candidates are from the esstern states. Apparently the presence Of 60 many candida es at one time indicates that times are comparatively better in Arizona than any other place in the country. An increase in the number of dentists ap- pearr to indicate good times, it is be. lieved by economists, as people have their teeth attended to when times are prosperous.

Mcdonald and the. ether msmbers of the Democratic county central com. mistee. are planning sn exceedingly active csmpaisn for the fonr weets proceeding the election. which wi l be held on Novemb,r 3, four weeks from Tuesday.

MoIybdic Ores
Near Benson

BENSON. Oct. CIV H Schardin ard Archie Chisholm returned Monday rom Soss Canyon, 4S miles northerly from Benson, having fin shed the an nual assessment ou the Sos Group of coI per clsims, ow ed by A O Simkius and associates.
 Specimens of ore from the ciai q lefs at this office by MT Schardin are bish grade carbonate copper ores, one sample carrying large per cent of glance. The Soso ore carries good gold and silver values. What will probably prove of great value to the property is 6 large body of cha,copy- rite and moiy blenum sulphide. There was not enough work done on this body Of ore 10 prove its probable ex- cent aud no assays have been taken thereof, but Mir Schardin believes the ore body, about ten feet in width, will develop from two three per cent of mo!ybdenum, and there ia enough copper to pay the mining and concen- tratiDR expeDee'. Mols bcenum is . valusble metal. being quoted ct $l.25 per pound prior to the Euroreon war, aud it is possible that 6 camp will be reestsblished on on the Soso property diring the winter months to more thoroughly exploit this and the other or. bodies on the property. and make regular ore shipments therefrom.

 Increases Lead

PHOENIX, Oct. 6.-That the birth rate in Arizona i. steadily increasing it's lead on the death rate is shown oy the statement of vital statistics con- tained in the quarterly bulletin of the state board of health, which is being cent out this Nsek.
 The table shoss that the number of births recorded for the six months period ending June 30, 1914, was 7, ,329 e compared with total Of 2 .O7l for the preceding halt year, aod making a not increase for the first half oi 1914 of 49l. The increase in population for the last si1 months of 1913 wac 3sS.
 For the year ending June 30 last, the net gain as shown in the records of the sta;e board of health is sT9, the total number of births being 1, 400 and deaths 3.52l. hi. makes an average of 365 births per month, the a craze net gain in population being 72.
 While vital statistics are some~hat insccura'e. because necessarily more or less incomplete, there are certain features about the reports from the various ccunties that are Interesting by reason of their persistence. For example. Graham coun'y almost in variably lesds in the ra'io of births over deaths, the proportion for the year being PA births to 50 deaths Other counties, with two exceptions show more or less gain in populAs on, but in none ol tn. m does the war or race suicide continue with such mark. ed results ss in Graham county,
 Pima and Santa Cruz counties show greater number Of deaths thar births for the twelve nouthe, tbs score standing 457 to 369 and ll2 tc s7 respectively.
