SHOULD READ THE BIBLE

President Wilson recommends
the reading of the Bible in a
message to our soldiers and sail
ors. He says:
''The Bible is the word of life,
| beg that you will read it and
find this out for yourselves-read,
not little snatches here and there,
but long passages that will really
be the road to the heart of it.
You will find it full of real men
and women not only but of things
you have wondered about and
been troubled about all your life,
as men have been always; and
the more you read the more it
will become plain to you what
things are worth while and what
are not. what things make men
happy-loyalty, right dealings,
speaking the truth, readiness to
give everything for what they
think their duty, and, most of all,
the wish that they may have the
real approval of the Christ, who
gave everything for them and
the things that are guaranteed
to make men unhappy selfish
ness, cowardice, greed and every
thing that is low and mean.
When you have read the Bible
you will know that it is the Word
of God, because you will have
found it the key to your own
heart, your own happiness and
your own duty"

ing the public into Uncle Sans
confidence as to why he is fight
ing and how he is fighting-is to
be the purpose of the new organ
ization of ARIZONA Four-Minute
Men," which has inaugurated a
speaking campaign throughout
the State.
According to a telegram from
the National Council of Defense
to the Arizona State Council of
Defense, under whose auspices
the Statewide speaking cam
paign has been inaugurated, the
duties of the scores of volunteer
orators whose services have been
enlisted will be:
l. To inform the public fully
and clearly regarding the causes
which caused the entry of the
United States into the war.
2. To instill into every Ameri-
can that can be reached an en-
thusiastic belief in the righteous
ness of our cause and the need
of prompt and universal support
of our government.
In it's effort to enlighten Ameri-
cans as to the real causes of
Americas entry into the war, it
is said that -Four Minute Men"
speakers, with the governments
permission, will make public
hereto unpublished data regard
ing Germany's long continued
unfriendly attitude toward the
United States, both before and
after the commencement of the
war; the development OF the
German spy system in the United
States; outrages by Germany
against this country since the
commencement of the European
war. and real facts regarding
German inhumanity conducting
the war.
The campaign will include
every motion picture theater,
every school house, and, in fact,
every place where public meet
ings are held. Corps of speakers
are now being organized in each
county of the State under the
direction of George Stoneman,
appointed State Chairman of the
Arizona Four Minute Men by the
National Council of Defense.

started a race riot at Houston,
Texas, last Thursday night, in
which II persons were killed,
should get what is coming to
them on a charge of mutiny dur
ing war. Their court martial
sentence should be carried out as
the sun rises. There is no place
in the national army for thugs,
white or black, and our black

by the military authorities in the
speedy punishment of these black
murderers that will make the

CREENLEE COUNTY'S PROBLEM

SUPERVISORS VI TreeTllec OOuilly
ordering the county attorney to
draw up an order prohibiting any
man who can get work and re-
fuses to work to remain in any
town in the county.
We are now in war and no
community in this State or in the
nation can afford to carry along
a lot of idle men, especially those
who vote themselves into idle
ness, when men are needed in
every field of labor.
If the miners in the Morenci-
Clifton district refuse to work,
they should be haled into court
and charged with vagrancy.
Either they should be made to
work or they should be treated
as vags.
No union man with a drop of
American blood in his veins will
take advantage of conditions
when his country is at war to
preserve the freedom of demo-
cracy, which is the heart and
soul of every union labor organ
ization. The class of men who
voted to continue the strike in
the Morenci-C Clifton district are
not Americans. They cannot be
drafted into the military service
and they have no sympathy for
American institutions. In their
own country, if they are Italians,
they would either be in the army
or working for wages that bare
ly provide for themselves or
families. If they are Mexicans,
they would either be bandits or
working for the smallest wages
paid to labor in any country of
the world, except India. They
improved their condition as soon
as they secured work in the mines
of Greenlee county, and in their
last strike, they secured a settle
ment that placed them far above
their fellow labOrers in their own
country. These people have no
sympathy for anything Ameri-
can. except the American dollar,
which is worth 100 cents, while
the dollar of their own country
is worth less than so cents.
What Greenlee county should
really do in this situation is to
get busy and solve the problem
of an organization of idle men,
who are fed with the dollars of
Germany to prevent necessary
industry in the conduct of the
war for freedom from Prussian
rule. There are not enough un-
ion miners at work in the mines
Of every State in the Union to
provide by assessment on their
wages to house, clothe and feed
the strikers in Greenlee county,
in Gila county and in other places
in the different states of the
Union. But there seems to be
plenty of money for the leaders,
though the members of the or
ganization may not be doing so
well, and as long as the leaders
even are provided with the dol
ars, strikes will be in order and
Industries essential to our sue
cess in the war will continue to
be hampered, and the most in
serested person in keeping the
mines, factories and other indus
,ries in idleness, is the Kaiser.
If the union miners of the
are unable to support all
the strikers in the mining dis
tricts and yet there is money to
keep these men in idleness,
where does this money come
from? We believe it comes from
the enemies of our country-the
peace shouters and Germany.
Our sympathies cannot 90 to
men who are using unionism as a
cloak to hide their real reason
for causing idleness in the in
1ustries of our country, whether
It is in the mines of Greenlee,
ella or other counties in the
State, or in any industry any
where in our country.

COAL DEALERS
GET A SCARE
GARFIELD WILL TAKE BUSINESS
COMPLETELY AWAY FROM
THOSE WHO OPPOSE.

Washington. Dec. S.-Coal dealers
who refuse to cooperate with the fuel
administration in its efforts To obtain
distribution of fuel will be put out OF
business. This war made clear tonight
in statement by Fuei Administrator
Garfield, giving the text of a sharp tele-
gram addressed to a Philadelphia firm
accused of declining to aid the admin
istration. The telegram said:
Administration is advised you re-
fuse to cooperate with federal fuel ad-
ministrator. If this is the case admin
istration will take steps to have all
coal shipped to you diverted to other
dealers who are willing to cooperate
with this administration in relieving
the whole situation.
1T is not "A time when dealers can
run their own business as they see
fit, and cooperation must be given If
the efforts of this administration is to
be successful. Unless advice that you
are willing to cooperate is given by
four o'clock this afternoon. we will
arrange to have all your coal now in
transit diverted TO other dealers in your
city"
The firm replied that the charges
made against IL were false. and that il
was ready to cooperate fully.
