WHY CITIZEN SOLDIERS ARE
SCARCE

The one trouble that menaces the
citizen soldiery of the United States
today, is the fact that many profess
sional soldiers are afraid they will
make it too easy for the "citizen' fell
low to work for nothing and make a
living on the side. The government
of the United States, upholds this
view-through regular army high
brows who decide such things with
the sanction of the secretary of war
and president. When war comes to
war, this same patriotic "mut" who
has been kicked all over the patch be-
cause he can't learn batch of details
in few hours that it took the high
brow four years at West Point to
learn, will have to stand the blunt of
the game. The present United States
army is just about large enough to
stop real riot in an Irish ward.
Encouraging the citizen soldiery,
equipping them decently and treating
them decently, instead of tying them
up at every opportunity, would pro-
duce results. As it is the pay for
their patriotism and hard work is
mainly ridicule and skinning them out
of every advantage, pay and equip
ment. Some one, sometime should
get broad gagged view enough to
see that the men who are patriotic
should be encouraged rather than dis
couraged and technicalities overlooked
fighting the government, instead of
preparing to fight the enemies of the
government, seems to be the main
game at the present time.

INDIANS RECKONING THE
DEAD FROM THE SEA

On the rugged coast of Washington
by the Copalis sands writes friend
of The Youths Companion) there is a
tower from which the Indians watch
for the sea otter. They are very eager
after that game, for the hide of one
of those creatures Use worth all tn
way from $500 to $4,000. Two young
Indians were watching one day, when
they saw a sea otter off in the surf.
Two shots from their rifles killed the
otter, and then they rushed down to
their surfboat. The sea was heavy,
and when they were out some distance
from the shore their boat broke in two
over a comber, and the men were
thrown into the sea. One Of the In
dams drifted ashore on a piece Of
wreckage. The other, although a
splendid swimmer, was drowned. The
news soon spread to the reservation,
and the Indians from far and near
came to the beach and stood on the
sands, silently reckoning to the sea
to give up the dead.
1t was a solemn, impressive sight
the stalwart, rugged, copper-colored
men and women standing at the verge
of the sea foam asking the sea be the
motion of their hands to send the body
ashore. For three days they waited
and beckoned, and then dark object
was seen drifting into shallow water.
Sometimes it was buried completely
from the view by the heavy surf; then
it was seen again little nearer, and
so the body of the dead Indian came
ashore at the call of his tribesmen.

TOUCHED THE SPOT


The republican party" in Arizona
viii never be republican party until
there are enough people in it who
won't allow those who are republicans
from principle to be led out and shot
at sunrise because they don't agree
with some petty personal fractional
fight. The honest-to-goodness repu-
blican, the one who believes in prin-
ciples rather than persons, has been
bushwacked so often that merely the
use of the party name by some bunch
of political outlaws does not mean
much to him. When all get together
there may be some fight, but not a
personal row for personal benefit
Coconino Sun.
The Sun touches the spot with re-
ference to the Republican Party in
Arizona. That Journal is one Of the
thick and thin republican newspapers
in the state, and through many years
its editor has been high in republican
councils. He has represented his party
and his county in the halls of legisla-
ton, and has been a republican from
principle. And after al these years
he appears to have discovered that
with his (self alleged republicans)
political associates there is mighty
little principle. As he puts it clearly,
for the most part, they are lot of
political bush-whackers, whose chief
aim is to get what they can out of the
party and failing to get what they
want are ready ever afterward to
knife the party and men who are re-
publican from principle.
The Oasis had twenty years expe-
rience with them.-Nogales Oasis.
1t is a fact that "pie-counter pa
triots" have seen their day in Arizona.
The time has come when principle
must override petty personal jealouses,
if the republican party is to be reck-
oned with in this state. Really big
men, competant men, rarely loan
themselves to petty chickering's but are
more apt to stand for final beneficial
results not only to the party but to
the whole people of the state.
Fads, fancies, and theories have been
worked in the new state of Arizona
until the people are satiated with
thine. They have paid the freight and
them. They have paid the freight and
though the experiences of the past
few years should convince the people
that the fads and theories and rain
bow fancies are not producing results
but are producing splendid conglo-
meraton of troubles, complication of
laws and continual increase of tax
alton.
If the people of the state approve
and are pleased at our present chaotic
condition, it is we'll and good-they
are paying for it; if not it is time that
we got back to some safe footing and
find out just where we are "at." The
Sun, nor its editor, has any ak to
grind or vaulting ambition, but has a
hearty hope for Arizona's robust fu-
