The Folly of Teachers

It is matter to be regretted that the irrational sentiments of Mir. Bryan the vital subject of tional defense found so much favor among the mem bers of the National Education Association in conven- ton in New York City. Do hard lessons of the experiences of other nations and of the teachings history amount to nothing? If common sense clear heads and sound reasoning not found among the teachers, where they to be found?
 An audience of teachers, in the mass ought to be the intelligent audience in the community, yet it audience of teachers that appauded Mir Bryan the echo when he declared that the temporary excitement of world war should not be allowed to disturb permanent educational system The school is not transient institutions will still abide with when the battle flags are folded" Judging from the newspaper accounts. every attack on military training made by the speaker was ap- plauded with the same enthusiasm
 While the feminine element in the seats may have led in the applause. the men fully in sympathy with them shown by the speeches of men like Phander P Claxton United States commissioner of education, pr. c. Ward Crampton director of physi- cal training in the New York public schools and others all of whom echoed Mir Bryans sentiments It Commissioner Claxton who made the prepos- terous assertion that mot for twenty years can any big nation think of invading us" Apparently he does not know that the only time in history when the

 But the most amazing thing is that school teach CTS of all classes in the community, should have overlooked the obvious lessons of the conflict abroad. the first of which is that good intentions and desire to be friendly terms with the rest of the world protection whatever against the greed and ambitions of strong nations Even Mr Bryan in his speeches has ignore the that pre- paredness has saved Holland and Switzerland from sharing in the terrible fate of Belgium. natural to suppose that teachers are somewhat familiar with history They ought know that greatest states men this country has had have all fted up their voices in earnest warnings against allowing the nation to invite attack by being unprepared

 So far as we know, there is treatment to induce recovery which if it takes place at all, of itself but during the stage of recovery massage and electricity employed.
 Just how the disease is communicated has not been determined. The stable fly known to be guilty of many crimes has been accused but has been made out against him. It is known though that the virus is quickly killed outside the body but it may for a long time persist in the mucuous membrane of healthy individuals who thus become carriers.

THE MINING INDUSTRY
Itor of the Republican.

To Editor of the Republican.
 Sir: Recently your paper stated that MT Thayer would give to the party or parties who. during the coming year developed the most promising mining property in this county. the sum of 5000 as a present or bonus Bonuses of this kind are usually given to create an interest, something that is lacking in this section. so far as the mining industry is concerned.
 It has been my lot to have spent most of the last thirty years in the various mineral producing states of the west and a comparison between them and Arizona is interesting
 In other states, the principal cities are the headquarters for the mining men and these cities have benefited greatly from the industry, a stranger visiting them will have pointed out to them many fine business blocks that were builded with mining money. A ride through the resident portion and the fine homes of both mining men and mine investors will be point ed out, you will recognize the names of some as merchants of the city, mention the fact, and the answer will | often be, "Oh, yes; he has store downtown, but he made most of his money from his mine investments. From the outside I have watched the growth of Arizona's mining in dustry, until today she is one of the principal, if not the leading, mineral producing state of the union.

 In his response, Hills opening words were about as follows: Gentle men, you have some fine buildings, and no doubt some very good busi- ness men and business organizations. but gentlemen. do you realize that it is your mines, your fields and your forests that make possible your cities and your city businessmen, and the more of your mines you help to de- velop, the more acres you encourage to be titled the larger will be your cities
 "We railroad men know that we will get every ton to haul; that the cities can give us. Hence, we prefer to spend our time and energies helping and encouraging the miner, the ranch CT and the timberman.'
 And so it is with Phoenix, your future depends upon the part you take in the development of your industry. mining. and the portion of the profits derived from that industry that you bring here. Continue to let all of the profits of your principal in dustry go east, and the cast will con- tinue to be prosperous and become greater. while Phoenix will become less prosperous and grow smaller SUBSCRIBER

OUR MIGHTIEST WAR SONG

The mightest of our songs is John Browns Body. ennobed by Julia Ward Howe into the Battle Hymn of the Republica:"
 Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the
 Lord;
 He is tramplng out the vintage where the grapes of
 wrath stored:
 He hath loosed the fateful lightning of his terrible
 swift sword:
 His truth is marching on"
 The origin of John Browns Body" is obscure and IL seems to have evolved itself almost by act of spontaneous generation, like the so-called negro sprituals and like the folk songs primitive peoples It has been traced back to improvsed camp meet ing tune fitted with rude words during the electoral campaign of 1860 which resulted in seating Lincoln in the presidential chair. When war broke out a lew months later, 1t was taken up by the Webster Regiment the Twelfth Massachusetts, and from these troops 1t soon spread to all the Union soldiers
 In my early boyhood I of regiments pass my fathers house in New York on their way from the west and the east to the south I recall distinctly the passing of one regiment, a thousand strong loggers from the Maine lumber camps stal- wart fellows every man six feet. As they marched sturdily in the fresh fairness of a spring morning they singing John Browns Body" with the original words, direct and unadorned John Browns body lies a-moldrng in the grave. John Browns body lies a-moldring in the grave, John Browns body lies a-moldrin in the grave.
 But his soul is marching on!"
 The massive simplicity of the made me feel as though were listening to the beating of mighty trip hammers, forging weapons for the good fight. And recall also that in the following fall that regiment return scant three hundred, and weary veterans, having left their comrades in the deadly swamps of Virginia.
 Before Mrs. Howe inspired write her sonorous and apocalytic lines, Henry Howard Brow nell had sought to give more literary form the original words; and many years later William Morris was moved to set his "Song of the Workers to the same simple and strenuous tune But it is with Mrs Howe's lines that the air is best known; and it was thus that Rudyard Kipng introduced it in the final pages of his Light That Failed" He explained to me that he felt forced to take the Battle Hymn of the Republic" nothing else would serve his purpose: q had to have the biggest thing there was!'-Brander Matthews in Everybodys Magazine.

the metropolis of other mining states was certainly impressng It is not even easy to get any information here on mining. No one is interested in the states principal industry.
 According to the Mining World Arizona mines have during the first five months of 1916 paid s9.23S ,936 in dividends. and the total dividends for the year will probably reach over 9 millions, and this is only from the listed properties. How much of that will come to Phoenix.
 I am told that people here do not take an interest in mining, because they have no money to invest 4 few years ago you induced congress to build the Roosevelt dam. Had you at that time borrowed the same amount of money, even if you had had to mortgage the whole state to get it. and judiciously invested it in develop ing your mineral resources, the profits by this time would have paid back the capital borrowed and have builded the dam besides. As it is am told that if you have to pay for the dam inside of twenty years, it will work d hardship.
 Some tell me they have invested, lost. and consider mining failure. Don't say that. for the records of your state show that had you invested wisely, or had seen through to fin ish some of the properties, you could today be building homes and business blocks in Phoenix. Instead, foreigners own your mines and take the profits { to their own homes

Democrats Asked to Get Riaht

We notice that in the resolutions adopted by the Arizona Republican Club at it's metng on Tuesday night there invitation to democrats to reg ster as republicans order that they might partici pate in the republican primary. We may safely as sert that it was purely by oversight that it was not added "and the Republican ticket at the general election" Of course, democrats vote the republican ticket whether they register as repub- cans or not Democrats could be of little aid to the republicans if they merely voted at the republican primaries for there will few republican contests at the primaries. In fact of the few, it may already be pretty we'll foreseen how they will end
 The mere registration of democrats republi- cans would be of little importance that it would hardly while for refer to it at all. and we would not do so but for similar invitation from democratic republicans to register demo- cras. In the the situation is different It is asked that the republicans take part in the primaries. only to enable democratic faction to beat another democratic faction. After that the re- publicans would be at liberty disregard the oath taken at registration and to vote their ticket; indeed we think the beaten faction would rather the republicans would the republican ticket at general election
 There factions in the republican party in this state this year. Though the party is more en- thusastc and confident than it has been be-
 
 that there will be a large turn out of republicans at the primary. We should like to out pouring there for the effect it will have the morale but that effect be produced equally well by registration of republicans for the general elections and for that purpose alone in sympathy with the resolutions. But would not be in sympathy at all with invitation democrats to register only that they might participate in republican primaries
 We do not think, after all, that the invitation which has been so generously extended by the Club was really necessary. Many democrats have already determined to vote the republican ticket, and many others will determine after the democratic primaries to do so and will do with without an invitation Altogether the invitation would have been improved it had urged the democrats to support the republ- can ticket in November and made it plain that they asked merely to participate in the Septem- Der primaries To do that alone would be inn moral an act as the the democratic factions asking republican voters to commit

Where Does the Money Go?

We have just received from the department of commerce analysis of the foreign commerce of the United States for the month of May. and for the eleven months ending with May. We concerned now only with the volume of imports since exports have no bearing on the question of raising revenue in which the democratic administration has been srenuousy engaged ever since it revised the tariff
 We find by the departments analysis that the value of imports May s229 91SS957 and for the eleven months ending with May s1,9520SSO72 Comparing these figures with those of imports before the we find from the American Year Book that we have for the full year of 1912, s16532 264934; for 1913, s83OOS2 234; for 1914 s1 893 657 In the full year 1915 ending June 3O the imports s167416974O. Eleven months of this period occupied by the Also the imports May those of any previous May they exceed those of May year by s80000,000
 If we add to the figures furnished us by the department for the eleven months of the present year ending with May an estimate of the June i'm ports of say $157,695,145. which the value of the imports for 1915, also under conditions we should have total of imports for the late fiscal year of s2,1O9,7SS,215 breaking all records.
 Yet in spite of this vast volume of imports to which democrats point with pride when considering it alone new revenues being sought by them in under the pretext that the has interfered with receipts. And here the figures furnished from official sources. Why in addition to the tariff received and to the "war tax" does the government need the s197 100000 which it is estimated will be raised by the revenue bill which lately passed the house?
