Quit His Job.

Aristeo Romero, who was recently sentenced by Justice Craig to sixty days in jail for a Inisdrmeanor, was on last Tuesday taken by Under Sheriff Gonzales out to the county wood pile, in the rear of the court house and or dered to exerclse himself thereat. Hav- ing been also rovided with a good and suitable axe, Don Aristeo started to work, but while MT. Gonzales atten- tion was temporarily called elsewhere, he gently laid the axe to one side. and then imm diately had urgent business out of town. It is presumed he hld himself until evening ill the willows growing on the bank of the river, and under cover ofnight struck out for New Mexico. No blame can be attached to MT. Gonzales, as he was acting under the direction of hls superIors. If this will only have the effect of keeping Ar isteo out of town for year or two. we don't know but that it would be the best way to dispose of him. However, it will be tough for the community ih which MT. Romero may decide to cast his lot

In the American Valley

The stockholders of the American Valley Water Storage and Irrigation company have recently prepared arti. cles of incorporation, and the boys have gone to work on the dam. The incorporators are Albert F. Potter, Walter Baird, 0. V. Peery, Wm. Crab. tree. Ed. BeeIer, James Donohue, Jim Reagan, George w. Henderson and Mrs. Lulu Stevenson. At meeting of stockholders held last "Wednesday in St. Johns, 1t was resolved, "that no sa- loon would be tolerated in the settle ment." This was the unanimous sen. tlment of the meeting. As a means of enforcing the local option ordinance, it was also agreed that if any one should attempt to open saloon in or any where near the settlement, the power of the population should be invoked, and the offender, together with his stock Of drinkables. should be thrown over the bluff. As Walter Baird IS the boss of the camp, this regulation will come very near being the supreme law of the new community.

Just What Miners Want.

All who are, or expect to be, interest. ed in mines will be glad to know that Henry N. Copp, the Washin ton. DC, land lawyer, has revised Copp's Pros pector's Manual. The mineralogical part of tie work has been almost en- tirely rewritten by a Colorado mining engineer, who has had years of exderi- ence as prOspector, assayer and su- perintendent of mines and United States surveyor.
 The.book is popular treatise on as- saying and mineralogy. and will be found useful to all who wish to discover mines. The first part of the work gives the United States mining laws and reg ulations, how to locate and survey a mining clsim, various forms and much valuable information. The price is 50 cents at the principal book stores, or of the author.

Pushing the Work.
IGazette.


 Last evening there was meeting of the local committee having in charge preparations for the fifth annual ses- sion of the irrigation congress, to be held Tn this eitty, beginning December 15, lasting three dave. The following well known business men were added to the local committee: T. w. Hine, H. E. Kemp, Frank Alkire, P. W. But- Ter, E. Irvine, G. H. HirschieId, B. N. Pratt, D. L. Murray. R, H. Greene, 0. L. Eschman, J. W. Doris, pr. Ancil Martin. John T. Dennis, L. L. Plank, Aaron Goldberg George w. HoadIey.
 The committee reports the work we'll in hand, and that an unusually exten- sive amount of advertising has been secured throughout the entire country The programme has been published in full in 184 papers, while 150 others have given from one to two columns of space to the congress and this valley. The local office has expended nearly $500 in advertising and correspondence, while a similar amount of work has been &C., complished by the president from Great Bend, Kansas, and the secretary from Los Angeles. It is estimated there will be at least 900 people here to at- tend the session, and that thousands eff columns will bo printed about the valley in all the leading journals of the country. This is an important event, and it is gratifying to know the busi- ness men are taking an extremely. ac. tive interest to make it success. This is certainly great opportunity to show at limited cost the vast, illimitabIs re- sources of the territory, and especially of the Salt River valley. But three more weeks remain for preparation and the cily will need to be in holiday at- tire and all our citizens on their usual good behavior.

that this aqueous G | o b e
