We know that certain industries

\ The statement has been made by
various men Of intelligence, as well
as by many of little knowledge, that
there are at present enough people
: in the United States to perform all
necessary work, and they would
probably be right If the seasonal
and cyclical movements of industry
could be wiped out, but the fact
remains that native Americans de-
cline with increasing disdain to
iwield a pick and shovel, and there
is little doubt in anyone's mind that
these implements must be welded
or industry will cease.
I Therefore, since the clerical class
does not care to. work with Its
hands, even at higher pay, the
only answer appears to lie in +ad-
ditionaf immigration. :
: TOilers Needed.
| What industry in general, and
construction in particular, needs
most of all, is diggers, shovelers,
filters, pushers and grunters to do
the work that Americans will not
do. All educational. methods are
producing clericals and :intellectuals
at sufficient speed. and certainly
we must have the Drawn and
muscle to support them.
The present 3 per cent immigra-
,tion law, which was enacted to
stop a threatened flood of immi-
grants after, the war, has actually
reduced the alien workers of the
country. Emigration has exceeded
immigration, and this in the face

YOUTHS TO BE TRAINED
FOR RAILROAD CAREERS

A comprehensive plan for the Sc
lection of energetic and ambitious
young men asijunior clerks and their
training by active experience for ad
yancement toward official positions
has been adopted by tie Southern Pa.
cifc Company.
This has been revealed by the an
nOuncement of President William
Sproule that Stanley P. Ward of the
the executive department has been
appointed junior clerk employment
agent OF the company.
Ward is supervising the selection
Of young men who desire to take UP
railroad careers. He is working in
cooperation with schools and col
leges on the Pacific coast.
The young workers are being aided
and encouraged in their studies of
technical matters in various branches
of railroad service.
Establishment Of the junior clerk
department is a natural development
Of the Southern Pacific's policy of
long standing whereby its officials
have been appointed from the ranks
Of employees. Men now serving in Of
fetal capacities have been with the
company many years, many OF then
beginning their careers as junior
clerks, stenographers and in similar
positions.
"The service of transportation pro-
vided by the railroads PLAYS a most
vital part in the welfare and progress
Of the country" Mr.. Sproule stated.
Consequently young men entering
upon careers in the business world
will find the future in this service
limited only by their own ability. 1.
aptly has been stated that in the
Southern Pacific organization tn,
T. nior clerk Of today is the official
of tomorrow.

In the column story that is suppos-
ed to refute the veracity of the snake

everybody is expected to believe it,
But as a matter of fact there is nc

penses of preparing for the dances,
II it were a money making scheme
there would be the most ideal oppor-
tunity by allowing Photographs of the
dance to be taken for a price, or OF
selling pictures of it, but neither is
allowed. Before the dances start
which are not oftener than n C a
year, the spectators are told to de
post their cameras and suspicious
visitors are searched. II any arr
caught smuggling them IN or attempt
ing to take pictures the cameras are
taken from them forcibly and thu
films destroyed forthwith.
The snake dance is IN ancient re
ligious rite among the Hopis, the
same as several other dances that
are held. 1t was in vogue before
the Hopis knew there was such 4
thing as money and before there
were autos to drive to Oraibi village
to see them. The Indians claim that
the fangs and venom are not re
moved; that orce one is bitten by
a rattler the poison loses its effect
and eventually, after two or more
bites, the victim becomes immune.
A Hopi cannot belong to the snake
dance clan and take part in the
snake dances until he has been bitten
by a Tattler
No news agency upon mere asser-
ton has a right to deny these state
ments, which are not impossible mol
unreasonable Indians have beer
accused of many atrocities, generally
with justice, but they are seldom
charged with utterirg falsehoods
The old saying that drunken men and
children tell the truth, may we'll bc
extended to include them. They are
great thieves. but not so much as
liars. That is the white man:
monopoly. If the snake dance were
a money making enterprise theirs
would be an excuse for lying abou:
it. but it is not, and until there is
better proof to the contrary thar
here cited, watch is mona at all, II
may we'll be assumed that the snake
dance is what it purports to be, the
real thing.

PAPER FROM SAGEBRUSH

Manufacture of paper from sage
brush is planned by a Boston fac
tory man now in Idaho for the pur
pose of starting a sagebrush paper
manufacturing enterprise. He says
the time Is near when settlers, in
stead of burning sagebrush and get
ting rid of it as a nuisance. will re
gard 1t as a resource and haul it to
the factories in quantity.
1t was less than thirty years ago
that the finest timber in the world
was slashed and burned to clear land
for farming in the northwest, as had
Leen done for a century in the middle
west, and what would now be worth
billions of dollars in money was re
duced to ashes and smoke. No doubt
in many of the better timbered area
the trees themselves would be worth
more in cash than the profits from
farming the land for ten or twenty
years under varying market cond;.
tions Everyo ne knew and admitted
that the day would come when the
timber would be of great va1ue, but
at the time there was no available
market for it, mills and transporta-
ton being unavailable. so what the
financially Impoverished homesteader
and small land owner did was 10
get rid of the giant trees by the first
and easiest means at hand and turn
his efforts to securing what ne could

in nature there arc many things
of no present value ard apparently
none in the future. There was talk
some twenty wears ago abont sage
brush being valuable for the rubber
content. The rubber Is known to he
here, but there seems to be to much
other rubber in the world that is
easier to get and more profitable to
handle. But nothing is impossible
and no doubt the TIM will come
when the lowly %sagetrush will find
its uFe and be turned into dividends

is willing to have his likeness pub
lished. especially where the artist is
a good one. When in 1906 Buel came
to Tonopah he did not have like
nesses of the different prominent
people of the place, so we adapted the
system Of him going to them and
proposing to put their pictures in

them having all their sketches on
hand for future cartoon work of a
more general and possibly not always
flattering nature. When Patsy Bow
Ter was approached he objected on
the ground that It might look like he
had sought or consented to this be-
ing done. So Buel suggested TO him
that the picture be drawn in a man
ner to appear that he was opposing
1t, to which Patsy readily assented.
The published cartoon showed a fine
likeness OF Patsy, but had him in the
act of slamming his door in the ar"

kind old face" for the occasion. The
chances are that ninety-nine out of
every 100 who saw that cartoon were
