Since the day the nlino was ineorpo-
rated the King Of Arizona stock could
probably not be bought cent below
par, but whatever the figure at which it
was held, twice the amount could not
'toi1ch It now, for the joyful news has
come from the mines that water has
been struck in the we'll being sunk,
says the Yuma Sun. It was hardly ex-
pected that signs would be noticed
much under 400 feet, but at 200 feet a
small stream began pouring into the
shaft, and it is ndw expected that q good
supply will be secured in less than 300
feet. The effect of this discovery on
the King of Arizona district will be
we'll nigh magical, as all those who have
had any experience in mining, in g dry
country will understand. The King
group, being OF sucn fabulous richness
as to make it possible to haul the ore
long distances, needed not to depend
upon any condition for development,
but the presence of water fcr milling
and other purposes rerders the proper
ties of great value many times greater
and makes the development Of. good
claims near at hand possible. Boring
is noa going on at the rate Of fifteen
feet a day. so that it is question of
but a few days when a plortiful, sepply
of water will probably be flowing into
the WE'LL and the future of the King of
Arizona district will Big assured.

providing that ali officers OF the terri

is foregone conclusion that we will
not be granted statehood during the
life of the present administration, and
home rule is the next best thing. The
movement IS non partisan, having been
gotten up by persons of all political
parties. It is being pushed in other
counties, and Navajo is as much inter
ested IN local se1f-government as any
other portion Of the territory, conse-
quently should organize and lend a
