Some idea Of what it cost the
yallar;jacksts or gold-bugs of New
York to "hold up" the hand of the

that state, may be gathered from
the fact that Timothy Woodruff,

declared null and void, and him

able that McGowan's prayer will
be granted, especially in view OF
the fact that the Attorney General
of the United States has ruled that
Gen. Joe Wheeler being a Major.
General in the volunteer service

To offset the disagreeable weather
the farmers of the Gila Valley are
jubilant over the rise in the price
of hay this month. This was to be
expected in view of the increased
demand at Globe due to lower rates
of transportation and the conse-
quent storing up of grain and hay
for the winter With reference to
the recent mining excitement
north east of Wilcox Mr.. Dunlap
could say but little. Complica-
tions had arisen which had check.
cd the interest somewhat. John
Brockman, manager of the famous
Commonwealth, had an eye to the
main chance and was ready to
work certain claims he had taken
"a bond on, but as the matter of
ownership was In doubt he with.
held from taking action until the
ownership could be absolutely set
tied.
1t is certain that paying ore is
below, else Mr.. Brockman would
not entertain the idea of putting
money into the new district, being
a shrewd mining operator.-Star.

The large amount OF rain fall
we are receiving is o sure indica'
tion of heavy crops next year. And
large crops will certainly be requir
ed to supply the ever increasing
demand. 1t seems that the de-
mand for farm products of this
valley is growing much faster than
the production which showed de-
monstrate to all minds that some,
thing must be done to reclaim the
vast amount Of waste land that to
day is doing nothing and is almost
yalucless, but which will becomt
very valuable as soon as water IL
turned into it. With the increase
of mining camps in the vicinity o.
the Gila Valley there is no fear
even with all the land under cultl
walton, Of the supply ever exceed
ing, TO any great amount, the de
mand. THIS fact will always In
sure a good price for the farmers
produce.
