ESPECIAL cosss poNoshca TO MORNING JOURNAL
Santa re, May 27,--Of exceeding
interest to New Mexico Is the ruling
of the attorney general Of Arizona that
the Indians may be taxed on herds OF
livestock not within the Indian res
ervations Both in ARIZONA and New
Mexico the Indians Craze large herds
of livestock outside of the reserva-

rights and considerable other prop

although entering into competition
with other people and relying upon
the protection of the laws and gov
eminent of the state.
In Arizona notice was, given the
Navajos to drive their stock back to
the reservation and while they sue
cceded in collecting a portion Of their
herds, some 10000 head are still la

some in cash. Navajo Charley, one

ENGLISH DIPLOMACY.

There is no gainsaying the fact that
in the field Of diplomacy England has
almost, IL not fully. made up for her
shortcomings in the sphere OF mill
tary activity. Where her generals
have fallen short her ministers have
excelIed themselves.
In the violation OF the rights OF
neutrals on the high seas since the
beginning OF the present war England
has been quite as fragrant an often
der as Germany. But England has
confined those violations to matters
involving property and commerce
alone, and has been careful to main
tain a wholly different attitude where
human life was involved. She has
realized that civilized nations hess,
tato long time before going to war
over matters in which nothing more
than dollars and cents WAS at stake,
and has gone MS far In her disregard
OF the trade rights Of neutrals on the
sea az she dared.
In many respects English diplom-
ncy has been more tantalizing in its
cool impertinence than that of the
German foreign office. Underlying
the fine phrases OF her formal inter.
course with this government there
has been a calm assumption Of SUI
periority that was little short OF Inn
pudent In its patronizing tone. II her
violations Of the rights of this coun-
try had involved the lives of Ameri-
can citizens instead OF mere prop
erty, the patience Of the people OF the
United states would doubtless have
long since been taxed TO the break
Ing point
But English diplomacy measured
With accuracy the temper of the
American people, and where Ger
many forced matters to the point that
the severance Of diplomatic relations
was threatened, England still enjoys
ut least the passive friendship Of the
people of this country.

ANCIENT CHINESE MAxMs.

American school children Of today

When you know your errors, then re-

And when you have made acquisitions

A foot OF precious jade stone is not to

But for an inch of time you ought

Always rising early to attend to the
comfort of your parents;
Then your virtue will rival the epi-

And in rich eSuberance be Xix the

Be very cautious in speaking hastily

In epistolary correspondence be con-

And you will obtain eternal peace and

DOOM or THE CHESTNUT TREE.


our native chestnut tree, for all it's
long tenure OF our hills and pastures,
is officially reported as facing COM
plete extinction. "Cut at once and
market quickly" is the state forester's
advice.
Unlike moth and borer, the bacter-
ial blight that is killing the chestnut
trees attacks with an infection as sub
tie as the breath Of pestilence. The
disease is working across the state
from west to east as If with prevail
ing winds. It has already overrun
five counties, and has established CEN
tiers through the rest. Az one in
every six of our timber trees is a
chestnut, the commercial loss In many
areas will be severe. No more farm
ers will send their boys and girls 10
college, winter by winter, from the
sale Of ties and planks and posts from
the rapidly growing stands Of straight
chestnuts
But the sentimental loss will entail
even more regret. The chestnut tree,
like its close cousins, the beech ana
oak, has made its own place In our
rugged New England life. It enters
our stories and poems and flreside
talk as olive and palm enter the leg
ends and songs of the Mediterranean.
Its furrowed bark and open branch
ing accord with our scenery and eli
mate as the durability and bold figure
Of its wood accord with the old style
virtues of New ifnglanders them
selves Its fruit Is the sweetest OF all
our nuts. In the farmers homely
calendar Its blossoming has always
marked the time for the sowing OF
hnckwheat; the parting of its burrs
gives the signal for the uncertain hus-
handries between frost and freeze.
With the disappearance of the chest
nut tree from our landscapes the
boom New England movement will
lose one OF its attractive assets.
