That is an excellent article on rural
credits in the Gem Worker of Nov
4th, by Russell C. Massey, and all
readers who are interested in this
necessary movement to improve the
conditions of the agricultural classes
should note the passage of his utter
ance in connection with government
aid: Disguise it as we may. with
out government aid in furnishing the
money, we escape not one whit from
the power of the money lenders. We.
as producers, are entitled to as much
government aid as was given the
bankers in the "Federal Reserve Act"
Here is the important thought in
connection with this question, and
any surrender to private money-lend-
ing interests, covering this, any emas-
culation or thimble-rigging on this
vital point will spelT failure of rural
credit law with teeth long enough to
escape the power of the banking inter-
ests which will be lined up solidly
against a workable law.
1t will be noted by all who are
watching the developments of this
rural credit movement, now reaching
eliminating point very rapidly, that
many private bankers are gaining a
foothold in the promotion of rural
credit interests and wherever they
are gaining ground it can be safely
predicted that it is for the purpose of
making the proposed law measure
that has for its purpose more profit
taking affair for the private National
and State banking interests than any
substantial aid to the agricultural
masses.
Already where the National banker
is speaking from the vantage ground
of prestige in the rural credit move
ment, something like this isrepeated
daily in the press: The farmers do
not want governmental aid; they are
asking no especial favors."
Such statements have for their pur-
pose the coercing into silence those
who have the best interests of the far
mer in view No rural credit law
worth the writing can be framed that
does not have government support
because it will be absolutely necessary
for the farmer, individually or in
droves, to gain the benefit of money
at either reasonable time or lower
rate of interest by going to those who
are not at all interested in helping
him but are more directly concern.

The great Pacific shipping concens,
after circulating the country with
threats, bluffs, and bunk unlimited,
are doing what every intelligent read
er of newspaper buffoonery really ex-
pected they would-are complying
with the regulations of the law. News
accounts prove this conclusively and
from Pacific coast comes the confir-
mation-and so it was a bluff after
all. They were going to quit the
Pacific raw and cold-but changed
their mind? Not hardly.
They never really intended to do
that, but like one of the great owners
said last summer: "The American
people must be taught lesson"
The ship monopolists must be dis
appointed at the service they received
from the canned" press-it never
really created any opinion for their
side of the question at all but it
must have cost a mint of money
Every days news brings new evidence
that the subsidized newspaper is
slipping, slipping until it will soon oc-
cupy its proper place along the front
row of the scarlet momen of the red
light districts. Its uncleanness is
much more culpable than that of the
prostitute, however, because the latter
has been driven beyond the pale in
many instances from wage slavery,
persecution and betrayal. The news
paper crook and prostitute faunts his
brazen dishonesty from a respectable
position, but there is coming time
shortly, please Heaven, when he won't
be allowed to do so. He will be prop
ly branded, trade-marked and label
ed and with a rough hand hurled into
the scrap-heap of moral outcasts that
are in many instances high above him
in character, because they have not
his sickening conceit and self-decep-
ton. He is fast making the bed for
himself-he does not needed to be
regulated by the government-he is
cutting bands of decency from around
his social position and letting himself
drop into the cellar of public scorn
But no one who knows the charac.
ter of the people who control thC
great shipping interests will for a mo
ment believe they are going to surren

without further efforts against thi
Seamen's act and its regulations be

time-being to its regulations. The,

From Remarks of Clyde H. Tavenner
Thanks to an investigation of the
Bethlehem Steel Co.'S strike in 1910,
information is available as to condi-
ton of labor in that armor-making
concerns plants. The inquiry was
made by the United States Bureau of
Labor in 1910, under the direction of
Ethelbert Stewart, special agent OF
the Labor Bureau at the time, who
bore the reputation of being one Of
the most experienced economic inves-
tigators in the country.
When this strike began there were
no labor organizations in the plant;
the company would not permit them.
II was the higher grade workers who
led off in the strike. Many OF the
hiehest-grade men had Approximately
a l0H hour day. But they were fre-
ouently being required to work over
time on week days and to do addition
al work on Sundays Fearing the en-
croachments of overtime and Sunday
work we're leading to l2-hour and
7-dav schedule for the whole force
they therefore protested. Thereupon
the protesting committee was DIS
charged; therefore the strike

vealed this:

ing 7 days every week; 43 including
these %, working some Sundays in
the month; 81 working II hours
day, Is working II hours day, days
a week; 40 earning less than 81 day.
These are the grim figures which
the United States Bureau of Labor
gives us of the working shifts of the
Bethlehem Steel Co., as drawn from
the company's own time books. This
is the manner in which the concerns
that have drawn down $l75,O0O,000
OF the peoples money were treating
their employees in 1910 Since that
time considerable S-hour day legis-
lation has been passed, and there is
no record of the number of l2-hour
shifts now in force.
Worlingmen of the Nation, are you
willing that your government shall
continue to give contracts running
into the millions annually to firms
that have mistreated and underpaid
their employees as have these great
war-trafheking concerns? If you are
not willing, then protest against it.
But let me assure you at the outset
that one protest will not be sufficient
The chances are you will have to
speak loud and often before your
voice will be heard in far-off Wash
ington.

BUYING HORSES FOR EUROPEAN WAR IN
 ARIZONA MARKETS
Head of French Commission h. SpeCtS 1000 Head in Phoenix and Prices Range From SIS to SIPS.

PHOENIX, June 26.-Phoenix is to- day playing a part in the big Europe an war. Count de Lestrange. head of the French remount inspection com mission, has arrived to inspect ap- proximately 1000 horses rounded up from all parts of the valley for ser vice in the French army.
 Bright and early this morning hors- es began arriving from all directions. It was like a real horse show They came in ones. in twos and by the dog ems.
 The work of checking the animals took all morning. Descriptions were first marked down. then the horses were tagged and turned loose in the corral. At noon approximately 600 horses had been turned into the corral and awaited the inspector and his as- sistants.
 Most of the animals on the scene are being held at S125. Some are sell ing as low as S7O, but practically eve ry owner is asking the maximum Of SIPS.
 The horses for artillery service must be fifteen hands one inch high, while those for cavalry are to be fif- teen hands high, yet if they are good and strong, they will be accepted if only fourteen hands three inches high. The artillery animals are to weigh between 115O and 125O pounds, and the cavalry 1050.
 All of the horses bought by the in- spector are to receive the French brand. The apparatus for the brand ing is at the stockyards.
 As soon as a carload is purchased they will be hurried either to Calves ton or New York. No persons con nected with the big purchase seems to know where the animals are to be shipped for transfer to the big ocean steamers.

 The Amargosa proper is but a small section of a large mineralized area.

Hence it is quite possible that the whole brecciated area may contain such ore in the sulphide zone.
