THE HOMES OF A
E
RUINS OF OUR UNKNOWN AM
ERICAN ANCESTERS
A Civilization That Vanished Be
fore America Was Founded
In December's Sunset 'are two
splendid pictures of the cliff ruins
and under one Uio statement that
these ruins contain stairways
from one chamber to another,
fire places and other evidences of
an advanced stage of civilization
ol these men ol the stone acre
I would like the writer to tell me
where these ruins are that have
the stairways from one chamber
to another. I would like to know
where the ruins are that have
these chambers and I would like
to know where the fireplaces are
I have seen the finest of the
cliff dwellers' ruins in this coun
try, and 1 have climbed into hun
dreds of chambers, but I never
saw a stairway or a fireplace or
anything that could be called ei
ther.
I have seen both of the places
pictured in Sunset excepting the
Indian wno stands on the rock,
and there are no heating systems
or open stairways in these homes.
And I havo an idea this Indian is
an Isleta Pueblo borrowed for the
occasion to make a setting. Pot
tery, yes, tons of it, and stone im
plements almost innumerable,
but the stairways and stoves
lead me to them.
In Las Vegas I ran into a
"trotter." His father fell over a
gold mine one day and he wanted
to see what money could do to
Willie. So the old man workod the
mine and Willie worked the old
man. lie had been down to Mexi
co City and other places. He had
seen all there was to see in this
country and was going abroad. .
This was before I had been to
the cliff ruins, and I asked him
about them. Ho said they were not
worth while; that there were some
holes in the hills where some sav
ages lived one day, and that was
all, and that all that made them
interesting was the mystery sur
rounding. He said he had seen the
stone river, Zuni, tho mummy
caves, the cliff ruins and the
whole bunch and none of them
were worth whilo except the
grand canyon.
And later on when I visited
these American wonders, I won
dered what excuse his parents
could havo had for bringing this
fool critic into tho world. A man
with blood in his veins who does
not think these pluoos are "worth
while," should be exiled to Homo.
Thero IS a stairway i.in the
Stone city of I ho Santa Clara, but
the little cliff dwellers did not
build it. Nature made it, and the
natives improved it a little. 1
It is much like our Seventh
street stairway. 1 That is Nature
left a little opening where a trail
eouhUbo zig-zagged, and I sup
pose uio city called a special
election and voted a three mill
tax to improve it.
It's "just a path, but it took
nioccasiued feet thousands of
years to make it what it is today

much like an old cow trail up a
mountain.
Wherever tho path was sleen or

The first sight was a group of
uio imesi specimens ol pottery

seen. They simply laid there in a
nig uio water jars, postals

Once a great four or five story
building had stood there. 11 had
fallen into a great stone pile. The
government s otiioais hud clear

most of tho lirst story walls yet
stood.
One can't tell it from the end of

building cut into little pens, and
the connection of ono to another
was a little hole two feet wide by
three feet high, and ono simply

Over the door of two other op
enings were pieces of wood, dry
rotten, but wood just the 'same
and I took off a little piece and
brought it home. You will say
that wood could not endure the
thousands of years which some
claim these ruins have stood. But
remember, in this locality is the
dryest air on earth it almost
inumifies.
On the other end of the mesa
was once a great burial ground
Two years ago the Smithsonian
neoole took out about 150 skele
tons, with no end of trinkets and
relics.
And where the stairway comes
to the top, from there are a half
dozen oaths leading in dillerent
directions to the other cliffs of
the neighborhood, and every one
of these is worn into the flat
rock from one to five inches deep
Some people in this old country
in that day, and some centuries to
tho time they lived there.
I would liked to have stayed a
week there and explored the coun
try around, but there were two ob
jections.
There was not a drop of water
lor miles, the Crush and rocks
were full of rattlers and taran
tulas, and we had no leggins or
protection.
It didn't seeui as if I could
leave without letting some o
that pile of relics stick to my
lingers, hut l had to. There iH rig
id law against touching these
things.
The driver told me he would
take me to cliff homes (isolated
individual homes) where no white
man had ever neon. He said he
knew where there were half a
dozen. He found them when pros
pecting a year before and said
mat no person would ever una
them except by accident. His axe
leu over me din and ne crawieu
down after it and he said half
way down, absolutely hidden by a
thick growth of brush and trees
were four or five cliff homes. He
ilid not go into them, but marked
tie spot and had heen saving it
lor some tourist with money and
desire. He said ho thought the
hid was worth about $100. I had
the desire all right, but had been
out too long to take his order. I
suppose ahout Sou would turn
the trick.
And ever since I have thought
and dreamed of these hidden
homes. Just think of being the
first man to crawl into one of
these caves and find it as the
family loft it long before G. Col
uinhus' great grandtathor was
born. Just think of crawling in
there with no forest ranger or
government supervisor to watch,
to drive out the bats and snakes
and seo if these prehistoric peop
le washed the dishes and swept
the floor before they left.
Wouldn't it be groat?
What I haven't told about
those ruins would make a book,
but it's so hard to nut the SEE in

Just remember tho above is not
much of a joke from my point of
view. If you are a tiller of the soil
you had better form some sort of
mrtnership with all your neigh
bors, or at least as many as pos
sible for a change is upon us and
ne mctriods employed to create
argo industrial enterprises, are
going to apply to farming. Big
things aro going to happen and
farming will be done that way.
Do you know what nut the
eastern farms on the bum? Well
tho prairie west afforded work
with larger implements, and like
war "God fights on tho side of
the heaviest artillery." If you
can't see it coming you will feel it
when it has come, and no kind of
tarilt law will help the farmer. He
must rely on himself from being
run over by tho steam roller.
In spite of tho achievement of
six states declaring for . equal
suffrage within these two years,
hero are editors so dense that
they fail to see that tho revolut

tho Oregon City and Portland pa

ialism it is quite likely neither of

platform. Just simply guessing at

I see you charge the three nation

the candidates almost stood on

And that the corporations were
openly out to win. Now I take it
that -you must mean the Repub

been an auction block, or a police

how you can whoop-er-up so for
Wilson, if you have the labor in

Wilson will work for the interests
