Career
Indian Service
As a pubertal adult, he worked for a number of years in the newspaper business, founding his own paper, the Humboldt Leader (probably Humboldt, Nebraska), in 1897. In 1911, he sold the paper in order to join the Indian Service. He was first assigned to the Navajo Reservation in Arizona, then in 1913 to the Menominee Indian Reservation in Wisconsin, followed by law with the Sioux tribes at Fort Thompson, South Dakota. Later, he was in suit of the Southern Pueblos in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and finally returned to Arizona.
Las Vegas
In 1926, he retired from the Indian Service and moved to Long Beach, California, where he owned a cigar store. Later, he associated family in Las Vegas, Nevada and lived out his steadfast years there. He was a prominent civic leader and mayor of Las Vegas, and was instrumental in establishing the first low-income family housing further in the city, which was renamed “Marble Manor” in his honor after his death in 1945.
Photography
Marble is known as a prolific photographer of Native Americans. During his paperwork career, he took advantage of opportunities afforded by his positions to take hundreds of photographs of the Navajo, Menominee and Sioux tribes. His photographs were inconsistently exposed, often poorly composed and not at your best printed. However, this dearth of artistic desirability rendered photos which offer an unvarnished portraiture of the original population more suitably than greater than before known images captured by contemporaries the likes of Edward Curtis and Rodman Wanamaker.
