ADVERTISE in the Florence TRIBUNE, the only paper in Pinal county. The road to fame is through printers ink. The most successful business men are the most liberal advertisers. If you have anything to sell let the public know it. Do not endeavor to conceal your business any more than you would your talents under a bashel. What does it profit man if he should niggardly gain the whole world and t patronize his home paper, he looses his own soul.

Military obedience is all right in some cases, but when a man becomes so obedient as Dreyfus has been all along through his trial and confne- ment, if he is a wronged man, such obedience becomes disgusting when q man has to sink his manhood to be
 come simply obedient to his superiors. If Dreyfus had been born and bred in Arizona and would have been persecu- ted as all indicates that he has, there is not bit of doubt but that his Ari- zona grit would make the whole French government glad to let him loose and make an assignment William News.

BLAIR, THE REGULAR.

Flair the regular wounded lay On the slope of San Juan Hill; Near by were two of the volunteers, Bleeding and faint and still; And luther up, in palm tree hid. A Spaniard with deadly gun Took cruel aim at tho men below Dropping them one by one. One volunteer, with a feeble hand, Fought with the plaguing flies; It told the fact of lingering life To the Spaniard's watehful eyes. He raised his gun to his shoulder then And bullet sang afar; It hit the hat of the wounded man Who lay on the left of Blair. Another the boy on the right-hand winced. And uttered mean of pain; Another! Blair looked at his reddened blouse And muttered, I'm hit again. But there's one more load in my old gun His brow grew black with frown- And VOW I'll shoot that Spanish brute Who fires on men that are down." Weak were his hands as he raised his gun. But steady his eye and aim; Soon, round the trunk of the shielding palm. The head of the Spaniard came; Then up from theslope the Springfield spoke And answered the Mauser well; Blair, the regular, grimly smiled
 As the Spaniard shrieized and fell. The volunteer who lay on the left
 Moaned "Waterr' again and again. Said Blair, by making double quick Imay ca pture full eanteen," So, firmly shutting his whitening lips.
 He crept where the spaniard lay Secured the prize and cTewled slowly back Ah' painful and long seemed the way. You first" said both of the volunteers, As he held out the full caateen; They saw his blood-stained blouse, and
 they knew
 Right well what its cost. had been; Blair could but whisper to answer them. One hand on his bleeding side, 'You fellows have homes somewhere" |"

Colonel Wilson, delegate to Congress from Arizona, nearly met his death at the Nadeau hotel in Los Angeles the first of the week. He was seated at a desk in the rotunda of the hotel dietat- ing letters to stenographer, when a chambermaid dropped dust broom over the railing of the skylight from one of the upper floors. The broom struck the colonel on the head and in- hicted a painful wound. A deep gash was cut in his head and the wound ble great deal before physician could arrive. The doctor said the colonel had very close call. A fraction of an inch would have brought the wound to vital spot and death might have resulted.- IJournal-Miner.

A Michigan paper says: 'At Houghton, Mich, copper production is decreasing, though 4000 men were em- ployed less than year ago. Opening of new mines in Arizona draws work men from the older properties.

From recent editorial in the Phoe

From recent editorial in the Phoe- nix Gazette, it appears that the far mers of the Salt River Valley are considerably exercised over the water question. Some of the statements therein made may be fittingly applied to the present condition in the Casa Gran do Valley. Is may be well for the merchants and business men of Flor enee to give the matter due considera- tiou. We verily believe that there does not exist such serious state of affairs here in regard to water, but what could be remedied. It will re- quire the cooperation of the business men and the farmers, however, to bring this about. The business men are, or should be as much interested in the matter as the farmers, because, logically, no crops no trade.
 At present there is no scarcity of water in the river, and there has been an ample supply for all purposes near ly the entire season, but it is fact, the dam at the headgate of the canal has been in such condition, almost washed away, that the water could not be forced into the canal. and if the dam had rem2ined intact the canal is so filled with mud and silt, that it's carrying capacity at present is scarcely one fourth of what it originally was. It is fact that the farmers above and below the res ervo have not had enough water to irrigate their lands, aud their crops have suffered greatly It would make but little difference to the farmers whether the canal was re- paired or not, unless the canal was cleaned out and put into condition to carry water, and it would make no diff ference whether the government built the reservoir or not if the farmers re- maiued without the means of convey ing the water to their lands. As Q matter of fact the canal company as sumes to supply water for about six thousand acres of land, and it is true that the canal is not sufficient to sup ply water for more than one half that amount of land, even if the water had constant flow. At the same time the farmers are paying one dollar and fif ty cents per acre. It is but just that when they pay their money they should have the best water service in the power of the canal company. The revenue derived from the sale of water amounts to about nine thousand dol lars. This ought to be sufficient to pay all current running expenses, and at tthe same time make some needful improvements. It is to the interest of the company to improve it's canal. It has sold about thirty thousand acres of water rights. If it's canal was in con 'dition to carry more water, it could sell more water, and increase it's rcve- nnes without additional expense, be- sides it would encourage more develop ment of the lands. and larger area of cultivation. Farmers would then meet with more encouragement, ald would feel that their homes, orchards and vineyards were secure and of some value. Better and more crops could be grown, and day of prosperity dawn upon the Casa Grande Valley. We trust that the business men and farmers work together in this matter and present the facts to the company, and devise some way and means to inn prove the present condition. It is dangerous to delay in matter of this kind.

Copper ore is generally believed to be detrimental to the successful opera tion of the cyanide process. Such, however, does not appear to be the case. oxidized ores cause more trouble than su'phide ores. Some copper sul- phides from the mine which have not suffered oxidation give less trouble than hose which are partly oxidized. HEX.
