THE FARMER AND THE TARIFF

AS nexer before the farmers
are studying political methods
and remedies. Their representa-
tives in Congress are getting a
good deal of publicity and are
praised or blamed according to
the point of view.
And one of the remedies to
which the farmers are particu-
larly pinning their faith is the
tariff.
But some of them who are
studying the present proposed
tariff bill have come TO realize the
striking truth that the farmer is
p consumer as well as producer.

TUESDAY. MARCH 2s. 1922.
Is THE GOVERNMENT READYl

United States Ready for
Miners Strike" SAYS head line.
The phrase IS worth thinking
over. How ready is the United
States for a miners strike? How
ready has the United States ever
been for such calamity, - for
the threat, if not the occurrence,
is periodical?
The news item says there is a
supply OF coal. That is but par
tial preparation. There Will not
be coal enough to prevent short
age later if the strike is prolong-
ed as threatened. A shortage is
a convenient lever for prying
more money out OF the pockets
of the people.
And further preparation is the
governments program. his
program" says the article. rs
based on direct action against
any group or organization winch
interferes with the production OF
coal needed for the public inter
est"
The wording seems to be in
terpreted narrowly by the gov
eminent. Every ton of coal
mined is needed for this Inter
est" That is what makes a mi
ners' strike of so much import
ance. Such strike can never be
a private quarrel. But a member
of the Presidents cabinet is quot
ed as saying that by the public
interest" the government means
the interests OF public utilities.
transportation companies, the
navy, the merchant marine, and
interests of like public nature. 1t
should add the interests OF tire
kitchen cook stoves, the family
furnaces, the baseburners giving
cheer and comfort to millions OF
homes. The interests of the
folks in these homes are quite as
important as the interests OF the
navy and of the railroads. Is the
government prepared to safe
guard their interests? 1t is UNI
doubtedly most anxious to do
everything possible to that end.
The program seems to con-
template stopping strikers from
interfering with the working of
mines. This, too, would doubt
less be justified on the ground OF
protecting public interests. 1t is
but partial and inadequate pro-
lection. 1t gives the government
the unfortunate appearance OF
taking sides with the mine opera
tors against the miners, an intent
which the authorities probably
would deny, and Justly so.
There is but one position which
the government can occupy with
dignity and right: That is the
attitude which government as
sumes in the case of other dis
putes and quarrels arising among
citizens. The government inves-I
tigates, sits in Judgment and de-
livers decision according to the
dictates of justice. The public
interest" demands that the gov
eminent shall do this thing now.
Unless it is prepared for this
duty it can not truly announce
that it is prepared for the miners
strike.

Gangway For Firemen

In regard to providing right OF way
for fire apparatus ii was suggested
that 80 yards be the zone limit for
The approach OF vehicles to the scene
of fire, in order that the firemen
would not he hampered in their work,
md also that vehicles should be
brought TO a stop on the right side of
streets when a fire alarm is sounded,
and To remain at a standstill until
the fire-nghters have passed the i'm
mediate vicinity.
Other suggestions made were that
parking on the circles should be only
Oh the outside of those thorough
fares: that automobiles be not per-
mitted to make turns within a block,
and also that restriction be placed
on turning into College avenue from
Prince George street. This street in
tersection is regarded as the most
dangerous in the city, and the sug-
gestion, il adopted, would mean. that
vehicles would be compelled to make
a detour hy way of King George
street on the one end. and North, or
Bladen streets or the Governors and

tosian hotel, after useful existence
Of 30 years, has recalled incidents
Of q dastardly murder which led up
n the most sensational lynching in
the history OF Whitman county.
Since the burning of the pioneer hos
tolry old-time citizens who were here
when the building was constructed
in 1892 have spun many reminiscent
earns of the early history of the
building and OF the city, institutions
which were closely linked in the days
when Pullman was struggling for an
existence and when the construction
of a three story hotel marked an
epoch of no small Importance.
And of the early day stories which
have been unfolded since the his
torical hotel became a mass Of
smouldering ruins, the murder of
Amos B. Cooper and the subsequent
lvnching OF his alleged slayer, George
F Parker, have occupied the lime
light.
Mr.. Cooper was one of Pullman S
most respected citizens, and manager
of Blackman Bros. store He was
murdered in cold blood by a burglar
who had entered his room in the
Artesian hotel early in the morning
of October II, 1898, only a few
months after the hotel had been
opened to the public. Suspicion
pointed to George f. Parker. who
had occupied a nearby room on the
night of the murder. having regis
tered from Starbuck, and after an
Indignation meeting of citizens had
been held Parker was placed under
arrest, charged with the murder.
Parker went on trial at Colfax

prosperity at the Vulture mine near
Wickenburg and decided to go there.
On his way to the mine he stopped
in the Salt River valley for short
while and worked for several days
for Jack SwiIling.
Meets Mrs. Gray
He met Mrs. Columbus III. Gray,
the first woman settler in the valley,
and got job driving herd Of cattle
to the Vulture mine, where they were
to be used for work teams. Arriving
at the mine, Mr.. Elders was given a
job herding the bull teams. This job
lasted until the Indians drove the
cattle off sinto the mountains. He
was later made a guard, accompany
ing the bullion shipments out of the
mine to Wickenburg.
Mr.. Elders is a great admirer of
Henry Wickenburg, the father of
Maricopa county" and tells many in
cidents Of the old mans bravery. At
one time, Mr.. Elders tells, Wicken-
burg issued a call for help in cllas-
ing down a band of Indians which
had stolen a herd of cattle from the
camp. Finding no one willing TO
accompany him on the chase, Mr..
Wickenburg started out alone and
late in the day found where the In
dians had established camp. Wait
ing until dark. Wickenburg sneaked
up close to the encampnent and hid
himself at a spot where he could
overlook the entire camp.
AT daybreak,. when the Indians
were making the fires for their NOR
ming meal, Wickenburg opened fire
on them as fast as he could operate
his guns. The Indians, believing that
large party of white men was after
them, fled from the camp leaving al
their possessions. Wickenburg there
upon leisurely drove his stock back
to the mines.
After the famous Wickenburg mas
sacre, which created great excite
ment in the east due to the death OF
a Boston youth. Mr.. Elders helped
carry the dead travellers back to the
settlement. He still retains, how
ever, a respect for the red man, be-
lieving that the treachery and hos
tility shown by them in the early
days was due to the treatment they
received at the hands OF the white
settlers.

MANY INTERESTING
EARLY DAY TALES

Few battles, In the true sense Of
the word, were fought between the
Indians and white men in the early
days OF Arizona, according to NJ. NJ.
Elders. OF 1920 Grand avenue. who
came to Arizona in October, 1868.
Fights with the hostiles were al
most invariably conducted on the
run or from ambush, Mr. Elders de-
clares. Battles were always one
sided. Either the Indians were in the
majority and caused the white men
to flee. or the settlers were numeri-
cally superior and chased the Indians.
Instead of the large enga agements
told in fiction, the killings usually
amounted to the ambushing by a
large party of Indians of q small
number of whites, or vice versa.
During the years that Mr.. Elders
acted as armed escort for express
and bullion shipments out of the
Vulture mine, he never met with an
attack by the Indians.
Mr.. Elders left Arkansas inmedi-
ately after the Civil war and started
for the west. He had no particular
destination in view but upon reach
ing Maricopa Wells he heard of the

part of one of Phoenix most impor-
nkant business blocks in the summer
of-5GS6 and resulted in popular agi-
tation leading up to the organization
Of the Phoenix volunteer fire depart
ment on Aug. II of that year.
The fire department at first con-
sisted of what was known as Phoe-
nix Engine Co. No. I. with an indef-
mite number of members. A special
city election was held Sept. 81 Of the
same year at which the people of
Phoenix voted in favor of a bond is
sue to procure funds TO purchase ap-
paratus to properly equip an eff
cient fire fighting force.
The bonds We're eagerly bought up
at a premium and as a result of the
letting of contracts the apparatus ar
rived and was placed in service in
the spring of 1887.
In anticipation of the arrival Of
the new apparatus, the city council in
February, 81, adopted a resolution
enlarging the company and dividing
it into three divisions, to be known
as Phoenix Engine Co. No. /. Phoe-
nix Hose Cart No. l, and Phoenix

The secretary OF the Pioneer Hose
company made a communication to
the city council on March 4. 1887.
which follows:
Gentlemen: In conformity with a
resolution made and adopted by Pie
neer Hose company at a meeting Of
its members regularly held, the sec
retary was instructed to notify your
honorable body that we now have a
perfect organization and respectfully
apply for equipments consisting OF
20 uniforms and a hose carriage; also
that with those in the hands of the
company the members will stand
ready to distinguish themselves at
each and every opportunity"
A resolution was adopted August
"a, 1894, enlarging the organization to
consist of three hose companies. one
hook and ladder company. one en-
gine company and such other COM
panies as might thereafter be ad-
mitted. 1t was resolved that each
company should consist of not more
than 25 active members. all OF whom
were TO be more than Il years of
age. A recommendation was adopt
ed at this time admitting Victor
Hose Co. No TO the organization.
Much Efficient Work
During its long period of service
the volunteer organization distin-
guished itself with efficient work in
extinguishing many fires. Innumer-
able Instances of heroism are record
ed in which the occupants of burn
ing buildings were saved from death
