YEARS ago The SjJUer Belt favored the removal of the Territorial pris- on from Yuma to a more central location. Since then a great deal of money has been expended on that institution, and 1t would cost $100,0O0 or more to move it to Prescott, which the Territory is not able at the present time to incur Let California reap the benenit of the prison until the Territory be- comes a state. Then, advocates of statehood say, we will have un- paralleled prosperity and money to burn. It will then be time enough to talk of making costly public improvements. Besides, the ever recurring fear that Yuma may lose the prison will have a salutary influence, let Us hope, in keeping down the. cost of main tenance and discouraging luther appropriations for the enlargement of that institution-SiJoer Belt.

 House bill No. i9 was also endorsed in the following language:
 To the president of the council and speaker of the house, nineteenth leg isIative assembly
 Gentlemen-The Arizona Press As sociation, at its annual meeting held in Phoenix, February 15, 1897, unan- imously adopted the following resolu- tions:
 Resolved, that it is the sense of the Arizona Press Association that house bill No. 19, defining legal newspaper, now in the hands of the council, should become a law; the measure is just and equitable and protects all legitimate newspapers, and this as sociation earnestly asks the council to pass the bill
 Resolved, That we also heartily en- dorse house bill No. 57, defining a libel, introduced by Mir. Hull. This is a law in many states and has been found to be just to all concerned, and we earnestly urge the legislature to make the bill law.
 House bill No. 19, introduced by D. G. Chalmers, speaker of the house was also endorsed by unanimous vote. Ii reads as follows:

PRISON REMOVAL.

Graham county is undoubtedly opposed to the removal of the Ter ritorial penitentiary. It costs us enough to convey convicts there as it is, besides we cannot afford an additional tax for a new one It is entirely unnecessary, and the members of the legislature from this county will undoubtedly vote against the bill.
 Besides, the prison records show that the counties of Graham, Co., chise, Pima, Pinal, and Yuma have furnished double the number of prisoners that the whole northern part of the Territory has.
 In addition to this the Yuma SENTINEL gives the following ex- .eellent reasons why the prison should remain where it is.
 "Upon the question of clothing in the climate of Yuma, there is nc aeed to use other than cotton goods Of course, stripped prison good: cost little more than plain goods and there are only two firms in the United States that sell these strip ped goods, having @ monopoly thereof. The stripped goods fo the prison at Yuma costs IA cent per yard.
 In the climate of Prescott woolel goods being necessary it woul, cost to furnish these suits fully z per cent more per yard. Further in Yuma, there is never a necessit. for any heating apparatus. Il Prescott there would be an absolut necessity for such heating appar .atus, outside the bounds of cruelty In Yuma, wood is not costing any .thing, the same being cut on tn .prison farm. In Prescott 1t woult cost, at least eight dollars pc seord. ."-GaardiG91.

The leading Republican papers of the Territory-the Republican, Herald and Journal Miner, took no part in the endorsement of Colonel NJ. H. McCord, not proposing to exhibit themselves in the unenviable light of having endorsed a man, who, if the charges against him are true, is in every way unftted to hold the office to which he aspires.-TucSOR Citizen.
 The above assertion is entirely incorrect. as editors Randolph, Mor- ford and Martin were present and voted for the resolution.
The Arizona sentinel., 1897-02-20

The only daily paper represented in the association which give it's sup port to the McCord resolution was the GGsette and it's force, a Democratic journal and anti Mckinley to the core, during the recent campaign. There are financial considerations which these supporters could not overlook and which figured most potently in their action.-TUcson Citizen.
 The Cjti@e1a is mistaken in it's statement, as every daily in the Territory with the exception of the Prescott Courier was present and took part in the meeting above mentioned and all voted for the re- solutions endorsing Col. McCord with the exception of the represen- tative of the Citi@en

THE Denver Repmb5ecdn says: Visitors from Arizona may well sound the praises of that Territory, which is fortunate in both climate and mineral resources. It has great wealth iE silver, gold and copper, its copper deposits are especially valuable and extensive. The rise in the price of that metal of late has made copper mining profitable, and large fortunes will probably be made from some of the Arizona deposits.

spider SILK.

The web of the Madagascar spider
is to be utilized for the purposes of
silk manufacturing by a company Of
French capitalists. The natives of the
island where this spider thrives know
very we'll the good qualities of this
thread, but their innate laziness pre-
vents their applying themselves to the
systematic exploitation of the webs. It
: is still remembered that the Creoles Of
Mauritius presented Empress Eugene
with a pair of mittens made Of this spi-
der's threads, which were SO fine that
they could hardly be noticed on her
hands. Tor they were almost transpa-
rent and colorless. A French natural
ist has recently ascertained that the
Madagascar spider produces at the be-
ginning Of its work more than 100
yards of thread per hour, increasing in
quantity until it produces more than
150 yards per hour. A newly-construct-
ed little machine, which winds the
thread on bobbins automatically imme-
diately from the spider, is to be en-
ployed in Madagascar. The spiders
themselves are to be raised systematic
cally in enormous numbers, and al
though the fabrics made from the new
material may be ~stupendously costly
at first, it is not unlikely that the pres
emit generation will live to see dresses
made Of spider web.

Uniting sheets of Mica.

1t is often desirable to join sheets
of mica, and a very simple operation
will secure hat result. Put clear
gelatin into cold water; let it remain
until it is softened, then press out any
excess of water with a soft cloth. Put
it over a water bath until it melts, then
add heated proof spirit to make it fluid,
being extremely careful not to put too
much Of the spirit-simply enough to
liuuify it. Meanwhile dissolve one and
one-third ounce of gun mastic and
o~ne-fourth Of gum ammoniac in
four ounces of rectified spirit. Add
this to the gelatin and spirit solution,
stirring it very carefully, keeping the
mass in motion continually until it is
perfectly blended. Put it in glass stop
pered bottles and see that it is perfect
" sealed. Warm it when wanted for
use and apply quickly. Then press
he sheets together and place a very
light weight on them, leaving them to
dry for several days.

Tbe vanishing Mountains.

In a paper which he recently read
before the Scientific Congress at Paris.
M. de Lapparent expressed the opin-
ion that all mountains will vanish of
he face of the earth in course OF time.
He declared that If the actual natural
forces at work upon our globe retain
their present intensity, in $500, 00Ol
years all inequalities Of surface win
be levelled. He instanced as a striking
example the reduction of the Arden
mes, which were once a chain Of the,
Alps, but which had already shrunk to
their present dimensions at the outset
Of the Tertiary epoch. The Alps, he
said, exempliied the youth. the Pyre-
nees the maturity, and the mountains
of Provence the declining years of
mountain ranges, while the central
plateau Of France was typical of their
death and dissolution.

A New Cement.

Report is made in the chemical Jour
mails of a new kind of cement COM
pound which has been introduced in
Europe with very satisfactory results.
This substance, to which the name of
"petrifte' is given, is intended to be
used for the conversion Of organic or
inorganic matter-whether it be waste,
wet OF dry, pure or mixed-into a hard,
durable mass impervious to water, OF
great strength and fire from all at
mospheric influences. The compost
ton employed is not stated, but it is
in the form Of a white powder, and the
statement is made that, mixed with
sand, it produces a sandstone OF dur
able quality; with sawdust a body sim
liar to hardwood. but i~ndestructihle,
while with slate waste the result is an
agreeable marble. According to the
Chemical Trade Journal the most re-
liable chemical authorities who have
examined and experimental with this
product have expressed very favorable
opinions as to its value, and Prof.
Banschinger OF the Munich laboratory,
who is one of the leading exports in
all such matters. states that the wear
ing quality OF this new substance, with
sawdust, Is equal to the best granite
and basalt.

FouNpER OF TOMBSTONE.


Remarkable Career of a st. Louis boy
who Became n Miner.
Edward Schefiein, who was found
dead the other day in his miners
shack In Oregon, had an eventful life,

Der WE'LL" said William H. Boothe, an
old-time mine promoter, to a reporter,
when he opened up the Contention
mine at Tombstone and gave the place
its queer name. / ought to remember
1t, for 1t was I who grub-staked
Schefiein on that prospecting tour. He
bunkoed me out of all but a few hun
dreds. The stories that have been told
about Sci efiein's daring in penetrat-
ing into the Apache country and par
ticularly into the Cochise mountains,
where he found the Contention lode,
are not much exaggerated. 1t was a
pretty ticklish thing to go down there.
Old Cochise had been 'pacified,' 1t is
true, but he had a lively son, Natchez,
and a valiant nephew, Geronimo, and
they were the active young leaders OF

Ed Scheflein struck the Contention
lode and called the place Tombstone
we thought 1t a happy play of Eds
mind. The Contention proved to be
a great mine. 1t was enormously rich
in silver, but it was discovered just
about the time every condition arose
to put down the price of that metal.
However, it yielded al amount away
into the millions. The Schefleins sold
half of the mine to Walter Dean of San
Francisco, Dick Grid of Los Angeles.
F. A. Tritte, then governor of the ter
ritory, and others in San Francisco for
$500, 900. OF course the Schefileins lost
most Of their fortune. They couldn't
