ENTERPRIsING PHOENIX.

Phoenix though wide-awake dreams
some of the most pleasant dreams pos
sible, and there is no one but who
wishes her dreams may come true.
Having heard of the intention of Pres
ident Mckinley to visit the west,
Phoenix has decided TO make an eff
fort to have the president accept her
hospitality long enough that earnest
pleadings for statehood for Arizona
may be poured into his ear. 1t is be-
lieved that if the president will visit
the territory and come in contact with
the people so that he can see the ad-
vancement and progress apparent on
all sides. the cause of statehood will be
greatly advanced. May the fondest
dreams of Phoenix in this line mater
ialize and in the end result in the adj
mission of Arizona as one of these
United States.
CLIMAX JIM REFORMS.
In Apache county Arizona there is
we'll known cowpuncher known as
Climax Jim, whose real name is Rufus
Nephews All men who ride the
ranges sooner or later are endowed
with a fitting sobriquet which signi-
fies some particular weakness which
the cowboys hit upon as an easy man
ner of distinction. Nephews possessed
d weakness LOT SllIIld8 CHtWihS
co and the boys named him Climax
Jim. He has been in the county Jail
at Solomonville on several occasion
charged with grave crimes but he has
never been convicted. as no one has
ever been able to discover that he has
the capabilities of performing all the
deeds accredited to him. He has sue
ceeded in convincing most of his &C
quaintances that he is not such bad
man as he has been pictured and most
of them believe him to be creature
of misfortune. rather than Of crime.
Recently he has announced that he
has reformed; that henceforth he
would even abstain from chewing Gil
max plug and will live so free from
evil that he may ride the ranges with
out any fear of being pursued by Off
GERS of the law. The cowboys are al
ways quick to notice and reward re-
form in their companions, and they
have changed the name of Climax Jim
by placing a Bryan anti in front of
it and hereafter he will be known as
Jim. Bye and bye maybe
he will be called Uncle Climax Jim.

and was badly injured and now he is
in the railroad hospital suffering with
broken leg and other injuries. He
was caught between falling timbers

A CASE OF "SPOSIN."
The Pennington Times advocates a
new law which will allow towns of
less than 500 population to incorporate.
The object the Times has in view is
getting Pennington incorporated.
That is all right and shows an enter
prising spirit, but the reason the
Times gives reminds one of a story.
Here us the reason the Times gives:
Suppose a abroad should commence
building through here. What police
power or protection have we other
than the justice of the peace and con-
stable?" Here is the story: An old
wrinkled woman sat on her front door
step crying bitterly. A man passing
stopped to inquire of her the cause of
those copious tears. 'Oh, 1 just got
to thinkin'," said the old woman, be-
tween sobs, Il just got to thinkin'

But there is no exemption from disease,

may see the cheeks grow hollow and the

Emaciation, and consequent loss of
weight, are among the most striking
symptoms of what are known as vast

TOMBSTONE SHOT UP.

The memories of days by-gone were
awakened at Tombstone the other
night by a band of cowboys shooting
up the town in the good old way The
people shivered in their beds lest a
stray bullet might find its way into
private places and rumors of terrible
crime were waited about on the morn
ing air, but when the light of day
came no blood was running through
the streets and no splinters were stick
ing in on the store fronts. The town
was not so badly shot I'D as the bull
lets were. The Prospector takes ad-
vantage of the occasion to saw a few
things against the practice of carry
ing concealed weapons" The Pros
pector's speech is out of order, mas
much as in this case the weapons that
disturbed the editor were far from
being concealed.
