SONGS OF THE HOPIS.

took the daughter of the snake chief
to the underworld to his home on the
banks of the Grand Canyon.
The most interesting archaic songs
of the Hopi are probably those sung
by the snake priests when the heads
Of the reptiles are bathed at noen Of
the day the snake dance is performed.
They begin with low chant increas-
ing in vigor until they break forth
into war cry. Some of the songs
of the New Fire ceremony in Novem-
ber are more like an antiphonal chant
The two societies Of priests, who serve
as chorus respond to each other, as
the fire-makers kindle the fire by
rubbing two sticks together.
The Hopi do not sing in parts nor
harmonic their songs. 1t is impos-
sible to transcribe them on piano in
the natural scale, without introducing
tones they do not sing.

Col. F. S. Breen,
Editor of the Coconino Sun,
Flagstaff, Arizona.
Dear Colonel: On the first page of
the issue of your paper of July IL,
you have an article headed County
and city reduce expense and lower
taxes" In carefully reading over that
part of the article which pertains TO
sheep valuations, it appears to US that
a wrong impression regarding this
matter is liable to be created in the
minds of a good many people who are
perhaps not fully informed on this
subject.
The valuation on sheep throughout
the state during 1923 was SIS per head;
this was also the valuation for 1921
1922. Last December when the asses
sors met at Yuma for the purpose OF
placing uniform valuations for taxa
tion purposes on various classes of
taxable property in Arizona, they ar
bitrarily raised the valuation to So
per head. This valuation, however, is
not final until the state tax commits
sion affirns it. If it is not affirmed,
Coconino county will still have the
same valuation, as far as sheep are
concerned, as they had in 1928, with
small increase due to the fact that
this county has gained several thous-
and head of sheep formerly assessed
in other counties.
Your article states that if the state
orders a reduction in the present fig
ure of $6, the Coconino county valua-
ton will be reduced about $240,00O,
resulting in the tax rate being slightly
higher than in 1923. This is mislead-

SHERIFF CAMPBELL SAYS
HIS DUTY IS TO ENFORCE
PROHIB LAW AND HE WILL

NV sentiments and policy in respect
to the enforcement of the prohibition
law are fully expressed in the follow
ing statement made recently Dy
Sheriff Brown, president OF tne WILT
nesota Sheriff's association:
ssThe problem before us TODAY Is
not whether or not we like prohibition,
but of law enforcement. If you don't
ike the law, repeal it, but so long as
Il is the law. see that is enforced.
I believe Sheriff Browns attitude
ought to be that of every federal,
state and county officer of the land.
The prohibition law is on our statute
books. 1t lis just as much law as
those against murder, robbery and
bribery, and it must be enforced just
as carefully and severely as those
laws are enforced.
Anybody has the legal and nlorai
right to seek to have any law rep
ealed, but until a law is repealed at
must be enforced, or we Will De
breeders of anarchists and the worst
kind of traitors. If you believe IN
the law. enforce it and seek to keep
it on the books. If you do not believe
in the law, try to have it repealed.
But in the meantime remember that
your duty is in obeying the law.
Remember also that my duty as
long as the prohibition law is on the
statute books is to enforce 1t. ! have
sworn to uphold the law. A promise
made is debt still to be paid.
MY record in office has been con-
sistent with my sworn duty. 1t Is
on that record, and with the promise
to continue doing my sworn duty that
am a candidate for denomination.

YOUNG WON'T RUN ON
TICKET WITH La TOILETTE

George u. Young, territorial secre-
tary of state and progressive candi-
date for governor In 1914, has made
it known that he would not accept
the nomination for governorship on
La Toilette ticket, and the supporters
OF the Wisconsin senator have decided
to make plans along other lines.
The railroad brotherhood leaders in
the state are expected to hold meet
at Phoenix early next week to take up
the matter of endorsing Governor
Hunt for governor and putting La
Toilette electors in the field. AS they
consider the governor will have no
opposition in the primary except Sam
uell, and are of the opinion that ne
easily will defeat the lone opponent,
the railroad leaders do not think the
executive needs their aid in the pri-
mary election. OF course, if someone
with a chance of winning were ito
come out, it would upset their plans.

FAMOUS HERESIES
By R. II. TINGLEY The Eastern Versus the Western
 Church


 The Council of Nice, in 325-the first ecumenical council Of the church did not, as was expected, silence the heretics and schismatics for all time. On the contrary, they have been busy ever since and are still at 1t.
 Minor disputes immediately arose in matters of doctrine. Nestorius dneied that Mary was the Mother of God. Pierce and acrimonious debates centred about the nature of Christ After years of painful mutual ana themas, between the theologians of the warning schools, the Council of Chal- cedon decreed. in 151, that Christ had one person in two natures, not that He was two persons possessed of two natures. and not as Eutyches had maintained, one person and one nature flor the teaching of the latter doctrine it's author and adherents were mathematical as heretics.
 The first Council of Nice had neg lected to settle the status of the Holy GhOst-and it has never yet been set tiled to the satisfaction of all, faiths. Gregory of Nazianzus, one of the fathers of the eastern church about generation after the time of Arius held ana maintained that the Holy Ghost was made "as life-giving Lord. proceeding from the Father, and to be worshipped and glorified with the Father and the Son." On the other hand, western theologians. Epiphanius and Augustine, held the Holy Ghost to he, derived from the Father and the Son"
 At the Council of Toledo. in 5S9 this latter Filioque as if was called--was incorporated into the confession of the western church, The refusal of the eastern. or Greek church. to adopt this version led to a split which has never been reconciled. The split is not generally called d heresy,

 In addition, he bequeathed his library of 50.000 volumes and 3.556 manuscripts.
