INDEPENDENT CANDIDATE FOR DELEGATE T
 CONGRESS,
KING s. WOOLSEY, Election. Tuesday, Sorc,f.beT 5ih, 1918.
Board Of Edaoat,on. Ete.

Ii wllI Le remembered that at the clos
 of the last term of school here, thc BoaTl
 of Education appointed the Principal c'
 the Academy, and assistants in the different
 departments, to act wilh them in preparin
 an improved course of study. That joint
 labor is nearly completed, and the deter
 mInations that have been arrived at may
 come up before the Board, acting in is cor
 poratc capacity, at its next regular meeting on Tuesday, the lst proximo; or in Noycm-
 Der.
 As is well known, the school here which has since been developed into an Academy, was ungraded; thcrc WIS DO specific course of study EniaTgcacnts have been made since then, uEtl now it has three depart menis and nine grades in all. IL seems that while the intention is to retain the depart mcnts and graGes as they are. the further improvement will embrace legal, stated conrsc of study for the students, and which each pupil will be required to go through thoroughly before tLe issuance of the diplo- mas at the end cf the course.
 . Prescott is the heart of great business prosperity and the horizon of the ;uture all that the most ardoat and sanguinc could desire; privatcrcsiGeaccsa and "tradc palaces" are increasing; the climate is sGlubr.ous and SD especially delightful that it has cheering effect on almost everybody, which is high Iy important factor in connection wi;h arlu- GUS study; so that when the Board eicvatcs Ihc Academy to the full standard of its use funes;-Rbcn additional! students are .tract- ed 70 the institution, from abrGad-thc town will become .cn m0Ie noted than it is as a center of intelligence and refinement The surrounding scenery is ali that the most rstetic could expect. and therc is everything here, in nature and in art. and more partic- ularly the former, to develop tue noblcst aspirations. Cambridge, lMass.,) IS ramoG because of ifs Harvard, that, too, hada very snail beginning; Now Haven, tCt..) is as widely known because Yaio Is ih5ro as from my other cause, aud hundreds of towns and cities are always referred to conspicuosIy ia [ the guides of Inc country mostly because of the great pubic iDsiitutians located ia their midst; therefore, let thc Board go to the full extent Of erecting the Ac2uemy i here into the h.gh order of educational in- s,ituiion proposed, 50 that the progress ! in this respect may be uaifo.m with that going Un in many ether dirrciioas.

 colt. and has an abundance of wood and water in tic immediate vicinity. There are aIeo some promising mines ih She neighbor- ! hood. and a short distance doan the creek i is a very fertile ranch 5elougiHg 10 Otto Esch, who will this year reap large crop of corn, potatoes and other vegetables,
 which, owing to the nearncss of The Pres colt market anal the various mining camps. Hiii find q ready sale. His pot=to crop WilI
 be about fifty tons.
 Tic Aztian mill is now owned by the May
 Bean Mining Company, 0I which (. C. Bean

 The mill is now, and has been for the last month, running on the old taiiiBgs of Peek ore. he tGiingS prove to be very rich, averaging about $GO per ten, and as six CT seven tons are worked over each day, they yield a very handsome revenue, There is an immense quantity to be run through yet.
 AS soon as the tailings are all run through the stamps will be put 10 work crushing some 22 tons of selected rock from the Silver Prince. tel0IgiEg Co Houghtelin and | others. This ore tas sas kcd at the mIne, | which Is situated about half mile fro!n the | faEious Peck mine, and packed to the mill, | thir;y-iiye miles distant. on the backs of | bunors, and will yield it is supposed, $4OO | Or $J00 to the ton, but as none of it has | ever been worked, nothing definite is known. 4 large tank is bUildisg into which the tail iDgs from this ore wi.l be run.
 Bowen, Knowles x Co. have stack of 522S lbs. "f very .ich orc from fine Empire mine, on Ash creek, which will be crushed ls soon the clean up is made from the Silver lsilA' bsts
 We were saown some specimens from the Bercnice Ccnci mine which will 20 $2j0 to hc tOn This mine is in the vicinity Of the mil and belongs to Mr. r. W.

 Mir. Howard showed us some very bcauii- 'ul specimens oi tyuymqiit, found in an old shaft near by, and which he said were the finest he had been able 10 get here. The .pecimens are long three-sided prisms, jet black, about as large as a goosc-Guill, em Jcddcd in quartz and will make quite an addition to his airca,,y extensive collection.
 The amalgam on hand at the mill was to lave becL "re.er;cd " yesterday, and the re- ult is expected 10 be two bars of silver 'ullion valued at about $?. ?.500-a seven lays run.

Aner the stage Eobber~ Vigorously.

Gov. Hoyt las just issued a acquisition on the Governor of Sonora, Mexico, forthc sur render of another oi ,be individuals ferrctcd out by detectives as having bren connected with one of the laic stage robbcries. and United States Marshal Da&c has commS- stoned special deputy to make the arrest under the recoe milton of the req1isition. The deputy has already started on his mis- sien.
 ,t will thus be seen that the Governor, and the United States Marshal acting under the instructions of the Department of Jus iicc at Washington, are cooperating, and acting so promptly and vigorously that the robbing of the United States malls in this Territory. and Interference with the stages, for the purpose of robbery, will ere long be regarded by the road agents as more hazardous than inviting employment.
