The school board met in regu-
lar session on Monday evening. All
members were present. The committee
appointed at the last meeting to ascer-
tain the cost of lighting the central
building reported that the wiring
would cost $50 and the yearly cost
of light would be $40. 1t was thereupon
decided to contract with the Crescent
Electric company. The matter of con-
Meeting the schools by telephone was
indefinitely postponed. the board being
of the opinion that the cost of doing so
would be too great. Mr. Il. +. Lotus
asked permission to use one of the
school rooms for a night school. Ac-
ton was postponed on this as well as

The election on Tuesday passed with
out disturbance. A comparatively light
vote was polled and not more than
seventy per cent. of the registry exer-
cised the privilege. In each ward

vote they received is quite compliment
tary to them. In this election, as in the
two previous elections the Second ward
was one of Judge Smiths greatest
strongholds. There ne received III out
of 1870 votes polled, having beaten his
fellows on the ticket to /. 1t is hardly
necessary to add that his election gives
great pleasure to the residents of that

NEGLECTED FIELD.

American business men of all classes are persistently ignoring the opportu-
 nifty presented for trade and traffic of all kinds in the state of Sonora, and are permitting, to great extent, to pass into the hands of Europeans the control of a business which should be all their own.
 In a mercantile way the business men of the United States have closed their eyes to the fact that the mer- chants of Sonora are among the most substantial and reliable in the entire world. Numerous houses can be named which command an extensive trade, carry tremendous stocks, buy their goods by the ship load, all over the world, at all times, carry good margin of spot cash, have outside re- sources of great productive value, and are eminently capable of carrying to q successful issue any undertaking in which they may see lit to embark. Close relations should be cultivated with such establishments by the busi- ness men of the United States.
 In mining way Sonora offers a vast and virgin field to American capital. The great gold lode at Minrs Prietas is but in the infancy of it's develop ment, and it has already produced many millions. Those who are posted assert that there are number of such lodes in Sonora which need only ex- ploitatlon by capital to make them rivals of the Prietas lode. And no- where in the world can mining opera tions be conducted more cheaply Close proximity to tide water gives cheap freights on tools, machinery, timber and other necessaries; and the great bulk of the labor employed is paid small wages in depreciated silver. Tue same kind of work for which min ing operators in Colorado and Califor nia pay two and one-half to four dol lars per day in gold is got in Sonora for one and one-half to two dollars per day in silver. The expert labor is paid in gold at about the same rate as in California: but that is the smallest part of the cost of operation of min ing property. A larger margin Of profit can thus be realized from lower grades of ores: and the state is ribbed with lodges which will produce high grade ores.
 In the great enterprise of irrigation and cultivation of the great natural resources in agriculture | and horticulture there is a vast and | virgin field to be occupied. On the | Yaqui river the Sonora & Sinaloa IT, rigation Co. has about completed it's great canal which will reclaim nearly four hundred thousand acres of land. | But the great work of colonizing and | into productiyeDess all that vast body Of fertile soil remains to be done. And numerous similar projects of great magnitude and importance are open to exploitation in Sonora. They should not be neglected or over locked by American capital.
