SCRIP FOR WATERING PLACES

The action of the Wyoming cattle
men in taking up watering places by
placing government scrip on the forty
acre tracts on which such water is
located, are doing wise thing and
their example might with profit be
more generally followed by Arizona
cattle growers. Land scrip costs
several dollars per acre but it affords
the means Of scouting almost imme-
diate title to the desired land. In
view of the possible changes in the
land laws, it would be we'll for cat
tlcmen to insure their tenure of the
range they occupy by procuring an
absolute title to all unappropriated
water snd to lands where water may
be easily developed.-Range News.

ECLIPSE Of THE SUN.

A special 10 the Times- Herald f, ON
Washington says the total eclipse Of
the sun, scheduled for the morning OF
May %, is regarded as an astroa-
omical event of the first caliber by the
experts at the Washington Naval
Observatory. Many weeks have been
spent in preparing for the phenomenon.
Sky charts and United States maps
have been carefully studied, with tho
result that the chief astronomers have
decided to equip two expeditions
one for Pinehuarst, Moore sounty, N.
@, and another for Barnesville, Pike
county, Ga.
10 the other North Carolina station
Prof. Skinner will pilot corps Of
twelve astronomers, and like body
will accompany Prof. Milton Updv :
graft into Georgia. There are two
reasons why the Washington star
gazers have selected these distant
points for viewing the coming eclipse.
First, desire to sef up their instru-
ments in the very center of the path
Of totality; secondly, a careful exami-
nation of the wdather charts indica, es
that they were much more likely to
escape cloudy skies at this season Of
the year in Georgia and North Caro-
lima than in Virginia, along the coast,
from which the phenomenon may also
be observed in the event Of q clear

The house and senate at Washing
ton have passed the bill opening the
Navajo reservations in New Mexico

the Albuquerque Citizen. The lands
thus opened are very rich in minerals
especially copper. Many persons from
Colorado are interested in the newly
opened lands. Many persons from
Colorado are interested in the newly
opened lands. Both houses agreed to
a conference for the adjustment OF
settlers claims on the reservation and
to permit mining north of the Seth
degree of, latitude and west of the
lllth degree of longitude. An effort
was made Friday to have the bill en-
crossed and presented to President
Mckinley for signature before his de-
parture, but without success, and tho
formal opening Of the reservation wil|
therefore be delayed several weeks.
A big rush of miners will probably
follow the signing of the bill.

A COLOSSAL SWINDLE.

Last week the Oasis editor met e
gentleman recently returned from
Cape Nome and other parts CT Alaska,
who asserted most positively that the
alleged rich mineral discoveries in that
region have mostly been greatly mag
nified, and that Che wonderful finds
are no more frequen, and numerous
than they were in Arizona, Sonora,
Colorado, and elsewhere, when those
regions were virgin ground. He
stated that the money received by
transportation companies alone for
carrying people and merchandise into
the frozen north will exceed by many
millions the entire mineral output Of
Alaska. All the rich finds are mag
ri6ed, and glowing accounts thereof
circulated far and wide to draw people
to the region, to reach which they
must travel oyer the steamship lines
Of the transportation companies. In
other words tbe whole thing is a gi-
gantic bpneo game by which the
steamship companies profit. Were 8
