John r. Leaning is the proudest, the
happiest and the most self-satisiied
mortal in our booming city these days.
He has temporarily quit work, and is
going around whispering in the ears OF
his friends, "twelve pounds" 1t
seems that little love-god, a perfect
Apollo, gained enterance into his house
on last Saturday, and has been run

looks meekly on and submits to all
things: Jack has resigned as head of
the House, and says the intruder can
have the carpenter shop, and the entire
city of Redstone if he makes the de-
mand.

JOIN THE ASSOCIATION.

The International Industrial Record says: Now that there has been organ ized the Southwest International Min ing Association it is to the direct in- terest of each and every mining man in the southwest, as well as that of the association, for them to become mem- bers. This association, if properly conducted, and possessing members in all the various districts of the vast mining region surrounding Fl Paso, can be made the strongest factor in the development of the industry of any other that could be originated. Let every member bear this in mind con- stantly, and enlist all his friends and acquaintances in the cause.
 The success of the association depends entirely upon the personnel of the executive board and those having the organization in hand. That it will be of much benefit to the mining interests goes without saying, unless some de- signing, interruptions grafters are al- lowed to take the places of promi- hence and to map out the road the as- sociation should travel.

A correspondent of the Stafford Guar dian writing from the capital city says;
 There is Some talk of county division but the Graham county members will vote against any measure to create a new county out of Graham.
 Cochise county had two members in the Legislature one time who refused to VOTE for county division but at the same time succeeded in working up a strong sentiment in it's favor.

THE NEW CODE.

The Tucson Star is out with an edi- torial advocating the referring of the new code prepared by the code commis- sion to the Judiciary committee of both houses of the Legislature and that they make their report on the code to the next legislature, provided of course that they receive remuneration for their serAices. Such course would be an act of folly and delay, to say noth- ing of the expense and extravaganza if the proposed plan should be adopted. There is no question but what the code commission was given authority by the last legislature to add to or cut out parts of the old code which in their op- inion was necessary. The commission was composed of the ablest lawyers in Arizona and no doubt the work entrust. ed to them has been executed in con scientious and painstaking manner, from legal standpoint. The legisla- ture should demand from the commis5 SlOu d ueIdllSu ISpOFU SuOWlllS llie changes, additions, and ommissions that were made in the old code. This re- port should be taken up by the legisla- ture line for line, section for section, and as the changes recommended suit the views of the Legislature, that part of the report should be adopted. The legislature is the only body that can ultimately pass on the new code and if the present legislature shirks it's duty in this direction the same condition will confront the 22nd Legislature. The new code has been prepared and presented according to bill passed in the last legislature and it rema ins for the present body of law makers to pass on it. Even if the present session ac- complished nothing more than the r. peal of the poll tax law and the adop- tion of new code, their time will have been well spent.

WITH the building of the Nacosari railroad from Douglas to Nacosari through rich mineral district we may expect to see several valuable mining properties developed. It is matter of history in Arizona that following on the heels of railroad has come capi- tai ready to invest in any legitimate mining property which has become more valuable by the addition of cheaper transportation. Mining and railroad building have always gone hand in hand in Arizona, and each has been a powerful factor in the success of the other. Give us more railroads and the southwest will yet rival the world us a mineral producing section.

ANY proposition now to make two territories out of Arizona is on a par, so far as reason or justice is concerned with the proposition to divide Yavapai and Graham counties. It is remark able coincidence that the argument used in each instance is economy, that two counties or two territories can be run cheaper than one.

PUBLIC opinion endorsed the action of the President in ordering the flags on all public buildings in Washington half-masted for the death of Queen Victoria, although it was the first time that such thing has ever been done, and, as usual, there are few croakers who express the fear that the prece = dent established is not good one.

Ger tainly no town in Southern Arizona has any brighter prospects at present." Mr. Fergerson believes large number of residences will be erected at South Bisbee during the coming year-and that vicinity will soon grow to be de- lightful location for residences.

At Mammoth I learned that I was the first protestant minister who had been in that camp in four years. The report is current in that section and is considered reliable that the En. glish shareholders in the Ray mine have decided to spend a million dollars in development work and preparatory to the production of copper. This con- clusion was reached after the report of the experts who visited the property about a month ago." Speaking of church matters in the territory Rev.

"The rich strike of sulphides on the 73O level at the Spray shaft at dist ance of one hundred and thirty-eight feet is a pretty sight," said s. w.. Clawson, foreman of the mines. The strike is s rich deposit of sulphides and was encountered last week. Mir. Clawson has seen the camp grow from an infant to its present era of prosper ity and activity. During all these years it has been his duty to supply the food for the smelters and reduction works. The REVIEW hopes MT.

A business man who is in on the ground floor at the new town of Doug las, said to a REVIEW reporter this week ''you can either put me down as broke merchant or wealthy dealer in real estate, if the South Western railroad builds into Fl Paso. In that event I want all the town lots in Doug- las 1 can buy. It will be town, sure, in that event. Did you know that the concession of the South Western rail road from the Mexican government called for the completion of the road from Nacosari to the Gulf within five years? Well, that's fact, and the South Western was compelled to put up a heavy bond for the fullfllment of the terms of the concession"

A superintendent of one of the layge mining companies at present opeDdting in this district is in favor of just and equitable bullion tax law. In speak ing of the subject this week he said: "I believe active mines that are produc- ing should pay on the value of their an nual earnings, and after talking with some of the leading mining men of the territory do not believe such a law would be opposed. The bullion tax law which was introduced in the last legis- lature was an unjust bill and would have meant the closing down of some of our largest producers. I know one mining company in Southern Arizona that would have been compelled to pay not less than $60O,0OO if this bill had become law. A just bullion tax law would not be opposed by the bona-tide mining companies of Arizona"
