to whom the place was offered are

terian missionary among the Indians,

a surprise to DR.. Lay and DR.. Rule,

sidy.
DR.. Rule, declaring he declined the
preferred place because he had come
to Phoenix ito build new Presby-

The proffer was rendered to Dr.
Rule after his name had been rec
commended by many citizens whose
advice on the matter was sought, it
was said by close friends of Senator
Cameron. Among those who warm
I ly recommended DR.. Rule for the
place was Rev. Dirk Lay of Sacaton,
Presbyterian missionary among the
Indians, to whom the place also was
offered DR.. Lay, because of the
time he has given to securing enact
ment of the San Carlos bill, felt that
his work among the Indians, particu-
larly with the approaching prosperity
to be brought by the irrigation work,
demanded that he give his time to
them. DR.. Lay spent long period
in Washington working for the San
Carlos measure, personally calling to
the attention of members of Congress
that the San Carlos bill would right
wrong which had been done In
dians by failing to provide them with
water for their farming lands.

who would make Arizona as bone

requires, was desired"

AN INSPECTOR WHO INsPEcTs

Tom Foster, state mine inspector,
has announced his candidacy for re-
election. splendid record entities
Mr.. Foster to a second term. He
has been an inspecting inspector
throughout his term. something of an
anomaly in that office in Arizona.
We have had too many inspectors in
the past who did their inspecting at
long range from behind roll top desk
in the Capitol building at Phoenix.
Early in his present term Tom Fos-
ographer could quite capably attend
to the routine matters coming into
his Office and that he intended to
spend most of his time in the field
inspecting mines, and that the Phoe'
nix office would see little of him dur
ing his term.
He has carried out that policy. Fos-
ter has visited more Arizona mines,
and oftener, by wide margin, than
any of his predecessors in the office.
He has impartially and fearlessly en-
forced safety regulations on large
mine owners as we'll as small, and
has insisted on the observance of the
laws enacted for the safety and health
of miners in all cases.
AS a result Arizona miners have
had the hazards of their occupation
reduced very considerably in scores
of cases, and unnecessary risks have
been largely eliminated. Miami Sill
