 The mining camp of Congress, Yav- apai county, which was recently al- most totally destroyed by fire, is being rebuilt with adobes instead of 1um- Der.

does not apply to where long, hot drives are to be made In such cases it would be better to feed at the other end, as the corn and oats might SCOUT the cattle on such a drive. Caution should also be used in bedding the cars; money spent there is money saved; it vii reduce the shrinkage and the number of cripples.
 Fire all fast hands when you begin handling beef stuff. They need the care which a mother gives her babe, and positively will not stand rushing or rough treatment. One green hand on a wirey broomtail might cost you hundreds of dollars on the driving of single herd of beef cattle, if not watched. A mistake that is often made by shippers is watering their cattle just before loading. For in stance they start them from here to the railroad and do not have a chance to water more than once or twice on the way. Then they fill them up on water and load. As result the cattle SCOUT all the way and at their destina- tion are badly drawn. It is always a good idea to have cattle as full as pos sible before loading them on the cars, but not of water nor food that con tains much moisture. In the summer time cattle need right smart of wa ter and should be watered as often as possible while en route to market, but should not be allowed to go too long without water and then gorged. Feed good sweet hay on the cars and then get to market as soon after loading as possible Menard Enterprise.

THE BEEF STEER.

For fifteen years have been closely connected with the handling of steer cattle and perhaps can give some in
 formation of importance to stock rais- CTS. I note that Menard county stock men generally take their cattle right of the grass and ship them to mar ket. It is mistake to ship grass steers to market without first feeding them two or three days in the pens on hay and corn or oats. This will pre- vent them looking grassy on their ar rival at market and their shrinkage will not be half so great. They also bring bit more per hundred than if improperly handled. Of course this

SALE OF MINES AND PROSPECTS.

There is a common cry among the newspaper writers of mining para graphs for the curtailing of the oper- ations of middle men in the sale of mines, between buyer on the one hand and owner on the other. The object aimed at is to bring the buyer and seller together and save the middle mans commission.
 The business of the mining engineer is to report on mines and prospects for purchaser or owner, and often to find the capital required to extend the in dustry, as we'll as the active operation of mines, and the milling and smelting Of ores, and, incidentally the sale of mines and prospects. His legitimate work in these directions is largely in terfered with by a class of real estate men, broken down lawyers who pose as experts, and others, whom the writ CTS referred to have just cause of com plaint- This class of financial failures are the parasites who live on the back of the mining industry, and for the benefit of which it would be well if the. industry could be protected from their operations. In the western states they are more numerous than in the east, where the services of the mining engineer of integrity, experience and honest dealing is consulted by beth buyers and owners of mining property. AS the advertising columns of all min ing papers contain the business cards of such parties, there is no excuse for consulting or placing mining property in other hands for sale. The common error complained of is in deceiving the owner and injuring the district by loading the price of the property to such an extent that it will not sell, or at which it would be impossible for it to pay dividends on the inflated value placed upon it by the inexperienced or over jealous middle man. Unfortu- nately for the industry, there is too just cause of complaint in these cases, as the owners readily become a party to it, in the desire to get all they can for what they Lave to sell. They ought to remember that capital is not tied to any country, state or district and de mands investment in any enterprise which will pay dividends on the amount invested. The days are long past when an owners statement is taken, without due investigation and trial of careful working tests made of the property offered, to satisfy the intending purchaser that enterprise will pay interest on purchase price and capital, and that the ore reserves are sufficient to warrant the purchase.- Mining and Metallurgical Journal.
Arizona republican., 1898-05-19

ownership of capital affected the la horing men. We will now show how this can be remedied. The govern ment which is, or should be, the agent of the people, should own it and inc people could receive their produc- tions at exact cost.
 One of the objections to the govern ment extending its power is that it would foster corruption. Compare the government of Great Britain, which has been gradually extending it's pow CTS, and is getting less corrupt with that of our large cities A great part of our corruption is due to the ignor- ance and unconcern Of the great la boring masses, Universal education and political interest would lessen this evil. These come as result of leis- ure and feeling of responsibility. If people did not have to work all the time, as most of them do now, they would have more time fer thought and study, think more of their country, read more and naturally vote more in- telligently Now the laboring man Is simply a tool, part of the machinery and he is not responsible for the way the great wealth producing factors of our country are governed. If every man owned a share in the wealth of the country, each would feel a respon- sibility, nerve himself to meet it and grow stronger by the effort.
 As our smaller machines are ab- sorbed by the larger and production is carried on by a few large machines instead of great many small ones the cost of production gets less, as for ex- ample, the refinement of sugar. In competition the tendency of all busi- ness is the big fish will swallow the little ones, i. e., the large combines will absorb and crush the small ones If this ompetition is right, why ob- ject to department stores, little fish?
 Would it destroy incentive? I ad- init it would destroy certain kind of incentive grow wealthy-the 1n- centive which is furnished lavishly now to most people, to spend all their energies on physical needs, in getting food. But, would giving man time and not compelling him to overwork himself destroy the incentive to learn and do good?
 It makes man ashamed to drive in a coach and six, leaving the ragged beggar unfed and unclothed at the back door. But he knows that there are many such beggars, that the one mentioned is just an example. After awhile he gets used to the sight of them and it ceases to shock and repel him. The beggar is hurt because he is SO hungry and cold that he can hardly think of anything but the in- justice and how he can get something to eat This soon leads to crime. That private capital fosters this, ad- init. The wealthy man will be among the first to say that the possession of wealth by all who labor would de- stroy incentive, yet he would give uI none of what he has, and in nine cases out of ten will want laws that will let him bequeath it to his chil- dren and destroy their incentive. But of what good is an incentive that teaches man greed, that teaches him that it is right to take his neighbor's s property if he can do so in a smooth way and not disobey the law, that the fittest should survive, and that the strongest are the fittest?-Delivered Friday evening.

cd to thut portion OF the city At the same
time tho petition demonstrated the effect
that wonld be produced If thsir wells were
to refuse to yiold, as they would havo no

stantly realized the Importance of the pcti
