NO BLANKS IN THIS COMPETITION.

This is competition of rather an
unusual nature. 1t is common to offer
prizes for the best story, or picture, or
architectural plan, all the competitors
risking the loss of their labor and the
successful one merely selling his for
the amount of the prize. But the Press
Claims Company's offer is something
entirely different. Each person is
asked merely to help himself, and the
one who helps himself to the best ad-
vantage is to be rewarded for doing it.
The prize is only a stimulus to do
something that would be we'll worth
doing without it. The architect whose
competitive plan for a club house
on certain corner is not accepted has
spent his labor on something of very
little use to him. But the person who
patents simple and useful device in
the Press Claims Company's COMPETE
tion' need not worry if he fail to secure
the prize. He has substantial result
to show for his wOrk-One that will
command its value in the market at
any time.
The plain man who uses any article
in his daily work ought to know bet
ter how to improve it than the
mechanical expert who studies it only
from the theoretical point of view.
Get rid of the idea that an improve
ment can be too simple to be worth
patenting. The simpler the better. The
person who best succeeds in combining
Simplicity and popularity, will get the
Press Claims COmpay's twenty-five
hundred dollars.
The responsibility of this company
may be judged from the fact that its
stock is neld by about three hundred
of the leading newspapers of the
United States.

NOT so HARD AS 1T SEEMS.

NOT 30 HARD AS bEEMbs
A patent strikes most people as an
appallingly formidable thing. The idea
is that an inventor must be natural
genius, like Edison or Bell; that he
must devote years to delying in
complicated mechanical problems and
that he must spend fortune on
delicate experiments before he can
get new device to patentabls de-
gree of perfection. This delusion the
company desires to dispel. 1t desires to
get into the head, of the public clear
comprehension of the fact that it is
not the great, complex, and expensive
inventions that bring the best returns
to their authors, but the little, simple,
and cheap ones-the things that seem
SO absurdly trivial that the average
citizen would feel somewhat ashamed
&C bringing them to the attention of
the Patent Office.
Edison says that the profits he has
received from the patents on all his
marvellous inventions have net been
sufficient to pay the cost of his ex-
periments But the man who conceived
the idea of fastening bit of rubber
cord to child.s ball, so that it would
come back to the hand when thrown
made fortune out of his scheme. The
modern sewing machine is a miracle
of ingenuity-the product of the toll
of hundreds of busy brains through a
hundred and fifty years, but the whole
brilliant result rests upon the simple
device of putting the eye of the needle
at the point instead of at the other end.
THE LITTLE THINGS THE MOST vALU-
ABLE.
Comparatively rew people regard
themselves as inventors, but almost
everybody has been struck, at one
time or another, with ideas that seemed
calculated to reduce some of the little
frictions of life. Usually such are ideas
dismissed without further thought.
"Why don't the railroad company
make its car windows so that they can
be slid up and down without breaking
the passengers backs?" exclaims the
traveller. "If 1 were running the road
would make them in such a way"
What was the man that made this
saucepan thinking OFF," grumbles the
cook. "He never had to work over
stove, or he would have known how it
ought to have been fixed"
"Hang such collar button !" gr0wls
the man who is late for breakfast "If l
were in the business I'd make buttons
that wouldn't slip out, or break off, or
gouge out the back of my neck"
And then the various sufferers for
get about their grievancet and begin
to think of something else. If they
would sit down at the next convenient
opportunity, putthe ideas about car
windows, saucepans,and collar buttons
into practical shape, and then apply
for patents, they might find themselves
as Independently wealthy as the man,
who invented the iron umbrella ring
or the one who patented the fifteen
puzzlo.

A TEMPTING OFFER.

TEMPTING OFFER.
To induce people to keep track OF
their bright ideas and see what there
is in them, the Press. Claims Company
has resolved to offer prize.

A Pleasant Reception.

On Thursday evening, magnificent
 reception was given at the residence
 of Superintendent Gates, on prison
 hill, to Assistant Superintendent W. s. Shaw and his bride, who were mar ried in Tucson, the evening previous Mrs. Shaw Is the lovely and accom- plished daughter, Sarah, of MT. and Mrs. Lyman Smith, now of Tucson, but formerly residents of Yuma; hence an old and valued friend, of all of our old residents, who were de- lighted to meet and congratulate her, on being the bride, of one of our most respected citizens. The evening was delightful, and the large company, one of the most pleasant, that ever gathered in Yuma. The grounds were beautiful illuminated with electric lights, under which the younger DOT tion of the party, ''tripped the light fantastic toe.,, The refreshments were fine, the music good, and the evening glided into the past as one long to be remembered. Mr. and Mrs. Shaw can feel we'll assured, that they have the best wishes of 0 large circle of friends in Yuma, who wish them happy and successful journey down lifes pathway.

The South Gila Canal.

A correspondent of the Tempt
 News, in it's issue of July 10th, mis represents the state of affairs of the
 South Gila Canal Company, as we
 learn from several reliable parties
 who have been at worK on the dam, and who Know where of they speak, also we are told the same from disin. terested parties who are perfectly familiar with the affairs of the com pany, which never intended to crowed the worK on the canal during the heated term, as it can be finished long before the dam and reservoir will be ready. It is true that some delay has been caused, by the con- pany not receiving material and ma chinery as promised, but it is not too blame for this. The worK is being pushed as rapidly as it can be under these circumstances, and as fast as is consisted with good management. It is an easy matter for an irresponsible person, discharged from the company's worK, for cause, to rush into print and try to injure out of mere spite, or for blacKmail a project having the merit and backing of the South Gila company. The man who writes about the workman with ice water in such place, and oranges and lem ons twice a week, had better seeK his pleasure in some other field of labor. It js to be regretted that there are men and newspapers, thoughtIess or base enough, to circulate any such false hoods, as those found in the ar ticle referred to, merely to gratify their revenge, or for blacKmail.

was put at the miserably low sum of &40,0Q0 Supervisors R. B. Straus and B. A. Haraszthy refus- ing to raise it's value above that sum. This will necessitate the raising of the tax rate. We only wish to asK the taxpayers of
 Yuma county, what they think of a foreign corporation being allowed to pass through the hands of the Board at the paltry valuation of $4O,000, on a property which is turning out from $6o,ooo to ESQ., 900 in gold per month, when every cent of property owned by the poor farmer and residents in the county, though unproductive, is raised to it's highest figure.

Corporations v~. Tax-payers

The Board of Equalization, has been struggling with the Assess ment roll of the county for the past twenty days, during which it raised the valuation of every property in Yuma, to the highest notch, that it could possibly bear. Not a chicken, pig or even Q burro, escaped the notice of the keen-eyed Board. The work continued until the last day but one, when the question arose, as to the assess ment of the Bonanza mines at Harqua Hala. Here is a property, just sold for $1,25O,OOO in gold coin, comprising several patented mines, one of the finest milling plants on the coast, consisting of new 3O- stamp gold mill, pipe line, eight miles in lengh, with a valuable pumping plant, fine hoisting worKs on the mines, horses, mules, wagons, blacKsmith and other shops. a stock of merchandise val ued at not less than $l5,O00, a store and other buildings besides a residence that cost S3O00, and yet all of this property, when the ques tion came before the Board, and Chairman John Gandolfo wanted to value it in proportion to the value placed upon other properties,
