The Wealth of GiIa

The "Gila Resources edition of the Arizona Record of Globe, thrtysx pages, exclusive of the regular edition is creditable showing not only the enterprise of Mir Charles E.. Hogue, the editor and manager of the Record, but also of the great resources of Gila county and of progress siveness of Globe and it's neighbor the great mining of Miami. The two great industries of Gila county, mining and live stock, are fully and ac- curately described The former is dealt with by districts and thoroughly that the resources edition is almost handbook of the mining indus try of that and adjoining counties What has been done in the good roads movement is the subject of an interesting article
 We notice, too, that the resources edition" in- cludes the Roosevelt Dam and lake. We suppose there is no legal or geographical why the great reservoir may not be claimed GilL county. inasmuch as it lies in that county, though Marcopa had to pay for the site that have been con siderng it as appurtenant to Maricopa. However, will not quarrel with Gla about it. We will take the water and neghbor may keep the structure itself the surrounding scenery though We suspect that sometime will have pay taxes the dam.
 The resources edition is copiously Illustrated with scenes of the beautiful and striking natural and prehistoric wonders of that county of scenes in Globe and Miami and of the great reduction works there and at the larger camps in adjacent counties
 We hope that the readers of the Record have availed themselves opportunity to spread the fame of the county by sending copies of the re sources edition friends and acquaintances in all parts of the world.

The Navy League

As the inquiry by the house committee on naval affairs proceeds, the opposition which had been raised to the Navy League of the United States dminishes The weakness of the American navy both in personnel, in the number and character of the ships and their armament becomes ar- parent. The statement of Admiral WinsloW on Thursday that a good enemy battleship could dis pose of entire Pacific fleet must set the Amer iCan people to thinking Naval officers are throw Ing Off the restraint that put upon them dur ing the cruise of the good ship 'Piffle' under the command of Mir. Bryan and his lieutenant Seere- tary Daniels.
 Backed by the expert testimony of eminent naval officers the work of this patriotic organization Navy League, in establishing itself as our best peace society" will be easier, charge of the pacifists that the league is composed men with a selfish interest in preparedness and the expansion of the navy, will lose force The league can appeal now more directly and strongly to a disillusioned people who may length be brought out of their dream of security and disarmament to demand an adequate navy.

An Inconsistency

They were told that after the restoration of order in Mexico this gov ernment would probably assist them in securing in demnity for what they had suffered Thus was definitely established policy of protection of American citizens in the war zone of foreign country
 Now our government for the moment is in sistent that American citizens shall be held sacred on board the vessels of belligerents on which they have become passengers for business or pleasure when there neutral vessels on which they can travel with, perhaps, a little more discomfort and little less speedily. A war zone at sea may be any place outside three mile limit of a neutral country where vessel of a bellgerent flies it's soil of the country represented by that flag Our government might with equal force demand that American citizens should be protected from harm in belligerent city under attack; with equal it could complain of incidental injury to American citizens in the course of such attack.
 It may be said though, that under international agreement our citizens have a right to take passage on any vessel not actually participating intend

AIMLESS LIVES

How many of us have sufficient direction to lives? Outside of the fundamental necessities sup port and education for children it would be diff cult for the majority to give scheme of existence planned to bring the fullest value to life in it's chang ing phases. On the intellectual and spiritual side the existence of most is not unlike that depicted in the pleasing ditty:
 "A mother chasing her boy round the room; she was chasing her boy round the room; and while she was chasing her boy round the room, she chasing her boy round the room
 The direction in early childhood, $ far not taken care of by natural tendencies is in the hands of parents and teachers often conducted in the above quoted masterpiece. In youth often have an ideal but by middle it has frequently been replaced by mere ambition In age how many of us are fit to enjoy the possibilities of contemplation thus suggested in Maccabees:
 'The ancient in the streets
 They all communed together O: good things
 Life ought to be like a great drama reaching it's height at the end of the third act but requiring last two acts to carfy it's meaning, round story, and complete it's unity.-Harper's Weekly.

LONDON, Sept 3-That Greece will maintain her policy of benevo- lent neutrality toward the allies is the word received here today from Athens The information came from an undoubtedly authentic source, and is to the effect that the announcement of the mainten- ance of Grecian neutrality came after conference between King Constantine, of Greece. and Pre- mier Zamias
 The premier announced after the conference that the Greeks will re main as friendly toward the allies as they have been in the past while awaiting the outcome of event as they are now progressing. Which means that the Greek government will do nothing to oppose the allied gov ernments in any of their undertak ings on Greek soil, but that the Greek army will not participate in any of the fighting beyond doing what 1t can alone to keep the Bull garian forces from occupying Greek fortresses.
