Give me but one drink Of water and let then ar.

Seeming doubtfully the purpose Of the focc,an to

The Ray Mines.
From the Globe Times.l

Milton Brown, a carpenter from the Ray mines, walked over the trail from the camp last week. He says 40x60 air compressor house is undr way at the mine. The improvements at the river, when finished, will result in a small town. Ten houses are now going up for the company. There are thirteen car loads of company lumber at Casa Grande.
 The 200-ton concentrator will be a modern affair. A telephone line is now in operation from the river to the mines.
 E. A. Heberlein is in charge of the mill at the mines.
 Three triple compartment shaft are down 100 feet on the Tribunal and Humboldt. Each have gasoline hoist.
 There are six saloons, three boarding houses and two stores.
 The labor employed is Mexican with the exception of the shift bosses.
 There are three doctors there and a graveyard has been started.

WATER-RIeHTs.
An Important Phase ofths Irrigation oues-

ton.
 Prof. Elwood Meade. at the eighth session of the National Irrigation Congress at Missouls, called attention to matter in connection with irriga. tion, which is becoming more and more important to farmers in the arid region. namely, water-rights.
 From being like air and light, 7 said Mr. Meade. "the common prop erty of all, and equal to meeting the demands of all, water has become so valuable that controversies over it's appropriation are coming to be waged with an ingenuity and fertility of re- source only equalled by the importance of the property sought to be control led, and by the indifference of the public as to the result. If farming under irrigation means that those engaged must raise crops simply to pay lawyers fees, there is no question that the ultimate verdict will be that a dependence on the uncertainties of rainfall is to be preferred to the uncer- tainties now attendent on the diver sion of streams, and that the vicissi- tades of the clouds are less to be dreaded than constant attendance upon courts"
 Mir. Meade made a strong plea for general system in measuring rivers, in supervising the issuance of titles to water, as is done in the survey and disposal of public lands. An evil of state court decrees, he said, is that the decrees ignore the irrigator. It is largely held that water is the exclusive property of the company owning the canal; Mir. Meade, however, holds that rights for irrigation should be inseparable from the land reclaimed.
 The United States Agricultural De- partment is now instituting irrigation investigation and Mr. Meade states that this work is destined to have an inestimable value in presenting iu re- liable and comprehensive form the facts regarding the time of year when water is needed, the volume used, and other necessary data. These inVes- legations are destined to do more, how ever, than to promote the reform of water contracts, and to act as guides to courts and irrigation authorities. They will show to the east that irri- gation h as more of benefit than of necessities to the east as well as to the west, and the fact that the general government is rich in something be- sides public land.
 "As it is now," said MT. Meade, practically all of the soc, .000 acres of public land might as we'll be on the moon for all ths good it does the homeseeker, and the rivers are only 8 source of expense because there is no agency to direct their conservation and use."

catarrh Cannot be Cured

with LOCAL APPLICATIONS, as they cannot reach the seat of the disease. Catarrh is 8 blood or constitutional disease, and in order to cure it you must take internal remedies. Halls Catarrh Cure is taken internally, and acts directly on the blood and mucous surfaces. Halls Catarrh Cure is not qnack medicine. It was prescribed by one of the best physicians in this country for years, and is regular prescription. It is composed of the best tonics known, combined with the best blood purifiers, acting directly on the mucous surfaces. The perfect com bination of the two ingredients is what produces such wonderful results in curing Catarrh. Send for testi. mouials, free.

The Florence tribune., 1899-12-23

The present city council took the most important action in it's history at a special meeting held last night, says the Tucson Citizen. All members were present. Councilman Russell moved that his ordinance ordering the sale of certain lots on the Military plaza be placed upon it's second reading; car ried. Mir. Russell then moved that the ordinance be placed upon it's third reading and adopted carried. Only Councilmen Kilt and Cark voted against the ordinance. Councilmen Russell, Perry, Pusch and Woods voted for it's adoption and the mayor gave it his formal approval, thus passing it. One of the lots will be advertised for sale during the next few days and when it is said test case will be brought in the courts to determine the legality of the sale, thus settling that vexing question forever before any more lots are sold.

Casa Grande Ruin.

Of interest not only to the people of the Southwest, but of people of the country generally. who would wish to see preserved from utter decay one of the most remarkable historial rulns on the continent, is the following ex- cerpt from Secretary Hitchcock's re- port:
 "The Casa Grande ruin, one of the most noteworthy relics of prehistoric age and people in the United States, is near Florence, Ariz. It is built of the material known as jacon-that is, pud- died clay, nodded into walls and dried in the sun, and of perishable charac- ter. It is located on 460 acres of land which was reserved from settlement by Executive order of June 22, 1892.
 "The custodian, Rev. Isaac T. Whit temore, reports that the building is without roof, and the action of the elements on the upper edges of the walls of the building is causing them to disintegrate. Further, that if the walls were properly braced and 8 roof is provided these remarkable ruins will be preserved for many coming generations, and that there is urgent need for an appropriation by Congress to provide for the preservation of the ruin.
 :" concur in these conclusions, and reiterate the recommendation of my predecessor in office that 5000 be ap- propriated to provide for the protec- tion, etc., of this ruis."
