James H. McClintock has accepted the position of news editor of The Re publican and will be in charge of that department of the paper. MT. Nc Clintock's wide acquaintance with the people of the territory and his experi- ence as a practical newspaper man render his services-in that line of an especial value that will readily be ap- preeiated by the readers of The Repub- lican.
 Winslow Mail: The Holbrook Land and Canal company was incorporated under the laws of Arizona on Septem- Der IT, with F. M. Buck, F. B. Modica and F. A. Buck as incorporators. Cap ital stock $2,000,000. They propose to dam the Little Colorado about two miles below Woodruff and conduct the water on to the lands surrounding Hol- brook by means of ditches. Have been unable to learn when they expect . to commence work, but hope it may not be long and that their efforts may be crowned with abundant success. The Mail would like to see every acre of available land from Fort Apache to Winslow under cultivation, settled by live, energetic and enterprising peo- pie.
 Winslow Mail: Arizona statistics will show that there is a greater pro duction of wealth per capita in Ari- zona than in any other state or terri tory in the United States. When this fact becomes generally known there will be a flood tide of immigration to this territory, as nothing is more cer- tain proof of the wealth of any given section than the amount of wealth produced per capita of the population Arizona leads the United States.
 Mohave County Miner: An effort is being made by the good ladies of Kingman to put up a building to be used as a free reading room. A meet ing will be held next Wednesday at 2 o'clock at the M. E. church, to which all the ladies are invited. This is a move in the right direction and we hope the project will be successful.
 Mohave County Miner: Our thanks are due Miss Isabelle Crozier, of Trux- ton, for box of luscious peaches. The young lady informs us that herself together with sister and brother, will handle the peach crop on their fathers place, outside of Peach Springs and Williams. The fruit is of the finest.
 Mohave County Miner: W. A. Neal, the lucky owner of the Golden Rev and the Granite State mines on Burro Creek, was in Kingman this week with a load of farm produce from his Sandy ranch. MT. Neal says the mines on Burro Creek are looking fine and that it is only matter of time until they are turning out thousands of dollars in gold monthly.
 Tucson Star: The grand jury was drawn yesterday for the October term of court in this county. The jury is called for Monday October A. There has been a great deal of uncertainty on account of Judge Bethune's condi- tion, as to the exact court work. It is by no means certain, that the judge will be able to reach Tucson. He is in Los Angeles still confined to his bed, and weak from delicate surgical operation which he has just under gone. His physicians believe, though that he may be able to leave for Tue son in about ten days.
 Tucson Star: J. Gordon, the grocer, was nearer the hereafter yesterday than he ever was before. He went to a dentist to have tooth pulled The tooth had grown fast to the jaw so that it's removal was likely to be attended by extreme pain. An anaesthetic was administered and almost immediately the practised eye of the dentist dis covered that it had taken an unexpect- ed effect. He at once began to admin ister antidotes, but it seemed for a time that the patient had gone beyond the reach of an earthly call. He was as unconscious as if dead for two hours, after which his restoration took place slowly, and he was taken home in a carriage. He is still confined in his bed, but no fatal consequences are now feared.
 Mohave County Miner: "Bucky" O'Neill, on a free silver ticket can car ry ten Arizona counties for congress next year. We are for him and the silver party. Now is the time to or ganize and then to go in to win.
