 The Star speaking of Judge Hay den, who was recently in Tucson, says: Judge Hayden has been resi- dent of Arizona for forty yeas, and is man of most remarkable experi- ence. He left his home in New Jer- sey a. young man, after teaching school there for two years. He came west last teaching being in Missouri From there he came to Arizona and engaged in the mercantile business. He was one of the principal factors in estab- fishing the public schools in Arizona, but he never made any noise about it. He gave the pointers and counsel to those whom he kept to the front. The judge is still hale and hearty gen tleman, as straight as an arrow.
 Phoenix is preparing to make the anniversary of Washington's bithday more than ordinary affair The peo- pie have resolved to make it terri torial affair, and to have the people from every section of the territory come within the gates of the capital city and warm up, one to the other, that there may be a union of hearts union of symparhies and a union of interest created for the general beHe- fit of the territory. The proposition is a good one. Let the spirit of the people of Phoenix be responded to, by delegations being sent from every sec tion of the territory to commemorate at the capital of Arizona the memory and services of Washington, as befits the character of the father of cur common country.-Tucson Star.

ARBOR DAY PROCLAMATION.

TreriroIy of Arizona, Exceu i've Of fee:
 The law of this territory directs that the Friday following the first day of February in each year shall be ob- served as legal holiday and be known as ArbOr Day.
 The county school superibliendents of e2ch county are required to pre- scribe course of eXercises to be ob- served by the public schools. And il Is made the duty of the authorities in every public school to assemble the pupils under their charge and to have and to hold such exercises as shall tend to encourage the planting, pro- tection and preservation of trees and shrubs and the best methods to be adopted to accomplish such results
 In this arid region of almost per petual growth, with a climate so be- nign, the possibilities of the soil so generous, where plant life under tho VFtal1zlng power of irrigation devel- ops so rapidly and comes to such a high state of perfection; and where the desert can be transformed into the vineyard, orchard and forest growth, augment;ng rainfall, retarding evap- oration and thus creating natural res ervoirs, this day and its purposes are most significant.
 Therefore, I, Myron H. McCord, gov ernor of the territory of Arizona, pur- suant to law, do hereby recommend that Arizona's Arbor Day, Friday, February i, A. D., 1898, be observed by the people of the territory as the annual festival of the year, when par ents and children alike will partici- pate in the planting of trees, vines, shrubs and flowers, in beaulifying school grounds with living monuments of their school days; in the promotion Of forest and orchard growth and cul- tivation; in the adornment of private and public grounds, places and Ws and in such other efforts and under takings as shall be in harmony Wi,b the character of the day.
 Done at Phoenix. the capital, this 29th day of January. A D., 1898.

No New Strikes.

Now for facts. Not a strike has been
made. worthy of the name, since the
FL Dorado strike some two years ago
Last winter demonstrated that all of
Lower Bonanza, over a hundred claims
was worthless, and many a poor miner
lost his winters work. All claims above
~ on Upper Bonanza are worthless
All claims above 40 on Ell Dorado
proved worthless, and on each Of these
creeks from ''5" below to "4O' above
on Bonanza, and from "1' to "4O'' on
FL Dorado exhibit a spotted character.
There are, in fact, but about thirty
claims on each creek that are good,
some of which are very rich, and some
moderately so. There are only about
three claims on Hunker Creek that
so far have proven worth working;
about three on French Hill (of doubt
full character), while Sulphur boasts of
one, and Dominion also one. Henderson
Creek is abandoned. Swede Creek never
had any gold.
You see, the great gold fields" of
the Northwest Territory probably con-
sist of sixty-eight claims of from go
feet to 500 feet long. There are more
claims which will pay wages, but no
man will take the responsibility of de-
veloping them, when he can make as
much from somebody else. The dead
work about a mine here is tremendous,
and a S1O-a-day mine means about 50
day in the end.
But are the mine owners altogether
to blame for the boom? Decidedly not.

they have themselves betrayed They

by improper food and poor sanitary

but Dawson City is built in a swamp,

The rains do not begin until the last of
June, and then 1t rains almost daily.
Winter is the dreadful season. The Sc
verify of the climate confines one to q

if the poor miner has anything left in
the spring it is the scurvy.

GETTING THE GUARD READY.
War Time Scores at the State House at
Augusta.

Adjutant General John T. Richards
has received letter from Commodore
Rush of the Kittery navy yard commend
ing the steps taken by the General and
fothers toward the drafting of bill to be
presented at the special session of the
Legislature, should there be one, for the
formation of naval reserves.
The tickets for the transportation of the
Guard over the Maine Central Railroad
have not yet arrived, though they have
been arranged for. Should the tickets
not arrive before it is time to cali out the
troops, however, it will make no differ
ence, as the general can make the neces-
sary arrangements in very few mo-
ments. SO that the Guard will be trans
ported without the tickets.
GENERAL Richards said Thursday hat
1.-THE Eastport, Machias and Calais cornpa-
MES will be taken by steamer to the
Mount Desert ferry and brought the rest
oil. the way by rail. The reason why this
is done is because the Eastport and Calais
companies would have to be transported
through the Dominion of Canada if they
came by rail. -
The equipments are not yet all in, SO
the acquisitions filed by the various COM
pany commanders have not been filed,
and probably the equipments will not be
sent to them this week for the fear that
the call for the Guard might be necessary
before the equipments can reach them.
In case they are called out before the
equipments are sent them, they will be
equipped at the point of concentration,
presumably Augusta, though part of
the Guard may be assembled at some 9TH
er place in the State
The basement of the State House now
looks like general store, wit h all the
large packing cases lying about. In the
storeroom of the National Guard there are
stacks of boxes of all the equipments of
the Guard, that are arriving constantly.
The first glance through the door would
give one the impression that it was hat
store, by the piles of hat boxes contain
ing the campaign hats; but closer ex-
animation showing the stacks of rifle
that it is no ordinary hat store. In
another room there are men employed in
working upon the rifles.

The town authorities have been on the

it now seems as though the drive will
pass without mishap. The river has fallen
a foot and half, according to tine boss
