Week ending July 8, 100

week ending July Q, lJVl,
The fore part of the week was
cloudy and cool, with light showers
in the western section, and copious
showers in localities of the eastern
section.
The latter part of the week, be-
ginning with the 4th, was sunny
and moderately warm. The day
temperatures were 20 and 90 deg.
in the western section, and about
ten degrees higher in the eastern
section. The warm weather was
favorable for growth, and nearly all
crops made Gne progress.
Cutting the frst crop of alfalfa
is about finished east of the noun
tains, and timothy is now in con-
dition to cut. Some hay in Stew.
ems county was caught down by the
heavy rain on the Bird, but it turned
warm and dry so soon after that
not much will be lost. The fore
part of the week was not favorable
for haying in the western section,
but the latter part was fine haying
weather and was generally inn
proved. Clover is heavy, and has
fallen down in some places.
Oats are reported as very heavy
and rank in the Skagit country,
but are said to be heading short in
the southern counties.
The copious rain OH the night of
the 2nd and morning of the Ord in
the east was of vast benefit to
spring wheat, oats and barley, and
has done much to insure large
spring wheat crop. Winter wheat
is ripening rapidly, and in the ear
Tier localities will be ready to cut
in ten days. The berry is plump
and heavy.
In the neighborhood of Cotton,
Whitman county, high wind and
rain flattened considerable winter
wheat and barley.
Hops are beginning to bloom in
the Yakima country, and west of
the mountains are arming out. In
King county they appear slender

The locator of a mini ng claim located any time this year has until December 3l, 1902, to do the $1O0 worth of assessment work required to hold it. On unpatented mining claims locat- ed prior to January 1, 1901, there remains but forty days in which. the requisite work must be done. A mining claim located on Janu- ary 1, 1901, does not require as- sessment work in the year 1901. Assessment work must be done in 1902. The claim, unless as sessment work is done in 1902, becomes forfeit and is locatable again on January 1, 1901, but not before then. Assessment work done in 1901 does not save doing in 1901. It must be done in 1902 for that year.-M. and $. Press.

and granite, which are also kept clean and wholesome, as are all parts of the prison. In marked contrast to other well-known prisons, no word of complaint has ever come from a Yuma pris- on convict of either the treat ment received or of the condi- tions or surroundings of the prison. In no other prison in the United States are the inmates treated more humanely. There is nothing "hideous" about the Yuma prison except the unwar- ranted statements which appear from time to time in the Repub- lican and a few other newspa- pers of the territory
 If the Republican would exert it's "pull" with the present terri torial administration to try to in- induce the governor and board of control to utilize the S25, 900 appropriated by the last legisla- ture to enlarge and improve the prison, it might accomplish something vastly more creditable than by printing long-winded fabrications about the prison.

A GOOD FRIEND.

The Los Angeles Herald is a true friend to this territory in our fight for statehood. The following is the Herald's answer to the Los Angeles Times:
 Following it's quixotic pro- pensity to, attack everything in sight, the Los Angeles Times is now giving its attention to downing" Arizona's effort for statehood. Notsatisfed with it's argument that the territory should be kept out of the union for partisan reasons, it turns savagely on the Arizona people and their newspapers. The Times says of the Arizonans: Twenty years ago they were discussing the same problem. :. then, as now, the statehood boomers made noise as dispro- portionate to their numbers as do couple of coyotes on the moonlit mesa.
 "The Times supplements it's abusive tirade with what pur- ports to be a letter from an Ari- zona citizen, in which the state hood proposition is hotly antag- onized. The letter, as might be expected from the fount of it's publicity, appears with a dash in lieu of @ signature. Arizona men are not usually either ashamed or afraid to back their words with their names, and hence there is ground for suspi- cion that the dash is the "totem' of the Times, signifying made in Los Angeles. In other words the bellicose brigadier general may be once more indulging iii bbs favorite pastime of writing letters to himself.
 "Only two points are urged ii the long drawn letter in ques- ton. One is the partisan objec- tion raised bv the Times. srd the

JUDGE STREET GOES TIC
 WASHINGTON.

Judge Street has gone to Washington, where he will have a hearing upon the charges that have been preferred against him November Fist.
 It is understood that one of the charges is that Judge Street accepted and received a large sum for a decision favorable to the King of Arizona mining com pany in the case of $. Morgan Smith versus that company. Last summer, after the charges had been preferred, s. Morgan Smith, according to the Phoenix Republican, assured Judge Street that he had no hand in bringing the charges, furthermore that he did not question Judge Streets honesty in rendering the decis- ion, which was adverse to him, and offered to write to the de- partment expressing his conf dence in Judge Streets integrity.
 Judge Conroy Of Los Angeles, who is counsel for $. Morgan Smith in other litigation, but who was not in the case at Yuma, said of the decision that it was a just enc; he said that after ex- amining the record carefully he did not sec how any other decis- i ion could have been honestly rendered.
 It is said that another charge is that Judge Street received a big fee for his services as an at torney since he has been on the bench. We have it from very good authority that there is nothing in this charge, the fee being for services performed be- fore he became judge.
 The Sentinel does not believe that Judge Street is a bribe taker OF that any of his decisions have been dishonest.

other is the novel idea that Ari- zona cannot afford statehood. As the first proposition is under stood by readers of the Herald, attention will now be called only to the second one, The ''totem" letter says: The second feature of statehood would be added eX- pense, with added taxes; there would be no way out of it; we would be compelled to pay our state officials, our trial judges, our legislators and their expens- es, all items that are now met by Uncle Sam In other words, Arizona should remain territo- ry for the sake of having Uncle Sam continue to pay it's expens- es. To be more explicit, accord ing to this view Arizona is a pauper, dependent for it's living On the bounty of the federal gov ernment. In population, wealth and natural resources Arizona today has stronger claims to statehood than three fOurths of the present states had when they passed from territories to states. California should be particularly earnest in efforts to assist the sister territory. Our own states progress was checked while in it's territorial stage because of delay in it's admission to state hood, for reasons akin to the main objection raised by the Times concerning Arizona. But immediately after the admission of California the state bounded into prosperity, and like resnlt would now follow the admission of Arizona.
