in the interest of river boats and lum- Der rafts, but of irrigation. It recog- nizes the fact that millions of new farms could be created in the west out of lands now practically valueless on account of their aridity, if the policy of saving up the waters wasted in floods could be universally effected by the use of storage reservoirs. Not only would there be this positive ad- dition to the wealth of the country, but millions of dollars worth of prop erty and many lives would be saved from destruction annually by uncon- trollable freshets."
 If the flood waters of the upper Gila, the Santa Cruz and Salt rivers were stored by reservoir system for distribu- tion, millions of acres of the most pro ductive lands could be placed under cultivation. much of which would yield perpetual crops of alfalfa pasturage or two crops of grain aDnually.
 All of these flood waters could he controlled at an expense less than it costs to carry on the war against the Filipinos for one month. Such an ex- penditure of the peoples funds would provide homes for tens of thousands of industrious farmers, resulting in the creation of a vast volume of wealth producing homes and thrifty people, instead of devastating foreign people at the cost of the lives of thousands of our bravest and best American citizens. Better, far better, would it be for our government to stop hloodshed and turn its energies and it's wealth to reclaim the arid west in the interest of the future welfare and prosperity of the republic.

Opinion of the West.
IFrom the Phoenix Enterprise.l

Towering above all other proposi- tions at issue is the scheme of estab- fishing federal reservoirs in the arid west. The torrential waters of spring time, if stored for summer use, would redeem millions of acres of highly fer tile land that is now desert and barren simply for lack of water.
 For number of years the irrigation ists of the west have been considering the question, and after full discussion through the press and otherwise, it has been decided to ask the general government to take hold of the mat ter as it is too big sn enterprise for private capital to handle. Of course there are yet choice locati ons, such as the Hudson reservoir, and others of like nature, that might protitably be built by corporate capital, provided the lands under such reservoir agree to guarantee the builders. But these exceptions are rare, and at best only small area of the vast irrigable public domain would ever be reclaimed as a private business proposition. The government, being owner of the lands, which are now of no value, can make such lands marketable by supplying water for irrigation. When the lands are sold to settlers the government will be reimbursed fully. Besides, homes will then have been furnished for millions of people and wealth will have been added to the nation. It would be equivalent to annexing that much of the most fertile plains in the world to our country. A few petty politicians and financial jugglers con- tinue to advocate cession of these lands to the states and territories. Arizona could not redeem these lands. They would be jobbed out to big syndicstes, and the public would be the losers.

Mining In Arizona.
From the Denver Mining Reeord.l

From the Denver Mining Record.l
 The overshadowing industry is the production of copper. The output for the year 1898 was l10,853, ,S64. pounds. For the year closing, Arizona is estimated to have produced 150, ,000,- GOO pounds of copper, valued at $25,- GOO, ,000, being an increase of about 40,- GOO, ,0G pounds. The increase was due largely to an increase in the capacity of the reduction plants and the output at the established mines. Part of the increase has been from numerous new properties and prospects which are being rapidly developed under the stimulus of the prevailing high price of copper. It is predicted that Ari- zona, within the next five years, will take first place in the production of copper in this country. In comparison with Arizona, the copper producing ground of either Michigan or Montana is circumscribed. There are already five points of activity, from 200 to BOG miles apart. These are, according tC l importance of production: Jerome, 1T Yavapai county; Bisbee, in Cochise

THE RAY MINES.
Six Hundred Indians and Mexicans Elm
 ployed.
From the Phoenix Gazette.l

lrFOu Ine FAO6ui1 0Hzetto.l
 The Ray copper mines, situated on Mineral Creek, Pinal county, are oper- ated by an English syndicate and run on plan that is entirely foreign to anything known to Arizona mining. The company has undoubtedly great copper property and will soon be turn ing out large volume of bullion.
 There are about six hundred men employed on the works-two hundred and fifty Indians, three hundred Mex jeans and about twenty-five white men. The Indians and Mexicans are getting Sl.50 day. The company is building a railroad from the mines to the smelt- ter, distance of six miles. The grad ing is all completed and rails and ties arriving daily. A 200. ton shelter is being built and will be in operation about the first of May. The Ray mine is one of the most peculiar mining camps in Arizona. Hundreds of Mex jeans and Indians, with only scatter ing white man occasionally. There are thirteen saloons at the camp and three at the shelter. The Indians procure all the fire water they want, and at the end of every month or the days following the monthly pay, these dark skinned miners have an uproarious time, and the mine is compelled to stop work till their fellows sober up. The Mexicans purchase the liquor for the Indians, who are of the Papago and Pima tribes, and in this way the saloons relieve themselves from vio- lating the United States law.
 The miners of the territory hope that when the big smelter is in opera tion the company will see it's way clear to employ white men, pay miners we ges, and make the Ray mine the leading camp of Arizona.
 The ore is there in abundance and all that is needed is the smelter, to pour out thousands of dollars worth of bullion daily from Pinal county's new bonanza camp.

Arizona shade Trees.

Under the heading "What to Plant on Arbor Day." circular issued by the Arizona Agricultural Experiment. Station recommends mesquite and palo verde in localities where there is little water. "Even where there is ample water for irrigation the mes- quite and palo verde invariably excel the umbrella and most other imported trees from an effective and decarat- i've standpoint at the expiration of five years after planting. This cer- tainly has been the experience of the University grounds at Tucson. Con- trary to the general opinion, the growth of mesquite, palo verde and other indigenous trees of our foot hills and plains, is remarkably rapid, particularly when grown for decorat- i've purposes. where they may be given moro water than under natural conditions. A specimen of palo verde now growing ou the University grounds has trunk ten inches in diameter and wide-spreading, hand some top, fully twenty-four feet in width. This tree grew from a seed since 1893. In rspidity of growth il has far outstripped the ash, locust umbrella, catalpa and mesquite grow | inc in like situation Tha station has on hand quantity of the seed ot this tree which they will willingly distribute free of charge to those de string to plant them.''

Pope Leo Says Twentieth Century Begins
 Next Year.

SACRAMENTO, January 6.-1n view of the widespread belief that Pope Leo XIII has officially declared that the end of the century took place on December 31, 1899, and of the sermon of Rev. Peter c. Yorke of San Fran cisco concerning the opening of the new century at the beginning of the year, an interesting letter is printed by the Bee tonight from Monsignor T. J. Capel, in which he presents 8 translation of the Pope's decree, which shows the Pope's actual declaration to be in exact opposition to the generally accepted view of his position. The letter follows:
 "To the Editor of the Bee, Sir The following extract from the uni versal decree of his holiness, Leo XIII, permitting midnight mass, December 3l, 1899, and December 3l, 1900, off, cially published by Cardinal Mazella, prefect of the sacred congregation of rites, Rome, on November l3, 1899, may be of interest in the much-vexed question of when the twentieth cen tury begins. It states very explicitly the view of the Roman ecclesiastical authorities:
 "Since, moreover, at midnight of the last day of December of the coming year, the present century will come to an end, and new one begin, it is very appropriate that thanks be given to l God by some pious and solemn cere. mony. < Therefore, in order that the approaching year 1900 may begin i happily through the application of God and his only begotten Son, our Re deemer, and that it may end after g
 prosperous course by ushering in g still more happy century, as it is right ! for us to expect, our Holy Father, Let

 If an adequate supply of wat could be obtained, Arjzona's produ ton of gold would cause her to ra with the first gold producing cou tries of the world.
 The territory's gold product for IS is placed at $4, ,5G0,O00. It is estimat, that the silver output has been 2,00C 900 ounces. The time is not far d tant when Arizona will take 8 leadi place among the mineral producers the Union.

A dispatch from Chester says: "Judg-
ment for 1925 was given yesterday by
Alderman Smith against E. E. Hanf,

not register as required. 1t was further
alleged that the goods purchased by E.

brought against him and the company
or as its legal representative in this State
by the Julins King Optical Company.
''When the goods OF the company were
