This issue is mainly concerned with the Indian tribes of Arizona. Clara Lee Tanner, of the University of Ari---ona, tells us the story of the various groups of Indians who people our state, and we feel the story is competently and interestingly told.
The largest tribe and the largest reservation in our state is that of the Navajo, whose domain is a vast, « ind-swept, eroded land of sun and distance taking up the northeastern part of Arizona. One of our most interesting tribes is the Hopi, clinging so tenaciously to their mesas of Arizona's high plateaus. One of our most admirable group of Indian neighbors is the Papago, who have survived and even flourished in a desert reservation where rains are few and far between. The Havasupais, of all our Indians, live in that picturesque canyon that is part of Grand Canyon, and one would have to travel far and long to find more picturesque surroundings. The Apaches on two great reservations, who gave to history such valiant leaders as Cochise and Geronimo and Victorio, produce some of the finest cattle in the state and are, indeed, an estimable part of our commonwealth. And, in passing, one should not forget to mention the Pimas and the river tribes whose forefathers centuries ago practiced the art of irrigation and who today reap bountiful harvests from desert lands.
Here in Arizona live more Indians than in any other state in the Union. They are part of our land, part of our economy, part of our history. They were here long before Columbus sailed, long before the Pilgrims landed. They have survived under conditions that have not always been favorable for survival. We have a lot to learn from our Indians.... R.C.
