MR. A. P. DAVIS left for Washington last Saturday, and from there will go to Nicaragua with the recently ap- pointed canal commission. Mir. Davis was for year employed as expert on the great work, and his services there have been invaluable, as they were here in connection with the Buttes reservoir. Mir. J. B. Lippincott will have charge of the work at the Buttes during Mir. Davis absence.

Work is said to be progressing rap- idly on the Arizona and Utah railroad in the Sacramento valley, which is to give the rich mining camp of Chloride railroad communication with the out side world. This will add greatly to the development of that promising re- zion, aside from the fact that it will make that many more miles of railroad within our borders. The Grand Can yon railroad enterprise also seems to be mov ing along nicely and ere many months it is hoped tourists will be able to visit this most wonderful of all nat- ural parks in Pullman palace cars.

IT is remarkably funny that no copying ink could be found in Nogales. and that they had to send all the way to Phoenix for two bottles, when right in the same building the Sonora News Co. had gallons for sale.- lOasis.
 Not any more remarkable than the fact that county official whom the TRIBUNE labored earnestly to elect should send to Phoenix for printing which the TRIBUNE had contract with the county for doing. Strange things happen in the wild and woolly West. Wasn't it Thompson's colt that swan the river to get drink of water !?

We have heard of several shafts here becoming twisted and getting out of plumb, but the following story from the Denver Mining Reporter is corker, says the Leadville Miner: "It is GUS tomary to suppose that everlasting hills are the most fixed and immova- ble objects in existence. In Leadville, however, there is one shaft about 700 feet deep where the bottom has moved eighteen feet out of line since the shaft was sunk several years ago."

WHY are not the Phoenix people willing to aid in securing additional appropriations for the Buttes reser- voir? Can they not see that when it is completed precedent will be estab- lished, and there will be hope for some of their own storage schemes? It looks like the same dog-in-the-manger policy that has always characterized the Salt river valley.

An additional demand for copper will be created since the Tippler process of liquefying air has been discovered. This harmless looking stuff has the power of dynamite when confined. The only known stuff that it will not render brittle is copper, and it is transferred in tanks made of that metal, open at the top. Scientists say that the use of liquified air for refrig- erating purposes is 8 certainty in the near future. There are many things that it will be used for and as copper is the only metal that it will not dis integrate, it will be seen that as its use increases the demand for copper will increase.

THE Phoenix Enterprise, although bat one year old, has gained a reputa- tion for honesty and reliability that many an older newspaper lacks. The judgment of the masses is rarely at fault, and a paper that advocates their interests, instead of those of the classes, will certainly succeed, and at the same time occupy position that subsidized hireiings of the press may never hope to attain. This world is not so bad as some would have us be- lieve, and though it may be slow to recognize decency, honesty and merit, those graces will win in the end, and for that reason the Enterprise will surely live and prosper, as it deserves tn.

gated to a depth of ten feet. The water ran into number of laterals and some of it into large shallow reservoir so that the evaporation and waste was about three-fourths of the amount conveyed in the canal. When we see the amount of water wasted we can understand what vast amount of land might be watered if the system was manipulated economically. In the last four years the minimum amount of water which has flowed through the Gila in one year was 365, ,O00 and the maximum 100000 feet"

The ancients believed that rheuma- tism was the work of a demon within a man. Any one who has had an attack of sciatic or infammatory rheumatism will agree that the infiction is de- moniac enough to warrant the belief. It has never been claimed that Cham berlain's Pain Balm would cast out demons, but it will cure rheumatism, and hundreds bear testimony to the truth of this statement One applica- tion relieves the pain, and this quick relief which it affords is alone worth many times its cost.

by Mr.. Wh.teiaw Reid. editor OF the New
York Tribune, discussing the advances In
international law and the changes IN ma
t!onai policy resulting from the treaty OF
The most important point in Mr. Reid's
paper 10 that the 80. 00o.o0 paid 10 Spain
upon the cesaon Of the Philippines to the
United States was not In the remotest de-
gree intended a. compensation for the
serts. because the Americans had a right
TO them az indemnity, Il not by conquest.
and that the money paid was solely in rec
ognition OF the principe that debts attach
Ing to territory and incurred for its bene-
ft should be transferred with its sover-
eighty.
Mr.. Reid contends that, while the Amer
leans were much reproached because they
were untustly accused OF ignoring this prin-
ciple In Cuba, where 1t Is no; applicable.
they have not received any credit abroad
for recognising 1t in the Philippines where
ing to apply. He also argues that. while
the Monroe doctrine stands mistaken. what
has been unsettled by the war with Spain
and the treaty OF Paris Is the old-time
American ideas as to the sphere of ma
tional activities and the power under the
United States constitution for their exist
ence.
