SeligmAn selected as n Division Point.
 From Saturdays Daily.

Deputy Sheriff John Munds came in today from a visit to Seligman and says that place is livelier than it has been for several years. Sur veYors are at work making a survey for a water storage dam and reser- voir three miles east of the town. and an outfit is on the ground ready to go to work on it's construction. The new life and activity which has been imparted to the place Mir. Munds says IS occasioned from the fact that the A. & r. railroad has decided to do away with one divi- sion and will establish division ter minus there. The division points at Williams and Peach Springs will be abandoned in consequence of the proposed change.
 The change has been under con temptation for some tim ,, the great draw back being a lack of water. This problem will be solved how ever by the construction of a storage reservoir.

It is time that the public under stood clearly what class it is which chiefly suffers from the insane, com munistic warfare waged against rail roads in the United States. Dema- gogues with no reputations to lose, have industriously spread the idea that the owners of these roads, as a rule, consist of a handful of Wall street "plutocrats." Nothing could be further from the truth. The al Q legged "plutecrats" are often hardly more than trustees for others. The principal owners of many ol the railroads are small estates or men and women with small sums invested in them. For example, the share holders of the Boston & Albany road at a recent date numbered S,647; the New York and New Haven road, 6,773; those of the Pennsylvania road, 27,772; those of the Chicago. Burlington & Q1incy road, 12,300, and those of the Rock Island road, 4,043. In one of the great western roads, thousands of the shareholders consist of its own employees. The railroads in this respect serve much the same purpose as savings banks. As . matter of fact, there are more shareholders in the Pennsylvania Central railroad than there are say ings bank depositors in North and South Carolina combined, aud near lY twice as many as there are savings bank depositors in Indiana. The owners of the five roads we have enumerated equal in number the savings bank depositors in the great state of Ohio. Yet there are dema gogues who continue to chatter about railroads being the property of perhaps dozen designing indi- viduals located st the great financial centers.-Ex.

BRAND RECORDING.
of Interest and Importance to Every
 CattIeman in AEizon=.

Cattieman In AziEons.
 It is of the greatest importance tx
 the cattlemen og Arizona that the]
 should know of the provisions o
 late law with reference to braEc
 recording. and after knowing ths
 provisions, proceed without any un.
 necessary delay to comply with the
 law.
 The new law makes 1t compulsory
 that all brands bs recorded in the
 office of the Live Stock Sani4ary
 Board instead of with the county recorders of the several counties,
 which county record books have
 been done away with in so far as they constitute . public record.
 Those who had their brands on county record will request the county recorder, either in person or by letter, to make out . certificate of such brands on blanks furnished the recorder. For this they pay a fee of 25 cents to the recorder. The certificate is signed by the owner of the brand, or his agent, as the case may be, after which it Is sent to the office of the secretary of the Sani- tary board ct Phenix. It should be understood in this connection that no brand or mark shall bs changed after the certificate has been signed by the recorder, and his seal affixed. Such changes can be made, but on another blank which will be fur nished by the secretary on request.
 All brands which have never been recorded heretofore will have Co 20 to public record under the present law, z and, for which purpose blanks will be furnished hy the secretary. This refers to horses as we'll as cattle; if you have ten dif- ferent brands on your ranch, you should have them recorded if you desire to be secured m the use of the brand. It isRn erroneous idea that only the bras d kept up need be placed on record.
 If you have other brands, and which from your failing to record, do not appear on such record as taken by any one, the same will hs allowed to be the first applicant who may apply for such brand, in which case it might work to the serious disadvantage of the first or original owner of cattle in such brand.
 It is intended to be and certainly will be an advantage to every cattle man n Arizona, and to that end all are urged to take advantage of the provision at the earliest possible l moment.
 Remember, brands do not have to | be burnt on leather as of old. 4 l simple filling out of blank wilI be | all that is required, which blank the l county recorder will furnish if your | brand has been recorded. If is has not been on record, request a blank | from the Secretary at Phenix.
 In all cases Of brands which have been on county record, fee of 9 cents is paid to the recorder of the county. h all ether cases the fee is sl for each and every brand, payable by check or money order to the Sanitary Board, and must accom- pany the application. This covers the cost of recording and certif- cate under the seal of the board.
 The reader will confer a favor both on his fellow man and the Board by making this as widely known as possible. The bet ter plan, perhaps, would be to clip ihis out and carry it in your pocket, where It can easily be referred to.

A Louisville Times reporter thin he has discovered a young womes "whose shoulders are like marble without the coldness of marble; lik, ivory, deiicately tinted, cream velvet carved from the leaves of aho deli cate Niphetos rose, as satiny as the coat of race horse, as sinuals in their turns as a snake, gracs .ul as a swan on the water.

Akron, O., May Ga new town is be
ing built three miles west of this city in.
Copley Township, which will bear the
name of Garden City. Its promoters in
tend that Garden City shall be a home
for unemployed men, and one in which
they can find healthful employment at
living wages. Their plan is not, of
course, wholly philanthropic, but it
seems it will be of mutual benefit to all
concerned.
The Copely Garden Company owns
4, 900 acres of land in Copely Township
and this will be the site of Garden City.
In the large garden of celery and other
plants the company has worked it finds
that 500 worth of labor is necessary on
each acre of celery grown. Five acres
will keep one family pretty busy dur
ing the summer.
The company proposes to cut this
A. ,O0O acres up into ive-acre tracts as
fast as the land is brought TO good
state of cultivation, and on each little
tract house will be erected. The ten
ant may purchase outright or work for
the company.
Already score of houses haye been
built and several more are now going up.
