BACrERIA PRODUCES IRON

[From the Columbus Dispatchl
Iron ore is the product of Il bug
or bacteria, according to the latest
scientific information upon the sub
jeCt. Millions of the bugs work for
millions of years, and 10 and behold
a little lump of iron ore is the re-
suit. Billions of them working for
billions of years, and there is your
iron mine, or great deposit of iron
ore. Prof +. G. Harder is the scien-
tist who gives us the information.
There is no occasion for doubling
the statement 1t is no stranger
than that the great coral reefs and
glorious islands in the sea are only
the dead bodies of other bugs, mic
roscopically small and piled on top
of each other to form the foundation
for even continents.
Bacteria is now a name to charm
with. Our blessings and our woes
are in the hands of these tiny bugs
are in the hands of these tiny bugs if
they have hands. We now know that
the water which we drink is their
abode. They account for the fer
mentation that takes place in the
world, for the life and growth of
plants, for the supply of food in the
SOIL for the rendering harmless of
our surroundings.
But now we may look at our great
steel bridges and at the whirling
wheels in our factories and remem-
ber that the metal is the product
of this same bacteria-an interest
ing contemplation, but borrowing an
expression from u cartoonist, it
doesn't mean anything. No one will
ever be able to capture the iron
making bacteria and set them to
work upon his farm, with the hope
of some day having an iron mine.

The Sonqs of the People

It was Berdnger, we believe. who declared that if he could write the songs of nation he did not care who made the laws meaning that his influence would be greater the people than any government could be- He lived mp to that declaration Some of his earlier songs landed him in jail but he lived to be honored by the French people. He accepted an cleo tion to the constituent assembly but Immediately signed and under the Second Empire steadfasty re- fused all political honors. Undoubtedly his songs did much to keep alive the spirit of democracy in France
 We suspect that the Cochise delegation desparing of influencing greatly the legislation at this session. have taken leaf from the note-b book of Beranger and are hopeful of swaying wider influence over the people of Arizona than they could exert through house bills, resolutions or memorials On this theory may account for the pertinacity with which they are supporting the marching song of Margaret Rowe Clifford in the face of the protests experts from all the musical clubs in the state.
