Loealt ccapty boasts Of one Of the
unique characters il Kentucky in the
person Of Lorenzo Pearcifeld, who
since childAocd las been an honcred
member Of the Shaker community ct
South Unio8, says The LoIisVil.e coIr-
ier-J ournaL Mr.. Pearcifeld is ncw close
On to 20 years OF age and weighs ebout
a0o pounds.
There is not another man in Logan or
any other county, so fer as is known,
who is 70 years old and weighs 800
pounds, who is noted as the most sue
cessful horse breaker in his section.
Yet this is true Of the colossal cd
Shaker. The secret of his success in
this direction seems to lie in his great
courage and strength. He is absolute
~ fearless and almost as strong as an
ordinary horse. lie has a system all
his own, which consists in first demon
strating to the perfect satisfaction Of
the horse that he is master al tle situ-
alton. To do this 1t is sometimes nenes-
sary to throw the horse down ard sit
upon his head, which Mr.. Pearcifeld
does in the most approved style. Aiter
5oo pounds has sat upon his horseship's
head for a little while he is satisfied.
Mr. Peareifield then bitches him to his
little cart and drives about and looks
at the country. SO great is his fame as
tanner of wild horses that the farmers
for miles around bring him unman-
ageabie horses TO break, and none has
bafiled his skin and strength.

ESTABLISHED FACTS.

CONCERNING Graham County, Which are
Well Worth Serious Consideration
by those Seeking new Homes, or Men
Seeking Profitable Investment for
Capital.
The agricultural resources of the
Gila valley are both varid and ex-
tensive, comprising an area OF
arabic land of which there is at
present tributary to canals and
bitches, 10000 acres which is
capable Of being irrigated. The
principal productsare alfalfa, wheat,
corn, barley, oats, vegetables, de-
cidious andoertain classes Of citrus
fruits.
This is the natural home of
alfalfa, of which from A to crops
are grown yearly, yielding from 5
to 8 tons per acre. 1t is not as
stocky as that which comes from
the Salt River valley and is pre-
ferable for either horses or cattle.
Wheat, barley and oats grow
proliticly, the former containing
very large amount of nutrition.
Yellow dent, white gourd and
other large varieties of corn yield
productivity, vegetables are large
and solid and come to maturity
two months earlier than In the
eastern and middle states.
The valley and hill lands are
adapted to all of the products of
the temporal zone, and many of
the fruits of the semi tropical
countries. The apples equal in
size and flavor the prize winners
of the eastern states. The seed
ling fruits are unexcelled III size
and general excellence. Apricots
and apples both grow with a sur
prising rapidity. The pea ,hes in
and taste are identical
with those which come from the
famous orchards of New Jersey.
Canagrie grows wild, cme of
the tubers being as large az good
sized potatoes. Tests now show
that canagrie root, which flourish
es near Thomas, IN the lower por-
ton of the valley, contains large
er per cent of tannic acid than any
ever sent to the extract works
from either Arizona or New Mexi-
co.
Farming lands can be purchased
at from $50 to 800 per acre, in
cluding improvements and water
rights.
Uncultivated land without water
right Is free to any settler under
the United States homestead law.
This class Of farms will eventually
become valuable when the canal
facilities have been increased.
The cost of maintaining the ca
nails which are owned by the farm
ers varies from 80 cts. to $1.00 per
acre per year.
The following are the market
values of the products of the soil
at the ranch, there being ready
sale for everything raised in the
Graham guardian., 1898-01-07

There is at present about lis
miles Of irrigatlng canals and main
bitches, not including the lateral
bitches which will make the total
several times this amount. This
gives ample water to assure crops
for about $4,000 acres. When the
Enterprise canal is finished it will
water several thousand acres of
rich table and bottom land. 1t
has been estimated that a quarter
of million acres Of additional land
could be irrigated if storage dams
were built. This could be done
in several places, notably at the
narrows about Is miles from SAT-
ford where a box canyon exists
through which the river passes.
1t is from this point the Enterprise
company are building their canal.
Graham county covers an area
Of 1000 square miles.
The Gila valley is 35 miles from
the narrows to the edge of the res
ervation, with an average width of
bottom lands Of two miles, the dis
tance between the foot hills being
six miles. The valley is lanked
on the north by the ella mountains
and on the south by the Graham
mountains, Mount Graham being
the highest peak, with an altitude
Of ten thousand feet above sea level.
Although but little prospecting
has been done in either the Gila
or Graham mountains, the few
properties which have been de-
veloped show that the ore body
is practically inexhaustable; while
copper predominates, there is both
gold and silver in paying quantities
1t is virgin field for both the
minor and captattlst and one which
promises grand results.
The two principal mining com
panies are the Detroit, at Morenci,
and the Arizona Copper Company,
at Clifton. The former employees
800 men and the latter 500.
The output of the Arizona comp,
any is 20 tons of copper per day
md of the Detroit about 10 tons
per day, These two companies
alone pay out for labor about $780,,
600 annually.
Experts are at present prospect
ing near Saffoad for coal.
There are twenty-five schools,
and one Academy in Graham
county. The examination for
teachers is very strict; only those
who are thoroughly qualified be-
ing able to procure certificates.
l2 churches OF different denomi.
nations look after the spiritual
welfare of the community. Soci-
ETY. is as refined here as IN any
OF the old eastern cities.

BRITISH WAR PREPARATIONS,

- UROPEAN war clouds-which, like the poor, l it seems we shall have always with us-are at 1 this time somewhat threatening than usual The cause of the is the extraordin- ary activity in the British naval and military depart ments This activity has been going since the announcement of the arrival of French force Of oc cupation at Fashoda and, from all reports, has reached a considerable magnitude.
 If there were any immediate danger of war; how ever the British Government would not be the only one engaged in mobilizing forces. Some other nation would also be active in preparing for con hict The fact that all other powers to be com paratvey quiet, and are not exerting any extraor dinary energies in equippng their armies and their navies, jushes the conclusion that none of them gards the British display serious menace.
 Another explanation than that of imminent may be found for the activity of the British War De partment It is known that the British, like selves have relied largely upon force of volunteer troops for the protection of the empire and the diff culty experienced by the United States in getting such force promptly ready for battle last spring made profound impression on the British public By way of testing their readiness, the British Government mobilized army corps last summer, and it will be remembered the results far from gratifying It IS possible therefore, that the present activity may be more than the performance of the work necessary make up the deficiencies in the
 
 It is clear, however, that or later the long threatening swar cloud must break The expansive forces of the great powers bringing them nearer and nearer together in Africa and in Asia. The friction between opposing claims and interests be- comes yearly more pressing and more grinding. Un- less something can be done to relieve the friction it is only question of time when 1t will cause flames to burst forth at point in the world and from there it will rapidly spread
 In the meantime the situation, if not dangerous, is extremely interesting. We have looked for war from the great military powers of the Czar and the Kaiser and not from the country known to the world as a nation of shopkeepers. Just now, however the Car is working for conference to arrange for general disarmament, and the Kaiser is journeying in the Holy Land ostensbly in the interests of the Christian religion while the commercial British are making gigantic display of naval force in every quarter of the globe.
 Whatever may be the motives of these different ac- tions, or whatever may be the results, will have good reason to rejoice our Thanksgiving day that we are not part of the European system

ROOSEVELT'S VICTORY.

Y loyal and intelligent Americans Tn all parts ot kA the country Roosevelt's victory in New York b-> will be hailed as of the most cheering re- sults of the elections While his contest, strictly peaking, was only State campaign, the issues in olved in it were broadly national. It question neither courage and honesty could win against all the rces of corruption banded together in the strongest rganization known to American politics The re- ut is glorious victory for the right It is another vidence that the American people be relied upon uphold honesty no matter how powerful may be le foes that combat 1t,
 Theodore Roosevelt has never been trimmer. He as never been a mugwump He has never played the art of a demagogue. He has been stalwart Repub- can and thoroughly independent at every age of his political career He has held his way
 all times fearless in the face of every form of oppo- inon that confronted him in the path of duty.
 Neither the camor of nobs the threats of bosses Aould swerve him from the faithful performance of is work His record in every office in which he has cen tried atests the sterling honesty of his character nd the votes cast for him yesterday prove that the eople can be trusted to support such whenever se appeals to them.
