The New Mining Law.

The following are some of the pro- visions of Senator Stewards amend ment to the United States mining laws, which recently passed the senate:
 "The amount of work necessary to hold placer claim is reduced from $l00 to $50, and limits the amount of placer ground that may be included in patent to l60 acres. It fixes l2 o'clock noon, on the first day of August as the commencement and end of the year for annual work, instead of midnight on the 3lst of December, as now fixed by law. The change was made to allow relocation to be made in daylight and in summer time, when the mountains are free from snow.
 "lt requires, when the annual work is performed, the filing of an affidavit showing the work performed. in the county recorders office of the county in which the mine is situated. It al- lows the afidavits which are required to be made under the mining law, to be sworn to before any officer author ized to administer oaths in any state or territory In the United States. It reserves the right of way through or over any mining claim for roads, ditches, canals, cuts and tunnels for the purpose of working other mines as now provided by law, and provides that any damage occasioned thereby to the mine owner shall be assessed and paid in the manner provided by law, for the condemnation of private property for public use in the states and territories in which the mines are situated.
 "It also provides that no persons shall acquire by location or possession more than one mining claim on the same vein, nor shall any person relo- cate claim which he has previously located. This is to prevent repeated relocations of the same claim by the same persons to evade the provisions requiring annual work. The restric- tion to one claim on the same lode is really what the original law meant, but it has been construed otherwise, and this declaration makes it's mean ing certain" "

Yuma county has probably now as bright prospects for real genuine western boom as any county in Ari- zona or Southern California. The az ricultural and mining interests con tinue to improve and it may be safely said that very shortly things will be- gin to brighten in that favored sec tion. The bonds of the county are being sought as a paying investment and strangers are arriving daily and giving their attention t07uIe natural resources of Yuma.-Star.

The dozen or more irrigating enter prises now under way between this city and Yuma will, in a year or two, reclaim all of the available agricultu- ral lands between the two points, and will build up gardens along the entire line. All of Southern Arizona's plains will eventually be brought un- der cultivation, but it will be necessary to resort to the storage of water in systems of reservoirs.-Phoenix Ari- zonan.

Sore Eyes

The eyes are always in sympathy with the body, and afford an excellent index of it's condition. When the eyes become weak, and the lids inhamed and sore, it is an evidence that the system has become disordered by Scrofula, for which Ayers Sarsaparilla is the best known remedy.
 Scrofula, which produced painful in- f1ammation in my eyes, caused me much suffering for a number of years. By the advice of physician commenced taking Ayers Sarsaparilla. After using this medicine a short time I was completely
 Cured
 My eyes are now in @ splendid condi- tion, and am as we'll and strong as ever. Mrs. William Gage, Concord, N. H.
 For a number of years was troubled with a humor in my eyes, and was unable to obtain any relief until commenced using Ayers Sarsaparilla. This medi- cine has effected complete cure, and I believe it to be the best of blood puri- fers. .-C. E. Upton, Nashua, N. H.
 From childhood, and until with few months, I have been afflicted with Weak and Sore Eyes. I have used for these cOmplalQUS, WILL UcllOuCldl 1Oou1IS, Ayers Sarsaparilla, and consider it great blood purifier. - Mrs. c. Phillips, Glover, Vt.
 I suffered for a year with infamma- tion in my left eye. Three ulcers formed on the ball, depriving me of sight, and causing great pain. After trying many other remedies, to no purpose, was final ly induced to use Ayers Sarsaparilla.
 By Taking
 three bottles of this medicine have been entirely cured. My sight has been re- stored, and there is no sign of inf1amma- tion, sore, or ulcer in my eye. - Kendall T. Bowen, Sugar Tree Ridge, Ohio.
 My daughter, ten years old, was afflict- ed with Scrofulous Sore Eyes. During the last two years she never saw light of any kind. Physicians of the highest standing exerted their skill, but with no permanent success. On the recommen- dation of a friend purchased bottle of Ayers Sarsaparilla, which my daughter commenced taking. Before she had used the third bottle her sight was restored. Her cure is complete. W. E. Suther- land, Evangelist, Shelby City, Ky. tt Ayers Sarsapariila, Prepared by Dr. J. c.

 The hue and cry to down Zulick resulted most disastrously to the would-be downers. The harmony supposed to have been on. tap in a back room appears to have been sto len by the Zulick gang, as they evi- dently swung the big end of the con- vention. Herndon and Berry may be as reported -antiZulick men, but evidently they are of that harmless sort, from whom Zuli;k may expect as much support as antagonism. The anti Zulick resolutions were downed beyond the possible hope of resurrec- tion, and the home rule sop thrown to the anti-Zulicks by the 'sLittle Steve and "Jim Coyle" combination was filling but not satisfying. It, how ever, stopped the wrangle and jangle for which the convention appears to have been specially noted. Citizen.

There can be scarcely a doubt that one of the projected trunk lines of
 railroad through Arizona will traverse the north side of the Gila valley. touching Florence, and that such a
 road will be under construction before
 the end of the present year. With good and cheap transportation facili- ties Florence will grow to become a large commercial city second to none in the Territory. It possesses the ad- vantages of geographical location and the immediate surroundings to support city, and no prophetic eye is neces- sary to discern the plain writing of it's destiny The time is coming when the tide of immigration from the east will roll into Arizona like 1t recently did to Southern California, for this portion of the great south vest pos sesses all the elements of climate, health, productiveness and availability to attract people With the advent of new line of railroad the future of Florence will be fully assured.-Flor- ence Enterprise.
