INDIANS WHO HAVE TURNED FARMERS

Originally I have been told the Omaha trbesfolk did not take kindly the white mans way of crop productions; and of the faction most strenuousy opposed to the order of life the famous old hunter White Horse. What, it ordered that he take the plow-he, too? We'll, he would do such thing Neither would he go church.
 At least he had at first been resolved; but seeing that Chief Iron Eye had commanded everybody attend Sunday services at Father Hamiltons Mis- sion. White Horse did not quite fit ignore the injunction He grudgingly obeyed he hardened scornfuly to the pulpit about the blessings of labor and how Sunday set apart as day of rest holy day. If you worked that day you would not prosper; the devil would make you trouble
 Now White Horse it is said, had been known to work; but coming home from Sunday vices at the Mission, he immediately seized a spade flung off his blanket and began dig aboring with patience. diligently, until the had gone down. Thus did he express defiance. Every Sunday he pressed it. he did nothing but toll and sweat.
 Meanwhile he devil, bad luck. He raised better garden than anybody. And oh, the joy of thar, Triumph unspeakabe, So inordnately proud was White Horse of his achievement that he could not help developing agricultural ambitions Afterward he farmed only Sunday but O all the Omaha people there not field laborer more zealous than he, farmer successful -Keene Abbott in Harpers Magazine for June.

in the Salt River valley and for which there was no other outlet Even then if you- talked mines all you would get would be a shrug of the shoulders and d mo cara DOT los minos. Now the time has come for the people of Phoenix to wake up if they want to make a mining center of Phoenix be- fore some other locality is selected for the necessary improvements which go to make the mining business reach the place where it naturally be- longs.
 Now smelter is spoken of for this section of the country While that proposition is good what the prospector needs is sampling works where he can dispose of 1000 pounds of ore or as much more as he can get instead of paying excessive freight, waiting until he gets hungry for his returns, which in good many cases are unsatisfactory and sometimes nil. This would be fine location for sampling works, for the reason that there are a number o1 good prospects, gold, silver, lead copper, tungstate and other minerals that are comparatively worthless tC the miner for lack of knowledge ol the same Now, good man, a com petent assayer. would in all proba bility show the miner certain valuable minerals that he now throws over tht dump.

Teachers and Marriaqe

The trustees and people of the Fowler school district in this county should be interested in a cent decision of the District court appeals Wash that rule automatically disqualifying from teaching teachers who marry is inconsistent with the school laws of the District That view upheld by the of appeals that unless the supreme has something different say the subject school teachers in Washington will not forfeit their positions by marrying
 As a practical result of the decision the school board will be compelled reinstate the pucky teacher who brought the test and fought it through It has not been made clear thus far whether the ruling sufficiently broad to cover generally the question of the eligibility of married to married whether it confined strictly to an interpretation of District Columbia school law. The broader question is of much import many thoughtful parents being unable agree with the theory that cebacy is requisite in the teaching of the young
 There still remains the possibility though that the decision would not affect a case where a teacher unmarried at the time of her employment and under standing the existence of a rule that marriage works
 forfeiture of the position of teacher, would appear to stand in the light of who had broken by her marriage Trustees who impose such rule, shortsighted they may be in supposing that mar riage detracts from the value of the service of teacher may still insist the specific performance of contract which is not contract of marriage.

Mr. Ruckman's Position

To the Editor of The Republican:
 Sir-I am being asked as to where am going to stand on the proposed prohibition amendment. l desire to state that I shall waste no time try ing to elect it or defeat it, but I shall spend my energies to defeat local Op- ton and wet men and continue to CO., operate with officers in law enforce ment, leaving the question of liquor shipments and legislation of all kinds on the liquor question to the legisla- ture.
 The court has decided that liquor can be introduced into the state and the legislature will now have clear sailing with any real regulative measure.
 The seventy ex-saloon keepers who met at Phoenix and launched the local option amendment set the pace and challenged the dry forces of the state and we shall meet them on theil own diamond and play the game tC the finish, and I predict that this vii l be the last saloon battle in Arizona but of course not the last liquor 1 battle.
 Let it be known of all men that ht | who says that he is in favor of loca option in Arizona says that he favor. the return of the saloon. To defeat local option is the req 1 issue and we shall waste no time oI anything else

Where the People
 May Have Hearing
The Hioh Sian


 To the Editor of the Arizona Repub- lican:
 Sir: I have read with great interest your editorial in this mornings issue entitled Phoenix and Mining. It is very hopeful and inspiring to see Phoenix even attempting to tag on al the tail end of the great movement that makes for the very best that is in Arizona. But there are difficulties almost insuperable to be overcome be- fore Phoenix can even hope to do more than to occupy a position com parable to that of the small boy who squints through the knot hole in the fence and with one eye sees what he can of the game. The small boy may he very ambitious but he IS rot in the game.
 One of the many barriers that pre- vents Phoenix from participating in the game, without the playing of which Arizona would be today but a sun hlistered waste in the Great American Desert, is the lack of un- derstanding of the mining business on | the part Of the Phoenix bankers. IL has been asserted. and l think the ex- l aggeratiOn is not great, that a min 1 ing man could not borrow S4 on q ' car load of lead bullion. If applica- | ton for loan were made and the | lead bullion were offered as security the PfOeniX banker would have [, retire to the privacy of his office tC consult his dictionary for the purpose l of Informing himself just what is leaC | bullion.
 The position of the Phoenix banker l, is Illustrated by the following incl dent. A local mining man who haC | spent ten or twelve thousand dollar developing q mining property in on Of the best districts. found himsel short of cash for the pay roll, and tn pay roll you know, requires cash. II went to a Phoenix banker and state' his case He mentioned, among othe valuable mining assets, that he ha developed 25,000 tons of concentratin ore.
 The Banker: Are these minini claims good ground?"
 The Mining Man: The best evel | and the mineralization eXtends--''
 The Banker: The soil. is it goo or rocky"
 Tho Mining Man; Yes, there ar some rocks on
 The Banker, Gmpatiently): IN good for alfalfa?"
 The Mining Man. (catching tn drifD: But l have white faced fin calf"
 The Banker, (relieved): "Ah. that better. We would consider the cal hut the ore -"
 The Mining Man: The ore is wort s200 900 of any mans money.
 The Banker: I'll have to ask yo to excuse me. I see awaiting me ( the rail farmer who is chewing tf end of straw of alfalfa. That's tt high sign.
