During the week N. C.. Thorn
SOD, manager Of the Candelaria
Mining Company, at Ahumid,
near San Pedro, Mexico, has
been in the city employing min
ers to work in the silver and lead
mines and interesting others in
business possibilities in our
southern republic. Mr.. Thomp.
son was accompanied by NJ. T.
Harmon, formerly a conductor
on the Duluth & Iron Range and
who in the early days Of Virgin
ia was John B. Weimer's right
bower at the opening Of the Ohio
mine, and B. F. Derbyshire, the
southwestern passenger agent of
the Texas & Pacific, who is in
charge of transportation for the
party.
The gentlemen have secured
the signatures of large number
from this city and adjoining TO-
cations, who will leave for a new
home IN the land of the cactus
tree.
The company for whom these
people are hired is not mining
corporation only, but also con-
trolls large tracts of lands and is
engaged in cattle and sheep hus
bandry.
The men go on a contract at
SO per day, Mexican money, and
are guaranteed steady employ
ment. We trust those who 90
may have 20 reason to regret
the change made.

LEASES NEW PROPERTY.

LEASES NEW PROPERTY.
The Fayal Iron company has
this week leased from the fee
owners, E. M. Fowler, of Chica-
go, and Robinson & Finn, of
Detroit, and T. E. Doerr, of Sag
inaw three forties adjoining the
Fayal mine for a term of twenty
years. The lease runs from the
first Of January next. The roy
atty is to be 25 cents ton for
the first three year: and 30 cents
a ton for every year thereafter
during the life Of the lease The
minimum output is to be $4,000
tons per year. It is provided,
however, that the mining com
pany may increase its output
from the Fayal mine to the ex
tent of $4,000 tons, thus making
it optional with the company
whether it produces from the
new or present property.
At the special session of the
State Board of Pardons on Sat
urday last, held to consider the
petition of P. J. Borgstrom. the
sentence of $500 fine and one
year in the penitentiarv was re-
duced to a $500 fine with no i'm
prisonment. While 1t is not,
perhaps, wise for the people to
create hope for evil doors By De-
ing lavish in their desire to miti.
gate sentences imposed by our
court tribunals. there are cases
where such desire is founded on
justice, pure and simple. The
case of Mr.. Borg>lr0m was such.
The sentence imposed and sus-
tanned by the courts was too
great for the offense committed
If offense it was-and the great
majority of people throughout
the county are we'll satisfied at
the final outcome of the case.

Dinham and Kauppi were IN this
city in the early fall and met
with the people of Virginia at
the city hall, they both promised
to have submitted and support a
resolution at the January meet
ing of the Board of County Com
missioners providing for the
appropriation of at least $1,000
toward building the connecting
link of the Miller Trunk Road
from this city north to the Tow.
er and Itasca road. Just paste
this in your hat and await the
outcome of the matter at the
next meeting of the Board. It
may prove Of no special benefit
further than to assist you in a
formation OF a correct opinion as
to whether or not all men are
excessively inconsistent IN their
manner of handling the truth.
To judge from the orthogra.
ply, grammatical construction
and presumed attempt at WITH
cism displayed in the write up of
the cutting ARRAY at the Virginia
Hospital Thursday last in a GER
tain range exchange, one is led
to believe that the perpetrator
of the terrible deed is not the
only person on the range who
has need of medical assistance
for evident mental arrangement.
In a case of so serious a nature,
an attempt at levity falls with a
sickening thud and most plainly
denotes a lack Of average intel
ligence on the part Of a writer
employing it.

IN the sale of the Union Pacific railraod the government got the full amount of it's lien $50,637,435 This is great triumph for the Mckinley administration. When the road was started a third of a century ago nobody supposed the government would get back in direct cash any of the money which it put into the work. It was a great military as we'll as economic enterprise, and it was expected to pay the people, by uniting the Pacific coast with the Atlantic and in developing the West, many times for the money expenditure which the government made This, of course, it has done. It will do more than this, however, for the government is obtaining the full amount of its claim. The admins. tration's desire has been to protect the peoples interests in this matter to the greatest possible extent, and it has achieved larger measure of success than anybody month ago expected.

MORE ROOM REQUIRED.

The question of room in the public schools of Yuma is problem that has presented itself in on un- certain terms to the board of direc- tors for solution. The capacity of the present building is inadequate to accommodate the number of scholars now in attendance, and 1t will be necessary to build at least two more rooms before ths next school year begins, in order to properly handle the rapidly in creasing scholarship. Even two rooms would not be sufficient for more than one years increase at the present rate, and it is proposed by the directors to raise the present building up one story and build four additional rooms under it, making eight large rooms under one roof. The work can be done at cost exceeding but very little the outlay in the construction of two rooms as an addition, besides making a much more convenient and imposing building, with suffi- cient room to meet the demands for at least three years.
 The building of an addition for the accommodation of each years increase in population would soon make an ungainly and almost worthless structure when the time comes, which is not for distant, when Yuma will require a high school of SIX or eight rooms, be- sides a grammar school of more than the present capacity. The building raised to two stories would be credit to the town and could be ustilized to a better advantage in the future. It is certain that the directors will have the hearty cooperation ot the taxpayers in the movement and it is to be hoped they will carry ont the project in- stead of scattering the school build ings over a forty-acre field.
