There has been much discus
sion as to the amount of increase
in circulation of national bank
notes that would follow the pas
sage of the new currency law.
The City National Bank of Buff
falo made inquiries of all the ma
tional banks, and from the re-
sponses received is able to very
closely estimate the increase.
The Immediate increase by the
present banks will be about $780,
100000. During the next year
other banks will increase $780,
100000. Still other canks report
that they will increase about
$22, 100000 when the price of
bonds decrease. Then there are
400 new national banks being
formed that will issue notes to
the amount of $40, 100000. So
the total probable increase in
the national bank currency dur
ing the next year is about $122,-
100000. The present circulation
isabout $3.50, 100000. The pres
eut CAPITAL of all the national
banks is 1913, 100000, and the
new banks will have a capital
Of SIS, 900, 900. When the total
circulation reaches 1852, 600, 900,
and the capital is 1928, 00o,O ZOO,
the circulation will still be less
than go per cent. of the possibili-
ties under the law for that
amount of capital.

RIVERS ARE LOW.
A Gloomy Outlook For Lumbermen in the
Northeastern Part Of
The State.

A telegram from Duluth. dated
April %, says: at has
been many years since the rivers OF
Northern Minnesota were as low at
this time Of the year as at present:
The ice and snow have disappeared
and there was SO little OF the latter
that it's effect upon the rivers was
scarcely perceptible. The lumber
men will have to depend upon rain
entirely to furnish flood to drive
their logs. The lumbermen are
satisfied that it Is going to be a dry
season. 1t has certainly been dry
enough TINS far this spring, al
there has been little more than the
scientific trace that the weather ex-
perts talk about. There Is q large
amount OF timber banked on the
streams tributary to the head OF Lake
and unless rain comes in
volume to produce a good
stage of water, the most Of it is go
ing to remain on the banks"

THE BONDS ILLEGAL.

It now turns out that there is no
law upon which Tempe could legally
issue bonds. The recent issue of $780,
600 for the purpose of CO, structing
water work have been turned down
by the eastern bond attorneys on
The ground that the census which
formed the basis 0pon which the
bonds were issued was not in accord
ance with the act of congress author
izng towns having a population of
one thousand or more inhabitants to
Issued bonds for public i'm provements
The council acted upon the best legal
adive la the territory but if bond
buyers refuse to take the bonds upon
the strength of the objection raised
the only course which remains will be
to remove the objection and this can
only he done by an act of congress
legallzlng the bonds. 1t is believed
that with the CO operation of Delegate
Wilson this can be accomplished in a
very short tiue. The council is now
preparing a statement setting forth
all the facts and conditions upon
which the bonds were issued. This
statement will be forwarded to Dele
gate 81 ilson with the request that he
at once bring the matter before con-,
gress and if possible secure :he pass
age of an act legalizing our bonds
The hearty co operation of our citi-
zens will be- of great assistance to

LANDS IN SEVERALTY

A bill has been introduced in con-
gress by Delegate Wilson providing
for opening all the mineral lands on
Indian reservations in the territory to
location, operation, development and
entry. This is q good bill and should
become law. It is another step to-
ward wiping out all reservations in
Arizona, which would cause the civi.i-
cation of the red man to proceed at a
more rapid gait than in the past.
The best way to teach the Indian to
tread the paths of civilization Is to
tring him in daily contact with civil :
ICED people, aad tho way to teach him
industry is to surround him with the
industrious. The agricultural land
on these reservations should be re-
claimed by the government ard given
to Indians for future homes, and they
could and no doubt would pecome
self-sustaining in a short time.
Throw open the Indian reservations
and allow the industry of the pale

LOVE AND LIFE INSURANCE.

obtains, but on the other hand, there
are instances where q wife's opposi-

after the lovy dovy days of the

The Milwaukee diving, evidently
knowing the feminine mind, advices a

aE-HIsToRIC CIVILIZATION
TODAY'S DESOJ AIION WAS ONCE A
GARDEN EVIDENCES OF ANCIENT
IRRIGATION.

One of the most marvellous engineer
ing accomplishments of ancient or
modern time is shown in discoveries
which were made last year in the lava
eds of New Mxico. Thousands of
years ago. the geologists tell US, sys-
tenn of irrigation reservoirs and
bitches was operated in the seuthwes'
which is not parallrled oy anything OF
this nature in the United States today
The builders of these works, people
older than the pueblo race, cultivated
housand of acres of now arid terri
ury. Reservoirs were constructed al
the base Of mountains to catch the
food waters bt fore they were absorbed
INTO the loose and hottomless sand
and the Glitch IS, where they rain
through sand, were crme'ted to pre-
vent the vat RS escape.
Lava has flowed into some Of these
bitches, once filed by sparkling water
in cen, uries gone by. What eau have
b en- the history of this pre-histor!c
race or what can have caused their
disappearance, can only te conjrc-
tured.
Unlike the ancients of other lands
these people have not left comple'e e
record of their glory and their down
fall al d WI ether it was the result OF
climate conditions or great upheavals
or whether they were supplan'ed by
more warllke and stronger races, is
mystery. That they were highly
developed, however, in agriculture,
which is the mother of civilization, is
shcwp bv the evidences which they
have left. Their canals wina in and
around for miles, showing a superior
engineering knowledge in securing an
exact and uniform f. !; remarkable
viaducts were used in crossing can
yons, while network or distributing
bitches brought every available acre
into use for tillage. Vast fields of way,

valleys, under the magic touch OF
