Unused Wealth

Among the subjects which will probably come up for consideration in the sessions the Mining Congress will fbes the mineral deposits on Indian reservatlons That is a matter in which Arizona is more deeply concerned than any other state in the unon for the reason that more of it's territory IS included in such reserves and the of many of them Is rich in minerals. coal, gold and copper This wealth is all locked up There is an objection entirely sentimental to the opening of these great treasure vaults; they belong to the Indians or to the government the trustee for the Indians But the government does not propose to unlock tbem and the Indians could not within many generations do SO Thus, unless policy looking to their open ing is adopted, this great wealth will lie undisurbed for many years, useless d large sum of money kept in safe-deposit vault. The Indians will derive no benefit from it and the whites gain none
 The same sentimental objection for some years prevented the development of oil in the Indian Terri tory, part of Oklahoma The oil lands be- longed to the Indians. They were of no use to them but their self-constituted protectors in the east feared that if arrangement made for the development of the oil and gas the Indians would somehow De defrauded; so long as this wealth was in the ground it safe. It could do the Indians good, but it might be useful to their descendants A wiser policy length prevailed and leasing system adopted. The government un- dertook to protect the rights of the Indians and a great oil field has been opened with the result that nowhere in the world is there wealthier com munity than that composed of the Indians who own that ground. Families who had lived on the land in squalid poverty in receipt of princely royalties and millions whites have also been bene- fitted
 Those who favor the opening of the mineral deposits on the Indian reservations do not desire to encroach upon any of the rights of the Indians On the contrary, they desire that they snail be fully protected. They do want these Indian mineral lands exploited but they want them developed under the surveillance of the government whose wards can thereby be better served by it than by the present dog in the manager policy, which capital away from the Indian lands.

EMPLOYMENT BUREAUS.

A recognized factor in the solution of the problem of unemployment is the state municipality ducted free employment bureau. In Germany there is industrial city of importance that has not such a municipal labor exchange. The in charge of these exchanges have thorough familiar ity with industrial conditions not only in ther city but throughout the nation. Because of this expert knowledge of the labor market on municipal state, and even national scale the jobess IS quickly brought in contact with the employer need of help.
 A number of states in this country have within recent years established free employment bureaus. Our state is among them The state employ ment bureaus in this country, however, of no vital help to the community. according to investiga- tions made by the United States commission in- dustrial relations. The report of the commissions investigator Mir. C.. B. Barnes, characterizes the free employment bureaus of this country economic loss to the community rather than gain. in most
 The of the free employment bureaus in the United States-and that holds good of the employ ment bureaus of Chicago-is their mismanagement, MT. Barnes says The appointed to head these bureaus not chosen for their fitness, ut out of political considerations Men without experience in the industrial field. without any interest. human tarion scientific. in the problems of labor given jobs in these offices political plums" The result is that effort is made to place these employ yment bureaus scientific, efficient basis.
 The investigator of the commission on industrial relations charges the employment offices, in Chicago and elsewhere. though he does specify. with being loafing places for buns and hobos A decent workman does not enter such bureau, he alleges, because it is known to specialize only in short iobs' for down and outs The bureaus charged with issuing inaccurate sta tiscs about their work They slipshod in the manner of recording information about employees and employers. They have failed to make themselves competitors of the private employment agencies which they were intended to be-because of their utter incompetency Their superintendents are active,' says Mir Barnes, and they have failed the slightest public interest in their work.
 These serious charges and, coming as they do from expert sources, they should be giAtn prompt consideration. If the state of Illinois thinks it worth while having free employment bureaus it ought to to it that these bureaus do belle their name The subject of worklessness in this country is especially keen in view of unsettled industrial conditions account of the The employment bureaus in this city should be headed by men who have both training and character for the work.-Chicago Tribune.

FL PASO, Dec. 7-General Orneas, Villa commander at Juarez, announced q strong force of Villa soldiers will soon be sent against the troops of Gen eral Salazar, former federal leader, who has started new revolution in central Chihuahua.
 Reports from the eastern border said the Salazar forces are crossing in small groups between Presidio. Texas and Fl Paso and that Salazar, who escaped recently from an American jail. had entered Mexico, near Columbus, N. M. His troops are reported as awaiting ammunition before attacking either Casas Grandes, a strategical point in western Chihuahua. or Palomas. a port of entry opposite Columbus. Villa gar risons in northern Mexico have been so depleted by the movement to Mexico City of the convention forces that it can give little resistance to the Salazar movement without weakening the town garrisons. Villa agents here are silent regarding the developments in Mexico City.

Everything is in readiness for the
 great municipal Christmas tree dance at Murray-Anderson's, 324 and 326 East

 most attractive event of it's kind ever held in Phoenix The doors of the
 dancing hall will be opened to the pub lie at S:15 ard dancing will begin at

 While there will be many events that are bound to prove attractive, interest centers chiefly in the exhibition of La Furlana" which will be seen for the flrst time in Phoenix when it is danced by John Murray Anderson and Helen
 Beatrice Crane, tonight This is the
 dance which has become famous the world over ds the choice of the late Pope Plus X as a substitute for the l tango at the time that dance was be- ing somewhat criticised. In commenting on La Furlana" Le Matin de Paris says; La Furlana est une ancienne danse populaire du I'rioul ct de Venise. File ] lnest pas sans analogie avec la bourree. CeuX quila vircnt danser par la gon- dollers Id disent gracieuse ct fort ami i mee

 socicte Romline.
 "Ce desir de souVerain Pontifc fut
 exauce ct. rheure actuelle les an ciens fervents du tango apprennent ayec adeur la dance du Pape." Which, being translated into ordin- ary every day American, runs about as follows: The FUrlana is an ancient foll, dance of Frial and Venice. i His Holiness Pope Plus, who always
 remained Venetian at heart and who preserved pleasant recollections of the 1 Furlana. asked Don Guido Antci Mat
 tei. son of Prince Antici Mattel. why this dance was not danced in Roman so-
 ciety
 The interest shown hy his Holiness i was the means of reviving the Furlana modern version of which was imme- diately introduced in Paris" The version to be performed by MT Murray Anderson and Miss Crane will be the ancient Furlana or Frial Venice the music is from La Giaconda by A Ponchielli.
 The dance is extremely beautiful and 1 interesting and will unquestionably
 prove one of the most popular exhibi- | ton dances of the season. In addition to this there will lie many prize and lucky dances, foI
 which valuable prizes will be given. Here is q chance to spend a very ! pleasant evening at a very small cost and at the same time help along one of

THE SOUL OF A SLAVE.

Always looking up to be saved /
economically, intellectually and event.
ually
Just think of how many thousands
OF wage-slaVes we now have under the
modern, scientific machine slavery of
capitalism.
These slaves, through their ances-
tors, the chattel slave and the feudal
serf, have been trained for centuries
by their masters to look up to see the
great-alongsid of some god.
What Is more nauseating to observe
than bunch of capitalst-brained wage
slaves working for SALARY" Of 1898
per day and everlastingly chattering
about Roosevelt, Bryan, Wilson
or some prospective president of this
class-men who disdain the working
class as a class?
Never do you hear such bunch
once intimate that they ever thought
that member of their own class could
be president! Always looking in the
direction they have been trained to
look! How sickening!
Now you fellow wage slaves, let me
throw you the hint that we who know
we are slaves do not have to think,
talk and act like slaves. Neither do
you. We have mighty contemplate
opinion Of you who do think, talk and
act like slaves.
If you have any viscera to go with
the brains you have got, you will quit
looking up and look straight ahead.
You will then see your own economic
class-the only useful and necessary
class in this day and age.
II you have enough primitive knowl-
edge about you, you can save yourself
by uniting with your own economic
class. No other class cares a damn
for you except what they can get out
of your hide! Do not stop when you
unite either. Study!
If you do not make some effort to
save yourself, economically, you are
not fit to save eventually.
