territory. The chief centers of pro duction are Bisbee in the southern DOT tion of Cochise county, Jerome in Yav- apai county, Morenci and Clifton in Graham county, and Globe in Pinal county.
 The year 1898 has been a busy and profitable one for the copper producers in the territory. The production has not only been well sustained but it has exceeded the records of former years. Great advancements and improvements in the art of reducing the ores have been made, by which not only the cost Of treatment has been reduced, but ores of lower grade can be profitably treated, while at the same time a su- perior product is turned out.
 The managers at Bisbee, Jerome, Clifton and Globe have, in their re- Spective fields, been in the vanguard of progress and have not allowed the rep utation of Arizona for alert, progress sive intelligence to suffer or be dimin- ished
 As evidencing the importance of the copper mining industry in the territory and showing the progress that has been made below is given the produc tion of copper in Arizona from 1883 to 1898 inclusive:

of brands by counties it was possible and of frequent occurrence for one man to record a brand in one county and another man, purposely or acci- dentally, to record exactly the same brand in an adjoining county. Inas- much as the animals wearing these brands ranged at will over the coun- try, and the county lines offered no barrier to their travels, it was a source of endless confusion and litigation.
 Arizona was the last of the range states to do away with this county sys- tenn and have one central place where all brands must be recorded, and where one set of men could pass on the granting of new brands. As at pres ent enforced it is impossible for two men to have exactly the same brand anywhere in the territory, with the eX- ception of those who under the new law were transferred from county rec oIds and which of course will be re- spected. But as owners are learning that their brand is given by others than themselves they are applying to the board for new brands, and gradu- ally the old Implications will be done away with.
 As examples of this duplication un- der the old law I will state that there

man can doubt, and it is no over-esti- mate to say that we have not less than 600,000 head of cattle valued at over S12O00, ,000, and 600,000 head of sheep, worth fully $1,500,000.
 Graham county leads the list with 64,825 head of cattle, while Cochise, with 64,063, is very close to her heels. Yuma county has the lowest with but S37 head on her assessment rolls.
 The person desiring to embark in the livestock business in Arizona has a wide range of country to select from. Does he wish to run them on the open range, utilize government land and free water he can find a fine country most anywhere in the northern part of the territory and plenty of room. In Maricopa and Graham he can have his choice, and if he wishes to try the open range it is there, but if he thinks it safer and more profitable field he has thousands of acres of the most splen- did alfalfa lands, in a climate where it is never winter and the fields are green the year round. In southern Arizona there is not as much open range unoc- cupied but still in Pima and CochiSe counties there are large areas very suitable for the business which are un- occupied at present.

zona cattle was never so good as it is today The lesson to the cattlemen taught in the dark years of 1892 and 1893 was a rough but a good one, and in the end will serve to place the cattle business upon a much safer and more satisfactory basis than ever before.
 SALES OF CATTLE.
 During the year 1898 the number of cattle marketed in Arizona including those slaughtered for home consump- tion was about 2070O0 head. These figures would have been much larger but for the fact that early in April, owing to the declaration of war with Spain and the consequent tightening of the money market contracts for thou sands of cattle were annulled and the wouldIbe purchasers forfeited their ad- vances made at time of signing the contracts and simply announced their inability to receive the cattle.
 There is no doubt but that the trad Rng done in the early part of 1898 was ntirely too speculative in it's nature

ARCHAEOLOGY
By Dr. J. Miller.

So many attempts, more or less elab- crate in detail, have been made to pre- sent the archaeology of Arizona to the reading public that as local matter of news any~fresh attempt would seem supeTf1uous, unless the writer had some fresh material or had made some new discovery which he wished to record.
 Almost all the great ruined build ingS, temples, canals, etc, have been surveyed, diagrammed, photographed, or otherwise illustrated. The Mend Tiff brothers have performed an inn mense amount of work of this kind, embracing all of the noted ruined cities contained in the area extending from the Gila river to the nOrthermost limits of Arizona and from the Verde river eastward. including many points of in terest in New Mexico. The reports of this work have been published by the federal government in the reports of the bureau of American ethnology, to which reports the student is referred for details.
 The work of the bureau of American ethnology is the only thoroughly sys- tematic work of any magnitude that has been done that has advanced the sc1ence of American archaeology. Too much honor and praise cannot be given to Major J. w Powell and his able corps of assistants for their suc- cessful efforts in turning the attention of American students to American archaeology.
 The prehistoric American architect ure as found in Arizona and neighbor- ing territories is very interesting There appears to have been three stages of house building, viz, cliff houses, cavate and pueblo houses, each of these varieties of house building presenting features of interest that are peculiar and significant.
 Primitive man lived in caves and cliffs in all parts of the then inhabited

hands, but fortunately there was fine grass that fall and money from spring sales was still plenty, so that the herds already gathered were turned loose and the cattleman rested on his oars and waited for better times to come.
 At the present writing the demand for all kinds of Arizona cattle is excel lent at prices which, while not fully equal to last years figures, are still extremely satisfactory.
 SHIPMENTS FOR THE YEAR 1899
 It is safe to estimate that not less than 250,000 head Of cattle will be shipped out of the territory this year unless there should be some unfore- seen break in the market. The north ern ranges are practically aare of cat tie. Montana Wyoming, the Dakotas and Colorado all need the cattle of the southwest. Never since the boom days of 1886 have there been so few in the north as today. The northern buyers bought nothing last year and if there is anything in signs they mean to buy heavily this year but at less than last years figures.
 PRESENT CONDITION OF THE ARI-
 IONA RANGES.
 The cattle in Arizona went into the winter last fall in a very satisfactory condition. There was a slight short age of water in some pants, but gen orally speaking the range conditions were excellent. The winter so far has been an excellent one for stock In Arizona and especially in the valley of the Little Colorado there has been some loss from too much
Arizona republican., 1899-03-31

and 1893 will easily show the losses. Take for instance the great Aztec Land and Cattle company of northern Arizona, located at Ho1brook. In the season of 1892 they branded over 13,000 calves and in the season Of 1893 but $500, or less of over 65 peg cent of their whole herd.
 This drought was not confined to Arizona alone but the whole south western range country suffered alike. Since that year the cattle on the ranges have not increased so rapidly as before for the cattlemen have kept their herds down to a safe basis, and have sold COWS enough each year to keep the increase down to a normal rate. This has resulted in a better condition of affairs in that while there are not so many cattle, they are better graded and better cared for. These last three years have seen great inn provements in the business. Thou sands of. dollars have been spent for blooded bulls, and the grade of Ari-
