1 Bridge Company VIII Build
Tukey's Bridge.

Boston Bridge Company Will Build
Tukey's Bridge.
The committee on public works at a
meeting yesterday voted in favor of d
forty foot bridge, instead of one thirty
four feet wide, es originally planned for
Tukey's bridge. The contract was
awarded to the Boston Bridge company.
The price to be paid was not made public
but the bid Of that company for the
thirty-four foot bridge was 500. 300 and a
forty foot bridge will cost upwards of
$40, 0D0 more than that. The committee
thought it better to have good wide
bridge, which will admirably accnmmo-
date the travelling public rather than
put up with narrower one. The COM
mittee also voted to purchase four new
horses for the street department..

The Maricopa Timber Cutting Case Dis
missed at Florence.


The whole of the United States
has been beaten by 500 cords of
wood, the defendant in civil suit
lately instituted by the government
in the United States court at Flor
ence. The suit in reality was
against John Standard, against
whom criminal proceedings bad
been previously brought, charging
him with cutting mesquite timber
on government land near Maricopa
The present action was to deter
mine the ownership of the WOOD
which had, notwithstanding the al
legation of the government, beer
cut on land to which Mr.. Standard
had filed entry or upon lands en-
tered by Mexicans in the vicinity
The interior department no
long ago sent out Judge Cummings

support of the governments con
tention. He was unable to secur,
it and the suit was dismissed upol
the recommendation of Assistan-
United States Attorney Franklin

Productiveness of tho Soil Not ExcolIed
by any Country in the world.
There is in the ella valley be.
tween Solomonville and Geronimo,
a larger area of cultivated land
than elsewhere in Arizona with
probable exception of the Salt
River country. 1t is owned and
occupied by thrifty lot of settlers
who when they came here knew
good thing when they saw one and
still know it. The land is never
idle. One crop comes off and an
other goes on. 1t is wheat, barley,
potatoes and corn, the two latter
following the two former with un-
failing regularity. When the wheat
and barley comes off potatoes and
corn goes on and when the potatoes
and corn are harvested barley and
wheat for the winter crops are
sown. Truly the land earns its
bread by the sweat of its brow,
That land can be so hard worked
and maintain its fruitfulness is al
most past belief to one unfamiliar
with the conditions under which
| the soil is made to so enormously
produce. The ella river from
which water for lrrigable purposes
is drawn, is freighted with essen.

of the earth's life by continuous
cropping is lost in the wealth ad,

EDITOR GUARDIAN;-There is u
young fellow down here who is
having more than his share of
trouble. He has to work IN the
store from 8 u. m. TO 8 p. m. which
is enough to break down any man,
physically. But his friends here
are greatly concerned as to the
safety OF his mental propeusrties.
His last best girl has gone back on
him. 1t wasn't because he was not
attentive or because he did not try
to do the square thing at all times.
But what else could you expect
when fellow has customers for
yard and a half of white cotton
cloth about every fifteen minutes
of the day, that is the customary
garment of the Apache tribe, you
know. Well to go back to the
girl, she has little brother and
she sent this little brother to the
store for sc" string and this
clerk didn't do a thing, but ask
the boy what he wanted with a
"Gee" string; 81 want it for sister,"
said he, and straight way went the
clerk and tore off one yard and
half of white cotton cloth, blush
ing and wondering mean while.
The boy first laughed and then got
mad and called the clerk bad
names and told him it was a guitar
string he was after. Gee! but
didn't that girl get wiathy when
her brother told her about it. But
speaking of girls getting mad the
one this fellow had last summer
got mad. She rushed In the store
and told him she wanted to take
something to kill nest of spiders.
He rushed at her with the carbolic
acid bottle and told her to drink it
with the remark that the acid
might kill her but he knew the
spiders would die as soon as they
ate lato vital organ and her only
hope to live was to take an an.
